Chapter 236: Paying the Money Back

Li Chenan spent a day at the blacksmith shop on the bank of Peach Blossom Creek.

It's not that he has any other way to improve this thing, but to discuss with Huang Sanlie the next issue of forging weapons and equipment in this blacksmith shop.

According to Wu Xichen's analysis of this smelting method, the weapons forged, whether sharp or hard, far surpass all the weapons of various countries today.

So it's something ahead of its time, so it has to be kept secret!

It's just that it's too cumbersome to build and takes a long time.

According to Li Gang, to build a sword, a skilled craftsman may only be able to build one a day.

Then we must recruit more blacksmiths, and we must get all those blacksmiths under the door of Zhongli Mansion.

This kind of thing was left to Huang Sanlie to worry about, and Li Chenan gave Li Gang two tasks 🀲-

Craft a dagger.

Craft another twenty Xiao Li Flying Knives.

When the sun set, Li Chenan and Wu Xichen left the blacksmith workshop and went to cook rain in a small building.

In the small building of boiling rain, Huo Chuanming, the newly appointed prefect of Guangling, was waiting for him.

When Huo Chuanming saw Li Chen'an coming, he hurriedly got up and saluted with a fist: "Master Li, long time no see!" ”

Li Chenan returned the salute with a fist: "Lord Huo, congratulations!" ”

"Haha, rejoicing and rejoicing!"

Li Chen'an invited Huo Chuanming to sit down, he boiled a pot of tea, and said with some regret: "Actually, I have heard about your succession to the prefect of Guangling, and I should have gone to your house to congratulate you, but I unexpectedly received a task from the Fish Dragon Society." ”

"This task is a bit urgent, and an inspector has been sent down from above, so I can't get out, I thought I would go to your house tomorrow night, but I didn't expect Master Huo to come here, I'm really embarrassed!"

Huo Chuanming waved his hand, "Gongzi Li is the helmsman of the Ichthyosaurus Society, there will definitely be a lot of things, and my little thing is not a big deal...... I would like to ask, what mission did the Ichthyosaurus Club send you? ”

Li Chenan twisted a handful of tea leaves and put them in the teapot, and said indifferently: "Kill Liu Chu!" ”

Huo Chuanming was taken aback, and asked again in disbelief: "Really?" ”

"Of course, Liu Chu died in the lake of Linfengdu."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Huo Chuanming gasped, this matter was beyond his imagination, because Liu Chu was very helpful to Li Chen when he was in office.

Liu Chu is Hua Manting's protΓ©gΓ©, and he Li Chen'an is Hua Manting's New Year's friend.

No matter how he thought about it, it was impossible for him to kill Liu Chu.

But since the Ichthyosaurus Society has sent an inspector to come, I'm afraid this matter can't be faked.

This kid is ruthless!

Sure enough, it's a character!

No wonder when my uncle went to Kyoto, he said that before the situation was unknown, he must not provoke Li Chen'an!

"This is the ...... I shouldn't have asked. ”

Li Chen'an raised his eyebrows, "It's nothing, sooner or later it will spread out, or even to Kyoto, Brother Hua will definitely know." ”

"As for what he's going to do to me when he finds out...... Just wait and see. ”

Huo Chuanming bowed slightly, "I think that the Fish Dragon Club will also resist one or two for you...... Is Liu Chu really from Zhongli Mansion? ”

Li Chenan nodded, "This person, it's not appropriate to step on two boats after all." ”

"Now that I have become a member of the Fish and Dragon Society, I have to stay away from Zhongli Mansion, and I have done this, one is to show my attitude to Prime Minister Ji, and the other is to see what kind of measures Zhongli Mansion will take to me."

Huo Chuanming glanced at Li Chenan with some concern, thinking that if Zhongli Mansion wants to deal with you, I'm afraid Prime Minister Ji won't be able to protect you.

This kid is too daring.

However, this also confirmed that there was no other relationship between him and the third lady of Zhongli Mansion.

