Chapter 154 Mrs. Li, you don’t want anything to happen to your daughter, right?

Chapter 154: Mrs. Li, you don’t want anything to happen to your daughter, right?

"The price depends on how much you can earn."

"You can estimate the final price based on workmanship, materials, time, etc."

"I am not involved. I only need my share of the profits. The rest is what kind of group you want to sell to and whether they can afford it."

Fang Yuan said slowly.

He does not want to participate too much in the market economy.

The market should be free so that it can be more dynamic.

"How much profit does Governor Fang want?"

The foreign aristocratic family and the local aristocratic family looked at each other and said in a deep voice.

Fang Yuan's departure is also very important, it depends on how much money they have left.

If they want to be too ruthless, then they will choose carefully and will not work for Fang Yuan in vain.

"Don't worry, I only want 10% of the profit."

Fang Yuan saw their thoughts and said calmly.

The 10% profit seems very low, but in fact Fang Yuan still makes a lot of money.

For example, the cement factory, brick-burning factory, steel factory, and the necessary materials for building houses are all in Fang Yuan's hands.

If they want to build a community, they must buy these raw materials from themselves.

"Then we will discuss the pricing ourselves."

Liu Yongshou, Ye Chengmin and others looked at each other again and nodded.

10% profit is still within the acceptable range, and it is considered the lowest asking price.

"That's alright, I'll have a chat with you."

"For example, regarding pricing, before this happens, if you advertise louder and praise the houses in your community to the sky, then the holidays you sell will be more expensive."

Fang Yuan said slowly.

Start teaching them some normal buying and selling discussions.

"Fang Jishi is wise!"

Everyone glanced at each other and said flatteringly.

How could they not know about these discussions?

“Also consider asking them to pay in installments!”

"For example, the total price of a house is ten guan. They pay three guan first, and the remaining seven guan will be paid back over many years, plus interest."

"If you don't dare to take risks with this installment payment, tell them when advertising that the bank can bear the risk for them and the bank can lend them money."

Fang Yuan continued.

The emergence of banks also paves the way for community construction.

It is estimated that many people who want to buy a house do not have enough money but want to buy a house, so a bank is a good thing.

As long as they are from Liaozhou, or they have connections and guarantees in Liaozhou, the bank will not worry about them not having the money to repay.

Naturally, the price of a house cannot be as high as that of later generations, and it is impossible to borrow money from a bank for such a long period of time. Three to five years is the best, and the longest is no more than ten years.

"Payment in installments?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then their eyes lit up.

From what Fang Yuan said, this installment payment can solve many problems.

They were worried just now that the price of the house would be set too high, so that ordinary people would think it was too high and not buy it.

But with this installment payment and the bank as a guarantee, coupled with their influence in publicity, the community will make a lot of money!

"Not bad!"

"The principle is that the large amount is converted into multiple small amounts and interest, and the money is paid back in time periods, and a bank guarantees it for you."

Fang Yuan nodded.

At this moment, he felt a bit like a business godfather.

It feels quite satisfying to create a new way of trading in Datang.

"Fang Jishi is wise!"

Everyone flattered him again.

Different from the previous time, this time it really comes from the heart.

Afterwards, everyone discussed the details, regional division, price positioning, material prices, etc.

In the end, Fang Yuan stopped participating and let them discuss freely in the conference room while he went to his office.

In the next few days, the aristocratic families in the city were investigating the construction of the community.

On this day, Zhang San sent a document from the Ministry of Personnel.

"Zun Zhou, the imperial court wants to give us a Sima here."

Zhang San looked a little uncomfortable.

In addition to the governor, the chief governor and Sima are the biggest in the governor's office.

Relatively speaking, the role of Chang Shi is a little greater than that of Sima.

But suddenly one more Sima came over, which undoubtedly meant that some of the power was left.

Originally, Fang Yuan was the boss in the governor's office and had relatively few affairs, so Zhang San was almost always acting on his behalf.

Now a Sima has come, taking away half of Zhang San's power, which makes him feel uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart.

"Yang Sina...what's the origin of this person?"

Fang Yuan looked at the official documents and frowned slightly.

"The youngest son of Yang Gongren, Duke of Guan."

Zhang San looked slightly bitter and said.

The background is so big that it is impossible for him to exclude her and leave.

"Yang Gongren's youngest son?!"

"Is Yang Gongren currently living as a pastor in Yongzhou?"

Fang Yuan was a little surprised.

At the same time, I thought of Yang Shidao in Langzhou.

Yang Gongren is Yang Shidao's biological brother.

One of them interferes with the magistrate of Wuling County in Langzhou, and the other interferes with the Sima of Liaozhou. How long can they stretch their hands?

