Chapter 912: It's not a good stubble
"The first... The first son-in-law? ”
Kou Zhuansha took the holy decree and looked at Guo Dan with wide eyes.
This must be the weirdest decree she had ever seen, and she really couldn't understand it.
Guo Dan nodded and said, "Yes, in business, I have always felt that my concubine is really a very stupid deal, how could your husband do this kind of business." ”
“......?”
Kou Liansha shook her head and said, "I still don't understand. ”
Guo Dan said: "I am handsome and handsome, young and golden, and strong, cold and humorous, almost the spokesperson of the perfect man, if I take a concubine, wouldn't it be cheaper for those women." ”
Kou Liansha looked at Guo Dan blankly.
It's a shameless way to be able to say such things.
But if you think about it, it seems impossible to refute it.
Guo Dan continued: "What's even more hateful is that because of secular etiquette, those women take advantage, and I have to pay a dowry, which is like going to a restaurant to eat, not only do you not give money, but you also have to ask for money for the restaurant, and you don't do this." ”
Kou Zhuansha asked, "What do you mean, if people make you a concubine, they have to give you money?" ”
"It's a must!"
Guo Dan nodded and said: "In this world, Mrs. and I are talented and beautiful, and women are beautiful and men, and it is a match made in heaven for us to get married, but except for Madame, if the rest of the women want to be with me, the first thing is to see if I am willing or not, if I reluctantly agree, then they must pay me a sum of money, so it is fair." ”
Kou Liansha hurriedly said: "Don't get involved with me in this matter, I don't want to be scolded and shameless." ”
Guo Dan was stunned for a moment and said, "Madam, are you shameless in scolding me around the corner?" ”
"I didn't say that."
Kou Zhuansha shook her head and asked again, "But what does this have to do with the first son-in-law?" ”
Guo Dan sighed and said: "This is all to blame on the secular etiquette, according to the secular etiquette, a man has to pay a lot of dowry when he marries a wife and takes a concubine, and he has to pay more, which is very fair for most men, but this is unfair to me, but this is something I can't change, then I can only change the model, the man is the other party to give money, the only privilege of the first son-in-law is that he can be infinitely rich, if anyone wants to stuff his daughter to me, he must give money, otherwise he has to talk about it." ”
Kou Zhuansha rolled her eyes when she heard this, and Guo Dan reiterated her understanding of shamelessness and said, "You are really not ashamed." ”
Guo Dan laughed and said: "The purpose of our businessmen is to lose people and not lose gold, any face is empty, and silver is the eternal truth!" ”
Kou Liansha snorted softly: "Having said so much, it's not to let the eldest sister fulfill the gambling contract, if you can still enter again, then the identity barrier will be cleared." ”
Guo Dan smiled and said, "I really can't hide anything from Mrs. ”
Kou Liansha smiled: "You are really painstaking! ”
"I'm really not a layman." Guo Dan snorted, "In order to play tricks, she first used her uncle to play me, and now she instigated the little uncle to beat me, I will calculate this account clearly with her." ”
As soon as Aunt Xu made such a fuss, Kou Zhuansha was even more embarrassed to say anything, and said, "I don't care about this matter, you can do it yourself." As she spoke, she paused slightly and said, "Do you want me to help you talk to Daddy?" ”
In the face of such an empathetic Mrs., Guo Dan heard mixed feelings and said, "It turns out that Mrs. really doesn't care!" ”
"Husband, even the holy decree is coming, what else can I say."
A touch of cunning flashed in Kou Diansha's eyes, she was really willing for Guo Dan to find a few more women, after all, she had been instilled with the idea of inheritance by Kou Shouxin since she was a child, and she subconsciously thought that this was very important, but the incense of Kou Guo's two families was pressed on her alone, and she was really a little unbearable.
Now it's only two, and that's definitely not enough!
Of course, this is also related to her ability, she has the ability to support herself, she has never been completely dependent on men, she did not say that after Guo Dan showed her true skills, she retreated behind the scenes to be a good wife and mother, Guo Dan is not her sky, not her everything, just her husband, work is also very important to her.
Kou Zhuansha asked again: "Now that Elder Yang and Elder Chen have come to the door, what are you going to do?" ”
Guo Dan frowned: "At present, we still have to stay out of the matter, but the only way to stay out of the matter is to let them not dare to provoke us, from today on, if they respect me, I will pay them back." ”
Kou Zhuansha asked, "Then what about Your Majesty?" ”
Guo Dan said: "There is the Senate in front for His Majesty, so we don't have to worry about it for the time being, let's concentrate on the increase of shares first." ”
Judging from the current situation, this matter is really unhurried.
The entire influential gentry of Beizhili are now all in the Chen Lou in the horse racing area, and it can be said that they have contracted the Chen Lou, of course, there are many people who are willing to pay for this house for them.
It can be seen how fiercely they reacted to this matter.
Chen Building, conference room.
More than thirty old gentry were sitting inside.
"How can you believe the words of that profiteer, even if this matter is not suggested by him, it has a lot to do with him."
An old man blew his beard and glared.
Yang Xuedao: "I don't believe in that profiteer either, but ......!" ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at Chen Mengjue.
Chen Mengjue said: "Guo Dan did not hide it, he supported this reform, but I also believe that the content of the reform has little to do with him, otherwise, Your Majesty does not need to set up a separate Senate, which is what we have to deal with at present."
