Chapter 498: Apostasy
Fan Yongdou's face was expressionless when he heard this, and only after half a sound did he say: "Zai Xia has never denied that Zhang Han is really capable, but from Zaixia's position, he really only has hatred for this person, and all the distribution must be said after fighting this person...... There are a total of eight Jin merchants in Zhangjiakou, and the total assets are millions, if they are done well, they may not be worse than that Zhang Han......"
Zhang Yongan actually didn't have much intention, he just felt it, and seeing Fan Yongdou's reaction so much, Zhang Yongan smiled slightly, and then revealed the topic and asked about Li Mingda instead.
"Mingda has followed me for nearly twenty years," Fan Yongdou said: "Later, I lost to Zhang Han, and my subordinates scattered for a while, Mingda waited for me for a long time, and then I heard that life was embarrassing, and I had no choice but to do things for Zhang Han, but I dared to pack a ticket, as long as I arrived, he would follow us." β
Zhang Yongan wanted to say that current affairs are changing, and people's hearts are unpredictable, but he can see that Fan Yongdou is a person with too strong self-esteem and is not easy to speak, so he smiled at the moment and only said: "Fan Dongzhu is so sure, that's the best, let's do this well, with Li Mingda cooperating with Zhang Xuzong, it is not an isolated evidence, and the twist and turn will shake the center, after this big excitement, the pattern of Datong Xuanfu and even Taiyuan will be different." β
The two talked and talked, and after a while, they arrived at the place where Heyusheng's branch was located.
Li Mingda is the shopkeeper of the branch and the director of the Ningwu Chamber of Commerce, and he is a leading celebrity in the city.
"Comptoirs or chambers of commerce can't go." Zhang Yong comforted Su Zan and said: "There are many people, and if there is anything wrong, it is easy to have an accident." β
Fan Yongdou listened to Zhang Yongan's meaning, but he still didn't believe that Li Mingda could serve him, and there was a sulk in his heart, which was difficult to dissipate.
In the past two years, Fan Yongdou has been thinking about revenge every day, and there have been a few times when he also felt bored, and he was also shocked and intimidated by the changes that Zhang Han brought to the place, and was shocked by Heyusheng's huge foundation and strength, but no matter what, Fan Yongdou just couldn't let go of the hatred in his heart.
Because of hatred, he chose to cooperate with Wang Dengku and others, risking smuggling, these Jin merchants are all shrewd goods who squeeze oil from stones, the key is that the skin is thick and black, it was impossible for Fan Yongdou to cooperate with them before, in order to take revenge, he no longer cares about anything else.
Fan Yongdou's wife has chosen to become a monk at home because she can't get used to what he does, and has become a layman.
Fan Yongdou did everything for revenge, thinking that Zhang Han was about to end up in a miserable end, his eyes lit up, and he was even more determined to win Li Mingda.
Everyone rushed to Li Mingda's residence, this is a quiet small courtyard, looking through the door from the door, there are a lot of flowers and plants planted in the courtyard, and the design is very quiet and elegant.
Zhang Mingda said casually: "Fan Dongdou, the old department, is an elegant person. β
Fan Yongdou didn't say anything, he remembered that Li Mingda only knew how to read the account book, and this yard was not necessarily cleaned up by him, he felt that Li Mingda had indeed changed here, and he was faintly worried in his heart.
"Fan Dongzhu?"
It was already afternoon for Fan Yongdou and the others to enter the city, and they deliberately found a teahouse and delayed for a while, and now it was almost dusk, and there was a burst of food aroma in the courtyard of Li's house.
"Nothing has changed, has it?" Zhang Yongan and his people have secretly surrounded the courtyard of the Li family, and there are some pedestrians passing by, after all, this is the best area in Ningwu City, and most of the people living around are the homes of dignitaries and rich gentry in the city, Zhang Yongan doesn't care what Fan Yongdou thinks, anyway, be careful.
Several errand officers said: "I don't see anything, no one in the Li family goes out, and there is no back door, we are all guarding the courtyard wall, we are not afraid of people turning out, and no one is calling or anything, please rest assured Master Zhang." β
Only then did Zhang Yongan settle down, and looked coldly at Fan Yongdou and Li Mingda greeting each other.
Fan Yongdou said: "Lao Li, it's been almost two years. β
Li Mingda said with some shame: "The proprietor, in order to eat, I have to do things for He Yusheng......"
Fan Yongdou looked moved, waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about this, I came today to discuss something with you, if I mind, will I come over?" β
Li Mingda said happily: "Proprietor, you just cooked a meal, you have calculated a coincidence, just drink a few more cups." β
Fan Yongdou pretended to ask casually, "You cleaned up this yard?" It's exquisite, too. β
Li Mingda said: "How can I have this ability? This is the chamber of commerce a Zhishi old imperial history of the courtyard, he wanted to invest money in and Yusheng, for a short time, sold this courtyard to the firm, and gave it to me to live, I want to live in this courtyard, I am afraid of how many more years. β
Fan Yongdou was relieved when he heard this, and said casually: "You don't get much from Yusheng?" β
"Don't hide it from the proprietor, there is some silver, but there are many things and expenses, and I can't tell you clearly for a while......"
At this time, Zhang Yongan came in with two attachΓ©s, but he was careful and refused to come in by himself.