"Yes."

Zhang San sighed in his heart and felt helpless on his face.

The imperial capital Chang'an City is located in Jingzhao Prefecture, and Jingzhao Prefecture is located in Yongzhou.

Because of the special nature of the imperial capital, there is no governor in Yongzhou, and the largest official is Yongzhou Mu.

With such a huge background, what could he do to exclude Yang Sina?

"Taking office within a week... let Si Hu take charge of this matter."

Fang Yuan took another look at the official documents, nodded slightly.

This is a document sent from the Chang'an City Officials Department three days ago.

Therefore, three days have passed since Yang Sina took office.

Normally, he will take office within two or three days.

"Yes."

She opened her mouth three times, but finally left without saying anything.

Even if he was unhappy with the document issued by the officials, it was useless for him to tell Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan looked at Zhang San's leaving figure and shook his head slightly. How could he not see Zhang San's displeasure?

However, the governor's office already has a long history and a Sima. It is reasonable and reasonable for the imperial staff to transfer Sima to this position, and it is useless to have any objections.

Moreover, Fang Yuan has long wanted to have a Sima to help him with things, but there is no manpower around him and there is nothing he can do. Since the imperial court has transferred him here, it is fine, as long as he is obedient.

As for disobedience, as the governor, is it not easy for you to crush a Sima?

Soon, word began to spread that someone would take up the vacant position of Sihu in the Governor's Office.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

At night, in the backyard of Liaoshan County House, in the study of the county magistrate Su Chen, Su Chen held a candle and wrote, looking at the white paper on the desk.

Use white paper to write letters, either to the most respected elders or to people with high status, otherwise use yellow paper.

[Your Majesty, Su Chen, pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince!]

[Recently, Liaozhou has been vigorously developing, introducing ten foreign aristocratic families, driving away the branch of the Xiwen Pei family in Liaozhou, and trying to build an unknown community house...]

【......】

[Today, I heard that the post of Sima of Liaozhou has been taken up by Yang Sina, the youngest son of Yang Gongren, Duke of Guan Kingdom. Please don’t be angry, Your Highness. The Third Highness has a wrong bloodline and will not be your opponent after all!]

[February 17th of the third year of Zhenguan!]

In this way, the night passed, and the next morning I rushed to Chang'an City with a letter, and passed by Yang Sina who was on his way to Liaozhou City to take up the post of Sima of the Governor's Office.

At noon.

The state officials who guarded the gate reported that Yang Sina took office.

After a while, the gatekeeper led the person in.

"Your Majesty, Yang Sina, pays homage to the Governor!"

A handsome middle-aged man with a small belly appeared.

His hands are still holding something, which is proof of his transfer.

"Yang Sihu, welcome to be appointed Sima of Liaozhou."

Fang Yuan took the certificate and welcomed it with a smile.

Then he asked the state officials to call out Zhang San and others from the next room.

After a while, Zhang San, Qicao Canjun and other Confucian scholars came out.

"Zhang San, take Yang Sima to get familiar with the Governor's Mansion, and get to know each other well with your colleagues."

Fang Yuan smiled.

Yang Sina is just a Sima, there is no need for him to entertain the guests in person.

"Yes!"

Zhang Sanying is.

Invite Yang Sina to leave for the office next to her.

"Xie Zhouzun!"

"Thank you Zhang Changshi!"

Yang Sina saluted Fang Yuan respectfully.

Then follow Zhang San to the side.

"Yang Sima, this is Si Hu Liu Wenshi, Si Gong Wang Wenshu..."

Zhang San introduced it as he walked.

Finally, they walked into the office next to each other.

Not long after, a state official went out and brought in Yang Sina's things.

People who first come to Liaozhou City usually live in the backyard. If you want to live outside, you have to pay for it yourself.

On this day, due to the arrival of Sima from the Prefectural Governor's Office, Zhang San and others took a half-day break in the afternoon to wash their hands of Yang Sina.

Fang Yuan was not present, but reimbursed them for their expenses at the White Tiger Club.

Apply in the afternoon and it’s not time to get off work yet.

But when Fang Yuan saw that Zhang San and others had already left, he was ready to be lazy.

But just as I was about to take a sip of tea and prepare to leave, Du Miaoyan came.

"Fang Yuan, have you received a letter from Du He and the others?"

Du Miaoyan asked as soon as she saw Fang Yuan.

Her expression seemed calm, but there was worry in her eyebrows.

"No, what's wrong?"

Fang Yuan asked her to sit down and spoke slowly.

"He didn't reply to my letter, but he sent me a message."

"It is said that a huge secret was discovered during the repair of the Yellow River dykes. Some people want to embezzle the government's funds and destroy the Yellow River dykes to harm the people of several states... Did you know this a long time ago?"

