Chapter 429 The United Front is formed

As relatives who have not yet had five sermons, Xie Lao'an and Wang Daoman do not have much contact on weekdays. They are far from living together in the same village like the Wang clans in Songming Mountain. They can only get up to the last time they meet. Their last meeting even dates back to Wang Daoman, who failed the Beijing exam last year, came to Yangzhou on his way back, and visited relatives and friends everywhere. The five-bedroom clan members gathered together for a few years and made a lot of trouble. So, today they happened to meet again in front of the inn, and both of them were a little sighing. Of course, for them, what they cared more about was the purpose of Wang Fulin's visit to Yangzhou this time.

However, after entering the house, when Xie Lao'an asked another question: "Fulin, that girl Zhu seems to be quite familiar with you, but her surname does not look like Songmingshan. What's going on?"

Wang Fulin had long expected that since Xiaobei had provoked the old lady and ran into him and Wang Daoman, it would be strange if he didn't ask about it. So he pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled and said, "She is my fiancée, but she has just passed the marriage letter and has not yet made up her mind."

As soon as these words were said, let alone Xie Lao'an was scared, even Wang Daoman was shocked. They only heard Wang Fulin say lightly: "She is the second daughter of Ye County Zun. Oh, Ye County Zun is now Huining Dao, and it is not an exaggeration to call Ye Observation. This time I came to Yangzhou, but it was not a special trip. There was a small accident in She County before. Danyang Shao Xia asked me to visit Danyang. Ye County Zun and his wife were worried and sent someone to follow him. Xiaobei took his mother Yan to personally invite Mr. Lu of Xinchang to come forward, and then he got me out for Ping'an. Since it was just a river, I would like to go to Yangzhou to take a look."

In just a few words, there was too much information, and Xie Lao'an and Wang Daoman couldn't help but look at each other. Even though Xie Lao'an felt that Xiaobei's move was too bold, his parents didn't say anything. Why did she talk too much as an outsider? Besides, Wang Fulin obviously didn't want to say the twists and turns involved the great Danyang Shao Hero. Even though she had thousands of questions, she finally decided to put her heart in her heart.

"Because it was temporarily released, I didn't bring my uncle's famous post, and Mr. Xu from Doushan Street also left the house. So before, I went to Uncle Jiu's mansion. Since the boy in front of the door regarded me as a slaughter of Qiufeng, I had to make the mistake just because I was wrong. Please forgive me."

Wang Daoman knew that Wang Fulin's words were not true, but his family was already in a downturn. After listening to Wang Daoguan's tone before, Wang Fulin reversed the decline of his family business after he had such an unreliable father. Now he is booming, and the one who is about to marry an official daughter, what else can he say? The reason why he came back after seeing Wang Fulin was hinted to him was that Wang Daomun had complaints about the business policy of the Wang family in Yangzhou salt industry. Now that Wang Fulin can explain some things, this is already open and honest.

Wang Fulin bowed to Mr. Xie and said, "I originally planned to visit the Sixth Old Lady recently. I was unexpectedly killed by Xiaobei and brought you back, but it was also a surprise. In fact, before I visited Uncle Jiu today, I went to Cheng Mansion in the morning. Mr. Cheng and I were friends with Mr. Cheng in Huangjiawu. Thanks to Uncle Cheng's love, I also had great help. This time I was visiting him, but Mr. Cheng also rushed to Yangzhou for help because of my affairs, and met him by chance. Because of this, Uncle Jiu, who I visited in the afternoon, was too late to calculate the time, so I planned to meet again tomorrow."

Although Wang Daoguan once promoted Wang Fulin, he said that he was very popular with the old lady of the Xu family on Doushan Street and had a good relationship with Mr. Cheng of Huangjiawu. But it was unreasonable to say that Wang Fulin personally said that Mr. Cheng met with him. The meaning of the Cheng family was very different. After all, Mr. Cheng is now a salt recommended by the salt merchants in Huizhou. He has a very high prestige, so how can anyone see it?

Xie Lao'an pondered for a moment, and finally asked, "His Master Cheng mentioned the Fourth Master?"

The so-called fourth master is Wang Daomin. Xie Lao'an called Wang Daomandu, but Wang Daomin was called the fourth master Wang Daomin. The relatives and distant judgement were made. Wang Daomin also wanted to know the issue mentioned by Xie Lao'an. Under their four bright eyes, Wang Fulin smiled and spread his hands.

"Last year, the 200,000-yuan induced Yu Yan was as big as a matter of being so big as a matter of being so big as a matter of being so big as a matter of being so big as a matter of being so big as a matter of being so big as a matter of being so big as a matter of negotiations on Yu Yan, can Uncle Cheng not say it?"

Seeing that Wang Daoman showed such an expression, and Xie Laoan sneered contemptuously, Wang Fulin stood up.

"When my father paid 7,000 taels before, the Wang family of Songmingshan took turns to operate the Yangzhou salt industry. If you have any questions, everyone will discuss it. But now, the fourth master is alone. When it comes to dividends every year, it is said that it is as much as possible. No one can argue with others. My father voluntarily gave up this dividend at that time because the deficit was too large, so it was not my business. But in the long run, it was originally a seven-bedroom business, so it was probably a family. And now when it comes to the salt merchants in Huizhou in Yangzhou, they must be called Cheng Xu. Next is nothing more than Bao Huang, and then the Wu family in Xixinan. As for the Wang family in Songmingshan, they have fallen to some unknown place."

