Chapter 792 Negotiation

Night, Changfeng Inn.

The arrival of the Fan family and the others was naturally within Li Ling's expectations, because he knew that the other party had no other choice in this game.

However, he was not as arrogant as Fan Changyuan and the others imagined. Instead, he acted quite dull and had some politeness. After letting the person into the house, he smiled and said, "Since you are here to see me, you must have already known your situation?"

"Hmph, you are so insidious. I, Fan Changyuan, have indeed lost this time!"

"Why, Mr. Fan Liu still thinks you are innocent and kind, and am I the evildoer who conspires to murder people?" Li Ling did not show anger because of the other party's words, and poured tea for the few people with a smile.

"Isn't it? If you hadn't used those methods to cause a run in my money house, we wouldn't have..." Fan Changyuan said this, and suddenly stopped under Li Ling's gaze, "Tell me, what are your plans?"

"I think you are wrong in the order of things? You Fan's family is eager to use the money and grain in their hands to seize people's land and property first, so I will take action." Li Ling looked at Fan Changyuan and Fan Changguang coldly, "Your brother Fan Changyue is still in Suizhou. He tried every means to raise the price of grain and exchange grain for land. Compared with what you did in Suizhou, my little tricks on your money house are really nothing. After all, I cannot let your family be destroyed and your Fan family can't even live a life."

"..." Fan Changyuan was speechless. He wanted to say that this was business, a business, but after thinking about it, the sharpness in front of such a statement could also be brought, so he no longer said it. However, Fan Changguang finally smiled at this time and said, "Boss Ling, as the saying goes, enemies should be resolved rather than to make a deal. We and the merchants cannot act irritably. Since you deliberately leave words to invite us to come, you can probably discuss it. Why not just tell your request and let us make a decision again, what?"

Li Ling smiled, and this person was calmer than Fan Changyuan, and then said, "Yes, I leave my words to leave room for my own room. I don't want to really do anything. Your Fan family is big, and even if the money house can't be managed, it can be made up for it from other places. But the people of Suizhou are different. Once the food price is really high enough to reach them, they are forced to sell the land, houses and houses they rely on for their livelihood, I am afraid that many people will be displaced and even their lives cannot be saved.

"So I only have one requirement to meet you today, give up the transaction in Suizhou, sell the grain at a fair price, and then stop making the point. As long as your Fan family can do this, I can guarantee that your money house will also survive this storm, how about it?"

"Ha... Just by your few words, let me withdraw from my Fan family and let us give up our previous investment?" Fan Changyuan sneered immediately. Although the matter in Suizhou had nothing to do with him, it was obvious that he could not do this for the family.

Li Ling could see that the pressure he put on him was not enough, so he sneered back and said, "Master Fan Liu, you haven't understood your real situation yet - today's run is just the beginning. When the news of your Fan family's insufficient money spreads out, more people will come to exchange for the money tomorrow. Once you cannot satisfy them, people's panic will continue to increase until it affects other industries. You have restaurants, car dealers, and many shops. These industries are well-known. Once the people start to panic, they feel that they can no longer get their own money back from the money house. Someone reminds them to ask them to go to industries that also belong to your Fan family to ask for debts. What will happen next?

"If some ulterior motives are mixed in here, even attacking your houses and property, and destroying your property with violence, can you resist? Don't expect any yamen to protect you. At that time, the first thing the officials in the yamen should do is to calm the public's grievances. As long as the anger of the people can be calmed down, what is the point of sacrifice of you, the Fan family?

"Of course, this may be the worst result. Maybe your Fan family will bow their heads in time before this, sell the property in the family to urgently remedy it and calm public anger. But in this way, your Fan family is safe, but where is your Fan Liu Master?

"After the storm, everyone will push the mistakes to you, because it was the money house you managed that made the people send their anger to the entire Fan family. At that time, no one will care whether you have made contributions to the family. Those who covet your position will not mind stepping on you and making you never turn over. And you, Mr. Fan Liu, will also turn from the person in charge of the current family into a sinner or a marginal figure. In this life, you can only be an incompetent person who does nothing and can only rely on others to survive.

