There are always people who say that Hanjing can't hide the news, and that's true.

Hanjing has millions of soldiers and civilians, and business and travel are continuous. The big and small things in the city are always spread everywhere like the wind. The imperial court wants to bid for tenders, or to bid for the sale of overseas territories, and you can buy shares and become the owner of the territory by spending money. As soon as this news came out, everyone thought it was ridiculous at first.

But soon, it was constantly proven to be true by those who were well-informed.

Spend money to buy a territory and become a lord.

When it came to the back, the news had changed, and everyone only remembered one sentence in the news.

Outside the Jinguang Gate in the outer city of Hanjing, Pei Li also heard the news.

Originally, he went to the ball town to watch the game, but when he heard this amazing news, when he confirmed that the news was true, his heart was alive.

Pei Li is a rich man, but he is self-made.

Although his surname is Pei, he has nothing to do with the famous Pei family in the east of the Tang River. When I was young, I worked as a guy in a shop, and I accumulated a lot of knowledge. He later quit his job to work in the Zhang family's shop, which was different in that he did not require apprentices to learn the art for free for many years, regardless of seniority.

Even beginner apprentices are paid, although not much.

He later switched to sales, and he liked that Zhang's shop gave bonuses to sales staff for their performance. After working in the Zhang family for a few years, he earned a lot of bonuses. Originally, if he continued to do it in Zhang's house, he would definitely be able to do better and better, and even be promoted and raised, and be in charge of a store or even a district.

But Pei Li, who had accumulated a sum of capital, resigned.

He had his eye on a vacant lot outside the Golden Light Gate.

This vacant land is piled up with rubble, has been barren for a long time, and the price is very cheap.

Pei Li took out his own money to buy this land, which was full of rubble at that time, and he couldn't farm it if he bought it. He used a very special method, he had a few wooden poles erected next to it, and a bamboo basket was tied to the wooden poles, and then he posted a message to the outside that he would get a number of copper coins by throwing rubble stones into the basket.

There are many children in the neighborhood who are usually fine and play in the neighborhood, and when they hear that there is such a good thing, they all come to participate. A stone-throwing competition was held lively, and most children could not hit it, and only one or two people in a hundred could hit.

Within a few days, the rubble and stones in the open field he had bought had been picked up and thrown under the bamboo basket.

The vacant lot was cleared, and he spent a very small amount of copper money to reward the children who were voted, saving a lot of money on the clean-up fee.

When the land was cleared, he rented it to the sheep keepers, who graze outside during the day and rest on the land at night.

Over the course of a year, the sheep leave a lot of manure here, and with this manure the land becomes fattened.

The following year, Pei Li reclaimed the land and planted fruit trees here.

The fruit trees are grown, and because of the close proximity to the city of Hanjing, the fruits here are not worried about selling and are quite profitable. Immediately afterwards, Pei Li built a house here, kept bees around the yard to collect honey, and planted many flowers such as red and rape in the surrounding open space to provide pollen for the bees.

The fruit trees and flowers around the yard made his yard particularly beautiful, and he turned the yard into an inn and a restaurant, and there were many guests who came here to eat and stay.

By now, that wasteland has become a scene outside the city of Hanjing.

Pei Li's net worth has also increased greatly, and he is known as a huge million.

In fact, Pei Li did this, but when he was working in Zhang's house, I heard that when King Zhao was not yet rich in Bashang, he bought thousands of acres of barren slopes, and later transformed them into rice grain rivers, raising fish and lotus roots, planting rice, mulberry trees, grapes, raising chickens, ducks and sheep, etc., turning the bathing ditch and barren ditch where birds don't into a cornucopia.

Over the years, Pei Li has also invested a lot of money in other industries, and he has also made a lot of profits.

In just ten years, Pei Li started a business here from scratch, and now he is indeed worth a huge fortune.

When he heard the news in Ball Town today, his heart pounded.

He felt it was a very good opportunity.

If you invest money to buy land, you won't lose money, but if you invest money to buy territory, you won't lose anything.

However, how to operate and whether it can enter the market is a question. Pei Li rushed home and thought carefully for a long time, and decided to visit the door in person and ask the Zhang family.

He has been in Zhang's house for three years, which is not a long time, but every year during the New Year's Festival, he still goes to Zhang's house to give gifts. In fact, the Zhang family is very good to the people below, even if it is from the Zhang family, it is also very good.

Many people who have worked in the Zhang family have come out to do it themselves, and the Zhang family not only does not feel sad, but after they work alone, they will try their best to help when they can. Even many of the people who came out themselves are still cooperating with the Zhang family.

As a raw material supplier for some industries of the Zhang family, or the role of some sellers, they still turn around the Zhang family, but they are relatively more independent.

After choosing a few gifts, Pei Li asked the housekeeper to prepare the car.

I didn't pick anything too valuable, that is, a little honey, raisins, vegetable oil, and ice pears produced by myself, which were not expensive, but the Zhang family liked such gifts and was sincere.

Sitting in a luxurious four-wheeled carriage, it is not far from the Pei family manor to the Zhao Wangfu.

The New Year has passed, but Hanjing is still very lively.

The imperial examination in the second year of Kaiyuan has just been completed, and this year coincides with the day of the release of the list.

The title of the gold list is another year of imperial examination, 500 jinshi.

The streets seemed to be in high spirits.

The inn where the children of each family settled is like a festival today. The decoration was new early, and people were sent to the Gongyuan to see the list.

