Chapter 111: The aristocratic family’s carnival, share the cake in advance
Fang Yuan left.
Many people watched Fang Yuan leave.
Some people even watched Fang Yuan’s motorcade leave the Liaozhou area with their own eyes.
"Okay!"
"Finally everyone is gone!"
Someone shouted to celebrate Fang Yuan's departure.
In the Wang family's residence in Liaoshan, Pei Yinghua, Xue Wenbo, Liu Yongshou and others were sitting together.
Most of the aristocratic families in Liaozhou City have arrived, and they seem to be having a carnival feast to celebrate Fang Yuan's departure.
"I invite the three elders and you all to come here to ask everyone to recommend my son Wang Chengzhe to become the governor of Liaozhou."
Wang Zhicheng said slowly.
He is the host of this meeting.
But he did not initiate this meeting alone.
Although the Wang family's status in Liaozhou is not low, they are not yet able to summon so many aristocratic families.
"It is definitely better for me to be the governor than Fang Yuan to be the governor."
"But now Fang Yuan is still sitting in that position, how can we recommend it?"
Someone said loudly.
I don’t understand what Wang Zhicheng means.
Many people are like this and don’t know why.
But there are also three tribesmen in Hedong who knew the situation in advance and are sitting calmly.
"This is not something you should worry about."
"As long as you remember to jointly recommend my son to be the governor of Liaozhou, the Wang family will be grateful to you."
Wang Zhicheng chuckled.
I don’t intend to tell so many people how to operate.
Their existence is to recommend and get corresponding rewards, nothing more.
"If the royal family leader is sure of victory, we will naturally support him."
"That's right, Liaozhou still needs to be in the hands of our Liaozhou family."
"That's right, a foreign governor, a young guy, is not qualified to lead us."
All the major aristocratic families were filled with indignation.
Some of them made money through Chengbei Commercial Street.
But also because of the arrival of Ji Rufeng and other commercial firms, they now make money from standing to squatting. In time, they may have to kneel to make money.
Fang Yuan almost always considers the interests of the people and does not have a good policy towards them at all. The Liaozhou family has some opinions on Fang Yuan.
"Okay, then thank you all in advance!"
"Chengzhe, let me entertain you all for my father!"
Wang Zhicheng smiled proudly.
Then he called Wang Chengzhe over to introduce him to everyone.
Next, Wang Chengzhe will discuss interests with them.
If you want to be recognized by everyone, you will naturally have to pay relative benefits.
There is no free lunch in the world, even aristocratic families have to pay benefits to get what they want.
"Will the royal family chief stay?"
Some aristocratic families have opinions.
Everyone understands that it is time to divide the cake.
But the master is not here, leaving his son behind, somewhat looking down on others.
Although Wang Chengzhe is now the county magistrate, who on the scene has not dealt with the county magistrate?
Some aristocratic families even have several people serving as county magistrates.
"Sorry, I have other things to discuss with a few elders."
Wang Zhicheng apologized.
After the words fell, the three tribes of Hedong stood up one after another.
Pei Yinghua, Xue Wenbo, and Liu Yongshou stood up one after another.
When everyone saw this, those who had opinions expressed that they had no objections.
The status of the Hedong three ethnic groups in Liaozhou is not the slightest bit higher than theirs.
Therefore, seeing that Wang Zhicheng was chatting privately with the three tribes in Hedong, he did not dare to express his opinion.
"Please, three elders!"
Wang Zhicheng chuckled.
Pei Yinghua and the other two nodded and walked towards the inner hall.
Soon, several people came to a relatively small secret room.
There is a saying that the smaller the number of people in a meeting, the more important it is.
Although there are many aristocratic families coming this time, the ones who can really make the decision are the three tribes of Hedong and the Wang family of Liaoshan.
"Thank you to the three elders for your support."
Wang Zhicheng invited the three of them to sit down with a bit of flattery.
"The royal family leader is also quite treacherous."
"I thought you were siding with Fang Yuan."
Pei Yinghua chuckled.
He looked up and down at Wang Zhicheng furiously.
He knew that the Wang family in Liaoshan asked Wang Gui to come forward to stop Pei Ji.
Liaoshan County and Yushe County in Liaozhou are currently controlled by the Wang family.
Under such circumstances, he thought that Wang Zhicheng had completely sided with Fang Yuan.
If Wang Zhicheng hadn't personally gone to Xiwen Pei's residence to lobby him, he wouldn't have come.
"Pei Gong misunderstood, it was a last resort."
Wang Zhicheng said with a smile.
He doesn't mind being called cunning.
The three here are all human beings, no one will laugh at him.
But if it was where he was just now, Wang Zhicheng would be very concerned about it.
"You literati are so hypocritical."
Xue Wenbo said hummingly from the side.
He was also personally invited by Wang Zhicheng.
Similarly, he also felt that Wang Zhicheng was on Fang Yuan's side.
But after hearing the hypocritical words from Wang Zhicheng, he realized that it was not true.
"What did you say?"
"You warriors are the most clueless!"
