Chapter 197: Blatant

It is said that today is the day when Zhang Fan marries Luo Ling'er, but after all, it is a concubine, and the ceremony is formal, but it is not very grand, just like Zhang Fan now, wearing a gorgeous silk black robe, but with some red silk on it, so to say, for this reason, he also feels a little sorry for Luo Ling'er, after all, he used to treat her like that.

But when he saw Liu Shan walking towards him, Zhang Fan felt that his dress was too cold, and he saw that Liu Shan did not have any awareness of himself as a town guard eunuch, although he is only a eunuch now, but he is also the town guard of a prosperous Dazhou city in the south of the Yangtze River, although the grade is not very high, but its rights are very large, whether it is military or administrative, it can be intervened, it stands to reason that those who are eunuchs are more concerned about the eyes of others, after all, they have some shortcomings, is always afraid that others will laugh and despise them, so many eunuchs, after they have a little power, they are full of energy, always pay attention to their own image, for fear that they will be looked down upon by others for doing something that ignores etiquette.

But this Liu Shan is good, wearing a big robe, the color is very bright, and the whole body makes people look like a well-dressed lantern, and he almost has two candles on his head, as if today's groom official is not Zhang Fan but him, well, but well, this eunuch marries a concubine, although it is not nothing, but can it be like this...... Debatable, debatable.

Liu Shan's appearance made those who came to Zhang's house stunned, after all, Yangzhou City is big, but this Liu Shan's fame is so loud, how can this small Yangzhou City be trapped, including those businessmen present, there is really no one who doesn't know Liu Shan, and now, Liu Shan appeared in this image, which made everyone present be taken aback, and looked at Liu Shan, who was still smiling there calmly, almost dislocated his jaw, And Liu Shan himself turned a blind eye to these, and still smiled, as if those were just passing by, but he didn't have anything to worry about, after all, let alone Yangzhou City, even in the whole of Jiangsu, who dared to be disrespectful to him, so, how to say it, Liu Shan seems to be a little unscrupulous now.

"Father-in-law Liu, how can you be so happy," facing Liu Shan for a long time, Zhang Fan was speechless, he was a little frightened by Liu Shan's appearance, and he didn't know what to say for a long time.

"You...... You're okay," Sure enough, when Liu Shan heard Zhang Fan's words, he couldn't help but look Zhang Fan up and down, and touched Zhang Fan's forehead with his hand to see if he was suffering from the wind cold or something, "It's not hot, besides, it's still so hot this day, it's heat stroke,"

Zhang Fan listened to his words and was a little dizzy.

"Isn't today your big day, why are you still asking me why I'm so happy, my good brother-in-law," Liu Shan laughed and patted Zhang Fan's shoulder, reminding Zhang Fan of his current relationship.

"Yes, yes, what the eldest brother said is, it was the younger brother who didn't notice it for a while, was negligent, negligent," Zhang Fan hurriedly compensated Liu Shan, but he was really embarrassed in his heart.

"Alas, what's the big deal, brother-in-law, you must be very happy, a little too much for a while, negligent," where would Liu Shan care about these things, and also helped Zhang Fan to play a round game, as if he and Zhang Fan really became a family, "Don't talk about this, today is your big day, no, I personally sent this baby sister of mine, you have to treat her well in the future, if you bully her, don't blame me for being ruthless as a brother-in-law," It seems that Liu Shan is really happy today, I don't even need the title that can reflect my identity on weekdays, and I just "I".

"Yes, yes, what the eldest brother said is, the younger brother must keep it in mind," Zhang Fan hurriedly responded, the more he listened to Liu Shan's words now, the more he felt that something was wrong, after all, there were still many hidden secrets in this marriage, although he loved Luo Linger very much, but for this cheap brother-in-law, sooner or later he would be sent to the execution ground, and Zhang Fan hated Liu Shan very much from the bottom of his heart, and now that Liu Shan was so close to him, he was really a little uncomfortable, and just wanted to end the conversation with Liu Shan earlier, "Big brother, you see, it's not too early now, It's better to hurry up......"

"Yo, our groom is in a hurry," Liu Shan sneered, and said happily, "Don't panic, don't panic, no matter how anxious you are, this etiquette must be taken care of, it is difficult to make a hole now, and this dowry must be brought in first," When the word "dowry" was spoken, Liu Shan deliberately strengthened his tone, implying that there was something inside.

How could Zhang Fan not hear what Liu Shan meant, suddenly, his eyes lit up, he knew that Liu Shan had started to act, and it was blatant.