Du Miaoyan sat down, looked at Fang Yuan and said.

After she received Du He's message, she was worried that something might have happened to Du He.

When he spoke nervously to Fang Yuan, he saw that Fang Yuan looked calm, and he suddenly felt a little surprised.

In an instant, Du Miaoyan thought that it was Fang Yuan who asked Du He and the others to go to the Yellow River Dam and be sent by Liao Fengmao to investigate the matter.

"All I know is what you just said."

Fang Yuan did not hide anything and nodded.

"You, how could you let Du He and the others investigate such a dangerous matter?!"

"What if something unexpected happens?"

Du Miaoyan immediately became anxious.

Those who dare to embezzle imperial funds and have the audacity to harm the people of several states are definitely not simple people.

Du He and the others are still so young and don’t have much experience. If they are asked to do such a dangerous thing, what if something goes wrong?

"The five sons of the prince are both civil and military, what accident can happen?"

"Don't worry!"

Fang Yuan shook his head and said.

When Liao Fengmao wrote the letter, he did not have the manpower to arrange it.

Du He and Qin Huaiyu just arrived, and they are undoubtedly the best candidates.

With identity, brains, and force, how can one find such a suitable candidate?

"But..."

Du Miaoyan is still worried.

Du He is his biological brother, and she is worried that something will happen.

Dare to destroy the dams of the Yellow River to divert water and harm hundreds of thousands of people in several states. That is definitely not what ordinary people dare to do.

"How about you tell Prime Minister Du."

"I didn't have any evidence before, so I didn't dare to report it to the court rashly."

"Now that Du He and the others have confirmed it, the court will definitely believe it based on their status."

Fang Yuan pondered for a moment and said.

There were several considerations why he did not inform the court before.

One is that there is no conclusive evidence, the other is that he is afraid of alerting others, and the third is that he does not want to get deeply involved.

After all, he is just a governor, and his transfer is still under the control of the officials, and he doesn't know who is behind it. rashly participating in it may attract unknown enemies.

"Du He told me not to tell anyone, saying that he already had an idea."

"The reason I didn't write a letter was because I was worried that the letter would be intercepted."

Du Miaoyan looked embarrassed and sighed.

That is, Fang Yuan asked them to deliver things and check things.

Otherwise, Du Miaoyan would not have come over to confirm the truth of the matter with Fang Yuan.

"Then you should rest assured."

"They are not children. They have their own ideas and are future princes. There is nothing to worry about."

Fang Yuan also felt relieved.

Are you still worried that they don’t know what to do?

As long as there is a way, it would be best to find out the person behind it and bring him to justice.

"That's what you said."

Du Miaoyan sighed and said.

Fang Yuan is right, they are the future princes of the country, but he is too worried about them.

"By the way, do you know Yang Sina?"

Fang Yuan suddenly thought of Yang Sina who had just taken office.

They are all from Jingzhao Prefecture, and Du Miaoyan should know them.

"I heard, what happened to Duke Guan Guo's youngest son?"

Du Miaoyan nodded and asked.

As the son of the Duke, she has no reason not to know.

"He has now been transferred to Liaozhou as a Sima."

Fang Yuan said calmly.

"What?!"

"This is not a good thing!"

Du Miaoyan was immediately surprised.

"Any questions?"

Fang Yuan asked in surprise.

"The relationship between Yang Sina and the third prince is extraordinary."

"It stands to reason that his identity cannot be transferred so far away, but he still transferred here. It is very likely that the third prince is eyeing you or Liaozhou."

Du Miaoyan frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Third Prince Li Ke?!"

Fang Yuan frowned and said.

The third prince Li Ke was also controversial in later generations.

Some people say that his bloodline is the most noble, and his abilities are worthy enough to ascend to the 95th position.

But some people say that he was destined not to sit on the throne because of his bloodline, and that he was framed despite his talent.

"Yes!"

"Although the third prince is young, his skills are not simple. Many veterans praised him highly."

"Whether he is targeting you or Liaozhou, you have to be more careful."

Du Miaoyan said solemnly.

He was worried that Fang Yuan would be involved in the dispute between princes.

Since ancient times, disputes involving princes have rarely ended well.

"Don't worry, no one in Liaozhou can check and balance me unless I use my power to appoint and remove officials."

Fang Yuan shook his head and said firmly.

They shouldn't be eyeing me, as my current reputation is not obvious yet.

Maybe he saw the development of Liaozhou, after all, the tax payment in the second year of Zhenguan made a lot of limelight.

"That's good."

"By the way, I'm going back to Chang'an City at the end of the month."

