Section 408 The money came from the right place
The third volume sailed in the Ming Dynasty
Autumn and winter communication, hot and cold, leaves on the ground.
The news of the young governor's wedding, along with the southeast wind along the coast, spread throughout the land of Fujian and the whole of Guangdong, affecting the hearts of all people with lofty ideals.
Once a son of heaven and a courtier, the change of officialdom has always been an opportunity for the reshuffling of rights and interests, with vested interests hoping to continue to maintain it, and frustrated hoping to be able to climb this big tree and regain its strength.
Then, this big wedding is undoubtedly the best opportunity and excuse to shorten the distance between the two parties.
As a result, the convoys in Fuzhou City from south to north became more and more lively day by day. Even Lu Xiangsheng, Zhang Songrong and others, who were far away in Xuanda, also sent guards to send congratulatory gifts from thousands of miles away.
Of course, this is a normal human relationship, and it is very different from other people's minds.
"Qin Lang, I'm afraid this is inappropriate! At that time, if someone in the place has a heart to play the imperial court, the imperial historian will definitely be impeached, and Qin Lang will ......"
Liu Ru looked at the house full of rare treasures, holding a box of large and small silver tickets in his hand, worried.
In the past few days, officials of all sizes, big and small, who are eager to give gifts, and businessmen who do not know each other, have made every effort and exhausted all kinds of methods to rush to send congratulatory gifts to the governor's palace with their names attached.
Even the generals of the Governor's Palace, and the literati in the chamber were the objects of their entrustment.
It is the newly recruited maid of the Governor's Palace, and it is also the source of the news for those who are interested in it, and some small favors are inevitable.
This kind of thing, in Liu Rus's eyes, was originally strictly prohibited, and it was not allowed to tarnish the name of the Governor's Mansion and let people take control.
But Qin Lang is good, and he can't disappoint everyone's good intentions with a light sentence, so that the people who give gifts are like crossing the river in an endless stream, which promotes the wind of gift-giving.
A few days ago, there were still some weightless gifts or congratulatory gifts, but as the wedding date approached day by day, the person who made the move became richer and richer, which also means that the congratulatory gifts are getting heavier and heavier.
Just this morning, Li Benkui, the prefect of Tingzhou, sent up to 30,000 taels of silver tickets and some gold, silver and jewelry, and the Gao family, a maritime merchant in Zhangzhou, directly sold 50,000 taels, which made Liu Ru's heart flutter.
If this is left in the Ming Taizu and Chengzu years, it is definitely enough to peel the skin and fill the lantern, although it is not so serious now, but it is so public, the court doesn't care, I really don't know what Qin Lang thinks?
Qin Haoming flipped through the account books in his hand at will, and replied casually: "My beloved wife knows, they all took the initiative to send it, but didn't the husband force them?" ”
"But......" Liu Ru was still very worried.
"If they dare to send it, the governor will dare to receive it! Zhou Yu beat Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. Ben Du didn't steal or rob, this money came in a dignified and fair manner, who dares to say? ”
Qin Haoming raised the smile at the corner of his mouth, and his smile was a little wilted.
"Qin Lang, are you really okay? It is good for the Son of Heaven to love him, but he is afraid that the courtiers will fall into the well, but how can he be good? ”
Liu Ru likes politics and has no lack of vision, stamping her feet and expressing her worries.
"The world is as black as a crow, the second brother must not say the eldest brother.
For the governor of the two provinces, all the money in a year adds up to only more than 600 lines of silver.
For more than 200 years in the Ming Dynasty, there was only one Haigang Peak, and he couldn't eat a meal of meat a month, how could his husband learn from him?
If you have more children, and let your wives and children suffer for your husband, it will be a shame to die! ”
Qin Haoming spoke this fallacy so confidently that he almost patted his chest and said that Lao Tzu wanted to be the most greedy in the world.
"Qin Lang, as long as the money is enough, don't indulge in it. The concubine knew that Qin Lang was a rare strange man in the world, and this approach must have deep meaning.
I'm just worried that the Son of Heaven will repeat it, in case he comes to a scene of tears and slashing horses in the future, it will be too late to regret it! ”
Liu Ru frowned, walked to Qin Lang's side, put down the wooden box in his hand, gently grabbed Ailang's hand, rested it on his delicate face, and carefully comforted him.
Along the way, as a pillow person, Liu Ru naturally knew that Ailang was not a person who was poor and luxurious.
With the gradual expansion of the soap factory in Linpu, there is a revenue of two or three million a year. There are also cement factories in Xuanda, Fuzhou, Guangdong, and Li Jingzhen's joint venture, although the output has not increased, but there are hundreds of thousands of income.
It is foreseeable that in the near future, the cement factory will definitely have a lot of money, which is enough to make the Qin family worry about food and clothing for a lifetime.
Before coming to Fuzhou, she had been managing these things, so she naturally knew a lot about them.
But with such a large family property, Qin Lang did not use the money for personal enjoyment except for building a mansion in his hometown. As far as she knows, she eats three meals a day with the soldiers around her, and she has something to eat.
On the contrary, it costs a lot to take in refugees, open up wasteland, and form escort teams.
As smart as her, she knows how much Qin Lang is not doing this for herself, but for the world and the country and the people.
But even so, she was still worried, if not for anything else, but for the high imperial power.
Throughout the ages, the birds are all hidden, and the rabbits are dead and the dogs are cooked. After how many loyal ministers have become famous, they have disappeared, leaving only their reputations for future generations to remember.
"Beloved wife, please rest assured, for your husband to know the measure. Moreover, this is ...... There is an agreement with the Son of Heaven. ”
This situation is undoubtedly not suitable for interjecting jokes, Qin Haoming smiled and gave a positive look and a white lie.
Liu Ru is too smart, she can see that he is stepping on the red line everywhere, and she can see the hidden dangers in the future.
But so what? Do you have a choice?
Even though the brothers and wives are intimate, some things have not come to that point, and they still can't be declared, which is just worrying in vain.
"That's good!"
Hearing that Qin Lang had an appointment with the Son of Heaven, and then thinking that money was not used for his own family, Liu Ru did not doubt him, his face was sad, and he smiled, beautiful as a fairy.
"Alas, it seems that the husband has made a wrong decision."
Looking at the numbers in the account book, Qin Haoming suddenly sighed, which surprised Liu Ru.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?"
"How good it is to get married three times in this marriage, so that you can receive three congratulatory gifts."
"Poof......
Liu Ru's heart was completely lost, and she glanced at him coquettishly and smiled coquettishly.
It's just that although Qin Haoming said this in his mouth, he was really sighing in his heart.
Not for anything else, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, for the Ming Dynasty, for the Ming officialdom.
These court officials and the Ming Dynasty deviated from morality and disregarded the life and death of the country. When the country was in danger, Chongzhen hoped to raise donations from them, but he didn't get a penny.
That is because Chongzhen can no longer give them benefits, and the interests are already in the hands of the court bosses and governors.
And now he is desperate to tie himself up, which is also for the sake of profit.
Because he has the resources of the two provinces in his hands, whether it is an official position or other countless minerals and other wealth, he hopes to get a piece of the pie.
Just, why give it to you?
A sneer crossed Qin Haoming's mouth.
