Chen Xu walked out of the room and saw a guard in the house standing at the door with sweat on his forehead.

"What?"

"Lord Hou, there is a caravan from Nanyang, the leader is called the person from Fan's Winery, Steward Chen asked me to inform you to go home!"

Chen Xu instantly understood that it was the incident that Fang Cai and Huangfu Que were talking about, and it should be Fan Yan who arranged for someone to bring wine, so he ordered the guards to go back first, and then turned around and went into the room to say goodbye to Ying Shiyan.

"The princess forgives me, there is something in the palace to go back first, you can recuperate in the hotel with peace of mind, and I will come to see you tomorrow!"

"That's it!" Ying Shiyan's face was suddenly a little lonely, but she was still very polite and bowed under the support of the two palace maids, "Shiyan sent Qinghe Hou!" ”

"No, no, it's windy outside the door, princess stay!" Chen Xu hurriedly went out after giving up, closed the door and let out a long breath, then strode out of the hotel and drove back to the house under the escort of a group of guards.

Sure enough, when he returned home, he saw more than a dozen carriages parked in the courtyard, and in addition to the driver and the escort helpers, there was also a young man of twenty-six or seventeen years old and a beautiful woman of about twenty years.

Seeing Chen Xu coming in in the car under the escort of a group of tiger-backed guards, everyone hurriedly stood up to greet him, and after Chen Xu got out of the car, the young man saluted respectfully and said, "Versace greets Master Hou!" ”

Chen Xu's feet were soft and almost planted on the ground.

It's a very magical name.

Versace, why don't you call SAINT ANGELO!

"Who gave you that name?" Chen Xu asked curiously after standing firm and tidying up his clothes.

The young man was obviously a little confused by Chen Xu's sudden question, and he stayed for a few seconds before he came back to his senses and said again: "Hui Houye, this is the name taken by the villain's grandfather." ”

"Your grandfather is Fan Fan Gong?"

"No, Sizhe's grandfather's name is Fan Yue, and he is the same generation as the head of the family, Fan Yue." Versace said respectfully.

"I see, it seems that your grandfather was also a man who read poetry and books, and you have a good name!" Chen Xu praised.

"Don't dare, thank you for the compliment!" Versace arched his hand again and again, and then pointed to the beautiful woman beside him and said, "Master Hou, this is the clan sister Caiying!" ”

"Fan Caiying, a folk girl, meets Master Hou!" The beautiful woman stepped forward generously and saluted, and then a pair of beautiful eyes secretly looked at Chen Xu.

This woman wants to have a good look, a figure, and a voice that is crisp and pleasant, so beautiful, Chen Xu naturally couldn't help but look up and down at this beautiful woman who was a little unspeakable, and he actually felt a little excited.

This woman is different from all the women I have seen before, she has an extremely capable atmosphere, and Chen Xu seems to have seen from her the taste of a domineering female president who has been in the top position for a long time in later generations.

Versace and Fan Caiying came from afar, although their clothes were neat and tidy, they could see that there was a tired look on their faces, so Chen Xu smiled and arranged: "I'm tired all the way, arrange to wash and eat and drink first, and I'll talk about the rest later!" ”

"Thank you, Master Hou!" Versace breathed a sigh of relief, before coming, the Fan family repeatedly told him that he was extremely cautious when he saw Hou Ye, but now that he saw this young Hou Ye, who had already become famous, he found that he was not as arrogant and rude as he imagined along the way, but very kind and approachable.

Under the arrangement of Chen Ping and the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, dozens of guards, helpers and coachmen who came with the car were arranged to rest and eat, and Versace and Fan Caiying were also led to the guest room to wash and eat.

Half an hour later, Chen Ping brought Versace and Fan Caiying into Chen Xu's room.

After the two saluted again, they sat down, and after the maid served hot tea, Chen Xu said with a smile: "You Fan family did a good job this time, the emperor sent the emperor Nanyang is the fastest and the best, and I will ask for credit for your Fan family in front of the emperor when the time comes!" ”

Versace stood up and said excitedly: "It's all up to the cultivation of the Hou Ye, and my Fan family can get a big profit in the creation of the new horse pawn equipment this time, and the head of the family said when he came, he will definitely come to Xianyang to visit the Hou Ye, and there will be generous gifts!" ”

Chen Xu waved his hand and said: "There is no need for a big gift, after going back, let Fan Gong not slack off, in addition to this ten thousand sets of equipment, but also step up preparations, no accident Your Majesty will requisition a large number of again, this is a good opportunity to make money, and it is also a good opportunity for you businessmen to improve their reputation, as long as you do well, I will not be stingy with praise in front of the emperor, maybe then you Fan can also produce an official!" ”

"Really, thank you so much Master Hou!" Versace's face flushed with excitement.

"Sit down and say, how did Fan Gong arrange this time, how did I write last time and say that he arranged for someone to come to Xianyang to open a money bank? Can it be set up and running quickly? Chen Xu said after taking a sip of tea.

