Going through the Red Mansions quickly means going against the system.

"My father also traveled to Hexi for many years. Because I was still young, the family business was handled by the stewards and shopkeepers. I found that although they were all older and more talented than me, they still couldn't do without me."

"You are the head of the family, how can they get past you?"

"Hey! This is the foundation. Isn't the throne of Brother Shui's family unshakable?"

"The lingering shadow of our ancestors is here, and you can't go just by asking others to go."

"Nowadays, foreign tribes often commit crimes in the north. The fiefdom of Brother Shui's family is there. Our ancestors also obtained the fiefdom through military service. If other people don't know about it, how can we not know about our business? The imperial court cannot do without you."

"Now that the weather has changed, it's either windy here or raining everywhere in the north. When the white-haired wind blows in the north, there will be no harvest for many years."

"Foreign tribes have no food to eat, so they will come to rob us. Our country has a vast territory, how can we know that they are coming as soon as possible? Don't we want to see you, the King of Beijing?"

Seeing that Shui Rong had listened, Xue Pan spoke more and more quietly, and finally leaned into Shui Rong's ear and said:

"Your Majesty, I don't have anything else in my family, but I am willing to dedicate my entire family fortune. If I can protect Your Majesty's border in Beizhen from now on, it will be worth it for me."

When Shui Rong heard this, he heard Xue Pan calling him Prince.

As a bald prince who was panicking in his heart, the prince's shout sounded really nice, and he took it into his heart.

"Then what do you want?"

Shui Rong also seemed to be mumbling to himself, his voice so low that it was almost inaudible.

"Of course what I want is to shine at the top of my family." Xue Pan grinned.

"Aren't you afraid of being said to be a prodigal?"

Shui Rong was a little moved. He could really afford the words "Guangyao Menlin".

"Is this a business? There must be profits and losses. Anyway, I'm the only one in my family...and I believe Brother Shui won't ask me to lose!"

Shui Rong turned around, his eyes emitting a strange light. He took another serious look at Xue Pan, the person who was rushing to bet on him. He did not look as stupid as he appeared.

"You have good taste."

Shui Rong couldn't help but laugh in a muffled voice. He lost all his pretense of modesty and openly showed his ambitious and domineering spirit.

"You have really good taste."

"My little brother also thinks he has a good sense!"

Xue Pan and Shui Rong looked at each other for a long time, and finally laughed together.

With this tacit understanding, other things would be easier to say.

Shui Rong called for food and drinks, and the two chatted again about the Xue family's current business situation.

Xue Pan always wanted Shui Rong to know how strong his family was.

Shui Rong saw that Xue Pan's business was indeed better than theirs, so he took the booklet Xue Pan presented, verified it one by one, and finally put it in his arms.

At the back of this booklet is not only the property of the Xue family, but also the context diagram of the Four Kings and Eight Gongs.

The most important thing is that there is another sentence above. Xue Pan claims to be able to guarantee that the four major families of Jia Shi Wang Xue will definitely follow him in betting.

Although this was a big statement, it was not something Shuixu would doubt at this time. Since Xue Pan dared to promise, this matter would naturally be left to him.

"Brother Xue's talent and virtue are indeed extraordinary! Were you trying to be modest with me before? Looking at these things, I feel that I can even be the Minister of the Ministry of Finance."

"Hahaha, Brother Shui thinks too highly of me. How can I succeed at my age?"

"Then what's Brother Xue's plan?"

"Now that the Supreme Emperor is here, he can make a big difference. Brother Xue originally worked in the Ministry of Household Affairs, and now it is not impossible to run it well. Even if you can't become a minister, you can start as a doctor and a minor official. Your uncle Jia Jia Sir, don’t you start from the bottom?”

Xue Pan knew that this was Shuiluo's layout, and wanted Xue Pan to take a real job in the household department. But Xue Pan was too lazy to deal with the civil officials. They made too many twists and turns, which was not as pleasant as the generals, so he refused directly.

"Brother Shui, it's not that I'm too ambitious, but that I don't have this ambition..."

"Is it possible that you just love doing business?"

Shui Rong frowned and felt it was a pity. He has just recognized this little brother, and he dares not to listen to him.

"No, although my family has been in business for generations, I don't have such a future."

"Then you are..."

"Brother Shui, let me put it this way, I will wait until your work is completed and I will become a military commander."

"General?"

Xue Pan's words were completely beyond Shui Rong's expectation. He looked Xue Pan up and down and was really shocked again.

"Yes, my ancestors also entered military camps. Now I love military affairs even more. If you ask me to go..."

"It's inappropriate, it's inappropriate." Shui Rong frowned, it was easy for people to die on this battlefield. If Xue Pan came to him and had such an official position, no one else would dare to seek refuge with him.

"Brother Xue has never experienced war, do you think this is fun? I went there once with my father, and I really don't want to go there a second time! Swords have no eyes on the battlefield. Do you think military merit is so easy to earn?"

"I know."

Xue Pan corrected his attitude.

"I don't plan to become a general right away. This is serious harm to people! I just want to start as a centurion, I am willing to do so. I only want to go where I can kill the enemy!"

Shui Rong looked into Xue Pan's eyes and found that he was not lying, let alone acting on a whim. This love for talent moved, and people became serious.

"In this case, I won't stop brother Xue from his ambition. I'll go to my martial arts training ground later and ask my men to train you. Then I want to see how well you can save your life."

"Good! Great!"

Xue Pan cheered and walked over to give Shuirong a toast.

The reason why this ancient military camp was not easy to mess with was because the people in power were unreliable. And the "lord" he chose is probably the most reliable one.

As for the demonic aura in Xue Pan, it would only become more powerful when he went to places with strong murderous aura. He believed that he would definitely win.

"Hahahaha, you!"

Seeing him like this, Shui Rong felt even more relieved.

Xue Pan's duplicitous intelligence really made Shui Rong uneasy. But looking at him like this, he does have the childishness of a boy.

His style is the unique hot-bloodedness of young people, which is consistent with Xue Pan's age.

It seems that he does have some talents, but he is resistant to strategy. It seems that the death of Xue's father really frightened Xue Pan.

Judging from his performance today, there must be someone behind the scenes helping him make suggestions.

But this strategy is a bit childish and not given by an old man. It seems like there is a very smart young man guiding Xue Pan behind his back!

"By the way, I heard that your sister came to Beijing with you to be elected. Is the problem solved now?"

Shui Rong suddenly remembered what the secret guard said, saying that Xue Pan's sister, Xue Xiaomei, was extremely smart.

"No! I was scolded by my mother again this morning. So I want to come forward as soon as possible and earn military merit for my sister."

Xue Pan said with a sad face.