This is already a very clear attitude. Although Xie Lao'an and Wang Daoman are both elders, Xie Lao'an's son has no talent in studying and cannot get involved in the salt industry. The grandsons now have two children, but they have not yet passed the most important Dao Trial level. As for Wang Daoman's failure to study, he was excluded from the family's salt industry and has been squeezed to such an extent by his wife. No matter what changes the Wang family in Songmingshan's operation in Huaiyang Salt Industry, it will not be worse for them.

Therefore, Wang Daoman immediately made a promise: "If this continues, all the family business of our ancestors will be defeated. I naturally hope to make some changes."

"That's right." Although Xie Lao'an was a woman, he also had courage at the critical moment. "What's more, as a Xin'an native, he was standing with other business gangs in Yu Yan's affairs. If Wang Daomin did whatever he wanted, the Wang family in Songmingshan would sooner or later become a laughing stock for others! I went to the second and third rooms to say that there would be no chance of leaking the news, but I have one condition, that is, after pulling Wang Daomin off the horse, I would let Jiulang learn with Master Cheng for a good study. Now among the five children in Yangzhou, to be honest, he is the one who has the real talent in business!"

Xie Lao'an suddenly made a condition. Wang Fulin initially thought he was trying to get benefits for her own children and grandchildren. But at the end, he saw Wang Daoman's eyes flushed slightly, and he was extremely moved. He couldn't help but sigh that the old lady was really accurate in her view and self-aware. He nodded without thinking and said, "I must tell Uncle Cheng personally about this matter. Uncle Cheng loves to support the backwards, and he will definitely agree."

He was already suppressed by the cruel reality, but suddenly encountered such a turning point. Wang Daoman felt that his throat was choked and he didn't know what to say. He subconsciously left his seat and went straight forward and kowtowed to Xie Lao'an. When he wanted to say anything thankful, he was helped up by Xie Lao'an.

"No need to thank me. If you can help you up, the Wang family will prosper for decades in Yangzhou. If you can't, you can only choose others. I think you want only an opportunity."

Wang Fulin was very impressed when he heard this. He nodded immediately and said, "The Sixth Old Lady is right. Uncle Jiu doesn't have to thank this and that. Not to mention the horoscope yet, you still have to stand up first. However, when I heard what my aunt said in your house before, I thought of one thing. Even if everyone is together except the Fourth Room, the Fourth Master has been operating for many years. If you want to transfer property and corresponding documents, it may be caught off guard. Therefore, if Uncle Jiu can do it, please bear the humiliation and temporarily go to the Fourth Master to say a few soft words and ask for something to do. At the critical moment, you have to rely on you to stabilize some shopkeepers."

This is not an easy task. With Wang Daoman's character, even if he pretends to bow his head, it is a great test. However, after hesitating and struggling for a while, Wang Daoman finally focused and said: "Okay, I will try my best. If I can't even pass this level, what's the future?"

"That's right." Xie Lao'an couldn't help but smile, but glanced at Wang Fulin again, "If this matter is done, Fulin, are you going to stay in Yangzhou?"

"How is that possible? I know nothing about salt industry management, so I won't be ugly. After doing this, I should go back to Huizhou. But I salivated and begged for something. My father was talking big at the beginning, but now I am naturally shameless to take the dividends over the years. But five or ten years later, I think I have already gotten married and had children. The expenses are high. Please don't forget my share."

Wang Fulin made it clear that he would not interfere in the salt industry, but he requested in advance that the dividends to the third house Wang Daoyun would be restored in the future. Such conditions were reasonable, so Xie Lao'an and Wang Daoman naturally had no objection. When everyone discussed the specific plans and details, it was already dark when they went out. Although Xie Lao'an did not see Xiaobei, although he felt a little regretful, the most important thing at this time was how to contact the remaining two houses and make complete preparations in the next period of time.

Fortunately, Wang Fulin did not intend to immediately pull Wang Daomin off the horse while discussing Yu Yan's matter, otherwise he would have been too hasty and would have revealed flaws.

Besides, looking at Xiaobei and Wang Fulin's familiarity, I think it will be happy after getting married.

After seeing two groups of people away in person, Wang Fulin breathed a sigh of relief. When he found out that Lu Guangwu had not come back, he knocked on Xiaobei's door directly. Seeing Yan's mother opening the door gestured to the inner room, he crossed the threshold and went in, and then coughed hard. Sure enough, the next moment, an annoying voice came from inside: "Mom, why did you put him in!"

"Why, why dare not act but dare not act?" Wang Fulin deliberately delayed his voice. When the angry little girl appeared in front of him, he said with a smile, "I'll thank you today's great hero and ask her to go out to taste the Huaiyang famous spot in the evening. Since someone is not happy, then forget it!"

Xiaobei unexpectedly heard the word "A great hero" and ignored the invitation afterwards. He was surprised and happy: "Have you done the negotiation?"

"That's right, I don't look at wherever I go, but the disaster will be caused by the storm." Wang Fulin shrugged and then reminded, "Today, you are accustomed to react quickly, otherwise you will be overselling the show. Next time you want to help, give me a squeak."

"Squeak..." Xiaobei made a face. Seeing Wang Fulin's shocked look, she smiled and said, "Go out and wait, I'll change my clothes! I'll have to empty your purse tonight!"

"Wait, wait." Wang Fulin turned around and went out, and said leisurely when he arrived at the door, "It's just that my purse was empty, and I'm now a penniless pauper. I'm just asking you to go, but I'm just a mobile purse."
