Ministry of War.

As the carriage slowly stopped in front of the military department, Hu Fei and Chundie slowly walked out of the carriage.

A small official who had been ordered to guard the door for a long time accompanied Xiaolian and quickly came to the carriage and bowed respectfully to Hu Fei who had not yet got off the carriage.

"I've met Mr. Hu."

The clerk said respectfully while saluting.

Hu Fei nodded and slowly got out of the carriage.

"Master Hu, Mr. Tang has been waiting for you inside for a long time. Please come with me."

As the clerk spoke, he respectfully led the way.

Hu Fei said nothing and walked inside with Chun Die and Pei Jie.

Soon, the three of them followed the petty official to the minister's office.

Before the official could report the matter, Tang Duo, Minister of War, who had been impatient for a long time, had already walked out quickly.

"Oh, Mr. Hu."

Tang Duo walked out quickly, clasping his hands as he spoke, with an unconcealable smile on his face.

"Master Tang."

Hu Fei also showed a smile and returned the favor.

"Master Hu, please come in!"

Tang Duo made an inviting gesture and invited Hu Fei to come in.

"Master Tang, in front of you, how dare I think of myself as a master? I am just an eighth-grade Teruma, so please stop making fun of me!"

Hu Fei smiled, waved his hands and said, while taking the lead to walk inside without any politeness.

Faced with Tang Duo, who was the Minister of War, calling Master Tang one after another, Hu Fei always felt a little uncomfortable.

"The eighth rank is also a rank, and Zhaomo is also an official. In front of Mr. Hu, even if I am the Minister of the Ministry of War, I have to lower myself to an official."

Tang Duo followed Hu Fei in and said with a smile.

Hu Fei smiled helplessly and found a seat to sit down.

"Look at the tea!"

Tang Duo said something to the little official and sat next to Hu Fei.

"I wonder why Mr. Tang invited me here? Do you have any business to do with me?"

Hu Fei looked at Tang Duo and asked tentatively.

"Haha, in this capital city, Mr. Hu is the first person who dares to do this kind of business with the Ministry of War! And I'm afraid he will never come after him!"

Tang Duo smiled and pushed a document that had been placed on the table in front of Hu Fei.

"This is?"

Hu Fei glanced at the document, looked at Tang Duo hesitantly and asked.

"Young Master, you will know once you open it."

Tang Duo said with a smile.

Hu Fei hesitated for a moment, picked up the document, and then a smile quickly appeared on his face.

This is a document that clears both money and goods. As long as Hu Fei and Tang Duo sign it, even if the previous transaction is completely completed, the Ministry of War will pay as agreed.

"Although this matter is a transaction between the Ministry of War and the Young Master, it is still considered official business, so I sent someone to invite the Young Master to the Ministry of War to complete this final step."

"However, Xianguan really didn't expect that the young master could actually complete all the military ration supplies in advance and deliver all the previously agreed four-season goods to the border before the New Year. Xianguan has to admire him."

Tang Duo looked at Hu Fei and said with admiration.

Hu Fei smiled and signed the document happily.

"Sir, I haven't even paid the money to the official yet. You signed without even counting. Aren't you afraid that the official will regret it?"

Tang Duo was stunned for a moment and said jokingly.

"I believe in Mr. Tang, and I believe in Your Majesty even more. It's impossible for you to take my little money seriously, right?"

Hu Fei said with a smile.

Originally, he and Tang Duo agreed that the border military rations needed to be raised in four installments. However, since the opening of Huifeng Bank, there was so much money to spend. Now factories have been built everywhere, so it used to take four seasons to produce.

All the goods were delivered to the border garrison before the Chinese New Year.

"Master Hu's magnanimity makes my subordinates admire him!"

"The disaster relief in Changzhou and the one hundred thousand and two years' salary made me admire me even more. It is really my honor to have the honor to meet the young master!"

Tang Duo looked at Hu Fei and said seriously.

"Master Tang, thank you very much. It's just a little effort. It's a big responsibility from heaven. We are born at this time, and we should do something for the world. We should live our life in this world in vain."

Hu Fei smiled and said with a righteous look.

"Young Master Hu is truly a righteous man. I am ashamed of myself as a low-ranking official!"

Tang Duo was stunned for a moment and sighed meaningfully.

"Okay, don't just pick nice things to say. Even if you praise me to the sky, I won't lose a penny of the money you deserve."

Hu Fei waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Hahaha..."

"Young Master Hu can rest assured about this. I have already prepared the money and loaded it all into the car. I can take it with you when Mr. Hu leaves soon."

Tang Duo couldn't help laughing and said.

"Thank you, Lord Tang."

Hu Fei smiled and cupped his hands.

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Hu Fei stood up and said goodbye.

Originally, Tang Duo said that he would send someone to escort him, but Hu Fei refused.

He is no longer what he used to be. The person who dares to rob his carriage in the capital city has not yet been born, let alone the carriage of the Ministry of War.

However, when Hu Fei walked out of the gate of the Ministry of War and saw the three large cars parked at the door, he couldn't help but be a little stunned. The sight of boxes filled with silver made his mouth water.

Although he was very rich, they were all numbers. This was the first time he saw so much money in front of him, even though it was still lying in the box and not showing up.

So, for the sake of safety, Hu Fei asked Tang Duo for a few people, escorted three carriages and went straight to Huifeng Bank. He had to deposit the money in the vault quickly.

...

Ji'an Marquis Mansion.

Lu Zhongheng, who had fallen asleep due to drunkenness, suddenly woke up from his dream and sat up directly from the couch. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and then he found that his back was already soaked through.

When I turned around, I saw that it was dark and it was already late at night.

Lu Zhongheng rubbed his slightly painful forehead, slowly got down to the ground, lit the lamp, picked up the cold tea on the table, and took a few sips.

In his sleep, he remembered that he had been dreaming, but the scene when he met Hu Fei in Yinque Restaurant today always appeared in different dreams.

Hu Fei's words before leaving made him feel like they were stuck in his throat and he couldn't sleep soundly.

"Master Hou, are you awake?"

At this moment, a worried voice came from outside the door.

Maybe he saw the lights lit in Lu Zhongheng's room, and the housekeeper Zhou Yuan got dressed and came outside the door.

"come in."

Lu Zhongheng frowned and said hesitantly.

Immediately afterwards, the door opened and Zhou Yuan slowly walked into the room.

"Master Hou, are you okay?"

"The tea has gone cold. I will ask someone to boil the tea again."

Zhou Yuan asked worriedly, and then saw Lu Zhongheng holding a teapot in his hand. As he spoke, he turned around and hurriedly walked out.

"No, I'm fine! Come back!"

Lawrence Lu waved his hand and said.

Hearing Lu Zhongheng's words, Zhou Yuan stopped, turned around and returned to the room.

"Close the door!"

Lawrence Lu gestured and sat on the chair.

"Master Hou, what happened?"

Zhou Yuan closed the door, looked at Lu Zhongheng with a solemn expression, approached him, and asked hesitantly.
