Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

After a long night of tossing and turning, dawn began to break.
Sure enough, early in the morning, people came to the Lu Family’s door to pay New Year’s greetings.
No matter what, even with all the skepticism about Lu Xiaobu from the outside world, thinking he’s going to fall this time!
But in Shimen, it’s still the Lu Family that calls the shots!
The one leading the group is Zhang Benhu.
This guy, now, is not afraid of anyone’s judgment, after all, his current identity is an actor!
As long as the Lu Family remains upright and Lu Xiaobu is still around, he can walk around with great dignity and confidence!
Nobody can control him!
"Happy New Year, Young Master Bu!"
Zhang Benhu carried things, stood at the door, and the moment the Lu Family’s door opened, he bowed respectfully and shouted loudly.
"Happy New Year, Young Master Bu!"
The various prominent figures from Shimen City behind him all bowed respectfully as well!
A full ninety-degree bow!
"Happy New Year, Old Master Lu!"
Zhang Benhu rose and then bowed again!
"Happy New Year, Old Master Lu!"
The prominent figures behind him also bowed again!
Seeing this scene, the passersby on the street were all incredibly envious.
"The Lu Family is indeed still the Lu Family! Look at these big shots, each one being so obedient! I wish I could be in there too!"
"You? Get over it! Those qualified to pay New Year’s greetings to the Lu Family today have at least a fortune of over a billion!"
"And that’s not all! Didn’t you notice these big shots are each accompanied by just one person?"
"Yeah, I just realized, what does that mean?!"
"I heard that it’s like the big shots’ sons aren’t qualified; they don’t dare to bring them out!"
"No way! Is it that impressive?!"
"Of course, in Shimen, the Lu Family has always been this impressive!"
"..."
After the big shots finished bowing, they all cheerfully carried their gifts and filed in one by one.
It seemed harmonious and lively.
Father Lu liked this festive atmosphere, holding the little girl; he was smiling so happily: "Hongbin, Wenhuo, go greet everyone."
"Alright, Dad."
Lu Hongbin and Lu Wenhuo exchanged a glance and smiled helplessly.
In a normal family, usually it’s the youngest sibling who welcomes everyone, which means it should be Lu Xiaobu!
However, in the Lu Family, that’s not the case.
Didn’t you see during the New Year greetings, Xiaobu was lined up before their father!
If Xiaobu really went to greet them, they’d be sitting on pins and needles.
That’s why Zhang Benhu is considered the most clever!
Look now, in addition to the standard gifts, he brought out an exquisitely crafted little toy and handed it over to the little girl.
This was the little princess of the Lu Family, a beloved gem!
The little girl’s eyes lit up when she saw the gift, she thanked him with a smile: "Thank you, Uncle."
"No need, no need!"
Zhang Benhu waved repeatedly, smiling blissfully.
Lu Xiaobu then leisurely walked out, yawning: "Everyone’s here, huh!"
"Happy New Year, Young Master Bu!"
Instantly, everyone who had just sat down got up and greeted him again.
"Alright, alright, everyone sit down! It’s too early to drink, let’s have some tea instead!"
Lu Xiaobu waved his hand and said.
"Okay!"
Everyone sat down, began exchanging New Year greetings, and started chatting.
"Young Master, there are two people who haven’t come."
Zhang Benhu walked up to Lu Xiaobu, whispering: "Do you want me to..."
When Zhang Benhu reached this point, although still smiling, his eyes had already flashed a sharp aura!
"Who are they?"
Lu Xiaobu asked lightly.
Anyone could tell the two people who didn’t come definitely didn’t want to be implicated by Lu Xiaobu.
In other words, they thought Lu Xiaobu was doomed!
"Gong Yichen from Huanxi Engineering Company, and Dong Zhenxiong from Xinlun Trading," Zhang Benhu spoke.
"Alright, I got it. Go tell Liang Lan to note it down, after the New Year, clean up United Pay, and sort them out while you’re at it."
Lu Xiaobu yawned again, as if it were as simple as dealing with two pigs.
"Okay, Young Master!"
Zhang Benhu nodded.
"By the way, how’s the filming of that TV show going?"
Lu Xiaobu asked again.
This was the special soldier TV show promised to the troops, which had long been handed over to Zhang Benhu to produce.
"Almost done, it’s expected to be released in April this year, oh no, next year."
Zhang Benhu nodded.
"Alright, let me know, and I’ll go check it out."
Lu Xiaobu ended the conversation.
After sending off this group of people, soon another batch arrived.
However, this batch was different from the previous one; they were neighbors, Father Lu’s acquaintances, and so on!
And there weren’t any formalities at all.
It was completely about bringing as many people as possible.
Especially the young folks, a whole gang came, clearly wanting to have a look around.
It was like turning the Lu Family into a tourist attraction.
Endless photos were being taken, and gasps of awe kept coming.
"Wow! This is the Lu Family!"
"My goodness! Is it this luxurious?!"
"Which one is Lu Xiaobu?!"
"That little kid is really cute!"
"..."
Anyway, it was all amazement and surprise.
Lu Xiaobu couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to them, while Father Lu chatted with old friends, handing out some red envelopes here and there.
As for the rest, Zhang Benhu had specially arranged people to greet them, making sure they didn’t wander around and touch things!
At this point, the New Year greetings were considered concluded.
Lu Xiaobu went to catch up on sleep.
This nap lasted until past seven in the evening.
Then he was woken up by Liang Lan.
"What’s up, Sister Lan?"
Lu Xiaobu said, eyes still closed; he hadn’t slept enough yet.
"Young Master, isn’t today the day for the Shimen Spring Gala, where you’re performing magic?"
Liang Lan kindly reminded him.
"Oh, right, I almost forgot."
Lu Xiaobu lazily got up from bed, casually tousling his hair as he headed out: "Has someone been sent to watch Bai Jun?"
"I had Zhang Benhu send someone to watch him; as soon as he enters Shimen, he’ll be discovered." Liang Lan nodded.
"Alright, just keep an eye on him, we’ll deal with him after the performance."
Lu Xiaobu casually washed up and got in the car.
While in the car, he checked the remaining amount of the Charging Shield.
Realizing there was only three hundred million left, he added another fifty billion.
Seeing it slowly starting to charge, Lu Xiaobu stopped worrying about it.
He began to think about what magic trick to perform today.
Dragon Capturing Hand, Water attribute, or Fire attribute.
All of these could be performed as magic tricks, and with just a casual move, it could completely win!
However, Lu Xiaobu thought, since he decided to perform, he couldn’t just be perfunctory about it!
So he still had to carefully think and design it.
