Chapter 17: Hengli

[17] Hengli

He Wannian was going to persuade Yao Fan, but now he was taken into the ditch by Yao Fan, thinking, if Yao Fan was targeted, wouldn't that be tantamount to targeting himself?

Yao Fan saw that He Shicheng was shaken, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and continued to drag He Wannian's crooked train of thought to run around: "Brother He, do you have a way to kill this Guo family?" I'm afraid that this time I provoked this head snake, and if I don't pay attention one day, I will be calculated by him, if I am bitten by this head snake, won't I be disgusted to death by you and me. ”

He Wannian was now confused by Yao Fan's solemnity, and said in his heart, isn't this really a jealousy? Is it really the Guo family who wants to give foreign maritime merchants a dismount?

But He Wannian is old after all, but it is not easy for Yao Fan to stir him up, after hesitating for a while, He Wannian carefully persuaded: "Brother Yao, since you have already made the silver, presumably with the official authority of Lord Wei, you will definitely be able to come back, I think this is the back, don't toss, as long as you are careful to beware of the Guo family." ”

Yao Fan knew that the key to convincing others was whether he was resolute enough, and he shook his head: "People don't hurt the tiger, and the tiger eats people's hearts." Although this grievance should be resolved and not settled, if it is settled, it must be separated from life and death. I inquired about this Guo Jixiu, he is a strong lord, he saw that I was a newcomer, and he would definitely not break with me. If I compromise and surrender, the end may be a dead word. ”

He Wannian saw Yao Fan say this, and sat blankly for a long time, in his pawnshop career, although there have been secret fights in shopping malls, but they are all competition according to the rules, and they have never been out of line, let alone have a serious conflict with the local big family, no matter what the reason, not once.

However, He Wannian carefully pondered Guo Jixiu's reputation and past rumors, and thought about what Yao Fan said, "Look at the problem through the appearance, and see the essence through the phenomenon". After thinking about it in his heart, he felt that Yao Fan's words did make sense.

"It's a matter of taking sides!" He Wannian felt a sigh in his heart, and immediately made up his mind. said: "Since Brother Yao and I have cooperated in such a big deal, it is natural for us to speak together. What Brother Yao said is reasonable, you can't have the heart to harm others, and you can't have the heart to prevent people. Although we pay attention to harmony and make money in business, we can't let others kick our noses in the face, and now that we have offended the Guo family, we will really guard against him, worry about him, and probe him in the future. ”

Yao Fan pondered He Wannian's words carefully, and said in his heart that although these Chinese businessmen are full of faith, they still uphold pragmatism in the end. And his own persuasion and co-optation did play a role, He Wannian's attitude was not ambiguous, and he completely fell to himself.

"What Brother He said is exactly what I want. Your He family has a deep relationship in the local area, please inform the clansmen, pay more attention to the Guo family in the future, and if there is a chance, we will kick him to death. Having said that, Brother He stopped talking to me last night, didn't you know that something happened to Chunmian Hall at that time? ”

He Wannian's face flushed, and he didn't answer positively, and said around the bend: "Don't hide it from Brother Yao, my He Wannian's participation in Zaofan is equivalent to my He family's participation in Zaofan Firm, and a small half of my capital is invested by relatives in my family." Now that Guo Jixiu and Brother Yao can't get along, it will hurt my He family, and the He family can't agree. Now that he has torn his face, he simply fights to win or lose. ”

Yao Fan naturally would not pursue He Wannian's temporary concealment at this moment, and he said encouragingly: "Brother He, it is very important that you can stand on the same front with me, which is beneficial to us and our family, and it is also very important for the future exhibition of the business."

There is an old saying in my family, 'unity is strength', although your He family's foundation in the officialdom is not as strong as the Guo family, but when it comes to being familiar with the local area, Cheng DΓΉ will not lose to it at all. Although I am an outsider and have no local roots, in terms of material and financial resources, I will not lose to the Guo family, so I will join forces to make the Guo family lose its threat to us sooner or later. And our united struggle will certainly raise our friendship to a new height of solidarity and solidarity. ”

He Wannianxin said that there are really a lot of fresh words from Yao Fan, unity is strength, and this is really reasonable. But he is really cautious enough, because a woman actually sniffed out a lot of danger signals and deliberately strangled the Guo family to death as a hidden danger, which is indeed a rare character that must be retribution.

Yao Fan seemed to see He Shicheng's thoughts, and frowned: "It's not that I will repay it, it's just that the axiom of the king law of the Great Qing Kingdom is too blind." The Guo family has backers in the officialdom and local power, and if they plot a blow to me, I may not be able to dodge it. Brother He, do you think I should sit still?

There is an old saying in my family, treat your enemies as warm as spring, and treat your enemies as cruel and ruthless as winter. Brother He pondered slowly. ”

He Wannian's eyes widened and looked at Yao Fan, in his heart he had raised Yao Fan's status to a new height.

Who is the most terrible person in this world? It's not a hooligan, it's not a hooligan who knows martial arts, because since you can be a hooligan, you always have two brushes in your hand, and if you want to say that the really terrible thing is a reasonable hooligan, if this hooligan is not only reasonable, but also has a theory to prove his truth, this is a big hooligan.

