Chapter 23: Jealousy

The general big family is not separated, the land, the shop, all kinds of miscellaneous income are gathered together, and then distributed according to the head of each house, who has the right to distribute, who is the old Feng Weng of the family, and even the patriarch of the family.

Here in Puzhou, according to Zhang Xuezeng, there are nearly 20,000 acres of land, with the accumulation of the Zhang family's successive gentry, and the family wealth saved by Zhang Siwei when he was a university scholar, the number of acres of land is not much.

If there are clansmen in the court who are currently in official positions of the third rank or above, the land can also be greatly increased.

In the tenth year of Wanli, the imperial court was presided over by Zhang Juzheng to clear the hidden field, which was equivalent to snatching food from the mouths of the nobles, and at that time more than 100 million acres of hidden fields were cleared in a few years, and the whip method spread Ding Yin into the acres of land, and the income of the imperial court was greatly increased. As a result, as soon as Zhang Juzheng died, Zhang Siwei took the lead to liquidate, in fact, he still maintained the interests of his family and the entire class, and as for Daming's financial problems, he didn't bother to think about it so much.

Wanli is also a mallet, Zhang Juzheng laid a good foundation, as long as he guards Chengdu very well, the result is that the order is changed overnight, the good situation is ruined, and he sends a large number of mining envoys to tax envoys, and the emperor uses illegal means to make money, and the knowledge is nothing more than that.

In addition to the acres of land, there is also a pawnshop, a money village, a silk shop and a grocery store, and the Zhang family also puts some usury, but the scale is not large, after all, the confidence is not hard now, and some things are not easy to do too much, otherwise if something happens, the magistrate will not really help cover it up.

The annual income of the entire Zhang family in Puzhou is about 10,000 taels, and if the income can increase by 2,000, Zhang Yin will be tempted to come.

"Tell the second master, I haven't started to scale up yet, and if I do, I have to ask for his shade, and the silver will be given more and more."

Zhang Han is also another form of returning to the sect, other houses are here in Puzhou, some people help take care of the money village, some people manage the property, and finally Zhang Han is responsible for distributing the income of the year, Zhang Han said that it is impossible to move back to this house, or to include the family property in the public middle school, so the method of sending silver every year is not bad.

Zhang Xuezeng nodded and said, "It's hard for you to have this heart, Brother Han, so I'll give up my face and go again." ”

"The juniors are waiting outside the main hall."

At this time, no one came to embarrass him, Zhang Han and his party followed Zhang Xuezeng and walked smoothly outside the main hall.

This is the residence of Zhang Siwei father and son, the door is wide, the courtyard wall is towering, you can see the rockery in the back garden from the outside, although the pond willow decays in winter, but according to those uneven scenes, you can also see how green trees are in spring and summer, and the scenery must be very beautiful.

There are several high-rise buildings, which are also scattered, and they are particularly conspicuous among the courtyard walls.

This is the hundred-year-old clan, how many winds and rains have been seen in the closed door in the middle? This door, not to mention the county, I am afraid that the government and the road may not be opened.

Zhang Han stood outside the east corner gate, this is the access control for the people in Zhang Fuzhong, several people sat on the bench and guarded, squinting at Zhang Han and a few people, and a few people who had just run over were also standing near the corner gate, with a bad look on their faces.

Through the corner door, it seems to see that there are many long companions running back and forth on the side of the main hall, as well as the figure of the maid and the woman, and then look at the sedan chairs and carriages and horses parked outside the corner door, Zhang Han then woke up, no wonder several gentlemen just came to press himself, it turned out that he was here to feast on Zhang Yin, and invited a few to come by the way.

He waited with peace of mind, there was public opinion pressure on the ancestral hall, and there were promised benefits, if Zhang Yin was not so stupid that his brain was broken, this matter should be over.

After about a quarter of an hour, Zhang Xuezeng came over with a disillusioned face, waving his hand more than a dozen steps away, and closer, Zhang Xuezeng said: "The second master said that it is impossible to buy him for just two thousand silver." Brother Han, the second master is such a temperament, your side of the matter, really can't do it, just abandon the shop, take your mother back to Puzhou, although the second master doesn't help you, your family really wants to come back, and it can still be done by returning to the sect and worshipping you...... In any case, you can't shorten your mother and son to eat a bowl of rice. ”

"Under the fence, you live by pointing to the dozens of stones of grain given by the clan every year?"

Zhang Han smiled coldly, and the anger in his heart could not be suppressed.

Zhang Ran, this person, really has a very difficult temper because he doesn't eat oil and salt, he doesn't eat soft and hard.

He turned his face and made a look at Liang Xing and Yang Qiu.

The two horns immediately understood, and immediately broke into the corner gate.

"What are you looking for, looking for death?"

A few men and the nursing home immediately stood up, usually there are not so many people at the door, today is the Taiye banquet, afraid that Zhang Han will break into the banquet and make trouble, so he arranged manpower, if this is the case, and ask people to break in, then their jobs will be smashed.

