Fang Zheng carried the little princess on his back, one big and one small wandered around the street all day, and finally sold out the dozens of invitations in his arms, and the objects of buying invitations were of course those rich businessmen and rich people who had silver but no identity, judging from their happy expressions, although the invitation card of five thousand taels of silver was expensive, it was definitely worth it for them, because this was undoubtedly a good opportunity to make friends with the scholar class, as long as they had the ability and means, they would not worry about not being able to get along. Just like the drinking party of the upper class in the previous life, regardless of whether you recognize it or not, when you meet, you clink glasses, talk a few words casually, promotion, sales and even cooperation, everything is possible, and the interests are moving, both ancient and modern.

The annual flower viewing party held by the prince, all the invited are officials in the court, the new branch of the scholars, or the highly prestigious talents and scholars in the people, this year's flower viewing will be Fang Zheng messed around, but the prince and the guests did not expect.

When they returned to the house, it was already the time to hold the lamp, the eldest and the younger didn't even eat dinner, so they hurriedly returned to the room, closed the door tightly, Fang Zheng and the little princess sat cross-legged on the bed.

The little princess's chubby little face was full of impatience, and she urged repeatedly: "Hurry up, hurry up!" Take it all out! ”

Fang Zheng grinned, reached into his arms, and took out a large stack of silver tickets, with denominations ranging from one thousand taels to five thousand taels. A thick stack of silver tickets was stacked between the two, exuding a soft and friendly silver light.

The two opened their mouths wide in a daze, staring at the pile of wealth that already belonged to them in amazement, and they were stunned for a moment.

One is the noble little princess of the Hua Dynasty, and the other is the only son of the richest man in the Hua Dynasty, if the two have never seen such a large sum of money, it is not enough, but this money is earned by their own hands, then the meaning is different. The two of them set off in the morning, and have been wandering around the street, seeing people dressed in wealth and wealth, they came forward to peddle, singing and cooperating with tacit understanding, from the first silver ticket to the invitation, until all the invitations were sold out, the two of them experienced the process from scratch, so at this moment they saw this pile of hard-earned money, and they felt a lot of emotion in their hearts.

Fang Zheng was the first to come back to his senses, closed his mouth, and saw that the little princess was still staring at the silver ticket with her eyes shining, and her pink little mouth was uncontrollable due to her emotions, and a trace of crystal clear saliva had already flowed, slowly dripping on her cute pink palace dress.

Fang Zheng couldn't help but feel a burst of contempt in his heart. This little money fan, only five years old, loves money to this child, how can he get it when he grows up?

"Hey! Little princess, little princess! Wake up! Fang Zheng shook her shoulders and finally woke up the little princess whose brain was empty.

The little princess wiped her saliva absently, slapped her fleshy little palm fiercely, and shouted in a milky voice: "Quick! Divide the money! ”

I really doubt that this little guy is in the wrong place, look at this appearance, it is estimated that she will be a female thief who sits on the ground and shares the spoils, and may be more promising, after all, she has been talented since she was a child, revealing an extraordinary robbery specialty.

"Little princess, you are still young, it is not safe to hold so much silver, why don't you hand it over to me to help you keep it? I promise not to spend your money. Fang Zheng salivated and smiled, trying to snatch food.

The little princess glanced at him obliquely, with a childish little face, and said slowly: "...... I'm young, but I'm not stupid. ”

“…………”

Licking his fingers and classifying the silver tickets of various denominations, Fang Zheng began to divide the spoils.

"You one, me one, me one, you one, me one, or me one......"

"Stop!" The little princess stared at him fiercely, her fleshy little fists clenched tightly, and her eyes were full of resentment: "You are wrong!" It's shameful to fool children, do you know? ”

The little guy is very sensitive when it comes to money-related things.

Fang Zheng blushed secretly, and then quickly returned to normal, "That's right, it's so ......"

"You got an extra one!"

