The big fish was hooked, Liu Fan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Since the little grandfather is interested, then Liu Fan will tell you that this time I will carry a large amount of refined salt produced in Jiaozhou and want to sell it in Jiangnan." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoI want to invite the Xu family to participate in a share, can the little grandfather be interested? ”

"Is Jiaozhou's refined salt?" Xu Wenjue nodded with understanding, and immediately said, "Jiangnan has always been the territory of the two Huai salt merchants, and although the refined salt produced in Jiaozhou is of good quality, it may not be difficult to sell it in Jiangnan!" ”

"Little grandfather is wise!" Liu Fan smiled and said, "It is precisely because of this that I came to the Xu Mansion to ask for help, I want to invite the Xu family to fight against the two Huai salt merchants, I don't know what the little grandfather thinks?" ”

Although Xu Wenjue already had some premonitions in his heart, when Liu Fan really said it, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Brother Liu, don't mess around!" The two Huai salt merchants have a huge power, and there are many Jiangnan gentry to show their eyes, and it is not so simple to confront them! Our Xu family doesn't want to participate in it for the time being, so Brother Liu should find another job! ”

Although the Xu family is the most prominent family in Nanjing, there is no need for them to be against the powerful salt merchant group, although they are located in the south of the Yangtze River, but the Xu family and these salt merchant forces rarely intersect, and it has always been well water and river water. For the sake of a little money, he has to fight with such a force, and Xu Wenjue will never agree.

Hearing Xu Wenjue's rejection, Liu Fan did not panic, but shook his head with a smile and said, "Little master, don't be busy refusing first, let it be not too late to make a decision after the next general has finished speaking." I don't want the Xu family to fight with the two Huai salt merchants face to face, but I just want to ask the Xu family to help, and the main force is still ourselves. I just want to use the Xu family's channels to sell goods, and what the Xu family has to do is just put the goods from Jiaozhou in your shops, which shouldn't be difficult for you! ”

Xu Wenjue was a little moved in his heart, but he was still silent and did not agree. Seeing this, Liu Fan had to continue to increase the weight: "As long as the Xu family is willing to help one or two, how about taking out 20% of the profits from refined salt and handing it over to the Xu family for free?" Don't underestimate these two percent, according to the preliminary estimates below, once the market in Jiangnan is opened, the annual profit of refined salt will not be less than five million taels. ”

Isn't it a million taels if it's 20 percent? Xu Wenjue felt that his heart was pounding very strongly, and it took him a long time before he lowered the temptation with great perseverance, and said with difficulty: "Brother Liu, hasn't he already handed over the "agency" to the Qian family in the capital? Wouldn't it be a break in your word to get fat when you run out to make the wind and rain now? ”

Liu Fan said disdainfully when he heard this: "Let's not talk about my grievances with the Donglin Party, just with his Qian family's total of 200,000 taels, he also wants to monopolize the big deal of nearly 5 million taels a year?" I'm not afraid to kill him! However, I, Liu Fan, have always been good at what I say, and I promised them that they would not sell refined salt to others again, so I would not be untrustworthy. It's always okay for me to sell it myself, right? After a while, I will set up a terminal near the Nanjing wharf, and all the traders who are interested in buying Jiaozhou refined salt can go directly to the wharf to pick up the goods, and we can also deliver the more you buy! Haha..."

"Uh" Xu Wenjue was a little dumbfounded when he heard this, they thought that Liu Fan would actually play like this, and they couldn't help but mourn a few times for the Qian family. Then he said with excitement on his face: "Brother Jimin is really extraordinary, Xu is really willing to bow down!" Awesome! ”

"Where, where! It's just a small word game, it's that the Qian family himself is too greedy to see the doorway. Besides, they have made a lot of money in the past two years. No matter how you count it, I don't owe them anything! ”

After whitewashing himself first, Liu Fan continued to tempt, "Actually, your Xu family can also pick up the goods directly from the dock, so that you can earn a part of the profits from sales." The superposition of two phases is not as simple as a million taels! In terms of the Xu family's heritage, there are still 1.5 million taels per year! ”

One and a half million taels! Or every year, wouldn't it be more than ten years to say that the Xu family can also be rich and rival the country? With such a huge wealth, let alone dealing with a small Lianghuai salt merchant, even if it is the enemy of the entire Jiangnan Shilin, the Xu family will not hesitate! However, Xu Wenjue still did not agree immediately, but pretended to be distressed, and hesitated for a while before saying to Liu Fan: "Brother Jimin, this matter is very serious, can I consider it for a few days?" Brother Jimin, rest assured, I will give you a satisfactory answer within three days! ”

"Alright then!" Liu Fan sighed, a little disappointed, "Then I'll wait for the good news of the little grandfather!" There are still some things in the next house, so it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, so I will visit again another day! Bothered! ”

Liu Fan got up to say goodbye, and Xu Wenjue hurriedly got up and said, "I'll send Brother Jimin!" Please! ”

Personally sent Liu Fan out of the house, Xu Wenjue turned around and returned to the lobby, walked quickly to a bookshelf, Xu Wenjue turned the pen holder to open the dark room, and respectfully bowed his head and said, "Father, then Liu Fan has been sent away!" ”

"Hmm," an old man strode out of the dark room, patted Xu Wenjue's shoulder, and said, "Wen'er did a good job, not arrogant, not arrogant, not humble, not embarrassed my Xu family, worthy of praise!" ”

"Father is overrated!" Xu Wenjue replied humbly, stepped forward to support the old man and asked, "Liu Fan's words just now, my father also heard it, do you think we should agree to his request?" ”

Xu Hongji, the old Duke of Wei, groaned: "This Liu Fan is not simple! Although he is young, he is very ambitious, and more importantly, he has the means and strength to match his ambition. In the eventful autumn of Daming, there is such a heroic figure, and I don't know if it is a blessing or a curse for my Daming! ”

Xu Wenjue secretly rolled his eyes, and said helplessly, "Liu Fan is Your Majesty's confidant, and everything must be controlled by Your Majesty, where is our turn to worry about the Xu family!" Father, you're so worried! ”

Xu Hongji smiled dumbly and said, "Also, I'm old, half of my body is buried in the soil, what do I do with these things!" After laughing at himself for a few words, Xu Hongji turned his head with a serious face and said, "Wen'er, you must remember that you are so handsome, you can only make friends, not evil." Since people have come to the door, they have given us such a big benefit. If that's the case, then Liu Fan's conditions will be agreed. ”

Xu Wenjue was still a little worried, and said, "But Liu Fan has to deal with the two Huai salt merchants!" Shall we get involved..."

"It's okay!" Xu Hongji shook his head and said, "The two Huai salt merchants and the Jiangnan gentry are one, and our Xu family has been the most martial artist in the world since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Since Liu Fan is going to deal with those literati and gentry, why should we help him? ”

"Yes, the boy knows what to do!" Xu Wenjue's face was full of excitement and said, "I will send someone to invite Liu Fan early tomorrow morning!" ”
