The most powerful patriarch in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 40 Dividing the spoils
After chatting with the second uncle for a while, Lu Changle went to condolences to the injured clansman, and watched the situation of the younger generation in the clan practicing martial arts and studying.

The situation is even better than Lu Changle imagined,

After more than half a month of recuperation, most of the clansmen came out of the grief of the tragic death of their ancestors,
There is hope in the eyes and a smile on the face.

Lu Changle chatted with Gan Hui for a while in the sun-drying field, mainly to see what his needs were,
This is a great man, once he came to his own territory, he must never be let go again.

Until Lu Changle left, Gan Hui didn't ask what he was doing during the few days he left,
Lu Changle saw him hesitate to speak twice, but he still didn't say it in the end.

For Gan Hui, Lu Changle remained patient enough.

When homeless, give him a shelter,

When you can't find your direction in life, show him the future and hope again,

Sooner or later, he will get his sincere support.

After turning around, Lu Changle asked people to put the money belonging to Fan San into the carriage, and went straight to Changle County.

Taking the initiative to share money also shows that you are sincere.

Fan Sanbo gave up keeping a low profile and planning such a big move, there must be big moves in the future,
After accepting the nomination certificate, I have to work harder.

When Lu Changle came to the Dayuchuan tea shop, Fan Sanbo came out to greet him personally after hearing the news.

"Brother Lu, why are you here? It's been a hard trip, why don't you rest for two more days?" Fan San pulled Lu Changle's hand and said enthusiastically.

Teaching Dao Liu a lesson is a temptation,
They worked together to rob and kill the floats, and completely pulled the Fuzhou Lu family onto their big boat.

Thousands of able-bodied clansmen, and the huge influence of the Fuzhou Lu family in Fujian have greatly helped the Fan family's plan.

When I met Mr. Wen last night, it was rare to get Mr. Wen's affirmation.
Mr. Wen instructed to further win over Changle Lu. He was going to visit Lu Changle in Xingping Village tomorrow, but he did not expect him to come here on his own initiative.

Lu Changle said nervously: "With so much money left, I can't sleep well. I'm afraid Brother Qiongbiao will be impatient. Once it's melted and recast, I'll send it to Brother Qiongbiao immediately."

After finishing speaking, Lu Changle ordered Changsheng and the others to carry the two boxes in.

In the back hall, after retreating from everyone, Lu Changle opened the box and said honestly: "Brother Qiongbiao, in this operation, in addition to Da Dao Liu's property, there is also official silver equivalent to [-]. For the sake of it, I have melted it down and recast it."

"According to our prior agreement, this is 200 taels of gold and 900 taels of silver"

"These jewelry belong to Da Dao Liu. I estimated that the jewelry is worth the same as gold and silver. Brother Qiongbiao has a pawn shop. If you give the jewelry to you, you can earn more, so I took the idea without authorization."

"If Brother Qiongbiao is not satisfied, bring it up, everything is negotiable"

Fan Sanbo looked at the two boxes casually, and quickly said, "Brother Lu, this is not right."

Before Lu Changle opened his mouth, Fan Sanbo said sincerely: "Melting and recasting such a large amount of gold and silver requires a lot of fire consumption. We share it equally. We should deduct the fire consumption before we divide. We can't let Brother Lu work hard to melt it. Also take the fire consumption."

During the ambush process and the seized list, some subordinates had already reported to Fan San.
Da Dao Liu's wealth is at least 500 in gold and silver equivalents, and those jewelry are worth about [-] taels at most.

Lu Changle took away the gold and silver, and gave himself the difficult jewelry, in line with his character who loves to take advantage,

Fan San's mind is as clear as a mirror, but he doesn't point it out.

Handing over the goods to Lu Changle is to let him take advantage,
For Fan's firm, a mere few thousand taels is really not a big deal, and it doesn't matter if it is all given to Lu Changle.

To Fan Sanbo's surprise,

Lu Changle didn't take advantage of the fire consumption.

Normally, for casting a silver ingot of 50 taels, the fire consumption of three taels is reasonable.
Due to the uneven purity of folk silver, it is not surprising that 50 taels of silver ingots sometimes cost [-]% to [-]% of the fire consumption.
The salaries of Ming officials are notoriously low, and many officials rely on fire consumption to make a fuss.