“…… Then I'll re-divide it. ”

"Okay."

"One for me, one for you, one for me, or one for me......"

"That's not right! Why are you like this! ”

"Okay, I'll re-divide it. …… You're one, I'm one, and I'm ......"

"That's not right! If you do this again, I'll tell my sister to go! ”

“…………”

“…………”

It took more than half an hour, and the two finally finished dividing the spoils, which was fair and reasonable, and Tong Suo was not bullied.

Counting, this time the business of reselling invitations is quite profitable, each person has more than 80,000 taels, Fang Zheng no longer has to worry about running out of money to spend in a short time, and there is no need to pick and choose the embezzlement of public funds, and the little princess has also added a heavy sum to her future dowry, and the two of them have their own income, and they are all happy. If there is champagne in this era, Fang Zheng really wants to open a bottle to celebrate, and it will not be easy to find such a project with no money in the future.

They each patted their bulging purses, and the two wealth fans looked at each other and smiled, high-fived each other.

"Do you also want to participate in the prince's brother's flower viewing party?" After the spoils were divided, the little princess regained her innocent and lovely image, and there was no clue to the appearance of being vicious and viciously shouting for the money.

"That's right, I promised His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to go, people can't break their promise." Fang Zheng said absent-mindedly.

He was thinking about how to distribute this windfall, Yan Ran wanted to send some settling-in money, after all, he was the head of the family, Xiao Lu had to buy her an expensive small gift, Sister Feng asked her if she was still short of money to invest, Changping, well, Changping is richer than me, so I won't bother anymore......

"But...... Aren't all your invitations sold out? How do you get in to the cherry blossom viewing party? The little princess asked curiously with big clear eyes.

“………… No way! Why didn't you remind me? ”

"Why should I remind you? If you sell one less invitation, won't I have to earn more than two thousand taels of silver? The little princess smiled slyly, like a little fox who had stolen a chicken.

“…………”

----------------------

After lunch the next day, Fang Zheng personally sent the little princess who returned with a full load into the palace.

When I returned home, I happened to meet Wen Sen to report that on the day that Princess Changping made trouble in the Pan Mansion, Wen Sen took advantage of the chaos to send several capable men to sneak into the Pan Mansion smoothly, and is currently waiting for the news of their return.

"It's been days, and they've been lurking in the Pan Mansion?" Fang Zheng's eyes widened in disbelief, he thought that the so-called investigation of intelligence was just to find a hidden place, pricked up his ears and listened and ran back to report, didn't he act like this in movies and television in his previous life? That doesn't seem to be the case at all today.

Vinson smiled: "Of course, time is pressing, there is no time to mix in the identity of the following people, the brothers are just like rats, lurking in inconspicuous places, once they meet the patrolling nursing home, they will find a way to hide well, survive a few days, and it will be easy to get familiar with the terrain." ”

"What if I find out?"

Vinson looked helpless: "If you can run, you can run, if you can't run, you can only die." And there is an agreement between the brothers that they are not allowed to involve others because they are discovered, and once they are discovered, they must find a way to lead the enemy away, and it is better to kill one person than a group of people. However, it is generally not easy to be detected, and the most difficult to hide is the patrol dogs, those beasts have special noses, and they are the natural enemies of our industry. ”

Fang Zheng was shocked: "Dog? yes, I didn't think of that. Wouldn't our brothers be doomed to death if they went in? "The big families all have dogs to watch the house, ranging from a few to a dozen, as long as they are pulled out for a walk, the shadow subordinates have a great chance of being discovered.

"It's not that serious." Vinson laughed, "Before the brothers went in, they rubbed a special potion on their bodies to numb the dog's nose. As long as the dog holds its breath and does not move when passing by, it is still not easy to be detected. ”

"Then what should they do when they eat and go to the thatched house?" Fang Zheng now knew that he didn't know anything about the nature of the work of this group of subordinates, and this boss was too unqualified.

