Chapter 279 Long term plan
"Grandma, I don't like generals like Jian Bai on the battlefield. In comparison, I prefer talented ones."
Talented? This is a good request.
Hearing this, the Queen Mother nodded slightly and said:
"Well, your idea is okay. But when it comes to this, Jian Bai is not bad. Not only is he strong in martial arts, but he has also read a lot of books since he was a child."
She had met Jian Bai once, and she felt that he was a handsome young man. His speech was also refined, and he must have a lot of ink in his belly.
If Fengsheng knew what the Empress Dowager was thinking at this time, he would probably burst out laughing on the spot. She and Jian Bai can be considered friends, but she has never seen Jian Bai finish his talk.
"No, he charges into battle every day, and now he has gone to Yantian County. If anything happens, I won't even have time to cry."
Fengsheng quickly shook his head and denied it.
She was afraid that if she continued to talk like this, her marriage would really be decided. After all, Feng Qing is the empress dowager. If she told Jian Chen about this, Jian Chen would not dare to refuse.
When the Queen Mother heard this, she subconsciously wanted to teach Fengsheng a few words. But when I thought about it again, it seemed that this was indeed the case.
Yantian County is not a place for people to stay. The people there are just barbaric, and they are often attacked by foreign tribes. Jian Bai went there with only a dozen of his cavalry. It was doubtful whether he would be able to come back.
Although she said she disliked her granddaughter, she still cared about her in her heart. If she really becomes a widow, then...
Thinking of this, the Queen Mother softened her heart and said:
"There is some truth in what you say. Although there are a few capable juniors from other families in the capital, they are still far behind. We should consider this matter in the long run."
Hearing this, Fengsheng breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that the Empress Dowager would finalize the matter all at once.
"Grandma, when can I leave here?"
As Fengsheng spoke, he walked behind the Empress Dowager and massaged her shoulders.
Over the past twenty days, the Empress Dowager had lost a lot of her temper, but she still felt that she had to teach this boy a lesson and temper her temperament. Otherwise, if we go out and fight every day, what should we do if something unexpected happens one day?
"When you can satisfy me with your role as a female celebrity, you can go out."
After hearing this, Fengsheng's little face suddenly wrinkled up. It would be better to lock her up for a while if she was to become a girl.
After the Empress Dowager left, Fengsheng held his chin with one hand, his eyes distracted, and his mind filled with thoughts.
How is Brother Lin doing now? After this matter is resolved, the Chen family should calm down a bit. He shouldn't be in danger in the future, right?
By the way, he had promised to attend grandma's birthday party with her. Will grandma be satisfied with him? In that case, can they be together legitimately?
There are also parents, they haven’t been home for a year, and I don’t know what they are busy with. They should also come back when they wait for grandma’s birthday party, right? I don’t know if they will support me.
I guess that guy Jian Bai has already arrived in Yantian County, right? I heard from my parents that that place is not safe for life. However, he has the position of General of Chariots and Cavalry, and his martial arts skills are not bad, so he must not die.

"The situation is probably like this. You and I are responsible for the production, and the Zhao family is responsible for the sales. If things go well, you can get tens of thousands of taels of silver a year. How about it, what are your intentions?"
Lin Xiaofan handed a small bag of refined salt to Jiang Han, the head of the Jiang family. The latter opened the refined salt and placed it on the table, which immediately attracted everyone in the Jiang family to marvel.
Judging from the appearance alone, this refined salt is indeed much better than fine salt. As for how the food tastes, although they haven't tried it, they think it's not bad at all.
However, when it was his turn to make a decision, Jiang Han still subconsciously looked to the side, where the position that belonged to Counselor Liu was. But he discovered that the position had already been replaced by someone else.
This is a good thing, but they have an agreement with the Qing family and the housekeeper not to get involved in the salt production industry. Correspondingly, the two families also gave up part of their profits to the Jiang family in other places.
Although there was no agreement on paper, if they really did this, they would probably get a bad reputation.
If you want to get the right to make salt, you have to give up a large portion of the benefits to the two families. This money is worth at least tens of thousands of taels of silver. If Lin Xiaofan and the others hadn't done this, everything would have been in vain.
"This is indeed a good thing, but I'm afraid it has to give some benefits to the housekeeper and the Qing family. Everyone, what are your intentions?"
Jiang Han looked at the rest of the Jiang family and asked.
When the final decision was made, everyone else began to have troubles, and the originally lively venue suddenly became silent.
After waiting for a long time, no one dared to speak. Jiang Han couldn't help but sigh when he saw this.
At this moment, someone finally spoke.
"Master, I think this is feasible! This member of the Qing family fought against us at the last banquet and almost killed us. Now, why should we talk about face with them?"
Everyone looked and saw that the speaker was a young man of about twenty years old. This man is Jiang Zhong, the son of Jiang Li, who is also a martial arts practitioner. Although he is young, his marksmanship has been practiced to the point of proficiency, and there are few rivals in the family.
Jiang Li had returned to the Qingzhou Army, and Jiang Zhong took his place in the council hall.
Jiang Han nodded, then glanced at the rest of the people and said:
"You should at least say a few words and at least let me know your attitude."
After hearing this, the remaining members of the clan expressed their opinions one by one:
"Master, just do everything your way."
"Brother, after you succeeded to the throne, the family's power has continued to grow, and we all listen to you."
After saying this, the decision fell into Jiang Han's hands again.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly, and the figure of Counselor Liu appeared in his mind.
What would he do if he were here?
Before leaving, counselor Liu said that closely following the Zhao family and Lin Xiaofan would ensure the Jiang family's development and growth.
Thinking of this, he suddenly had the answer in his mind.
"Brother Lin, everything is at your discretion."
After the words fell, Lin Xiaofan stood up, shook hands with Jiang Han, nodded and said:
"Okay, the people of the Qing family broke up with us last time, so don't worry about the contract. As for the housekeeper, I will accompany you, Master Jiang, to negotiate this matter with them."
Lin Xiaofan said.
The Jiang family decided to help him before, which in his opinion was Liu Hezhi's decision.
Now that Liu Hezhi has left, the decision-making power of the Jiang family is in Jiang Han's hands. Only if Jiang Han is sincerely willing to cooperate can the exchanges between the two parties continue.
Now it seems that Jiang Han made a wise decision.
As for the housekeeper, he was quite confident. Wen Yue once told him that the housekeeper's previous head was overbearing and had brought the family into a mess. There have been recent changes, the head of the family has changed, and the family has begun to recuperate. Most of the families that had feuded before have reconciled.
It can be seen that the current head of the house is a smart man. As long as you give them enough benefits elsewhere, they should agree to this matter.
"So best."
Jiang Han nodded quickly, feeling relieved in his heart.
In the past, if there were any negotiations with other families, Counselor Liu would be the one to do it. He would mostly stand in for the negotiations. If he was really allowed to talk about it himself, he really didn't know what to do.
