Chapter 990: Iron Ore
Chen De was very puzzled when he heard his father's scolding, he hadn't heard his father's scolding for a long time, but now how could he abuse himself so much in front of outsiders?
At this time, his father looked at Ning Xiaofan and said, "General, the old man didn't say half a joke, please give the old man a chance to express his thoughts." β
Of course, Ning Xiaofan knew the thoughts of the old man in front of him, and he understood that if he didn't accept some thanks from the Chen family, then their whole family would be very worried.
Ning Xiaofan said: "The army needs money and food, and I think Chen Lao should also know this, so if the Chen family can donate some money and food, it will be great, of course, if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter." β
"The granary of the Chen family, let you take it yourself. β
Chen Zu wanted to say seriously.
At this time, Chen De was immediately startled when he heard his father's words.
What does his father mean by contributing all his granaries?
If he contributes all his granaries, then what else does his Chen family have?
You must know that their Chen family still has some families, and there are many shops, if the granary is contributed, then there will be a shortage of funds in their hands in a short period of time, so this is really fatal for Chen Jiang, especially for the Chen family at this time.
At this time, Chen Zuyao looked at Ning Xiaofan with a serious face.
Ning Xiaofan also looked at him, and suddenly laughed.
"The Chen family's money and food, I don't want a grain from the Ning family, the Ning family army is to protect my friends, since Chen Jia feels willing to make me a friend, then the Ning family will naturally protect the Chen family's money and food, of course, the Chen family, as a big family here, must also know where there is food in this city, where there is money, and we should understand which people are bullies and which people are inferior gentry, our Ning family army will never tolerate the existence of this kind of person, if there is such a person, then I hope that the Chen family can truthfully provide me with the list, and the Ning family army will raid all these bullies and inferior gentryγ β
Chen De was really stunned when he heard Ning Xiaofan's words, he never thought that in the end, Ning Xiaofan's Ning family army would actually fight the local tyrant here, he felt even more shocked that this local tyrant almost hit their Chen family's head, but now Ning Jiajun has avoided Chen Jiang, why is this? Obviously, this is all because of his father's existence, if it wasn't for his father's insistence on thanking, who knows who Ning Xiaofan will be fighting now?
At this time, Chen De said: "General Ning, don't worry, I know the situation of all the families in this city well, and I will definitely give General Ning a surprise, and I will also contribute a large part of the food to General Ning's Ning family army, after all, the Ning family army is here to protect us." β
Of course Ning Xiaofan knew what Chen De meant now, and the reason why Chen De said this now was completely to please Ning Xiaofan was to let Ning Xiaofan protect their Chen family, so that their Chen family could continue to run rampant in this city.
Ning Xiaofan said: "I heard that you should have a lot of family members in your hands, and now there is still a shortage of personnel in my army, so let's let all the family members in your hands join me in my Ning family army." β
Chen De really didn't expect that his father would say that he would thank Ning Xiaofan, but he got Ning Xiaofan's feedback, but he wanted to be envious, but he got that Ning Xiaofan wanted to leave.
Seeing Chen De's surprise, Ning Xiaofan said, "What's wrong with Brother Chen? Could it be that what Brother Chen just said is false? Brother Chen doesn't really want to help my Ning Jiajun?"
"Sincerely, absolutely sincerely, although General Ning can rest assured, I, Chen De, are indeed sincere, and the lives I have saved are all given by the general, so my entire Chen family is General Ning, didn't General Ning say it before you? This city and the surrounding cities are all General Ning's people, then we are your people, from now on we have no emperor in our hearts, no king, only General Ning. β
Ning Xiaofan laughed.
"Brother Chen is really good at talking, okay, okay, let's not talk about the kind words, I will attack the city tomorrow, as for what will happen in your city, then I can't say, after all, this is a battle between the two armies. β
At this moment, Chen De hurriedly said: "General Ning, don't worry, if the Ning family army attacks the city tomorrow, we will participate and the big families in the entire city will give General Ning a response, and we will definitely make a contribution to defeating those robbers." β
Ning Xiaofan laughed, in fact, he didn't expect these families too much, he just needed the clothes that these families could be under his command, because only then could the road go more smoothly, and more importantly, after they took this city, they also needed someone to temporarily manage it here, and these big families were naturally the best candidates, especially the Chen family.
