Chapter 7 In the troubled times, how is the Fang family?

Fang Tianhao's eyes were stunned at this time, and his mouth was wide open. amazed

It took a while to come back to my senses.

"Mu'er, you want to rebel!!!

Fang Tianhao suppressed the fear in his heart and asked Fang Mu in a trembling voice.

Because, he couldn't imagine that his only son could have such great ambitions, if this ambition was known by someone with a heart, it would be enough to make the Fang family suffer a catastrophe!!

"Father, I'm not saying that we will openly rebel against the imperial court now, I mean, the times are about to change greatly, and our Fang family should be prepared in advance!! For his own plan, Fang Mu called Fang Tianhao's father for the first time!!!

Fang Tianhao was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke.

"Then what do you think the Fang family should prepare?"

"Internally, accumulate money and materials, and our Fang family should increase efforts to set up industries, such as steel mills and the like, it doesn't matter if you have a little money at the beginning, steel is very important for our Fang family to stabilize their future forces."

"The Fang family also has to cultivate their own armed forces, not to mention going to the battlefield to fight, at least they can use it against bandits."

"Externally, it is very important to establish a good relationship between the officials of Hele County and Sichuan Province, not to mention anything else, if our Fang family wants to cultivate its own armed forces now, it will take hundreds of robbers, and if there is no "gun license", the imperial court will exterminate us as a chaotic party!!!

"Therefore, the current governor of Sichuan Province, the governor, and the magistrate of Lexian County, our Fang family must now increase contact." This will ensure that our Fang family will be able to develop steadily in the next few years.

"And now what our Fang family needs most is guns and people."

Fang Tianhao took out a flue-cured cigarette and lit it by himself.

Fang Tianhao exhaled a puff of smoke, looked at his son in front of him, picked up a pack of cigarettes he put from the table without changing his face, took out a cigarette and lit it, and also learned from Fang Tianhao, and spit out a smoke ring.

"Don't you don't smoke, I used to smoke, and you still said it smelled bad."

Fang Tianhao asked.

Fang Mu smiled and didn't explain.

"Fang Mu's addiction to smoking in the 21st century is very great, because he is obsessed with the study of mechanical knowledge, and often stays up late, and a lonely person in the middle of the night only has cigarettes to relieve his boredom."

It's just that Fang Mu's cigarettes are not as good as Fang Tianhao's, and it is also because of his own economic reasons in his previous life.

"Father, have you thought about it, I want to go to the county to see our Fang family's factory, and I want to know about the other party's own situation."

Fang Mu asked.

"You go out first, I think about it, go ahead, you've grown up"! Fang Tianhao said with a sigh

After Fang Mu left the secret room, Fang Tianhao lit cigarettes one by one inside, his facial expressions were sometimes frowning, sometimes happy, sometimes worried, sometimes sighing, and for a while, the change was very fast.

When Fang Tianhao was young, he and his father went to Annan to fight the French, serving under the account of General Liu Yongfu, the first war of the year, the brothers around him did not survive, after the war, the court treated him so much, he never thought of rebelling against the court, of course, there must be grievances in his heart, but the education in his mind did not allow him to have a trace of rebellious thoughts.

This night, Fang Tianhao thought about it all night in the secret room

The next day, Fang Mu got up early in the morning, and Laifu was by his side.

Because Fang Mu heard Uncle Fu say that the Fang family had 800 people, and there was also a 200-person family protection armed force, Fang Mu became interested and wanted to take a look.

looked at the pocket watch that Fang Tianhao gave him.

Now, at five o'clock in the morning, the tenant farmers of the Fang family had already gone to work in the fields an hour earlier, and the maids and their servants had also gotten up to clean up.

"Young Master, our Fang family's courtyard guards are in the courtyard in front," Laifu said, pointing to a courtyard about a hundred meters away from Fang Mu. The courtyard is located on the west side of the courtyard of the Fang family, and there is only this courtyard around.

"Walking into the courtyard, there is a flat land, and there are three large rooms next to the flat land, which are for the rest of the 200 nursing homes of the Fang family. At this time, the house next to the flat ground was dark. Obviously, the Fang family's nursing staff were still resting, and the maids and ordinary family members all got up earlier than them!!!!

Laifu saw Fang Mu frowning, and hurriedly shouted at the dim courtyard

"Li Laotu, the young master is here, but he hasn't come out to greet him"

Suddenly, the room was in chaos.

"Captain Li, I heard the housekeeper Laifu say that the young master is here, is it true, isn't the young master usually not coming here, he should go to the restaurant. A brothel or something? ”

Inside, a skinny 17 or 8-year-old asks a middle-aged, bearded man.

"Whatever, I heard that the young master is very stubborn, and he fights with people at every turn, be smart later, don't make the young master angry, clean you up, and drive you out of the Fang family, I don't need to talk about the treatment of the Fang family, right? This is the best in ten miles and eight towns, which landlord can be so good as the old man, but I will give you a tael of silver a month, Huzi, you explain, let them be smarter, don't cause trouble for Lao Tzu."

The middle-aged man with a beard on his face said to the child named Huzi next to him.

You must know that Fang Tianhao recruited these caretakers, each of whom gave one or two pieces of silver per month, in this era, one or two pieces of silver is enough for ordinary people for a few months, which is like other landlords trying their best to squeeze

An hour later, Fang Mu stood in the open space of the courtyard, looking at these so-called armed nurses, who were really worthy of the name of the armed nurses, staggering in line, some with crooked hats, some barefoot, and some even wearing only a pair of underwear

Fang Mu even wondered in his heart whether his plan should be carried out, with just these two hundred family members, he was simply inferior to a bandit!!!

Laifu looked at Li Laotu, who was so faceless in front of the young master, and glared at him. Turning his head and saying to Fang Mu

"Young Master, this is the Fang family's courtyard armament, today the young master came a little suddenly, they are not well prepared, please don't be surprised.

Fang Mu coughed, stopped the disappointment in his heart about these family members who were not even as good as soldiers and bandits, and immediately asked Laifu, who are they in charge?

When Laifu heard this, he yelled at the middle-aged man with a beard on his face: "Li Laotu, come here." ”

"Here it is, Butler Rifle". Li Laotu responded and hurriedly ran to Fang Mu's side.

"Young Master, hello," Li Laotu greeted Fang Mu with a humble face.

"Hmm" Fang Mu responded, and then said, "Are all the people here?"

"There are still two left, they have gone home to visit relatives, they will come back the day after tomorrow, do you have anything to do, young master?" Seeing that Fang Mu was so polite today, Li Laotu said again: "Young master, now there are a total of 198 of us nursing home members, I am their captain, young master, if you have any orders, just say it."

Fang Mu was really in no mood to look at this Fang family's armed team anymore, he was afraid that the more he looked at it, the more disappointed he became.

"Take me to see your usual weapons?"

"Okay, young master". After speaking, Li Laotu took Fang Mu and Laifu to the place where the weapons were stored
