Chapter 334 Revisiting Yang City
The journey home is always painful and happy. The phrase "painful and happy" has been given a lot of room for imagination. Many people will think of that exciting night and the comfort of that moment in that night. , and this process is the same as the journey home.

After a tiring journey all the way, it is just for the momentary happiness when we go home and meet each other. Perhaps this is the expectation hidden behind countless struggles and blood and tears in life.

Of course, Chen Xiaofan enjoys the journey home. On his left is Aster and on his right is Leng Shuanger, and there is a Luyi in his body. There are beauties in his body and heart. How can such a journey be boring?Can you work hard?

After more than 20 days of traveling, Chen Xiaofan and the others came to Yangcheng. They first found the governor's mansion and met the governor Yang Xiuwen.

Chen Xiaofan put his badge and letters on the ground, and soon the door of the governor's mansion was opened, and Yang Xiuwen came out to greet him in official robes, leading the chief minister Chen Tonggu.

After some formalities, everyone entered the Governor's Mansion. This was the first time Chen Xiaofan entered the Governor's Mansion. Although it was not a revisit of the old place, it still had a special feeling in his heart.

Chen Xiaofan thought of all the past, thought of Ouyang Yuan, thought of Ouyang Kang, he turned his head and smiled at Zi Wan, Zi Wan also smiled, but the smile was a bit bitter, she sighed in a low voice: "Time flies so fast!"

Chen Xiaofan replied: "Yes, it would be great if life was just like the first time we met."

Yang Xiuwen interjected with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Chen understood the warmth and coldness of the world at a young age. No wonder he has such an achievement at such a young age!"

"Achievements? Master Yang has been praised, what achievements do I have?"

After hearing Chen Xiaofan's words, Chen Tonggu thought he was a hypocrite. He thought that he was only a long history at his age, and he was inferior to Chen Xiaofan in terms of official position.

He said with some resentment: "Master Chen is really overmodest! Master Chen is now the supervisor of the Overwatch Council, together with the guardian of the General Academy of Orthodox Education, and now he has been entrusted with an important task of dispatching strategic materials from the two states. If Mr. Chen can't be regarded as young and promising, then my old bones are really worthless."

"Tonggu must not be rude!" Yang Xiuwen scolded in a low voice.

Chen Xiaofan smiled slightly and said: "Master Yang doesn't have to be like this. Speaking of which, Mr. Chen and I are old acquaintances. When my father-in-law was here, he respected Mr. Chen very much, so Mr. Chen is also my elder."

Chen Tonggu hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Your Excellency, you can't do that. It's unreasonable for you to call a subordinate like this. What Master Yang taught you just now is that you were rude just now. Please forgive me."

Chen Xiaofan helped Chen Tonggu up and said, "Uncle Chen, you are welcome!"

Chen Tonggu understood what Chen Xiaofan meant, and was very moved in his heart. He changed his words and said, "Young Master Chen, you are being polite."

Yang Xiuwen is an old official, he immediately said: "Today we will follow the same way as the official, so as not to cause trouble, I wonder what Mr. Chen thinks?"

Chen Xiaofan clasped his hands and said: "What Uncle Yang said is, Xiaofan is worse than obeying my orders, Uncle Yang and Uncle Chen, you can just call me Xiaofan, don't be twisted by Mrs. Chen!"

They started chatting one sentence at a time, and the conversation became a bit humane, no longer the cold look in the officialdom, and Yang Xiuwen was very happy, after all, for a rising star like Chen Xiaofan, Of course he has a heart for friendship.

While talking, everyone had already arrived in a room, Yang Xiuwen said: "Master Chen, please sit down, everyone, let's sit down and chat."

Although he said that he did not follow the rules of the officialdom, Yang Xiuwen arranged for Chen Xiaofan and the others to sit down according to the rules of the officialdom. Rules are often so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and things that are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people will not make people feel twisted ,

So Chen Xiaofan and the three of them sat very comfortably.