"If Brother Chen can really do this, it is simply great, in that case, the Ning family army will definitely give Brother Chen a credit after entering the city. β
Chen De was immediately excited when he heard Ning Xiaofan's words, and hurriedly said: "For the sake of the Ning family, everything is worth it, and the whole family will always support the Ning family." β
"Okay, very good" Ning Xiaofan got up and was about to leave, but suddenly thought of what Jin Chanzi said.
"By the way, there's one thing I'd like to ask you. β
Chen De hurriedly said, "General Ning has something to say, please say." β
Ning Xiaofan said: "I heard that the local area is rich in iron ore, I don't know if there is such a thing?"
When Ning Xiaofan's words came out, Chen De and his father immediately glanced at each other.
Obviously, they were very surprised, how could Ning Xiaofan know about this, you must know that almost all the local iron mines are monopolized by them, and it is precisely because of this that they have always been invincible in this city, because with iron mines, they can mine and practice iron, so they can get a steady stream of money.
However, they also knew very well in their hearts that since Ning Xiaofan had already said it, then Ning Xiaofan must know something, so at this level in front of them, they didn't dare to hide anything, because they knew very well in their hearts that if they concealed it, maybe the delicate relationship they had just established with Ning Xiaofan might collapse instantly, and more importantly, the people who were hacked to death outside, they were still lying on the ground, would Ning Xiaofan be angry because of this matter, and then do something crazy?
These are things that they dare not imagine, or even if they knew, they would not dare to think about them.
So immediately after that, they spoke.
"General Ning is right, the local area is indeed rich in iron ore, and almost all of the iron ore is mined by my Chen family, so for these things, I will General Ning, who knows best, if you have anything to ask. β
"I see," Ning Xiaofan said with a smile, "It seems that it is no accident that the Chen family can be the first in this city." β
At this time, Chen Lao said: "The general is really joking, what Chen De said just now may be a little misunderstood, or let me tell me, these iron mines are not my Chen family." β
When Ning Xiaofan heard Chen Lao's words, he couldn't help but say for a while: "What does Chen Lao mean by this, where is it that is not the Chen family? I'm afraid that there is no family in the entire city that can compare with the Chen family, and no family is enough to control the iron mines around this city." β
"There is a man who has the ability to control these iron frames, and only he is qualified to have them. β
Ning Xiaofan was even more strange when he heard Chen Lao's words.
"I really don't understand what Old Chen is saying, is there a stronger force in the local area than the Chen family?"
"I don't know if this is a powerful old man, but Lao Jiu knows that not only do several cities around this city belong to him, but it can also be said that he is the master of the local area. β
At this time, Chen De said: "Father, I can't understand what you are talking about." β
This is Chen Lao said: "You elm head, what can you understand, we are already the territory of the Ning family's army, and General Ning is the head of the Ning family's army, this place is naturally General Ning's, not only those iron ores, but also the local bricks and tiles also belong to General Ning, and even you and I belong to General Ning." β
Chen De now understood the meaning of his father's words, that is, all those iron ores were to be dedicated to Ning Xiaofan.
This is very distressing for Chen De, you must know that the value of those iron ores is very high, it can be said that as long as there are those iron ores, the wealth will continue to come in, but if those iron ores are dedicated, then the wealth will be interrupted, and their family may change.
Ying Xiaofan listened to Chendao's words, and really sighed in his heart that this person was cunning and cunning.
What is called a person who knows the times is Junjie, and Chen Lao is
Ning Xiaofan had heard of the old fox, but there was no better and cunning old fox than Chendao.
