Chapter 465: The Hind and the Beginning
After returning to Tianfu, Liu Fan found Liu Bing'er and told her everything that happened in the painting boat in the afternoon. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Info finally said to her, "The establishment of books and periodicals is a very important thing for the development of our Broken Army, but now I myself can't spare too much time and energy to pay attention to it, so I want you to take over this matter, Bing'er, what do you mean?" ”
Liu Bing'er sighed faintly and said, "The meaning of the overseer is that the concubine understands it, and the concubine can agree to take over the affairs of the books and periodicals." But did the Overseers really have nothing else on their minds? If you have one, you should tell the concubine as soon as possible, maybe the concubine can help you trick them into your hands! ”
"Ahem!" Liu Fan coughed dryly twice, and said angrily, "Why don't you even believe in my character?" If I really had this mind, would I let you and Lu'er's little girl compete with me so lively? I didn't even take a bite of the fat on the lips of you two, how could I have the heart to think about other women? ”
Looking at the corners of the girl's slightly upturned mouth, Liu Fan said softly, "Bing'er, I once told you. Now that you're young, try not to come and tease me. If one day I can't control it, it will cause you a lot of physical and mental damage. This is also the reason why I haven't allowed Yao'er and Shuying to get pregnant in the past two years. Your body is not yet fully developed, what if you have a child born too early? If any of you forsake me because of this, how will I regret it for the rest of my life? ”
Liu Bing'er threw herself into Ailang's arms, her pretty face was close to Ailang's solid chest, and she murmured tenderly, "Don't say it Langjun, your mind and concubine body understand." But now the concubine can't wait for a moment, the concubine doesn't want to leave you, let the concubine follow you, okay? The concubine just wants to be by your side! ”
Caressing the tears on the girl's cheeks, Liu Fan sighed, "I don't want to be separated from you either!" But you should understand that there are not many people in this world that I can trust wholeheartedly. You, Shuying, Yao'er, you are the people I trust the most. The stakes are very high, and although I am very confident that Liu Ru and the others will not betray me easily, I can't afford to gamble. After all, Liu Ru and the others grew up in Jiangnan, so it was easy to be fooled by the words of those people in Donglin, and I was not worried about betrayal, but I was very worried about their tendencies. So there must be someone I can trust to help me watch all this, help me control the pass, and control the thoughts of Liu Rushi and others. Bing'er, you have been with me for a long time, from Hanzhong to Jiaozhou. You know the best about the Breakers, and you're the best fit for the job. ”
Liu Bing'er shook her head when she heard this, "But, this is not what I want..."
Liu Fan was silent for a moment and said, "Three years, no, a year and a half, you stay here for a while, and when everything here is on the right track, how about I send someone to take you back?" I promise you that I will marry you in a beautiful way when the time comes. We will never be separated again! ”
Liu Bing'er nodded weakly, "Okay, the concubine will promise you, but Lang Jun must be the talker!" Otherwise, when the time comes, the concubine will run back to Jiaozhou to find you! After that, he suddenly grabbed Liu Fan's arm and bit it down hard...
Liu Fan gasped, grinned and said, "If you promise, you can agree, why are you still biting me?" It hurts, okay! ”
Liu Bing'er stroked the two rows of neat tooth marks on Liu Fan's arm distressedly, and then said angrily, "The big liar will only deceive people with sweet words, and the concubine is too easy to believe you, so she will be deceived by you!" ”
Liu Fan grinned and didn't go to Liu Bing'er's little grievance, but said solemnly, "Bing'er, in the next few days, I will ask my father-in-law to 'buy' the house next door." When the time comes, you and I will move there to live. After I go south, you two will stay in Jiangnan first, okay? ”
Liu Bing'er was a little moved by Liu Fan's carefulness, and replied softly, "Well, the concubine is all at the mercy of Lang Jun's arrangement!" ”
After appeasing Liu Bing'er, in the next few days, Liu Fan first arranged for Liu Rushi and others to meet with Liu Bing'er, and then helped them build the framework of the bookstore and books. Then he left the matter to Liu Bing'er to deal with. It's not that Liu Fan doesn't want to worry about these things, but he has more important things to do. Because Fan Liang's fleet has arrived at the Nanjing dock!
This time, Liu Fan went south to Jiangnan and carried a total of 30,000 stone refined salt, although the amount was not too much, but it was also all the inventory of the five salt farms in Jiaozhou, including the Shihe salt farm, for a year. Liu Fan wants to use these refined salts to open the market in Jiangnan and add a powerful boost to the rapid development of the Broken Army. If it succeeds, it will usher in a period of rapid development, and if it fails, it will face the embarrassing situation of financial shortage, so Liu Fan doesn't want to fail.
The day after Fan Liang and the others arrived in Nanjing, Liu Fan and Xu Wenjue jointly sent an invitation to all the "allies" and agreed to discuss the details of cooperation with them in Xu's mansion three days later. After the invitation was issued, merchants of all sizes in Jiangnan and the Wuxun family rushed to Nanjing City, where the Xu family was located.
In mid-June, dozens of large and small forces gathered in the Xu family's living room, Liu Fan and Xu Wenjue looked down at the crowd and said, "Everyone can sit here today, which shows that we all have a common goal, that is, to defeat the two Huai salt merchants, so that all the people in Jiangnan can be exempted from the oppression and exploitation of the two Huai salt merchants." As we all know, since the beginning of Wanli, the two Huai salt merchants have completely monopolized all the salt markets in the south of the Yangtze River, and they rely on the monopoly advantage to squeeze the wealth of the people in the south of the Yangtze River with very poor quality coarse salt, and every year a large amount of gold and silver is included in their pockets by such despicable means. And from today onwards, this rule will be broken, as long as we work together to twist all the forces into a rope, then their seemingly powerful forces will collapse in an instant, and Jiangnan Salt Industry will no longer be their hall! ”
The warm applause of "Whoa" resounded in the crowd, although everyone knew that Liu Fan had defeated the people of Donglin, and they had also heard of his strong reputation. But at this moment, Liu Fan's words still aroused the resonance of everyone, and those who could sit here were either loyal supporters of the Xu family or small and medium-sized salt merchants who were dissatisfied with the two Huai salt merchants eating alone. They are eager for a force to break the backwater of the Jiangnan salt industry, and they are eager to get a piece of this huge wealth, and Liu Fan is now the best opportunity in front of them. It's not that the raptor is not the river, the stronger and more powerful Liu Fan's dragon is that crosses the river, the more powerful and powerful it is, the higher everyone's confidence will be.
