Fish swimming around the world

"Jiang Fan has met Sister Pei." Seeing the beautiful woman in brocade clothes, the young man said with a slight smile.

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes had been waiting at the stairs for a long time. It was not until the young man came up that she breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed Jiang Fan and said, "Hey! Xiaolang, you are here. Why did it take so long?"

Jiang Fan was not restrained, and followed the beautiful woman in brocade to sit down at the table and said, "There are some minor delays at home, so don't worry about it."

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said: "That's good. The two sides of the Taiwan Strait are not at peace these days, and my sister is worried that something will happen to you."

Jiang Fan took a sip of the tea poured by Miss Xiaohe and asked casually: "What's wrong?"

Xiaohe rushed to say: "They are just a group of tough bandits. For some unknown reason, they wander around hundreds of miles along the river. They kill young women whenever they see them. Hundreds of them have been killed. It is really unscrupulous."

"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment. He lived in seclusion in the mountains and had no information, so he knew nothing about it.

"Do you know who did it?"

Xiao He said: "Some people say that it is Chen Laozuo from Jiangxin Island. Originally, this group of people only did business on the river without any capital. Now, for some reason, they are so crazy that they even ran to the shore to kill young women who met strangers from outside. "

The young man frowned, thinking of the cheap wife at home for no reason.

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I think I am hungry, please get some food quickly."

Xiao He said: "It has been prepared for a long time. I have asked the kitchen to heat it up and will be here soon."

The girl in green said: "Young man, the business is booming now, the guests are full, and the demand for burning knives exceeds the supply. Some people even come from thousands of miles away to buy them. Shouldn't we brew more?"

Hearing this, the beautiful woman in brocade clothes also looked at Jiang Fan expectantly.

Looking at their faces and expressions, Jiang Fan knew that they all had this idea. Then he smiled and said: "Yes, but not more. An increase of five hundred kilograms per month is enough."

Xiaohe scratched his head and said, "Why? Even if it is increased by five thousand jins per month, it is not enough. If it is only 500 jins, most people will still not be able to drink it."

Jiang Fan said: "Things are rare and valuable. The less available they are, the more coveted they are, and their reputation will spread wider and wider."

"But obviously we can sell it for a lot of money." Xiao He still couldn't understand.

The girl in green was thoughtful.

Jiang Fan said: "Do you want the Eight Great Families, or do you want more money?"

"Of course it's the Eight Families, and we're not short of money."

Jiang Fan said: "Then do as I say. Remember, it is more tempting if you can't get it. Just imagine, a kind of top-quality wine in the world, but the monthly production is limited. There are hundreds of millions of people in the world, and only a few hundred people can enjoy it." , that reputation..."

The girl in green looked suddenly enlightened: "Young man, I understand. In this way, Linjiang Pavilion will definitely become a talking point for people who love wine, and its reputation will naturally spread wider and wider. And although the quantity is small, the price is expensive, and we have already made a profit. There are a lot of people buying this wine, and this wine is bound to become more and more expensive as it becomes more popular in the market. I am afraid that many people will be reluctant to drink it themselves, and most of them will give it to dignitaries. Burning the knife in this way can attract celebrities from all over the world... It is not far away. ”

Jiang Fan showed approval: "Sister Qing is really smart, you can tell with just one point."

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes had beautiful eyes, her expression was full of joy, and she said: "Everything is obeyed by Xiao Lang. From now on, without Xiao Lang's instructions, no one is allowed to change the business strategy."

"Yes, Miss." At this moment, even Xiao He understood what Jiang Fan meant and couldn't help but admire him.

"Xiao Lang, how did you get such a brain? Compared to you, I'm like a piece of wood."

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes looked at her troubled look and couldn't help laughing: "Little girl, don't compare yourself with Xiao Lang. Compared with him, you are not the only one who looks like a piece of wood."

The girl in green clothes took out a booklet from her arms and said, "By the way, last month's balance has been deposited into Sihai Bank account for you. Here is the account."

Jiang Fan smiled and said: "No need, money is an external possession, and I didn't want it in the first place."

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said: "That can't be done. Linjiang Pavilion's business was originally in a bleak state. Seeing that the ancestral business is about to be ruined in my hands, I don't want my little brother to be able to rejuvenate. Now that I have made a fortune, how can I not drink water and think about my source? I, Pei Yunjin, can do such ungrateful things. If Xiaolang doesn’t come, there’s no need to refuse, otherwise my sister will feel uneasy.”

Jiang Fan said: "Forget it, I'll be disrespectful to you. But I'll keep those at Sihai Bank. I'll ask my sister to help me sell these furs."

Miss Xiao He was puzzled: "Xiao Lang, you obviously have so much money, why do you still have to work so hard to earn these small amounts of money?"

Jiang Fan said: "These are all obtained by me and the old man ourselves. Although they are not worth a few dollars, they are well spent."

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said with admiration on her face: "Young man, I don't want to lose my peace of mind. I will buy the furs for my sister this time, and let the accounting office do the inspection and calculation later."

