As Fang Chen thought, the seven families in the county and city all had predetermined cooperation forces, and after entering the city, they scattered and headed straight for the target.

The three major families, as well as two gentry members who did not join the Chamber of Commerce and had acquired great warriors, both the Wei family and the Huo family welcomed distinguished guests.

The choice of cooperation forces among the seven families is naturally not a random choice. Many of the gentry circles in one county are connected to each other, and they are inevitably in business and officialdom.

There are factions in the officialdom and partners in business. These are the natural cooperative forces chosen by the seven companies.

Of course, each Fuyu family has its own interests, and everyone wants to maximize their interests. If the alliance can be reached, it may not be as expected of the Qi family. But the current situation is no longer possible for them to choose, and cooperation with the Qi family has become the best result.

This is something Fang Chen himself cannot refuse. If the interests are not mentioned, the seven families will enter the port, and Fuyu will no longer be an era where he has the final say in his acquired and perfect decisions. The seven families have great power and innate power, so they cannot compete at all.

The cooperation with Zhong and Liu families is also considered a temporary shelter.

In fact, the earliest choice of the two families was not him, but the Zhong and Liu families in Tieshan, the same clan branch, and naturally they are their own people.

However, the influence of the two branches is too far apart, and it has no impact on the most important county town. What's more troublesome is that when we propose going to sea, the identities of the two families have become embarrassing, and even the influence of the county has been greatly weakened.

Only then did the two families in the county and city choose Fang Chen.

The seven families have different visits, some are early and some are late, but no matter whether they come out sooner or later, they always have a smile on their faces, and they obviously got the desired results.

Shortly after the Wei family came out of the Fuyu Wei family in the county town, a figure quickly met him and said something to the people of the Wei family with a respectful expression. The person led by the Wei family pondered for a moment, nodded, gave a few instructions, and then led several people to go straight out of the city with them.

After leaving the city, I ran westward, and the route was the direction of Miaojiabao.

The Wei family's first choice is the Wei family, which has business dealings, but the Wei family is just an ordinary family, not as good as the top forces, and its influence is far less than that of the three major families. It is even a boy named Fang who is not a gentry. The only advantage is that the Wei family's power is in the city, which is very convenient for them to act.

Of course they knew that although their strength was not weaker than that of the Wei family, they had few contacts with the county town, had relatively distant relationships, and had influence under the county, so they naturally didn't think much about it.

But not long ago, Miaojiabao suddenly sent a letter to their Wei family, which was mostly intended to surrender. At this time, someone was sent to wait for invitation, so naturally he had to go and see it. There was a Wei family in the county, and if the county had a large family help, the Wei family would be more convenient for their actions.

……………………

The next morning, Fang Chen found Luo Meng.

"Gangmaster!"

"Prevent Guardian Luo, you can prepare and take people to the county town."

Luo Meng raised his head in surprise and said, "Let's go again? Gang leader, this is probably inappropriate, not long ago..."

Fang Chen raised his hand to interrupt him and smiled and said, "It's okay. Yesterday, the Liu family visited the county town clock and I believe you know that I have reached a cooperation with the two companies. There are two companies on the way as insurance. There are no need to worry. When traveling, the two companies will also send people to accompany you."

Luo Meng's expression relaxed and he laughed, "Then there is no problem. Gang leader, this is not that I, Luo, is that I can't stand it. If I lose another batch of goods, I will lose a lot."

The arrival of the two families yesterday was quite a bit of a sudden. Luo Meng certainly knew it. He even asked Ma Dachang to be on guard not far from the Zhongyi Hall, and once he turned against him, he would come out.

Fang Chen also learned about Luo Meng's actions and finally confirmed that this guy was not the coward in his imagination. He immediately changed his mind and trusted him a little more.

"There is a slight difference between going to the county town this time and last time. You will bring 100,000 taels of silver directly. When you arrive in the county town, you will buy horses and buy as much as you can. Then there will be pigs and cattle and other animals. The two companies will help you buy them. You don't need to find them in person. The remaining silver will be purchased by the two companies. The list will be given to you before departure."

"100,000 taels?" Luo took a deep breath. This was almost half of the property in the gang. The gang leader was so big. He swallowed and said carefully: "Gang leader, then you have to bring those merchants this time? Also, the purchase volume this time is quite large, so the carriages are probably a bit insufficient!"

After destroying the Iron Fist Gang and the Lingser Gate, they had obtained a lot of carriages, especially the Lingser Gate often traveled to the county town to carry goods, and the two totaled almost 200. However, in the previous round of attacks, all the goods were lost, and more than a hundred large cars brought were also lost. Now there are only dozens of them left in the gang.

Fang Chen smiled. If there were only these cars and horses, how could he dare to boast about Zhong and Liu's family? Even the number of 300 he reported was still a conservative statement.

"You go to the car dealer Qi Fugui, and let him empty all the carriages and horses. The merchants will not bring them this time. I will ask them to borrow carriages and horses from three towns and seven families, Changjiabao, and there are also many carriages and horses close to them. At that time, they will borrow all of them. I believe that five or six hundred carriages and horses can still be collected. The most important thing for this purchase is to be fast, buy them all, and return immediately."