Chen Lao knew very well in his heart that it was impossible for their Ning Jiajun to mine iron ore, and in the end, the people who mined iron ore must also be their participants, after all, their whole family was the spokesperson selected by Ning Xiaofan.
Ning Xiaofan said: "I have no intention of receiving the Chen family's iron ore." β
"General Ning really said that these iron mines were originally General Ning's, and I just took care of them on my behalf, and now that General Ning is here, it is assigned by God, and I naturally want to return the wealth belonging to General Ning to General Ning, and I have participated in the personnel who specialize in mining and refining iron ore, which can be given to General Ning together. β
Ying Xiaofan said: "This is not necessary, in the future, the local iron ore will still be mined and refined by the Chen family, and the Ning family army needs iron ore, so I hope that the Chen family can supply and demand the refined iron to the Ning family, and the rest can be exchanged for property, which can be owned by the Cheng family, I believe that with the support of the Ning family, the wealth of the Chen family will grow many times faster than now." β
Chen De felt distressed when he heard it, although Ning Xiaofan said that he could let the Chen family leave some iron ore in exchange for finances, but you must know that those iron mines used to belong to the Chen family, and it can be said that all those iron mines in the past could be exchanged for a steady stream of wealth for the family, and now a small part of it has become Ning Xiaofan's gift.
Obviously, Chen De was very unhappy.
But Old Chen said: "Thank you General Ning, the Chen family will definitely remember General Ning's kindness, and will definitely supply the best fine iron to the Ning family's army." β
Ning Xiaofan laughed: "Actually, what I said today doesn't count, let's just talk and joke here, you really don't have to take it too seriously." β
As soon as Ning Xiaofan's words came out, the Chen family's father and son were startled.
Chen Lao hurriedly said: "What does General Ning mean by this, I really have the heart of obedience when I get married, and General Ning must accept my Chen family." β
Ning Xiaofan said: "Ying Jiajun is still outside the city now, so whether you can enter the city tomorrow, this is uncertain, if you are lucky enough to enter the city, then everything we said tonight is true, if we can't enter the city, haha, your whole family can also be regarded as if I have never been here." β
Chen De immediately looked at his father.
However, his father knelt directly on the ground at this moment, looking at Ning Xiaofan.
"No matter if there are any changes in Xinyi City in the future, my Chen family's loyalty to General Ning will never change, from now on, the Chen family will belong to the Ning family, the army will belong to General Ning, and the lives of dozens of people in the Chen family will all depend on General Ning. β
Ying Xiaofan laughed when he heard his words.
"Old Chen, why bother. β
Chen Lao said: "Old decay, although he is old, but these eyes can still see very clearly, I can see that General Ning is the dragon and phoenix among the people, and he will achieve great things in the future, and my Chen family will be blessed by the Chen family as soon as possible." β
Ning Xiaofan stepped forward to help Chen Lao up.
"Old Chen has your words, I am very happy in my heart, it's not too early, I'll leave first, I think we will meet again soon." β
"General Ning, I'll send you. β
Chen Lao hurriedly said.
Ning Xiaofan said: "No need, you should think more about what happened tonight and what you said, I forgot to tell you that what I Ning Xiaofan hate the most is inconsistency." β
After Ning Xiaofan finished speaking, he stepped out with an arrow step, and then disappeared in place with a shake of his body.
The father and son of the Chen family looked at Ning Xiaofan, who was nowhere to be seen, and suddenly you look at me, I look at you.
"Father, are we suffering a big loss, you must know that the iron ore is the source of wealth for us, if we contribute this iron ore, then the wealth of our Chen family will be greatly reduced." β
"Confused, can't you see it? This General Ning is bound to have a great career, if I can follow General Ning to achieve a great career, then my family is not just a family in this small Xinyi City, maybe I can go further and stand taller, what is this loss?"
Chen De listened to his father's words, and then he understood what his father meant, and at the same time, he was also secretly thinking about Ning Xiaofan, whether he could make a big career in the end, and whether the future family would really change drastically because of Ning Xiaofan?
