Fan Yao had never encountered such a shame in his life, and his emaciated body trembled. In his business experience in his life, he has encountered all kinds of difficulties, but all the difficulties are just wanting his money, and for a successful businessman, as long as it can be solved with money, it is not a big deal.

But not today, this bastard in front of him wants to snatch away his most cherished daughter, and he is going to be a concubine for a sixty-year-old bad old man. Fan Yao now felt that a handful of hay had been lit in his heart, and the spicy smoke was rising from the seven orifices, all of which smoothed the nasal congestion caused by the wind and cold.

Turn your face, turn your face, there's nothing to say to this kind of beast. But is it really okay to turn the other cheek? Since ancient times, the people have not fought with the officials, especially the Yamen of the Internal Affairs Office, which is close to the imperial power, and they cannot afford to offend it.

As the saying goes, the prefect who breaks the house and the county order that destroys the door is the county order in the eyes of the small people, and the county order is a hundred miles of marquis, and there are countless ways to kill people invisibly. As for the Internal Affairs Office, it is a direct access to the yamen in the Forbidden City, and Liu Xian Ling didn't dare to breathe when he saw Second Master Lian.

Collaborating with the enemy, bandits, tax evasion, and even sleeping at night with your head in the direction of the Forbidden City, they can give you a sin of killing your head. There are even some arrogant ones, who directly mobilize their soldiers to intercept and kill them halfway, and no one will consider Wang Fa at all.

Expecting the Manchu government to uphold justice for the life and death of a Han Chinese, and a Han businessman?

Fan Yao wanted to turn his face but didn't dare, and the cautiousness in the nature of a businessman made him dare not resist. Second Master Lian squinted at Fan Yao, he felt that he had already figured out this old thing that was not open. This kind of businessman Lian Erye has seen a lot in his life, when he forged a house deed and forced the owner of a grain and oil store in Nancheng to death. That old thing's expression was exactly the same as Fan Yao's.

Second Master Lian thought back to the old thing who was holding a small knife and wanted to fight with him, and his expression was really ridiculous when he didn't dare to pierce it. Damn, if this was when the Qing Dynasty first opened the country, you would directly run to your family's land, and you would dare to fart and destroy you directly. I will take over your Han belongings, comfort and comfort your daughters, and dare to hesitate with me.

These untouchables who aren't worth a donkey's money are damn damned. Second Master Lian gradually lost his patience, and the wrench in his hand turned faster and faster, as if he was going crazy in the next second.

"You're dreaming!" At that moment, a cold female voice came from behind the screen in the living room, and the tiger girl walked out with a cold face, "Second Master Lian, right?" I persuade you to die of this heart, and if you want me to nod and say, 'No way', it's a big deal, you carry my body into your house......"

The sudden appearance of the tiger girl frightened Fan Yi and Lian Erye, but when Lian Er saw the young and energetic little face of the tiger girl again, he actually forgot to be angry, his face was full of obscene smiles, and the corners of his mouth were even sparkling with saliva.

With a snap, Fan Ru slapped his palm on the table, he really couldn't stand Second Master Lian's pig-like face. If the tiger girl falls into the hands of such a beast, the fate will definitely be even worse than that of his mother.

"Second Master Lian, I'm sorry, our small family can't climb your door, you might as well ask for another virtuous wife and beautiful concubine......" After speaking, Fan Yao actually served tea and sent the guests, without even looking at him.

The tiger girl left, Fan Yao ignored him, this time Lian Ershu was completely stunned, he never thought that a businessman who was inferior would dare to give him such face. At that moment, he forgot about his anger, and the whole person just felt incredible.

Was it rejected, was it really rejected? Second Master Lian laughed angrily, "Hahaha, Fan Yao, are you kidding? Do you dare not listen to the decision of the head of the Fan family, do you want to betray the family? And you don't want to do the business of your Fan family, and you don't want the position of the imperial merchant anymore?"

"Hehehe, Fan Yao, I advise you to calm down, aren't the daughters born to a concubine used to protect the interests of the family? What is the difference between them and goods? and not the eldest lady from your main house......"

"Get out!" Fan Yi yelled, he really wanted to slap him hard, but the last bit of the businessman's calmness controlled his anger, "Get out...... I repeat, I can't afford to climb the threshold of your house, Second Master Lian!"

With a bang, Second Master Lian kicked down the Eight Immortals Table in front of him, and the delicate white porcelain bowl smashed with a clatter, "Okay, okay, Fan Yao, I'll send you a word, don't regret it, don't regret it......" After speaking, he turned his head and left.

Fan Yao looked at Second Master Lian who was walking away, his whole body trembled violently, and his eyes turned black. Hu Niu ran out of the back hall and hurriedly hugged her father, "Dad, don't be angry, we're not afraid of him." The Fan family is not easy to bully, if he dares to come nonsense, we will go to the capital to sue the emperor......"

Fan Yao shook his head, "Girl, things are not as simple as you say...... What did you say when you met Mr. Xiao last night? Girl, tell me the truth, I entrusted you to Mr. Xiao, are you willing?"

Hu Niu's face turned red at that time, although everyone could see her thoughts about Xiao Letian, but let her father break it, she couldn't stand it even if she was thick-skinned.

"Daddy......" Tiger Girl squirmed a rare time, "Why are you mentioning him well?" and as she was talking, a guy suddenly ran from outside, and as soon as he entered the house, he fell to his knees.

