Journey To the West From The Qin Dynasty

Former residence of Li Jue.

At this time, it was already overcrowded, and the people who came to visit were either rich or expensive.

And Li Jue greeted everyone with a smile, and what he said at the beginning was also fulfilled, because there were too many people coming and going, so he didn't have time to continue chatting with Niu San's family.

However, he has arranged for Niu San to be his gatekeeper in the temple outside Xianyang City, which can be regarded as a good place for Niu San, and he will have more opportunities to meet in the future.

Two hours later.

Li Jue still sent Ying Zheng and many dignitaries away, but his yard was already full of gifts, and the kitchen was also full of ingredients.

Some maidservants were also arranged for him to call in the former residence, and the number of guards outside the gate was also doubled.

Niu San's family did not leave, but stayed here to help Li Jue and take care of his daily life.

But Niu San himself is a relatively clumsy person, he can't even cook rice on weekdays, and he can't take care of Li Jue's daily life at all.

Only his wife, Niu Wang, cooks well, and even his two sons and daughters are good helpers in the kitchen.

But even Niu Wang's mother and son were dumbfounded when they saw the mountains of ingredients, because these things were so rare.

Many precious ingredients were never seen before the Niu Wang family's family fortune, and they were just heard of.

There are also many precious medicinal materials used to make medicated diets, even elixir, which have never been heard of or seen before.

Niu Wang was stunned for a moment, and didn't know how to start.

But at this time, a beautiful woman appeared outside the door. This person was the second sister Hu Man whom I hadn't seen for a long time.

Hu Man used to be the second sister of the prison in Dongcheng District, but later the Hu family found her and asked her to go back and inherit hundreds of millions of wealth. Now she is the female shopkeeper of the Hu family.

Because she is strong enough, and her ability is also very outstanding, and she has some colleagues with Li Jue, so she often has business dealings with the royal family.

Now the entire Hu family is already the leading wealthy businessman in the Great Qin Empire, and Hu Man can even be called the richest woman in the Great Qin Empire.

The previous richest woman in Daqin was the famous Ba Qing, who was also inextricably linked with the Daqin royal family.

They were personally entertained by Emperor Yingzheng, and it is said that they still have some unspeakable love for each other.

Now that Ba Qing has already left Hexi, the whole family is still the top wealthy businessman in Daqin, but the Hu family has now come from behind.

Except for a very few rich merchants supported by Lu Buwei, Zhao Gao, Li Si, the Meng family, and the Wang family and other meritorious families, the Hu family can be said to be the first-class wealthy merchant family in the world.

Today's Hu Man is still dignified and beautiful, but after 10 years, the little girl in the past has been more weathered and looks more mature.

The only thing that remains the same is that the eyes looking at Li Jue are still full of admiration and admiration.

When Li Jue saw Hu Man, he smiled slightly, "It's been a long time, Xiao Hu. I never thought that you have grown up to be so graceful. Seeing that your life is so rich, I feel relieved."

Hu Man's eyes were full of tears, and his eyes were already red, "Li... my lord, my servant Hu Man, I have seen my lord."

Li Jue was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Hu Man to be so close to him, but he still smiled and waved.

"There is no need to be so polite between you and me. Are you married after many years?"

Hu Man shook her head, "My family has made an oath not to marry in this life."

Li Jue was stunned, as if he didn't expect Hu Man to make such an oath, and he didn't understand why he didn't marry.

After all, Hu Man is over 30 years old, she is already considered an old woman at this age, and even her son has married a wife.

Seeing Hu Man's eyes, Li Jue seemed to understand something.

But he didn't make any promises, because human beings have different paths, and Hu Man's talent is not as good as Yu Ji's, but he can give Hu Man some fairy fate and let her practice immortality.

However, Pingjian Hu Man's talent probably has no chance of becoming a fairy. If he is forced to promote, at most he will reach the ninth level of a real person.

At that time, one or two hundred years might have passed, even if she was given a new life, she would not be able to live for 800 years before breaking the seal of heaven and becoming a fairy.

In the end, it was nothing to fetch water from a bamboo basket.

Moreover, Li Jue could tell that Hu Man was very attached to his family. After all, he was raised by the Hu family since he was a child, so after returning to the family, he yearned for the family very much.

