Xie Fu asked again: "Mrs. Du, if you encounter any difficulties, you can tell me."
Du Zhiwei smiled and shook his head, and Xie Fu added: "If it's not convenient to tell me, then it's the same as telling Xianting."
Du Zhiwei secretly thought that it was Xianting's business, and said with a smile: "Young master, if you have something to do, go and do it, and leave the rest to me."
When Mr. Xie came to the door of the study, he saw Tantai Heqing sitting on the big desk, bowed his head and looking attentive. This graceful and graceful look was like seeing him for the first time, which made people's hearts flutter.
Xie Fu coughed, and Tantai Heqing looked up. His reserved and cold eyes instantly showed joy, and he stood up suddenly: "You're back!"
Suddenly she held her belly and let out an ouch. She was already pregnant with Liujia, but such a violent movement was a bit too much.
Xie Fu quickly stepped forward to help her and said softly: "Why are you so excited?"
Tantai He said angrily: "I haven't seen you in more than ten days, how can I not be excited?"
Xie Fu helped her sit down with a smile: "Why are you so busy again?"
Tantai Heqing said: "I don't want to share the burden for you."
Xie Fu lowered his head to look at the big case, and then realized that all his letters were piled up in front of her. She originally thought that Tantai Heqing came to the study for business in the cloth shop.
"As a woman, you are not allowed to read my letters in the future."
The purpose of Xie Fu's words was also to stop Tantai Heqing from worrying about him in the future.
Tantai Heqing was surprised when he heard this, and then showed an aggrieved expression: "I see that you have been busy for more than ten days and haven't come home. There are so many people visiting every day. I'm afraid that you will have to stay in the study to deal with it when you come back. Official business.”
"You think I want to read these letters of yours? If I don't read them in the future, if I read a single word, I will turn into a turtle!"
Saying that, he was about to leave angrily.
Fu Xie hurriedly supported her and coaxed: "Okay, okay, there is no secret in this letter of mine. It's okay for you to read it. I just can't bear to see that you are pregnant with Liujia and still have to worry about my official business." .”
"real?"
Xie Fu kissed her on the cheek: "I really can't be more serious, and I feel so sad."
Tantai Heqing smiled and said excitedly: "You will thank me later, come."
As he said this, he pulled Xie Fu to a map. Only then did Xie Fu notice that it was a map of Jiangnan East Road and Huainan Road. He saw that the map had been densely marked with some labels.
Only Tantai Heqing said: "Through these letters and investigations, I have helped you investigate the large and small armies in all the prefectures and counties in Jiangnan East Road and Huainan Road. This way, you will know if you receive letters from others again." Where is the army?"
Xie Fu was slightly surprised. This kind of workload is really amazing.
Tantai Heqing seemed to know what Xie Fu was thinking, and said with a smile: "Let you underestimate us businessmen. Wherever we businessmen want to do business, we have to investigate the local market and competitors clearly, so that we can be targeted. "
Then he brought Xie Fu to a stack of books: "I have classified all the armies, large and small, according to their regions. I have recorded them for you as to who the generals are, their personnel, and their guard rates." , if you don’t know the background of the army, you only need to search according to the label, and the details of the army will be clear at a glance, so that you will have an idea and will not be confused. "
Xie Fu was pleasantly surprised when he heard this: "He Qing, you are so great. It would be a pity that you don't want to be a governor or something."
Tantai He said proudly: "Don't forget, I single-handedly started the Tantai family's business. Let you underestimate me. If I were a man, I would be more than enough to be an official."
Xie Fu loved her very much: "You are really my good wife."
"I can't bear to have you work so hard."
Tantai Heqing's face suddenly turned ugly as he spoke, and he bent over and retched while holding his belly.
This frightened Fu Xie, and he asked with concern: "What's wrong with you?"
Tantai Heqing was retching and gasping, and then Xia'er's voice came: "Miss, the anti-vomiting soup is here."
Tantai Heqing raised his hand and said, "Xia'er, bring it quickly."
After taking the anti-vomiting soup, Tantai Heqing's condition improved. However, within a short period of time, his face had turned red and white, and sweat broke out on his forehead.
Xie Fu asked: "Xia'er, what's going on?"
"My lady has been vomiting very badly these days. She vomited everything out soon after she ate the food, and she couldn't eat much."
Only then did Xie Fu realize that Tantai Heqing's complexion was slightly yellow, obviously due to malnutrition.
Xia'er continued: "Miss is in extremely uncomfortable condition. She doesn't even have the strength to walk. She still comes to this study every day, saying that she wants to share the official duties with you. Sir, please advise Miss."
Xie Fu was deeply moved: "My darling, I have suffered so much for you."
When Tantai Heqing saw Xie Fu calling her that in front of others, her face turned red and she felt a little embarrassed.
Xia'er smiled, saying that with this sweetheart, all the efforts made by the young lady are worth it.
Xie Fu suddenly looked solemn: "From today on, you are not allowed to go to the study, otherwise..."
Tantai He said affectionately: "What else?"
Xie Fu looked serious: "Otherwise, we will deal with it according to family law."
