Tantai Heqing took a breath of air. As she expected, her mother's identity was indeed no small matter.
Xie Fu smiled and said, "Even if you can't trust me, you should at least believe that as a famous lady, I won't let myself down."
Tantai Heqing also felt that it was wrong to assume that others, mainly Xie Fu, were really uneasy. Wang Wanzhi, the unparalleled national scholar, could get started, so what else was impossible?
To be honest, aside from her status as fiancée, she really admired Xie Fu's charm in this aspect.
He looked at Xie Fu with resentful eyes, "Fu, sometimes I really wish you could be mediocre and not be so outstanding."
Xie Fu smiled and said: "I have no power, no power and no money. I am not mediocre enough."
"If you were mediocre, you wouldn't be the prince's son-in-law."
Xie Fu coaxed softly: "I said I want you to grow bigger."
Tantai Heqing smiled softly: "You are deceiving yourself." He said softly: "Don't worry, I have figured it out a long time ago, otherwise I would have swept you out. Just feel good."
Xie Fu clasped his hands together and asked, "Can you please stop talking about this?"
Tantai Heqing deliberately smiled charmingly: "Fu, please marry a few more people and come to our house to be my sisters."
Xie Fu's eyes turned cold, and it seemed that he could only use that trick to convince her.
When Tantai Heqing saw it, he stood up and hid quickly, and took the initiative to say: "Let's talk about business!"
As a close friend, she naturally understood what Xie Fu wanted to do. He would fight to death every time, and she had to surrender and beg for mercy.
"The fourth sister Ye Yui's natal family is the Ye family in Luoyang, the largest grain merchant in the world."
Tantai Heqing took a deep breath after hearing this, and heard Xie Fu say: "The generous gift she sent me is the Jiangnan East Road Grain General Merchant License."
Although Tantai Heqing is a cloth merchant, she also knows something about the grain trade. Grain trade is not as important as the cloth industry. It involves the national economy and people's livelihood. She also understands the importance of Jiangnan Dongdao Grain General Merchant License.
"Fu, is it that simple?"
"Of course it's not that simple. The license for the Jiangnan East Grain General Merchant is up for grabs every ten years, and there will be another bid in Suzhou soon. The last person who held the Jiangnan East Grain General Merchant's license was the Hangzhou Zhu family, and the backers behind the Hangzhou Zhu family were He is Zhu Clan, one of the four clans in Wuzhong."
"So the Hangzhou Zhu family is also the biggest competitor in this bidding. Sister Yui can only help me with all her strength. We can't be the only one. I still need to fight for it myself."
Tantai Heqing understands the struggle for power and interests involved in this license, not to mention the involvement of famous figures. Business wars are like battlefields. If you are not careful, you will be doomed. "Fu, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, so why do you have to fight for it?" This license plate?"
"He Qing, do you want me to be your pretty boy for the rest of my life, eating and wearing your clothes?"
"This..." Tantai Heqing was speechless.
"As a man, don't you want me to have my own foundation and my own portal?"
Tantai Heqing nodded: "I think, I hope Fu will shine brightly and have a tall family."
Xie Fu smiled: "More importantly, I don't want to be a vassal of a famous noble. I can only listen to what is said and cannot be independent. As long as I am powerful enough, I will let you become bigger, and the royal nobles will not dare to fart."
Tantai Heqing's blood boiled when he heard this, and he nodded enthusiastically, without thinking too much about the possibility of this matter.
"Obtaining the title of Gangnam Dongdo Grain General Merchant is just the first step for me to establish a foundation!"
Tantai Heqing was confused, isn't this enough?
Xie Fu smiled: "He Qing, let me tell you a secret, don't be shocked."
"What secret?"
"Are you going to become the wife of Jiedushi soon?"
Tantai Heqing was stunned for a moment, as shocked as a giant thunder falling from the sky.
Jiedushi! That's a second-grade police officer who is a level higher than the governor...
Looking at Xie Fu's young face, he said softly: "You are kidding me."
Xie Fu said calmly: "Wang Junheng, the former Minister of the Ministry of War, is already in Chang'an looking for a job for me."
Tantai Heqing heard the words and thought secretly
, it turns out that he is a prince, and to be worthy of Wang Wanzhi, he must be of a high family. It seems that the prince intends to elevate Xie Fu's status and allow Wang Wanzhi to marry him naturally.
It would be too exaggerated to make such a big move as the second-grade *** in one move. Even the royal family cannot cover the sky with one hand, so he asked softly: "Is it feasible?"
Xie Fu smiled and said, "If it were an ordinary second-grade official position, it would be a bit outrageous. However, the position of Huainan Dao Jiedushi is a bit special. It is a false title and a hot potato. No one is grabbing it, and no one dares to take it."
As he spoke, he told Tantai Heqing about the historical origins and predicaments of the Huainan Dao Jiedushi.
After hearing this, Tantai Heqing was secretly worried. It seemed that it was either a blessing or a curse. He asked softly: "Since it is just a false title and full of dangers, why do you still want to be the governor?"
"Firstly, there is no name to establish a career, and secondly, misfortunes and blessings depend on it. As long as I can hold the real power, the position of Huainan Road Jiedushi will be well-deserved. Others regard it as a hot potato, but to me, it is for me Born."
Tantai Heqing was thoughtful and murmured: Hold the real power...
Thinking of the historical origins and predicament of the Jiedushi of Huainan Province, he suddenly looked at Xie Fu in surprise: "This is why you want to bid for Jiangnan East Road Grain General Merchant." Holding soldiers means holding power, holding grain also means Just hold the soldier.
Xie Fu smiled and said, "God helps me, so I have to accept this generous gift from Sister Yui."
"Fu, I'm afraid every step will be dangerous!"
Even business wars involve intrigues, and the struggle for power in official circles is even more dangerous.
Xie Fu held Tantai Heqing's hand: "Heqing, don't say far, just say that I hope to protect you under my wings."
"Back then, the Tantai Mansion was heavily in debt, and you were alone. The road ahead was bumpy, but you still made it through step by step. Now that you are with me, how can I be as cowardly as a female like you?"
Tantai Heqing smiled: "Fu, I often ask what I can do to help you, so that you can have food and clothing without worries. It seems that it is not what you think. I think, what I should do is to help you establish a high profile and reshape Xie family’s brilliant reputation.”
Xie Fu was moved: "He Qing, you are so kind. I am so lucky to know you."
Xie Fu told the truth without any deception. He was really touched and felt that he owed He Qing a lot.
"After Wenwang got married and had his own family, I became an outsider, and you were the only relative."
Tantai Heqing said and gently snuggled into Xie Fu's arms.
Xie Fu suddenly felt extremely affectionate: "No, I want to love you well and make you believe how much I love you."
As he spoke, he hugged Tantai Heqing.
Tantai Heqing immediately knew what he wanted to do and hurriedly said: "I believe it, I believe it."
Xie Fu walked towards the attic on the second floor: "No, I want to prove it with actual actions! I love you fiercely."
Tantai Heqing was frightened, happy and panicked, and said weakly: "Don't be harsh, be gentle."
This time, Xie Fu's special gentleness made Tantai Heqing feel the different softness of autumn water, and he was as happy as a little woman...
