C276 The Mouse in the Bellows
Under the dim oil lamp, Fan Shoubao's stomach was full of dark red scars, crisscrossing like crawling earthworms, which were very shocking.
"This is the military merits that I have earned after following King Yi of Taiping Country for ten years. " Fan Shoubao sighed heavily and said with a tone full of regret, "If I had stayed at home, how would I have such military merits?"
Seeing his father's expression, Fan Tingfu was very regretful of what he had done when he was young. While he was surprised, he thought to himself that although the Taiping Country sounded very ideal, in the eyes of the Left Commander, Hong Xiuquan, Yang Xiuqing, and that King Wing, Shi Dakai, were unpardonable criminals with long hair who rebelled and could not be punished.
Now, Commander Zuo led the army of the Imperial Court into Xinjiang to reclaim the country. It was a righteous action, and the people's hearts desired it. It was completely different from Taiping Country, which had been in the south. It could not be mentioned in the same breath.
Moreover, what kind of wise man was the Left General? He had experienced hundreds of battles and read many poems. He was wise and resourceful, and he was a hero. How could he be compared to Hong Xiuquan and Shi Dakai?
Thinking of this, Fan Tingfu felt his blood boiling. He wanted to lead his brothers and follow Commander Zuo into the border to kill the enemies. He wanted to reclaim the land and make a heroic feat.
"Dad, the environment has changed. It's different from when you were young. " Fan Tingfu's eyes were bright. He stared at his father and said loudly, "Commander Zuo is praising the Fan Family so much. We can't let him down, can we?"
Seeing his son speak like this, Fan Shoubao put on his clothes and thought, Looks like this kid is determined to follow Commander Zuo on the expedition. Xin was thousands of miles away from Daan. It would be a disaster if he went there.
The connections of the Fan family's big house. . . I don't have a lot of people in the past, but now I'm here. The generation has finally improved a little. Now that I have two energetic sons, I can't possibly lose one, right?
Hence, early in the morning the next day, Fan Shoubao came to the Qing army camp and paid a visit to the left marshal, claiming that he was willing to use the reputation of the Fan family to lead Fan Tingfu and his brothers to gather grain for the rebel army.
Originally, when the left marshal was celebrating, he casually praised Fan Tingfu. However, later on, his work was complicated and he had long forgotten about this matter. In his life, he was such a casual and straightforward person.
At this moment, he saw Fan Tingfu. Someone actually took the initiative to provide grain to assist the army in overcoming the rebellion. Furthermore, this person was Fan Shoubao, one of the two greatest financial powers on both sides of the Yellow River. How could he not be happy?
Immediately, he laughed heartily and praised Fan Shoubao. He even wrote a note and instructed Fan Tingfu to gather grain in Great Peace. When the day of the rebellion was victorious, he would report it to the Imperial Court and ask for the credit.
This time, Fan Shoubao met the famous Commander Zuo and got the note he wrote for his son. He stopped his son from entering the border and killed three birds with one arrow. Fan Shoubao was secretly very happy.
When Fan Tingfu saw the note written by Commander Zuo himself, the ambition in his heart was gone. He stared at his father with dissatisfaction and could not say a complete sentence for a long time.
Just like that, Fan Shoubao used his wisdom and strategy and cleverly left his son in the Fan household. After the incident, although his son was very dissatisfied with him and said some disrespectful words, in Fan Shoubao's opinion, as long as he could save his son's life, he could do whatever he wanted.
On the night one hundred and five years later, after telling the story of the old man who was almost a legend, Fan Youbao sighed and said proudly, "Obviously, this is the old man of the Fan family. "
When he said this, he thought that if his four sons could be united, they would definitely surpass Fan Shoubao and his two sons. However, the second son, Fan Wengong, actually ignored the feelings of his father and his brothers for the sake of that riverbank. He seemed to be determined not to give up until he achieved his goal.
As the saying goes, Three stinky blacksmiths were better than Zhuge Liang. Besides, his four sons were definitely not stinky blacksmiths. On the contrary, they were all very smart. They were even like the second son, Fan Wengong, who was a little too smart.
Perhaps it was because they were too smart. These four sons had their own ideas since they were young. Their relationship with each other was very bad. They did not know how to argue or fight. When they grew up, they would not even be able to piss in a teapot.
Other things aside, when the third brother, Fan Wenlin, was buying a building, he even specially found his parents and asked them to tell Fan Wenbin if they could give him a discount and buy a cheap house in Yi Yuan District.
When Fan Youmin passed Fan Wenlin's meaning to his eldest son, Fan Wenbin smiled and said meaningfully, "Dad, why didn't the third brother tell me directly?"
