Chapter 216: Undercurrents are surging

Zhang Fan is a little troubled now. Although what bothered him was not a big deal. But. But it also made him think about it for a long time.

I'm going to Liu Shan's house tomorrow to do that fake showdown. Zhang Fan should be ready now. Prepare for the battle that lies ahead tomorrow. But that's a good point. The worker wants to do his job well. You have to sharpen your tools first. There are some things that still need to be prepared. And it's these things. What annoyed Zhang Fan was very much.

Tomorrow. Zhang Fan, who went to Liu's Mansion as a gift of returning to the door, must not be empty-handed. But how should this gift be given? What should be sent. Zhang Fan didn't know.

It stands to reason. It would have been a very simple matter. Even those of the big families. Dignitaries. I don't bother with that. Sending some valuable items is over. But Zhang Fan was a little confused.

Yesterday. Liu Shan's dowry really surprised Zhang Fan again for a while. It is said that he has been surprised many times by the things that Liu Shan gave him. But it seems every time. There will be something new that will surprise him again. Early this morning. Zhang Fan asked people to take stock of those dowries. Hehe. This is another incredible number. It's just that Zhang Fan was surprised at the same time. But I also think it's a bit taken for granted. It is natural to take it for granted that he is now in Liu Shan's camp. made their umbrella. can be regarded as the official of Liu Shan's gang. And Liu Shan, the new subordinate. Naturally, I want to have a good time, Zhang Fan is such a trusted official.

And the surprise side. Zhang Fan had previously estimated the scale of Liu Shan's group and the dirty silver involved. Although every time. Zhang Fan is going to take care of it. But it seems like every time. Liu Shan will give him new "surprises". This feeling of "surprise". made Zhang Fan surprised from the beginning. Now it's time to look at it calmly. It's just that there is still surprise in my heart.

Therefore. Now the problem arises. Liu Shan brought himself these things. And going to his house by himself is also to show one or two. But. Seem. Compared to what Liu Shan sent. Zhang Fan looked a little ...... when he brought anything Shabby. That's right. It's shabby. Zhang Fan had never been in this situation before. Or rather, to be more precise. He also visited some people. There are times when you need to give gifts. But this has never been the case.

Go to Liu Shan. You also have to show that you have a good impression of him. Then the only word. It's just expensive. But. Now Zhang Fan. Go there and find something valuable. This is a valuable thing that can be found in Yangzhou City. seems to have been caught by Liu Shan. Packed and delivered to him. You can't just send money. Not to mention that it is vulgar to the extreme. And one comes. This seems to be a bit of a disdain. In the past, most of the people who sent money directly were eunuchs. But Liu Shan, such a eunuch, is unusual. So. The way to send money directly is broken; Second. Zhang Fan is still thinking about sending money directly to Liu Shan. Does it make him feel unpleasant about himself? That's not what Zhang Fan wants to see.

So. At noon, after finalizing the plan for tomorrow with Wang Meng. Zhang Fan began to prepare for this ordinary thing. He thought about it. Found a direction. That's expensive. It's not. Liang Chao, who he sent to prepare things just now, was also bumped into by Zhu Yijun.

This one is a valuable word. Zhang Fan also gave a definition. He doesn't ask for prestige. There doesn't have to be any historical origin or anything like that. Even if it's not very famous. Or something that has just been made by craftsmen. It doesn't matter. But there is one. Zhang Fan set the rules. That is, things have to look expensive. I think it took a lot of silver to get it. That's it.

This is also a method that Zhang Fan came up with in desperation. He didn't know what else to do.

The rest is. Zhang Fan began to think about how to get the account books from Liu Shan. Fittest. He already had some ideas in his mind. and also discussed with Wang Meng and the two for a long time. Right now. He also had to think about things in a complete way. Make sure you can't go wrong. If all goes well. Tomorrow on Liu Shan Mansion. You can make it all over.

This way. Zhang Fan is thinking about a plan to arrest people. And Liu Shan, the object of Zhang Fan's coveting. But he was not idle.

Liu Shan is a little proud these days. After all, his path to death and afterlife seemed to him to be the right choice. Zhang Fan, in his eyes, looked young and vigorous in the court because of his youthful ambition, but he still didn't have enough concentration. still fell into the ambush he had set up. After Luo Ling'er was officially given to Zhang Fan yesterday. Liu Shan was even more relieved. It's not that he thinks that a Luo Ling'er can help him tie up Zhang Fan. He Liu Shan is except for himself. Never trusted anyone. Especially women. And Luo Ling'er is already a rag in his eyes. It's just something that can make use of some residual heat. It is even more untrustworthy.

