Chapter 379: Blood
When the Imperial Palace and the Taifu Mansion were in chaos, the Ximen Firm was much calmer, and it could even be said that it was safe and secure. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info This is thanks to Simon Liu's foresight.
After Bi Fuan successfully got Kim Jong-lei to accept Ximen Liu's donation of silver, he returned to Ximen Firm, and told Ximen Liu how he passed through the forest of swords and guns and how he was not afraid of danger. When Ximen Liu heard this, he was very satisfied, and immediately rewarded Bi Fuan with 10,000 taels of silver.
After that, the Chen army successively broke through the three counties and twelve passes, (ten of which were captured by Song Qi before they donated silver, and Ximen Liu was still counted in the name of Jin Zhenglei), and Ximen Liu sent Bi Fuan to send 15 million taels of silver to Jin Zhenglei in batches.
Bi Fuan has been in and out of Kim Jonglei's big tent and the general's mansion many times, and naturally became Kim Jonglei's guest. Every time Bi Fuan sent silver, Jin Zhenglei must set up a feast to entertain, once at the banquet, Jin Zhenglei smiled and praised Bi Fuan: "Bi shopkeeper, your owner Ximen Gong generously helped the army, it is really a generation of righteous businessmen!" ā
Bi Fuan listened to it, and said with a smile on his face: "Thank you Marshal Jin for your compliment, I will definitely tell the owner that he must be very happy to hear Marshal Jin praise him so much!" If the marshal can give him a calligraphy, our proprietor will be even more grateful! ā
Jin Zhenglei readily agreed, and immediately ordered his soldiers to grind and lay paper, he held a wolf hair, and the dragon flew and the phoenix danced in his hand: "A generation of righteous businessmen!" A line of small print and Kim Jong-lei's signature was added to the back.
Bi Fu'an is grateful if he has received a treasure.
When Bi Fu'an returned to Ximen Firm with this ink treasure in his hand, Ximen Liu was also infected by it and asked with a smile: "It seems that this trip is quite smooth?" Bi Fuan smiled and nodded, then slowly unfolded the handwriting of Kim Zhenglei, then took two steps back, and looked down side by side with Ximen Liu.
Ximen Liu saw that the "generation of righteous businessmen" was happier than drinking honey, and then saw the small words and the payment under the words, he jumped up with joy, looked up to the sky and laughed: "With this word, my Ximen Liu is worry-free, let your city break and the country will be destroyed, and my Ximen business will be as solid as a rock!" "After laughing, Lianzan Bi Fu'an will do things.
Bi Fuan laughed and said humbly: "Let the spring breeze and harvest the summer rain, this is all the credit of silver!" Then he said with a fluttering brow how he saw the opportunity and how much wine he drank before begging Marshal Jin to give him this talisman. Ximen Liu laughed and rewarded him with another 20,000 taels of silver.

With a few subordinates and hundreds of forbidden soldiers, Youan went straight to the Ximen Firm.
You An leaned back in the sedan chair that swayed forward, with a sinister smile on his face, and secretly scolded: "Ximen Liu, Ximen Liu, don't blame You for being ruthless. Who told you to usually only have Fei Chong in your eyes, without me You'an! Although you have also sent me a lot of silver, it is really a world of difference compared to the one you gave to Fei Chong! There's no way, I can only let you bleed a little today. ā
After a while, the sedan chair arrived at the door of the business, Ximen Liu heard the report of the family in the courtyard, and had already opened the middle door to welcome him, and saluted from a distance at the door: "You Xiangguo is coming to the cold house, and the grass people are fortunate to have three lives!" ā
You An slowly got off the sedan chair, took two steps forward, cordially took Ximen Liu's hand, and said with a smile: "Ximen Gong, it's easy to say!" ā
"You Xiangguo, please!" Simon Liu bowed and asked.
"Ximen Gong first, please!" You'an said this in his mouth, but he didn't give in at all under his feet, and as soon as he raised his legs, he stepped into the courtyard first.
Ximen Liu bent down behind and followed, but when he reached the fork in the road, he prompted: "You Xiangguo, go to the right." ā
Euan looked up as he walked. The courtyard is full of towering buildings and trees, which is very magnificent and luxurious.
You An was very unhappy in his heart, and secretly thought: "This Ximen Liu doesn't know how much property he stole from Ming Zhugong, he is a small businessman, and his yard is much more magnificent than my mansion!" ā
After a while, I arrived at the central hall, and the coffee table inside was already covered with various refreshments.
Ximen Liu stretched out his hand and pointed to the upper seat in the middle, and said respectfully: "You Xiangguo, please use tea." ā
Youan waved his hand and said, "I'm not busy, I'd better open the holy decree first and then use tea." ā
Ximen Liu couldn't believe his ears, and looked at You'an with a puzzled look, "Holy decree? ā
You An nodded, stood in the north and south of the back of the middle hall, slowly unfolded the holy decree in his hand, and said in a long voice: "Ximen Liu listens to the decree!" ā
Only then did Ximen Liu find that You'an had been respectfully holding a scroll in his hand, and it turned out that this scroll was the Holy Decree. He was overjoyed, and hurriedly crawled down to the dust, knelt down to listen to the decree, and thought with joy, what a great honor it is that the decree has come to my house!
I only heard You An's long voice, and read according to the holy decree: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: Chen Guo's selfless heart will not die, and now the army is coming to the city, and the city is about to be destroyed." The country is the country of all, not the country of one person, so the rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband. Under the nest, Ann has finished eggs? Erximen firm's wealth is hundreds of millions, all of which come from the Mingzhu firm, and if the Mingzhu firm did not have the stability of defending the country for more than 30 years, how could it be rich and developed today? The firm of Erximen donated 11 million taels of silver to help the army. Chin this! ā
At first, Ximen Liu was full of joy, listened and listened, and gradually felt that something was wrong, and when he finally heard that he was asked to donate 11 million taels of silver, he suddenly collapsed into the dust like a deflated ball.
Ximen Liu originally thought that he had spent 15 million taels of silver to climb the relationship with Kim Jonglei, and there would be a lot of benefits in the future, but before Kim Jonglei officially entered the city, when the monarchs and ministers of the country were still anxious about what to do in the future, he could not tell others about this benefit, so he could only steal the joy of the family.
He never expected that when Jin Zhenglei was about to enter the city, he was targeted by Emperor Wei Ming and asked him to help him with 11 million taels of silver. Although the merchant still has more than 10 million taels of silver in it, if it takes out this 11 million taels, there will be not much left. In the future, Kim Jong-lei's army will have to be taken care of after entering the city, and there will be no enough money to do things at that time. But if the money is not taken out now, it will be destroyed immediately.
You An watched coldly from the side, and when he saw Ximen Liu's reaction, he secretly snickered, and thought to himself, Ximen Liu, you also have today. said with a smile in his mouth: "Ximen Gong, congratulations!" Donating 11 million taels of silver to help the army is a great honor! It can be seen that Ximen Gong's achievements are far better than that of Ming Zhu Gong back then! is worthy of being the new richest man in the world! ā
Ximen Liu squeezed out a wry smile from between his teeth and said, "Thank you Xiangguo for this!" ā
Euan stroked his beard with his hand, and his tone was obviously mocking: "Where! Ximen Gong is a patriotic businessman appointed by the emperor, and he is extremely glorious, enough to glorify his ancestors! (To be continued.) )
