Chapter 144 Meeting
Chapter 144 Meeting
Thinking back to when I traveled through time, I was with Lao Gao. Could it be that the treasure box not only brought me here, but also brought Lao Gao to the Qin Dynasty?
Thinking of this, he asked Liu Ji anxiously: "Do you know who is the cook in this mansion?"
Liu Ji was stunned. Why was he asking a cook this question? Sure enough, people with poor brains also have unusual qualities.
"How would I know? The Lu family has only been in Pei County for a short time. How could I know so much?" Liu Ji shook his head and said this, then buried his head in eating.
However, Yi Xiaochuan was in no mood to eat at the moment, and he looked extremely anxious: "Brother Liu, since you brought me here, you must know the owner of this family. Please introduce him to me. I have something very important to ask him."
"Oh my! You are such a jerk!" Liu Ji felt helpless. He couldn't even eat his meal in peace.
What's more, he asked me to help introduce him. I know wool yarn, but in order not to lose face, I could only bite the bullet and said impatiently: "Okay, come with me."
"Hey! Okay, thanks, bro!"
Yi Xiaochuan hurriedly followed.
The two men came before Lü Gong, and Liu Ji bowed deeply and said, "Liu Ji, the head of Sishui Pavilion in Pei County, greets Lü Gong."
There is no choice. If I don’t say this, people will know me.
Seeing Liu Ji's slovenly appearance, Lu Gong couldn't help but frown, but he would not lose his manners with so many people present: "Um... I wonder what Master Liu is doing?"
Yi Xiaochuan couldn't wait any longer. Without waiting for Liu Ji to reply, he stepped forward and said, "I am Yi Xiaochuan, and I have met Mr. Lu. I just want to ask who your chef is. This matter is very important to me. I have no intention of offending you. Please tell me, Mr. Lu."
"Cook?" Lu Gong asked in confusion.
"Yes, the chef in this mansion is most likely an old acquaintance of mine." Yi Xiaochuan said.
After hearing this, Lu Gong understood. His son-in-law met Gao Yao after seeing these dishes. He thought it was the same for this young man.
"Oh, okay. I'll have someone take you to see him right away." Lu Gong called over a servant.
"Thank you!" Yi Xiaochuan said to Liu Ji again: "Brother Liu, I'll be back soon."
"Oh, okay, go ahead and don't worry about me." Liu Ji thought to himself that he really ran into an old friend, but he didn't know if he would become another scapegoat.
Zhang Haoran naturally saw all of this, but he just ignored it and let them go.
Even if my identity as a time traveler is exposed, it won't have any impact.
After Yi Xiaochuan found Gao Yao, the two of them inevitably cried to each other.
Afterwards, just as Zhang Haoran guessed, Gao Yao told Yi Xiaochuan that he was a time traveler.
Yi Xiaochuan was also surprised after hearing this, and then asked Gao Yao to follow him, saying that he had found a powerful backer who would help him rise to prominence.
However, what surprised Yi Xiaochuan was that Gao Yao not only did not agree, but also advised him not to follow Liu Ji.
The reason for this was that when Zhang Haoran went to Fan Kuai's place to eat dog meat yesterday and met Liu Ji, Gao Yao asked curiously.
Zhang Haoran then told him about Liu Bang's deeds.
Now Gao Yao also understood Liu Bang's character, so he told Yi Xiaochuan not to follow him and asked him to stay here with him.
However, Yi Xiaochuan did not listen to him and insisted on following Liu Bang.
Gao Yao had no choice. He would not go anyway. It was not safe to wander around outside instead of staying in one place. Besides, he had his fellow villagers here to take care of him.
After coming out, Yi Xiaochuan came to Zhang Haoran calmly.
Zhang Haoran saw him coming over and said with a smile: "It seems that Gao Yao has already told you about me."
Yi Xiaochuan had a complicated look on his face, thinking how come this guy was more handsome than himself, and nodded: "Yes, I just want to tell you not to mess around in this era, otherwise we might disappear because of this."
Zhang Haoran smiled and thought, I don’t know whether you will disappear or not, but I will not disappear anyway, because we don’t belong to the same time and space.
"You'd better take care of yourself. It seems like you're determined to follow Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang? Be careful or he might sell you out without you even noticing." Zhang Haoran said.
"You don't have to worry about that. I have already recognized him as my elder brother. When he becomes successful, will he not help me?" Yi Xiaochuan became even more arrogant.
"Haha, okay, it's up to you, just take care of yourself." Zhang Haoran sneered in his heart, you will regret it one day.
Don’t you think that someone who can rise from a gangster to the supreme position in the world can be an easy person to deal with?
It's a pity that he is from later generations. Doesn't he know the saying that when the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked? Even figures like Han Xin and Zhang Liang are not spared. Who the hell does he think Yi Xiaochuan is?
Zhang Haoran didn't say much, just waited to see his show.
For the next period of time, Zhang Haoran started to make preparations in advance.
The three servants who had escaped from the bandits were taken back by him.
The three of them were already grateful to Zhang Haoran, otherwise they would not be alive today. Moreover, he was particularly kind to them and now he has become their son-in-law.
In this age where people work for whoever gives them food, it is natural that they will follow their lives.
So Zhang Haoran feels at ease using them.
For this purpose, he specially taught them martial arts. It didn't matter if they lacked talent or their bones were already formed, he had plenty of ways to help them.
Previously, the system had even opened a system mall, where ordinary supplies and the earliest elixirs for strengthening physical fitness could all be purchased with gold.
One hundred taels of gold per piece, absolutely worth the money! !
Even without these, he could use his spiritual power to open up their meridians. But he didn't do that.
He just gave each of them five strength pills and physical fitness pills, and taught them some martial arts, which was enough for them.
He took them to a nearby bandits' den and quickly took care of them.
Those who had not done anything evil were subdued. Dozens of women were rescued, and those who wanted to go home were allowed to go home, and those who had no home were allowed to stay and they were given food.
Use this as a base and let them recruit on their own. This is the only way in the early stages. Just ask them to be careful.
In fact, he didn't need to go through so much trouble. He could just call the four women and the ghost babies to slaughter them and be done with it.
The difficult part is what to do after the killing. After all, this world needs people to maintain order and manage it.
We can't let those spirit babies manage it, that would be a joke.
Therefore, he had to build up his own power. When people in various parts of the Qin Dynasty rose up in rebellion, it would be his time to compete for supremacy over the world.