As for whether to fall out with Guo Dan, I think we have to think twice, with his current financial resources and influence, it is not so easy to deal with him, and we can't afford to deal with the Senate and Yinuo Yaxing at the same time. ”
A person beside him said: "Brother Chen is reasonable, Guo Dan is a businessman in the end, and he is more knowledgeable about current affairs, and he also chose to cooperate with us in the last insurance matter, which shows that he only wants to make money, and does not want to be our enemy, so we don't need to get along with him for the time being." ”
Many of the gentry also nodded slightly.
In the past year or two, Guo Dan has smashed hundreds of thousands of taels at every turn, and it is really casual to buy a township, since Guo Dan has repeatedly emphasized that this is none of his business, then don't recruit him, wake him up, what should he do if he gets up and smokes you.
At this moment, a servant entered the house and said, "Master, Cao Ke, a member of the household department, asks to see him." ”
"Cao Ke?"
Yang Xuetong frowned slightly, "This one sounds very familiar!" ”
Chen Mengjue said: "He is the president of the Senate and the son-in-law of Shen Shixing. ”
Yang Xuedao: "No wonder I think this name is quite familiar. ”
One said: "I heard that he participated in the last reform, and made a lot of efforts, and now His Majesty has made him the president of the Senate, could it be that he has a bad idea." ”
"No, I can't let this kid go." Yang Xuetong snorted.
Chen Mengjue said, "Please come in, Dean Cao." ”
"Yes."
After a while, Cao Ke entered the house and bowed, "The junior Cao Ke has seen the elders. ”
Although he is an official, and all the people are sitting there, but as Chen Mengjue, they have all retired from the court, although they do not hold any important positions in the court, but even if Shen Shixing sees them, he has to give three points, and the seniority is there, and their family has been entrenched in the north for hundreds of years.
Chen Mengjue smiled: "Nephew Cao Xian, how is Shen Shoufu doing lately?" ”
Cao Ke replied: "Uncle Chen's concern, Lord Yue's uncle is all right. ”
"That's good!"
Chen Mengjue nodded, but didn't invite him to sit down, and asked directly: "I don't know what happened when my nephew came to the door today?" ”
Cao Ke was neither humble nor arrogant and said: "The younger generation is here today for the reform, and is favored by the Holy Grace, about the reform, His Majesty has handed it over to the younger generation, and the younger generation heard that the elders have quite a view on this, so they specially came over to ask the elders for advice. ”
"Is it a request or an order?" Yang Xuetong snorted.
"Don't dare."
Cao Ke said: "The juniors are really here to ask you for advice. ”
Yang Xuedao: "Then the old man will teach you, you can't do this thing, treat the scholars well, that is the rule set by the ancestors, how can you say that change will change, this is not only unfilial, but also will chill the hearts of the world's scholars, you yourself are also a reader!" ”
Later, he also pointed to Cao Ke.
Cao Ke said: "In fact, this did not destroy the ancestral system, but only the tax-free privileges were converted into silver and distributed, which was only to prepare for the apportionment of the acre, and the reform was also to reduce the burden of the people, and the rights and interests of the scholars were not harmed." ”
"You're right."
An old man sitting at the end of the sneered and said: "If we can really fold the silver and distribute it, then we will naturally have no opinion, but what do you use to guarantee that the imperial court will send us two pieces of silver every year, and we will build a Luwang Mansion at the beginning, and as a result, the entire Weihui Mansion will be bankrupt, if that situation happens again, who can take care of us at that time." ”
Yang Xuetong also said: "We also know that the treasury is empty, so this is not caused by us, and there is a happy event in the palace casually, but it is hundreds of thousands of taels, and there are not so many scholars in the world combined." There is also the annual tax revenue of the national treasury, half of which is used in the nine towns of the border army, but how much is it in it, you can ask Lord Yuezhang to ask Li Chengliang. The old man wondered, if you don't think of ways from these aspects, you want to target us readers, do you think that we readers are defenseless, so it's easy to bully. ”
These gentry are really not easy to mess with, and a few words will lead the troubles to Wanli, Shen Shixing, and Li Chengliang.
After all, Wanli and Li Chengliang's butts are really unclean.
Cao Ke bowed his hand and said: "The elders are reasonable, the juniors will carefully consider the opinions of the elders, disturbing the elders, the juniors are very sorry, and I hope that the elders will bear with me, and the juniors will leave." ”
Yang Xuetong and the others couldn't help but look at each other.
What about this farewell?
Don't... Did he really come to ask for advice?
Cao Ke got out of Chen Lou and got into the carriage, only to see Shen Shixing sitting inside, smiling and groaning: "How is it?" ”
Cao Ke shook his head and said: "These uncles are really difficult to deal with, and in three or two sentences, you will blame Your Majesty and Lord Yue's father-in-law for the financial difficulties." ”
Shen Shixing was not surprised at all, and said: "The old man has already told you that these old stubborn people can't be beaten or scolded, and they have to be coaxed." So saying, he said to the coachman, "Go back." ”
Cao Ke's body shook slightly, and said: "The son-in-law also knows, but if you want to force them in a hurry, it will only backfire, and the son-in-law will drag them while promoting the new law, but whether it can succeed in the end depends on Guo Dan's side, if Guo Dan can't succeed, abolishing the gentry will cause chaos in the world." ”
Shen Shixing was a little worried: "Then can you hold it off again?" ”
Cao Ke said: "This principle is on our side, fight for the back, and they are the ones who suffer." ”
