Chapter 69 Each Performs His Duties

After Zhao Yi left, he left all 11 people, including Wang Wu and Lao Qi, in the palace of Guangping County. Zhao Gou looked at everyone with a smile and said apologetically: "Brothers, I didn't know about it before, I hope you will forgive me!" Since you are all willing to follow me, it is really an honor. ”

Wang Wu replied respectfully: "The king of the county is polite, and it is also our blessing that we follow you." ”

There was nothing flattering in his words, nor was it demeaning about himself, but the truest thoughts in their hearts. After all, Zhao Gou's martial arts convinced him, and if they stayed by Zhao Gou's side, their martial arts could improve again. Moreover, Zhao Gou is also an important minister of the imperial court, a very popular minister, and the most beloved Nine Emperor Princes of the current emperor. In every way, it's a good choice.

They also understood Zhao's good intentions, eleven people followed Zhao Gou's side and grew up with him, he became a general or a powerful government and the opposition, and they could also rise to the top. They will be the first batch of Zhao Gou to return to the main court, and they are also a force of Zhao Gou, they are useless for other skills, if it comes to finding out the news, tracking and assassination are first-class people.

Zhao Gou saw that everyone was not familiar with each other, and he was a little polite, and said with a smile: "You will all be my Zhao Gou's brothers in the future, so you don't need to be called the king of the county, it sounds awkward." If you don't mind, you can call me 'Lao Jiu'. Besides, my father and uncle Wang all shouted like this. ”

Wang Wuyi shook his head and said: "This is not good, you have always been the identity of the king of the county, and besides, the emperor and the owner of the village are both your closest relatives and your elders, so it is natural to call you 'Lao Jiu'." We are all your subordinates, and we can only sit on an equal footing with the county king. How about we call you 'Childe'?" ”

Zhao thought about it, nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then calling 'Childe' is much better than the king of the county!" ”

Everyone unanimously called Zhao Gou 'Gongzi', and no longer called 'County King'. As for Zhao Gou, when he is crowned and becomes the prince in the future, he can change his words when the time comes. Everyone saw that Zhao Gou was very kind and easy-going, and they couldn't help but feel a little happy in their hearts. Yesterday's Zhao Gou was full of anger, and he wanted to vent, but he only left some of his mercy, and he still seriously injured everyone. Zhao Gou saw that their faces were blue and red, and some places were still bruised, and some people were still a little inconvenient to walk, or coughing, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart.

Then, Zhao Gou asked everyone to return to the inner hall, and the candlestick was filled with dozens of candles, under the illumination of the bronze mirror, it was like daylight, but the light flickered a little. Zhao Gou stepped in, looking at the tables and chairs in the inner hall, all the doors and windows were replaced with brand new, and even the furniture was made of mahogany, and sighed in his heart: "It's really a luxury, if it is put in the future, all of it is made of mahogany furniture, I don't know how much it will cost!" ”

Wang Wu used to be the housekeeper of Amber Villa, and was transferred by Zhao Yi to serve in the palace of Guangping County. All the furnishings here were arranged in accordance with the rules of the royal family, and he also arranged them single-handedly, and everyone worked together to arrange them neatly. Now, they are no longer people in the rivers and lakes, as if they have adapted to the identity of the family, and they are waiting for Zhao Gou's orders.

Wang Wu also showed the area, rooms and layout of this mansion to Zhao Gou one by one. There are not only pavilions and pavilions here, but also small bridges and flowing water, and there are more places to practice martial arts, and even the size of the residence and houses are more than a dozen, as well as the study, kitchen, toilet and other places are all informed.

Zhao Gou was dumbfounded after hearing this, and exclaimed, "Fifth brother, how big is this place?" How can there be so many rooms, how do we live in eleven of us, isn't it a bit big? ”

"Childe doesn't know, according to etiquette, your mansion is medium!" Wang Wu smiled slightly.

Zhao Gou was taken aback and thought, "It's not big enough?" If this is said in the future generations, it will be tens of millions, even hundreds of millions of assets, if you are not the richest man in the world, you will not be able to afford it at all. It's just magnificent, comparable to a mansion, or a courtyard house, I didn't expect to become a 'billionaire' in the Great Song Dynasty! ”

Wang Wu saw that Zhao Gou was still a little surprised, and explained with a puzzled look: "Generally speaking, when a first-grade official bestows a mansion, it takes twenty rooms, and a second-rank official has fifteen rooms. Gongzi is a second-class member of the dynasty, and he should have fifteen rooms and a knighthood, so this mansion covers an area of four acres. If it is a meritorious prince, it covers an area of up to 90 acres, not only pavilions, but also courtyards such as back gardens. However, there were very few people who really had this mansion in the court, and some county kings could not open a mansion outside, so they could only live in the palace, and after the title was stripped away, the mansion had to be taken back. ”

