380 Pretending
"What should I do with this kind of thief who sells the country and seeks honor? He will break one of his legs before letting him go. Seeing such a person is embarrassing and really gives their ancestors a face." Li Nian said with an unhappy look on his face.
For Li Nian, the most hated thing is a traitor, and it doesn’t matter how hard he fights with his own people. After all, these are considered "family affairs". It is worse than beasts to bring outsiders in to hurt his compatriots. Besides, Li Nian still knows that Fan Yongdou has been making money in the national crisis, which is simply a black heart.
Lu Haoshan smiled and said indifferently: "Mr. Li is a little worried. A gentleman can get along with each other, but villains can't get along with each other, but they can be deceived. Why do you have to be as knowledgeable as him?"
"What does Dongwen mean?"
Lu Haoshan blinked at Li Nian. Li Nian immediately understood Lu Haoshan's intentions and bowed and said, "Sir, the students understand, go and do it right away."
Li Nian went to prepare, while Lu Hao, Shandong took the generous gift list and looked at it, then whistled a little proudly, and put it in his sleeve without any pretentiousness.
These ill-gotten gains will naturally make the better.
Just when Lu Haoshan was about to plot against Fan Yongdou, Fan Yongdou was a little nervous. A few years ago, he had an intersection with Lu Haoshan. At that time, Lu Haoshan was still a small thousand household, and at most a brave and meticulous Xiao Qianhu. He cheated himself of a large sum of silver and borrowed a large sum of silver to develop. Unexpectedly, Xiao Qianhu, who was like a gangster, has become a person who has become a separatist and has a heavy army.
It is most appropriate to describe it as thirty years Hedong and thirty years Hexi. However, Fan Yongdou never dreamed that the greedy Xiao Qianhu would become the object he had to flatter.
The generous gift was sent in, without a reply for a long time, but Fan Yongdou had been waiting patiently. In fact, the guard at the gate just now said that Governor Lu was discussing major events with his subordinates, and it was possible that he had not received such a quick meeting. Fan Yongdou and his men could only wait. However, Fan Yongdou had always been very heartful, just like he had been waiting for the Qing Dynasty to enter the pass for more than ten years.
As long as you recognize something, you will continue to go on without hesitation. This is Fan Yongdou's way of success and also a way of recommendation.
I don't know how long it took for the Tun to open, and the guard who had taken advantage of him just now walked out. Seeing himself staring at him, he nodded, and showed a pleasing smile on his lips. Then he walked straight over.
"Mr. Fan, please, the discussion has been completed. My master invites you to come in and have a gathering."
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Fan Yongdou had no airs and was polite to a person who was keeping the gate.
If Lu Haoshan was present, if he didn't know his behavior, he would definitely think that he was a well-educated and knowledgeable person. Unfortunately, Lu Haoshan had already figured out Fan Yongdou's background.
Fan Yongdou followed the guard in. Just after entering the Governor's Mansion, Lu Haoshan smiled and greeted him. Seeing Fan Yongdou with a complicated expression, Lu Haoshan said enthusiastically: "It turns out that Mr. Fan is here. I didn't say it earlier. I have been welcomed. I have been welcomed."
"Governor General is so polite." Fan Yongdou said in a trepidation: "Fan is just a slutty friend. It's really a sin to have the help of Governor General."
Lu Haoshan laughed and said with a serious look: "I and Mr. Fan are old friends. Besides, Mr. Fan borrowed money to overcome difficulties a few years ago. I still remember this love clearly."
"Sir, I really have a good memory," Fan Yongdou said quickly: "I'm not hiding this, Mr. Fan has long forgotten about this."
Can you forget hundreds of thousands of taels? This is really beautiful.
Lu Haoshan didn't say anything and took Fan Yongdou straight into the lobby. As soon as he entered the lobby, he saw a row of boxes parked in the lobby. Lu Haoshan signaled his men to open them one by one. As soon as the boxes were opened, the whole hall was full of brilliance. The yellow one was gold and the white one was silver. The golden light seemed to illuminate the lobby all at once.
Fortunately, he won a lot of money from Zhang Xianzhong, so Lu Haoshan asked his men to carry the silver out of the bank warehouse and place it in the lobby, causing a mountain of gold and silver to accumulate.
"Governor, what do you mean?" Fan Yongdou said in surprise.
