The country sends a daughter-in-law? Come and take a dozen, take them all

Chapter 488 Butler Caravan

However, this was not safe. He had to be prepared on both sides. On the one hand, he could go to the businessman for help, and on the other hand, he could escape first.

In this way, even if the businessman is unreliable, he still has a chance of survival.

The most important thing right now is to stabilize Lin Xiaofan. Fortunately, he has the status of a county magistrate. No matter how courageous Lin Xiaofan is, he can't kill him directly here.

"You don't need to investigate this matter. I'll investigate it myself."

Lin Xiaofan said. In his own fiefdom, he still has this right.

"Think carefully, has your family done anything that violates the law? Have you wiped your butt clean?"

After finishing his words, Lin Xiaofan turned and left.

When Qing Zihua saw this, a trace of joy flashed across his face.

Fortunately, I saved my life.

Suddenly, a flying knife floated from the front, getting bigger and bigger in his eyes.

His pupils dilated, and he tried hard to avoid it, but he couldn't stand up. Moreover, he couldn't see the trajectory of the flying knife, he could only see it getting closer and closer to the ground.

"save……"

Before he could finish his words, the flying knife accurately inserted into his neck.

Lin Xiaofan looked back and saw Qing Zihua covering his neck with both hands, as if trying to suppress the flow of blood. Although the blood was covered, the spread of toxins could not be stopped.

Seeing that his face was getting bluer and greener, he was about to die.

Lin Xiaofan turned his head and looked at the little witch, sighing inwardly at her strength. Although she knew Qing Zihua's position, killing the enemy with one move when her back was turned was enough to prove her strength.

In this regard, Qing Ziqing had no intention of rescuing, but subconsciously took a few steps back and carefully observed Lin Xiaofan and the others, fearing that a flying knife would fall on him in the next second.

Fortunately, the other party didn't kill him. After getting rid of Qing Zihua, he left without looking back.

Outside the private room, the guests had already fled, leaving only the body of a member of the Gu Qing family.

"Brother Lin, where are you going next?"

The little witch asked.

Lin Xiaofan thought for a while and said:

"Let's go to the housekeeper first."

Now go to the housekeeper to see if you can negotiate with Guan Gui about foreign trade. Wait until evening, then go to Wen's house for a meal.

As for Wen Yue, she has already returned to Wen's house first.

Chengxi Butler, in the past nearly a year, Guan Gui relied on the manpower and money accumulated from doing business to continuously expand the housekeeper. At this time, the housekeeper got rid of the state of being strong on the outside and weak on the inside, and became more and more prosperous.

If Qing Ziqing of the Qing family hadn't been the magistrate of the Yamen, their housekeeper might have become the largest family in Li Feng Town.

At the housekeeper's door, there are two big characters on the door plaque, dragons and phoenixes dancing, showing arrogance. The two guards held their heads high and glanced at the passers-by, with a bit of pride on their faces.

It was already noon, and there were far fewer pedestrians on the street. A carriage drove slowly, followed by countless guards on both sides. This battle immediately alerted the guards at the housekeeper's door.

If you look closely, you can see that there are many patterns printed on the carriage, and the exterior decorations are all in red. It looked...even more luxurious than their butler's carriage.

"The champion Hou Lin Xiaofan has arrived."

shouted the leading guard.

Hearing this, the two guards guarding the door changed their expressions, hurriedly changed their expressions, and stepped forward to greet him.

"Master Champion Hou, please come in quickly."

They did not dare to neglect this powerful Marquis.

Lin Xiaofan stepped down from the carriage, nodded slightly, and entered the housekeeper under the leadership of the two people, all the way to the guest room.

Before I could sit down, two people walked over quickly.

One of them looked to be in his twenties, with a pale face, and was wearing gorgeous clothes. He looked at Lin Xiaofan with awe in his eyes. He was the housekeeper's housekeeper.

The other person looked to be forty years old, with dark skin and a beard. He was wearing clean black clothes and had deep eyes. He was Guan Gui.

"Greetings to Mr. Champion Hou."

The two of them saluted at the same time. Guan Rong's movements were a little awkward, and he seemed a little afraid of Lin Xiaofan. Thinking about it, the person in front of him now has a position where he can kill their housekeeper easily.

In comparison, officials and nobles looked much better, looking up and down at the young man in front of them.

In a few months, Lin Xiaofan lost his impetuousness and youthful energy, and looked more calm. His sharp eyes and indifferent appearance seemed to have been tempered by countless lives and deaths.

Even he felt ashamed.

And it only took Lin Xiaofan such a short time to become the champion. Some people in the capital also said that Lin Xiaofan once served as a Taiwei, and later resigned from the official position.

At this time, he felt a little regretful. If he had helped Lin Xiaofan during the war last year, his status as a housekeeper would have risen all the way.

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.

"No gift."

Lin Xiaofan smiled lightly and said straight to the point:

"Guan Gui, I'm here this time to talk about the caravan."

Hearing this, Guan Gui was stunned for a moment, then his face was filled with ecstasy.

Champion Hou Lin Xiaofan actually wants to cooperate with their caravan?

Such incredible wealth could hit their heads.

"Master Champion Hou, just say it."

He smiled. As long as it was not a loss-making transaction, he would definitely cooperate with Lin Xiaofan.

In this way, by establishing a relationship with Lin Xiaofan, they would have a backer in the future.

"I wonder how big your caravan is now. How much money can you make in a year?"

Lin Xiaofan asked directly.

"There are about a hundred merchants and more than five hundred guards. There is trade in the five counties of Datang, Daliang, and Daqian. In a year, about two can earn 20,000 taels of silver."

Guan Gui thought for a moment and then said.

"Brother Lin, all the businessmen under me are smart, and they can definitely handle the tasks assigned to them. The guards are also all good hands. Look at these two in the room, they are the ones I brought from the caravan. of."

Hearing this, the steward on the side was surprised. He has no right to interfere with the management of your caravan, and naturally he doesn't understand it either.

The housekeeper's income was only about four thousand taels of silver a year before. After Guan Gui came back, his income increased. After one year, it was only about six thousand taels of silver.

And as far as he knew, even the Qingjia, the largest family in Lifeng Town, only had an income of ten thousand taels of silver. But Guangui's caravan could actually earn twenty thousand taels of silver a year.

Even excluding the income of the guards and other people, Guan Gui estimates that one person can earn four to five thousand taels of silver a year.

Lin Xiaofan nodded slightly, no wonder the housekeeper developed so quickly. With a lot of money to support it, can it develop quickly? If the Qing family hadn't been deeply rooted in Li Feng Town and had many people in the government, they would have been outcompeted by the housekeeper.

He also learned about the strength of the guards along the way. Several of them gave him a feeling of advanced martial arts.

Although it is not as good as Fengsheng, Jianbai and others, it is enough to escort a cargo.

As for businessmen, you won’t know until you get to know them.