"This mansion is a feng shui treasure personally selected by the emperor, and the layout and specifications here are designed and built by the king of the county at the highest level. Originally, this mansion also belonged to a county king, but it has remained since the man was demoted to a commoner. The emperor gave you this mansion when he saw that the prince was opening a mansion outside, and ordered the craftsmen and others to prepare it a year in advance, which was originally given to you when you were crowned king. If I'm not mistaken, if Childe is crowned king, maybe this mansion will be expanded, and it's up to you whether you want it or not. ”

Zhao Gou nodded dumbfounded, unable to speak in surprise, he didn't expect that he could get such a reward for being added to the rank of official. Now, he understands why all officials want to be promoted and make a fortune. After that, Wang Wu also said that Zhao Gou had not yet married a wife, and the back garden had been vacant, without any furnishings, and Zhao Gou did not say anything.

In the end, Zhao Gou asked the names of the people again, and among the eleven of them, Wang Wu was the largest, in order of Wang Wu, Chen Liu, Zhao Qi, He Jiu, Gong Shi, Huang Shiyi, Yang 13, Li 18, Li 19, Shen 20, and 28. After that, everyone also revealed their previous identities one after another.

Zhao Gou nodded, looked at the eighteenth and nineteenth looked a little similar, and asked, "Are you two brothers?" Li 18 and Li 19 nodded, they were brothers of the same mother. Then, Zhao Gou looked at Twenty-Eight again and said, "Why do they all have surnames, but you don't, what's going on?" ”

Twenty-eight replied: "Hui Yu Gongzi, in the villa, only the top twenty in the ranking of martial arts and the sum of merit have a surname, and all the rest are called by code names." ”

"And such a thing?" Zhao Gou secretly thought about a person's number after twenty in his heart, and then named him with his surname, he always felt a little awkward, and he understood a little in his heart. Zhao Gou looked at everyone doing a good job in a dignified manner, without the slightest disrespect, and said with a dumb smile: "There are no outsiders at the moment, only our own people are here, so there is no need to be rigid in etiquette, everyone sits down at will, and it is really a little unaccustomed to sitting like this." ”

After Zhao Gou's words were finished, the eleven of them sat casually, some of them crossed their legs, some of them supported their chins with their hands, and some of them were lying down, only Wang Wuyi was still sitting like this. He knew that Wang Wu was a housekeeper before, and the etiquette was naturally in place compared to others, so he didn't say anything, and said: "Since you follow me, don't call me by a code name from now on, I don't know if you have a name in your heart, or a former name?" ”

Everyone shook their heads with a wry smile, they were all wandering orphans, they were only a few years old when they joined Amber Hills, and they couldn't remember anything at all, where did they remember their names. So, everyone shook their heads in unison. Seeing this, Zhao Gou lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and said, "In that case, why don't I choose names for your brothers?" As for the surname, then don't change it, just follow the previous surname, only twenty-eight to the full name. ”

Everyone clapped their hands in unison, who doesn't want to have their own name? Even if the name is just a code name, if you have your own name, at least someone will remember who you used to be. If he didn't have a name, no one would remember him when he died, and that kind of life was really sad. Everyone grew up in Amber Hills, and they didn't have a name but remembered the code name and got used to it, and they still desperately wanted to have a name, a name that belonged to them.

"Wang Wu, your future name will be Wang Wu!" Zhao Gou said with a smile, Wang Wuyi felt very strange when he heard it, why is it still this name. However, Zhao Gou explained: "Fifth brother, your previous name was a number, this is not a number, but the 'martial arts' of 'martial arts', I don't know if the fifth brother likes it?" ”

Wang Wu replied excitedly: "Thank you, Childe!" ”

In the end, Zhao Gou changed all their names, leaving only the surnames, some things with different words, and some were completely changed, in order: Wang Wu, Chen Liu, Zhao Qi, He Huan, Gong Cang, Huang Shi, Yang Chan, Li Shien, Li Shiren, Shen Liang, Zhao Zhen. Everyone had their own name, and from then on they no longer had only code names.

Then, Zhao Gou divided the labor between them again and performed their own duties. The housekeeper is Wang Wu, the accounting room is in charge of Zhao Qi and He Huan, the kitchen is in charge of Shen Liang and Zhao Zhen, Li Shien and Li Shiren are the nurses, and the other four are the family members. In addition, the four of them will also take care of the study and back garden from time to time.

Everyone was excited for a while, Zhao Gou's arrangements were all according to the division of labor in the profession they were engaged in before, which could be regarded as the right place and made the best use of their talents.
