President Pan has become dark, thinner and strong.

The above are the first impressions of Wu Haogu when he met Pan Xiao'an.

Although a person is still the same person, his spirit is completely different. He shows strength and excitement inside and outside, and his spirit is flying, as if he is about to fly up immediately.

"Sister Eighteenth Sister, Dalang, ah, Brother Yin, why are you here too?"

Getting off the horse's back and carrying the smell of dust and sweat, Pan Xiao'an strode into the yard. Seeing Wu Haogu coming out to greet him, Pan Qiaolian and Mi Youren laughed and greeted him.

When Mi Youren heard Pan Xiao'an's question, he replied with a smile: "Brother Eleven, I just worshiped Mr. Chongdao as my teacher and learned painting skills. Now I naturally have to follow the teacher.

But Brother Pan Shiyi, why did you come to Haizhou? Now that the battle on the Hengshan front is about to be fought, the Liao people in the north are also ready to move. Should you be waiting for the Japanese army?”

"Brother Yin knew that the Northwest War was about to come, so what else is there to ask?" Pan Xiao'an said with a smile on his face, without any shame, "How can a certain family go to the battlefield with such skills? Even if they go, they will cause trouble for their husbands, so they took sick leave and deal with some business matters."

"Is it easy for Brother Eleven to go all the way? I don't know what the activity is, so urgent?"

Mi Youren's questions came one after another, and Pan Xiao'an was very embarrassed. However, in terms of shame, Mr. Pan still smiled brightly without any pretentiousness.

"Business, business matters." Pan Xiao'an said, "The north wind is blowing, and it is the time when the maritime merchants set sail south. At this time, the interest on debt lending is the highest.

The Haizhou semicolon received several big deals and had to come here to host it in person."

The business of maritime merchants is to "just look at the wind and eat". When the northwest wind blows, it will go south and when the southeast wind blows, it will go north.

Therefore, every autumn and winter season of Haizhou Port is the day when merchant ships leave the port. Naturally, it is a time when funds are tight and interest rates are high. As the owner of the gold, silver and silk shop, it is reasonable for Pan Xiao'an to come to preside over the presidency in person.

But the road was a little tight.

"Brother Eleven, there is a shopkeeper in Haizhou where you are in charge. What's wrong with worrying about it? You're so thin that you're too busy all the way? What kind of big deal is it?"

Pan Qiaolian felt a little distressed when she saw her brother's appearance, so she hurriedly went up to support her with Xiaopinger.

"It's a money-making loan from Quanzhou," Pan Xiao'an had already compiled the speech, "If these deals are done, maybe they can make the deals to Quanzhou in the future."

"So that's the case," Pan Qiaolian was still a little skeptical, but she couldn't keep asking in front of everyone, so she said, "Go and have some food first, and then take a break soon."

"I'm really tired. Xiaopinger, please help me take a shower and change my clothes." Mr. Pan walked into the house with Xiaopinger, suddenly stopped and turned around and said, "By the way, when I left Kaifeng, I met Gao Qiu from Prince Duan's Mansion. He asked me to send a message and told you to go back early, so don't tell the nobles to be anxious."

Speaking of which, it has been a while since Wu Haogu went out, and it is time to go back and take in another good apprentice.

"Eighteen, it seems that it's time to go back." Wu Haogu turned his head and said to Pan Qiaolian.

"Well..." Pan Qiaolian responded, and his good brother Pan Xiao'an coughed twice in a hurry.

Only then did Pan Qiaolian remember that there was still such a "lewd run" in the secular world!

She was an unmarried girl who had been wandering around with her lover for a long time. If she went back with Wu Haogu, the rumors would probably be born.

Besides, her biological brother has also arrived in Haizhou now.

It is reasonable and reasonable that we should go back to Kaifeng Mansion with our brother.

"Da Lang," Pan Qiaolian pouted her cherry mouth, "I'd better go back to Kaifeng Mansion with the Eleventh Brother."

Wu Haogu hesitated for a moment and nodded: "This...is good, I'll feel relieved if Sister Eighteenth and Brother Eleventh."

He was worried and had no choice. It was not the 21st century now. It was enough to wander outside with Wu Haogu for so long, just like Pan Qiaolian.

