Chapter 279 Grandfather, I plan to replace the weapons for the Qilin Guards
Lu Yu nodded and said, "You also know the current situation outside. It is impossible to bring the child over to raise him. You will have to worry about it."
"Also, let Lin Ruquan choose the child's name himself. You are not allowed to interfere."
Lin Rufeng smiled and said, "Since I have been adopted by my eldest brother, it is natural for him to give me the name."
He paused for a moment and then said, "Miss, if my brother asks about adopting a child, can you just say that you made the decision?"
Lu Yu's eyes widened when he heard this. What did that mean? Why was she the one making the decision?
Didn’t the two brothers reach an agreement?
"Explain yourself!"
Lin Rufeng explained, "Miss, I mentioned the adoption to my eldest brother eight years ago, but he didn't agree."
Lu Yu didn't say anything, just listened to him quietly.
"Big brother doesn't agree, but I can't let him lose his incense after a hundred years."
"So, even if I have to force him to give me a son, I have to force him to give me a son."
"Does Lu Ping know?" Lu Yu asked.
Lin Rufeng nodded, "I know, and I'm willing to do it."
What he didn't say was that Lu Ping knew the reason why her elder brother didn't get married, and Lu Ping was very grateful.
She has no martial arts skills and cannot protect the young lady well, but Lin Ruquan can.
Not to mention giving up just one son to repay the favor, he wouldn't even blink an eye even if all his children were adopted out.
Lu Yu was in deep thought. Although Lin Ruquan did not agree to adopt him, no one knew whether he really did not want to or was just trying to refuse.
It would be better to follow Lin Rufeng's suggestion and say that I will make the decision myself to see how he reacts.
If he strongly refuses, then forget it. If he has any hesitation, then persuade him to acknowledge the child.
"Okay, I understand. When I get back, I'll tell him that I made the decision." Lu Yu looked at Lin Rufeng, "But if he still strongly refuses, then forget it."
"Thank you very much, young lady!"
Lin Rufeng was overjoyed. He thought that his elder brother would definitely agree. Although they, the people in the underworld, did not have as huge a fortune to inherit as the powerful and wealthy families,
But they have their own unique skills to pass on, and no one wants to have no one to inherit their skills.
It was already morning in Qiancheng after Lu Yu left. She did not ride a mountain bike, but used Qinggong to travel quickly.
He returned to Gunzhou at the beginning of the evening at 11:00 p.m. and ran all the way to the mansion. When he turned a corner and entered the alley, he saw two people standing at the door.
She laughed. It was Lin Ruquan and Uncle Zhong.
Seeing Lu Yu, Lin Ruquan leaped in front of her and asked impatiently, "Miss, where have you been?"
Seeing his worried look, Lu Yu reflected on herself, she had been used to being alone for so many years and had lost the habit of saying hello.
In the past, Lin Ruquan always followed her, so naturally he had never encountered a situation where he didn't know where she was.
This time I came back thinking it was a mess and didn't even think of saying hello, which made him worry.
"Sorry, I forgot to tell you that I went to Houqian City to get weapons."
"Miss, you don't have to apologize. It was my subordinate who crossed the line."
Lu Yu smiled awkwardly. He was still angry, but it was okay. Just remember to tell him next time.
Arriving at the door, Uncle Zhong looked Lu Yu up and down, and seeing that she was fine, he smiled and said, "The Duke is still awake, Miss Lu Yu, why don't you go and see him?"
"Well, it just so happens that I have something to tell Grandfather."
Knowing that Lu Yu had returned safely, Lin Ruquan went to Lu Qingshan's yard to guard it again. He felt guilty towards Lu Qingshan and could only do his best to protect his safety.
Lu Yu followed Uncle Zhong to his grandfather's yard. Lu Jingmo let go of his bad intentions when he saw that Lu Yu was safe and sound.
"Nothing is wrong, go and have a rest."
As soon as they met, Lu Jingmo looked at Lu Yu and said this.
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, then she understood what was going on. It turned out that her grandfather was worried about her, and Uncle Zhong asked her to come just to reassure her grandfather.
Lu Yu had something else to say, so he didn't leave. "Grandfather, Xiao Yuer has something to tell you."
Lu Jingmo pointed to the round stool in the room and said, "Sit down and talk."
Lu Yu also knew that it was getting late and he couldn't delay his grandfather's rest, so he didn't say anything and said directly: "Grandfather, Xiao Yu'er plans to replace the weapons of all the Qilin Guards."
"It's just that after the war, they need to be returned and will be distributed again when there is another war."
You must always keep sharp weapons in your hands. When training without war, you can still use the original weapons.
When Lu Jingmo heard this, his first reaction was that the weapon Xiaoyuer was talking about was probably a musket.
Such a large number of sharp weapons cannot remain in the hands of others forever. It is right to take them back after the war.
"Can!"
Lu Yu immediately had a knife in his hand, "Grandfather, what do you think of this weapon?"
Lu Jingmo was shocked. He was a martial artist and also a troop leader. He had come into contact with many weapons and knew a lot about them.
As soon as the knife came out, he felt a frightening chill. He stood up and was surprised when he saw it in Lu Yu's hand. It was so light.
In the past, weapons were very heavy, but during the time of the previous emperor, better forging methods were developed, and weapons have become much lighter.
But this knife is lighter than the one modified by the previous emperor.
Thinking of something, he was overjoyed, "Xiao Yu'er, have you found a new forging method?"
Lu Yu shook his head, "There is no new forging method, just different forging materials."
Hearing this, Lu Jingmo was not too disappointed. He sat down next to Lu Yu and asked, "What material is this knife made of?"
Lu Yu did not hide anything and told him directly, "It is a special mineral under the Wancong Mountain. I didn't know what it was called before, but after we discovered it, we named it Mist Stone."
"Mist stone?" Lu Jingmo chewed on these two words, and suddenly his eyes widened, "Xiao Yu'er, could this mineral be related to the mist in Wancong Mountain?"
"Grandfather is really smart!" Lu Yu gave a thumbs up, "That's right, the fog in Wancong Mountain is all emitted by this ore underground."
Hearing this, Lu Jingmo tapped the table with his fingers and thought. This kind of mineral is very good, but Wancong Mountain is protected by poisonous fog. If it is over-mined, will the poisonous fog disappear in the end?
Then Qiancheng will be in danger.
He was just about to ask something when Uncle Zhong came over with a tray of fruit drinks and pastries.
After serving the tea, he quietly retreated to the door and stood guard.
With this interruption, Lu Jingmo stopped worrying. Xiao Yuer must have known such a simple truth a long time ago.
Knowing that mining can continue means that you have a plan in mind.
"Grandfather, I plan to replace the 296,000 Qilin Guards with these swords or guns."
"As for the remaining 4,000 men, all will be issued muskets. Please select the candidates carefully, Grandfather."
Lu Yu stuffed a cake into his mouth, swallowed it with rapid movements of his mouth, then took a big gulp of the fruit drink, his face turning paler and paler.
Lu Jingmo reached out and rubbed her back, "Eat slowly, don't rush."
Lu Yu also patted his chest and finally swallowed it.
"Grandfather, there is one more thing. I plan to wait for you to send out your troops, and then Xiao Yuer will lead the army to move."
