Encounter Qin Shihuang on a deserted island

Chapter 667 Substituting Tea for Wine and Discussing Benefits

After Chen Fangkang finished making the tea, Chang Yu also cupped it with both hands, and threw it up under his gaze.

Watching Chang Yu turn over the teacup that didn't have a drop of tea left, the corners of Chen Fangkang's mouth slightly curled up.

This also shows that Chang Yu knows tea and etiquette, and he is not an arrogant person, so there is something to talk about.

After pouring tea for Chang Yu again, Chen Fangkang smiled and asked softly, "You shouldn't come at this juncture."

"If I don't come, Hanzhong County will change hands."

"Speaking of which, I'm ashamed..." Chang Yu shook his head and smiled wryly: "I haven't been here once since I was enshrined as Marquis of Hanzhong."

"That's why you guys, local snakes... don't like me so much." The words were meant to be joking.

Chen Fangkang didn't take it seriously either, he laughed heartily twice: "Haha! I didn't expect Master Hou to be so funny!"

"After all, we are local snakes and cannot be rivals of powerful dragons! As far as the Marquis is concerned... one sentence can determine our future."

When he said this sentence, Chen Fangkang's eyes were deep, and there was no need to explain what was in the words, as they knew each other well.

Chang Yu chuckled and said nothing. Chen Fangkang took the initiative to change the subject: "Master Hou, at this time, taking such a big risk, what do you want to see me for?"

"Of course there is something to do, otherwise I wouldn't have looked for you, would I?" Chang Yu pinched his teacup and sighed lightly.

"It's okay, Lord Hou, as long as I can help, I will do my best." Chen Fangkang said with a light smile.

"It's not a big deal. I want to enter the official residence. Your residence and the official residence are only five meters away..."

"What?! Master Hou, are you kidding me!" Before he finished listening, Chen Fangkang's eyes became serious.

"In that mansion is the base camp of the rebel army, and there are soldiers patrolling everywhere... You're going to die!"

"So, you have a way to let me in?" Chang Yu smiled disapprovingly.

As the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get a tiger cub, and if you don't enter the dragon's lake and tiger's den, how can you become a master!
Seeing Chang Yu's firm eyes, Chen Fangkang was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head funny, and asked back.

"Since you are Lord Marquis, you can completely let the people under your command go. Why do you have to risk your life to break into the dragon's pond and tiger's lair?"

He wasn't doubting his identity, but he was really curious. With his identity and status, who is a good player? As for putting himself in danger?
"How should I say it?" Chang Yu was stuck with this question, pondered for a moment but couldn't think of any good excuses.

Let's put it in a more general way, and just say: "I don't trust them, I'd rather risk myself, at least I can guarantee that I will do my best."

Hearing Chang Yu's answer, Chen Fangkang was a little taken aback, and immediately said amusedly: "So, there is no one you trust around Master Hou?"

"Of course, there are not many." Of course Chang Yu understood what he meant, but he didn't want to explain too much.

The people around him are all trusted by him, each of them has their own tasks, some are more difficult than this, and some are easier than this.

Some things can be done by others, and some things can only be settled by doing it yourself, just like the current situation.

Hearing what Chang Yu said, Chen Fangkang laughed twice, picked up the teacup on the table: "Master Hou, be forthright!"

"Unfortunately, this is not wine, so I'll replace the bar with tea!" Facing Chang Yu's gaze, he swallowed it up.

As a businessman, there are dozens of large and small caravans under his control, but it doesn't mean that they will all be allowed to deal with things.

Chen Fangkang would still go through some important transactions in person, not because he didn't trust the people under him, but for the sake of 'peace of mind'.

Although the meaning is different, it is similar to what Chang Yu saw, which made him admire Chang Yu.

"Master Hou, don't talk about it, I'll find a way to help you with excuses." He put down his teacup and said boldly.

"Is this true? Then..." I really didn't expect that I would agree so readily, and I'm not afraid of getting burned!

But when he was about to say something, Chen Fangkang's expression turned serious, and he changed the subject: "But..."

"My mother..." Chang Yu was speechless, and took back those words just now! !

As expected of a businessman, he doesn't want to suffer at all!Before the big right and wrong, there are still conditions... Forget it, you won't lose your flesh if you listen to it.

"Hey," seeing Chang Yu's helpless expression, Chen Fangkang scratched his head in embarrassment: "I'm in business after all..."

Although he gave Chang Yu a point in the tea game just now, it doesn't mean he can cater to him in this kind of matter.

It is right and wrong that the life and death of the country is the big question, but he is a businessman after all, and he will not take risks if he has no interests.

"I can help you sneak into the mansion, but what good can I do?"

"You are Lord Hou, of course you are not afraid of trouble, but this fire... If it catches me, hundreds of people under my command will lose their jobs."

"You can think that I am not magnanimous enough, but I have to give an explanation to those hundreds of brothers, right?"

Looking into Chang Yu's eyes, Chen Fangkang didn't say what conditions were needed, he was telling Chang Yu himself.

Both of them are not fools, of course they can't be dismissed with a piece of candy, a piece of meat he needs, a piece of cake!
Facing Chen Fangkang's indifferent eyes, Chang Yu picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He was pondering over what kind of benefits he should give.

This matter is indeed too difficult for him... Daqin is behind him, and nothing will happen afterwards.

But Chen Fangkang's background was himself... He could help Chang Yu regardless of the consequences, but what about the hundreds of people under his command?
If he collapsed because of this, there would be hundreds of people starving, including poor families with old and young!
If the benefits given are less...he will feel dissatisfied, and he will not have a good time in the future if he offends the local rich man in Hanzhong County.

And if there are too many benefits, it is very likely that tigers are infesting... After all, his mansion is next to the official mansion.

As the saying goes, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain, and there is no room for two talkers in one city, so the benefit given... must be earned by himself.

What's the matter, give him a chance, and let him fight for it... He is in business, and he has dozens of large and small caravans... That's right!
There was a flash of light in his eyes, and he raised his head to meet Chen Fangkang who raised his eyebrows slightly, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up: "I do have a..."

"Oh? Let's hear it!" Chen Fangkang raised his eyebrows slightly, showing interest!
"As a businessman, you should know that Daqin has recently reached a trade cooperation with the sixteen countries of the Western Regions, right?"

"I know!" Chen Fangkang's eyes lit up, he had guessed what this opportunity was, and it was exactly what he needed!

As a local rich man in Hanzhong County, he controls dozens of large and small caravans, and the domestic market environment has long been unable to accommodate him!

Coincidentally, he came here to hear about the trade cooperation between Daqin and the sixteen countries of the Western Regions, and his heart was itchy!

But they can't do anything about it, because it is an official channel. Although they, private businessmen, can also intervene, it is difficult to make a lot of money.

Now, Chang Yu, who is Lord Hou, mentioned such a word... With his recommendation, the income must be several times that of ordinary caravans!