When Liu Shan saw Zhang Fan's appearance, he thought that his actions had achieved his goal, and he was immediately happy, but he obviously misunderstood Zhang Fan's meaning, Liu Shan immediately shouted outside the door: "Hurry up, bring me all the dowry in, delay my sister's happy event, I will let you go around without eating,"

Immediately, outside the door, there were several porters wrapped in red ribbons carrying more than ten boxes of "dowries" decorated with joy, large and small, and walked towards the courtyard of the Zhang family.

The people around, especially the many officials present saw this scene, and they also understood what Liu Shan meant, this was giving Zhang Fan a "dividend" from the beginning, and disguised these things as dowry, this trick is really too clever, if you don't know that there is a hidden secret, you will never be able to see anything else, Zhang Fan looked at these boxes that were constantly being carried in, and laughed from the inside out, these things can be regarded as evidence of Liu Shan's crime, and when he arrested Liu Shan, When the time comes, the more boxes that are carried in front of Longqing, the happier Longqing will definitely be, and as soon as Longqing is happy, the closer he will be to his dream.

Of course, if Zhang Fan wants to keep these things privately, it is estimated that no one will know, but he does not plan to do this, although he will have money in the future, especially the overseas plan that he has built in his heart after meeting Richard and Joanna, it must be very expensive, but Zhang Fan does not plan to think about it, after all, Longqing promised that there are forty percent of the stolen money confiscated, when Longqing said this, Zhang Fan was just surprised by this ratio, But when he knew the scale of this place and the amount of money involved, Zhang Fan's eyes widened and he couldn't believe it for a long time, he didn't believe that there was so much dirty silver, but he couldn't believe that he would get as much as forty percent, what a huge number it would be, doesn't this mean that if Zhang Fan really agreed to Liu Shan's request for cooperation and provided them with a protective umbrella, then Zhang Fan could get a huge amount of income every year, and with Zhang Fan's protection, Liu Shan and his people will do it for a longer time, and the scale will definitely get bigger and bigger, then Zhang Fan's income will be more and more, logically speaking, this is the best way for Zhang Fan to choose, but Zhang Fan will never do this, although he is not superstitious, but he still believes in karma, there is no impermeable wall in this world, the future generation of He Shen, will be greedy, although most of He Shen's money is earned by his own business, but He Shen's corruption is unique in history, What He Shen relied on, ingenuity, and tricks, it was not, it was Emperor Qianlong's favor and trust in him, but if you look at the ending of He Shen, it was not just a copy of the house, he was imprisoned, and in the end he was given death in prison by Emperor Jiaqing, Zhang Fan didn't think that if he did the same, the future outcome would be much better than that of He Shen, he was very conscious.

But now is not the time to think about this, this box of things is sent inside, many people see different things, the officials present see just that Zhang Fan has received a lot of benefits from Liu Shan, although they are envious, but they are not jealous, so many years of mixing in officialdom have made them understand a truth, how much ability they have, how much wealth they are qualified to enjoy, if it is beyond their ability, then the wealth will become a disaster, and Zhang Fan obviously has this ability in their eyes, Besides, almost all the officials present were Liu Shan's "subordinates", and they would naturally be happy to see Zhang Fan collect money, after all, this means that they will have a protective umbrella that can reach the sky to protect them from now on, so wouldn't they be more unscrupulous if they want to make money in the future.

The businessmen present were no stranger to this situation, and this kind of insight all year round made them not look down on or despise Zhang Fan at all, after all, in their eyes, it doesn't matter what means you play, what matters is how much silver you can get, and Zhang Fan can get this, in their eyes, not only did they not have a trace of unhappiness in watching the court officials bend the law, but in their hearts, there was a deep admiration for Zhang Fan, but this psychology slowly passed with time, and the figure of the porter who didn't stop in front of him, gradually became surprised, this Liu Shan is really a big deal, looking at the tired panting appearance of those porters, each box is estimated to be full of things, and they all understand the Qiankun here, Liu Shan sent definitely not only real money, but also some valuable objects.

Of course, there are also people who have reservations about this matter in front of them, that is naturally Zhang Yufang who does not know Zhang Fan's intentions, Zhang Yufang is Zhang Fan's uncle after all, although he and Zhang Fan have not known each other for a long time, but Zhang Fan's achievements have brought a lot of things to the Zhang family, Zhang Yufang also likes Zhang Fan very much, he knows that people who are officials are honest and honest and inevitable, otherwise how to climb up, of course, unless Xiang Hai Rui is like this, make "applauded or not", even if the emperor likes such an official, other ministers are against it, Then he can't go up, and now that he sees this scene, Zhang Fan didn't have the slightest intention of refusing, but still looked smiling, which made him a little worried, but before Zhang Yufang could think about how to talk to Zhang Fan about this matter, he was interrupted, because he was about to worship heaven and earth, Luo Ling'er had already appeared in front of everyone's eyes,
