Chapter 123 Investment
With the Tianxin Pill in his arms, Hong Fan returned to Asahi Temple.
At this time, it was still early, and Aunt Liu and the two little girls were basking in the sun while washing winter celery in the courtyard.
Putting down the pill, Hong Fan changed into an unobtrusive plain kudzu cloth shirt, put on a hat, and went out again.
In the next hour, he walked along the main streets, visiting all the commercial areas such as Anning Street, Chisha Avenue, Yanliu Lane, and Tianjing Hutong.
Hong Fan is not wandering aimlessly.
A few days ago, he asked Cui Yutang to help him count the ownership of most of the commercial and residential properties in Jinhai City, and marked them on the map.
Of course, the excuse is that "I have a little spare money and want to invest".
At noon today, Hong Fan received the drawings and visited them one by one while it was still dark.
Sure enough, many shops and courtyards belonging to the Li family property were quietly posted with transfer notices.
Proportionally, it is 40% of the total.
At night, Hongfu Mingshan Hall.
Hong Fan arranged a banquet in the clan kitchen and drank with Cui Yutang in a private room.
"Don't say it, I didn't pay attention to it."
Cui Dashao looked at the drawings and listened to what Hong Fan said, only to suddenly find that the Li family sought to transfer a lot of assets.
"But I did hear from my family that the Li family had recently withdrawn a lot of cash, and I thought they were going to buy something in bulk or buy shares."
"Looking at this posture now, it doesn't look like it."
He stopped talking, and there was a knock at the door.
A servant came in and served a plate of braised chicken nuggets that had just come out of the pot.
"I don't care about other people's private affairs."
Hong Fan and the others brought the door and said.
"It's just that I happen to have 1,800 taels of silver on hand now, and I have always kept it at home, and I don't call it a problem."
"You also know that I am lavish in martial arts spending, so I am looking for a small industry with this money, which is also a long-term stream."
He swallowed the chicken in his mouth and lowered his voice.
"I've been to see several of the Li family's stores - the location is good, the flow of people is strong, and the prices are very cheap now."
"But the so-called abnormal things must have demons."
"I'm not afraid of your jokes, it's because it's so good, I don't dare to do it."
When Hong Fan said this, he poured himself a glass of wine.
"In our circle, if you want to talk about business ability, Yutang you have a family history, which is unique."
"So I have to bother you a little before I can decide where to make a move if I don't make a move......
Dahua ethos, born in the merchant family, has always been three points lower than the heirloom of the lord in terms of status.
Cui Yutang usually interacts with the children of the big clan, and it is inevitable to wait for him.
At this moment, when he heard these words of admiration, the three-point strength of the wine he drank suddenly became very strong.
"What's ridiculous about Er Shao's words?"
"If you want to use money for everything, you have to be careful with your calculations!"
His eyebrows were furrowed, and his momentum was half a foot higher in an instant.
"What's more, 1,800 taels of cash, it's a lot of money wherever you put it!"
"Rest assured, you will leave this matter to me, and I will arrange it for you."
He spoke from the bottom of his heart.
"I am ten years old apart from Li Xingfa, but our relationship is as iron as a brother."
"I'll go find him myself tonight."
"Er Shao, if there is any way behind this matter, I will dig it out clearly for you!"
······
The second day, the twenty-sixth day of the first month.
After being fully stimulated by Hong Fan's subjective initiative, Cui Yutang was extremely efficient.
But twelve hours later, the matter was already in full swing.
Broken Mountain Hall, a small courtyard dotted with several bushes of yellow bamboo.
The wine and food sent by Jinfeng Lou were set on the table.
Only Hong Fan, Cui Yutang, and Li Xingfa sat down, and there was no fourth pair of ears.
"It's not a big deal, that's what happened."
After three rounds of drinking, Hong Fan spoke sincerely.
"I'm tired of Brother Li coming over, do it first as a respect!"
"Jinfeng Lou's good wine and good food are entertained, where can it be said to be tired?"