If you go back with Wu Haogu and ignore your own brother, it will be really a "lewd" one.

Moreover, in Wu Haogu, the separation between him and Pan Qiaolian was only temporary. Once he returned to Kaifeng Prefecture, he would be able to "take" the future Song Huizong!

Although Song Huizong is just a prince now, it is not difficult to protect himself as an official. With the support of King Duan, Mi Fu, Wang Shen and others, Kaifeng calligraphy and painting and calligraphy were also closed with his eyes and he would be able to make a lot of money by then...

With an official, money, and a steel-like backstage, I am still afraid that I won’t be able to marry Pan Qiaolian?

...

In Pan Xiao'an's bedroom, a large bucket of hot bath water was ready, and only a small bottle was served to take his bath.

As soon as he entered the door, before he took off his clothes, Mr. Pan asked anxiously: "Xiaopinger, they... don't have that?"

"I almost want to get the Wu Dalang cheaper," Xiao Ping'er said, carefully observing the color of the President Pan. "Fortunately, I used a trick to disturb them."

President Pan breathed a sigh of relief. Although the current atmosphere of the Northern Song Dynasty is still relatively open, Pan Qiaolian had the opportunity to marry King Duan and would become the queen in the future. If it weren't for the perfect jade, it would be a stain.

If Pan Qiaolian's belly is bigger by Wu Dalang, everything will be over!

Now it is finally blessed by our ancestors, and the Pan family’s generals are about to prosper!

"Okay! Ping'er, you did a good job." Pan Xiao'an was overjoyed and said to Xiao Ping'er, "I have a lot of rewards! I think I want to be very proud, just speak."

"I don't want to do anything. I just hope I can serve my eighteenth sister all the time." Xiao Ping'er said timidly.

"Haha," Mr. Pan laughed, "You girl is really good at speaking, it's okay, so you will follow your wishes. If you join the 18th in the future... uh, you will go and have a dowry. You can also be considered a member of the Pan family, and you will be rich and powerful in the future."

What's the meaning?

Xiaopinger was confused when she heard this. Wouldn’t the Eighteenth Sister marry Wu Haogu in the future? How could she be rich and powerful when she was the same concubine as her past?

Just when he was confused, Grand Official Pan spoke again, "Let's go, go and serve the Eighteenth place, you don't need you."

"Here."

Xiaopinger responded and retreated, but his heart became even more confused.

Mr. Pan has always been pampered and has a good life. How could he not be treated by someone when taking a bath? And smelling the smell from his body and the dust on his clothes, he knew that Mr. Pan had suffered a lot these days.

What happened to this Grand Official Pan? Did he encounter a huge happy event or became a fugitive?

...

"Is the joint stock business? I also invested in one. By the way, Dalang, what is your business doing?"

After taking a hot shower, the official Pan, who had changed into clean clothes, appeared in front of Wu Haogu again, and was in the guest hall, while savoring the clouds and mists to taste tea while talking.

Wu Haogu told Mr. Pan about his plan to establish a joint stock trading company, and immediately received a positive response.

"Calligraphy, painting, literature and entertainment," said Wu Haogu, "we are all the old masters of the Wu family, but they are different."

"How to do it?" Mr. Pan seemed very interested.

"Appraisal, singing and selling, and calligraphy and painting club." Wu Haogu paused and said, "We don't need the merchants on Panlou Street to collect calligraphy, painting and art to sell. We just need to do three things: authenticity, singing and selling for others, and opening a club."

Can this work?

Official Pan actually didn't believe it, but he wanted to send Wu Haogu immediately.

So he said, "Okay, this is a good deal. Some family has invested 10,000 yuan. By the way, the third brother of some family has also heard of your name and wants to see you."

Pan Qiaolian said: "Brother Dawu, my third brother is the leader of the Pan family's generals. Now he is the governor of Byn Prefecture, and his son is about to marry a German princess. These days he should renovate his old house in Daming Mansion to prepare for his son-in-law. The princess lived when she went to Daming Mansion to worship her ancestors and visit relatives."

Pan Qiaolian's ancestral home is Daming Mansion, Hebei. Although most of the people in the Pan family lived in Kaifeng Mansion, their ancestral homes and ancestral tombs were in Daming Mansion. Each house in the clan also had manors and residences in Daming Mansion.