"Before sneaking in, they all brought a little dry food, untie their hands, try to endure it if they can, and if they can't bear it, they can only find a place where no one can solve it as soon as possible, and if they can't find a place, it's a very common thing to pull it in their pants. Anyway, the premise of everything is that you must not expose yourself. Vinson's tone was flat, as if he were talking about the good weather today.

Vinson said sadly, "...... In the past, there were hundreds of our old brothers, and at that time, if the emperor wanted to get any information, as long as he gave an order, the brothers never disappointed the emperor. Now it can't be done, more and more brothers have died in the line of duty, and in the end, only a few dozen of us are left, and it is not as easy for the emperor to get any news now......"

After speaking, Wen Sen's face was faintly ashamed, as if he felt guilty because he couldn't share his worries for the emperor.

Fang Zheng's mouth opened wide in surprise, he now realized that these dozens of shadows under his command were such a valuable group of spy talents, he had never looked at them too much before, and he always thought that the thief and thief could do it by listening to the intelligence. Now it seems that being a spy is not easy.

Patting Wen Sen's shoulder, Fang Zheng said in a deep voice: "I have decided that from today onwards, our shadow brother's monthly silver will be doubled, no, just make up a whole number, ten taels of silver per month!" After completing the task, the bonus is calculated separately, not less than fifty taels, and there is no upper limit, and the brother who died in the line of duty, our shadow is responsible for supporting his family for life. ”

Wen Sen was overjoyed when he heard this, and he wanted to bow down as soon as his knees bent, but Fang Zheng grabbed him: "Don't make these false tricks, I don't like them." ”

Wen Sen's eyes were red with gratitude, and he choked up, "Those old brothers in my subordinates thank Lord Fang for their kindness!" The brothers followed you, it is our previous life to cultivate the blessings, my lord, you can rest assured, from now on, the shadow brothers will go to the soup for you, in the ......"

"Come on, save some saliva." Fang Zheng interrupted him with a smile, "Sensei is loyal to me, and I will be satisfied with every errand." Tell me, how is the base outside the city repaired? ”

Vincent smiled: "It's almost repaired, and it will be able to live in less than ten days, my lord, do we have to start recruiting new people?" The emperor is in a hurry. ”

Fang Zheng nodded and said: "Yes, you go and do this immediately, the first batch of five hundred people will be selected, people from all walks of life will have to do it, remember, the net worth must be clean, check the three generations, the net worth is not innocent, no matter how good the qualifications are, we can't ask for it." The old brothers each took ten apprentices and hurried to train this group of people. I'll find a good teacher and teach them the art of fighting, and if someone finds out in the future, they can't apply oil barefoot, wouldn't it be better to be able to kill the enemy? ”

Fang Zheng felt that he couldn't just develop the shadow into an agency for intelligence exploration, what was the difference between that and the beggar gang in martial arts? The beggars still have eighteen palms of dragon descending. He wants to train every member of the shadow agency into an ancient special forces, a special type of talent who combines the skills of lurking, spying, probing, stealing camps, assassination, etc., if there is such a powerful force in his own hands in the future, who will not swallow his anger and accept it if he goes to the street to molest women from good families in the future? Dare to bare your teeth and destroy him!

Wen Sengong claimed that it was, and wrote down Fang Zheng's orders one by one.

"Hey, old Wen, do you have to treat yourself to a salary increase?" After finishing speaking, Fang Zheng suddenly asked with a smile.

Wen Sen was stunned, and then immediately laughed with a smile: "Of course, of course, Lord Fang has Yaxing, even if you pick a place, your subordinates will definitely serve you thoughtfully......"

Fang Zheng touched his chin and thought for a while, then muttered, "Hmm...... The Eight Treasures Banquet of Inviting the Moon is good, I had a meal with Xiao Huaiyuan last time, and it was only a table of more than 100 taels of silver in total......"

"Plop!"