Lu Changle took the initiative to explain: "The official silver is of high purity, it is a high-quality snowflake silver, and it is easy to be suspicious when used. I specially added some things. After melting, it weighs more, and the extra part just offsets the fire consumption. "

"Brother Qiongbiao, my brother will settle the accounts clearly, let's make an inventory."

Fan Sanpao closed the box casually, and said generously: "No need to order, Fan believes in Brother Lu."

"It's not good," Lu Changle said with some emotion.

"I wanted to vent my anger, but I didn't expect that Yaoshouzhong would get on the government's convoy and put Brother Lu in danger. Brother Lu, Fan is here to accompany you."

Fan Sanbo was very "guilt" and bowed to Lu Changle.

Kill an ordinary person, spend some money to clear it up, and then find someone to take the blame, nothing big will happen,
Killing officers and soldiers and robbing officials and money is a serious crime against the Nine Clans. Once Lu Changle does it, there is no turning back.

I thought how angry Lu Changle was, and I was ready to accept Lu Changle's anger, and I even thought about the reason,
I didn't expect to not mention the meeting until now, and I don't know if I was blinded by money.

Lu Changle sighed, and said with a "sincere" face: "To be honest, I was really angry at that time, but after thinking about it, Brother Qiongbiao must have made an accidental mistake. You must know that Fan's commercial firms are all over the world, and his family's wealth All things considered, our Lu family in Fuzhou is just a bit more humble, and if something happened to the Lu family in Fuzhou, the Fan's firm and the Fan family will not be spared, and they will do it if they don't do it, that's all, this is the fate of the Lu family in Fuzhou."

"If it hadn't been for the dog court's tax urging, we wouldn't have had to sell the ancestral tea mountain. If it wasn't for Zheng Du, our ancestors wouldn't have died tragically. I wanted to teach them a lesson. This time, I just wanted to show my ancestors a sigh of relief." Lu Changle gritted his teeth. Replenish.

Fan San turned his lips to reveal an imperceptible sneer, and quickly said shamelessly: "Anyway, it's Fan who got Brother Lu involved."

"There is no one who is not involved or not. It is not Brother Qiongbiao, and I will not be able to make this windfall." Lu Changle said with a satisfied face.

"No matter what, it's because Fan did something wrong. We must make good compensation to the Lu family in Fuzhou. Brother Lu, if you need Fan in the future, just ask."

Windfall? Let’s talk about the flowers of life.

Don't think that these money are easy to get, and you will have to exchange the life of the Lu family in Fuzhou in the future, Fan Sanpao sneered in his heart.

"Brother Qiongbiao, I really have something to trouble you."

"Brother Lu, tell me"

Lu Changle said a little depressed: "People in the clan said that the price of medicinal materials has risen sharply recently, and it is still difficult to buy them. Many clansmen in the clan were injured and needed wound medicine every day. Brother Qiongbiao has a wide range of resources. I want to ask Brother Qiongbiao to purchase a batch of medicinal materials.”

"It's a trivial matter, and it's on Fan." Fan San hesitated for a moment, and then readily agreed.

"By the way, I still owe you a lot of money for meat and food. I have money in my hand. I wanted to bring it, but there is an elder of the clan who is absent. There are many rules in the clan. Without his nodding, the money from the public house If you can’t move, we will settle the settlement together.”

I vomited such a big piece of meat that reached my mouth, I don’t feel heartbroken.
As for the money owed on credit, Lu Changle has no intention of paying it, and will delay it if he can.

"There's no rush. With our friendship, we'll tie the knot when it's convenient." Fan San said generously.

The Fuzhou Lu family has no turning back, this is the first step,
The next step is to increase the win over so that it can be used by yourself.

Lu Changle rubbed his hands and said, "Brother Qiongbiao is not in a hurry, but I am in a hurry."

"Urgent?" Fan Sanbo looked at Lu Changle with some doubts.

I guessed in my heart what Lu Changle was anxious about, but it didn't show on his face.

"Brother Qiongbiao, haven't you forgotten?" Lu Changle said anxiously, "It's not that there is a way for Governor Xiao, the money is ready now."

Fan San laughed, patted Lu Changle on the shoulder, and said mysteriously: "Just kidding, brother Lu, don't worry, the middleman has been found, and I'm just waiting for your decision."

"Really? When?"

"Just tonight, the venue has been arranged." Fan Sanbo said mysteriously, "Brother Lu is guaranteed to be satisfied."
