From Liu Xu, Bailang learned that this time after he was imprisoned, in addition to the natural help from the sword hall, there were also three big shots from the city lord's mansion who came forward to say hello to him. It was precisely because of pressure from many parties that the Yamen released him so quickly. Otherwise, given Deputy Judge Liao's ability in the yamen, it would be totally fine to lock him up for a few more days, and it would not be impossible for something to happen again as time goes by.
Therefore, Liu Xu specifically told Bai Lang that he had to accept this favor and express it in some way.
But the First Madam and the Second Madam were okay, after all, Bai Lang knew what they were asking for in helping. It is nothing more than more details about the industrial park or some related specific ideas. This is not difficult for Bailang. There are many details in the industrial park, and there are many aspects that he has figured out that can be applied to Yongchuan City. It is not difficult to give some to the two wives of the city lord who are obviously competing with each other.
What Bai Lang could only hold back was Zhou Zhonghao, the city lord's personal bodyguard. This Bailang has never been in contact with him at all, let alone like him. In Liu Xu's words, "You can only remember that there will always be a time when you will be asked to ask for the favors you owe."
Compared to Ma Liu who simply acted as a mouthpiece and didn't even dare to open Bailang's letter for him to deliver, Zeng Fei was obviously too excited. After receiving Bailang's "return gift", I couldn't wait to start reading it, and read it twice in a row. I even asked Bailang for half an hour before sending Bailang to the door with satisfaction.
Before leaving, Zeng Fei whispered in Bai Lang's ear: "Brother Bai, reliable news is that the City Lord's Mansion has drawn up the accounts for the first industrial park, and it should be launched before the end of this year."
"Oh? Does Boss Zeng know what industry it is?"
"It's probably a specialty here."
"iron?"
"To be precise, it should be Iron Smelting. Brother Bai, if you have any plans, you can make preparations early. You proposed the strategy, and you know best the changes and impacts that will occur once the industrial park is established. These are all What an opportunity! If you take any action then, don’t forget me and give me a hand, I will never treat you badly, Brother Bai!"
The news given by Zeng Fei was not easy. As Zeng Fei said, that was a big opportunity! Great opportunity to make a fortune! But there is still something to be learned about how to use it. And this opportunity to make a fortune is not given to Bailang in vain. In exchange, Bailang needs to bring Zeng Fei with him, or let Zeng Fei participate in the construction of the first phase of the industrial park more conveniently.
At the same time, if Bailang wanted to maximize his profits from this news, he couldn't handle it on his own. He would also need to bring the knife shop with him.
Needless to say, taking care of all aspects of this series of relationships and twisting them into a coherent whole is definitely not something that can be done in a day or two. Fortunately, the time is still long. There is still more than half a year before the end of the year, so Bailang can take his time. He understood that if he could make good use of this news, he would make a big splash no matter in the City Lord's Mansion or the Swordsmanship Hall and he would definitely be treated differently. This will be a great help to his path in Yongchuan City.
After leaving Zeng Fei's house, Bai Lang went to Qianfang first. He didn't see Liu She, so he went directly to Liu She's house to visit him. This is his second visit. As soon as he entered the door, he could feel the different treatment from the previous time. Liu She received him directly in the study room instead of in the side hall. Suddenly he seemed much closer.
"Come, try this year's brick tea from Nanzhuang. It's most suitable to cook and drink it at this time."
There is a small table in the study, with tea sets and a small clay stove on it. There is a kettle steaming over the charcoal fire. The rich aroma of tea spurts out from the spout of the teapot and spreads throughout the study. Even Bai Lang, who didn't understand tea, found the aroma pleasant.
After a sip of hot tea, the unique sweetness and fragrance of good tea linger in the body for a long time. The aftertaste is definitely not comparable to the crude tea from the street tea stalls, or even two completely different things.
"Master Snake, this tea is delicious! Thank you for the hospitality, Master Snake!"
"Haha, I like to take two bricks back and cook them myself when I leave later. Now, tell me, what's the reason for coming to my place?"
After thanking Liu She for the gift and not rejecting it, Bai Lang got to the point: "Master Snake, I was thinking about things related to the water money account..."
Liu She did not interrupt and listened carefully. At first, his expression was normal, but soon there were obvious changes, especially the look in his eyes, which clearly flashed with excitement and eagerness to try.
It is not something difficult to understand in itself. It is like a thin veil that can be seen clearly once it is lifted. For Liu She, who has been in the money shop for many years and is already familiar with it, the new methods of handling money accounts proposed by Bai Lang not only made his eyes shine, but he also immediately sensed the huge room for profit growth.
"A good idea, and the success is likely to be high. Are you going to try it with the Kuang family you just mentioned?"
"Yes, Mr. Snake. The Kuang family will have to wait another three or two months to transfer dead accounts. We intervene in advance and let the accounts be suspended. We set a short-term income expectation and then let the Kuang family complete it. Give them a way to survive and give them a better life." The sweetness after they overachieve serves as encouragement. As long as there is a profit of half a year to a year, I believe that the obstacles in the knife studio will no longer exist in the face of profit."
"Hahaha! You are a good boy, with ambition and ideas! No wonder you can be appreciated by the sword with a strategy, and even the city lord's palace will keep you in mind. With a talent like you in Qianfang, I will be able to relax in the future Got it!"
There is no need for a heavy hammer to play the drum. Smart people usually don't speak directly, so that if something happens, they won't be able to advance or retreat. And Liu She's words were already full of meaning. Bailang also understood what the other party was exploring.
"Master Snake is so complimentary. The previous strategy for the industrial park was also suppressed. It was to complete the promotion task given by Master Liu. Unexpectedly, it was actually adopted by the City Lord's Mansion. Now I heard that it will be officially launched soon... ."
After briefly chatting with Liu She about the industrial park, Liu She patted Bai Lang on the shoulder with satisfaction and said that he would help Bai Lang submit his idea in Bai Lang's name. Then after the Kuang family gets results, if the results go well, then take Bailang directly to Tang Yan to report in person. The good intentions of support are obvious.
Liu She even walked Bailang to the door himself.
When parting, Liu She said jokingly: "You have an unusual mind. I am very interested in the industrial park you just mentioned. If you have any news, please let me know when the time comes, so that I can open my eyes too?" "
"Don't worry Master Snake, Bailang will definitely not forget Master Snake's support."
"Okay! Go ahead. Listen to what I'm saying today. You're going to have a drink at Qunxiang Garden. Keep an eye on that group of people. It'll be fun, but don't make trouble there."
