there.""Why don't you let the third one go"The old man was so angry at his words that he wanted to die, “Let the third child go up the mountain and you chop wood and buy wood!”Zong Pingkang scoffed, "...She also wanted to be tactful, but Pan Zhi'an didn't give her that chance.
He had guessed she would come and stationed people at the door to await her. He certainly knew the purpose of her return.
What's the use of being tactful
Pan Zhi'an asked, "How much do you want"
Since he promised Fang Jinshu to support her in establishing a Chamber of Commerce, he naturally wouldn't ignore it.
Moreover, the establishment of the chamber of commerce also benefits the people of Luoshui City. This money is not spent in vain.
He could still figure out a way to get three or five thousand taels.
"At least thirty to fifty thousand taels, right" Fang Jinyu said lightly.
Pan Zhi'an waved his hand, looking at her with surprise, "How much"
This was Fang Jinshi's first time seeing such a colorful array of expressions on the County Magistrate's face.
"Too much, no!" Pan Zhi'an said angrily.
This Fang Jinshi is really bold to open his mouth, 30 to 50 thousand taels Does he think the government is running a silver bank
Fang Jinshu was slightly disappointed, "The county government couldn't even come up with three or five thousand taels"
"Do you think thirty-five thousand taels is the same as thirty-five taels Are you planning to find a new location and build a mansion as the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce"
Pan Zhi-an was eating, and was surprised by the deliciousness of the food in his hands.
"What is this Where did you buy it"
Fang Jinshu was taken aback. "This wasn't bought on the roadside, Lord Pan must be very thin. He must have worked very hard usually."
"This was made specially by the common woman for the adults."
Pan Zhian looked surprised, "You made this yourself"
Fāng Jǐnxiù nodded. “What’s the problem”
Pan Zhi'an quietly took another bite. It had been many years since anyone had cared for him this attentively.
Fang Jinshu frowned. If Pan Zhi'an didn't have money here, she would have to go to the fat old man.
"Alright then, magistrate, please eat slowly. I won't disturb you."
Fang Jinxiu was just about to leave when Pan Zhian put down his chopsticks.
"Hold on."
She turned around, “Is there anything else you need, sir”
Thirty thousand taels, it couldn't be gathered together in a short time. The government also didn't have that much silver to support the Chamber of Commerce.
"This official needs three days."
Fang Jinshu's heart skipped a beat, and she turned back on her heels.
"Alright, three days."
She wouldn't dare tell Pan Zhian that she was taking advantage of him. The silver was actually only 10,000 taels used at the Chamber of Commerce, and the remaining 20,000 taels were hers to buy building materials for the mountain villa.
Seeing her radiant smile, Pan Zhi'an originally wanted to sternly advise her, asking her to be careful with the silver.
He swallowed the words back down and quietly finished the last bite of rice noodle rolls, then picked up a meat-stuffed bun to eat.
While eating, she opened the soup bowl and occasionally took a sip of the delicious pork bone soup. It has to be said that Fang Jinshiu's cooking skills are quite good.
After returning, Fang Jinxiu found Li Muhai and asked about the progress of purchasing building materials. Li Muhai said:
"The materials we need are all available, but they won't let us pay on credit. We have to pay the full amount upfront."
"Master, have you found a way to get some silver"
Fang Jinxiu nodded. "I've established a chamber of commerce in Luoshui City. Tomorrow, you bring all these merchants over, no matter what methods you use, get them to come."
Li Muhai nodded.
The next morning, as soon as Zhao Xingzhou got out of bed, he heard a servant come to report.
"Young Master Jiu, Madam Zong has been looking for you. She's waited for quite a while."
Zhao Xingzhou was taken aback and hurriedly adjusted his clothes and appearance, "Why didn't you say so earlier How long has she been waiting"
"Are you impatient"
The maidservant replied truthfully, "It's been almost half an hour."
Zhao Xingzhou turned his head angrily and shouted at the servant, "Damn it! She's here, why didn't you call me"
Oh no, I made Fang Jinshi wait for so long. She won't be mad, will she
“But, young master, didn't you say that even if the sky fell down, I shouldn't wake you when you're sleeping”
There was a clueless servant who woke up the Ninth Young Master while he was sleeping and got beaten half to death.
Who dares to call him.
Zhao Xingzhou tidied up his clothes and hurried to meet Fang Jinshi.
What she didn't expect was that this time, Fang Jinshu wasn't alone. She had also brought many merchants from the city.
As soon as Zhao Xingzhou appeared, Fang Jinshi stood up to lead the way.
"Chairman Zhao, you've finally arrived."
She pulled him aside and whispered in his ear.
"The time has come to prove your abilities. These are the first batch of merchants who need the Chamber of Commerce's support. If you can't even handle them, then you should step down as President and let someone else take over."
"I think Mr. Wang, the eldest son of the Wang family, is a good candidate, and Young Master Wang is also very ambitious."
"He would surely be happy to help me manage the affairs of the chamber of commerce."
Zhao Xingzhou knew it was a ploy to provoke him, but he still got angry.
"Just wait and see."tiny bit, it's an amount you won't be able to afford for the rest of your life."Although others didn't speak, their eyes conveyed the same sentiment."My lady, this jade Guanyin is quite valuable. You...