Jiang Fan cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry to trouble my sister. You must calculate it according to the market price. I don't want any more. In addition, I still have some goods that need to be purchased here, so I'll trouble my sister as well."

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said: "My family, if you are troublesome, I will go to the county town tomorrow to purchase goods, and I will bring them back for you."

"In this way, I will be happy and worry-free, don't forget..."

Before Jiang Fan finished speaking, Miss Xiao He rushed over and said, "I know, I want to reward Lao Ma with ten coins of wine money."

While a few people were chatting and laughing, suddenly a waiter hurried up and said, "Boss, the two shopkeepers, someone wants to go to the ninth floor."

The sound in the house suddenly stopped.

After pondering for a moment, the girl in green said: "What kind of person is he?"

The waiter said: "There is an old man with a gray beard and an extraordinary bearing. He only has a hunchbacked old servant. The villain asked him who he was, but he only said that he was an old man. He had heard about the scenery on the top floor for a long time. I wonder if he could go up and have a drink."

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes suddenly said: "Have you never announced your family status? What's so special about her?"

The waiter in the shop seemed to be a careful person. Hearing this, he was so busy that he said, "The two of them are resting in the hall now. The little man said that he would have to wait for a while. The old servant opened the package and placed an inkstone on the table. The old man spread out the paper and looked at it. Scenery outline.”

"Bi and inkstone?" The beautiful woman in gilded clothes pondered for a moment, then immediately asked: "What kind of pen and inkstone?"

The waiter thought for a moment: "The pen barrel is half green and half yellow, and the inkstone is as white as jade."

The beautiful woman in brocade suddenly stood up: "Seriously?"

The waiter said: "Anyone who wants to climb to the ninth floor, I should pay attention to it, so as not to make a mistake."

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes had bright eyes and murmured: "The pens are divided into green and yellow, the inkstones are black and white, the spring and autumn pens, and the black and white inkstones are..."

The girl in green was also suddenly startled: "Zhang Zaifu!"

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said: "Xiaoqing, go and ask someone to go up to the ninth floor. I'll pack up my clothes and I'll be there soon."

Jiang Fan asked curiously: "Who is this Prime Minister?"

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said: "The young man lives in seclusion in the mountains and is ignorant of many things in the world. The name of this prime minister is Zhang Zhiling. He calls himself a survivor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He is also the only famous senior figure in the world who works for the Great Zhou Dynasty. This man wears the Prime Minister of the Five Kingdoms. The seal is respected in the temples of the five countries and its reputation spreads throughout the world."

Jiang Fan scratched his head: "Wait a minute, sister, if I remember correctly, it has been a hundred years since the Great Zhou Dynasty existed in name only. Why is this person still working for the Great Zhou Dynasty?"

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said: "In the first half of his life, Zhang Zaifu was used by the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he maintained the inheritance of the Great Zhou Dynasty on Mount Tai. In the second half of his life, he was the official seal of the Five Kingdoms, and devoted half his life to ending the chaos in the world and restoring the orthodoxy of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Unfortunately, despite his lofty ambitions, the world is no longer what it was a hundred years ago. Now, Zhang Zaifu is over 90 years old, and his life has been in vain. He was disheartened when he heard that he gave up half of the remaining chess pieces at Taiyue Jade Emperor a month ago and signed the seal. I left at Fuyunting. I didn’t expect to come to Linjiang Pavilion today. It’s really a blessing.”

The girl in green clothes said: "Zhang Zaifu is a famous person in the world. It is my luck to come to Linjiang Pavilion today. If I can leave a few words of calligraphy, why worry about Linjiang Pavilion not being famous in the world."

"How could this old man have such energy?" Jiang Fan heard about this old man's life for the first time. While feeling emotional, he couldn't help but become curious.

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said: "Zhang Zaifu can be praised by the five countries. Although he is a nominal Zaifu, it is enough to show that he is an extraordinary person. Over the past few decades, he has influenced countless major world affairs and eliminated countless military disasters. He has a great mind. The world, with noble conduct, is admired by the world.”

Jiang Fan said: "If he is such a person, he should indeed be invited to the ninth floor."

The beautiful woman in brocade clothes said: "Don't you want to meet me, young man?"

Jiang Fan waved his hand and said: "I only fight fishermen. How can I meet such a world-shattering big shot? Besides, I don't care about world affairs, so there's no need."

The beautiful woman in golden clothes smiled and said: "Little man, sister has always known that you have an indifferent nature, but such a person is worth meeting. Besides, Zhang Zaifu has already left this temple and the world. I think he is also looking down on world affairs now, so why not meet him?"

Jiang Fan thought for a moment, he came here, even if he has to leave eventually, he still has to meet the people in this world, and there will always be something interesting about talking and laughing in the future.

He then said: "That's fine. In that case, I will be a follower and see the elegance of the Prime Minister of the Five Kingdoms from the side."
