Lü Shu listened quietly to the passersby chatting at the breakfast stalls. He felt a little melancholic. Why did the entire capital think that he was the one who eliminated Duanmu Yun'ai and Ding Qiushui? Did they have any evidence to prove it?!
However, the problem was that neither the people of the capital nor the candidates from the Jianlu Selection knew him very well.
Right now, Lü Shu's image in everyone's eyes was that of an expert, the best of the best. He was so arrogant that he would challenge the most powerful candidates on the leaderboard one by one.
Therefore, they thought that Lü Shu was challenging the candidates according to the leaderboard. That was why this happened. As a result, the eliminated second-class candidate was overlooked. Many people didn't know that he was eliminated by Lü Shu.
However, for Lü Shu, he just wanted to make some plans. When he went to look for these people, he really didn't plan to eliminate them …
"Have you found a pattern?" Lü Xiaoyu looked at Yi Qian.
Yi Qian was stunned. "What pattern?"
Lü Xiaoyu said calmly, "All the Jianlu Selection candidates that Lü Shu has seen are eliminated 100% … It's useless for them to buy the leaderboard. They should be praying that Lü Shu doesn't see them …"
Yi Qian said, "… That seems to be the case. You know Boss well."
Yi Qian suddenly realized that Lü Xiaoyu was a little happy after he said that. He heard Lü Xiaoyu say to Yi Qian, "Yi Qian, you have a pair of eyes that are good at discovering things!"
Yi Qian was speechless.
"What are you guys talking about?" Lü Shu had already thought it through. He turned to Lü Xiaoyu and said, "I think that if they really start buying the leaderboard, we can choose how to take the money after observing for a day. After all, I'm not eliminating people according to the leaderboard."
"Boss, how do you plan to eliminate them?" Yi Qian asked curiously.
"Of course, whoever has the highest odds will be eliminated …" Lü Shu said matter-of-factly.
After a rough calculation, Lü Shu's money could be exchanged for 4,500 sets of magic artifacts and armors. Of course, this did not include the money Wu Weijun earned from selling the soap.
Lü Shu felt that although the casino business could earn a few dollars, there weren't many opportunities. It was a business that could be stopped after one round. After all, the leeks had been harvested, they still had to wait for them to grow.
However, Wu Weijun's soap business was a long-term business. Nowadays, all the big and small merchants were coming to Nangeng City. This was equivalent to a popular product, and everyone wanted to make some money from it.
Therefore, the soap business was no less than his earnings from the gambling den.
In order to attract those merchants, Lü Shu also put in a lot of effort. First, he improved the infrastructure of Nangeng City to ensure the merchants' food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Many people didn't know the purpose of Wu Weijun's action, but now they slowly realized that when the supporting facilities such as inns, carriages, gambling dens, and taverns were built, the merchants liked to come here even more!
Not only that, Nangeng City also attracted many merchants from other places to invest in the entertainment industry. The whole city was thriving now, and the tax revenue alone was much higher than before.
The whole city was paved with bluestone, and it was much cleaner than before. There were people cleaning the streets every day, and there was a place for burning garbage outside the city. The "service staff" in the whole city had obviously increased by several times. This was all done by Nangeng City using the tax revenue.
Recently, there was a saying among the merchants: In the past, when they went to other cities, they always felt that the taxes they paid were offerings to the lord of the city. However, only Nangeng City's taxes were truly taken from the people and used for the people.
This was actually a very high evaluation, because it meant that everyone enjoyed the benefits of Nangeng City's services.
Of course, there was also the prosperity of the brothel industry, but Lü Shu couldn't tell Zhang Weiyu that this was not good, because their views were different. On Earth, this was a legal issue, but in Lü Zhou, it was at most a health issue …
In addition to the supporting facilities and infrastructure in Nangeng City, Lü Shu also asked Wu Weijun to eliminate potential bandits, so that the merchants would feel safe when they came here.
With Wu Weijun's current strength, killing bandits couldn't be any easier. The bandits next to Nangeng City had all moved their families away, so they really couldn't afford to offend them.
Under normal circumstances, a bandit leader would be considered very powerful if he had the strength of a third-grade bandit, but Wu Weijun was different. A third-grade bandit was now at the bottom of Wu Weijun's list …
It was useless to set up a stronghold in a dangerous place on a mountain. What natural barrier could stop a cultivator? The only thing that could stop a cultivator was a cultivator.
Moreover, their scouts could fly …
Later, after the bandits moved away, they found that Wu Weijun's people were still expanding their attack range. They had moved hundreds of miles away, but they still saw Wu Weijun!
Everyone was puzzled. 'You guys are too meddlesome!'
In fact, they didn't know that this was Wu Weijun's specialty. Now that Wu Weijun didn't lack money, he didn't feel pressured wherever he went, and the biggest advantage of going out to suppress bandits was that … he didn't have to do homework!
When Li Heitan and the others found out about this, they went crazy. When they heard that there were bandits everywhere, no matter how far they were, they would destroy them!
At first, the bandits had no choice but to hide. Later, they felt that the rats around them seemed a little strange. On one hand, their appearance had changed, and many of them had an extra tuft of black hair on their heads. On the other hand, these rats were much stronger than them …
Moreover, before Wu Weijun came, they would always have a dream. In their dream, a white squirrel asked them if they wanted to buy soap …
Just this aspect of suppressing bandits made the merchants in Nan Geng City feel different.
In the past, when people were robbed, they would go to the government and say, "Sir, we were robbed, it's hard to do business, please help us eliminate them."
Nan Geng City was more impressive. Li Heitan squatted at the city gate every day and took the initiative to ask them if they had seen bandits. As long as they were from Nan Province, no matter where they came from, Wu Weijun would take care of all their worries for them …
The merchants in Nan Geng City all sighed with emotion. This was the attitude of doing business, so much so that they could lower the price when they bought goods. After all, it wasn't easy for Wu Weijun to make money, it was so hard!
At this moment, Nan Geng City was so harmonious …
Therefore, Wu Weijun's range of activities became wider and wider, and he even entered the military range of many noble armies and Long Meng armies.
Everyone was very angry. This kind of activity was not following the rules. Which family's army would run around like you?
But they gathered together and discussed whether or not they should warn Wu Weijun.
However, when the time came, they all chickened out, and no one really dared to say anything. After all, it wasn't easy to live …
This was the reputation that Wu Weijun had painstakingly earned. Everyone in Wu Weijun knew very well that it was all because of the changes that Lü Shu had brought to them.