"I didn't do anything, the wine and meat were fragrant, and we were hungry and begged for food. Just because you are the prime minister's doorstep, you can't stop us from singing the lotus flower? ”

Liang Hong was smiling, Yang Qiu was also smiling, only people who were familiar with them saw the coldness in the depths of the eyes of the two, the two of them just hit in, a few doors and the courtyard came to stop, three or two began to move, these two tigers are also good in the line, these doors also scared Huazi is capable, really moved, the two tigers immediately had the upper hand, Liang Xing punched fast and ruthlessly, punches to the flesh, each punch hit the other party's face, especially on the bridge of the nose, a few punches down, the scene was splashed with blood, the scene became a little terrifying.

"Murder, murder."

A doorman was punched on the bridge of his nose, instantly lost his combat effectiveness, covered his face with both hands, and felt that the bridge of his nose was soft, he knew that it was interrupted, the pain and panic, he couldn't care about his duties, and began to run around the courtyard.

Yang Qiu specializes in yin people, hitting people's lower abdomen and lower abdomen, and those who are hit by him are all hunched and jumping, like cooking shrimp in a pot.

The two horns opened the passage neatly, and Zhang Han strode quickly, shaking off Zhang Xuezeng, who was stunned.

What does it mean to have a decision, then to go in is to have a decision.

What is called courage, at this time to dare to go in is to be courageous.

Zhang Han is not reckless, if there is still a chance for things to turn around, he will be reckless if he does this, but the matter has become a dead end, and it is cowardly to go back honestly.

When it's critical, if you don't fight, you deserve to die!

Zhang Yin did not invite officials from the state to the banquet today, he has no official status now, and he may not necessarily come over if he invites people, so he is unwilling to lose face in vain.

Like an ordinary squire, he slammed the current officials, and Zhang Yin never did such a thing.

Feng Pangong's grandson really disdains this.

The main hall of his house is very large, the drip eaves, five bays, the cloister is long and exquisite, the courtyard in front of the main hall is also large, the large square bricks are paved, and under the drip eaves are two large water tanks side by side, which are full of water, which is used for fire prevention.

There are begonia trees and various flowers planted in the courtyard, as well as a few plum trees, other flowers are gone, but the plum has not yet bloomed, and the flower trees are full of flower bones, emitting a burst of fragrance.

There are dozens of tables in the lobby...... It is not that the lobby of the Zhang family can be so big that dozens of round tables can be placed, the Zhang family's generations of official gentry still abide by the rules of the early years, and eat at separate tables, which is not the popular Eight Immortals Table or Round Table nowadays.

In front of each guest, there is a delicate table, and then there is a pot of wine and a few dishes, a beautiful woman holds a pipa in her arms, sits on a high stool, and softly plays and sings in front of the lobby door, everyone shakes their heads, and the atmosphere is excellent.

At this time, Zhang Han kicked in.

Behind him, two Lama Hu and a group of menzi guards also rushed over, still fighting as they walked.

The disciples were all beaten like pigs' heads, their robes were tattered, several of their faces were covered with blood, and their noses were lying on their stomachs softly, Liang Xing and Yang Qiu could hardly see the change, and Liang Xing still had that indifferent smile on his face.

Today's matter, if it is not resolved, they will definitely be sent to the official, and it is a sure thing to hit the board and go to the prison cell, but these ordinary people are afraid of this, but these bullies are playing the board as if nothing happened, and going to prison should also be a vacation, but they have no old knowledge in Puzhou, and they will inevitably suffer some crimes if they are imprisoned.

In such a mess, the wine in the hall couldn't be drunk, and the song of the courtesan couldn't be played, with a snow-white melon seed face, and a pair of eyes looked at Zhang Han.

"Zhang Han has seen the second master."

Of course, Zhang Yuan was sitting in the middle seat, he was very thin, less than seventy years old, but he was already white, his back was bowed, and he looked old.

The rich people in these years can still guarantee nutrition, and Zhang Ran can live to such an age, if it is a common person, don't say that he can't live, if he can live to more than sixty, his waist can't be straightened at all, Zhang Ran is still good.

At this time, Zhang Yan looked angry, twisted the gray beard on his chin, and looked at Zhang Han silently.

The kid in front of him is indeed the descendant of his cousin, Zhang Yuan can see it at a glance.

In retrospect, Zhang Yun is also a smart person, but he is one level behind in reading, and he has never been lifted.

The context of the Zhang family seems to have been damaged because of the fact that Zhang Taizheng and Zhang Jiazheng's brothers were promoted to the Jinshi together, not only Zhang Yun did not win the promotion, but Zhang Yin only stopped at lifting people, never won the Jinshi, and the collateral clansmen also rarely had high schools.

The Zhang Han in front of him, a handsome young man, with a full aura on his face, a firm gaze in his eyes, and a generous demeanor, although he was a person who broke into the table, he could not see the slightest panic and nervousness on his face, but seemed to be a distinguished guest who was invited in.

Thinking about the virtue of his own children, and then looking at Zhang Han in front of him, the original dissatisfaction in Zhang Yuan's heart was ignited like hot oil.

After fighting with the lobby brother for half his life, he finally ran Zhang Yundou, relying on his own identity, Zhang Yin thought that he was far worse than Zhang Yun in terms of human sophistication and business, and now there is no one among his nephews and nephews, if this Zhang Han comes back, which one of his side is someone's opponent?

In the cold winter, thousands of miles away, and such a talent, Zhang Yin's heart is not the idea of loving talents, but the jealousy is even stronger.