Therefore, I have been devoting my youth and energy to the Hu family all these years.

Li Jue didn't intend to spend all his energy to support Hu Man, after all, everyone has their own destiny.

Hu Man chose the family and he chose to cultivate immortals. The two had different paths.

But Li Jue can give Hu Man an elixir, so that her face will last forever, until she dies of old age, and she can live for decades.

And raising her strength to one or two realms, although it can't prolong her life, it can resist many open and hidden arrows.

After all, if the family is so powerful, it will definitely encounter a lot of troubles. Although Hu Man does business with the royal family, there are still many risks.

These risks are unavoidable for the Hu family, so they can only rely on their own strong strength to avoid them.

Li Jue asked Hu Man to take a seat, took out an elixir and explained the reason, but Hu Man took it directly without hesitation.

Her strength has also reached the fourth level of a real person, and this level is one level higher than that of Niu San.

And such a cultivation level is considered rare in the entire Great Qin. As long as you don't meet those super masters, dozens of ordinary rangers, or hundreds of people, can't get close.

And Hu Man also felt that her appearance seemed to have become more beautiful, her skin had become firmer, and her figure had even become taller.

She knew that the elixir that Li Jue asked her to take could increase her lifespan and strength.

Li Jue also passed on to Hu Man the kung fu practiced by Guiguzi, as well as some light kung fu skills and the powerful swordsmanship.

These are Hu Man's cards and life-saving methods, and Li Jue also said that these things can be passed on.

However, Hu Man has secretly decided that these things will not be disclosed until she takes them into the coffin.

And Hu Man is full of admiration for Li Jue, but she also knows that it is absolutely impossible to be with Li Jue.

Therefore, the full of love can only be reduced to one sentence, "My lord, I will cook a meal for you."

Li Jue nodded, and Hu Man went down to talk.

After returning to the Hu family, Hu Man hardly had the opportunity to cook, only when he was with Li Jue, did he have the opportunity to help in the kitchen.

Under the influence of ears and eyes, I also learned some things.

In addition, although I have never eaten pork, I have seen pigs running. The Hu family has a big business, and Hu Man has eaten countless delicacies from mountains and seas in the past 10 years.

And because of the influence of Li Jue's love for food in the past, when he ate some delicious food, he would just ask the chef how to make it.

Although I have never done it myself, I know it well.

Now that I see the ingredients everywhere, I already have some ideas for dishes, and I want Niu Wang to help me.

soon.

Under the leadership of Hu Man, Niu Wang and some maidservants worked together, and a table of delicious food was finished.

Li Jue was sitting in his seat, but Niu San and the others were really unwilling to take a seat, they were very cramped.

Li Jue feigned anger and said, "Do you think that I can share adversity, not riches and honours? In the past, I started in the humble beginnings, and you never left me. Now I am above the nine heavens. I can't take you through the clouds, but I can also be with you." Let's drink together at the same table."

Then he forced Niu San's children to sit beside him, and made Hu Man Niu San and Niu Wang to sit down quickly. If he didn't listen, he would never come back here again.

The few people sat down now, and at the same time, a warm current gushed out from their hearts.

From Li Jue's conversation with them, they felt the familiarity of the past. Li Jue was still Xiao Qi, the executioner of the past, and he was not arrogant or condescending because of his noble status.

After three rounds of wine, five tastes of food, everyone at the dinner table also felt Li Jue's sincerity, and it was only when they gradually relaxed their hearts that the strangeness between them and Li Jue faded a lot.

Because of this, Li Jue asked about his old friend.

"Third brother, no matter how you say it, you have some strength, and you have also made great contributions to Daqin, and even achieved the position of pavilion chief. Even if you have evil spirits in your body, you shouldn't be so miserable."

Niu San let out a long sigh. Now that he had obtained Li Jue's elixir, he had already recovered his former youthful and majestic body.

But a heart has long been unable to restore the unrestrained and boldness of the past, and I can't help but sigh when I mention the past.

Niu San shook his head, not wanting to bring up the past.

It was the daughter next to him, Sha Niu, Tong Yan Wuji said: "Because Daddy said that he and Uncle are brothers, so he was warned by the government. It was the bearded official who didn't allow us to mention our relationship with Uncle, so we stopped talking about it." Dad's duties and subsidies."
