Chapter 613: Returning to the hometown to worship the ancestors
The owner of the silver watched through the glass window that another box of white silver in the backyard was loaded into the carriage, and he couldn't help but feel a pain on his face, and couldn't help complaining to Ma Du, "It's only been a few days since it opened, and I've lent out 70,000 taels, Master Hou, you can make me miserable this time." ”
"Don't wronged me!" Ma Du waved his hand and said to Shen Wansan: "This marquis never mentioned you in front of the emperor, it was the emperor himself who thought of you, and you should feel honored to make the emperor think about it from time to time." ”
"Shen doesn't think so, I still hope that the emperor can forget me as soon as possible, I originally thought that the silver was used to build the Yingtian City Wall, but today I want to use my belongings to do business, what if this money can't be recovered."
"Don't worry, don't you have a mortgage on the money you lend that won't be lost!" Ma Du patted his chest, "You are a businessman and you can't see the mystery of this, you won't really think that the emperor is doing good deeds." ”
"Hey...... The emperor is ruthless, I can't see it at the moment, but soon the world's wealth will be in the hands of one person, and you will give the emperor eighty percent of this idea. However, for those businessmen, it is indeed a good deed and a virtue, Shen is also a small starter, and he knows the difficulty of cash and silver turnover, and once he borrows the money of cannibalism, it is difficult to jump out again. ”
Hearing Shen Wansan say this, Ma Du couldn't help but be curious, "Speaking of this donkey rolling money, I'm curious, there are not a few people who are as rich as you in Daming, why no one comes out to open a shop like this, it's not a difficult thing, isn't it good to lower some interest to earn those clean silver?" ”
Shen Wansan said with a smile: "Master Hou, don't be joking, which of those who put the money in the seal has no background, otherwise why would it cause others to die." Shen dared to say that if there was no signboard that used the country name as the name of the store, someone would have smashed this place to pieces a long time ago. ”
"According to what you say, I have offended a lot of people this time, and I may have a lot of political enemies for no reason?"
"Right! But with the emperor covering, what do you have to be afraid of. ”
Paper money was developed from the traditional banking business, in fact, it is just a deposit document, and gradually after being recognized in the market, it began to participate in direct transactions.
If Lao Zhu implements it by administrative means, it may develop faster, but it is not easy to be accepted in his heart, businessmen are not ignorant fat sheep, who move their own interests, they know it in their hearts.
Madu is just used to make it a chronic poison, and with a little sugar to make it taste delicious. Huang Youcai felt that this poison was as sweet as honey at this moment, "God, it's really three points a year!" There is no storage fee for depositing money here, and there is even a three-percent interest, which is really unbelievable! "It can't be faked in black and white, Huang Youcai couldn't help but scream.
"That's right, if the annual interest rate is three cents, don't borrow it if it's too high!" A swarthy and thin young man in front of him had a horizontal nose and vertical eyes, and he didn't give him a few good words from beginning to end.
Huang Youcai didn't care at all, he lent you money at such a low interest, it was difficult to expect a good face to accompany him, "It's not high!" Not high! There is no such interest anywhere else! Huang Youcai looked at the other party, "This little brother, why do I think you are very kind?" ”
"Of course, I used to tutor your little grandson, and I often went to your house to tutor him in arithmetic, and at that time, Master Huang felt that your grandson's arithmetic was making rapid progress, and he rewarded me with ten copper coins."
"It turned out to be you, what is it called, no wonder you look familiar, I haven't seen you for a long time, you have come here for a long time, and the little brother will be the God of Wealth in the future."
"Hey...... I don't want you to be so flattering, I used to be called Lin Da Niu, and my husband changed my name before graduation, and I am now called Lin Jun, the horse of the horse, and Mr. De Qingyan is now the first little person in charge of this bank. ”
Huang Youcai applauded and smiled: "Good name, Master Lin was born with a thousand miles of bones, and the road to Qingyun is galloping." ”
He suddenly lowered his voice, "There are some things I still don't understand, please ask Director Lin for some advice, what is the origin of this bank, it is not the Ma family." ”
Lin Jun, who was still smiling all over his face, suddenly changed his face, "If you have money, you can lend it to you, where is there so much nonsense, don't ask blindly if you shouldn't ask, hurry up and bring the title deed." ”
"Master Lin is teaching a lesson!" Huang Youcai hurriedly pulled out a deed from his sleeve, "This is my deed in Fangshan, some time ago someone asked for 6,000 taels, I didn't sell it, I don't know if it can be used as a mortgage for 4,000 taels, if it's not enough, I still have a title deed in Hangzhou." ”
"Fang Shan's house is right if it is not sold, there is no market, it is indispensable for your benefits to keep it for your children and grandchildren at any time, and you can borrow 10,000 taels of this land deed."
