Fu Song

Chapter 314 Choice
(About the update: I really don’t have much time to write. My health is not good this year, and my wife is not allowed to stay up late. Secondly, I am the only one in the department now, and I have to do everything. I try to write as much as possible. Each chapter has [-]K Yes, everyone can save up and read it again. I’m really sorry! I also read the book reviews and I’m very moved. In fact, I also know that those who can post book reviews and complain about the slow update are all like Fusong. But Regarding the future of San Niangzi, I still want to say a few words. Why isn’t the Liao Kingdom a good place for her? Yelujun is not comparable to Luo Gang in terms of talent or literary and martial arts. Let’s go! In addition, from our current point of view, the Liao Kingdom is not considered Chinese orthodox, but at that time, the struggle for unification between Song and Liao continued until the end of the Liao Kingdom! But later we defined Song as the Chinese orthodox, but There was no such argument at that time, so everyone is still preconceived. In the previous chapter, I also wrote a special chapter on the debate between San Niangzi and Yelujun! It’s just that I didn’t write too deeply because of my level. .)
Tian Yi is now a Sihu in Qianzhou and joins the army.

In the past, this position was insignificant, because Qianzhou only held Pengshui and Qianjiang counties.

But now this position is very hot.

Because the Sihu of Qianzhou joined the army, he also holds the accounts of the Qianzhou Chamber of Commerce.

The young Tian Yi was able to get this position, but most of it was because Tian's strength was recognized by all parties in the federation. Sizhou Tian's was worthy of this position.

However, since Tian Yi took office for more than a year, the ability he has shown has made everyone look at him with admiration.At the beginning, everyone was afraid that this former rich man would not be able to understand the accounts, make accounts indiscriminately, or even enrich his own pockets, or that he would not be able to act impartially, and would favor his family. I am more and more satisfied.

The accounts are clear, and the transactions are clear at a glance. More importantly, his work efficiency is so high that many people are dumbfounded. Moreover, he created a new set of accounting methods and accounting methods, which have been spread not only in Qianzhou Later, even many big businessmen from the Southern Federation sent their core disciples to study.

After more than a year of effort, Tian Yi's position in the federation has become unshakable.

The inside story here is only clear to Tian Yi.

The reason why I have today's status is all because of Xiao Cheng's help, and a series of new financial methods such as new accounting methods and accounting methods all come from Xiao Cheng.

I am just a porter.

Xiao Cheng did not allow Tian Yi to say that he taught Tian Yi these things. Instead, he publicly praised Tian Yi on many occasions as a talented and capable official, and he might become a minister of the court in the future.

Xiao Cheng's praise confirmed Tian Yi's extraordinary financial ability.

This also made Tian put down half of his thoughts.

As Xiao Cheng quickly integrated the forces in Qianzhou, and the strength of the Qianzhou Chamber of Commerce was also growing rapidly. As more and more people joined in, people like the Tian family and the Yang family felt a little uneasy.Many of them were businessmen from the south, and their influence was so great that even the Tian and Yang families were afraid of it.

The greater the power of the Qianzhou Chamber of Commerce, the greater the power and influence of Tian Yi, who holds the finance of the Federation, will naturally be greater. Will Xiao Cheng encourage Tian Yi to seize the power of the Tian family so that he can better grasp it? The Tian family is a question that Tian Chou has to consider.

Because from all aspects, with the passage of time, Tian Yi admired Xiao Cheng so much that he even asked Tian to cooperate with Xiao Cheng in an all-round way at the family meeting.

To put it bluntly, Tian Yi's idea was to take refuge in Xiao Cheng.

Tian Chou was a little unhappy.

He is willing to be Xiao Cheng's ally, but he doesn't want to be his subordinate.

The Xiao family is powerful now, but the Sizhou Tian family is not bad.

Therefore, Tian Chou would not hand over the Tian family to Tian Yi, even if Tian Yi showed quite a strong ability.

Give it to him, maybe he will give it to the Xiao family after changing hands.

Xiao Cheng's statement undoubtedly gave Tian Chou a reassurance.After such a long time of contact and understanding, Tian Chou is quite clear that this Xiao Zhuan judge will never do things indiscriminately.

After getting off his horse, Tian Yi walked towards the gate annoyed.During this period of time, because Xiao Cheng used troops against Luo Dian Guiguo, as a Sihu joining the army, he was so busy that he basically didn't go home and stayed in the yamen all the time.The deployment of various materials such as those used in the military must not be neglected. If a mistake is made in one point, it may cause major troubles.

Although he has the experience of fighting against the Wang family in Bangzhou before, this time, the scale and time of dealing with Luo Dian ghost country have greatly increased. This is a test for him, and Tian Yi doesn't want to mess up.

