Chapter 261: Elbows Turned Out

After Fu Yuan finished speaking, his eyes stared at Li Feibai! thought to himself, the conditions for his opening were not low, almost implicitly, as long as Li Feibai borrowed his money to use it, he would be Li Feibai's backer from now on, so that Li Feibai would make a lot of money in Henan.

What's more, he borrowed money not for his own use, but for the construction of water conservancy and the use of rebellion, such a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, no one who is a little sensible will refuse. Li Feibai is a smart person, and he will not refuse if he wants to.

Li Feibai smiled: "I don't know how much silver Uncle Fu needs!" ”

Fu Yuan seems to be light on the surface, but he is actually holding a lot of strength in his heart. After all, whether or not you can borrow money from Li Feibai is related to whether you can succeed in seizing power! Seeing that Li Feibai asked how much silver he needed, which meant that Li Feibai was willing to borrow silver, he breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out three fingers and said, "Only three million taels of silver!" ”

Li Feibai hesitated for a moment and said, "Three million taels? Three million taels of little nephews really can't be taken out, if only 300,000 taels are good! ”

What can 300,000 taels do? Is it enough to build a small canal or enough to fight the White Lotus Sect?

Fu Yuan was a little anxious, and said, "Didn't you just auction more than two million taels of three things?" Coupled with the coal fire sold, as well as cigars, Taibai wine, and the newly built Tianxiang Building, it is enough for three million taels together! ”

Li Feibai said: "It's true that the three things are more than 2 million taels, but more than half of them are Cui Wenxiu's own industry to fill the number, and the real silver is only about one million taels." Coal fire has indeed made a small profit, cigars and Taibai wine have just started, and they have not seen a penny of money back yet. As for the proceeds from the auction of the three things, as well as the money earned from selling coal fires, most of them were invested in Taibai Distillery and Tianxianglou, and there was really not much money left! ”

Fu Yuan saw that Li Feibai didn't look like he was lying, so he stopped talking. He had just lost his temper, like a governor should be. But what now, since he can't borrow money from Li Feibai, what should his follow-up plan be? Could it be that he didn't have that dream? No wonder the old people say that dreams have to be interpreted in reverse.

Li Feibai then said: "Uncle Fu, forgive the little nephew for daring to say something that shouldn't be said, you want to borrow three million taels of silver, in addition to building water conservancy to eradicate chaos and benefit the people, do you still want to take this opportunity to gain a firm foothold in Henan!" ”

Fu Yuan wanted to seize the power of Qian Mutong, and everyone in Henan knew about it, so he didn't hide it, and nodded slightly.

Li Feibai said: "If you just exterminate the White Lotus Sect to benefit the people, and let Uncle Fu gain a firm foothold in Henan, the little nephew has a way!" ”

Fu Yuan was stunned, and he really couldn't figure out what else to do besides using money to open the way. Seeing that Li Feibai didn't seem to be joking, he smiled and said, "What can you do?" Even if there is a way, are you really willing to help me deal with Lord Qian? As far as I know, you have an extraordinary relationship with Qian Zijun, and you will do something about turning your elbow outward? ”

Li Feibai said: "Uncle Fu asked me to borrow three million taels of silver, fortunately I don't have so much silver, if I really have, wouldn't it force me to do the elbow turning out?" ”

Fu Yuan said: "You didn't want to do the thing of turning your elbow outward, so you didn't have so much silver!" ”

Li Feibai said: "If I really have so much silver, I would have lent it to Uncle Fu a long time ago, why bother saying something that will help you gain a firm foothold in Henan?" ”

Fu Yuan thought about it. Anyway, it was all elbows turned outward, and Li Feibai could still excuse himself by borrowing money, and he would not completely tear his face with Qian Mutong. came up with an idea, but Li Feibai took the initiative to propose, although he didn't spend a penny, if Qian Mutong knew about it, his face would definitely be torn thoroughly!