Lin Jun handed the title deed to the middle-aged scribe on the side, and the clerk looked at it and said, "That's right, it's the title deed issued by Tianfu!" ”
At the moment, the contract was signed and pledged, and the contract was in triplicate, Huang Youcai and the bank each took one copy, and the other copy was handed over to the yamen for the record. Other people's trading transactions are witnessed by the tooth shop, and they actually let the yamen as a guarantee, this background is really unfathomable.
The scribe patted the table and said to Huang Youcai, who was stunned: "What are you doing in a daze, pay the pen fee and storage fee of 20 wen, is it possible that you are so poor that you don't even have this money." ”
"Yes, yes!" Huang Youcai casually took out a small piece of broken silver and handed it to the other party, but he didn't expect to find money for him, which made him trust the bank more and more.
When he followed Lin Jun to the warehouse, this trust swelled to the extreme, he had also seen the market, but he had never seen so much money, and the silver was so golden that his eyes were dizzying.
He couldn't help but think in his heart, "Old Meng guessed that eighty percent is right, having so much money must be a royal deal!" ”
If Shen Wansan knew his thoughts, I don't know if he would be so scared that he couldn't sleep.
Ma Du is an unfilial son, except for taking the family to incense the cheap father at four o'clock and eight festivals, he has never returned to his hometown in Suzhou to worship his ancestors. This time, the completion of King Xu's tomb was finally going, Ma Dajia recruited him to the palace and handed him a set of crown clothes, "I don't have my father's bones, so I have to use this set of clothes to make a crown mound for him." ”
Ma Du knelt down and took it, looking at the fine stitches and complex and exquisite patterns on it, he knew that Ma Dajia did it himself, "Little brother is ashamed, I didn't take such an important matter to heart, and I asked Sister Ah to punish him." ”
"You have traveled with the old layman since you were a child and don't understand the world, Song Shuang's child is also heartless, I'm afraid I can't remember, wait until my father's grave and my brother will kowtow a few more times for me." Ma Dajia stretched out his hand to help him up, "Besides, my father's grave didn't cost the court a penny, and it was all used by my brother, and my brother did his duty as a son of man, so there is nothing to feel guilty about." ”
"Sister doesn't need to comfort me, tomorrow I will take the family to my hometown in Suzhou."
"The children are still young, there is no need for such a big battle, it is enough to have Song Shuang, the eldest woman, and the eldest son and grandson, Xiao Biao, and it is not convenient to follow the prince's frame when there are too many people."
"The prince is going too?"
"Well, but the prince went to Zhongdu, where the imperial mausoleum has also been completed, and it is inconvenient for the emperor to leave Beijing at the moment, so he has to let the prince take the kings to pay respects."
It turned out that the Great Hades Palace had been built, and this matter could not be known to Bo Qi, at that time, he heard that Lao Zhu had given the materials dismantled from the Yuan Palace to his grandmother Lao Tzu to repair the grave, and he was sick and bedridden for several days.
The two sisters and brothers chatted for a long time, Ma Du said goodbye and was about to leave, Ma Dajia suddenly said: "Brother, if you meet with the Ma clan, you just need to treat them politely, you don't have to promise anything, they have already been rewarded to the emperor, and my sister and brother don't owe them anything." ”
"When Wang Shaozhuang was strong, he was resolute, smiling, and reluctant, and he was strong and vicious, and when he saw the unjust, he regarded it as an enemy, and then he was less resentful, and he was beaten wantonly, although he was fearless to death, and the villagers did not dare to commit it."
This is one of the few descriptions of Ma Ergong, coupled with his wealthy family, it can be seen that the Ma family is considered strong in the local area, even if he can't protect Ma Ergong, there is no reason for him to take the three little girls into exile in the troubled times, which shows that the indifference of the Ma clansmen is not even as good as Guo Zixing's friend.
Madu then asked, "What if you meet an enemy?" ”
Ma Dajia said with a smile: "Relatives are not relatives, and enemies are not enemies, in the final analysis, it is my father who killed them." ”
It is true that from the other party's point of view, Ma Ergong is the enemy of the family, Ma Du feels that this short-tempered cheap father, if he stayed in Guo Zixing's house at the beginning, and followed Guo Zi to raise troops to rebel in the future, maybe life would be a different situation.