Li Xingfa hurriedly drank a glass of wine.
"The sale of real estate in the clan is indeed unspeakable."
He said in a low voice.
"My second uncle, Li Chengwang, has been stationed in the state capital and is responsible for all matters."
"The news came before, but it was said that he was addicted to gambling and owed seven or eight thousand taels of silver in the Xijing gambling house."
Li Xingfa couldn't help but slap the table as he spoke, obviously angry.
"No matter what my clan uncle says, he is also a cultivator of the seven veins, and he has made a lot of contributions to the clan, and he is detained in Xijing at this time, and we can't help it no matter what."
"Ershao, you know, there is not much silver in the war loot from Hongduo Mountain, and it is not easy to sell things in a short period of time, so the clan has to sell these shops at a cheap price first."
"For this, my family is furious."
Hearing him say this, Hong Fan nodded slowly.
"So there's nothing wrong with the shops themselves?"
"It's all good!"
Li Xingfa replied.
"It's just that the ugliness of the family can't be publicized, so these transfer matters are as low-key as possible."
"Please don't spread the word about it."
With such a request, the two naturally agreed.
After being full of wine and food, Cui Yutang sent Hong and Li out.
Hong Fan rode the Bentley back to the house and went straight to Xiongguang Temple.
That night, Hong Lie received an order to lead Sun Li and Kong Hai to go to the state capital quickly.
The three of them are all good horses, and they are all martial artists who penetrate the realm, so their speed will naturally be much faster than Zhu Jingfu.
It is estimated that 17 or 80 miles a day is enough for half a month to go back and forth.
······
The twenty-eighth day of the first month.
In the side compartment of Xiongguang Courtyard, the high-level members of the Hong family are there.
Hong Wu stood in the hall and reported what he had seen.
"The caravan on the southwest line of the Chi family has returned, saying that it has received several anonymous letters on the way, all of which are threatening words."
"The Li family is too."
"I heard Li Duwei say that Xijing's Yuan Magnetic Master 'shocked a hundred miles' Jiang Qihu actually wrote a letter to them, persuading them to return the goods to the palace family as much as possible."
"Speaking of which, when the sword and crane were hanging high in the sky, these two people were still close friends."
He sneered.
The Yuan Magnetic Master is terrifying, but a letter from the Yuan Magnetic Master cannot scare the Jinhai City Judgment of the Sixth Grade.
"I've heard that many of the second-tier families in the city are a little shaken?"
Hong Li asked.
"There is no Qi Realm martial artist in his family, so he is naturally grass under the wind, and he can't afford to harden his bones."
Hong Wu replied casually.
"I heard an interesting story from Master Wen today."
He said and looked at Hong Fan.
"The main business of the Gong family is to mine jade, which has something to do with the instrument supervisor."
"Master Wen said that he received a letter from the Tongguang device as a supervisor, promising some benefits, and wanted to give us some extra weight."
Hearing this, the Hong family members present all laughed.
With Hong Fan, the "dragon of the general and the essence of Dahua", if you want Wen Zhongguan to deal with the Hong family, I am afraid that it is not easy for the state government to speak.
"Just this morning, Quan Kaihong and Lu Yirui also came to look for me."
Hong Ming said.
"He said that he was willing to make some concessions to our family in private."
Hong Wu laughed when he heard this: "What do you say?" ”
"It's a discount on the previous basis."
Hong Ming replied.
"The three of them originally wanted us to return 12,000 taels of silver, but Quan Kaihong said that it could be less than 2,000."
"Xingjun helped them train their children, and they lost two thousand?"
Hong Sheng interjected.
"The people of Yuquan are small."
Relaxed laughter rang out in the room.
Everyone understands that this play is probably related to Hong Fan's crushing and defeating of Kwon Hwa Young in Tinghai Pavilion.
In Yuquan City, Quan Huarong is a good player of the younger generation, and he has become a millstone palm in the cross-border border through the border.
But such a person didn't move, but he couldn't even catch Hong Fan's move.