The Ichthyosaurus Club gave him such a task, and I am afraid that he also needs to know his choice. Now he has chosen the Fish Dragon Club, which is to stand on the opposite side of Zhongli Mansion with a clear banner...... The Huo family's strength is not enough now, but in fact, the Huo family is also on the opposite side of Zhongli Mansion.

In this way, you can have a deep friendship with this kid!

If the uncle brings Huo Shu back, this kid may still be the uncle of Huo Mansion.

"You need to be careful!"

Huo Chuanming Li Chen'an became worried, "That old lady in Zhongli Mansion is a master of the Holy Rank, if you kill her people in Zhongli Mansion now, I'm afraid that she will send a master of the rivers and lakes to take your life!" ”

"So, I'll send ...... tomorrow"

Before he finished his words, Li Chenan smiled slightly, "This matter bothered you, but this is the next policy after all." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What's the best policy? ”

"I'm going to go to Kyoto in two days, go to Dingguo Houfu, and plead guilty to that old lady!"

Huo Chuanming was stunned for a moment, and suddenly shouted: "Brilliant plan!" Coup! ”

It is not easy to guard against the assassination of Zhongli Mansion, so this is the next policy.

The best strategy is to dispel the hatred of Zhongli Mansion, and even gain the friendship of Zhongli Mansion!

Only in this way can he, Li Chen'an, be safe.

"I'm coming to you today because I want to discuss something with you."

Huo Chuanming was relieved and talked about the business that came here.

"Your peach blossom brew has left a way for my Huo family's Guanglingsan, I won't say much if I thank you, I think ......" He leaned over and said in a low voice: "Linfeng crosses that place, we can join forces and take the luck of that place into our own hands!" ”

"That's a big piece of fat, guaranteed to make you a lot of money!"

Li Chenan looked at Huo Chuanming in surprise, this guy was actually fighting the idea of Linfeng Crossing.

"That's a little late."

Huo Chuanming was stunned, and Li Chenan said again: "Linfeng crossed that place, the inspector took a fancy to the adult, and asked me to take it after forming this Guangling rudder, not for my benefit, but for the benefit above." ”

Huo Chuanming sighed with great regret, but this is not a big loss, as long as the Linfeng Ferry is in the hands of Li Chen'an.

What the Huo family needs is those boats.

"Then there are some other businesses, such as salt and iron, are you interested?"

Li Chen'an's eyes suddenly lit up, the two things of salt and iron were extremely strictly managed by the government, and Huang Sanlie also got more than 100 catties of iron ingots through the channels of Zhongli Mansion, which was far from enough for Li Chen'an's needs.

Originally, for this matter, he was also looking for a time to chat with Huo Chuanming, but he didn't expect Huo Chuanming to hand the words in front of him.

"This can be had!"

"Good! After you master Linfengdu, you will sell the salt of Guangling Prefecture to Qianzhou, Zizhou and other salt-deficient places, and the benefits are huge! ”

Li Chenan also leaned over, "Okay, sixty percent of its profits will be yours!" ”

"The Huo family only needs fifty percent."

"What about iron? Can we produce iron ore in Guangling Prefecture? ”

"Yes, there are three official iron mines, but two have been abandoned over the years."

"What about those two abandoned reserves?"

"I don't know yet, but I think the reserves won't be small."

"Then can you turn those two official mines into my name? Half of the profit is yours. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Okay, that's it! ”

"Lord Huo is bright, if the Huo family has trouble outside, it is inconvenient for Lord Huo to make a move, just tell me."

The two foxes with their own ghosts conspired, and in this way, the livelihood of those who had the greatest interests in Guangling Prefecture was finalized.

"I'll go to Kyoto first these days, and Lord Huo just manages this Guangling Prefecture to the fullest. When I come back, let's do a big job, and promise to let Master Huo get promoted and make a fortune, what about me Li Chenan...... You can also be more happy in this Guangling City! ”

"Okay, I'll write you a handwritten letter later, the head of the family is also on the way to Kyoto, then you can go and meet the head of the house, if you can see my cousin Huo Baiyang again......"

Huo Chuanming leaned over: "Xu Neng can help you turn evil into good fortune!" ”
