"Virtuous nephew, your father is a bold and righteous man, and there are a lot of old friends in Dengzhou, you remember, you must not borrow from them in order to raise capital! Remember! Remember! ”

The words that Chen Shangren threw down when he was about to leave made Chu Fan fall into the clouds.

What does this mean?

After thinking hard for a long time, stringing together Chen Shangren's words before and after, Chu Fan finally understood Chen Shangren's good intentions.

It seems that Wang Tingqian is not ready to give enough capital for himself, in this case, if he wants to earn enough 30,000 taels of silver in a year, the only way is to raise capital through Chu An's friends; And Wang Tingqian is only afraid that he can't wait to raise it himself, the more he raises, the better, and when he borrows enough money, and even the raw silk is finished, then he will find a reason to throw himself into prison, so that the prefect will not have another income? As for who will run the sea trade of the Japanese Kingdom for him, the dignified prefect is still afraid that he will not find anyone? If it really doesn't work, it's okay to use Chen Shangren.

Black! It's fucking black!

Chu Fan stayed in the house all day and scolded the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of the Wang family.

Of course, he also made up his mind to deal with it, just waiting for the results of Chen Shangren's negotiation with Wang Tingtry, this house Wang Tingtry can't not give himself a big son, right? Anyway, how much money does he give, how much money do we do, and want to ask ourselves to borrow money? No way!

Early the next morning, Chu Fan went out after washing, rode a mule and went straight to the south gate - the matter has passed, and Liu Zhiyang has to come to the door to thank him.

When he arrived at Liu's mansion, Chu Fan solemnly thanked his father, but he made the other party angry, in Liu Zhiyang's opinion, he failed to protect the Chu family's house, and he panicked with shame, where could he still stop Chu Fan from thanking him.

Speaking of how to plan in the future, Liu Zhiyang bluntly said that he wanted to lend some capital to Chu Fan, but Chu Fan resolutely refused - Liu Zhiyang also lost nearly 10,000 taels of silver this time, Chu Fan is still thinking about how to make up for it, where can he ask for his funding? What's more, Chen Shangren has already revealed Wang Ting's conspiracy, and Chu Fan can't harm Liu Zhiyang.

After saying goodbye, he refused Liu Zhiyang's kindness, and Chu Fan said goodbye and went home.

On the day when he made an appointment to meet Chen Shangren, Chu Fan rode a mule into the south gate of Dengzhou, and walked slowly along the street towards the mansion, and when he passed the square in front of the mansion gate, he inadvertently saw a strange building in the corner.

The building has three winged houses, white walls and blue tiles, like a small temple. On the door of the main hall hangs a plaque with a royal blue background, on which there are four gilded characters: "Meritorious merits"; Three zhang open in front of the main hall door, there is a stone tablet of white marble, and the book is "flowing through the ages".

Chu Fan was very surprised in his heart, flipped through his memory, and suddenly realized that this was the ancestral hall of the famous "nine thousand years old" Wei Zhongxian.

Chu Fan remembered that Chongzhen ascended to the pole, and the first thing he did was to take down the dead eunuch, why did the apocalypse hang up for a month, and this ancestral hall was still here?

With the fall of Wei Zhongxian, the "eunuch party" was uprooted and liquidated in just a few years - this Wang court tried to repair Wei Zhongxian's ancestral hall and the emperor at the gate of the palace, should he also be a "eunuch party"?

Chu Fan's heart suddenly became lively, maybe in less than a year, this royal court test will be cleaned up by the imperial court, wouldn't he have to worry about his exploitation anymore?

Thinking about it again, Chu Fan wilted again, he didn't remember when the eunuchs fell, in case the royal court didn't fall a year later, his whole family would not be rubbed to death by him?

Thinking about it, Chu Fan had already come to the side door of the mansion, and after giving Menzi two coins of silver, Menzi quickly helped him invite Chen Shangren out.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then found a small wine shop near the mansion, entered the only private seat, and after sitting down, Xiao Erzhang served four dishes and scalded a pot of wine.

