Fang Wenshi made such a big move, and it was quickly known by all the ministers. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Dong Zhuo was the first to know about Fang Wen's porridge, after all, his army was all over Luoyang City.
"Yu Xiangguo, a soldier has just come to report that someone is giving porridge to the people in the city, and as long as that person has a bite to eat, he will not let the people starve. A young general came to report to Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo became interested, "Who has such a big family fortune? Why don't you know how to give us two flowers?"
The soldier said that the man was Cai Zhonglang's son-in-law, named Fang Wen. ”
"What?" Dong Zhuo stood up in fright, "What did you say was that person's name?"
"His name is Fang Wen!"
"Are you sure it's Fang Wen?" Dong Zhuo asked eagerly.
"Yes!"
"I see, you go down. Dong Zhuo sighed and waved his hand to let the young general leave.
"The subordinates retired. Immediately, the young general left the Xiangguo Mansion.
"Hey, young master, you are hiding it from me so hard!" Dong Zhuo didn't know that this Fang Wen was his master! After all, in the entire Luoyang City, except for him Dong Zhuo, only Fang Wen had the ability to give porridge.
The news of Fang Wen's soup porridge naturally also spread to Situ Wang Yun's mansion.
"Lord, according to the report from the next person, someone is giving porridge to the people of Luoyang City. Liu Quan said.
"Oh, give porridge to the people of Luoyang City, this person is anxious for justice and righteousness. What a role model for my generation! Do you know which minister it is? Let's come and pay a visit. Wang Yun asked.
"It is said to be Cai Zhonglang's son-in-law, named Fang Wen. ”
"There is no minister named Fang Wen in the court?" Wang Yun wondered, "Could it be a child of a family?"
"Back to the lord, this Fang Wen seems to have appeared out of nowhere, and there was no news from him before. Liu Quan said, "Moreover, the servant who escaped from our house is called Fang Wen." ”
"What?" Wang Yun exclaimed. "You mean, this soup kitchener Fang Wen is the servant who escaped from our house?"
"The subordinates are just guessing. Liu Quan said.
"Go and find out to me whether this man is a servant who has escaped from our house. ”
Although Fang Wen was only a little disrespectful to Fang Wen at the beginning, Wang Yun's hatred for Fang Wen is still unforgettable. For Wang Yun, Fang Wen's behavior was a contempt for him as a minister.
It's just that Fang Wen disappeared for a while, making Wang Yun think that Fang Wen had starved to death or was killed by a patrolman.
But now, Fang Wen suddenly appeared again, and Wang Yun naturally hated it.
Soon, someone inquired. It was an hour or so before the man returned.
"Lord, that Fang Wen is the Fang Wen who escaped from our house. ”
"Damn! it's really him!" Wang Yun was furious, "I didn't expect that this Fang Wen not only didn't die, but actually became Cai Yong's son-in-law, and now he has earned a great reputation by giving porridge." Does he want to become an official in the next step?"
The more Wang Yun thought about it, the more angry he became, "Hmph, a slave, a lowly minor, and a delusional desire to become an official in the court, it's just wishful thinking." ”
"Lord, Dong Zhuo has always been wealthy, it is better to report this matter to Dong Zhuo and ask him to bring someone to raid Fang Wen's house. Liu Quan said.
"That's one way. Wang Yun nodded, "But now that this Fang Wen has become Cai Yong's son-in-law, will Dong Zhuo let him go for Cai Yong's sake?"
"Lord, he was a lowly servant who originally had nothing, but where did he get so much money to give porridge to the people?" Liu Quan asked.
"Yes, where did he get so much money to give porridge?" Wang Yun was also puzzled.
The subordinates thought that all his family wealth was obtained from Cai Yong. He was using Cai Yong's family wealth to give porridge. Liu Quan said.
"Yes, that makes sense. Wang Yun nodded, "However, in this way, with Dong Zhuo's attitude towards Cai Yong, it is even more impossible for Dong Zhuo to copy Fang Wen's house." ”
"Master, what do you say Dong Zhuo hates the most, what do you like the most?" Liu Quan said.
"He hates people taking his money the most, and he likes beauty the most. Wang Yun said.
"Exactly, the master can slander Cai Yong for stealing Dong Zhuo's grain for disaster relief, and quietly reveal to Dong Zhuo that Cai Yong's daughter is a great beauty. In this way, where will Dong Zhuo take care of Cai Yong's reputation. Liu Quan said.
Wang Yun nodded, "Yes, it's a good plan to kill two birds with one stone." ”
The other ministers naturally also learned about Fang Wen's soup kitchen, but none of them were as afraid of Fang Wen as Dong Zhuo, nor did they hate Fang Wen as much as Wang Yun.
However, they have different opinions on Fang Wen.
Some people were jealous of Fang Wen's fame and thought that Fang Wen was a villain who was greedy for fame and fortune. They were all waiting to see Fang Wen's joke.
After all, it is not so easy for even the largest family to come up with a year's ration for six or seven hundred thousand people.
There are also people who admire Fang Wen's approach, and Fang Wen admires him and plans to visit Fang Wen.
It's just that the street where Fangfu is located is all occupied by refugees, and even if they want to visit, they can't go at all. So this matter can only be delayed.
Similarly, there were some people who were dismissive of Fang Wen, they were neither jealous of Fang Wen's such a great reputation, nor did they think of visiting Fang Wen. Because in their eyes, Fang Wen is nothing, just grandstanding.
…………
Fang Wen's side, after an hour passed, Zhou Fu came back, "Young master, the house is all done, this is the title deed." ”
Fang Wen took it, "Why are there only eight tickets?"
"Young master, these eight families took advantage of the fire to rob, and they asked the young master to buy their house with a thousand gold. As for the other people, they did not agree to sell the house, they were impressed by the young master's good deeds, and were willing to lend their house to us unconditionally, as long as the young master used it, the house was returned to them. ”
"I see. Fang Wen nodded, and then ordered, "You will lead someone to take the gold to settle the gold owed by these eight families later, and get back the IOU in the other party's hand." As for the other families, you give them ten gold for each family and let them move out temporarily. ”
"Yes, young master. Zhou Fu then led the people to leave with the gold.
After Zhou Fu left, Fang Wen sighed with emotion, "There are still many good people in this world!"
"It's the husband's heart. Cai Yan said, "But those who take advantage of the fire to rob are really hateful." A house dares to ask for a thousand gold!"
"It's okay, your husband, I don't lack gold. Fang Wen said with a smile.
"But you can't be cheap, these people who take advantage of the fire to rob!" Cai Yan said angrily.
"It's not easy to do, when Zhou Fu gets the IOU back and they all move out, I'll take back all the gold. Fang Wen said.
Cai Yan suddenly smiled, "It's still a good husband, let's do it!"
