Ning Fan spent another two thousand reputation points to exchange for a copy of "The Analects of Confucius", and finally used the remaining ninety points to exchange for a picture of a lady.
Finally all the reputation points were spent.
"System, use the peerless civil servant summoning card!"
"Summoning, please wait!"
Ning Fan's face showed a look of expectation. This summons did not have the special effects of killing the god of soldiers. Instead, it was unremarkable until a figure passed away.
This man has regular features and a rather generous figure, and there is an aura of calmness and authority between his brows.
"Wei Zheng, meet my lord!"
"Wei Zheng!"
Ning Fan had a look of surprise on his face. He had thought about Fang Du, Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu and even Zhou Lang, and even the black-robed monk Yao Guangxiao.
But he never thought that this summons would actually invite Wei Penzi into the world.
Speaking of this person, his life experience is enough to be called a legend.
Originally a rebel, he returned to the Tang Dynasty to offer advice, and later served as an aide to Prince Yin. After Li Jiancheng fell, he was accepted by Emperor Taizong.
Later, he became famous all over the world for his direct advice!
It can be said that he is one of the few loyal and upright ministers in history. Only Cao Cao and Li Er can tolerate such a person. If he were an official under Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuo, I am afraid that even a hundred heads would not be enough to chop him off.
"Xuancheng, I didn't expect you to be the one who entered the world!"
Ning Fan looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with emotion. Wei Zheng had not yet recovered the memory of his previous life. He just bowed his hands slightly and stood aside with a solemn expression.
"Who is this?"
Yang Zaixing looked at Wei Zheng with a suspicious look on his face. Ning Fan glanced at his cleared reputation value and couldn't help but slap his forehead. He actually forgot to redeem the memory beads.
"This is Wei Zheng, named Xuancheng. He has great talents and looks like a prime minister!"
"Xuancheng, this is Yang Zaixing, a man of martial arts who is considered invincible in the world."
"I've met Mr. Wei!"
"General Yang!"
The two also greeted each other, and Ning Fan was not in a hurry to use the troop summoning card. Now that the card has been redeemed, there is no reason for the system to engulf him.
And he was staying in the Cai Mansion. At this time, there was no external or internal trouble, so there was no need to worry.
Besides, you need to give money and food to summon it, and there won’t be much improvement in combat power, so there is no need to rush to summon it!
"System, check Wei Zheng's attribute page!"

"sharp!"
"It is worthy of being a famous admonition through the ages!"
"The value of force and control are good, but the intelligence and politics are even more incredible!"
"The system can be upgraded!"
"The upgrade is about to begin. The reputation value has been successfully deducted. The upgrade time is 12 hours!"
"Are you sure?"
"confirm!"
After Ning Fan confirmed it, the system seemed to disappear directly from his body, and a sense of emptiness and crisis could not help but spread throughout his body.
It has to be said that now that the system was suddenly separated from him, Ning Fan suddenly felt a sense of urgency. The long-term dependence on the system and the complete sense of security that the system brought to him completely disappeared in this moment.
Everything that happened in the past year was like a dream. After taking a look at Wei Zheng and Yang Zaixing, who were standing respectfully next to them, Ning Fan finally settled down.
However, a strange thought suddenly arose in his mind. If one day, the system was permanently separated from him and everything given to him was taken back, would he still be able to strategize as he does now?
"call!"
Ning Fan got rid of the messy thoughts in his mind, took a deep breath, and his mood couldn't help but become heavy.
There is still a long way to go!
"Who are these two?"
A soft voice sounded behind Ning Fan, and Cai Wenji and Xiao Cui were seen walking slowly, regaining their previous dignified air, exuding the unique temperament of a lady.
"Well, this is my guard!"
"My name is Yang Zaixing. Next to me is my accountant. His name is Wei Zheng. His courtesy name is Xuancheng. He has been studying for several years and can basically read!"
Wei Zheng on the side couldn't help but feel ashamed as he listened to his lord's introduction, while Yang Zaixing grinned.
"Um!"
"Xiao Cui, go and ask Uncle Qin to clear out a side courtyard so that Mr. Zhao's attendants can stay."
"Pack out Xiuchun Villa and ask Mr. Zhao to move there another day."
"oh!"
Xiao Cui nodded obediently and looked at Yang Zaixing and the other two: "You two, please follow me."
"Go!"
Ning Fan also nodded and gave instructions. Now that the task has been completed, he was not in a hurry to leave. After all, the business war with the Hu family was about to begin.
The Cai family is the main position and main combat force.
"Yan'er, do you have a spare room in your attic for me to stay in?"
When Cai Wenji heard Ning Fan address her like this, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then her pretty face turned red: "Mr. Zhao, after all, you and I are different between men and women, and we haven't made an engagement, how can we... be in the same room!"
"How can this be considered being in the same room?"
"Such a big building, wouldn't it look empty if you sleep on your own?"
"Besides, my father-in-law said that it would be convenient for me to live downstairs to take care of you!"
"This...is not appropriate!"
"What's wrong?"
"Do you hate me, Yan'er?"
Ning Fan's mouth was full of tea, and he seemed to have completely let go of his pride at this moment, staring at Cai Yan with fiery eyes.
"Of course not...just..."
Cai Yan bit her lower lip tightly, with a tangled look on her face, and a fierce struggle began in her mind.
Traditional concepts told her that this matter was absolutely inappropriate, and if ordinary people brought it up, she would be kicked out directly.
But he is Zhao Lang!
"Oh well……"
"Um!"
"Come and sit."
Ning Fan grabbed Cai Yan's catkins, asked him to sit down next to him, and said softly: "I heard that you are taking care of all the business of Cai Mansion?"
"Not entirely!"
"Most of the business outside is done by my third uncle. My father and my second uncle are not good at business, and my third uncle is always busy outside."
"Now, I've taken over some business!"
"How many shops are there in Lingzhou?"
"Well...more than ten families!"
"More than ten families are enough."
Ning Fan pondered for a moment and said softly: "I have asked my family to transport ten thousand stones of refined salt. Please discuss with your uncle to see if you can expand Cai's shop into a salt store!"
"Um!"
Cai Yan blushed and sat side by side with Ning Fan, feeling even more flustered in her heart. She wanted to get up but was reluctant, and wanted to lean her head over, but was a little shy.
"Second Master!"
A careless voice came from outside the courtyard, and Ning Fan could not help but curse. Cai Yan stood up suddenly like a frightened deer and looked towards the courtyard door.
"hey-hey!"
Lin Yong walked in with a grin on his face and walked quickly to Ning Fan: "Master, there is a letter from home."
"oh?"
Ning Fan had a look of surprise on his face. He opened it and took a look, with a wry smile on his face: "This girl is really brave."
"Let Miss Long go there in person and pick up the girl."
“No room for error!”
"yes!"
Lin Yong nodded and left in a hurry.
Ning Fan looked at Cai Yan and saw him staring at him with a suspicious look on his face, and explained softly.
"My little sister sneaked out of the house to look for me."
"The little girl is not afraid of anything. She doesn't know the dangers of the world."
"I'm worried. I'll send someone to help her."
"Um!"
…