"It's not good for the shopkeeper, a group of people of unknown origin suddenly appeared around our business, and we are already surrounded...... Listening to the guy at the counter, those are all soldiers in the Xiling Guardian Army......"

With a hiss, the father and daughter gasped, "So fast? Lian Er, is this going to do it? It's just lawless, is Yi County his family's own land?"

Around the current Guangde, all the strong men in teahouses, hotels and even those who sell wontons on the street have sat down to monitor them, and they are all Lian Erye's subordinates. When the second master didn't think of a way to deal with it, their only purpose was to watch Fan Yao and Hu Niu and prevent the father and daughter from running away.

"Girl, how did Mr. Xiao tell him last night......?

Hu Niu has never seen her father so impatient, and in her impression, her father is like a mountain, as long as he is around, he can block a qiē danger. But looking at my father today, he has suddenly aged a lot.

He ...... He's a weak, white-faced scholar, what can he do? What's the use of looking for him?"

"Oh, my stupid girl, who else can we rely on now besides Mr. Xiao? Your uncle has already sold us, although the Liu County Commander in Yixian County has accepted our gifts, it is impossible to expect him to go against that bastard of Lian Er. This is not Beijing City, our friends and friends are not here......"

"Mr. Xiao is not an ordinary person, he can write such a shocking book, it is all the reincarnation of the stars in the sky, if he has no choice, then let's accept our fate......"

"What? write a book...... Hu Niu didn't know about it at all, but at the urging of her father, she finally blushed and said, "When Brother Xiao and I were separated last night, he once explained that no matter what danger he encountered, he must not leave the Guangde business without authorization, and he will find a way to save our ......."

Fan Yao thought carefully for a while, and suddenly said to his henchman who was kneeling on the ground, "Go, call all the ten shotgunners trained by Mr. Xiao in the caravan, and say...... You just secretly told them that Mr. Xiao had an order for them......"

At the last moment, Fan Yao finally made up his mind that his family was unreliable, the officials of the Manchu Qing Dynasty were unreliable, and even a million-dollar net worth was unreliable. As for whether Xiao Letian is reliable or not, the old shopkeeper doesn't dare to pack tickets now, but does he still have a choice? Looking at the red-faced girl, can he make any other choice?

At this time, Xiao Lotian was holding a big bowl of beef noodles and pulling it to his mouth in a daze, on the steaming beef soup, there were large pieces of beef, the fragrance of coriander and garlic sprouts went straight to his nose, and Xiao Letian, who was hungry all night, ate like a pig.

This is the house of Qing Sanye in Yixian County, although Qing Sanye's house fell in the middle of the road, but the hundred-legged insect died but did not stiffen, the dignified inlaid yellow flag Fucha family branch, and now it is also regarded as the nobles in the eight flags, even the second master of Lian saw Fuqing to be polite, don't look at him as the boss of Qing Sanye, but he really dare not be disrespectful.

The reason is very simple, the family of Empress Qianlong, the descendants of Fu Heng and Fukangan, this is a proper big family among the banner people, and even the descendants of Qing Sanye, who are sideline, have taken the fame of Wupinyun Cavalry Captain, although it is only an honor, but it also proves the preciousness of his identity.

Now he looked at Xiao Letian, who was indecent, and then looked at the intriguing draft, and suddenly felt that this was not something that Xiao Lotian could write. In his imagination, the great Confucians who can start a sect are all three wisps of long hair and fairy bones, and they can't be equated with Xiao Letian, a guy with thieves and rat eyes!

"I said can you eat slowly, Sven ......"

"Pull it down, you, I ran for my life all night and finally made people stunned, I don't eat some hot supplements, that's a lot of gratitude......"

Qing Sanye shook his head, he hesitated for a moment, and finally asked the question in his heart: "Brother Xiao, you said that you can take in such a bandit, is it true or false?"

"I know you have a lot of words in your stomach, and if I can't give you a satisfactory answer, I'm afraid you won't let me out. Xiao Lotian wiped his mouth and tapped the draft with his hand.

"Third Master Qing, brother, I'll be honest with you. You say that I, a person who has never read the Four Books and the Five Classics and grew up in the realm of foreign devils, may be an official of the Qing Dynasty?"

"Yes, I can't even get into the imperial examination, can I still be an official? But what can I do if I am not an official in the Qing Dynasty? Do business or buy a house and buy land? Don't you like to hear it, in the Qing Dynasty, there were merchants and small landlords, so wouldn't it be bullied by the government?"

Fuqing's face was red at that time, he was a bit idealistic, and he belonged to the promising youth of the Eight Banners. But he is not a fool, how do the Eight Banners masters in Beijing get around day by day? How did people like Second Master Lian make a fortune? And how did Liuxian Ling corrupt them? He can see it all.

Xiao Letian smiled slightly, "I can't be an official, and the local owner who is doing business will be bullied, it seems that only Mingqingliu is the most suitable for me...... Therefore, I want to write a book, I want to be the ancestor of Western studies in the Qing Dynasty, and I want everyone who is interested in Western studies to call me sir......"

"Now think about it, is it a future to be a copycat bandit, or is it a future to be such a great master of Western studies? Look at my little arms and legs, and you still want to eat the food on the knife's edge? Don't tease me......

Xiao Letian's words made Fu Qing choke and roll his eyes, he was very unaccustomed to this aggressive negotiation tone, but he couldn't say a word of rebuttal, and if he wanted to play tricks with Xiao Letian, a master of business negotiations, he really had to go back to practice again.