After Wang Zhicheng finished speaking, Liu Yongshou was very dissatisfied.
Among the three tribes in Hedong, the Liu family in Jie County has the deepest cultural heritage. They are known as literati and elegant people, and they have countless romantic affairs.
When Xue Wenbo said that the literati were hypocritical, he undoubtedly meant that the Liu family in Jie County was hypocritical, and that he, Liu Yongshou, was hypocritical.
"You have no brains. Your whole family has no brains."
Xue Wenbo snorted coldly.
Scholars and warriors have always looked down upon each other.
Before the rise of the Xue family in Fenyin, the Liu family in Jie County had the greatest resistance.
In the end, there was no way around it, but the Fenyin Xue family still rose up and became a new prominent family in Hedong. Eventually, they were on an equal footing with their two families, and were honored as the Three Hedong Clan.
But in fact, the two people have a lot of private grudges, and neither one can tolerate the other, but they also have a tacit understanding with each other, and they do not infringe on each other's interests, and they live in peace and harmony.
"Your mother is a maid!"
Liu Yongshou immediately turned against him and started cursing people.
"Do you believe I can kill you with one punch?"
Xue Wenbo raised his fist as big as a casserole and shouted.
"Calm down, calm down, you two calm down."
Wang Zhicheng quickly reconciled the situation.
"Okay, okay, let's talk about business first."
Pei Yinghua also persuaded.
The two stopped arguing.
"Is Mr. Pei ready?"
Wang Zhicheng looked at Pei Yinghua and asked.
The most critical decision this time lies with Pei Yinghua.
As long as Pei Yinghua succeeds, then Fang Yuan will not be able to become the governor of Liaozhou.
Pei Yinghua has arranged back-up staff in each of Fang Yuan's major factories, which can be used for poisoning.
Nowadays, there are more than 3,000 people working in major factories in Liaozhou. Poisoning at this time is very scary.
There are too many people involved, Fang Yuan must be seriously implicated, and with their help, Fang Yuan is doomed.
Then, with the help of various aristocratic families, Wang Chengzhe was appointed as the governor of Liaozhou.
"I'm always ready here."
"It's just that it's better to talk about what I can get afterwards."
Pei Yinghua said solemnly.
Not long ago, Wang Zhicheng came to him and promised him many benefits.
But private things don’t count. With his status, he can definitely put it on the table.
"The cement factory, the coal mine factory, the Fang Mansion, and the White Tiger Club all belong to Mr. Pei."
Wang Zhicheng said in a deep voice.
Fang Yuan’s best things all belong to Pei Yinghua.
"I still want a tea shop!"
Pei Yinghua pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice.
"Mr. Pei, this is from the Royal Trading Company."
Wang Zhicheng reminded him sarcastically.
"I know."
Pei Yinghua nodded.
"I can't make the decision on this."
"If Mr. Pei can take it, I won't interfere."
Wang Zhicheng pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice.
The tea shop belongs to the Royal Trading Company, and the Wang family has no intention of touching it.
If Pei Yinghua wants it, then Pei Yinghua can take it for himself.
"Do you two old friends have any objections?"
Pei Yinghua looked at Xue Wenbo and Liu Yongshou.
He didn't want to get involved, but he was given too much.
In addition to these belonging to Fang Yuan, there are also many gifts from the Wang family.
He just gave so much that he no longer wanted to keep the backup he originally wanted to keep.
After all, with Fang Yuan's rise, he was also worried about whether he could suppress Fang Yuan in the future.
"I am not involved and have no opinion."
"But the royal family chief should not forget what the Fenyin Xue family should have."
Xue Wenbo hummed.
Different from the previous times, this time Fenyin Xue did not take action.
However, some of the benefits obtained from these governors must be given to the Fenyin Xue family.
"This is natural."
Wang Zhicheng said with a smile.
The Fenyin Xue family is so overbearing.
Their culture is not good, but their fists are very strong.
If you reason with him, he will talk to you with fists.
In Hedong, the court's laws are not enough, and the fists speak for themselves.
"Ms. Liu didn't contribute anything this time, so just give me whatever you want."
Liu Yongshou waved his hands.
He and Xue Wenbo are mainly here to serve as foils today.
Just tell other aristocratic families that when they come, you will come too.
Otherwise, how could Wang Zhicheng summon so many aristocratic families to come?
Therefore, even if the Liu family in Jie County did not take action, Wang Zhicheng would not dare to lose a single point from them.
"How about the ceramics factory and the weaving workshop being combined into two places?"
Wang Zhicheng said with a little heartache.
He doesn't feel sad to give Pei Yinghua so much.
Because he is the only one who can trip up Fang Yuan.
But both families took away most of it without any contribution, which made him feel heartbroken.
There are also many aristocratic families outside who also get some good things to go out.
Wang Zhicheng is very doubtful whether the Wang family has any other benefits in this plan besides the position of governor.
"Then so be it."
Xue Wenbo and Liu Yongshou nodded.
It’s fun to get benefits even if you don’t put in any effort, so they feel happy too.
