Chapter 380: The Order Arrives
Early the next morning, Akihito hurried back to Bailongchuan, while Fanning went to the Mine Inspectorate to inspect the warehouse, which was called a warehouse instead of a silver warehouse because in addition to coarse silver ingots, there was also a large amount of natural sulfur.
Accompanying Fan Ning to visit the warehouse was Ma Feng, the Kunzhou mine supervisor, who was a eunuch, but he was very shrewd and knew how to be sophisticated, and he was not as arrogant as the ordinary mine supervisor.
This is actually understandable, send a mine supervisor who likes to be powerful or harsh, maybe the sea ship will capsize halfway, don't think that the Cao family and the Gao family can't do it.
"Fan Zhizhou, this is the main warehouse of silver ingots!"
Fanning followed him into a huge warehouse, which was filled with large wooden boxes, and outside was a row of wooden shelves, on which were thick silver ingots, each weighing twenty pounds, lying heavily on the shelves.
Since the silver mine was mined three years ago, it has not been transported to the capital, and I don't know how much it has been stored?
Yun Fanning patted the silver ingot and asked with a smile, "How much inventory is there now?" ”
"About 300,000 catties! Nothing more, no less. ”
Fanning quickly estimated that it was about five million taels, but this was only rough silver, and it had to be refined, but it was at least four million taels.
"I may have to go back to Da Song soon, why don't you follow my fleet and transport it back!"
"That's the best, then please Fan Zhizhou."
"You're welcome, Mingren has harassed the Ma Mine Supervisor in the past two days, and I have been scolded by me and slipped back."
This is the main purpose of Fanning's visit to the warehouse, to find an opportunity to thank Ma Feng for his favor, Mingren is not sensible, and came to harass the Ma Mine Supervisor, no matter whether the Ma Mine Supervisor is comfortable or not, he has to make a statement.
"This year, the horse mine supervisor has really worked hard, we all see it in our eyes, when we came, I was white and fat, but now I have become very black and thin, I will show the official family for the horse mine supervisor."
Ma Feng was very comfortable in his heart, and said with a smile: "It's all for the official family, and it should be hard work, although Fan Zhizhou can rest assured, with me, Mingren and Mingli will not suffer." ”
"Then please take care of the mine supervisor!"
.........
It was much closer from Mangchuan Town to Han County, and in the afternoon, Fanning arrived in Han County.
Compared with two years ago, the population of Han County has doubled to 3,000 households, and with the addition of 1,200 households in Tang County and 800 households in Jin County, the population of Kunzhou has reached 5,000 households, with more than 26,000 people.
It was not early, Fanning went home directly, and the soldiers returned to the barracks, Fanning's mansion was not very populous, in addition to his wife Zhu Pei, the bodyguard Jian Meizi and the personal maid Aya, there were five more Japanese maids, but the house did not cook, they were all delivered on time three times a day by the largest Yang's restaurant in Han County.
Fanning returned to the mansion, took off his coat to Aya, and asked, "What about Madame?" ”
"Yu Changshi's wife is here, and Mrs. is chatting with her in the back house."
"Alright! I went to the study. ”
Fanning came to his study and sat down, Aya brought him a cup of hot tea, Fanning saw that the foam was rich, and he couldn't hang the cup, so he couldn't help but nod and praise: "The tea is good!" ”
Aya is blessed, "Thank you for the compliment!" ”
Fan Ning saw that she was well-behaved, and her heart moved, so she pulled her in front of her, hugged her in her arms, and after a lot of words, Aya Qiao's face turned red, and she whispered: "If the official comes back and doesn't tell Madame, she will be angry." ”
Fanning let go of her and said with a smile: "Inform Madame that I am back." ”
"Yes!"
Aya saluted obediently, glanced at Fanning secretly, turned around and ran.
Looking at her petite figure running away, Fanning shook her head, time flies quickly, she has been following Ju Pei for three years, she is almost seventeen years old, since the day Ju Pei married herself, this little girl actually played the role of a maid in the room, when she had sex with her wife in the past two years, she basically served outside, and even the most secret things of this kind of couple did not avoid her, so it was only a matter of time to take her down.
Fanning took a sip of hot tea, and the sound of footsteps outside sounded rapidly, only to see Ju Pei rush into the study like a gust of wind, and suddenly threw herself into her husband's arms, hugged his neck and kissed him heavily on the face, and giggled: "When did you come back?" ”
Fanning patted her round buttocks and smiled, "It seems to be in a good mood?" ”
"Of course, I'm going home, my heart is starting to give birth to wings, and I can't wait to fly back to Da Song now."
"Why is Mrs. Yu here today? It seems to be the first time I have come to the door! ”
Zhu Pei pouted, "She just came to see her future official residence, and asked me to take her around the mansion, saying that she came to visit our house, but I don't know what she thinks?" ”
"Mrs. Yu is also an anxious child!"
"Their family has a large population, and the house is smaller than ours, she must be in a hurry!"
Zhu Pei simply sat on her husband's lap, put her arms around his neck and said with a smile: "Speaking of the ceremony, was my third brother right?" ”
Fanning nodded, "If you really want to me off to death, the child is three months old, it's a boy, I don't know how to explain to the second uncle and aunt?" ”
"Did you see the child?"
Fan Ning shook his head, "Mingli refused to come to see me, I listened to Mingren, I asked him to tell Mingli and send the mother and son to Han County." ”
"What the hell is that woman..... Who is it? ”
"It's a Japanese woman, but it's relatively innocent, not the kind of woman I'm worried about, working as a guy in a clothing store, and being favored by Mingli, the two have been together since the beginning of last year."