While drinking tea, Chen Xiaofan and Yang Xiuwen started talking and laughing, and the relationship between the two became much closer. After finishing the polite words that should be said, Yang Xiuwen felt that it was time to start talking about serious matters.

Yang Xiuwen said: "Nephew Xiaofan, I have asked someone to sort out the money and food in Yangquan Prefecture's inventory. I estimate that it only takes five or six more days to finish sorting it out. At that time, I will wait for my nephew's army to arrive. The transfer can start."

Chen Xiaofan had a friendly expression on his face, as if the two were really close friends who had known each other for many years, and he said: "To tell you the truth, Uncle Yang, I have to go to Xining Prefecture to collect a certain amount of supplies first, and then bring the supplies here together when I come back." Going back to Beijing, but this time it’s just the three of us, because the war is urgent, so the capital is seriously short of manpower.”

"But how can the three of you transport these materials away? I know that Nephew Xiaofan has a profound realm, but it's hard for the three of you to be safe!" Chen Tonggu said bluntly.

Chen Xiaofan said with a smile: "So Xiaofan, I have the cheek to think of my two uncles to help me find a way."

Yang Xiuwen finally understood at this time, Chen Xiaofan started to get close to him as soon as he entered the door and met him, he said with a wry smile: "Xiaofan, it's not that I won't help you, but the available soldiers from Yangquan Prefecture have been transferred to Beiyu Prefecture I really can't spare the manpower to escort it."

"Uncle Yang, can't we hire some people? There are quite a few beast hunters in Yangquan Prefecture!"

Yang Xiuwen's eyes lit up and he said: "It turns out that my nephew Xiaofan has enough money, so it's easy to say, I'll help you to recruit people right away, Tonggu, immediately~"

Chen Xiaofan interrupted Yang Xiuwen's words with a dry cough, he said: "Uncle Yang, you misunderstood the meaning."

"Misunderstanding?" Yang Xiuwen looked puzzled.

Chen Xiaofan bit the bullet and said, "I'm Uncle Yang, can you lend me some money and let me hire some people to deliver it?"

As soon as Yang Xiuwen drank the tea in his mouth, he almost spit it out. He wiped his mouth and said, "Xiaofan, I am a crowd of incorruptible people. You should know that in the Overwatch Council. I have money to lend you!? If you talk about the money in the treasury, except for the necessary expenses, all of them have been sealed up and ready to be transported to the capital."

Chen Xiaofan thought to himself: "It seems that Mr. Yang can't pull out his hair here, so we must find another way."

So he said: "Uncle Yang, of course Xiaofan knows that you are clean and honest, so it's not because I have no choice but to ask you for help."

At this time, Chen Tonggu said: "Xiaofan, I'm going to give you a suggestion, I don't know if it's suitable, if you think it's not suitable, just take it as me being stupid."

"Uncle Chen, please don't say that, you are also thinking about Xiao Fan and Huang Chao, you say it!"

Chen Tonggu was very impressed with the hat Chen Xiaofan put on him, he said with a smile: "Xiaofan, you have a high reputation among the hunters in Yangquan Prefecture, and many people are grateful for saving Nan'an City from danger. You, so I think you can go to Nan'an City and gather some people, I don't think it's a big problem."

Of course Chen Xiaofan knew that he could go to Nan'an City for help, and also knew that there were many people willing to help him, but for some reason, he felt a little reluctant in his heart. He hoped that the people he knew there could live there peacefully.

Chen Xiaofan didn't know if these people would be requisitioned because of the needs of the war if they followed him into the capital, Chen Xiaofan's calculations were a little narrow and selfish!But it showed his true feelings.

True love is always narrow!It's all selfish~!

Chen Xiaofan's face was not affected by the thoughts in his heart, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Uncle Chen, for your enlightenment, then Xiaofan, I won't delay any longer, don't delay the business and leave."