Luo Linger said to Liu Shan. It's just a stepping stone. This stepping stone has been used by Liu Shan, and I don't know how many times. No matter how tightly the other party's door is closed. It doesn't matter how strong that gate is. Liu Shan would not hesitate to pick up Luo Ling'er. Smash it over. Anyway, it won't hurt himself. What is there for him to be afraid of? It was nothing more than the stepping stone that was damaged. It's just a prop. Props don't feel anything. Even if there is. As a human being, he doesn't need to care. It's that simple.

really made Liu Shan feel that he had already made Zhang Fan tempted. And he was willing to give up the task assigned to him by Longqing for his sake. It's still the money. Liu Shan. How to say it. In the words of five hundred years later. It's pragmatism. Everything is based on the achievement of the ultimate goal. No matter what happens along the way. It doesn't matter how much it costs to achieve the goal. As long as the end result is satisfactory to you. Make yourself safe. Let yourself still have to earn. Then it will be done. Liu Shan. That's what a pragmatist.

But. Liu Shan's belief in these does not mean that he is a fool. That's all I have in my heart. Think the opposite. He's smart. There are many things he still understands. Say. It's easy to buy a person with money. It doesn't matter who he is. This method has not failed so far. And he is most proud of the recent one. He successfully bought Zhang Fan. Although it cost him a lot of silver. Although even if he was ready to send money to Zhang Fan. But he also took a huge risk of being caught red-handed. But. At least Liu Shan looks at it. This time I succeeded. This success was for him. It's not just a tough time. It's for his Liu Shan's future. Found a good backer. Although the cost will not be less in the future. But Liu Shan felt that it was very worthwhile.

And Liu Shan also understands this other truth. This kind of relationship between silver buying is very unreliable. Maybe. In the beginning. Needless to say, that's self-explanatory. The party who received the money will do everything agreed upon. But for a long time. That's a bit hard to say. Maybe the parties will demand more money for themselves. Maybe the other party has found a financier who is more generous than himself. Of course. The latter point. Liu Shan believes that it will not happen. After all, in today's Ming Dynasty. Someone who can give Zhang Fan more money than himself. I'm afraid there aren't many.

But Liu Shan would not be so stupid as to think that he had occupied the commanding heights. There was nothing left to threaten him. After all, a lot of things. It's not something that can be measured by money alone. Of course. If you insist on putting a price on those things. You can also. But the value of those things. Compared to those things that smell of copper. No matter how many there are, they can't be compared. Let's say power or politics. Although these two are compared to the money that is not self-conscious. It stinks even more. But. People just like to go for that.

Liu Shan, who understands these truths. Nature is knowing. Even if they have joined forces with old friends for many years. Even if it's a childhood sweetheart. Even brothers. There are some things that you can't fully believe. From this point of view, the term "righteous annihilation" is not entirely for the general interests of the country and the nation. It's more for their own righteousness.

For these. People understand it very well. But there is no way to avoid it. You can only minimize the damage.

That's what Liu Shan is doing now. He's preparing something. Even now. It seems that he has seen a beautiful future. There will be no relaxation in the current situation. Even today's Zhang Fan seems to have no hostility towards himself at all. After all, if Zhang Fan really wants to continue to deal with him. It seems that it is already somewhat unnecessary. Zhang Fan has already mastered a lot of Liu Shan's situation. If you want to catch it. It's long past been done. But Zhang Fan didn't move for a long time. This reassured him a little. But he's always worried. Zhang Fan might suddenly come out and bite himself at some point. He didn't want that.

Liu Shan's preparations. It's not like leaving a way out for yourself or something. He understood. Once Zhang Fan repented halfway. Then he himself has absolutely no way back for him to escape. What he is preparing is a method of breaking the net. Once something happened to Liu Shan, something happened to him. Then he will never let others have a good time. Dead have to pull a few pads.

This perverted mentality. Sounds a little irrational. Something crazy. But. People live in this world. How can you make yourself white and immaculate? Liu Shan. Ultimately. It's just a portrayal of this world.
