Chapter 208
See Li Xiaohuan again
Yan Zhan didn't dwell on this matter, but turned his gaze to his daughter Yan Yongchun: "What about you, it's not the same thing for a yellow flower girl to live in the Fang family, hurry up and pack your luggage, go home with your father, don't stay in the Fang family anymore and make trouble for your uncle and Aunt Fang." β
Yan Wing Chun was stunned when he heard this: "Didn't our home be copied by the government?"
Yan Zhan explained: " Dad is talking about our hometown in southern Fujian, although our southern Fujian is a little poorer, but one side of the water and soil to raise a person, Hangzhou is no matter how good, but it is not a place where we should stay, if it was not for Dad to move his family to Hangzhou more than ten years ago, maybe there would not be today's disaster, although Dad is now out of prison, but it does not mean that Dai Duo will let us go, although our Southern Fujian is not as rich as Hangzhou, but after all, it is a place that belongs to us, Dai Duo his hand is stretched no matter how long, it can not reach that place, in our own one acre and three points of land, we do not need to be afraid of Dai Duoγ β
"Yes, Dad!" Yim Wing Chun obediently agreed, although he was reluctant in his heart.
Fang De was a little surprised by Yan Zhan's decision: "Even if Master Yan wants to go back to his hometown in southern Fujian, there is no need to be in such a hurry, he will stay for two more days, so that you can invite merchants in Hangzhou to see off Master Yan, after all, everyone has been partners for many years." β
"Master Fang, your mind, Yan Mou's heart has it, you still don't have to break the bank," Yan Zhan smiled bitterly: "But although the old man is out of prison, it doesn't mean that he will be safe, Dai Duo is a mad dog raised by Prince Rong, whoever is caught will bite whom, as long as he bites, you will have to shed your skin even if you don't die, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, the old man is better to leave Hangzhou as soon as possible." β
"It's okay if Master Yan wants to go back to his hometown in southern Fujian," Fang De didn't insist anymore: " Now both the government and the opposition are staring at Hangzhou, especially Prince Rong, his mind has become heavier and heavier over the years, but Hangzhou is an important town in the south and north, he can't put such a piece of cake still, if I guess correctly, this Dai Duo must be Prince Rong's person, his purpose this time to go south, on the surface, is to promote the south to clean up and suppress the anti-Qing rebellion party, in fact, it is to run for the bad luck in the south, I believe that for a long time in the future, Hangzhou is destined to be a place of right and wrong, it is not necessarily a bad thing for Master Yan to leave at this time, at least you are completely out of this vortex of right and wrongγ β
"Master Fang, it's good that you can understand this truth," Yan Zhan followed, " As the saying goes, the poor do not fight with the rich, the people do not fight with the officials, naturally there is a reason, but since ancient times, we have been our businessmen are the lowest status among the four people, and those scholars and the government think that they are parasites that ignore production, and the people in power in the past generations have regarded us as the object of exploitation and captivity, as long as they are unhappy, they will take us under the knife, take Shen Wansan, the richest man in the Ming Dynasty, he is still rich and rival the country, but in the end, it was not copied by Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Hangzhou merchants are based on our Fang family, Yan family, The three Lei families are the head, now our Yan family has been copied for no reason, and the Lei family has also been crossed by Dai Duo, and your Fang family cannot be left alone, I believe that his next target must be your Fang family, although your Fang family donates a lot of property every year, even the Fang Long has been sold by you, but there is an old saying among the people. The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse', not to mention your Fang family, and his master, Prince Rong, alone now controls nearly 500,000 horses in the three banners of the Manchu Eight Banners, to raise so many people and horses, it is natural to need a large amount of silver, although Prince Rong Although he is a prince, he also has some savings, but his financial resources, to support so many people, it is not enough at all, this time is long, these three banners alone are enough to consume him to death, so I guess he only made a move to the Lei family, so your Fang family has a lot of power in the court, but it is better to plan for a rainy day than to dig a well in thirstγ β
Fang De nodded: "What Master Yan said is that our Fang family should find a way out for themselves." β
Then he turned to Chu Yi, who was standing aside, and said, "Go to the tent and get two thousand taels of silver tickets for Master Yan." β
Yan Zhan hurriedly said: "Master Fang, you can get Yan out of prison, Yan Zhan is already grateful, you don't need to break the bank anymore, and now your Fang family is no better than before." β
Fang De smiled: " Master Yan, you say this is too much of an outsider, although we can't be children and daughters, but we are still friends, aren't we, although our Fang family is different from the past, but you have said that the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse after all, only two thousand silver tickets, our Fang family can still take it, you don't need to be polite to Fang De, and the road from Hangzhou to southern Fujian is not a little, this road can require a lot of expenses, and then go back to your hometown in southern Fujian, you also have to settle down, sell houses and land, all of this has to use silver, no silver is impossible, if Master Yan feels that it is not possible, this silver should be borrowed from me, and there will be a chance to return it to me in the futureγ β
Since Fang De said so, Yan Zhan didn't insist anymore: "Since Master Fang, you said so, it would be a bit hypocritical for Yan to refuse." β
After Fang De took over the silver, Yan Zhan took his daughter to say goodbye to Fang De.
