Chapter 42 Zhao Ji

Hu Feng’s wine shop, Lu Buwei’s residence. Lu Buwei was enjoying the service of the green maid, moaning softly.

"I have met my master." At this moment, Dad Ximen came in and greeted Lu Buwei.

"Dad Ximen, you're back just right." Lu Buwei no longer ignored the usual kindness. He pushed the maid away with a very anxious face and asked, "I want you to find out what I want you to do, can you find out clearly?"

"Report to Master, I've found it out." Mr. Ximen's father looked happy and said loudly, "My master has been widowed for many years and has never married him. He is looking for a beautiful girl who is both talented and beautiful, knowledgeable and polite. Now, there is such a lovely person in Handan City."

"Tell me quickly." Lu Buwei was quite impatient.

"This is the daughter of the powerful Zhao family in Handan. She is very beautiful. Few people can match her. She can sing and dance, know books and rituals, and have a long reputation. Many people come to propose marriages, but they politely declined to her father Zhao Xiong." The father Ximen became more and more excited as he spoke, with a red look on his face and said, "Zhao Xiong said that if there is no wealth in his family, he will not have to come to the door. Therefore, this year, he has never been engaged."

During the Warring States Period, a woman who had never married at the age of 18 was a "leftover woman", which was extremely rare at that time.

"Oh!" Lu Buwei became more interested and said, "Zhao Xiong is so confident. I believe this person must be outstanding. What is the Zhao family background?"

"Although Zhao is a powerful man in Handan, he owns many real estate and real estate shops, the old slave is estimated to be only four or five thousand gold." Dad Ximen seemed to not take Zhao seriously.

"Four or five thousand gold coins can only be the dominant one in Handan. If you look at the world, it will not be even more so. It is not like our Lu family business company, which is famous all over the world, and it is a big businessman in the world." Lu Buwei was very content and said, "Well, what's the name of this?"

"It's called Zhao Ji." Dad Ximen hurriedly reported.

"Ji is beautiful, and those who dare to call him Ji must be extremely beautiful." Lu Buwei made a decision and said, "Prepare a generous gift, I will go to Zhao's house now. If I like it, I will marry him."

Ji, in the Warring States Period, was not a name, but a word of praise for women's beauty, which is equivalent to the current beauty and a word of praise for beauties.

Zhao Ji, in today's terms, is called "Zhao Beauty", not a human name. It's just that because Qin Shihuang's fucking name is not recorded in history books, later generations use words of praise.

The south of Handan City is the industrial and commercial district of Handan. If it is normal, there are people coming and going, and there are endless hawking sounds, and bargaining is a scene. Nowadays, there are few pedestrians and extremely deserted.

There is a house with hundreds of houses, covering a vast area and built in a very grand manner. The plaque of the courtyard contains the words "Zhao Mansion".

This is the location of the powerful Zhao family in Handan.

A tall man with twin manes already appeared in her hair quickly came and greeted Lu Buwei, saying, "I have met Mr. Zhao Xiong. Zhao Xiong dared to ask where is the fairyland of Mr.?"

"In the Puyang clan of the country of Wei, the Lü clan, and the Buwei." Lu Buwei revealed his identity.

During the Warring States Period, men called clans but not surnames. For example, if Qin Yiren wanted to introduce himself, he should say "Ying Yiren" instead of "the surname Ying Yiren".

"But the Lu Family Trading Company..." Zhao Xiong was shocked and his tone was a little high.

Lu Buwei was very satisfied with Zhao Xiong's reaction and smiled and said, "It's Buwei."

"It turns out that it is the big shopkeeper of the Lu Family Trading Company. Please come in quickly, please come in! Open the door and welcome the VIPs. Play music!" Before Zhao Xiong could speak, a man who was a little younger than him, with a smile on his face and shouted.

He is Zhao Xiong's second brother, Zhao Lie.

