Chapter 355: The Beginning of the Show (I)
After a full meal, everyone discussed the details of the plan again, and then everyone took their leave. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn the blink of an eye, there were only two people left in the wing, Patriarch Zhao and the head of the Xu family. Glancing at the head of the Xu family who was a little restless, he looked for the patriarch and said angrily, "Why Yingyuan, you also want to follow them?" ”
Xu Yingyuan hurriedly smiled and said, "Uncle Zhao said that he was joking, Yingyuan was just a little worried about our safety." You see it's so late, I can't keep those mud legs out of what moths, in case they organize people to assassinate at night, I'm afraid those clansmen won't be able to stop it! ”
Patriarch Zhao was furious and said, "Xu Yingyuan, quietly, you have a little bit of breath!" If it weren't for your father's face, the old man would have kicked you out a long time ago. This is Laizhou City, do those Diao people dare to make trouble here? Do you think Liu Fan will be as stupid as you? Idiot! ”
Xu Yingyuan nodded and defended in a low voice, "Uncle, don't be angry, little nephew, this is also for the safety of your old man!" ”
Patriarch Zhao snorted angrily and said, "Forget it, I can't understand it with you, the elm head, and I don't know how you became the patriarch of the Xu family!" Hum! ”
"Uncle, you drink tea! Let's put out the fire first! Ying Yuan also knows that his mind is not as good as yours, so he has always been looking forward to you! Uncle, what you say, Ying Yuan will do anything, there is no difference between the sword mountain and the sea of fire! Xu Yingyuan hurriedly brought a cup of tea to Patriarch Zhao and said with a smile
Seeing Xu Yingyuan's cautious appearance, Patriarch Zhao sighed and said, "Yingyuan, your Xu family and our Zhao family have been friends for generations, and there are some things that we can only discuss behind closed doors." This time, don't look at the fancy that the old man said, in fact, it's all false. Liu Fan has never played cards according to common sense, and he himself is a very advocating force, and he is an out-and-out martial artist style. There is a way to show only when you meet soldiers, and it is unreasonable. Now the handle of the knife is in someone's hand, and it may fall at any point. So we have to guard against it! After you go back, you must gather your clansmen and transfer those properties that can be transferred to other places as soon as possible, whether it is the capital or Jiangnan, you can't stay in SD anyway. Do you understand? ”
Xu Yingyuan was shocked when he heard this, "Uncle, is the matter so serious?" ”
Patriarch Zhao nodded with a heavy expression and said, "That's true!" SD Governor Zhu Dadian is also an old friend of the old man, and he still knows Zhu Dadian very well about the old man. Even the unruly Guan Ning Army, which was difficult to train, was obedient and did not dare to make a mistake when it came to Zhu Dadian's hands. But this time, the old man came to the door to ask for help, and Zhu Dadian actually excused himself. Even the SD governor didn't dare to meddle in the affairs of Laizhou at will, do you say it's serious? ”
Xu Yingyuan suddenly couldn't sit still when he heard this, and said in panic, "Then what should I do?" Are we going to run away like Fan? ”
Patriarch Zhao sighed helplessly and said, "Let's take one step at a time, it's better to make some preparations in advance than to deal with it in a hurry when the matter comes." If it really doesn't work, then we can only move out of Laizhou! ”
Xu Yingyuan also sighed, "Okay, Ying Yuan will go back and discuss with the clan elders first, uncle, Ying Yuan will retire first!" ”
Patriarch Zhao nodded and said, "Hmm! Be careful on the road, it's best not to go out of the city for the next two days, and when the old man finishes dealing with the matter at hand, let's go together! ”
With so many gentry and landlords gathered together in Laizhou, how could the people of the Military Intelligence Department be indifferent to such a big matter. After the party in Yuxianglou ended, Zhao Bo got the exact news. After receiving the news, Zhao Bo didn't dare to make the decision alone, and immediately set off to return to Jiaozhou to explain everything to Liu Fan.
Before Liu Fan could make a move, he didn't expect an unexpected person to come to Jiaozhou. In the Jiaozhou General Military Mansion, Liu Fan personally met with this secret visitor. Quietly looking at the cramped and restless guest in front of him, Liu Fan felt a lot of inexplicable feelings in his heart, and even a little incredible. After a long time, Liu Fan suddenly smiled and said, "Mr. Fan, right!" Thank you for the news this time, otherwise the official will be kept in the dark by these people! ”
The head of the Fan family said in a panic, "The chief soldier is serious, the villain is also under the order of the prefect, if you say thank you, it will be too embarrassing for the villain!" ”
Liu Fan waved his hand and said, "One yard is one yard, you can come in person, it means that you have your own thoughts in your heart." It also shows that you don't want others to oppose us like others, and this official recognizes it. I heard that you have recently sold your land and shop and are preparing to move out of Laizhou, is that the case? ”
Fan Fenghan leaned on the chair with half of his body and replied cautiously, "Back to Lord Zongbing, the villain has indeed encountered some problems in business recently, so he is thinking about transferring some sluggish industries to other places." ”
Liu Fan smiled and said, "Mr. Fan, don't worry, this official doesn't want to ask you, he just wants to tell you something, in fact, this official is not as impersonal as you think." We are still very generous to those businessmen and landlords who are willing to cooperate with us. You must also know the situation of the Li family in Jiaozhou City, did I, Liu Fan, treat them badly? Those overseas Franc machine officials can still treat them well, can't we SD local merchant officials still tolerate them? ”
Fan Fenghan was a little touched in his heart when he heard this, and arched his hand to compliment Liu Fan, "The chief soldier is magnanimous, and the villain admires him very much. The chief soldier really doesn't hide it, and the villain actually has some industries in Qingdao Port. Thanks to the blessing of adults, business has been booming recently. Therefore, the villain also has some understanding of the city division set up by the chief soldier, and I have to say that the chief soldier is really far-sighted! ”
Liu Fan laughed and said, "Since Mr. Fan has some understanding of our Broken Army, then we have the basis for cooperation. The official simply said bluntly, is there still a large number of fields in Mr. Fan's hands? ”
Fan Fenghan was suddenly startled, and just wanted to deny it, but when he looked up and saw Liu Fan's expression that seemed to be smiling, a chill inexplicably appeared in his heart. After hesitating for a while, Fan Fenghan still replied honestly, "Lord General Soldier, Fan and the head of the Li family have indeed been selling their land recently, but now the situation in Laizhou is chaotic, and the price of fertile land has been falling all the way, and now almost no one cares about it." The villain has been worried about this, I don't know why the chief soldier asked this? ”
Liu Fan suddenly restrained his smile and said solemnly, "That's good!" Go back and tell the Li family, your land, I Liu Fan wanted! ”
"Huh!?" Fan Fenghan exclaimed, and said in disbelief, "Lord Commander, you..." )