"What's wrong with you?"

Vinson wiped his sweat and forced a smile, "...... Nothing, eight...... Eight Treasures Feast, no problem! Subordinates, please! "Find a few old brothers who know each other well, and you should be able to afford to eat.

Fang Zheng glanced at Wen Sen: "No energy!" Am I like that kind of shameless person who blackmails his subordinates? Go, call all the old brothers who have not been out of the task, invite the moon tonight, Lord Ben invites everyone to eat the Eight Treasures Banquet, the wine and meat are full, open to eat and drink, and find the young lady to accompany the wine at your own expense. ”

Young Master Fang can't save the silver in hand, and if he has money, he wants to spend the money, not to mention that he has a good relationship with the old brother of the shadow, which is also very important for his future, a few hundred taels of silver to hold a few tables of banquets, which has brought the relationship between his superiors and subordinates closer, and bought people's hearts, why not?

Pan Shang Shu Mansion.

The night was deep, and the lamp was still lit in Pan Shangshu's study.

Lin Qingshan stood beside Pan Shangshu respectfully, half-hanging his head, and the corner of his eye secretly observed Lao Shangshu's expression.

Pan Shangshu's face was calm, and a pair of cloudy old eyes stared at the faltering oil lamp on the desk.

Lin Qingshan stretched out his hand and turned the wick in the oil lamp a little, the entire study looked a lot brighter, and it also illuminated Pan Shangshu's old face full of wrinkles and old age spots more clearly.

Lao Shangshu is still old after all! Lin Qingshan sighed silently in his heart.

"How are you doing these days?" Pan Shangshu broke the silence and asked, asking very vaguely, perhaps subconsciously he was very disgusted with the word "rebellion", although he was intensively planning this matter, he had been reluctant to say it too bluntly, as if he could get some comfort in this way, at least on the surface to maintain the dignity of a "loyal minister", similar to a kind of psychology of covering his ears and stealing the bell.

"Back to the boss's words, my subordinates recently secretly visited 37 officials of the fourth grade and above who leaned towards our department in the DPRK and China, and quietly tested their attitudes, and found that there were 28 people who were completely loyal to the boss, and the remaining nine officials were all vague and wavering."

Pan Shangshu stroked his beard and smiled conceitedly, he was not mistaken, half of the officials in the world came from his disciples, so that many officials in the Chinese Dynasty now only know Pan Enshi, but do not know that there is an emperor, with such a strong foundation of scholars, major events can be decided.

"What do those family gate valves say?" Pan Shangshu's smile quickly retracted, now is not the time to laugh, the closer to success, the more dangerous it is.

The Hua Dynasty, like all feudal dynasties, had clear barriers to the ruling class, including the scholars of the Han family who jumped over the dragon gate through the imperial examination, the official eunuch families who had been officials for generations, and some of the few but powerful families. But whether in the court or in the people, their energy is not to be underestimated, when the heyday buried in the accumulation of contacts and wealth, in the troubled times these families are fully capable of ascending to the heights, making waves, gathering the people into soldiers, watching the artifact.

What Pan Shangshu cares about most now is not the officials in the court who disobey him, but these family lords who usually look wilted, but have the ability to give him a fatal blow at the critical moment, and their attitude determines whether they can sit on the throne that everyone is crazy about.

"Back to the old man's words, those family lords have different attitudes, some things are not their own business, some are cold bystanders, and some also say that it doesn't matter what Jiangshan's surname is, as long as it doesn't affect their family, they don't care."

Looking at Pan Shangshu's expression of wanting to speak and stopping, Lin Qingshan hurriedly added: "Don't worry, my lord, the people under the door are all the core people who can handle things in these families, and the words are very vague, and they will never leak out." Thanks to the fact that the boss has maintained a good relationship with them for many years, many families are very optimistic about the boss. ”

Pan Shangshu's expression was obviously relaxed, he half leaned back in the chair, and closed his eyes in satisfaction and fell asleep.