As soon as Xiao Er went out, Chen Shangren got up and closed the door, and then took out a contract and said to Chu Fan, "Virtuous nephew, the old man has tried his best to persuade Lord Fuzun this time...... Your house was pledged to the mansion for 5,000 taels of silver, and your case was closed...... If you can earn back 30,000 taels of silver next year, the house will be returned to you...... What do you think? ”

After Chu Fan picked up the contract and read it carefully, he wanted to scold his mother - this Wang Ting's test is also a good calculation, if he can't earn 30,000 silver next year, first of all, this house will be surnamed Wang; Secondly, no matter how much you earn by then, you have to compensate Chen Shangren. In other words, his own house was tried by the royal court, and he had to help this old dog run to the country for nothing!

"Virtuous nephew, I thought that with the old man's face, how could he fight for ten thousand taels of silver from the mansion, but it was really bad luck, and the account in this mansion was ...... Alas! Don't mention it. The more Chen Shangren spoke, the more bitter he became, so he poured himself a glass of wine and drank it all.

Chu Fan had to smile bitterly, he knew that the old man had done his best, and it was really not easy for Wang Ting to try to change the idea of realizing his own house, so he stood up and said to Chen Shangren, "Shibo has worked hard for my Chu family, and I don't know how much I have been wronged. ”

Chen Shangren saw him so polite, and he was also inexplicably emotional, stretched out his hand to help him sit down, and shook his head with a wry smile.

Chu Fan shouted to the guy at the wine shop to bring pen and ink cinnabar, signed the contract and drew a pledge, Chen Shangren put away the contract, took out a large ticket of five thousand taels from his arms and handed it to Chu Fandao, "Collect it first, and then we will slowly figure out how to do the rest...... Again, don't go around borrowing! ”

Chu Fan looked at his eyes, and his heart was cold, and he knew that until today, Wang Ting's old dog had not died and had the heart to knock on the marrow.

Thinking of the ancestral hall in front of the yamen, Chu Fan asked about the background of Wang Ting's test while giving Chen Shangren vegetables.

Chen Shangren didn't understand his thoughts, and looked at him deeply and said, "It's okay to listen to it...... The old man has always been close to Wei Ge Lao, and Wei Ge Lao is highly valued by the nine thousand years old...... Nine thousand years old is monstrous, and the figures in the court, Tai is half out of his door, and he is now the new emperor, but I am afraid that he has to act according to the eyes of nine thousand years old. ”

Of course, Chu Fan didn't know that this old Wei Ge was named Wei Guangwei, but he understood that this Wei Ge old iron must be the backbone of the eunuch party, so no matter what Wang Tingtry said, he couldn't get rid of the suspicion of the eunuch party. According to his memory, after Chongzhen came to power, the first thing he did was to take Wei Zhongxian, and then the Donglin Party gained power and wantonly liquidated the eunuch party.

Thinking that Wang Tingqian, who had driven himself to the end of the mountain, was about to step down like a lost dog, and that he would have a way to clean him up when the time came, Chu Fan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and poured a full glass of wine and drank it all.

Seeing his happy face, Chen Shangren asked rather strangely, "Why is the virtuous nephew so happy?" ”

Chu Fan took a tofu box and chewed it slowly, pretending to say mysteriously to Chen Shangren, "Don't say it, don't say it...... Shibo, you just have to watch, Wei Zhongxian can't be around for a few days, the new emperor will not be merciful, the greater the power, the faster he will die! ”

His words made Chen Shangren's face pale, and he looked around anxiously at the non-existent Dongchang Fanzi, and complained in a low voice, "You are dead!" Dare to speak disrespectfully to the nine thousand years old...... If others listen to you, do you and I still have a life? ”

After speaking, he saw that there was no movement around, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You are a little student, how do you know the mystery of the temple...... With the power of 9,000 years old, it is not yet known who will kill the deer. ”

Chu Fan couldn't answer, he couldn't say that he knew all about these major events at the end of the Ming Dynasty, so he had to pick up his wine glass and touch the old man, "Shibo, one day you will find that today's words are not nonsense!" ”

After speaking, he drank it all in the old man's surprised gaze.

After a full meal, Chu Fan knew the money and saw Chen Shangren go back to the mansion, then Shi Shiran took the reins from the hands of the guys in the wine shop, turned over the mule, and went straight to the south gate.

Chu Fan didn't notice that by the door of the wine shop, a man dressed as a porter was squatting there, and a pair of shining eyes under the big hat were firmly nailed to his back!