During the Warring States Period, when guests visited, they had to enter from different doors according to their identity, open the door, and play music to welcome Lu Buwei. This is the highest courtesy.

"In the name of my Lu Family Trading Company, you can't do that." Lu Buwei raised his head and thrust his chest, and entered the room surrounded by the two brothers Zhao Xiong.

After welcoming Lu Buwei into the hall, Zhao Lie hurriedly moved a shorter table, wiped it with his sleeves repeatedly, and asked Lu Buwei to take his seat with a rush.

Zhao Xiong frowned and felt a little unhappy when he saw it. The Lu family's business community is very wealthy, so you can't please him like this, right?

Lu Buwei saw it and was very happy, and Zhao Lie was trying to please him, so he would follow his leader.

Zhao Xiong personally brought the tea, then asked about his purpose, and said, "I wonder if Mr. Lu is in his humble house, what's the point of doing?"

Although the Zhao family is a powerful man in Handan, it is not bad compared to the Lu family trading company. Zhao Xiong was really confused when Lu Buwei suddenly visited.

Although Zhao Lie was very pleased, he was also curious, pricked up his ears and listened quietly.

"Sir, I dare not say anything?" Lu Buwei did not turn around, but said his purpose: "Buwei heard that Zhao had a daughter who was extremely beautiful and could sing and dance, and came to see her reputation."

"Dare you ask me, but you want to marry a niece?" Zhao Lie rushed to ask, his eyes full of wonderful little stars.

The Lu Family Trading Company is a trading company with all its own characteristics. If you can get along with it, you don’t need to think about this benefit. The Zhao family will succeed and become famous all over the world with the east wind of the Lu Family Trading Company.

"If you like it, it's okay." Lu Buwei nodded reservedly and said, "Buwei has been widowed for many years and has never married him because he has never liked a woman."

This is not to raise his own value. His identity is already high enough and he doesn't need to raise it anymore. With his eyes, he will not be attracted by his stunning beauty.

"Sir, I heard that although the little girl has a little reputation, she is arrogant and willful, and she may not be like the teacher." Zhao Xiong was a little dissatisfied with Zhao Lie, so he glanced at him, and then said to Lu Buwei.

"Brother, what are you talking about? My niece is born with beauty and is so beautiful. Only people like Mr. Lu can match it. Please ask your niece." Zhao Lie shouted loudly.

That is my daughter, not yours, okay? Zhao Xiong was extremely dissatisfied with Zhao Lie's decision without authorization, but the matter was over, so he had to say, "Please invite the lady."

"No!" The servant left.

Zhao Lie smiled and pleased Lu Buwei and said, "Mr. Lu, please rest assured. If my niece doesn't like her, Zhao doesn't know who else in the world can catch her eyes on her?"

Although these words were to please, they were filled with a strong sense of confidence. Zhao Xiong raised his head. As a father, he was proud of his daughter and his face was full of joy.

"Is it really amazing?" Lu Buwei saw the actions of the two, and was very excited.

The sound of small footsteps sounded, and a tall and beautiful girl came gracefully, as smart as a flower and butterfly.

"Bang!" Lu Buwei just glanced at him and stood up suddenly. He didn't know that the teacup in his hand hit the ground, and exclaimed loudly: "What awesome! That's awesome!"

It seems that this kind of praise is still insufficient, so I chanted loudly: "Add one part is too long, and a bit less is too short; a piece of pink is too white, and a piece of red is too red. The eyebrows are like green feathers, the skin is like white snow, the waist is like plain, and the teeth are like shells. A smile makes me confused Yangcheng and confuse me." This is a famous line from Qu Yuan's student, Song Yu, a literary master of Chu, who was very famous at that time.

"It's true celestial being! It's true celestial being!" Lu Buwei's mouth widened. Even with his numerous experiences of reading women, he was still confused by Zhao Ji's style, and a shiny liquid flowed out of the corner of his mouth.
