"Nephew, you have a point. However, Cao Mengde is a good drinker. How can you not be greeted with wine when you come to my place? Bring me my donkey."
While Lu Er was leading the donkey, Lu Boshe called over a few servants and gave them some instructions. Then, Cao Cao and Sun Tong began to bathe and wash up under the care of the servants.
Previously, when Sun Tong transmigrated over, he had directly entered the prison. Not long after he came out of the prison, he met Cao Cao. The two of them had no chance to enter the city and rested in the wilderness.
This time, Sun Tong finally had a chance to see the architecture of this era.
Due to the influence of the TV series in his previous life, Sun Tong initially thought that Lu Boshe was just a straightforward local tycoon. At most, he was just a village chief.
However, after entering the Lu Residence, he saw the spacious roads, neat houses, and the watchtowers that he saw at the beginning. Now, he knew what the place where the local tyrants lived in this era looked like.
Thinking about how the two of them had walked all the way here, the outside world was filled with hungry people. Countless people had no choice but to exchange their children for food. Even the weeds and bark on the roadside had been eaten clean.
In comparison, the Lu Family Residence was like a paradise, a paradise on earth.
However, thinking back, if Lu Boshe's Lu family did not have this much wealth, how could they have become sworn brothers with Cao Song? He was an official.
Compared to Sun Tong, Cao Cao bathed much faster. After returning to the guest room, he heard someone sharpening a knife outside.
However, compared to the original novel, Cao Cao did not think too much about it this time. Perhaps this was the difference between having bodyguards and not having bodyguards.
If the nearly 100 Western Liang soldiers at the gate of Luoyang City could not stop Sun Tong, how could the servants of the Lu Residence be his match? If there was really a problem, Sun Tong would probably be able to deal with these people in a few rounds.
In fact, Sun Tong also wanted to finish washing up quickly. After all, he was not used to the few maids standing beside him.
However, he had stayed in prison for so long and then escaped with Cao Cao. He had no time to take care of himself. He could not take it anymore. Previously, he even realized that there were lice on his head. One could imagine how devastated he was.
Now that he had a chance to take a comfortable hot bath, he would definitely not give up if he did not wash himself clean.
This bath lasted for two hours. When he arrived at the guest room under the guidance of the maid, Cao Cao was already waiting there.
"It's my fault for making you wait.”
Previously, Sun Tong had a disheveled appearance, so Cao Cao had always thought that Sun Tong was definitely burly.
Who would have thought that the part-time job would become a different person after all this?
"I really didn't expect that not only is my brother's martial arts extraordinary, but his appearance is also so extraordinary.”
Sun Tong's handsome appearance was indeed out of Cao Cao's expectations. However, it was good to be handsome. Although Cao Cao's appearance was not good, it was good to have a handsome younger brother now. In the future, he would be able to make a name for himself.
The two of them waited in the guest room for a while. At this time, the banquet in the manor was ready. When Lu Boshe returned with good wine from the county town, he came to invite the two of them to sit.
"Comfortable. Why are there so many Ding Jia in the manor?”
After three rounds of wine, Cao Cao inadvertently raised his question.
"Sigh, the world is like this. I have to prepare for the rainy day to protect myself.”
"Why did you come to this? With uncle's reputation, would that little Chenggao County Magistrate dare to make things difficult for you? Why would you let Shu Fu raise Ding Jia who is counting money?”
In fact, it was inevitable that Cao Cao would find it strange. After all, although the world was in chaos, Chenggao County was originally in the hinterland of the Central Plains. Whether it was the government or bandits, the scale of this place was not too large. There was no need for Uncle Lu to support so many people.
"This old man is not guarding against the county magistrate, but a group of thieves has recently fled to the west of Chenggao County. There are nearly ten thousand thieves in that group. I asked people to inquire about it. The leader is called Guan Hai, the original commander of the Yellow Turban thieves. His subordinates are all remnants of the Yellow Turban thieves.”
Hearing Lu Boshe mention Guan Hai's name, Sun Tong's eyes immediately lit up. However, he did not notice that Cao Cao's expression had also changed.
He hadn't forgotten how the system obtained power points. Sun Tong himself couldn't say exactly what level Guan Hai was at, but he was still able to leave his name in the history books. His name had also appeared several times in various games of the Three Kingdoms in the future.
No matter what, the other party had delivered himself to his doorstep. How could he let go of this small amount of money?
After speaking of Sun Tong, he spoke of Cao Cao. As a master who would not wake up early without benefits, if he did not have his own little calculations in his heart, he would not have bothered to care about how many Ding Jia were placed in the Lu Family Residence. It had nothing to do with him.
Ever since he left Luoyang, Boss Cao had always wanted to do something big. However, he was not the Duke of Wei he had been in the past.
Therefore, Boss Cao, who was wholeheartedly devoted to the Han Dynasty, wanted to gather a team of people and attack Luoyang to capture and kill the thief Dong and help the Han Dynasty.
Becoming sworn brothers with Sun Tong was a solid step for him to realize his ambition, but Sun Tong alone was definitely not enough. In his opinion, whether Sun Tong could defeat Lu Bu was still unknown, not to mention that Dong Zhuo still had so many elite soldiers under him.
Lu Boshe was a powerful man in Chenggao County, and his family was quite wealthy. Looking at the thousands of soldiers, they only lacked a little training. As long as the training was increased, they could become a strong army.
