Chapter Ninety-Three: Accumulation 2 (Text)

I thanked and entertained these two people for the hospitality they sent to the door, and by the way, I inquired about the things in the territory of Borneo over the years.

It's nothing more than my cheap father, who is still healthy, and can still lead a team to hunt in the mountains and forests, or go to remote domains to patrol, but the people around him have changed more powerfully, and many familiar old people are either retired or released, or like Chu Bai, they find a way to be sent out and marginalized.

And no matter where he goes, he always carries my cheap brother with him, and he looks quite deliberately cultivated.

But because of the three or four generations in the collar, the main attitude and position of several senior or powerful retainers have not changed, and my younger brother, who came out halfway, wants to covet the position of successor, it is not so easy, at least the genealogy of the sect is not so easy to change.

Especially after I've come back safely.

You know,

At the beginning, the system of these overseas feudal domains originated from the "Zhou Li. The retro revision of "Feudal", that is, the princes who were about to divide the feudal domain, under the leadership of the lord Liang Gong, gathered in front of the Lin De Hall of the Daming Palace in Shangjing, and vowed to be the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and opened up the story of the four Yi and nine sides.

Since ancient times, the dynasty has been almost unshakable from the heavenly family to the small people, and the historical tradition of the inheritance system is also derived from this "Zhou Rite Commentary".

Especially in these overseas vassals, which were pioneered by the Tang people and their descendants, as the ruling upper echelons of relatively minority groups for a long time, and formed the basis of pyramidal rule with various naturalized immigrants and local tamed native people and slaves, they were especially emphasized and valued, as the bloodline and lineage of the people of each country, purity and legitimacy.

This is also an important guarantee and bond to maintain the surname of the princes of the Celestial Empire for a long time, and to maintain the sense of superiority and cohesion of the princes of the Celestial Empire for a long time.

Of course, in the history of overseas feudal domains, it is not uncommon for the so-called mixed blood or descendants of a lowly matrilineal origin, or after the name of an illegitimate child to inherit the family business.

However, this premise is that the main family has no other children, including women, or blood relatives of the same generation, and there is a real risk of extinction and the danger of being seized, so this possibility will be considered, and it is often accompanied by large or small turmoil and turmoil.

Therefore, under this traditional system and inertia,

The good thing is that my position is not so easily shaken, unless I get the exact news that I have died, even if I am a cheap daddy. No matter how eccentric you are, you can't do whatever you want, so you can only play a slow and subtle water mill, accumulate enough mistakes, and change the views of the countrymen and retainers, and then you can naturally propose the possibility of changing the heir.

In fact, the news that I returned to Guangfu safely was enough to ⊥ my cheap brother's side, and the advantages accumulated before were instantly gone. This is also one of the reasons and backgrounds for these two people to come to me with great fanfare and make their positions clear.

The corresponding disadvantages and disadvantages are that even if I succeed as the head of the family in the future, I will have to show enough courage and achievements to make a difference among the retainers and countrymen who tend to be traditional and conservative, such as spending more energy and time to promote those ideas and propositions that seem to be quite unusual.

Therefore, this is also one of the reasons why my predecessor jumped out of the disputes and patterns confined to a corner of West Borneo and ran to Guangfu to seek another development, as long as I made achievements in Guangfu, where the center of the Southern Dynasty was located, and obtained the corresponding position, the disputes and contradictions in the domain would have no impact on me, nor would they have any meaning.

But "I" really want to continue to stay, the cheap dad is an eyesore in front of him, and there will always be no less villains around him who are willing to speculate, all kinds of contradictions and suspicions, and they will also be pushed to become some kind of focus and chess pieces in the differences between the head of the family and the retainers.

For "me" as a traverser, house fighting is a very boring and boring annoying thing, but I have to face it, which is undoubtedly a rather painful and tangled thing, those retainers and the support from my maternal uncle's family, but they also have their own corresponding interests and positions in it, but it is not necessarily what I want.

Here, "I" can not only avoid malice and disturbances from within the domain, but also have a new world with a wider sky. Most of the methods used by ordinary house fights to win the heirs are somewhat beyond the reach of this plane.

After all, in the domain, it may be possible to make a big mistake, and some accidents and variables created will be put on the big stage of Guangfu, which is a mixture of various forces, which is another matter.

Of course, this reason is because of the fact that the former "I" grew up with a child, and the long can also be used to prepare for the mixed-race maid who warms the bed and physiological enlightenment, and after the "accident", he left some kind of lessons and! Experience.

After some talks, they were quite pleased with my "change" and had a tendency to burst into tears

You must know my predecessor, but I led a group of people to Guangfu to study and buy real estate, and I have a tendency to start from scratch and stand on my own, so I am also quite insensitive to the things in the domain every day.

According to them,

And in the days when I was missing, the people in the domain also missed my benefits very much, and they looked more and more unpleasantly at the illegitimate child who came out of the way.

After all, although my predecessor was a bit maverick, at least I was able to start my own business, and at the same time promote my retainers and countrymen to expand their business and make money together, and I was able to solve the employment problem in the domain by the way.

In contrast, my cheap younger brother, who was limited to his early birth environment and education level, will only win people's hearts with empty promises and expectations for the future under the favoritism and favor of the old man, but he does not know it, which will make the retainers and the countrymen worried, after all, he has no foundation to fulfill these conditions.

And there are so many resources in the territory, and when he comes to power, in order to cash in on these things, there will inevitably be people who will suffer losses in the redistribution of interests, which is also the reason why those conservative and moderate drivers feel uneasy.

