Chapter 239: Shen Jing's Ambition
Seven or eight stars outside the sky, in front of the rain mountain at two or three o'clock, by the window of the small shop in the center of the lake, Gao Lingyu said in surprise.
After Shen Jing's excited and generous speech, Shen Mo opened his mouth again, wanting to say something, but he interrupted him again, and said in a loud voice: "I know what you want to say, it's no wonder it's dangerous, what if you don't come?" Hammering the table, shaking the cups and plates, Shen Jing said loudly: "But I don't care, because I don't have your ability to read, and I don't have the ability of my eldest son to fight. ”
Shen Mo smiled bitterly and wanted to speak, but he interrupted again: "I know what you want to say, you have to say that I will go to Guozijian to gild gold, and I will be an official when I come back." But ask yourself, can you afford such an official? Have you heard that an official from such a background has ever been an official who is bigger than a county order? ”
Shen Mo wanted to open his mouth again, and Shen Jing wanted to block him again: "You ......" but Shen Mo first slammed the table, making a loud 'bang', shaking the cups and plates to the ground, and said in a voice louder than Shen Jing: "Do you still let people talk?!" ”
The iron pillars and the guards dispersed the crowd of onlookers, creating enough space for the cockfighting brothers.
Shen Jing glared and said, "You are full and you don't know that hungry men are hungry, why do you say me?" ”
Shen Mo rubbed his right hand and said angrily, "Did I fucking say I wouldn't let you go?" If you still go to see Wang Zhi like a bear, I'm afraid you will have to stand up if you don't see it! ”
Shen Jing then turned his voice and said: "As long as you don't persuade me, don't tie me up to see my father, you can say anything, you can beat me." ”
"I'm afraid I won't be able to take the test if I break my hand." He scolded silently, sat down and said, "You sit down for me." Shen Jing sat down obediently.
"Take a pen and paper." Silently commanded, Tie Zhu hurriedly went to get a pen and paper, and put it on the table. Shen Mo lifted the pen and drew a cross, divided a piece of white paper into four equal parts: "Write the advantages you feel you go to in the upper left corner, the disadvantages in the upper right corner, your own advantages in the lower left corner, and the disadvantages in the lower right corner." Write as much as you want. ”
Shen Jing saw that Shen Mo didn't say death, so he picked up the pen, scratched his ears and cheeks and wrote.
Shen Mo instructed Tie Zhu again: "Find me some safflower oil, my hand is swollen." ”
Shen Jing apologized: "Don't affect the exam." ”
Shen Mo said angrily: "If you can't pass the test, I'll go to the book with you as soon as possible." ”
"That's a good idea." Shen Jing smiled and said, "It will definitely be a success to have you go." ”
After a quarter of an hour, Shen Jing finished writing, Shen Mo took it and looked at it, and saw that the benefits column read: 'Hu Zhongcheng promised, after the matter is completed, the seven-rank officials of the governor's yamen will be selected by me. At that time, even if I didn't come from the science field, no one would dare to laugh at me. Sure enough, it was Hu Zongxian's style, and he was generous, and he knocked people out in one fell swoop.
If you look at the disadvantage column, it says, 'At most, it's a death.' Shen Mo scolded: "You can see it." ”
Shen Jing said with a smile: "Don't say that the current war is chaotic, even if it is a peaceful situation, you may also be burned to death, drowned, sick and dead," said Zhengse: "No matter if you are an emperor and general, sooner or later you will have that day of complete liberation, so I feel that death is the least terrible." ”
"Crooked." Silently scolded, look at the advantages column below and wrote: 'Sharp-toothed, improvised, bold and careful, and pleasing in appearance. ’
"It's also a good thing to look good?" Shen Mo couldn't help but ask.