Lin Qingshan pursed his lips a few times, and couldn't help but ask, "I don't know ...... the boss and those generals in the army?"

"Hehe, Qingshan, just do your own thing, other old men have their own opinions." Pan Shangshu didn't open his eyes, and said with a smile.

Lin Qingshan said respectfully, he understood that although he was now tied to the same boat as the boss, with the character of the boss, he would never have no reservations about anyone, even the people he trusted the most.

Suddenly opened his eyes, Pan Shangshu's old eyes were shining, and he asked in a deep voice, "What have the two of them been doing recently?" ”

Lin Qingshan has always been very strange, the prince is not enough, why would the old man pay so much attention to the movements of Fang Zheng, a courtier in front of the emperor, just a pawn who has nothing to do with the overall situation, what is worth paying attention to?

Disdainful in his heart, Lin Qingshan still said respectfully: "Xiao Huaiyuan has news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been busy preparing for the flower viewing party recently, and it seems that he doesn't care about the world, and he seems to be unaware of the current situation in Beijing. As for Fang Zheng, his subordinates have sent someone to keep an eye on him, this person is abducted and deceived every day, eating, drinking and having fun, and he really doesn't know ......"

Before he finished speaking, there was a "click" sound outside the window, Lin Qingshan stood up violently, and shouted vigilantly: "Who is outside?" ”

Then came the barking of dogs, and a patrol of guards banged gongs from far and near, shouting, "Catch the assassin!" ”

Lin Qingshan turned around, but he was taken aback, the old man who had always been in front of Mount Tai and did not change his face changed his face on the other day, at this moment he was like a habitual thief who was caught red-handed, his face was pale, cold sweat was dripping, a pair of cloudy old eyes were full of horror, and he muttered in his mouth: "...... Who? Who sent this man? Could it be that he has already discovered our conspiracy? It's not good, it's not good......"

Then Pan Shangshu bounced up from his chair, his movements were so agile that he didn't look like an old man in his last years, and he commanded sharply: "Quick! Fast! Be sure to catch this person, live or die! Don't let him escape from the house! At this time, Pan Shangshu seemed to be crazy, looking hysterical, his old eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes were wide open, just like a prisoner looking at the ghost head knife that was about to fall before his execution, full of fear and despair.

Lin Qingshan's heart froze, he knew that if the matter he had discussed with the boss just now leaked out, it would cause a great disaster, and he didn't have time to salute, Lin Qingshan hurriedly ran out of the study to deploy the nursing home.

Pan Shangshu seemed to be paralyzed, sitting on the chair, his body kept trembling, fear gradually enveloped his heart, he stared at the oil lamp on the desk in a distracted manner, the wick that had just been turned on, once burned, the light gradually weakened, and suddenly a slight night breeze blew outside, the light as small as a soybean, shook a few times, and finally couldn't resist the light breeze of the night wind, and went out.

Pan Shangshu in the dark couldn't help but shiver, and suddenly screamed. The screams echoed in the sky over Pan's Mansion in the middle of the night, like a trapped beast in a cage, miserable and desperate.

At the same time, Young Master Fang was hooking Wen Sen's shoulders and walking out of Invite Yue with a wine burp and satisfaction. The two of them were followed by more than thirty shadow subordinates, all of them with oily faces, looking like they were full of food and drink, and even Zhao Feng'er, the only woman in the shadows, had a red face, and it seemed that she had drunk a lot of wine.

The emotional exchange with the subordinates was very successful and successful. In this era, it is not said that if you give enough money, others will do their best to work for you, from ancient times to the present, between superiors and subordinates, in addition to the necessary profit drive, emotional investment is the most important. The ancients had a saying that "a scholar dies for his confidant", your confidant is not good at making good friends with others on weekdays, just knowing how to throw silver, why do others have to die for you? Do you want to die for all this little money you spent? How much is a hit?