"Wanxiu has confirmed her marriage to Xiao Rui and will go back to participate."

Du Miaoyan nodded and said.

Then I remembered another thing about finding Fang Yuan today.

"Didn't Xiao Rui become a eunuch? And got married?"

Fang Yuan frowned and said.

Princess Xiangcheng’s letter seemed to have mentioned it last time.

But I didn't expect that it actually settled down.

"She must have really become a eunuch."

"But Xiao Yu and Pei Xiang joined forces, and His Majesty compromised."

"I don't know much about this matter, but I still want to get married."

Du Miaoyan blushed slightly and shook her head.

Princess Xiangcheng worked hard for so long, but in the end she still couldn't get rid of getting married to Xiao Rui.

Moreover, Xiao Rui became a eunuch, and Princess Xiangcheng became a widow after getting married. How uncomfortable is this?

"Okay, then you wish me..."

Fang Yuan sighed slightly, feeling sorry for Princess Xiangcheng.

I wanted to wish her a blessing, but I felt that this blessing was a bit weird.

Blessing someone to marry someone who doesn’t want to marry, or blessing someone to marry a eunuch?

"Pfft, your expression is so funny."

Du Miaoyan almost spit out her tea and laughed.

"I'm a little confused about her situation."

"When you go back someday, I will prepare some gifts for you to take back to her."

Fang Yuan shook his head and stopped worrying about the blessing.

"I'll tell you before I go back."

"How about you come with me to participate?"

Du Miaoyan has not determined the specific date of her return.

But suddenly, she felt that she could ask Fang Yuan to go back with her.

Take Fang Yuan back and show your mother whether she is satisfied or not.

"I won't go."

“I have to take leave to go back and forth, and it’s not good to be discovered.”

Fang Yuan shook his head and refused.

"Okay."

Du Miaoyan felt a little regretful, but she couldn't force it.

"It's still early, why don't you go shopping?"

Fang Yuan looked at the sky outside and suggested.

He didn't want to go to work anymore, and he felt bored staying in the Governor's Mansion after discussing the matter with Du Miaoyan.

"Okay."

Du Miaoyan's heart skipped a beat and she responded softly.

The two of them wandered around and ate outside, and it wasn't until evening that few people separated on the street.

To be precise, Du Miaoyan was worried that Fang Yuan was in danger and sent Fang Yuan back to Fang Mansion before they separated.

As soon as I returned to Fang Mansion, the giant came to find me.

Over the past few days, his injuries have fully recovered.

"Fang Yuan, you have to talk about that Li Danqiu."

"She broke into the nine-story star observation tower every day and broke many of my traps. The hand ladder was broken twice!"

The giant came angrily and complained.

Li Danqiu broke into the nine-story Star Observation Tower for two days and broke many mechanisms, leaving him speechless for repairs.

He saw that Li Danqiu was Fang Yuan's guest, so he didn't talk to her face to face and went to Fang Yuan to talk to her.

"Juzi, I also wanted to warn her before."

"But after thinking about it, she broke in like this to test the mechanism of the nine-story star observation tower for us, which is not a bad thing."

Fang Yuan said.

He knew that Li Danqiu broke into the nine-story star observation tower from time to time.

But thinking that it was a test for the nine-story star observation tower, I just pretended that I didn’t know.

"But many of our agencies don't need her to test!"

"And what if something happens? The mechanisms inside are very dangerous."

The giant rolled his eyes and said speechlessly.

The idea is good, but he has confidence in his own organization.

Moreover, many of the mechanisms inside are very dangerous. What if you are injured or someone loses your life?

"That's right, I'll go talk to her... No, I'll go talk to Mrs. Li."

Fang Yuan nodded, thinking it was also a problem.

Juzi nodded and urged Fang Yuan to speak now.

Fang Yuan changed direction and walked towards Madam Li's yard.

At this time, the sun has set, but it does not affect the view of the road.

Soon, Fang Yuan arrived at Mrs. Li’s family’s yard.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Fang Yuan stopped and was a little dazed.

I saw Mrs. Li wearing thin clothes and her hair was wet and stuck to her neck.

Her whole body was exuding heat, and she could vaguely see the beautiful scenery as ripe as a peach.

I guess I just took a shower, and my snow-white skin looked even more supple, as if I could squeeze out water.

"Fang, Fang the governor?"

Mrs. Li was shocked when she saw Fang Yuan.

She was momentarily panicked and subconsciously wanted to cover herself up.

But as soon as the thoughts came out, I felt that I had not revealed anything.

However, her face still turned slightly red, making her look even more charming.

Fang Yuan came to his senses, but did not shift his gaze, and said: "Mrs. Li, you don't want anything to happen to your daughter, right?"