The three sentences that Yao Fan inadvertently said just now, "unity is strength", "look at the problem through the appearance, see the essence through the phenomenon", "treat comrades as warm as spring, and treat the enemy as cruel and ruthless as winter", so that He Wannian's thinking has been continuously impacted. He Wannian felt that the family motto of the Yao family was really amazing, and he must try to use the rest to learn from and educate his own children another day.

He Wannian came back to his senses and reminded: "Brother Yao, beware of being careful, our first priority at the moment is to hurry up and go out to withdraw funds." ”

"I have written a business letter, the letter bureau to Zhili, Jiangnan area of the various firms, I think we have more goods but less semicolons, if all go retail will be too slow, should be sold with batches."

Yao Fan agreed: "That's good, fast words are the last word." ”

After He Wannian left, Yao Fan personally carried 20,000 taels of silver tickets, took his buddies He Shicheng and Wang Chuannian as bodyguards, and ran to Hengli Gold Store to exchange gold. Because the price of Hengli is fixed in the head office, it has not changed after Yao Fan's last exchange of huΓ n, which is still 1 to 16.59. After calculating the fire consumption, a full 38 kilograms of gold should be obtained.

But the problem came again, Hengli didn't have so much gold at the moment, and there were only more than forty catties of gold in the library, which was the last time Yao Fan exchanged huΓ n, and specially told Hengli to come to redeem it in ten days, so he specially transferred it from nearby states and counties.

Yao Fan had just come to exchange for gold a few days ago, and this time he came again, how could Hengli's guys not recognize him.

Zhang Baichuan, the boss of Hengli's branch in Qingdaokou, immediately greeted him in person, only to see a lean middle-aged man wearing a black melon skin hat, a green long shirt, black cloth shoes, white socks, and a white face without a beard walked out.

He made two gestures to Yao Fan in a row, and ordered Yao Fan to show tea and chatted with Yao Fan enthusiastically, which made people feel very cordial and enthusiastic.

In recent years, businessmen often have some contact with each other, Zhang Baichuan also thought so, and inquired directly: "I heard that Boss Yao's overseas business is very large, I wonder if there are any semicolons in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Xi'an, Wuhan and other places?" Have you ever dealt with the branches of my Hengli gold store before? ”

Yao Fan looked at the guy who was busy weighing gold at the counter, thought for a moment and replied: "Business, once born and twice cooked, haven't we already dealt with each other." ”

Zhang Baichuan was stunned for a moment and then laughed and said: "Exactly, but I hope that Boss Yao will always come and go in the future, and my Hengli's credit is nothing to say." ”

Yao Fan followed his memory of history, and said in his heart that in the future, when the Eight-Nation Alliance enters Beijing to grab a handful of them, and move out of the capital treasury of your four Hengs, you will all be finished by then, and your credit will be a bird.

"Boss Zhang, to get down to business, you don't have enough gold here for me to redeem. You say I'm smashing your signboard? Or smash your signboard? Or do you still smash your signboard? The choice is yours. ”

Zhang Baichuan took around for a long time to react, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Boss Yao is really good at laughing, don't worry, just 76 catties of gold, I Hengli can get it in three days." ”

Yao Fan had no choice but to say: "It's only like this, now you give me forty catties in the library first." It stands to reason that last time I told your men that I would want a lot of gold in the future, but you are too stingy to even redeem the full 20,000 taels. ”

Zhang Baichuan said embarrassedly: "Otherwise, Boss Yao will greet me in advance in the future, and I will arrange in advance to transfer the sea ship from Tianjin and Shanghai." ”

Yao Fan said: "This idea is okay, then I will book at your place this time, you give me forty catties first, and the remaining thirty-six catties will be given next time." ”

Zhang Baichuan clenched his fists and shook his chest and said, "If you make a reservation, Boss Yao has to pay for the fire first." ”

Yao Fan didn't care about this, so he paid the rest of the gold to be redeemed first.

Yao Fan lowered his head and played with the tea leaves with the lid of the bowl, and asked carefully: "I wonder if Hengli has any discounts for big customers?" ”

Qingdaokou is a small place, and Zhang Baichuan certainly knows that Yao Fan's goods have just been transported into the city. He heard that Yao Fan's goods were as many as hundreds of boxes, all of which were high-quality foreign goods.

In the eyes of businessmen, so many freight in, it is equivalent to a tumultuous silver in the middle, if Yao Fan is willing to put all the silver in Hengli, it is a great achievement for the small Hengli branch in Qingdaokou.

Zhang Baichuan had such a calculation as early as after Yao Fan came to exchange huΓ n gold for the first time, and it happened that Yao Fan came to the door by himself today, of course, he couldn't miss the opportunity.

"Boss Yao can be regarded as asking the right person, I dare not say others, but Boss Yao, you are a maritime businessman, thousands of boxes of foreign goods are imported at a time, such a big business, I Hengli is naturally willing to make a long-term relationship with you."

Yao Fan didn't talk to Zhang Baichuan, and said bluntly: "That's just a shipload of goods, in the future, my big ship will come here, and a ship will be more than a thousand boxes."

But I don't like silver, I like gold, it's too heavy and too heavy, it's not easy to transport overseas. ”

Picking up the bowl and taking a sip of tea, Yao Fan continued: "I know that Boss Zhang means to be with me, I am a good talker, if Hengli can give me a discount on fire consumption, all my silver in the future will be placed in Hengli to exchange huΓ n." ”