"Do you really want to see such a result?"

The last question made Fan Changyuan's body suddenly shake, panic flashed in his eyes, and his face turned pale when Li Ling kept saying the possible. This was obviously what he was most afraid of to happen!

"Don't think that what I'm saying is just scaring you, nor are you afraid to tell you that I have spent money to buy a lot of people before. As long as you don't come today and can't cooperate with me, then tomorrow, many rumors will spread throughout Xiangfan, and then..."

"You ask me to convince everyone in the family and ask them to call Fan Changyue back?" Fan Changyuan finally asked this question after a while of silence. His voice had become extremely hoarse, and his eyes were bleeding due to tension.

Li Ling looked at him and nodded slightly: "When the person comes back, I will sell the food to me, and then the crisis of your Fan family will naturally be eliminated. By the way, in order to show sincerity, I can deposit my 100,000 taels of silver into your money house. I think this will be enough to stabilize the situation."

Fan Changyuan agreed with this. With this 100,000 taels of silver in hand, it was enough to deliver the people's withdrawal of silver. Moreover, as long as the money could be deposited into the store with great fanfare, it would be possible to reverse the people's distrust of their own money house in one fell swoop. Maybe those who are eager to withdraw silver will change their minds.

However, he still had doubts in his heart, not only because of Li Ling, but also because of the other two families. Once he told his family to withdraw from Suizhou, he would have completely offended the Hu and Cai families. By then, the situation might not be better than now.

Li Ling suddenly saw the doubts in his heart, and then smiled and said, "Are you still caring about the so-called loyalty or promises at this point? Don't you think about how the Cai family, who was in Xiangfan, did this when your Fan family encountered this incident? Did they provide help? No, they just cared about their own money houses and never thought about taking out even a tael of silver to help you overcome the difficulties.

"So, there have never been any unchanging allies in the business world, but only interests. And now, the interests of your Fan family are telling you that it is time to choose to part ways with them."

Li Ling said, and took another sip of tea. When the other party looked up thoughtfully, he smiled again: "Also, where did you think I got this large amount of silver when I was dealing with your families in Suizhou? I am not afraid to tell you the truth. This silver was obtained from your families. As for how to do it, you don't have to worry.

"You only need to know a little. I will get more of this kind of silver soon. At that time, using the silver from Suizhou as a bargaining chip, I can have fun with you in Xiangfan. Not only your Fan family, but the Cai family will also pay the corresponding price. And at this time, it will be beneficial to you without any harm. You can even take this opportunity to take a bite on the Cai family and get the benefits that you cannot get from Suizhou from them."

This is no longer sow discord, but instigating the other party to kill each other with the Cai family, the allied. But at this time, the two brothers Fan Changyuan could no longer refute, but looked at the guy who was talking in a panic. They could see that the sharp words in front of them were mostly true. He was indeed laying out a big picture, a big picture that could put all three families into and make them lose all their money!

Of course, more importantly, they knew that they had no better choice. If they didn't follow this path and hold on to the end, then as mentioned before, no matter whether the Fan family would be finished, Fan Changyuan was destined to be finished anyway.

In the face of such a fact, under the pressure of Li Ling's powerful aura, Fan Changyuan could not withstand it for too long. After a long time of silence, he finally said slowly after looking at his brothers: "I can try to convince my family and ask them to call Fan Changyue back, but our losses..."

"This is the price you should pay. You must know that this is my last kindness to you and the last chance I give you. As for the other two companies, you can see, their losses will only be greater than you!" Li Ling did not give him the opportunity to bargain and said immediately.

A tough attitude finally defeated Fan Changyuan's last insistence: "Okay, wait for my news..."

"My patience is limited. At most, until noon tomorrow. If you don't reply, your money house will be waiting to be flattened by the angry people!" Li Ling said, and then gave Li Moyun a wink at the side. The latter understood and quickly walked to the door, opened the door, and made a gesture of seeing off the guests.

After stuttering for a while, the few people didn't say anything more and stood up and left.

It was not until they left the inn that Yang Zhen looked at Li Ling with some uncertainty: "Sir, will they make concessions?"
