Chapter 342: Grace
On the second day after Zheng Guochang left for Beijing, Chang Jinquan sat in the room looking at the account books, and Chang Dushi was babbling beside him, which meant that Chang Jinyou came back.
"The son-in-law and nephew have such a relationship, and he is still doing those unobtrusive livelihoods on Li Zhuang's side, isn't it too annoying?" The more Chang Du said, the more angry he became, and his voice became louder and louder, if it weren't for Chang Jinquan being the patriarch of the Chang family, he had always been a little shocked by the majesty of his life, and I was afraid that Chang Du would be slapping the table.
"Some things are owned by Brother Han himself, which is very important." Chang Jin said unhurriedly: "Why are you in a hurry?" Could it be that Brother Han can still treat him badly? Besides, what kind of business did you call him back? The Chang family's business has more than doubled compared to before, this is all taken care of by Brother Han, deliberately taking some business for us to do, being a man can't get an inch, Brother Han is not a thing in the pool, it's not as simple as you think. β
"Isn't he just a nine-grade inspector?" Chang Dushi said in an impassioned tone: "I now know that he and those big people do get along well, since this is the case, I should take care of his father-in-law's family, how can he make so much money and ignore the reason of his father-in-law's mother-in-law." β
"You are taught by the fifth brother again, right?" Chang Jinquan sighed, feeling a little exhausted.
A big family is not prosperous, it is easy to decay or be bullied, because there are more people in the family, there are more people to interact with, and the network has expanded many times invisibly, and ordinary people will always have a little fear of dealing with such a big family.
Back then, Lai Tongxin and they chose He Yusheng as the leader, Zhang Han's family was not prosperous, there was no adult male, and it was very related to the separation of the family from Puzhou's hometown and no family support.
However, there are too many people in the family, and it is easy to fight each other, and the people in the family have different thoughts, and they all think about their own interests, which is easy to cause internal friction.
Although the Chang family is not infighting, there are also all kinds of troubles.
"It's the fifth child who said it," Chang Dushi said without any emotion: "That's right, if relatives don't help each other, can they help outsiders?" β
"Brother Han got it all by himself today, and our Chang family didn't help much." Chang Jinquan said: "He is not someone you can control, don't be confused." β
"I just want to call the head of the family back...... Chang Dushi thinks about Zhang Han's son-in-law, there are indeed a lot of things that make him afraid, a woman like her usually says the same thing in the family, but in front of Zhang Han, she never dares to make a mistake. After thinking about it, he still felt that Chang Jin was too much of a loss outside, and couldn't help but say with hatred: "That dead ghost thinks about useless things every day, and asks Brother Han to be like a donkey, not to mention seeking some benefits for himself." And Chang Wei too, I've been in Xinpingbao for so long, and this little beast hasn't come to see me a few times. β
"Alas......"
Chang Jinquan thinks about Chang Jinyou, and then thinks about Chang Ning, Chang Wei, the brother and sister, and is very strange in his heart, how can there be such a terrible existence as Chang Du's in the inner house.
"Second master," at this time, a long follower came in to save Chang Jinquan, and the chief followed him quickly to Chang Jinquan's side, bowed down and said: "Zhang's mansion came to the Jinyi Weiqi School and the little eunuch in Beijing, saying that the edict is coming." β
"Herald?" Chang Jin stood up violently and said excitedly, "Do you know what is going on?" β
"I don't know!" Chang Sui said: "I just went to Zhang's house to find the eldest lady, and when I saw the crowd at the street, I ran to Zhang's house, I followed to the door, and when I saw the flag school and father-in-law wearing flying fish suits, I couldn't squeeze forward, and I hurried back to report the news in a hurry." β
"Good, you're doing well."
At that time, the image of the Son of Heaven was a demigod, and China did not have the development of Shinto like Japan, but the Son of Heaven was definitely a little divine in the eyes of the people, and the people at the bottom regarded the literati above the level as the stars descending to earth, not to mention the supreme emperor who mastered this huge empire and could decide the fate of hundreds of millions of people with his words and deeds.
In folklore, the two major gods have been canonized, but they still have to be the gatekeepers for the emperor, and the words "True Dragon Son of Heaven" are not in vain.
Of course, the closer it is, the lower the divinity, the Japanese emperor has a time when he can't eat, and there are many decapitated emperors in China, but in this Ming Dynasty is still unified, and the world is generally peaceful, the impact of the words "emperor" and "holy decree" on the people is not ordinary.
"Brother Han, what's the matter...... "Chang Du's mouth is also wide open, like a sluggish toad.
", can't it be a good thing?" Chang Jinquan couldn't wait to slap this woman in the face.
Chang Jinquan hurriedly went out, called the chief to prepare the horse, and then galloped away in the direction of Zhangfu.
At the same time, Zhou Fengji in the main store, Liang Hong opposite, Lai Tongxin in the General's Mansion, and Li Shenming, who was meeting with guests, all received the news almost at the same time and rushed to Zhang's Mansion together.