Later, under Liu Aijuan's insistence, Fan Wenlin finally bought a building in Tongsheng District, which was close to the Yi Garden District. He spent nearly 100,000 yuan on it, which made his heart ache for many days.
Sigh, sometimes, Fan Youmin and Wang Fang were also in a difficult position. Four sons and two daughters, their palms and hands were all meat. What should he do to be considered a bowl of flat water?
"Dad, the old ancestors of our Fan family are indeed capable. " After Fan Wenming heard the story, his heart was filled with deep respect. He said in a very envious tone, "I'm afraid there are only a few people in the world who can be admired by Commander Zuo of Zuo Zong Tang. "
When he said this, he thought that if he was Fan Tingfu and lived in that era, no matter what, he would follow Commander Zuo to Xinjiang. Even if he died on the battlefield, he would never regret it.
That year, when he graduated from junior high school, Fan Civilization was only seventeen years old. It was the late 90s of the last century, when people were restless. Seeing that many of his classmates went to the south to earn big bucks, he naturally did not want to die of old age in the land of Daan.
When Fan Wenbin heard the news that Ling had gone to the south to work, he was slightly startled at first, then he gave his father a call. After confirming it, he said with disappointment, "Born with a life of suffering and poverty, no one can do anything about it. "
After wandering in a few cities along the southeast coast for a few years, he did not earn much money, but he suffered a lot. There was even one time in the middle of the night, he encountered a robbery at the Wenzhou Train Station, and was almost beaten to death. Only then did Fan Wenming experience the hardship of being outside.
Looking at the dark sky, thinking of his parents in his hometown, thinking of the warmth of his home, he hid in a dark corner alone and cried loudly. At that moment, he really wanted to return to his hometown immediately. From now on, he would never go out again.
However, when the sun rose the next day and welcomed the bright sunlight, all of this sadness and suffering disappeared. Fan Wenming mustered up his courage again and stepped onto the train to Shenzhen.
As the saying goes, trees move dead people. If he couldn't get past Wenzhou, he would go to Shenzhen. In any case, people are alive. As long as he had a breath, he had to break through. He had to work hard. If he died one day and a pile of dirt was buried, his life would end like this.
At this moment, Fan Shide, the old ancestor of the Fan family's Daan, followed the old lady when he was twelve years old. He had braved the northwest under the giant locust tree in Shanxi. He was fearless of death. More than two hundred years later, the Fan Civilization was vividly demonstrated once again.
After a few twists and turns in Shenzhen, he finally found a job to settle down. In an electronics factory founded by Taiwanese people, food, accommodation, and sales were done. At this time, Fan Wenming no longer dared to run around. He forced himself to calm down and seriously promote those electronic products.
After two years of hard work, Fan Civilization's wallet gradually swelled up. At this time, a very unexpected opportunity made his fate change again.
It was summer many years ago, during a rainy afternoon, he went to the company warehouse to check the goods. Because of the rain, it was noon again. Fan Wenming had enough time to check the products that the customers needed. This way, they would have confidence in the negotiation.
Just as he was seriously inspecting the goods, a few men with dignified expressions walked in. Among them, a thin man glanced at Fan Wenming and ordered coldly, "Introduce the model of the product to Boss Liu. "
After that, he found out that this person was the boss of Ulrich, Zhu Lixiong. At that time, Fan Wenming was very enthusiastic. He cleverly introduced all the products, the person who had always been called Boss Liu, in detail.
Boss Liu listened to the introduction and checked the products. He asked the small details that could easily cause negligence from time to time. He asked very carefully and seriously, and Fan Wenming's answer was even more correct. He was clear and straightforward, which made the other party very satisfied.
Before he left, Boss Liu held Fan Wenming's hand tightly and said with a smile, "Young man, you have a really good memory. " Then, he said to Zhu Lixiong, "This young man is a talent. "
He could tell that Fan Wenming's praise was sincere. Fan Wenming's expression was very calm. He only smiled modestly and said neither servile nor overbearing, "As an employee of Ou Lige Company, this common sense is necessary. "
He did not expect that his fate would completely change at this rainy noon. Two days later, a very enchanting young lady led Fan Wenming into the boss's office.
The atmosphere of the conversation was very relaxed and pleasant. Fan Wenming was not nervous or restrained at all. Zhu Lixiong first asked about the other party's family situation, then smiled and said, "Little Fan, from today onwards, you are the marketing manager of Ulrich Company. "
This sentence slightly surprised Fan Wenming, and he could not help but reveal a trace of surprise on his face. Later, when he thought of this scene, he felt very emotional. Luck really existed.