Fang Zheng is a person who is very good at dealing with people, today he invited the moon to treat, he toasted one by one with a wine glass, and asked them one by one, what difficulties they have, what care they need, what difficulties they can't solve in life, etc., a cadre of subordinates was so moved that their eyes were red, and several gentlemen couldn't help but cry on the spot, and their mouths were full of words, they had cultivated good fortunes in their previous lives, and in this life they followed Master Fang who treated them so kindly......

Fang Zheng's meal finally made the shadows die for him, and they were loyal for life from then on.

However, the sequelae was that ,—— Young Master Fang was finally drunk. He was drunk, and he understood what it meant to win the allegiance of this group to him. After coming to this era for so long, he finally reached out and touched the power that truly belonged to him, although this power was currently shared with the emperor, but he was confident that sooner or later, one day, it would be completely his own.

"Old Wen...... You, you say, Lord Ben...... Handsome, not handsome? Fang Zheng asked with his tongue wide open and the smell of wine in his mouth.

Vincent was also a little drunk, and said with a smile: "The adults are handsome, handsome and invincible in the world......"

Fang Zheng nodded in agreement, and said distressedly: "Yes, Lord Ben...... Shuai Cheng is like this...... Don't, how can others live......"

“…………”

The two supported each other, and suddenly a shadow subordinate who was not drunk stepped forward quietly, and said in a low voice: "Lord Fang, there are people following behind us, may I ask what the adults should do?" ”

Fang Zheng looked back and saw that a few feet away from them, a short man in civilian clothes was walking behind them unhurriedly, his eyes staring at them, his bones spinning. As the weather turned cooler and the autumn wind at night was very cold, this person wore a coarse cloth coat backwards to resist the oncoming cold wind.

Fang Zheng became angry when he heard that someone was following them. Who are we? It's an old connoisseur who relies on tracking to find out what to eat, which one who is not long-sighted dares to send someone to follow us? Isn't this selling articles in front of Confucius, playing big knives in front of Guan Erye, and collecting water bills in front of the director of the waterworks?

"Damn! All...... All go up and put that ...... Catch that dog's day! "Young Master Fang, who drank the wine, didn't speak very well, but everyone understood the meaning, and when they heard the words, they immediately rushed up.

When the short man who was following them saw the group of people turn their heads at the same time, he knew that something was wrong, and immediately turned around and ran. The shadows had just shown their loyalty in front of their bosses, and now it was the time to show the picture, when they saw the short man turn around and run, a large group of people chased after him, shouting and standing while chasing, like the Hong Kong police in the previous life catching thieves, thinking that he would really stand if he stopped shouting.

I also blamed the short man for his bad luck, he panicked and just looked at the pursuers behind, but he didn't want to meet a carriage galloping head-on, the short man hit it impartially, his body involuntarily rebounded back, fell heavily to the ground, and passed out.

When Fang Zheng and Wen Sen caught up, they saw the scene of a car accident in front of them.

Seeing that the fainted kid's body was lying in a strange position, his hands were twisted behind his back and raised to the sky, but his head was facing the ground, Fang Zheng and Wen Sen both drank too much wine, and they didn't see it clearly for a while, but they didn't know that this person was deliberately wearing his clothes backwards, and he thought that his body was deformed by being hit.

With two smacks, Vincent crouched down and sighed, "...... What a serious car accident. ”

Fang Zheng also nodded and said, "Yes, my head hit the back." ”

Vincent tested his breath and said, "My lord, he's still breathing." …… Let's help him turn his head right. ”

"Good,...... Come, one, two, three! Go hard! I only heard a "click" and turned around.

“…………”

"Well, no breathing......"

------------ the following does not count as money-------------

Today I feel that the small universe is a lot stronger than usual, and I will count the words after the code, ho, 7000 words! Records were broken.

For the sake of my diligence, brothers, come to a few monthly passes, thank you!