Once the scholar living in his inn is selected, it is also a capital. In each inn there is a card with a list of the scholars who have won the jinshi in each inn.

The more people in the shop, the better the business of this shop, especially in the year of the annual imperial examination, the lifters who come to Beijing like to go to the shops that have won the most jinshi.

The prices of those inns are naturally rising, but no matter how expensive they are, there are people crowding to go.

Pei Li's inn is outside the city, but the environment is beautiful, and there are many people who stay every year. However, there are 5,000 people who enter the examination every year, and there are thousands of other scholars who do not take the exam but come to Beijing. In the year of Dabi, there have been people arriving in Beijing since October, and they will not leave until February or March of the following year.

Tens of thousands of scholars can make a fortune from the inns of all sizes in Beijing.

Pei Li's inn has been seen for several years, and this is the third big competition of reception, the first two times, he won a total of seven jinshi in his inn.

As a result, his inn was also awarded a seven-star mark by the inn guild.

He nailed this seven-star wooden plaque to the door of his inn like a baby, and he could see it from afar. However, compared to Hanjing's inn with the most stars, he is still a little far behind.

One of the most famous inns in Hanjing has an inn with seventy-two stars on the sign next to the door of their house.

Known as the Seventy-Two Star Inn, there are seventy-two people in his family who have won the Jinshi, and there have been two champions.

The two rooms that Zhuangyuanlang had done, in the year of the imperial examination, had to pay several times a night, but many people still rushed to live in them.

"Ah Lang, I heard that many noble families in Beijing have already sent people to wait under the list of tribute courts."

"Catch a son-in-law under the list." Pei Li smiled.

I don't know when it started, but now it's getting more and more popular. Every time in the year of the Great Competition, under the list outside the Tribute Courtyard of the Ministry of Rites, there will be many people from noble families waiting there.

Those new science and technology high schools will be fought over by many nobles to be sons-in-law.

Every three years, there are five hundred jinshi in one subject, which is quite a lot, but there are also many nobles in Beijing. Not only the nobles came to arrest their sons-in-law, but even many people's parliaments also came to arrest them, and those who could become members of the people's parliament were basically powerful and powerful local celebrities.

There are also many new middle school scholars, and in the end, they did become the son-in-law of these nobles and wealthy families.

The nobles and parliamentarians have status, but now the imperial court implements the imperial examination, and although the nobles are high, they can no longer enter the ranks as in the past. If you can't pass the imperial examination, you can only go to the military academy to study and become an officer. However, the influence of military attachés today is much inferior to that of civilian officials, but civil officials are mainly admitted to the imperial examination, and they are promoted as officials, and they are promoted quickly.

Therefore, the nobles and parliamentarians are on the list to catch sons-in-law, which can indeed greatly enhance the influence of the family. And many of the new scholars are landlords of the Hanmen Shu clan or even homesteaders and ordinary people, and they are also willing to marry the daughters of those wealthy nobles, so that they can save many years of struggle.

"It's better to catch a son-in-law under the list than King Zhao to teach the champion himself and then accept him as a son-in-law." Pei Li said with a smile.

King Zhao of Anguo had three daughters, all of whom were protégés who married him.

The most famous of King Zhao's disciples are those who learn the art of war, known as the twelve King Kongs, a county king and eleven princes, and Xuan He is incomparable.

But there are also many disciples of King Zhao who study literature, such as the brothers who came to Henglaiji, Pei Xingjian, Song Qingshu, and even many children of nobles and nobles, all of whom studied under Zhang Chao.

In recent years, there have been nearly 100 Jinshi among the disciples of King Zhao, and among them, there are even the champions of Heng High School.

The city of Hanjing is rich in every inch of land, and the inner city is rich in the east and west, and in the Upper East District, almost all the nobles and relatives gather, and it is also known as the aristocratic district. If you don't have a noble title, it's basically impossible to live here.

Any house is more than 10,000 yuan.

With Pei Li's net worth, he can only sigh with admiration.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the Hengjie in front of the palace of King Zhao of Anguo, and the entire side street was actually the residence of King Zhao, and the emperor also personally built the stone archway at both ends of the street.

The prime minister got out of the car, and the military general dismounted.

After receiving the gift from the butler, Pei Li personally carried it to the side door.

The gate of the Zhang family, he is not qualified to cross.

The doorman at the side door was also very familiar with him, and reported to the steward in the porter.

The steward came over to say hello.

"Pei Langjun is here."

Pei Li smiled and took out the gifts he had prepared earlier, and gave one to the steward and the doormen, "Home-grown honey, everyone take it back to soak in water and drink it, don't be suspicious." ”

The Pei family's honey is still famous in Han Kyoto, and everyone accepts it with a smile. Pei Li is a sensible person, and the gifts given will not be heavy, so everyone can also feel at ease and do not have to worry about violating family rules.

The steward checked the gifts brought by Pei Li, then registered them in the visitor book, and smiled and beckoned a family member to let him in.

The Zhang Mansion has a special steward who takes over the guests, and he is only in charge of this side door.

Smiling goodbye to everyone, he carried the gift and followed the family to a courtyard, where the Zhang family was at the reception.

When I came in, I found that it was not lively today, and there were already many people here. There are many old acquaintances, all of whom came out of the Zhang family and are now attached to the Zhang family in Hanjing.

"Lao Pei, you're late." Acquaintances greeted him from afar.
