Chapter 32 Good News

Xishanli, Yan Mansion.

A four-person lifted the sedan chair and entered the sedan hall quickly and steadily. As soon as the sedan chair landed, Yan Qichang, who was in his early sixties, bearded and gray, bearded and crawled out of the sedan chair. He raised his eyes and glanced at the few people who were coming up. Yi Quescrow immediately turned cloudy and looked at Yan Shikuan, and said, "Didn't the sending of people to report the news that Lezai had something urgent to see me?"

Yan Shikuan knew that he was in a bad mood. One day, he was in the Shangshang Office and was walking around the inspection team of six Chinese and British people. He looked like a grandson. It would be strange if he could be in a good mood. He quickly smiled and said, "Lezai hasn't arrived yet..."

Before he could finish his words, Yan Qichang scolded: "Nonsense, don't you know what you are doing for your father?"

"Don't calm down." Yan Shikuan still laughed with her, "Lezai was invited by Mr. Pinghu to drink Dahongpao in the morning, and it's time for him to come."

When Wu Bingjian invited him to drink Dahongpao? Yan Qichang couldn't help but be stunned and said, "Mr. Wu Chamber of Commerce invites Yi Zhizu to drink tea? Or is it the Dahongpao he treasures?"

Yan Shikuan hurriedly said, "It's true that Wu Changqing came to invite him early in the morning."

Yan Qichang asked while walking towards the main room, "Can you know why?"

"This... I don't know." Yan Shikuan said step by step: "Le Zai didn't say anything, just asked the child to wait for him at home, saying that he was waiting for his good news."

"Good news?" Yan Qichang asked casually, what else can the Yan family have?

"Yes—." Yan Shikuan said loudly: "Lezai has drafted a repayment plan for Xingtaihang."

"Repayment plan?" Yan Qichang stopped suddenly, turned around and stared at him and said, "Yi Zhizu has drafted a repayment plan for Xingtaixing? Why haven't you mentioned it before?"

Yan Shikuan stopped immediately and lowered his head and said, "Lezai agreed to his child to plan a repayment plan for Xingtai Store early in the morning, but the child was unsure and never dared to make a statement."

Isn't the repayment plan so easy to draw? Yan Qichang also drafted a copy himself, but was scolded by the rank of the Governor's Office and threw it directly on the ground. The merchant of the Xingtai business is worth more than 2 million yuan. He is powerless, and he is easy to be content with a young man who is still not tired. What kind of decent repayment plan can he draw? He asked him to come back and forth for this matter?

He felt a little angry, but this was his son's filial piety after all, and he was lazy to blame him. He quickly walked into the house to drink a pot of herbal tea, and ordered his servants to serve a bowl of porridge, ready to rest for a while, and then rushed back to the Shangshang Office. The Governor's Office instructed Chinese and British merchants to form a six-person liquidation team. It was okay for three Shangshang, but the three British merchants were like death-hunting ghosts. He really didn't dare to leave for too long.

Yan Shikuan didn't know what he was thinking. He slapped and said, "The weather is stuffy and hot. After my father changed into casual clothes, it seemed a bit inappropriate to see Lezai in his official uniform."

Inappropriate? Yan Qichang looked at him in surprise. His son reminded him to pay attention to this meeting with Yi Zhizu. Moreover, the tone of his son talking to him today seemed to be.... He thought about it and then said, "Have you seen Le Zai's repayment plan?"

Yan Shikuan quickly shook his head and said, "No."

I haven't seen it before, so where can I get the confidence? Yan Qichang glared at him and stopped looking at him. Yan Shikuan was already a little afraid of the old man. He glared at him and did not dare to talk more. He just hoped that Yi Zhizu would come quickly.

After Yan Qichang finished drinking a bowl of porridge, he ordered someone to prepare a sedan chair and prepare to return to the Shangshang Office. Just when Yan Shikuan was upset, the servant in front of him ran in quickly to report: "Report to Master, Young Master, Young Master Yi is here."

It's been here! Yan Shikuan felt relieved and hurriedly said, "Since Le Zai is here, you might as well meet him, right?"

Yan Qichang nodded slightly and sat down slowly. Yi Zhizu had a very good relationship with Lao Wu, and was also out of good intentions. Even if he had no hope for the repayment plan he planned, he could not go against his wishes.

Seeing his father nodding, Yan Shikuan quickly ran out to greet him. When he met Yi Zhizu at the second door, he asked, "How?"

Yi Zhizu shook his head slightly and said, "It's not as satisfactory."

"Ah?" Yan Shikuan was stunned for a moment and said quickly: "My father has been disturbed by the inspection team every day and has a little temper. Third brother, you have to take more responsibility."

Yi Shizu smiled and said, "Don't worry, if you want to suck your fire, you will only slap at you."

Yan Shikuan was not in the mood to talk nonsense to him, and said straight away: "I just told my third brother about the repayment plan for Xingtaixing, and my father still had to rush back to the Shangshang Office. The third brother tried to make a short story."

"It seems that I'm not here." Yi Zhizu stopped and said, "Why do you come again next day?"

"Stop making trouble, okay?" Yan Shikuan quickly bowed and said, "The third brother is a little bit of responsibility, I'll treat you tonight."

"Tonight, Pan Shiming held a banquet at Shuzhuqiao Restaurant."

"Then tomorrow, I'll treat you tomorrow."

Yi Jingzuo smiled and walked: "Save it, let's save money, we will be busy with both feet, but we don't have time to drink and have fun."

The two of them talked all the way into the hall. At first glance, they saw Yan Qichang sitting upright in the main seat in his official uniform and said, Yi Zhizu hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "I have seen Uncle Yan."

"Satisfied is here... There is no need to be too polite, sit down." Yan Qichang squeezed out a smile, reached out to give up his seat, and ordered tea to be served.

Yi Zhizu stepped forward and sat down and said straight to the point: "Yan Shibo is busy with affairs, so my nephew said it straight." After a moment of saliva, he said straight: "I am planning to build a large watch workshop - Tianbao Watch Factory. The Wu family has agreed to invest 20% of the shares, 100,000 silver dollars. My nephew wants to use Tianbao Watch Factory to guarantee repayment for Xingtai Bank. In this way, Xingtai Bank does not need to go bankrupt and liquidate."

Yan Qichang was stunned when he heard this, as if he was suddenly confused by a silver mountain falling from the sky. Is this the repayment plan Yi Zhizu planned for Xingtaixing?

Yan Shikuan was also stunned. He was hanging with Yi Zhizu every day and had never heard of any Tianbao watch factory. With such a big thing, Yi Zhizu naturally could not make nonsense. Besides, the Wu family invested 20% of the shares at a price of 200,000 yuan, which could not be fake!

After coming back to his senses, Yan Qichang quickly leaned towards Yi Shizusa and said with a eager look: "Good nephew, tell me in detail, what's going on?"

Seeing the servant bringing tea, Yan Shikuan hurriedly stepped forward to take it, waved his hand and took it away, and said diligently: "San brother, drink a little tea and moisten his throat first."

Yi Zhizu was indeed thirsty. After taking a sip of tea, he briefly mentioned the matter of preparing to build the Tianbao Watch Factory and Wu Changqing's proposal to invest.
