Chapter 200: Settle quietly
That Li Yonghe gave himself a gold and silver shop, which was the so-called money shop in the Great Song Dynasty, which was equivalent to a bank in later generations.
Fan Yu's idea is to temporarily save all the money sent by these people here.
Of course, it's not a good idea to just store it in this gold and silver shop. However, if the business of the factory grows in the future, the logistics and sales network that will come with it will allow the shop to expand dramatically.
At that time, the creation of the institute, as the only major customer, was enough to support the establishment of this banking system. And these sales networks and logistics will also give this bank a huge advantage that other money stores do not have.
Thinking of this, Fan Yu didn't dare to think about it again. If it is really done, I am afraid that the economic lifeline of the entire Great Song Dynasty will be caught in my hands, and I don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing.
After sending Cao Tong and Zhao Yunchu away, Fan Yu ordered someone to invite Zhou Feng over, and called a few forbidden soldiers to escort him, and went to Li Yonghe's mansion with him.
Although Li Yonghe has the position of a festival envoy, he does not have much power in his hands. His house was in the outer city, not far from the western workshop.
Hearing that An Lehou was visiting, Li Yonghe was overjoyed, which showed that he had asked Fan Yu to have an eyebrow.
It's just that everyone arrived at the gate, but Li Yonghe suffered from gains and losses, some joys and sorrows, and when he saw Fan Yu, he was even more worried in his heart.
"An Lehou is here, but what does Sister have to say, please transfer An Lehou on your behalf?" When Li Yonghe saw Fan Yu, he asked.
Fan Yu saw the other party's worried look, and he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.
"Li Yuanjun entertains guests, but he can't only talk outside the gate?" Fan Yu didn't answer the other party, but provoked a number of courtesies.
Although it is said that the stepmother Empress Dowager Li has forgiven Li Yonghe, Fan Yu is still a little unhappy for his stepmother. This is my own brother, and he didn't care about my sister's life or death back then, and categorically repaired the book and broke off with my sister. This kind of behavior, in Fan Yu's opinion, is really excessive.
Even if Fan Yu accepted the money shop worth 100,000 yuan from the other party, he didn't treat the other party very well in his heart.
Li Yonghe saw that Fan Yu was dissatisfied, so he hurriedly stretched out his hand and said, "I really care about Sister A's affairs, but I let An Lehou snub." Please have tea inside, and I'll talk to Hou Ye again. ”
Let Fan Yu enter the main hall and sit down, and the next person will bring tea.
"I was heartbroken just now, and I hope that Hou Haihan will be happy if he is rude." Since Li Yonghe was scolded by Fan Yu last time, he no longer dared to call himself an uncle.
Fan Yu smiled, waved his hand at Li Yonghe and said, "I came here to ask to see Li Yuanjun." And after receiving a heavy gift from you, how can you not do something? The last time I went to the palace to see my stepmother, I told her about the king. Guess what the stepmother said? ”
"Sister, what did she say......" Li Yonghe asked a little excitedly.
"My stepmother said that she no longer cares about you after all these years. My stepmother said, "You can't be blamed entirely for the situation at that time." He also said that whether it is good or hateful, it will be all in vain. Let me tell you if I see Li Yuanjun, your sister has forgiven you. Fan Yu informed Li Yonghe of the original words of his stepmother, Empress Dowager Li.
Hearing that Sister A was considerate of herself, and finally forgave him, Li Yonghe couldn't hold back anymore, and couldn't help crying, "Sister, I, I can't stand you...... Back then, I shouldn't have been threatened by the demagoguery of the Empress Dowager Liu, and I broke off with Sister A, I was simply inhuman......"
Seeing that Li Yonghe was crying extremely sadly, it was not a fake, Fan Yu's impression of this person was slightly better.