I heard that she was going back to her hometown to worship her ancestors, Song Shuang attached great importance to letting people prepare no matter how many days there was still a time to set off, and the marquis's honor guards that had accumulated dust were all taken out to clean up, and the accompanying maids and servants were carefully selected to pick up the handsome ones.
It's just that the guards at home are blind and armless and not majestic enough, and they also borrowed more than a dozen scenes from Xu's family and Chang's house, and told Ma Du that he couldn't lose his father-in-law's face when he returned to his hometown.
Such virtuousness made Ma Du unmoved, until he heard Xiao Biao and Zhang Zhongqiu say that he was going to play in Zhongdu, and he knew why this mother-in-law was suddenly so powerful.
Marrying a woman in this era almost means that she has to live in a boxy patio for the rest of her life, especially for wealthy families, senior travelers like Song Shuang, it is not easy to not even return to her mother's home.
Song Shuang counted the days with her fingers, and saw that she was about to have a summer vacation, so she decided to set off on a date, and the day before she was about to leave, a guest came to the house. Ma Du couldn't believe his eyes, Mu Ying stood in front of him with a draped face, "God, why did you come back from Yunnan!" ”
"Haha......" Mu Ying laughed and punched Ma Du in the chest, "Don't you want me to come back?" Are you allowed to go back to your hometown to worship your ancestors, what are you doing, don't hurry up and give me a drink. ”
"Okay, notify the kitchen in five or six, stew an eggplant, scramble an egg, boil a broad bean, and get a jar of rice wine to send to the study, by the way, call Mu Chun back from the academy, and say that he is here!"
"You're getting more and more picky, I'm coming back from afar, and I'll entertain me with these!"
"Okay, look at your round belly, eighty percent of you have eaten in the palace, how much can you eat, just a few light side dishes. Let's go to the study to drink and talk. ”
As soon as the two entered the study, they heard a young voice behind them: "Father, the child will remove your armor!" ”
Ma Du noticed that Mu Ying had been followed by a six- or seven-year-old boy all the time, with his head tied to the horns, and a pair of eyes that were smart, but the expression on his face was serious, wearing a small military uniform, his body was straight, and he looked like a little adult.
"Is this Mu Sheng? How did you change your appearance? ”
Mu Ying sat on the chair and let the little boy untie his jaw, "When are you confused, the second child is as old as Bi Lin." After I invaded Kunming, I picked it up in the houses near Dianchi Lake, when he was less than two years old, eighty percent of it was lost when his family fled, and when he saw that he was pitiful, he was adopted as a righteous son and raised in the army......
Don't look at his young age but sensible and well-behaved, he never leaves my side, serving tea, pouring water, washing pens and ink, just like a parent, speaking of which, my two sons are like being born in vain. He followed me this time to gallop thousands of miles on horseback and didn't complain, he must be a good seedling for war in the future, hehe......"
"Then I'm going to congratulate you!" Ma Du tore off the jade pendant on his waist, "Come on, come on, this jade pendant is a gift for me to give." ”
The little boy didn't take it but turned his head to look at Mu Ying, Mu Ying nodded with a smile and said: "This is the queen's own brother, the marquis of Jiangning, and my good brother, you can take what he gives you, don't be polite." ”
Xiao Tong took two steps forward to Ma Du's body, and bowed with a serious face, "Nephew Ma Sanbao has seen my uncle, thank you uncle for your generous gift!" ”
Ma Du was stunned when he heard this, bowed down and asked him with wide eyes, "What did you just say your name was?" Your name is Ma Sanbao? He raised his head again and asked Mu Ying, "You got this name?" Don't you have the surname Mu? ”
"No, Sanbao's real name, he was already able to speak and tell me in person, I helped him find his family but didn't find it, the locals said that the Hui Hui who lived in that part of Dianchi Lake was surnamed Ma nine times out of ten, so let him be surnamed Ma, don't forget your ancestors in the future."
"Haha...... It's still a backlash! Ma Du laughed and touched Sambo's head, rubbed his face, patted his shoulder, pinched his ass, and most importantly flicked it between his legs, well, the baby is still there, "Good boy, really good boy, take the jade pendant!" ”
Madu opened one drawer after another on the bookcase, "Come and see, take whatever you like." ”
Sanbao subconsciously rubbed the finch that was a little painful just now, and was a little afraid of this enthusiastic and perverted uncle in his heart, and refused: "Uncle's gracious little nephew has received it, and it is enough to get a jade pendant from his uncle." ”
Mu Ying pulled him into his arms and looked at Ma Du with a scrutinizing gaze, "I have never seen you so bold and generous, even if you are both surnamed Ma, but one Han person and one return, even if you go up for eight hundred years, you are not destined to be your own family." ”
