Chapter 325: My Big Brother
[Ran^ζ^Library][]. []. [com] Wu Zhi, who was at home in Qingzhou, was shocked after receiving the news, and immediately rushed to the government office full of joy. γMairuo Debutγ
This news is currently only within the court, and only some high-ranking officials in Bianjing know about it, and according to the news, Empress Murong will not be officially canonized until next year, and Murong Yanda has not gotten the news so quickly.
Wu Zhi is going to give him good news!
In fact, it is Wu Zhi who really thinks that this is a great joy, for Murong Yanda, he himself is an official and sleek, and his sister is a senior concubine, he is a relative of the emperor, even if his sister is not canonized as the queen, then his future career will definitely be prosperous, not to mention a six-part Shangshu, even if he mixes into the position of a privy envoy or a prime minister who participates in political affairs in the future, it is not difficult.
Therefore, these high-ranking officials are a matter of time for Murong Yanda, and now that they are coming so soon, although it is worth being happy, it is not a big happy event.
Compared with Murong Yanda's own official promotion, perhaps his own sister became the queen of the mother's world, which was a great joy for him.
However, in Wu Zhi's opinion, his eldest brother Murong Yanda was promoted to a high position like the Six Books at this moment, and he was still in charge of the world's household registration money, grain, taxes, and industry and commerce.
Hubu Shangshu is his sworn brother, and even if Wu Zhi does business with his eyes closed, he will not worry about making money.
More importantly, a series of businesses developed by Wuzhi have far-reaching and huge influence, and they involve the foundation of people's livelihood, and what I am most afraid of is the constraints of the government, especially the household department.
The liquor industry is not a living example, a decree of the household department to forcibly collect the formula made Wu Zhi go all the way to Bianjing to beg his grandfather to sue his grandmother, and almost broke his leg.
There is also a roller movable type printing created by Wu Zhi, which was simply given to the government for free in Bianjing, in fact, Wu Zhi is not willing, but does not want to cause trouble again.
When he planned to establish the Great Song Bank, Wu Zhi had already made a good plan to deal with the government step by step, and he knew that the imperial court would definitely not let go of the bank easily in the future, and there must be many problems waiting for him.
But now it's okay, he suddenly has such a deep personal relationship with Hubu Shangshu, Murong Yanda will cover his little brother if he says anything, and he himself has shares in the bank, and if the bank has something to do in the future, he will take the initiative to help deal with it without Wu Zhi opening his mouth.
When he came to the mansion, the official guarding the door saw that it was Wu Zhi, so he directly led Wu Zhi to Murong Yanda's signing room, and after the announcement, Wu Zhi entered the room directly.
"Brother! How do you have time to come to me? Murong Yanda was wearing an official robe, but he was not wearing a black gauze hat, and he was very happy to see Wu Zhi coming.
"Dude! There is a happy event! Wu Zhi got straight to the point, and said directly and excitedly.
Murong Yanda thought about it steadily, and said a little puzzled: "What a joy?" A few of your younger siblings shouldn't have been born so soon, right? β
"Hey! My ladies are still a few months away! Wu Zhi waved his hand and said, "It's not about my happy event, it's your big happy event, brother!" β
Wu Zhi continued with a smile: "Just now I received a flying pigeon from the Bianjing Newspaper, saying that the imperial court is about to appoint a new Hubu Shangshu, and this candidate is you, brother!" β
"Oh? Ha ha! β
Murong Yanda smiled, and did not have that sense of surprise descending from the sky, after he beckoned Wu Zhi to sit down, he also sat firmly on the chair next to Wu Zhi, and seemed to breathe a long sigh of relief.
"That's good! That's great! β
Seeing this, Wu Zhi suddenly realized in his heart, looking at Murong Yanda's performance, he should not have received the exact news of being appointed as the head of the household department before, but he must have known that he was the candidate for the head of the household department.
"Brother, you already knew that you might be appointed as the head of the household?" Wu Zhi still couldn't help but ask.
"Hey, hey!" Murong Yanda's fleshy face burst into a smile again, and he said to Wu Zhi: "Don't hide it from my brother, this position of the head of the household department is what I personally asked the official family for!" β
Wu Zhi was stunned, this Hubu Shangshu was actually asked by him to come to the official family in person, and he deserved to be a relative of the emperor!
Seeing that Wu Zhi was dumbfounded, Murong Yanda continued: "Actually, after the autumn of this year, I learned the news that the official family is going to make a sister the queen, and the harem has been taken care of by the official family all these years, and she will be the queen sooner or later. After deciding this matter, the official family sent a secret decree asking me to be promoted to any official position, and I asked for this household book! In fact, the official family originally meant to let me be a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion. β
After speaking, Murong Yanda pinched his chin leisurely.
Wu Zhi glanced at Murong Yanda with admiration, generally speaking, when the queen is newly established, her family, relatives, and officials will ventilate in advance, giving them a high-grade false position, and they will definitely not give a position of real power, let alone a high position of real power.
And Murong Yanda unequivocally asked the official family for this official position with a high position and great power, which is really a bit of a lion's mouth.
Dare to shoot at the emperor when he should shoot, and he is so lion with his mouth, and the key people have succeeded, it is really unconvincing!
In fact, this is also because Murong Yanda is different from most of the imperial relatives, he has a proud political performance in Qingzhou, so he has the confidence to ask the official family for such an official position.
Of course, his political achievements are basically made by the two brothers Wu Zhi and Wu Song, and they have little to do with his own ability, which he also knows. However, Murong Yanda didn't care about these at all, in his opinion, this was his political achievement, because he chose the right person.
And after he became the head of the household department, Wu Zhi still had a close relationship with him, and the greater Wu Zhi's career in the future, the more prominent his achievements in the head of the household department would be.
"Dude! You're a cow! Brother admires! Wu Zhi patted Murong Yanda's ass sincerely, and continued: "The elder brother's choice of the household department is too correct, and in the future, if the elder brother supports me in the household department, I can let go and do it!" No matter how big the industry is, it is not afraid of provoking the government to covet it! Ahaha! β
"Otherwise, why do you think I don't do it with a bachelor who enjoys leisure, and I have to take care of the headache of the household department?" Murong Yanda glanced at Wu Zhi with a smile and continued, "Isn't it to cover you kid? The output of your winery and oil mill is much higher than that of our other workshops in the Great Song Dynasty, and there must be extraordinary skills in it. It's hard not to be stared at by the government! β
"That's fine, you're ready to hand over the secret recipe to the government." Murong Yanda looked at Wu Zhi and continued: "But the Great Song Bank you opened is too shocking, according to my estimate, the bank will definitely develop into a behemoth related to the Great Song Dynasty in the future!" I won't help you cover up in the future, I'm afraid that you will be forcibly requisitioned by the government when your bank is halfway open! β
Listening to Murong Yanda's words, Wu Zhi's nose suddenly became sour, Murong Yanda's words were full of consideration for himself, and the tone of his voice was really like a big brother's ear to his younger brother, full of care, and what was even more rare was that Murong Yanda not only said this, but also started to do it a long time ago.
When he first came into contact with Murong Yanda, Wu Zhi thought he was just a corrupt official with a belly of straw; Later, I suddenly discovered that Murong Yanda was not as simple as it seemed, and he was a wise and foolish foodie; And now, Wu Zhi got to know him again.
This time, no matter what kind of person Wu Zhi is, Wu Zhi only knows that Murong Yanda is his big brother!
Always!