Lu Haoshan said seriously: "Mr. Fan, six years ago, I borrowed 300,000 taels of silver from you in Shanxi. The profit was deducted in advance. Here was gold and silver worth 300,000 taels. Mr. Fan asked to inspect and collect it."
"Sir, you are polite." Fan Yongdou was shocked, but he quickly took out the loan note written by Lu Haoshan in person that year. After Lu Haoshan's view, he tore it up on the spot.
"Mr. Fan, what do you mean?" Li Nian asked in confusion.
"Governor General" Fan Yongdou said respectfully: "These are all jokes from back then. Please don't take them seriously. This is just 300,000 taels, just treat it as Fan's help to the adults. Please accept it with a smile."
Lu Haoshan owed 300,000 taels of silver, and now it is returned to the maturity. However, Fan Yongdou's purpose in this trip was not to urge the repayment of the silver, but to bear the order of the Qing Dynasty's freshman Dorgon, to win over Lu Haoshan. It is best to let Lu Haoshan lead 100,000 Sichuan troops to surrender like Wu Sangui, and at the least it would make Lu Haoshan neutral. 300,000 taels is more than 300,000 taels, but once the Qing Dynasty accomplished, he would be a "founding hero". At that time, it would be no problem to be promoted. Fan Yongdou, who had made a lot of money in collusion with the Qing Dynasty over the years, would not look down on this mere 300,000 taels.
To be honest, it is a bit difficult to bring so much money out of Sichuan.
"This, why are you so embarrassed? Everyone says that there are loans and returns. Mr. Fan does this, wouldn't this cause the official to be injustice?" Lu Haoshan said seriously.
"The Governor General misunderstood," Fan Yongdou quickly explained: "This time, the salary assistance is mainly to thank the adults for avenging my Fan family. To be honest, my Fan family has a large number of industries in Huguangda and Jiangxi. However, after Zhang Xianzhong's thief took over the second place, he suppressed the business of my Fan family and killed many children of the Fan family. This is a bloody hatred. I thought it would be difficult to avenge this life, but I didn't expect that the Governor General General would fulfill this wish for the villain, which is really satisfying. So, please accept this little meaning."
He really made a trip, and he made another 300,000 taels at once. Lu Haoshan was too lazy to talk to such a traitor, so he stopped pushing him anymore, and accepted it happily.
In fact, even if Fan Yongdou dared to accept it, Lu Haoshan would not let him bring the money out of Sichuan.
After instructing his subordinates to carry the silver down, Lu Haoshan began to greet Fan Yongdou to sit down. Soon, a maid brought fragrant tea and pastries for the two of them to enjoy.
"Mr. Fan, try it. This is the best red tea in Wuyi Mountain [the robe is handed over. Only the nobles in the palace can drink this tea. I have someone to make a little bit of it, which is considered a long and long meat. Mr. Fan, please."
"Is this tribute tea?" Fan Yongdou was shocked, but he quickly calmed down, took a sip, felt pleasant, and nodded and said, "It's indeed a good tea."
Lu Haoshan smiled and picked up the teacup to drink tea, but he frowned after just taking a sip. With a "pop", he threw the teacup in his hand out.
"Sir, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?" Li Nian asked hurriedly.
"Who made this tea?" Lu Haoshan suddenly asked fiercely.
The two maids knelt down suddenly, their faces pale and said with fear: "Master, they are slaves and Xiao Hongzhuan."
Lu Haoshan cursed angrily: "I would like to use the spring water from Yulong Mountain to make tea, but how dare you forget it?"
A girl said with some fear: "Master, I actually used up the spring water I got and couldn't find it for a while. So I soaked it in ordinary water. Please punish me."
"Please punish me," another maid also cried and asked.
"Go, each get twenty boards, don't do this in the future." Lu Haoshantou said without raising his head.
So, after thanking each other, the two poor little maids turned around and went to receive the punishment.
When Fan Yongdou saw Lu Haoshan's expression unhappy, he hurriedly said, "Governor General, these are trivial matters, and they will get better slowly. There is no need to be shamed for such trivial matters."
After saying that, Lu Haoshan said to himself: "Mr. Fan laughs. Let's do it. The roast chicken here is good, fragrant and crispy. I invite you to eat the best roast chicken."
"Sir Xie." Fan Yongdou hoped to approach Lu Haoshan, so there was no reason to refuse. (To be continued...)
