Even if there are some hidden worries about the future work, Fan Hongdao will not be stupid enough to say that he is disappointed, so this banquet can be regarded as a joy for the guests and hosts.
When it was over, it was already afternoon, and Yang Chaofeng ordered his servants to clean up the room and prepare for Fan Hongdao to move in. And Fan Hongdao still has to go back to the Rugui inn, pack his luggage and stay in the inn for another night, and officially go to Yang's house tomorrow to report.
On the way back to the inn, Wang Chuancai, the shopkeeper of Wang Chuancai, walked with Fan Hongdao, and after today's interview, the relationship between the two is a little more familiar. Shopkeeper Wang has completely lost the mind to control Fan Hongdao, he is very self-aware, and now he only hopes that Fan Hongdao can read his good.
"Our proprietor seems to be an ambitious figure. Of course, this sentence was said by Fan Hongdao, and the shopkeeper Wang was not wild enough to dare to evaluate his boss like this.
Although Shopkeeper Wang was already very accustomed to Fan Hongdao's presumptuousness, he couldn't help but remind: "You can't talk like this, what does it mean to be ambitious? This word is too inappropriate." ”
Fan Hongdao responded with a rare kindness: "Okay, then change the word, be ambitious." ”
Shopkeeper Wang lost his temper and chewed words with Fan Hongdao, and only asked curiously: "How do you see it?" ”
Fan Hongdao replied: "I have dedicated a long poem describing the prosperous event of the family of the very rich, if you are a person who is small and prosperous, and does not want to make progress, you will not have any superfluous thoughts about this poem." However, the owner showed a strong yearning and feeling, and was even willing to choose me with this poem, which is a manifestation of ambition. ”
Shopkeeper Wang asked again: "Dare to ask Mr. Fan, what is your ambition?" Fan Hongdao did not answer, but asked rhetorically: "What is the ambition of Shopkeeper Wang?"
"I can't compare with you, I can be the shopkeeper of the Yang family's silk shop, or the Yang family's foreign steward will be content. "The shopkeeper Wang said very truthfully.
That night at the Rugui Inn, Shopkeeper Wang accompanied Fan Hongdao for another meal. Fan Hongdao carefully asked the shopkeeper about the situation of the Yang family's inner house, and learned that Yang Chaofeng had a wife, two concubines, two sons and two daughters.
Two of the daughters are already married, needless to say; of the two sons, the eldest son is weak and young, and he is studying business in the shop, and will probably inherit the property in the future; and the younger son is only five or six years old, and Yang Chaofeng plans to let him study and try it.
After the meal, they rested separately and did not say anything all night. The next day, Fan Hongdao said goodbye to the Rugui inn and came to the Yang family's mansion with a cage on his back.
The layout of the Yang family's house is divided into two rooms, and Fan Hongdao naturally can't live in the backyard, so Yang Chaofeng cleaned up a slightly larger room in the side yard of the vestibule, and divided it into two rooms inside and outside with a screen, and provided Fan Hongdao with a residence.
There is a desk and chair on the outside, which can be used as a study, and a bed is placed in the inner room, which is used as a bedroom, and there is no extra furnishings. The Yang family is not a rich family after all, everything is simple and practical.
Fan Hongdao put his luggage on the bedside counter, then walked around inside and out, and finally returned to the chair in the room to sit down, at this time his mood was very calm and calm, and even a little leisurely and comfortable after relaxing.
These days, I live in an inn with no money, and the sense of crisis lingers. It can be said that from the time he opened his eyes after crossing to yesterday, he Fan Hongdao has always struggled with the problem of survival.
Now I finally have a place to live temporarily, at least I don't have to worry about hunger and cold, and I don't have to worry about being desperate and going to the streets to beg for a living, so my dignity will be lost.
Now that survival is guaranteed, it's time to think about the future direction, as a traverser, and the predecessor is based on Xiucai, you can't just be satisfied with twenty taels of silver a year, right?
Fan Hongdao was a half-baked history lover who benefited from the Ming Dynasty fever on the Internet and had a little understanding of the history of the Ming Dynasty. Now that I'm idle, the thoughts in my brain involuntarily begin to fly and diverge-
It is now the thirteenth year of Wanli, and the emperor is of course the son of Wanli. The most famous thing about this son of heaven is that he has not seen the minister for decades, and it is estimated that he will not have much chance to meet.
As for the favored Concubine Zheng and the relatives of the Zheng family, it is better not to provoke you, a scholar. In the next 20 or 30 years, the struggle for the national capital is about to begin, and it is necessary to grasp the position well and not get too deep.
The power of the late former first assistant Zhang Juzheng was cleaned up, and Zhang Siwei, the Shanxi tycoon, inherited the glorious tradition of the cabinet, and tried his best to remove Zhang Juzheng's influence, but in the end he cheapened others.
Today's first assistant should be Shen Shixing, a steady politician who should be able to work for six or seven years before dying well. If you have the opportunity, you should hug this Shen Xianggong's thigh, at least you won't be hurt by the traps.
Who is the first assistant behind Shen Shixing? It seems to be Wang Xijue, speaking of which Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue are both from Suzhou, and he is from Nanjing, and he also belongs to Nanzhili, can he climb the relationship with his fellow villagers?
By the way, the famous Donglin Party may be in a state where Xiaohe is only showing his sharp corners at this time, and party leaders such as Gu Xiancheng and Shen Li should have already made their mark in the political arena.
Also, the famous Wanli Three Great Expeditions should appear in a few years, and they still have a chance to catch up.
Speaking of martial arts, Liaodong General Li Chengliang should be at his peak at present, should he find an opportunity to kill Nurhachi, who was kneeling and licking Li Chengliang? I wonder if this will be able to solve the future major trouble once and for all?
Fan Hongdao closed his eyes and recuperated, the more he thought about the future, the more he thought about it, and he had a feeling of not knowing where to start.
In the end, Fan Hongdao opened his eyes again, looked up to the sky and sighed: It is really not an easy thing to hold the general trend of the world and have an overview of all directions.
Someone suddenly heard outside the door, and then someone opened the curtain and came in, which made Fan Hongdao very dissatisfied.
This place is his Fan Hongdao's apartment, and if others want to come in, it stands to reason that they must first say hello, such as shouting or knocking on the door outside, and they can only come in after consent. If you are not invited, it is extremely rude.
Fan Hongdao raised his eyes to see that the person who came was a middle-aged man with a yellow and thin face and two beards. Seeing him raise his hand again, it was considered a salute, "Let's do miscellaneous work in the front yard of the Yang family, and our name is Yang Fu." The steward's instructions asked us to clean Mr. Fan's room every day, and boil water and deliver water by the way. ”
Fan Hongdao waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about the rules first, next time I can only come in after my permission, don't come in so arbitrarily." ”
The handyman lowered his face, full of unhappy looks, and said to himself: "But like us, they are all paid by the Yang family, and what kind of stinky shelves are put up." ”
Fan Hongdao's heart was filled with a faint sense of loss. What Shoufu Shen Shixing, what Zheng Guifei, what Donglin Party, what Nurhachi, thinking too much, now dealing with himself is this kind of muddy person.
At this time, I suddenly heard someone outside shouting: "It's a big deal!
