Due to the big reversal of the plot just now, the onlookers couldn't help but be immersed in it, so much so that they ignored the wooden flail worn around Fan Hongdao's neck. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was only now that everyone was stunned to find that Fan Hongdao was still being handcuffed by the wooden shackles, and the official with the key had slipped away. It is estimated that it will be difficult for the officials to come back, so a group of idlers surrounded Fan Hongdao, gossiping about ideas.

There are those who hold saws and axes, so that Fan Hongdao feels that his neck is cold, he doesn't want to risk his head, and a slight deviation will cost his life.

In the end, it was the shopkeeper Tian of the shop next door who had an idea, called an old locksmith from under the city wall, came to Fan Hongdao with a tool box, poked the keyhole and tinkered for a while, and actually opened the iron lock.

Although the flail is small, it is also laborious to carry for a long time. After abruptly unloading, Fan Hongdao suddenly felt as light as a swallow, and moved his legs and feet a few times.

Many neighborhood merchants still haven't left, first, they are full of pleasure and excitement when they witness Qin County's bullying and oppression of merchants but they are defeated; second, in their eyes, Fan Hongdao is a little magical, and they subconsciously want to talk more.

Seeing this, Fan Hongdao invited everyone into the already empty silk shop, borrowed tables, chairs and benches from the neighbors, and called the tea doctor from the tea stall at the street to come over to make tea. Because of the simplicity, everyone drank tea and chatted here.

The atmosphere was generally relaxed and happy, and everyone inevitably surrounded Fan Hongdao to inquire about the inside story. As the focus of attention, Fan Hongdao coughed after a few words, and said: "I have a word, please listen quietly." ”

In this way, everyone stopped and looked at Fan Hongdao in unison. Then I heard Fan Xiucai say: "Although the Yang family is rarely relieved, and the county government traitors have lost Maicheng, but my generation is far from the time when we can sit back and relax!"

In this neighborhood, Sun Chaofeng has the most houses and is the most sensitive, and hurriedly responded: "I want to hear about it!"

Fan Hongdao said in detail: "First, although Qin County Cheng was invited by the Criminal Department, according to the practice of officialdom, this matter is unlikely to make him completely lose his position, and there is still the possibility of a resurgence." ”

Sun Chaofeng was not worried about this, "No matter what, it is impossible for Lord Qin to continue to be the county magistrate of Daxing County, as long as he is not in Daxing County, he can't control us, what is there to worry about?"

Fan Hongdao didn't say anything more in this regard, and continued: "Second, Qin Xiancheng is just a minion sent by Uncle Zheng Guo, although he managed to cut off this minion, but Uncle Zheng's ambition is still there, and it should not be taken lightly. ”

Third, what worries me the most is that Uncle Zheng Guo may just be a precursor. Fan Hongdao strengthened his tone and said: "Since the death of the Jiangling Xianggong in the tenth year of Wanli, the imperial court has changed drastically, the old forces have been uprooted, and the new forces have come to power.

After these upstarts come to power, they will never be able to live a hard life, will they use their power to make profits? Looking at the capital division, there is not much surplus land around, and if they want to make a profit, they can only start with industry and commerce. Outside the Chongwen Gate, where my ancestors live, is a place where wealth gathers from all over the world, how can we sit back and relax?"

The more the crowd listened, the more the heart sank. Everyone here is basically a "civilian" businessman with no background, and those businessmen with a background will not come to join in the excitement of Fan Hongdao.

Most of them are old rivers and lakes, and they can tell that Fan Hongdao is not alarmist, but a real problem that is very likely to come true. Although it is not necessarily imminent, it makes people feel sick when they think about it.

When Fan Hongdao said this, he picked up the teacup and took a few sips, and by the way, let everyone think about it. After a moment of silence in the room, the shopkeeper Tian next door asked, "Presumably Mr. Fan has already thought it through, and I don't know if the plan will be settled?"

Fan Hongdao put down the teacup and said categorically: "At this time, the situation is like a strong enemy, and we can't help but be vigilant." The plan for today, of course, is to work together to the outside world, as the so-called everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high, so that you can be more stable!"

"How?" asked another anxious person.

Fan Hongdao has been planning for this for a long time, of course, he is confident, "As for the specifics, you might as well follow the example of the scholar." Have you ever wondered why the power of scholars has gradually increased in recent years?

From the following point of view, it is because of the prevailing habit of the Scholars' League! Once you join the club, you will be the brothers and brothers of the league, and they will echo each other with the same breath, so they can have a huge momentum, even if they are high-ranking officials and dignitaries, they dare not underestimate it!

If scholars can form gangs, why can't all the merchants and merchants? If they work together to advance and retreat together, at least the snoopers should be a little more fearful! When they encounter danger, they can also help each other in the same boat!

Fan Hongdao's implicit meaning is a bit deep, and when it comes to this level, others don't even understand it. Sun Chaofeng asked suspiciously: "There are already a lot of actions of the alliance.

There are seventy-two lines of large and small, many of which have peer guilds, and merchants from all over the world also have many hometown guilds, and there are no less than a dozen of them that I can remember. It is not necessarily as effective as Mr. Fan said. ”

Fan Hongdao immediately replied: "Sun Yuanwai doesn't understand, the alliance I am talking about is definitely not these! The guild of the same industry you just mentioned is just to coordinate the competition of the bank; as for the role of the guild of the fellow countrymen, it is only to help each other, so the two are mainly internal!"

And the alliance I am talking about is an alliance with a new use! It is to use the same voice and the same pace to deal with the government and external forces, not to deal with internal relations!

If the alliance is grown, if the monarchs encounter injustices, they can also hand it over to the alliance to come forward, it is better than now that after encountering problems, they can fight alone! For example, this time, if there is no momentum for the monarchs to jointly write a letter, how can it alarm the Gao imperial history?"

Fan Hongdao explained it like this, and everyone suddenly realized. The new type of alliance that Fan Xiucai mentioned turned out to be a purely political-oriented alliance, which was different from guilds and guilds, but higher than guilds and guilds.

At the same time, most people also thought of a problem, since this new league is politically oriented and functionally mainly deals with the government and the outside world, it always needs a representative figure who can come forward. So who will be the leader of this responsibility?

Ordinary businessmen can't be done, because ordinary businessmen themselves have no political status, and Shinong is the last in line with the government, and they are at an absolute disadvantage in dealing with the government, but powerful and powerful businessmen can't mix with ordinary businessmen.

Therefore, this leader must have a certain political status, be qualified to dialogue with the government, and be able to stand on the side of ordinary businessmen in terms of interests. Thinking of this, everyone unanimously looked at Fan Hongdao, who had a reputation for showing talent.

With such a major matter, it is impossible to make a decision after chatting for a while, and Fan Hongdao did not think that he would be able to make a decision immediately. Anyway, the seeds have been planted today, and they will slowly sprout.

It would be a huge amount of political capital to have the support of hundreds of merchants in the capital's largest business district, and Fan Hongdao still has to work hard for it.

ps: Yesterday's mind wandered, and the thirteenth year of Wanli was written as the thirteenth year of Chenghua, and the seventeenth year of Wanli was written as the seventeenth year of Chenghua, which was purely a clerical error, sorry!