After leaving Fang's house, Yan Zhan heard from the people on the street that Li Xiaohuan led a gang of disciples to block the four entrances of the four streets.
Hearing that Li Xiaohuan led the crowd to block the entrance of the four streets, Yan Zhan's face was very ugly. Although he has been locked up in prison these days, he is not ignorant of things outside, especially the matter of Li Bashan's daughter Li Xiaohuan regaining the power of the Cao Gang, you must know that it was Dai Duo who raided the Lei family and drove Lei Mei off the throne of the Cao Gang, and Li Xiaohuan was able to regain the power of the Cao Gang at this time, and it must have been supported by Dai Duo, since she has the support of Dai Duo, she must do something shady for her, I believe that Li Xiaohuan is coming to herself this time.
Seeing that his father's face became ugly, Yim Wing Chun asked with great concern, "Dad, are you not feeling well?"
Yan Zhan didn't say what he was worried about, he just shook his head: "Let's go over and have a look!"
But in fact, it turned out that Yan Zhan's worries were superfluous, Li Xiaohuan didn't come to him at all, but to Yongning and Lei Mei, originally she couldn't stop Yongning, but after Lei Mei was released from prison, she insisted on going back to Lei's house, her requirements were not high, and Yongning had no reason to refuse, so he followed her back to Lei's house, but it was such a delay that Li Xiaohuan was blocked.
Seeing Li Xiaohuan from afar, Yongning was a little timid in her heart, she hid behind Lei Mei at the moment, Lei Mei was also very surprised by this, in her impression, this girl was a lawless and domineering master, but she didn't expect that she actually had a scared master: "You know Li Xiaohuan very well?"
Yongning said helplessly: "How can I not know, when my sister returned, I could offend her miserably, but what I didn't expect was that she was so vindictive, and the news was so well-informed, knowing that I was hiding in Fang's house, so I specially took someone to Sitiao Street to block me, but I'm not afraid of her, since she wants to fight with me, I Yongning will accompany me, Ziping, you go to Futai Ya immediately to report the case, just say that Gege I let people seek revenge and was blocked in four streets, let them immediately send people to Sitiao Street to arrest people." β
Before Yue Ziping could answer, Lei Mei had already said on the side: "Are you sure you want to report the case?" This Li Xiaohuan is not an outsider, she is your eldest brother Fang's old lover back then, and if you let the government arrest her, you are causing trouble for him. β
"Do you think I want to report the case," Yongning said very embarrassedly: "What if you don't report the case, Li Xiaohuan's 72nd Road chain leg is very ferocious, we can't beat her, can we let her block four streets." β
Lei Mei replied: "According to the unwritten rules of our rivers and lakes, the rivers and lakes are in the rivers and lakes, although Gege you can use the power of the government to suppress Li Xiaohuan and bow his head and commit it, and spread it to the rivers and lakes, everyone only says that Gege you rely on the power of the government to run rampant, oppress the good, and fish the people, and then Gege's reputation will be completely ruined, and besides, so many of us are in broad daylight, where are you afraid of her?"
"I'm afraid of her, it's just a joke," Yongning of course wouldn't admit that she was afraid of Li Xiaohuan, but she followed: "But her seventy-two road chain leg is very vicious, the last time she kicked me, it hurt me for several days, you tell me the truth, can you block her seventy-two way chain leg, if not, let's flash people first, we don't need to fight with her, go to other places first, etc., wait for her to leave and come back, I think she can't stay here all day." β
Lei Meizhen shook her head lightly: "How can you hide from this kind of thing, even if you avoid today, isn't there still tomorrow, you can't avoid her every day, besides, in broad daylight, under the bright sky, we don't need to be afraid of her, as long as Gege can withstand the pressure from the government, Li Xiaohuan will be dealt with by me." β
"Okay," Yongning hurriedly said, "Don't say I didn't tell you, Li Xiaohuan's seventy-two road chain legs are very ferocious." β
"Wudang in the world is not only Shaolin, we will meet Li Xiaohuan in the past. β
Lei Mei had already walked over to Li Xiaohuan as she spoke.
Seeing this, Yongning and her four followers followed closely: "If you stay and fight, you must take care of me." βγ
Lei Mei's voice was very faint: "Since I promised to be Gege's bodyguard, I won't let anyone have a chance to hurt Gege." β
"I'm relieved," Hearing her say this, Yongning's hanging heart let go: "But don't call me Gege, Brother Fang, they don't know my identity yet, they treat me as a playful little girl, you just call me Yongning, don't expose my identity in front of them." β