Chang Jinquan has seen a lot of acquaintances when he arrived at the door of Zhang's mansion, and there are quite a few crowds at the door of Zhang's mansion at the intersection of the west side of South Street, people are stretching their necks, looking at the door of Zhang's house with straight eyes, there are several Jinyi flag schools left at the gate of the mansion, these Jinyi guards may be Ding Yu or ordinary soldiers, and Jinyi Wei is not all captains, as well as standard-bearers, Han generals, Ding Yu, etc., not everyone is qualified to wear flying fish suits.
Chang Jinquan saw that Zhang Rui asked these people to sit down in the gatehouse, these brocade guards excused themselves, and saw that the people in Zhang's mansion took a good look at their horses and luggage, so they agreed half-pushed.
At this time, Zhang Rui saw Chang Jinquan coming over, and hurriedly shouted: "Clear the road and call the second uncle to come in." β
There were also many people around who knew Chang Jinquan, and they also quickly got out of the way for him.
When Chang Jinquan came in, he saw that Zhou Fengji and the others were also there, and everyone didn't care about greeting as usual, so Chang Jinquan split his head and asked: "I heard that there is a will, what is it, does anyone know?" β
"I don't know yet." Zhou Fengji and the others were a little worried in their eyebrows, everyone was shaking their heads, and Zhang Rui secretly stuffed red envelopes for those Jinyi guards while answering for everyone.
A person in a brocade guard first weighed the weight of the red envelope, and then opened the bag to see the color.
The silver is a small silver ingot of five taels and an ingot, there are four in each small red cloth bag, that is, twenty taels, and the fineness is also a very high-quality fine-grained ingot, after reading it, several brocade guards showed a satisfied look on their faces, and the first one to see rushed to say: "Don't worry, this time our will is to give you Zhang Hanzhang's will to inspect and promote you." β
"Promotion?"
Although they had a hunch, when the news came, everyone's expressions were still very brilliant and complicated.
"Well, it's a promotion."
This Jinyiwei person is just an ordinary flag school, and the team that came out is a Jinyiwei deputy hundred households, everyone is entrusted with the relationship to take the turn of this kind of outward errand to pass the decree, and it is not an ordinary will, it is from the grace of the Great Interior, this kind of errand is of course fat, everyone is to make the relationship rob, from the harvest point of view, it is also worth the trip.
Because he was happy in his heart, Jinyiwei, who spoke, smiled again and said: "The will is to promote you to patrol and inspect the guard, and you are a third-rank military officer." β
"Huo!"
Chang Jinquan screamed, with a look of joy and shock on his face.
Zhou Fengji was very excited, and he didn't know what to say.
Liang Hong laughed.
If it is said that it is based on the original family background of the Zhang family in Puzhou, a civil official family with scholars and governor-level officials, it is not worth mentioning that the children are not worth mentioning when they become the commanders of the three grades, and it is even enough to be humiliated.
Because of the civil official family, the career background, from the civil official step by step is the right way, and the rest are miscellaneous streams.
"If the old lady knows, I don't know what she will be happy about!"
After holding back for a long time, Zhou Fengji could only say such a sentence.
Liang Hong said: "Of course, we must sacrifice to our ancestors and tell our ancestors the good news." β
"That's for later." Chang Jinquan rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "What matters now is to know which guard's commander it is and whether it is a palm print." β
Everyone looked at the brocade guards, and the brocade guards who talked the most waved his hand and smiled: "I don't know this, you have to go in and ask." β
Chang Jinquan was full of curiosity, stepped inside, and did not forget to arch his hand to the brocade guards: "Thank you, thank you." β
"Don't thank us, we're just going on a mission, haha."
This brocade guard still speaks the official dialect with the Jianghuai official accent, which is different from the pure Beijing films, and the pro-military accents of the royal family and these descendants still bear the imprint of Nanjing, which is not completely integrated with the pure Beijing native language.
They did not delay any longer, but went together to the inner house.
"Do you hear that? Zhang Dong was awarded to the commander of the guard! β
"Which guard?"
"And that's not even said."
"It would be nice if Yang Hewei was in charge, it just so happens that our Xinping Fort is under his control."
"The military fort is still under the management of the staff general or the garrison, and it is useless for the guard commander not to garrison. I don't know if Zhang Dongzhu has added a garrison. β
"Anyway, it's a rebirth, and all of a sudden it's a third-grade military attachΓ©."
"Isn't it? It is also the brilliance of our Xinpingbao merchants! β
There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, and a heartfelt smile appeared on almost everyone's faces, except for a few people, Zhang Han won the support of most of the merchants and people in Xinpingbao, even if he got the three-rank martial arts at this time, no one would be jealous, people may be jealous of people who are about the same level as themselves, but they will not be jealous of people who are much stronger than themselves, Zhang Han has made everyone unable to compare, and of course he can't give birth to the idea of jealousy and hatred.
In the crowd, Chang Dushi almost fainted in surprise, and several men of the Chang family were also full of shock, before that, they never thought that Zhang Han could suddenly become such a big official as the commander of the guard, fortunately in Shanxi, the sense of existence of the Shanxi capital division is already very weak, but this is the Shanxi Xingdu Division, except for a few states and counties, almost all of the territory of the guard is the territory, the military attache still has the right, and there is still a certain status in the hearts of the people!
