Chapter 123: Convincing People with Virtue

A staircase rang and reached the ears of the proud Pan Xiaoyan. The future uncle turned his head and saw a tall and handsome young man who looked seven or eight minutes later, looking upstairs.

"Dad," the young man bowed to Pan Xiaoyan, "Sister Seven has arrived."

"Yi'er, how does Xiaoqi look? Can you compare with your eighteen aunt?"

It turned out that this young man was Pan Xiaoyan's eldest son, and he was about to marry the German princess General Pan Yi. He went to Daming Mansion with his father to supervise the renovation of the old house. After the renovation of the old house in Daming Mansion was completed, the father and son had to watch the renovation of the Pan family in Kaifeng Mansion.

It took a lot of money to marry a princess for the Pan family!

However, this cost is nothing, because the Pan family has two money trees, one is Panlou! The founder of Panlou was a housekeeper of the Pan family, and in fact, it was the white gloves of the Pan family. In the early years of the founding of the Song Dynasty, doing business was not a decent thing. Therefore, the nobles asked their confidant slaves to come forward to do business, and their families took large shares to enjoy dividends.

The second money tree of the Pan family was the Pan family's gold, silver and silk store run by Pan Xiao'an. This shop was opened relatively late and was only opened by Renzong's dynasty. At that time, the nobles did not think it was embarrassing to do business, and could open a business in the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, the Pan family generals did not use white gloves and directly asked the children who could sit in the business to come forward.

With these two big money trees supporting it, the Pan family is not a strong man on the outside but a rich man!

However, the wealthy and powerful Pan family generals will not bully others with their power, or at least they will not bully people like Wu Haogu... There is reliable news that Duan King Zhao Ji's love for Wu Haogu is far more than Pan Qiaolian!

This person who painted this person may become the most important minister in the future.

Therefore, at this time, "Pan Daguojiu" paid great attention to conquering people with virtue. He found a girl in the clan who was no less beautiful than Pan Qiaolian, who was younger than Pan Qiaolian and had a good temper. He was preparing to take her as her daughter and then marry Wu Haogu.

"Dad, the seventh sister is so beautiful," Pan Yi said with a smile, "It's better than my eighteenth aunt, and she is well-educated and well-educated. She is much better than Aunt Eighteenth. I think she doesn't treat Wu Haogu badly."

"Yi'er, why did you say that to your eighteenth aunt?" Pan Xiaoyan glared at his son angrily.

Then he nodded and said, "Well, I can't treat others badly. I will ask you Uncle Eleven to prepare a dowry and marry Sister Qi over with a grand ceremony.

In this way, our Pan family generals will be in the gate of three joys!"

"Dad, do you value this Wu Haogu too much?" Pan Yi smiled, "Isn't he just a painting?"

Pan Xiaoyan glanced at his son, "If it weren't for his painting, would your eighteenth aunt have fallen into the eyes of King Duan?"

If she chooses a concubine according to the rules, she will not even be qualified to participate!"

Prince Duan Zhao Ji wanted to choose the princess, who value virtue rather than sex. And this "virtue" was quantified into the art of reincarnation. Although Pan Qiaolian was a general's daughter, she was not a legitimate wife and was qualified to be the prince's prince's concubine and queen, but in theory, she had to be behind other legitimate daughters.

In addition, Pan Qiaolian once promised Zhao's son and even "stricken" the other party to death, so she was not qualified to choose a concubine.

But even such a general girl who is not even qualified is now the first choice for Prince Duan Princess Duan - now that Prince Duan is not seen, she is about to see her!

If Pan Qiaolian really became the queen, the biggest contribution would undoubtedly be Wu Haogu!

"Yi'er, our family has received the favor of Wu Haogu," Pan Xiaoyan said with a lesson. "If you receive favors, you must repay the virtue... This is called conquering people with virtue, do you know?"

"What Dad taught me is that the child must keep it in mind."

