Fang Hua did not know that the two giants of the Shanxi Tongmenghui had a discussion about him and characterized him as a wall-riding faction. But even if he knew it, he wouldn't care too much. After all, with his current identity and status, it's not something that just a few revolutionary parties can shake. [bsp; At this moment, Fang Hua is on his way to the Qiao family. Originally, the Qiao family only had a cooperative relationship with him at the Jinhua Cigarette Factory, but since the last time he rescued Qiao Jinya in Qixian County, the Qiao family's relationship with him has gradually become closer. stand up. According to Fan Yi's report, the Qiao family has invested heavily in the Guisui area controlled by Fang Hua in the past six months and built many shops and workshops. Although the scale is not large, it is very important for the economically backward Guisui area. It is said that it has boosted the local economy to a great extent.
Therefore, after hearing Liu Xiaosuo's report that the head of the Qiao family and several children had arrived at the villa in Taiyuan these days, Fang Hua immediately brought Yang Zhi to visit, firstly to thank the Shanxi merchant boss for his support, and secondly to meet him. Meet Miss Qiao.
It was not the first time for Fang Hua to come here. He got lost in this courtyard a few years ago and met Miss Qiao by accident. Looking at the familiar courtyard in front of him and thinking about the past a few years ago, Fang Hua couldn't help but feel a little distracted. He didn't react until Yang Zhi reminded him.
Fang Hua dismounted and immediately had someone notify the gatekeeper.
The concierge seemed to have heard of Fang Hua's name and did not dare to neglect him. He hurriedly entered the room to inform him. After a while, the concierge hurried back.
"Master Fang, unfortunately our master is not at home now. He went out to meet friends this morning. My eldest son will come out to greet you soon. Please wait a moment." The old concierge said politely.
Fang Hua nodded slightly, and then asked curiously: "Have you ever heard of me?" From the concierge's polite behavior, Fang Hua was a little confused. Logically speaking, he had been away from Taiyuan for a few years, and someone who knew him should not too much.
"Of course I have heard of Mr. Fang's reputation. Our young lady often talks about you. You are our young lady's savior." The old concierge said very respectfully. After all, the young man in front of him is not only our young lady's savior. My benefactor is a famous general, but a very important person.
Fang Hua smiled secretly in his heart, so that¡¯s it. Qiao Jinya had an experience of being kidnapped, so she naturally talked to others, and her name spread easily.
At this moment, a well-dressed young man in his twenties walked from the yard. When the young man saw Fang Hua, who was talking to the concierge, he quickly walked over and said politely: "Is this Mr. Fang, the capital of Suiyuan? I am Qiao Yinghe, the eldest brother of my roommate Qiao Jinya. I heard that Mr. Fang came to I came to visit you, but I hope you¡¯ll forgive me for being a little disappointed!¡±
When Fang Hua saw Qiao Yinghe, who was handsome and similar in age, he immediately felt good about him. He stepped forward to greet him and said, "It's my presumption. I should inform your house before coming. I hope Mr. Qiao won't take offense."
"Mr. Fang, you are my sister-in-law's savior and the benefactor of my Qiao family. There is no need to be so polite. Please come in." Qiao Yinghe smiled and then welcomed Fang Hua and others into the living room.
Arriving at the living room, Fang Hua signaled Yang Zhi to hand over some fruits and snacks to the servants, and then said politely: "I came in a hurry. I just brought some snacks from the grassland and some fresh fruits. Let's talk about it." Just think about it."
It was just some fruits and snacks. Naturally, Qiao Yinghe would not continue to refuse and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Fang."
The two of them sat down, Qiao Yinghe invited the servants to watch tea, and personally accompanied them.
"Hey, my father happened to be out meeting friends today, and he may not be able to come back until evening, which is unfortunate for Mr. Fang." Qiao Yinghe said with some regret.
"Here and there, I came here today to thank Mr. Qiao for his strong support to the Guisui area. Even if I can't see Mr. Qiao in person, it's fine as long as he expresses his feelings." Fang Hua responded with a smile.
Qiao Yinghe nodded slightly. As the eldest young master of the Qiao family, he naturally knew about some of his father's investments in the Guisui area, so he said: "I see, Mr. Fang is really thoughtful. Mr. Fang is the benefactor of our Qiao family. Our Qiao family just invested some money in the Guisui area. Besides, Mr. Fang made Guisui a well-connected and well-connected government. On the contrary, our Qiao family has benefited a lot from the Guisui area. In this way, our Qiao family has to thank Mr. Fang."
Fang Hua said modestly: "When it comes to handling political affairs, I can't say that I know nothing about it, but I don't get along with it much. The reason why Guisui is what it is today is all because of a few subordinates. I am a hands-off boss." , and didn¡¯t make much effort.¡±
"Master Fang is able to know people well and assign them well. This is also a skill. Who in the officialdom today is not thinking about?There are not many good officials who can think about doing practical things for the people while making money in their own pockets. Mr. Fang is one of the few capable officials who can make the local people live and work in peace and contentment. "Qiao Yinghe said with some admiration.
Fang Hua's heart moved. He didn't expect that Qiao Yinghe in front of him was still an angry young man. He was quite indignant when he talked about some of the shortcomings in officialdom nowadays.
"Haha, I can't stand those corrupt officials, but my position is limited, so I can only be on my own." Fang Hua laughed and did not continue to answer.
Qiao Yinghe, who was opposite him, also realized that he had lost his composure. Fang Hua, who was in front of him, was also in the officialdom. These words were inevitably suspected of criticizing Sang and Huai. He quickly restrained himself, coughed, and said, "I also felt this. , I¡¯m a little excited, please don¡¯t be offended, Mr. Fang.¡±
"Master Qiao is also a man of good temper. If everyone in the officialdom has such a sentiment as Master Qiao, then people everywhere will not live in dire straits. If the country is stable, the country is rich and the people are strong, the big powers will not dare to provoke us easily. It's a pity that this is just a wish." Fang Hua's words were not meant to deal with Qiao Yinghe, but indeed some of Fang Hua's emotions.
A country can only win the support of the people if it treats its own people well. In this way, whether it is resisting foreign humiliation or stabilizing the local area, it can be united and united. Only in this kind of country can people feel safe and have a sense of belonging. Thinking of some injustices in later generations, Fang Hua felt a little sad.
Hearing Fang Hua's emotion, Qiao Yinghe's favorable impression of him doubled. He nodded with satisfaction and said, "Master Fang has great views, and I admire you."
At this moment, a servant from outside the door came in and reported: "Master, Mr. Fang, Miss would like to invite Mr. Fang to come and see you."
Qiao Yinghe asked a little strangely: "Didn't my little sister just take a lunch break? Why did she get up so soon?"
The servant replied: "When we delivered the fruits and snacks brought by Mr. Fang, we accidentally woke up the lady. The lady heard that Mr. Fang sent them, so she wanted to invite Mr. Fang to come over."
Qiao Yinghe nodded slightly and said: "I see. In this case, please invite Mr. Fang to go over and see my sister-in-law, so that my sister-in-law can express her gratitude to Mr. Fang in person."
Although Qiao Yinghe knew that it was not appropriate to let a man enter her sister's room, firstly, Fang Hua was Qiao Jinya's savior, and secondly, he had a good impression of Fang Hua, and his sister seemed to be thinking about this savior. My benefactor, just let them take their own course.
When he heard Qiao Jinya inviting him over, Fang Hua's heart began to beat faster, but it was hard to show it on his face, so he drank tea to cover it up. When he heard Qiao Yinghe speak, he stood up and said with a smile: "Since So, then I¡¯ll go over and see Miss Qiao.¡±
