    With Wu Guogui, Wu Sangui's adopted son and confidant watching, Wang Fuchen said that he would not interfere with Qujing's local government affairs disputes, so he didn't dare to break his promise to get rich, and he didn't intercede for Li Shizu again.  He didn't even take a bite of the meal, and walked away after saying goodbye, leaving Wang Fuchen at home to entertain Fatty Lu and his gang of bad guys.  As a result, Wang Fuchen inevitably got a little angry, "Damn it, why are you slapping me? Can you blame me for this? Fatty Lu is also very interesting. After losing so much money, he didn't even say a word, and even took the initiative to come here."  Ask me if I want to let him go, if Wu Guogui and the other brothers were not present, would this happen?"

    Dissatisfaction turned into dissatisfaction. After the banquet started, Wang Fuchen, who was fond of drinking and gambling, quickly put the matter behind him and dragged Wu Guogui, Wang Jing, Fatty Lu and others to eat and drink. Although Fatty Lu was not good at drinking,  But I barely drank a few cups. Generally speaking, talking with Wang Fuchen was quite pleasant. Wu Guogui has a calm personality but doesn't like to drink.  liquor.  On the contrary, Wang Fuchen's deputy, Yunnan Deputy General Wang Jing, and Fatty Lu hit it off right away¡ªa casino fat sheep as straightforward and generous as Fatty Lu was hard to find. He dragged Fatty Lu to drink a lot of wine, and Fatty Lu continued to gamble.

    "Brother Lu, come, let's have another bowl." Regardless of Wu Guogui's dissuasion, Wang Jing filled another bowl of wine for Fatty Lu, and said with a smile, "After drinking this bowl, let's set up another table and continue playing Pai Gow.  It doesn't matter if you have money, I will lend it to you, anyway, I'm not afraid of you running away, so I can borrow as much as you want."

    "Second brother Wang, brother, I really can't do it." Fatty Lu covered his head and said with a mournful face: "Brother, my drinking capacity is really too bad. On the day of the Chinese New Year last month, brother only drank two drinks.  The jug of wine got drunk on the spot and turned over there, making a big ugly. Also, I have to wait a while to play money. Brother, I have to serve the yellow-faced woman and read books when I go back. I have to go to the city tomorrow to inspect the spring plowing and handle  Official business, after this period of time has passed, brother, I will take a good gamble to pay second brother Wang."

    "Is there a book to watch? The yellow-faced woman can't serve that day, so she must go back to serve every night?" Wang Jing, who was already drunk, held Fatty Lu and yelled: "Play with the second brother for two more  When it's time, Second Brother invites you to go shopping at the kiln, there are still some good women in Qujing City."

    "Second brother Wang doesn't know something. Brother, I married that yellow-faced woman with a lot of background and a big temper. Brother, I really can't afford to provoke him." Fatty Lu sighed, and finally regretted why he married such a vicious woman back home.  .  At the end, Fatty Lu took the opportunity to tell another reason for coming here, and said: "As for whether the book is read or not¡ªSecond brother Wang, have you ever heard that there is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book?  Brother, I have studied Western knowledge intensively, and recently found a way to make a fortune, and I am planning to start a business, I wonder if Second Brother Wang is interested in participating in it?"

    "Make a fortune?" Wang Jing's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Brother Lu, what is the way to make a fortune? Tell me quickly and listen."

    "Second Brother Wang, have you ever seen a Western glazed mirror (glass mirror)?" Fatty Lu gestured and said, "Brother, I have seen a glazed mirror as big as half a palm once in the Pingxi Palace and the Imperial Palace.  It can be sold for several thousand taels of silver, brother, I consulted Western books, and I know how to make this thing, I want to make it in Qujing, and then transport it to the south of the Yangtze River and the capital to sell it, a lot of money."

    The earliest glass mirrors were made by Venetian merchants in the 14th century with the tin-mercury method. The price was extremely expensive. A small amount of finished products flowed into China, and the price was even more priceless. Wang Jing had to miss such a mirror once, of course.  Know the value of this thing.  Hearing Fatty Lu's words now, Wang Jing's eyes widened immediately, and he exclaimed, "Brother Lu, do you really know how to make Western glazed mirrors? Can you make them in Qujing, a place where rabbits don't shit?"

    "Of course, the raw materials are available in Qujing, and I also know two ways to make glazed mirrors." Fatty Lu nodded seriously, and said, "Second Brother Wang, the most troublesome thing about making this kind of mirror is that it takes a long time.  Even if all the materials are ready, it will take more than a month. Now that Qujing is plowing in the spring again, brother, I really can¡¯t find people to make this glazed mirror. So brother, I want to invite second brother to partner with you. You can send some people and lend me some troops.  The craftsmen here, I donate the skills and capital to make this thing, and we share the money we earn.¡±

    "Of course." Fatty Lu added, "Even if it can't be made, I will pay for the craftsmen you lend me, Second Brother Wang, and I won't make it hard for you, Second Brother Wang."

    "Then it's settled." As soon as Wang Jing heard about the good news, he slapped the table and said, "I'm in charge of building weapons, and I have some craftsmen in my hands. I haven't fought wars for a few years, and raising them for nothing is nothing.  wroteA good man like you, volunteered to be his grandson-in-law for Old Traitor Wu, how could he not agree?  "

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Note: Many friends must be surprised. Isn¡¯t the famous Eight-faced Guanyin Wu Sangui¡¯s concubine?  How did she become Wu Sangui's granddaughter?  In fact, the Eight-faced Avalokitesvara in history is the daughter of Wu Sangui's adoptive son Wu Guogui, who married another Wu Sangui's confidant Guo Zhuangtu as his daughter-in-law.  After Wu Sangui died of illness, the Yunnan-Guizhou army fought on their own, and was defeated by the Qing army one by one. Kunming was besieged in September because of the lack of food.

    At this time, the nemesis of Cai Yurong, the old traitor, came, Liu Yi's concubine¡ªthe Four-faced Avalokitesvara!  Xiao Mazi was sent to Beijing by the Qing army to present it to Xiao Mazi. Xiao Mazi was shocked by her beauty and asked: "How many people look like you?"  When the news spread to Yunnan, the old traitor Cai, who had only been the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou for a few days, immediately hanged the eight-faced Avalokitesvara who was two months pregnant, but Xiao Mazi still arrested the old traitor Cai and his family and sent them to Heilongjiang to serve as an army.

    The above are accurately recorded in historical materials such as "Ping Wu Lu", "Wear and See Ou Lu", "A Brief History of San Francisco" and "Drafts of Qing History. Biography of Cai Yurong".  Falling on the head of Wu Sangui who almost overthrew Xiaomazi, adding makeup to their master¡ªof course, Wu Sangui deserved what he deserved, and he could have the same fate as Lu Wende, the Great Wall of the Southern Song Dynasty who resisted the invasion of foreign races. Wu Sangui can also laugh.  (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please visit www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