After Versace sat down, he was still excited: "Hou Ye, this time Si Zhe came to Xianyang, one is to send Hou Ye to ask for wine and vinegar, and the other is to open a money village, originally last year received Hou Ye's letter master began to arrange, but due to the preparation of the smelting and forging workshop affairs, it dragged on for two months, and now the matter of building equipment has been all smoothed, and the head of the family has prepared a full 10 million yuan from Wancheng, Luoyang, Daliang and other five money houses, and will arrange people to transport it one after another. This time, we brought a total of three million gold and copper coins, and all the preparations and operations of the Xianyang Money Village will be handled by the clan sister Caiying......"

After listening to Versace finish talking about this arrangement, Chen Xu shifted his gaze to the woman.

Fan Caiying was born in the Fan family of Nanyang today, was twenty years old, and was previously in charge of running a money village in Daliang, the capital of Wei.

In the era of Daqin, although the status of women is low, but it is very different from later generations, the women of the farmer's family also cultivate and weave, and the women of the Shangjia family also participate in the business, not like the later generations of Confucianism after the prosperity of various religious constraints, the door does not go out of the two doors can not show up, on the contrary, to do more work than men, even when conscription of conscription, when there are not enough men, healthy women will be recruited, in addition to the conscription of prisoners and slaves during the war, if there are not enough manpower, healthy women will also be recruited to transport grain and grass, Therefore, women are also an important part of nation-building and fighting wars in this era.

And the Qin Dynasty also has a very famous businesswoman, a widow named Qing, Ba County people, her husband's family is a local giant businessman, after the death of her husband, he took charge of the family, and further carried forward the family to become one of the seven richest people in the Warring States Period, and the widow Qing also became the only woman on the Forbes list of the Warring States Period, so Qin Shi Huang also specially met with the widow Qing, and also respected her, after the death of the widow Qing, a Huaiqing platform was specially built to commemorate her contributions and achievements.

But now, the widow Qing has been dead for several years.

After Chen Xu came to Xianyang, he also heard some folk versions of peachy stories that had to be told between this woman and the emperor, but in Chen Xu's opinion, it was all nonsense, because the palace of Qin Shi Huang was full of beauties, and Qin Da didn't seem to be very interested in women, the reason why he wanted to promote widow Qing with such fanfare was because Widow Qing specialized in smelting mercury, and the second was that Qin Shi Huang originally hoped that immortality needed lead and mercury alchemy, and his mausoleum also needed a lot of mercury, and the most important thing was to treat her as a banner of women's Joan of Arc. Encourage women to abide by women's morality, not to commit adultery, so as to encourage and regulate women's behavior, and also express their disgust for their mother's harem of fornication.

In the past, there was a widow in the Qing Dynasty's status in the business world, and women could also show their heads in the Qin Dynasty, so it was actually not uncommon for women like Fan Caiying to participate in business.

However, Xianyang is where the Great Qin Jingshi is located, and the merchants gather millions of people, which can be said to be the most important place for the vigorous development of Huaxia Qianzhuang in the future. And it's still a big beauty.

Chen Xu felt a little weird.

The three chatted for a while, and after Chen Xu asked some things about the business community in Nanyang, he wrote an excerpt, and stamped his seal and handed it to Versace.

"Take my warrant, and when you find a place to open a money bank, you will go to the Inner History Mansion and ask the officials to cooperate with the rapid delivery of the real estate deed!"

"Thank you Master Hou, with this warrant, the matter of preparing for the money bank will be much simpler!" Versace excitedly took the fold with both hands.

"Hehe, no, in fact, I am still the major shareholder of Qianzhuang, and I am also half of the host, these should be my own affairs, and the matter of opening Qianzhuang must be as soon as possible, but Xianyang is not Wancheng and Daliang, there are many princes and princesses, and there are many people, you must be careful in handling things, if you encounter something that cannot be solved, come to the Hou Mansion to find me, if I am not there, I will find Chen Steward, and I can temporarily live in the Qinghe Hotel recently, where it is convenient to eat and live......"

After giving the order, Chen Ping sent the two out, and Chen Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As the capital of Daqin, Xianyang must be the top priority of Huaxia Qianzhuang, but as a place where the ministers walk all over the place, there are many rich people like dogs, and under the eyes of the emperor, even if a businessman has a lot of money, he will never dare to go wild in Xianyang.

Therefore, Fan Yan discussed with Chen Xu several times, and did not come to Xianyang to open a money bank.

But now Chen Xu's status is not the same as in the past, as long as his name is reported in Xianyang, many things can be handled smoothly, if even he can't do it, it is estimated that the Manchu Dynasty civil and military will not be able to do it.

As long as the Huaxia money bank is opened, the matter of money will be easy to deal with in the future, and the most important thing is that he can let the emperor and the Manchu civil and military see the benefits, and also provide him with important weight for the implementation of currency reform in the future.

Today's Great Qin, whether it is the official or the people's transactions, is basically based on grain and cloth as an intermediary, copper money is almost dispensable, the function is not played at all, and to promote industrial development, to develop commerce, to develop the economy, currency reform is necessary.