From the moment he walked out of the boss's office, Fan Wenming's luck was getting better and better. Happiness came one after another, making him feel a little dizzy.
"The old ancestors are capable, but they pay more attention to family solidarity. " Fan Youmin stared at his youngest son and said, "As long as a family is united, it will be prosperous and prosperous. "
It was undeniable that this was the truth. Fan Wenming also understood the real meaning behind it. He smiled bitterly and said something meaningful, "It is everybody's business to be united, not everybody. "
At this moment, he thought of his nephew, Fan Xuehua. After receiving the phone call from his nephew, Fan Wenming quickly reported the matter to Zhu Lixiong in detail. Seeing that the boss was frowning slightly, he volunteered to let him solve the small problem.
Zhu Lixiong stared at the marketing manager of the company. After a moment, he coldly instructed, Little Fan, you must handle this matter well. You must not affect the reputation of Ou Lige Company in the business world because of this small matter.
Just like that, Fan Wenming brought his wife, Chen Jiahui, with an anxious heart. From Shenzhen, which was thousands of miles away, they soon arrived at their hometown, Daan. They helped their nephew, Fan Xuehua, deal with this fierce dispute caused by the quality of the surveillance cameras.
Fan Xuehua and Zhang Ling were very enthusiastic about Fourth Uncle's arrival. In Vanguard, the three of them sat together. They talked, talked, and talked for a long time.
In the end, they shared a common enemy. They unanimously decided to use their fearless courage to fight against the Huang father and son who had deliberately provoked the Fan family. If they did not seek justice, they would not withdraw their troops.
The next day, according to the plan, the three of them made a trip to the County Trade and Commerce Bureau and went straight to Director Liang Zhengang. They showed him all kinds of legal procedures and strongly requested to unseal that batch of goods.
Fan Wenming did not want to offend this big leader of the County Trade and Commerce Bureau. His tone was gentle and firm. "Director Liang, as businessmen, it's not easy to earn a few hard-earned money. "
Liang Zhengang looked at the many procedures and understood that it was true. He laughed and called Jing Yuanlin over, saying that he had a very important meeting to attend. He did not care about this matter and let Jing Yuanlin handle this matter fully. After saying that, he picked up the briefcase and left in a hurry.
Seeing this scene, Jing Yuanlin's face revealed a trace of disdain. Immediately after, she called over the two young men called Little Wei and Little Liu, and they followed her to Vanguard Company to deal with that batch of goods.
Little Wei was slightly stunned, and then he asked, "Section Chief Jing, why don't you call Section Chief Shi along?" Jing Yuanlin said without a good voice, "Division Chief Shi of the Human Clan is going to have a meeting with Bureau Chief Liang, so he can't be bothered. " Xiao Wei and Xiao Liu looked at each other and did not dare to say another word.
Just like that, the batch of goods from Pioneer Company was sealed off for a few days. The person who put the seal on was the deputy director of the Quality Inspection Department of the County Trade and Commerce Bureau, Shi Nana. The person who tore the seal off was the Quality Inspection Department's Director, Jing Yuanlin. In Fan Civilization's opinion, it was very funny.
Later, Zhang Ling told Fan Xuehua that she was very disgusted with dealing with the Pioneer Company. She thought that Liang Zhengang did not dare to offend the Huang father and son and had the intention to make things difficult for Fan Xuehua.
Of course, this was also a matter that happened a few days later. In order to express her gratitude, Zhang Ling went to Jing Yuanlin's house. This old woman secretly told her and repeatedly reminded her not to speak carelessly.
When Fan Xuehua told Wang Shao Lan about how he defeated the Huang father and son, he actually made the other party laugh non-stop. He said with a slight ridicule, "Fan Xuehua, I really didn't see that you were quite brave. "
"At that time, it was related to the life and death of Pioneer Company. How could I not be brave? When a rabbit was anxious, it would bite. Besides, I am a living person. We can't let the Huang father and son ride on their heads and shit and pee, right?
Fan Xuehua looked at the surging yellow river and pondered for a while. Then he muttered to himself, "I keep feeling that this matter isn't over yet. Perhaps the Huang father and son will come looking for trouble with me. "
Wang Shao Lan smiled and said, "It's not that the Huang father and son are making things difficult for your Big Boss Fan. It's the Vice-Chairman of Hua Cheng Group, Zhou Boyi. He wants to find trouble with you. Do you understand?"
"Zhou Boyi?" Fan Xuehua was slightly stunned. He hurriedly looked at Wang Shao Lan and asked, "She is not a good bank president. Why would she cause trouble for me?"
