Lu Fei could understand Wei Ning's feelings. This was like a martial arts addict. If he could learn a new martial art, he would naturally study it without eating or sleeping.
Lu Fei saw him continue to work on the mask and said, "I don't know if Mister is interested in coming to my residence. I have some property in You Zhou and can help Mister with your research."
Wei Ning's eyes gradually lit up. He paused and shook his head. "I know what you want to do. I'm not interested in researching weapons because it can only bring endless disaster. The more powerful something is, the more people will die on the battlefield."
Lu Fei was pleased. "Of course not. Mister can research whatever you want, as long as the things you create are valuable. When the time comes, we can sell them and Mister can earn a lot of money."
Wei Ning looked at Wei An who was standing in a daze and sighed. "Pengju thinks so highly of me. What reason do I have to refuse?"
Lu Fei was happy. "I won't treat Mister unfairly."
When Lu Fei returned to the inn, the room was crowded with people. Dian Wei and Guan Yu were arm-wrestling. The two of them had smashed a mahogany table in the inn. Guan Yu was happy to see Lu Fei. "Big brother, you're back."
Lu Fei nodded. "How many people did you bring this time?"
Guan Yu said, "A total of fifty people. Third brother was afraid that there wouldn't be enough people, so he brought more. They are now waiting in the town outside the city."
Lu Fei said, "Then you can set off immediately. It'll save you a lot of trouble if you go back early."
Han walked in from outside the door. "I've checked. There's no news of anyone being arrested nearby." Then Kong Qing also walked in from outside the door. When she saw Lu Fei, she giggled. "Are you surprised?"
Lu Fei frowned. "It's dangerous here. Why did you follow me?"
Kong Qing said, "I'm not afraid. I'm bored to death staying in the residence all day, so I wanted to come and play with you."
Lu Fei rolled his eyes. "How's your martial arts practice?"
Kong Qing: "I can already take 30 moves from Brother Yun Chang. Isn't that amazing?" Previously, when she first arrived at the Manor, she refused to submit to anyone. In the end, she was knocked down by Guan Yu's saber and had to lie on the bed for several days before she finally stopped and concentrated on practicing martial arts. Fortunately, there were many experts in the Manor, and everyone was generous with their guidance. Therefore, Kong Qing's martial arts progressed rapidly. Lu Fei nodded: "That's good. Er 'Lai, how's your Mountain Pushing Palm?"
Without a word, Dian Wei stepped forward and pushed out his palms, raising a strong wind in the room. Lu Fei nodded. "Not bad." As he spoke, his palms collided with Dian Wei's, and Dian Wei was forced to take two steps back. Dian Wei was also pushed back by the counterforce. Guan Yu sighed, "Big Brother is so brave. If I were to exchange a blow with Er 'Lai, I'm afraid I would have to take a few steps back."
Lu Fei smiled and looked at Han. "How's Ma Chao's training going? Are you obedient? "
Han: "If he's not obedient, I'll beat him up. He's very obedient."
Lu Fei: "Enough of that. Let's set off now. I've found a talent here. I'll have to trouble you to take them with you later."
Han said mysteriously, "I'm told that Brother Lu has recently obtained the Thousand Chance Pearl. I wonder if it's true."
Lu Fei said angrily, "If it's true, I wouldn't be in the mood to gloat here. Someone set me up this time, and I have to find out who it is. After the investigation is done, I'll go back to the Manor and reunite with you."
Lu Fei then asked about the blacksmith business of the Lu Family. Guan Yu said, "Zheng Lin is indeed a talent. He has managed the business of the blacksmith shop well. Now that the business in Fanyang County has been stabilized, all the blacksmith businesses in Zhuo Commandery have been taken over by us. Zheng Lin is now preparing to expand to other commanderies. A few days ago, he took his men to Liangzhou, claiming that he would only make a specific plan after inspecting Liangzhou."
Lu Fei smiled. "I was right about Zheng Lin. How's the training of the talents in the Manor?"
Han said, "There's absolutely no problem in this regard. With the guidance of Brother Yunchang and Brother Yide, the defense of the Lu Manor has been greatly improved. I've placed hidden sentries everywhere. Now, the Lu Manor is airtight. Even a fly can't fly in."
Lu Fei knew that Han Chang was good at assassination and knew the most about these things. He was delighted. "That's good. Then I'm relieved. When I'm not here, everyone will temporarily listen to Brother Yunchang's orders. I hope that everyone can work together. Only then will we be able to face the future enemies. No one will dare to bully us."
Everyone nodded in agreement. Obviously, Guan Yu had shown his skills in front of them before. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so obedient.
Then, Lu Fei called Zou Yuzhi and Mother Zou over. "These two … and the others, I'll leave them to you. Everyone wait here for a moment. I'll go and inform Elder Wei."
Guan Yu: "Big Brother, you don't have to go personally. I'll send someone."
Lu Fei: "Then you must be courteous. Elder Wei is a genius. Everyone can't ignore him."
Guan Yu went out to make arrangements. He also began to inform the other members of the Mu Family to gather in the town outside so that they could set off together.
After a while, Wei Ning was brought over. He was pulling a large cart filled with his designs and inventions. Guan Yu said helplessly, "I told him not to bring these things, but Mr. Wei said that these things were more important, so he could only bring them."
Lu Fei nodded. "These things are more important. It's good to bring them." Then, he called Guan Yu aside. "Mr. Wei is good at all kinds of mechanisms and devices, but he doesn't develop weapons. When the time comes, provide him with funds for his research. Don't neglect him. We'll talk about everything when I get back. Understand?"
Guan Yu nodded. "Yes, Big Brother."
Lu Fei immediately let them set off. Before leaving, Zou Yuzhi and Lu Fei talked a lot before reluctantly leaving with the others. Kong Qing was jealous, but there was nothing she could do. She thought that since Zou Yuzhi was prettier than her, it was normal for Lu Fei to like her.
Wei Ning handed the mask he made to Lu Fei. "If there was still time, I could make it more detailed. But now, I can't. I can only make do with this."
Lu Fei took it and looked at it. He saw that the mask had been retouched, and even the pores were clearly visible. There was also a lot of stubble around the corners of the mouth, making it look more realistic. Lu Fei was delighted. "This is already very good. I guarantee that no one will be able to find out." After saying that, he put the mask on his face and looked at the others. "Can anyone recognize me?"