"Then when will we take action?"
Wang Zhicheng looked at Pei Yinghua and said.
"Is Fang Yuan sure to leave Liaozhou?"
Pei Yinghua said cautiously.
Naturally, you have to be cautious when dealing with Fang Yuan.
He was careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years, and he didn't want to get stuck in the mud because of Wang Zhicheng.
"The people I sent saw with their own eyes his convoy leaving Liaozhou and heading towards Langzhou."
Wang Zhicheng said in a deep voice.
He personally sent people to watch Fang Yuan leave.
"Didn't you see me?"
Pei Yinghua frowned slightly.
He was a little worried when he didn't see him.
After all, I have not escaped the benefits of fighting Fang Yuan for so long.
"How can he see himself in the carriage?"
Wang Zhicheng said sarcastically.
I can't help but feel that Pei Yinghua is too cautious.
Being overly cautious means being timid and afraid of Fang Yuan.
Haha, the head of the three tribes in Hedong is actually not like that?
When my son becomes the governor of Liaozhou, Liaozhou will slowly be in my hands.
At that time, the Wang family in Liaozhou will be the largest first, and then the so-called Hedong three clans will be included.
"It's me, Meng Lang."
"Let's start tomorrow at noon."
"It just so happens that they have a holiday after lunch."
Pei Yinghua pondered for a moment and made a decision.
News has spread from various factories that they will have annual holidays at noon tomorrow.
At that time, there will be an extra meal at noon, and after the workers have finished eating, they will officially take a holiday and go home to celebrate the New Year.
But you can voluntarily work on duty. Those who are on duty will get double their wages. I heard that half of them have signed up to work overtime.
"I'm a bit pressed for time, but it doesn't matter, then tomorrow at noon!"
Wang Zhicheng said in a deep voice.
"I'll have someone contact you later."
"Remember, this matter has nothing to do with me."
Pei Yinghua's face darkened and he said seriously.
"Pei Gong is still as cautious as ever."
Wang Zhicheng chuckled.
In addition to the Xue family in Fenyin who has a lintel branch, I heard that the Pei family also has one.
Fang Yuan arrested a large number of people earlier, but none of them affected Pei Yinghua. It was because of the Meizhi clan members.
When Pei Yinghua did bad things, he always did it through the Meizhi tribe, leaving no evidence and ultimately unable to correct him.
"It's better to be careful."
Pei Yinghua chuckled.
It’s okay to be cautious and be laughed at, just feel at ease.
"That's what Mr. Pei said."
Wang Zhicheng praised.
But I don’t think so in my heart.
I even look down on Pei Yinghua.
Even at this age, you are still so cautious.
This is the kind of person who says that being too old to die is a thief.
Pei Yinghua smiled and said nothing and accepted Wang Zhicheng's praise frankly.
"Mr. Xue, can you lend me some manpower?"
"Although Fang Yuan has left, there are still more than a hundred state officials on duty."
Wang Zhicheng looked at Xue Wenbo and said.
He has already learned the news that Fang Yuan implements a triple duty system.
Anyone willing to stay on duty will receive three times their monthly salary.
Therefore, there are more than 100 state officials on duty this year, which is a lot of people.
"No, the Xue family won't interfere this time."
"Also, please remember, the head of the royal family, not to hurt the Xue Bowu siblings."
Xue Wenbo shook his head and said.
Because he wanted to take back Xue Bowu, he decided not to take action.
Xue Bowu's performance that day was so shocking that he could not forget it for a long time.
But that's just his own idea. He still has to inform the clan and wait until the senior clan leaders make a real decision.
"Okay then."
Wang Zhicheng does not force himself.
He also has clan soldiers and manpower.
It's just not as powerful as the Xue family's.
Since the Xue family doesn’t have anyone, then I’ll invite someone from Bingzhou.
The Wang family in Jinyang, Bingzhou, is much stronger than the Wang family in Liaoshan, and there are more soldiers than here.
"Then let's do this for now, and wish the royal family a successful start."
Liu Yongshou was the first to stand up.
He still has very important things waiting for him to deal with.
"Okay, thank you Mr. Liu."
Wang Zhicheng stood up quickly to see him off.
"The old man is gone too."
Xue Wenbo also chose to leave.
"I would like to ask, how should Fang Yuan deal with it?"
Pei Yinghua did not leave immediately and asked.
"We have invited the masters on the killer list to ambush you on the road."
Wang Zhicheng pondered for a moment and said.
In this plan, Fang Yuan is the most important, how could he miss Fang Yuan.
"What a pity for such a talented person."
Pei Yinghua sighed.
Even now, he still recognizes Fang Yuan very much.
It's just a pity that it can't be used for oneself, and it will eventually end up in a damaged place.
With that said, Pei Yinghua stood up and left.
Wang Zhicheng sent us off and returned to where we were just now.
Other aristocratic families are still there, talking about the division of interests in Liaozhou.
Wang Zhicheng was polite to everyone and then left. He still had to make arrangements.
After tomorrow, Liaozhou will belong to their Wang family.