It's just that she didn't go back for a few days, and her little concubine sent someone to call her again and again today, making the colleagues in the yamen see it as a joke. It's really annoying, it seems that she needs to be repaired.

Don't blame yourself for being cruel and merciless if you want to be proud of favors.

Pushing open the door and entering, Tian Yi was stunned.

He saw a few familiar faces, they were the guards of his elder brother Tian Chou.

My heart skipped a beat, big brother is here?Otherwise, how could these people appear here?

Just come, what are you doing so mysteriously?He also asked his concubine to send someone to call him.

Tian Yi felt resentful.

Walking into the house, sure enough, at a glance, he saw that the elder brother was sitting in the hall with a lot of thoughts and drinking tea, and his concubine was serving on the side like a young child. Seeing Tian Yi came back, it was as if he had received amnesty.

"Brother, what happened to Sizhou?" Sitting down beside Tian Chou, Tian Yi said with some dissatisfaction: "You don't even know how busy I am!"

Tian Chou took a look at Tian Yi, and the mentality of a person really changes with the change of status and importance!

Like before, when Tian Yi was in front of him, he was so casual. If he didn't tell him to sit, he would stand upright.But now, in front of him, Tian Yi is already very casual.

"It's not that something happened to Sizhou, but something big happened to your family!" Tian Chou shook his head and said, "Yang Qing is here too, and Yang Quan will come to you later, and Yang Qing will come in among his entourage , the two of us need to have a good discussion."

Tian Yi was terrified, and the battle put out by his elder brother made him feel terrified.

"Didn't you say last time that King Jing's rebellion would not affect the Xiao family? Is Xiao Ding's strength enough to make everyone shut up?" Tian Yi asked.

"That's right, that's what I said. The imperial court's lock-up of Xiao Yu is actually just a way to force Xiao Ding to hand over his military power." Tian Chou said: "But the problem is that Xiao Yu died, and died in Zhao Prison , and it is rumored that he died a terrible death, I heard that the court used severe punishment!"

"How is this possible? Are those people in the court deluded by lard?" Tian Yi jumped up.

"I don't know exactly what's going on." Tian Chou said: "But I know that the power of the special envoy of the imperial court has reached Fengjie, and maybe Li Fang, the transfer envoy of Kuizhou Road, will come to our two soon. Li Fang is very clear, If we want to deal with Xiao Cheng, we have to cooperate with him."

Tian Yi's eyelids twitched, looked at Tian Chou, and remained silent for a while.

"Don't look at me like this. We have to discuss what to do. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to Pengshui quietly. Fortunately, Xiao Cheng is not here. Wait until the discussion comes to a conclusion. I will leave tonight." Tian Chou waved his hand. "Let's wait for Yang Qing and the others to come!"

Tian Yi also stopped making a sound, but silently pondered what changes this incident would bring to Qianzhou.

There is no doubt that Qianzhou is bound to usher in earth-shattering changes.

Xiao Yu died in the hands of the court, Xiao Cheng would never just give up.

After more than a year of contact, Tian Yi is very clear about Xiao Cheng's temperament.

And now Xiao Cheng's strength?

Tian Yi's heart skipped a beat.

Yang Qing came very quickly, Tian Yi entered, and within the time he had spoken to Tian Chou, Yang Quan showed up at Tian Yi's home with his people.Just looking at Yang Quan's face, Tian Yi knew that Yang Quan also understood the inner relationship.

"Xiao Dingyuan is in the northwest, and has little influence on us. In the past, we just wanted to use the power of the Xiao family to expand our influence." Yang Qing glanced at several people and spoke first: "Now the situation has changed, we The two families must think carefully about how to benefit the family? You two can be regarded as Xiao Cheng's confidantes, so it is easy to say that if we want to cooperate with Li Fang to take down Xiao Cheng, we will have to pay. What price?"

Tian Yi glanced at his elder brother, and suddenly laughed: "Uncle Yang, why don't you ask, if we abandon Xiao Cheng, how much loss will we have?"

"The loss of money is not within the scope of consideration this time." Yang Qing shook his head.

Tian Yi took a deep breath and said, "Uncle Yang, brother, since the family values ​​my opinion and brother Yang's opinion, then I would like to say that we have two options in this case, the first one, Resolutely support Xiao Cheng, and sternly reject the imperial court. The second is to evade the imperial court, and the two will not help each other."

Tian Chou said: "Why is there no option to help the court win Xiao Cheng?"

"If the family is the option, congratulations, big brother, there is a high probability that the Tian family will perish in your hands." Tian Yi smiled, ignoring Tian Chou's somewhat annoyed look: "Brother Yang, I know more about the union than you." financial resources, you know more about the force of the Federation than I do, do you think I am wrong?"