"Yes, yes," Pan Xiaoyan nodded, "You will be the head of my family in the future. You must remember to convince others with virtue so that my family can last for a long time. If you forget this principle, you will end up like Wang Jinqing and have a bumpy life."

"The boy knows."

Pan Xiaoyan said: "Go and bring Sister Qi here, I'll see her with my own eyes."

"Go right away."

...

At the same time, Wu Haogu and his group had already arrived at the house of Pan Xiao'an in the west of Daming Prefecture. This house is incomparable to the Pan family's ancestral house, but it is also a big house that can be entered or left in five. Next to the house is the Gold and Silver Lane of Daming Prefecture, which is the "Financial Street" of Daming Prefecture, and the Pan family's Gold, Silver and Silk Transfer Store is opened here.

When Wu Haogu passed by Jinyin Lane, he observed it and found that the Pan family gold, silver and silk store in Daming Mansion was more grand than the main store in Jiesin Lane of Kaifeng Mansion. It is the largest and most grand gold, silver and silk store in Daming Mansion in Jinyin Lane of Daming Mansion.

"The Pan family has a great influence here," Ximen Qing said to Wu Haogu, "The old house in the Pan family in the south of the city is the second only to the palace in Daming Mansion.

In addition, there are more than a dozen Panjia Manors outside Daming Prefecture, which occupy more than 200,000 mu of land."

Mi Youren also said: "The Pan family is also famous among the generals of Kaifeng Prefecture. Just a Pan Building, how much is the investment in a year? What's more, there is the Pan family's gold, silver, silk and silk shop... The fields outside the Daming Prefecture City are not very cheap at all, they are all very cheap."

There was a strange phenomenon in the Song Dynasty. The land was concentrated, but the ordinary land was not expensive. Even in Kaifeng Prefecture, the ordinary farmland was only a few to ten. The farmland in Daming Prefecture, which was flooded once a few years, was even cheaper. In some places, you can buy a mu of land for a few hundred cents.

"What about the real estate in Daming Mansion?" Wu Haogu was waiting outside the door of Pan Xiao'an's mansion and asked about the housing prices in Daming Mansion again.

After visiting Daming Mansion, Wu Haogu discovered that the population density here is also very large, at least hundreds of thousands!

Moreover, the prosperity of the city's business is no worse than that of Kaifeng Prefecture.

"Although Daming Mansion has a large population, the property is not too expensive," said Mi Youren, "it is incomparable to Kaifeng Mansion."

The high housing prices in the Northern Song Dynasty seemed to be just Kaifeng Prefecture, and other places were OK.

Zhang Xizai knocked on the door at this time, and the one who responded to the door was an old man with a little back. After hearing Zhang Xizai talked for a long time, he saw Pan Xiao'an's post again, and then smiled with all his teeth and said loudly: "Oh, oh, it turns out that he is the friend of Master Eleven. Come in, come in quickly."

Mi Youren stepped forward and bowed: "Old man, can Governor Pan be in Daming Mansion?"

"It's here, it's here." The old man said, "The princess is about to marry into the Pan family. She has to take care of her ancestral home and ancestral tombs, but she's going to be busy for a while.

By the way, which man are you from?”

Not to mention, the old man has bad ears but good eyesight, and he can tell at a glance that Mi Youren has an extraordinary background.

Mi Youren said: "I am Mi Youren from the Mi family, and my father is Mi Yuanzhang."

"Oh, oh," the old man nodded repeatedly, "It turns out that he is an official from Xiaomi. Please come quickly, please come in quickly... Someone here, come and welcome the Xiaomi official from the Mi family!

Send someone to the Daman Gate to report, and then say that Xiaomi officials have come to Daming Mansion."

After hearing the old man's yell, Mi Youren smiled bitterly and said to Wu Haogu: "Teacher, tomorrow the students have to go to the Pan family mansion to meet the governor Pan first... We generals have a lot of etiquette and cannot be bad at all."

"Oh, it's okay," Wu Haogu smiled, "You go first, I'll go again the next day."