Fan Yongdou was unhappy in his heart, but he still had a smile on his face, and introduced: "Lao Li, this is proprietor Zhang, my business partner in Zhangjiakou, this time I came to Ningwu to find some way, and proprietor Zhang came with me." β
Zhang Yongan smiled and said, "There is a shopkeeper of Lao Li." β
Li Mingda hurriedly bowed down and said: "Don't dare, proprietor Zhang came from afar, please hurry up to the house, wash the dust, prepare a thin wine at the house, please proprietor Zhang must appreciate the light." β
Zhang Yongan said casually: "I don't dare to ask for ears, of course I have to disturb." β
Everyone talked about going inside, this yard is a three-in-one set of three, although the grass and trees are planted outside, but it is still broad, but the inside is a unique cave, the mountains and rocks are lined up, and there is a spring lotus pond, and a small pavilion is built, Fan Yongdou can't help but say: "Lao Li, life is really not bad." β
Li Mingda laughed and said: "It's just a residence, don't hide it from the owner, I also dreamed that this house was mine, but after I woke up, I was even more sad." β
This courtyard is worth at least two thousand silver, Fan Yongdou listened to Li Mingda's words, and had the heart to give him a promise, but when he thought about it, it was a little worthless, and he smiled at the corner of his mouth at the moment, and said two words lightly, revealing this matter.
Li Mingda didn't care, and ordered the family to set up a banquet and put it in the small pavilion on the edge of the lotus pond.
When the wine and food came up, the aroma was tangy, Li Mingda raised his glass and said: "Proprietor, no matter what happens, drink this cup first." β
Fan Yongdou and Zhang Yongan both toasted together, the two touched a glass with Li Mingda, and the three of them drank together.
Li Mingda put down the wine glass and said, "The proprietor has something to say." β
Fan Yongdou somehow felt a little unhappy in his heart, and also put down the cup, and said: "Lao Li hasn't seen him for a long time, it's really different than before, straightforward, and very refreshing." β
Li Mingda said with a smile: "Recently, I have indeed been in a bit of a hurry to talk and do things, if the proprietor is not in a hurry, let's talk about it later." β
Fan Yongdou suddenly understood why he was uncomfortable!
is Li Mingda's attitude when he speaks, and the very confident aura makes him very uncomfortable, which is something that Li Mingda couldn't see in the past.
Fan Yongdou had some doubts in his heart, could it be that He Yusheng really trusted Li Mingda so much?
At this point, naturally there is something to say directly!
Fan Yongdou said: "Lao Li, we have several forces joining forces to fight with He Yusheng again, among them, you are a very important chess piece......
Li Mingda's face was serious when he heard this, and there happened to be a small servant who came up with a plate of dishes, and Li Mingda ordered: "You open the curtain, and then stand far away, without telling you not to come in, and don't leave." β
Fan Yongdou and Zhang Yongan glanced at each other, both of them were a little relieved in their hearts, Li Mingda was so cautious and careful, and there was no abnormal behavior, especially the isolation news made these two very satisfied.
The people brought by Zhang Yongan have actually been scattered around this pavilion, even if Li Mingda doesn't give orders, the people of the Li family don't want to go out.
When the curtain is opened, the surrounding scenery and characters are clearer, and they are not afraid of leaking news at all.
ββ¦β¦ That's it, as long as Lao Li and you also fight back, Zhang Han will undoubtedly fall. Fan Yongdou picked up the part he could say and said to Li Mingda, and finally said: "It is inevitable to get rid of his command post and raid his house, and Governor Zheng and Ma Zongbing and others will definitely lose their official positions, and Datong will go to the Xuanfu area, and Yusheng will all be closed." There are no eggs under the nest, Lao Li, you can be regarded as the first complaint, there must be nothing to do, and you may have to go to Jingshi for a trip, but you can rest assured, I will take care of your family, and after this matter subsides, you will still go to my Fan family as a shopkeeper to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing. β
After Li Mingda heard this, he suddenly burst out laughing.
Fan Yongdou felt wrong all of a sudden!
Zhang Yongan felt even more uneasy, he said: "What is Shopkeeper Li laughing at? β
Li Mingda ignored Zhang Yongan, stared at Fan Yongdou and said: "Fan Dongzhu means that I am a traitor and a traitor, and then I will be imprisoned in Beijing, and in the end, I will still be a shopkeeper under you?" β
Fan Yongdou was silent, and Li Mingda continued: "Then may I ask, what am I trying to do?" β
Zhang Yongan said: "Fan Dongzhu may not have made it clear just now, so naturally there will be a reward for Shopkeeper Li." β
"No need." Li Mingda said solemnly: "This mansion is in the early 2,000s, I have been working in Heyusheng for more than two years, because I have done a good job, I have made a lot of money for Zhang Dongzhu, and at the end of the year, it is a few hundred taels of bonus hair, otherwise I would have bought this house?" My two sons are working with Yusheng, and they are living a good life. Now Fan Dongzhu suddenly ran and said that he wanted me to cooperate in uprooting He Yusheng, excuse me, can I do this? β
Fan Yongdou sneered, looked at Li Mingda and said, "I see, I have changed my mind when I ask others to buy it." β
Li Mingda smiled indifferently and said, "Whatever Fan Dongzhu says." Why did I work hard in the Fan family for 20 years? It's nothing more than wanting my family to live a good life, but I have followed Fan Dongzhu for more than 20 years, but I have accumulated a net worth of thousands and lost all of a sudden. β