"Okay, the carriage and horses are in hand, I'll set off immediately." Luo Meng was very straightforward and responded.

After Luo Meng left, Fang Chen's face turned cold, "Sun Family! Master Buddha's things will sooner or later, you will need to spit out the leather and bones!"

The seven families in the county town, Zhong, Liu, Wei, Tong, Zhu, Wang, Sun, and the Sun family are the ones behind the last attack on the convoy, which Zhong Boming said in person.

Now that the two sides have just started to cooperate, the Zhong and Liu families have just arrived in Fuyu, and their foothold is unstable. It is when Baba needs a lot of help, and the possibility of cheating him is extremely low. Of course, he will not draw conclusions, but it will become much easier to investigate with a target. Once it is verified... there is nothing we can do for the time being.

Fang Chen rubbed his forehead, his strength! Next, he needs to practice the Thirteen Horizontals as soon as possible!

……………………

Fang Chen is now very famous in Fuyu. In a word, the four streets and three yards of the city immediately gathered in the main hall, six towns, one township and one fort in the county, and the carriages and horses were also sent to the city continuously, and soon formed a huge convoy.

The number was far beyond Fang Chen's expectations, and it actually exceeded 1,000 vehicles.

The so-called six towns, one town and one fort, in addition to Wanghai, Yongping and Tieshan towns, there are also Anfeng Town and Shaping Town, which are also the eight towns of Qingcang. One fort is Changjiabao, and the other towns are Dadong Township and Nanshui Town, which are close to Changjiabao.

Like Changjiabao, the three towns in this town have joined the Chamber of Commerce. As Shaping Town and Anfeng Town are close to the three towns, there are no gentry in the towns, so it is clear that the carriages and horses are the leader of the square family.

As for the eight towns and three towns, there are all gentry and their own interests, and they are all waiting and watching.

Fang Chen thought for a moment and realized that not every town is like looking at the sea, but just a town. Many towns have villages, and some villages also have landlords and wealth, and landlords also have to pay taxes and food, and there are some carriages and horses.

After being borrowed by this big man Fang Chen, he is naturally happy to be a favor.

Therefore, every township has collected hundreds of cars and horses, and the loans from the city are not surprising at all.

"Two seniors, after going to sea, I wonder if these cars and horses are enough?" Fang Chen deliberately found Zhong Boming and Liu Hongxuan to brighten his muscles, but this muscle is only influence, not force.

The two of them were stunned when they saw such a huge convoy.

Thousands of carriages and horses are not decimal numbers, and even their families are only this number, but the two families have big businesses and big stalls. Especially in the city of Paozhou, the carriages and horses needed are not decimal numbers, so Fuyu has only collected 300 carriages and horses.

After all, cars are easy to build, but horses are not easy to raise. A horse's appetite is almost comparable to that of an internal breathing warrior. When there is no need, who would raise an extra group of big eaters?

The horses in the south are not that easy to expand the fleet immediately now. If you want to increase it, you can only buy horses slowly. I am afraid that you have to wait until the port is built and the fleet is formed to collect a certain number.

The two of them came to their senses and looked at Fang Chen in surprise. They remembered that what Fang Chen said before was three hundred cars and horses, but in just a few days, they had gathered a convoy of thousands. If they could get the help of this convoy, the family would save a lot of effort and increase the transportation of goods several times.

This made them feel that Fang Chen was even more respectful. They originally asked Fang Chen to cooperate with him, but they expected that he would have a great influence in Fuyu. But before coming, they were still suspicious, worried that Fang Chen was an emerging force and not a genius, and had a great reputation, but lacked strength and influence.

After all, the county town is not close to Fuyu, and it is very inconvenient to mobilize personnel and materials. In addition, some court restrictions are restricted, so cooperation with local forces is needed.

If they are just famous and have a small face, they will be a little troublesome. They are only close to Tieshan in Fuyu, but the influence of the two companies has been greatly reduced, so they will inevitably have to find some forces to cooperate with each other.

Fortunately, yesterday's negotiations and understanding allowed them to dispel their doubts. No matter what the impact of the Fang family is, the manpower and material resources they have can meet the current needs of the two companies.

But today I found that Fang Chen seemed to be underestimating it. In such a remote county, thousands of carriages were not so easy to get together. They probably might not be able to do it even if they were the so-called three major families.

The two looked at each other and showed joy. It seemed that choosing to cooperate with the Fang family was really right!

Just as Zhong Boming was about to say something, a gang member who was guarding the gate of the main hall suddenly rushed over, "Report! The gang leader, Changshui Town, Xishan Town, and Baoxin Town brought more than 300 cars and horses, saying that it was handed over to the gang leader for use, and the heads of the three towns also came with him and were waiting outside the door!"

Fang Chen's eyes lit up, he glanced at Zhong quietly, and Liu and the others were stunned again when they saw them.

Before this was over, another person came soon and said loudly: "Report! The gang leader, Lujiabao, Letian Township, and the water town brought more than 400 cars and horses and handed over to the gang leader for use. The gang leader and the two villages also came to visit together and were waiting outside the door!"
Chapter completed!