He then spoke: "Li Yuanjun, my stepmother has forgiven you, don't let me down again." If you dare to hurt your stepmother's affection for your sister and brother again, I will not spare you. Now that Li Yuanjun and my stepmother are reunited, they can be regarded as sisters and brothers, but they don't have to cry anymore, they should be happy. ”
"Yes, yes, yes, An Lehou said very much, I couldn't help myself for a while, but it made An Lehou smile." Li Yonghe hurriedly wiped away his tears, got up and bowed deeply to Fan Yu, "An Lehou is above, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't dare to think about it in this life, and I can still ask Sister A to forgive me." Please bow down to me. ”
Fan Yu hurriedly jumped up and got out of the way, this gift was unbearable. Although he didn't care about the other party calling him uncle, the relationship between the elder and the youngest is still there. If you let Li Yong and this guy sue themselves in front of their stepmother, wouldn't the money shop be asked to go back again? Therefore, the more polite the other party is, the more unacceptable the courtesy is.
"Li Yuanjun, don't bow to me, if you really want to thank me, let the shopkeeper I brought, and carefully hand over the money shop." Fan Yu said with a dry smile.
Li Yonghe nodded again and again, then Empress Dowager Liu's words counted, he Li Yonghe is indeed a family with no less than one million yuan, and his two sons have also received the position of grace. Therefore, Li Yonghe is not so reluctant to pay for this shop worth 100,000 yuan.
When he ordered someone, he led Zhou Feng brought by Fan Yu to the money shop in Sweetwater Lane to check the accounts and check the number of gold, silver and copper coins.
Fan Yu was satisfied and planned to leave.
But Li Yonghe said: "If An Lehou is fine, can you go to the palace with me?" ”
"Li Yuanjun can go by himself, you are the brother of your stepmother, you can directly let people pass it on." Fan Yu waved his hand.
Li Yonghe was very uneasy and said, "If Sister doesn't see me yet, so what? ”
Fan Yu saw that Li Yonghe was suffering from gains and losses, so he shook his head and said, "You can rest assured that your stepmother is not a ruthless person." If you ask to see you, your mother will meet you. Moreover, it is inconvenient for me to go, so it will not hinder you from talking to your stepmother and sister-in-law. There are many things in the past, and if I were there, you would not be able to talk about them. ”
Li Yonghe thought about it too, so he sent Fan Yu out of the house with a thousand thanks.
Fan Yu had just returned home, and not long after, a clerk from the Tongjin Division sent documents.
The content of the document is to appoint Fan Yu as the deputy envoy to the Liao State, and to send the Liao State together with Duan Shaolian. Two days later, they converge at the North Gate and head north.
Duan Shaolian on the other side also received the documents from the Tongjin Division. Duan Shaolian took the paperwork and went to see Cai Qi, the governor of the political department.
"Cai Xianggong, let me send an envoy to Liao, I don't have any opinion, the Lu of the king should be loyal to the king." Duan Shaolian frowned and said, "But this An Lehou is probably not a person who is easy to get along with." ”
Cai Qi invited Duan Shaolian to sit down, and asked with a smile: "Duan Zhige, where did you come from?" ”
Duan Shaolian sighed and said, "The day before yesterday, I learned that An Lehou was the deputy envoy, so I specially came to visit. But after talking about it for a few words, the words are not speculative. This person is just a small villager from the village, he can't judge the situation, and his words are vulgar and disgusting. If such people are appointed as deputies, there will be more than enough success and more failure. If you can't make friends with Liao, I'm afraid that you will offend the Liao Emperor. If it backfires in the end, we will be the sinners of the Great Song Dynasty. ”
"Duan Zhige is serious." Cai Qi, as the deputy prime minister, is not just listening to one side, he looked at Duan Shaolian and said: "Although An Lehou is the son of Empress Dowager Li, he is suddenly expensive. But I have also made contributions to the imperial court, where is what you say unbearable. Moreover, as a deputy envoy, he was also ordered by Lu Xianggong to recommend the official. If you want to change the deputy envoy, I'm afraid it won't be possible. ”
knew that Fan Yu was not small, but he didn't expect this to become a deputy envoy, or the meaning of the official family and Lu Xianggong.
Duan Shaolian couldn't help but be stunned and said, "But...... I'm afraid that I don't agree with An Lehou when I get along, and I'm afraid that I will make a mistake. I also asked Cai Xianggong to teach me to try to resolve it. ”
Cai Qi knew that this Shaolian was a corrupt Confucian, and he was afraid that he would make trouble now, so he said casually: "Although you are a righteous envoy, An Lehou's status is precious, no matter how big or small, you are up to him." Let him be a practical envoy, and you can be quiet. If there is anything, he will bear it. ”
