Chapter 13: Plan to Raise Money and Generals Meeting

Hearing his Mother sound, Lie Fan stopped hugging the already frozen Ying Yue and turns around to see his mother shocked face with her hand covering her mouth which makes Lie Fan a bit embarrassed as he haven't told his family about his relationship with Ying Yue. Even though he knew his mother and father will approve but Ying Yue is still afraid as she thinks that she is only a maid and her status is not worthy of Him.

True enough hearing Yu Yan's sound, Ying Yue turns pale and hid behind Lie Fan as she was embarrassed but scared at the same time afraid that Yu Yan will not agree to their relationship and force them to separate.

While the two of them thinking about how will Yu Yan react, they saw a big happy smile on Yu Yan's face laughing happily while clapping her hand

Yu Yan: "Finally the two of you are together! Fan'er why do you not tell your mother that you are in a relationship with Ying Yue"

Lie Fan: "Umm Haha sorry Mother, Fan'er forgot to tell you because there are many things that I need to do, you are not angry are you?"

Yu Yan: "What why would mother be angry, Of course, I'm happy that the two of you are finally together! you do not know how much Mother wanted the two of you to be together all this time, Mother doesn't want to push you as you are a big boy, not a Man now so you must have your own choices"

Lie Fan: "Thank You, Mother! Come Yue'er no need to be shy you heard what my mother says, come say hello to your Future Mother in law"

Hearing what Lie Fan said, while Ying Yue is happy in her heart hearing that Yu Yan agrees and even wanted the two of them to be together, she is still shy so slowly she moves out and says hello to Yu Yan

Ying Yue: "Hello Madam thank you for your approval"

Yu Yan: "Haiyahh why do you me call madam, just call me mother from now on okay Yue'er?"

Ying Yue: "Yes Mad- I mean Mother" *Blush*

Watching his Mother and Ying Yue interact makes him smile, happy that Ying Yue is recognized by his mother and can meet Ying Yue openly now. Wannian on the sideline watching all of this doesn't know what happened but seeing her big brother hug Ying Yue makes her run and hug Ying Yue too.

The Four of them spend some warm time together in the garden where Lie Fan was ordered by his mother to take a bath as he just got home from his expedition and to meet her alongside Wannian and Ying Yue in the dining room so that he can fill his belly, His mother ordered the kitchen to make all of Lie Fan favorite food and snacks celebrating the return of her son and the start of the relationship between Lie Fan and Ying Yue.

Lie Fan goes to take a bath while Yu Yan with Ying Yue and Wannian walks toward the dining room to wait for Lie Fan in which Yu Yan talks with Ying Yue, asking her and teasing her that she dares to hide this from her for months even though she wanted this to happen.

Lie Fan enjoys the warm bath that has been prepared for him, spending some time to rest his tired body after a long expedition which reduces the ache his body.

Ending the bath, Lie Fan wears the clean clothes that have been prepared for him and go to the dining room to join his family and Ying Yue there.

Entering the dining room, he saw his mother Wannian, and Ying Yue waiting for him. He joined them and the food is served by the servants, seeing all of it as his favorite food Lie Fan began to eat rapaciously without care for others to satiate his appetite. Yu Yan seeing her son enjoying the food smile happily while serving Wannian and Ying Yue some food.

Yu Yan: "Fan'er after eating let's go to the study and talk about our plan okay?"

Lie Fan: "Okay Mother, I have some new plans that maybe is more fitting to our current situation"

Yu Yan: "That's great, eat slowly Fan'er the food will not go anywhere"

After eating, Lie Fan and his mother go the study to discuss their plan that Lie Fan told his mother before going on his expedition

Yu Yan: "Fan'er mother already see your schematics of the Copper Mirror and Wine, Mother thinks it is feasible but we need money while almost all of our money is now invested in rebuilding mothers caravan"

Lie Fan: "About the funds don't worry Mother, I have some sums of money that was taken from the bandits we can use that as our starting fund to invest it. For the wine, as we have our wine distillery we just need to invest in people we trust and the ingredients, for the tavern or restaurant we can just buy a modest one and make it owned by our clan so that all the profits directly go to us."

Yu Yan: "That's a great idea Fan'er, about the copper mirror we need copper and Huai'An copper supply is not many so we need to buy some copper but those merchants give pretty hefty price"

Lie Fan: "We can send some people to search for copper mines around Huai'An, I see some potential copper supply when Im looking for bandits around Huai'An. I suggest that we buy some small workshop and smithy making it our own to produce and sell the mirror ourselves, we can brand them as state property so other merchants will think twice to undermine our business"

Yu Yan: "Okay Fan'er Mother agrees with what you just said, give Mother the area you think there is some copper supply so we can mine them and Mother will begin to buy the ingredients we needed to make the wine and buy mediocre taverns and restaurants so we can raise money to fund the mining and smithy operation for the mirror."

Lie Fan: "Okay Mother I will send a map with the locations I think there is some copper supply we can mine and will the Chao Bai send the money we got from the bandits to you"

Lie Fan and Yu Yan continue discussing their project brainstorming ideas and loopholes they can use to their advantage, especially in the law, they were discussing for almost 2 hours when they stopped as they were informed that Lie Shang is back and looking for Lie Fan

Going out of the study, Lie Fan goes toward the meeting room where Lie Shang greeted important guests and friends that came to visit him in his mansion, Lie Fan and His Mother have agreed that they will inform Lie Shang of the plan so that he can help them to regulate some laws that at least protected their business.

Arriving at the meeting room, Lie Fan saw that Lie Shang is receiving the Military Commanders of Huai'An army from the Military, City Guards, and Navy. They saw Ling Dao, Lie Shang's right-hand man, and can see that they were having some heavy and serious discussion judging from the body language and heavy atmosphere in the room

Lie Shang: "Ah My Son has arrived, come sit here beside me"

Hearing what Lie Shang said, all the Commanders in the room get up and salute the two of them in which Lie Fan tell them to be at ease and not let Him disturb what they were doing then goes to take his seat.

Lie Shang: "Fan'er, Father has already informed the Commanders of what you have informed Father about the Yellow Turbans. We all agree that because you were the one who found out the real situation, we wanted to include you in our discussion on how to counter the growing threat of the yellow turbans as you were the one most informed here than us"

Lie Fan: "Lie Fan Thanks Father and all Commanders here for your trust in me, I will help and share all information that I know of"

Lie Fan began to share some Yellow Turbans Information that he knows of, not too many to not make others suspicious as to how interrogating low ranked soldier he can get this much information.

He tells them the name of the leader of the Movement in which Zhang Jiao assisted by his brother Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, there's around 7.500 Yellow Turbans around Huai'An scattered to small and big groups which were a massive threat as Huai'An only have 3.000 soldiers, 250 City Guards, and 300 Marines (Navy Soldiers) in which their numbers is almost 2x time of the defenders if they decide to group up and attack Huai'An

He also told them about the brutality he witnessed and how the yellow turbans are using Heaven doesn't support the Han Dynasty anymore as a pretext to make common people join his cause which was supported by the condition of the Han Empire now which famine and hunger happened across the country and the Emperor doesn't care about his people