Tantai He said earnestly: "I'm afraid you won't succeed."
Xie Fu came closer and said in a deep voice: "I am serious with you. If you dare to come again, I will punish you."
For some reason, the words "punish you" made Tantai Heqing's heart flutter, and he said softly: "If you don't come, I won't come. I've finished the work anyway."
Xie Fu stroked her hair and temples softly: "Be good~~"
Tantai Heqing was a little embarrassed and whispered: "Xia'er is still here."
Xie Fu said: "I love you."
Tantai Heqing's face suddenly turned red, Xia'er chuckled and said, "Miss, you don't have to be shy. Everyone knows that the young master loves you very much."
At this time, Butler Kong came to the door and reported: "Sir, Uncle Huo Duanhuo is here to visit."
"Invite him to the study and send someone to serve him tea."
After Butler Kong left, Tantai Heqing asked, "Why is Huo Duan looking for you? This man is extremely powerful. You must be careful to watch out for him, lest you fall into his hands one day."
"I came to see him for something."
"Whatever you want to do with him, if it's a business matter, you can leave it to me. There's no need to seek skin from a tiger."
"Okay, you can rest in peace and don't interfere too much in these things. I don't like it very much."
Tantai He was displeased: "You may not be as experienced as I am in this intrigue."
Fu Xie leaned over and whispered: "I have a massage technique that can stop vomiting. I will massage it for you at night. You go back first."
"Xia'er, help the young lady go back to the inner house to rest."
After a while, Huo Duan was led by Butler Kong to the study.
This was not the first time that the two of them had dealt with each other. After a brief polite exchange, Huo Duan got to the point: "Master Xie, what are your instructions for me to revise the book?"
Xie Fu did not hide anything, saying that he was currently very short of weapons, armors, horses and other equipment, and hoped that Huo Duan, a businessman with extraordinary skills, could help him search for them.
After hearing this, Huo Duan was puzzled: "Sir, you are embarrassing me. How can I get something like the Mingguang Armor casually? There may be some way to get eight or ten pairs, which is the Red Refined Armor." , with my ability, I can only get a hundred and eighty pairs at most."
Xie Fu thought that Huo Duan was suppressing first and then leaning back, and said with a smile: "Mr. Huo, you are too humble. No one knows your ability. Even the king of Silla and the king of Korea asked you for help."
Huo Duan smiled bitterly: "Sir, you really praise me. Mingguang Armor is the king of armors. It is difficult for ordinary generals to equip them. This kind of treasure is not available. If it is so easy to buy, it is not considered armor. King of."
"You really can't do it?"
"Sir, I really can't help you with this."
Xie Fu sighed, and then revealed his plan to equip all personnel in the name of military competition and reward.
After hearing this, Huo Duan was immediately shocked by Xie Fu's ambition. Even if he wanted to win people's hearts, this would be too much.
"I see, my lord, I can't do this Mingguang Armor, and I can't even do this Red Refined Armor. But I can still find ways to deal with ordinary double armor and silk armor. As for weapons and horses, it's not a problem."
Xie Fu was delighted when he heard this: "Really? I knew Mr. Huo that you had a solution?"
"Do you know how much money this will cost?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Huo, I won't let you cut your own flesh. In order to complete this matter, I am also prepared to bankrupt everything."
Huo Duan chuckled: "My lord, I am very pleased. Huo Duan is determined to go all out, but there is one thing that requires your help, lord, before this can be carried out."
"Mr. Huo just said it's okay."
"Armor weapons are unusual commodities. They are controlled. If you buy them privately, you will be beheaded. Huo also needs an authorization document from an adult, so that the business can be known. Otherwise, Huo will never dare to touch this kind of business."
Seeing that Huo Duan was so cheerful, Fu Xie said, "Wait until I inquire about the process carefully before I hand over the authorization document to you."
Before leaving, Huo Duan reminded him in a low voice: "Sir, this is an astronomical sum of money. Even if you lose everything, it may not be enough. As for the money, you can also pay for it from the treasury of major states and counties."
Xie Fu asked in surprise: "Is there any precedent for this?"
Huo Duanpo smiled meaningfully and said: "My lord, you are the military and political envoy. You have the power to make decisions on the appointment and dismissal of officials within your jurisdiction..."
The original purpose of Jiedushi was to be able to operate independently without the cumbersome control of the court, so that it could be efficient and fast without too much delay.
The banner in the hand of Jiedushi is a kind of full-power seal. Those who receive this full-power seal can have full power to make special rewards and special killings.
It can be said that everything Xie Fu does within the jurisdiction is legal and compliant, and does not need to be under the jurisdiction of the Shangshu Province of Zhongshu Province.
Xie Fu raised his hand and said, "Thank you, Mr. Huo, for reminding me."
After bidding farewell to Huo Duan, Xie Fu went to Lu Mansion and told Lu Tao all about his plan.
Of course, this process shocked Lu Tao, and he finally expressed his full cooperation.
The two discussed the details of the matter at length. When it was almost dark, Xie Fu just left and made another appointment to discuss in detail with Gu Xuan and Zhang Zhenghe.
When we returned to the inner house, it was completely dark.