He smiled and said, "Why are you helping me?" ”

Li Feibai said: "Whoever made you my uncle, I won't help you help anyone!" ”

Fu Yuan's eyes are not blind, although Li Feibai did not say what he has to do with Qian Zijun, but he can see that the two of them can wear the same pants, maybe they are already brothers. In terms of this relationship, Li Feibai's relationship with Qian Mutong is a hundred times stronger than that with him. He deliberately straightened his face and said, "Don't say these nice words, tell the truth!" ”

Li Feibai said: "Don't hide it from Uncle Fu, although I have a good relationship with Qian Zijun, today is the first time I have seen Lord Qian, and I haven't even said a word until now, how good can the relationship be." Moreover, you should also know that the relationship between Qian Zijun and Master Qian is very troublesome, and Lord Qian looks at me as a passerby, how can I have a good relationship with Uncle Fu. If I don't help Uncle Fu, who will I help? ”

Fu Yuan relieved the mustard in his heart. Li Feibai is telling the truth, and it is reasonable not to help Qian Mutong and help him.

Li Feibai continued: "Actually, when I help Uncle Fu, I am helping Master Qian, and I am also helping Qian Zijun!" ”

Fu Yuan let out an "oh", couldn't turn around for a while, and asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Li Feibai said: "Uncle Fu was sent by the court, in charge of the government and military affairs of a province, Lord Qian doesn't say that he will cooperate with him, but he has to make things difficult for you everywhere!" It's Uncle Fu who has a good temper and doesn't have the same knowledge as Lord Qian, otherwise he will be frightened, let alone Lord Qian, he wants to be the governor, but I'm afraid that the position of the political envoy will not be guaranteed! ”

Although things are not exactly like this, and it is not as simple as Li Feibai said, Fu Yuan was really comfortable listening to it, as if he had drunk a glass of ice water in June, nodded and smiled: "You kid still has some knowledge!" ”

Li Feibai continued: "Therefore, I helped Uncle Fu to seize the power of Lord Zhao, and I also stopped Lord Zhao's desire to fight for power. Since then, Lord Zhao has tried his best to assist Uncle Fu in governing Henan, and Uncle Fu's term of office as governor has expired. ”

Fu Yuan patted the wine table and praised it: "Well said, well said!" Here, you and my uncle and nephew have another drink! After raising a glass and drinking, he said again, "Why are you helping me and Qian Zijun again?" ”

Li Feibai said: "What is the relationship between Lord Qian and Qian Zijun?" Father-son relationship! Although the two are a little contradictory now, there is no overnight feud between husband and wife, let alone father and son? Lord Qian is good, Qian Zijun is naturally good! Of course, I want to help Uncle Fu, in fact, it is also what Qian Zijun meant. ”

Fu Yuan let out an "oh" and said, "Why?" ”

Li Feibai said: "Qian Zijun can also see that it is very dangerous for his father to do this against you. For the sake of his father's greed for power and causing trouble, that's why he wants to help you. But more importantly, he has something to ask you for! ”

In officialdom, most of the time it is the officials who crush people to death, but there are exceptions. For example, a new governor and a political envoy who has been operating in the local area for many years. It stands to reason that the governor is the second grade, and the political envoy is the second grade, and the governor should be able to crush the political envoy. But the governor has just arrived, and the political envoy is deeply rooted. If the governor encounters a weak political envoy, it is good to say, if he encounters a strong political envoy who has to work against you, then he is in a hurry and there is no way, unless you can calm down and slowly cultivate your own power.

As for what is written for impeachment, it is complete nonsense. If the official achieves this level, who has no relationship in the capital, who can tell the truth of the public and the mother-in-law who can tell right from wrong? Unless the governor or the political envoy has a major handle in the hands of the other party, it is all meaningless quarrelling.

The most important thing is that the court, or the emperor, is very happy to see the fight below. The chief officials and auxiliary officials in a province are a good iron plate, and the water can't be splashed and the needle can't be inserted, and the emperor is not at ease!

Therefore, Fu Yuan listened to the beautiful words that Li Feibai said before, and only paid attention to Li Feibai's last sentence, maybe this is the reason why Li Feibai wants to help him. He asked, "What does he ask of me?" ”

Li Feibai said: "This is not in a hurry, let the little nephew speak slowly in a while." Does Uncle Fu want to listen to his little nephew first, how to solve the drought without spending money? ”