Otherwise, he would take out the savings of the family master's inner treasury to buy people's hearts, but if he does this, it will be a typical behavior of a loser, and the Luo clan will also be uneasy, and it is impossible for the clan to sit idly by.

The so-called world is the blue world, at least on the surface, after I became the owner, it did not have much impact on their current situation, and there may even be benefits.

Therefore, a certain collective behavior of expressing attitudes and positions has been promoted, and this time it is obviously just a precursor.

This discussion lasted until it was dark and the lights were on before saying goodbye, and then re-entering the door the next day.

A mess of things was moved in, and soon the few warehouses I cleared out were mostly stuffed, including bottles and cans left behind by my predecessor and various finished and semi-finished products, and I even looked like a model of a steam engine, as well as a voltaic battery and a hand-cranked coil set or something.

The most conspicuous are several models of sailboats wrapped in cloth, several groups of tin and iron soldiers arrayed apparently handmade, and a small cannon model made of water-milled pure copper, with accurately proportioned gun carriages, fire doors and threaded bolts, which look like some kind of high-imitation small toys sold on Taobao in later generations, which have been filled with gunpowder and projectiles and fired traces.

There are also all kinds of books and notes, all of which my predecessors have collected one after another at various costs and channels, and there are more than a dozen large boxes, but they have not yet had time to open them.

In this way, it seems that some of my schedules can be accelerated.

But most of them were brought by these two acquaintances, and all kinds of daily necessities and utensils for clothing, food, housing, and transportation, except for a few old things with obvious personal traces of mine, were all new and new. There are also gifts from former retainers and maternal uncles, showing favor and congratulatory gifts.

There are dozens of styles of clothes in the cold and summer seasons alone, with different colors and patterns, and even fox fur and beavers, otter furs that are not used at all in Guangfu, more than a dozen pieces of bedding, sweat towels, shoes, socks, belt pendants, and nothing counts.

In addition, there are more than 100 materials for cutting and sewing silk yarn and silk yarn for daily use, from the common South China Sea cotton, Tianzhu yarn, Cantonese kapok cloth to rare bird feather weaving, velvet and other foreign imports.

There are seven or eight kinds of silver or gilt sets of eating utensils and tea utensils, spoons and chopsticks alone; The mahogany panels, tables, large and small cabinets, and couch chairs inlaid with broken agate luodian mica are matched with sets according to different purposes, and there are at least a dozen rooms, as well as purely decorative vases, standing pots, cloth barriers, screen fans, calligraphy and paintings, curtains, curtain walls, bonsai and flowers, and other miscellaneous ornaments, all of which are calculated according to the set.

Just an assembled lacquered bed takes up most of the room, and under the bed and at the head and end of the bed, there are all kinds of cabinets for storing large objects and drawers for small items, enough for seven or eight people to roll over on it. I squatted on the top of the head that I used to test the bed, and it took a long time to hear a bang and an oops

In a pile of houses, I even saw a pair of large soup barrels made of nanmu, the inner diameter was at least ten feet tall, and if you wanted to get in, you had to use at least a ladder to get in. However, in their words, there are many mountains in the territory, and there are also the most miscellaneous lumbers, so the cost is only the labor of cutting and transporting, and the money of carpenters for processing

There are also a lot of snacks that I have liked since I was a child, and there are more than a dozen bags of fruits; The daily firewood, rice, sauce, vinegar, salt, sugar and wine that are enough for more than a month are also loaded with at least a few carts.

What Zhancheng rice, Tianzhu glutinous, what sala stalks, Wa national rice, what Monda wax peach white carbon, Hongji Port's anthracite coal, what Luocheng wind wax, what Jiulongjiang honey fruit, what lion country crisp honey, there are always a lot of people who can't see it

It was only three boats used to transport these things, and some of them were damaged due to the wind and waves, and they needed to be replaced.

I suddenly had a little tearful illusion, from a dormitory bachelor with plenty of food and clothing to a big dog who opened his eyes overnight, and felt like a big dog who came to reach out for food and open his mouth as long as he opened his eyes.

There are also more than a dozen slaves and maids, and it is said that because I don't like to use the hands brought in the collar, they are all familiar hands bought in the famous human market through Jiaozhou, Anbei Province.

There are cooks, tailors, gardeners, and coachmen, who can speak a mouthful of words and Cantonese dialects, know a few words, and master more than one life skill. are all middle-aged uncles and aunts and the like, because of the skillful tacit understanding of serving the master's family, it can only be cultivated for at least ten to twenty years, and they are in the best state.

They have been serving people for generations, and it is only in recent years that because of the decay of the main family, they have to be released and sold to reduce expenses.

Under my glance, their eyebrows and eyes are all polished by life and are submissive and low-minded, standing there with their hands tied, it naturally gives people a feeling of settling down,

Of course, the main reason is:

With the bitter words of Cai Liao, the old minister, the place where I am currently settled is really simple and narrow, and they are all rough men who can only be used to watch the door, with a sense of security, but the quality of life is worrying, and there is only one personal little maid in the daily life, which is too unorthodox, and there is no privacy and dignity at all as the main family.

This is the basic superior, as a minimum symbol of daily order and prestige.

With such intimate considerations, I don't know what to say, my predecessor was entangled in what Cheng dùah, so I would put down these conditions and environment, and go to the north to play a study tour in the name of lurking.

Looking at the changed residence, I feel like a child who has been given a new gadget, and I can't wait to find someone to share and show off.

Maybe you can host a small reception tea party.