"Then it doesn't matter, maybe the second uncle and aunt are very happy, after all, it's a boy!"
Fan Ning smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I should get married first, the second uncle is very conservative, I'm afraid he won't accept this result." ”
"Second uncle is conservative?"
Zhu Pei giggled, "As you told me, your second uncle and second aunt lived together before they got married, and they gave birth to Akihito and Mingli seven months after they got married. ”
Fanning sighed halfway and said: "It is precisely because of this that the second uncle does not want Mingren and Mingli to repeat the mistakes of the past, I promised them that the two stinky boys will not mess around outside, and the result is ......."
"Husband, you can't keep an eye on them all the time, don't blame yourself anymore, explain it clearly to the second uncle and aunt, the situation won't be too bad."
Zhu Pei gave advice for Fan Ning: "Why don't you let Mingli accept her as a concubine, and then tell the second uncle and aunt that she is the son who first takes a concubine and then has another son, so that she will have a reputation?" ”
Fan Ning's eyes lit up, this is a good way, he hugged his wife and smiled: "Come on!" Reward the lady well! ”
Zhu Pei hurriedly pushed him away, gritted his teeth in a low voice, "It's daytime, it will be heard!" ”
At this moment, Aya's voice came from outside, "Madam, official, Yu Changshi is here." ”
Zhu Peiteng jumped up and glared at her husband fiercely, but fortunately he didn't let him succeed just now.
Fanning got up and smiled: "I guess there's something, I'll take a look." ”
Walking to the door, Zhu Pei reminded him from behind: "Husband, maybe he came to find Madame, you said she has gone back." ”
"Got it?"
Fanning smiled and shook his head, how could he come to his house to find his wife?
Walking to the door of the mansion, I saw Yu Xiaonian smiling and stepping forward, "I can't talk about anything tomorrow, but I just came back, and I don't have time to take a sip of hot tea!" Fanning laughed.
"Really? Then I'm leaving, don't you regret it? Yu Xiaonian turned around and left.
Fan Ning hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed him and said with a smile: "Lao Yu, it's easy to say, what's the matter?" ”
Yu Xiaonian handed him a pigeon letter, "I just received it." ”
Fan Ning hurriedly took the pigeon letter, took out a roll of paper, and slowly unfolded it, with only one sentence on it, 'When the term of Zhizhou expires, Fan Ning can return to the Ministry of Officials to hand over his post, and Yu Xiaonian temporarily replaces Zhizhou!' 'The failure is written by Wen Yanbo himself, and it is stamped with the seal of the Zhizheng Hall. ’
Fanning let out a long sigh of relief, and was finally going back.
.......
Three days later, in the study, Fanning slapped the table with a black face and scolded: "You still have the face to come to see me!" Look at the good things you have done, how can I explain to your parents? ”
Li lowered his head and said nothing, Fan Ning gritted his teeth with hatred, "The children are all born, what is his name?" Is it an illegitimate child, or is it your legitimate child? ”
Mingli stood up and said angrily: "I'll take their mother and son away, don't worry about you!" ”
Mingli turned around to leave, and Mingren grabbed him next to him, "You let him scold, and when he finishes scolding, he will help you!" ”
Fanning glared at Akihito fiercely, but the anger in Fanning's heart did dissipate a lot, and he pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you want to marry her?" ”
Mingli nodded, "I can't afford to lose my son. ”
"In that case, you will take her as a concubine!"
Akihito's eyes widened, "A-Ning, it seems that we can't marry a concubine yet!" ”
Fanning took out two letters of appointment from the drawer and threw them on the table, "This is your letter of appointment!" ”
Akihito jumped over and grabbed the letter of appointment, and said in surprise: "Flying Cavalry Captain, we are actually Flying Cavalry Captain, why does the imperial court give us honors?" ”
Fan Ning said angrily: "You were the first to discover Kunzhou Jintian, I reported it to you, and the imperial court gave you a commendation and named you a flying cavalry captain." ”
"How did we not know? When did it happen? ”
Akihito looked at the date below, and suddenly screamed, "It turned out to be two years ago, you didn't tell us, what do you mean, do you want to ignore our lord?" ”
Fanning snatched the letter of appointment from him, "If you talk nonsense, I'll tear it up!" ”
Mingren hurriedly put on a smiling face, grabbed Fanning's arm and said, "Don't tear it!" Don't tear! Don't tear it, brother, I rely on it to marry a concubine. ”
Mingli didn't have a hippie smile, he sighed and said, "Then let's give Reiko a name first!" ”
Fanning sat down, thought for a while, and said, "No matter what, let her mother and son meet the second uncle and aunt, and let them go with me, and Akihito with me." ”
"Of course I do!"
Akihito spread his hands and said helplessly: "Anyway, all the gold is in your place, and I can only be at your mercy." ”
Mingli hesitated, "Do they have to go?" ”
Fan Ning knew that he was reluctant to give up his son, so he said: "The ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her in-laws, the sooner you meet, the sooner you can rest assured, fortunately, Kunzhou is far overseas, you can find a reason to tell your parents, I will try my best to complete this matter for you, but just this time, I am not in Kunzhou, don't you pop up a pair of mother and son, do you hear?" ”
Mingli nodded, "I know, there won't be any in the future." ”
"Go ahead! They are in the East Courtyard, you will have a good reunion for two days, and you will leave early the day after tomorrow. ”