"No!" Yang Quan said calmly: "At home, I told my father, but he didn't believe it. Right now, the real army controlled by the Chamber of Commerce is about [-] people. Among them, [-] people are in the Tianwu Army, and [-] people The people are the Xiang Army controlled by Han Kai, and the other two thousand people are the Tiannan Army."

"Isn't Tiannan Army Wang Wenzheng?"

Yang Quan chuckled: "Wang Wenzheng has long been a puppet, and now the Tiannan Army only listens to one person's orders, and that is Xiao Cheng."

"Xiao Cheng controls the army by using the Chamber of Commerce. In this state, how many people will support him?" Yang Qing asked.

"Father, the Chamber of Commerce is Xiao Cheng, and Xiao Cheng is the Chamber of Commerce!" Yang Quan shook his head and said, "You should be clear about this. Li Fang is cunning and wants us to help him. Sending out troops will inevitably lead to a big defeat. If you take [-] steps back, even if the imperial court goes to Jinghu Road, Yizhou Road, or even Guangxi’s soldiers and horses, it will probably end in a loss for both sides. It doesn't matter, once the Yangtian family loses a large number of soldiers, I think everyone knows what will happen next!"

Tian Chou and Yang Qing looked at each other.

"Li Fang is old and mature. He is planning at this time. I'm afraid it's not just Xiao Cheng, but we are also involved, right? Qianzhou's land reform has basically been completed, and the Yangtian family will also lose their autonomy by then. Li Fang's qualifications, he, Li Fang, may be a higher grade when he retires!" Tian Yi sneered.

"In this case, we can only choose to stand by and watch!" Tian Chou sighed, looked at Yang Qing and said, "Patriarch Yang, after I go back, I think I will be seriously ill and can't be a director."

"Heroes have experienced the same thing. I am old and occasionally feel cold. I thought nothing would happen, but I didn't want to stay sick. What a hero sighed in his old age!" Yang Qing stroked his beard, feeling very sad.

Looking at the two of them, Tian Yi smiled, stood up, and bowed deeply to Tian Chou.

"What are you doing?" Tian Chou frowned.

Tian Yidao: "Patriarch, as one of the founders of the Qianzhou Chamber of Commerce, the Tian family enjoys considerable privileges, but this time, since the family has chosen not to help each other, after this matter is over, the privileges will probably be gone. Yep. Yi broke the door today, and in this life he only follows Xiao Zhuan, and has no relationship with the family, so I hereby report to the Patriarch, and ask the Patriarch to drive me out of the house after he returns!"

Tian Chou fell silent, the expression on his face changed, apparently unable to make a decision.

"Patriarch!" Tian Yi bowed deeply again.

Tian Chou stood up, and returned a salute to Tian Yi in a very precious way, "Little brother, this is just a pain for you."

"Perhaps this is the most important choice in my life." Tian Yi said.

Tian Chou nodded: "Okay, since you are so determined, after you go back, I will open the ancestral hall, formally expel you from the house, and cut off your family loan. I just took advantage of this to escape from illness."

Looking at this scene, Yang Quan stood up belatedly and looked at Yang Qing: "Father, I went forward and retreated with Brother Tian, ​​and Brother Tian broke the door to become a monk, so I, Yang Quan, would naturally not be willing to follow suit. I also broke up with the Yang family in Bozhou, and from then on I am me, and the Yang family is the Yang family, and the two have nothing to do with each other."

Yang Qing glanced at Yang Quan with relief. Although he was inferior to Tian Yi, compared to the unscrupulous son back then, this son has indeed grown up.

"Okay, okay." He patted Yang Quan's shoulder vigorously. "From now on, you and Tian Yi are just Xiao Cheng's subordinates, and have nothing to do with the Yang Tian family."

In the dead of night, with the north wind howling, Yang Qing and Tian Chou left overnight.

For them, Tian Yi and Yang Quan's breaking out of the family is just a possibility for two family members to abandon everything in the past to pursue the future for the benefit of the family.

Failure is nothing to the family.If it succeeds, the family's glory can continue.

If you can become a monk now, you will naturally recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors in the future.

"Brother Yang, would you like a drink?" Tian Yi smiled while patting Yang Quan on the shoulder.

Yang Quan shrugged his shoulders: "I'm afraid I don't have time. I think the signing judge probably knows the news now, and we should make some preparations, lest the signing judge come back and say that I'm just doing nothing, and I'm not busy at all." Can't help."

Tian Yi laughed loudly: "The wind is blowing and the snow is falling tonight, how about the two of us go visit Lu Canjun together?"

"That's right!" Yang Quan nodded repeatedly. "But to visit Lu Canjun, I think I need to invite another person!"

"Han Yan!"

"Exactly, Li Xin should also inform him that he is now the deputy commander of the Tiannan Army."