"Of course," Shen Jing nodded, "If people are in a bad mood when they see it, then how can they negotiate?" ”
"Far-fetched." Shen scolded silently, and then looked at the empty column of shortcomings, and said strangely: "What's the matter?" How could it not? ”
"No is no," Shen Jing rolled his eyes and said, "Do you want me to make things up?" ”
Shen Mo was convinced, and said with a smile: "In terms of the thickness of my skin, I am not as good as you." ”
"Between the two of them." Shen Jing said modestly, saying with a smile: "Now you should promise me that I will go, right?" ”
Silent and noncommittal: "Did Hu Zongxian promise you verbally, or did he set up a note?" ”
Shen Jing smiled proudly: "Of course, it is empty words, and the words are based on evidence." But I don't value this, you think, you have to hire three media and six hires to get married, and toss a good opportunity. Surely he won't succeed in negotiating such a thing at the first time, right? So you must continue to use me, are you afraid that he will break his word? ”
Shen Mo had to admit that Shen Jing's heart was indeed very good, and he was not worried that he would suffer. Then he said: "What about safety, how to ensure it?" The first two groups of people didn't see Wang Zhi yet, so they died, and they died. ”
"You don't have to worry about that." Shen Jing lowered his voice and said, "I have a cheat." Let's start with you, I have a classmate in my school, named Jiang Zhou, who is from Fenghua County, Ningbo Prefecture, and his family is a local wealthy family. ”
Shen Mo was very strange and said: "Since people are wealthy families, they should go to the government for accommodation if something happens, but they come to beg you to do something?" ”
Shen Jing's old face turned red and said: "That's the case, although I am usually very low-key and never show off, but he didn't know where to get the news, knowing that I am your cousin, he wants to beg you, the Zhejiang Patrol, to be accommodating." ”
Shen Mo knew that this was not the case, just think about those guys' one by one, he knew that he usually talked about himself. But Shen Mo is empathetic, he knows that those Engong students are not as knowledgeable, and they must compare their family wealth with each other.
Thinking of this, he suddenly understood that Shen Jing would either sink and fall in that kind of environment full of copper stench, or struggle to break free and redefine his life.
Therefore, Shen Jing is not an impulsive move, but a step taken after careful thinking, whether he can create a sky of his own depends on this crucial step. Although it is possible to fail, if this step is not taken, it is destined to sink into inaction and ruin this life.
Shen sighed, as a brother, he knew what he should do at this time.
Quickly completed the psychological construction, and asked in a deep voice: "What happened to the Jiang family?" ”
"Messenger." Shen Jing whispered: "You also know that whoever is accused of this crime now is beheaded, so the original relationship of his family has been avoided, and this guy is sick and rushed to the doctor, so he found me." ”
Shen Mo knew that this was not a 'rush to the doctor', someone must have pointed out Jiang Zhou, telling him that he had the power to inquire about any case according to the imperial history, ask for a retrial, or even try it in person, plus the relationship between him and Hu Zongxian, it was indeed a suitable savior. But he would never agree to such a thing...... It was his suggestion to crack down on the wealthy families at the beginning, if he slapped himself in the mouth, he would bring humiliation on himself, and let Hu Zongxian seize the handle.
Seeing him frowning slightly, Shen Jing smiled and said, "Don't worry, am I the kind of stupid thing who causes trouble for my brother?" He said very proudly: "I just saw an opportunity from this big trouble, and I won't cause you trouble." ”
"Oh, let's hear it." Shen Mo nodded solemnly.
"I know this Jiang Zhou, he can speak the Japanese language, and he is also very familiar with the customs and customs of Yuben, and he is even more famous when it comes to things at sea." Shen Jing said confidently: "I speculate that even if he has never been to Yueben, he has been involved in trade with Yue himself for a long time. "Because it is an island country, it basically lacked everything except volcanic earthquakes. But in recent decades, Chinese exploration has been introduced to Yueben, and with the help of this technology, Yueben has discovered large amounts of silver.
At first, the daimyo used silver ore to trade with the Ming merchants...... It is certain to be pitted to death, and basically the silver ore is sold at the price of selling cabbage. Later, I couldn't stand the loss, so I had to spend a lot of money to buy it, and learned the method of smelting silver in the Ming Dynasty.
But I have to admit that this nation's learning ability and research spirit is particularly strong, they invented the 'ash blowing method' of silver smelting method on the basis of China's smelting method, and finally produced the silver of white flowers, and the quality and utilization rate are better than that of the Ming Dynasty, and are welcomed by the Ming officials and people.
In this way, I finally have the conditions and foundation to meet the purchase of Chinese goods, so a large number of raw silk, textiles, porcelain, medicinal materials and books, at a price more than ten times that of the Ming Dynasty, a large number of people poured into the book, and the supply is still in short supply. In this way, the customers who are stupid and have always taken more money are naturally loved by everyone, so a large number of maritime merchants poured into the capital. In those years, the amount of trade between China and Spain was even greater than that of Portugal and Spain combined.
As a result, the situation of Fujian, Zhejiang and Yueben trade, and Guangxi and Western trade was formed. Since the Jiang family is from Zhejiang, it is naturally mainly based on trade with Yueben, and it is not uncommon to know the situation of Yueben.
"I just thought that it would be much safer and more reliable for us to go to Wang Zhi through such an experienced, connected, and door-to-door guy than for us to run around like headless flies." Shen Jing said with great ambition: "I went to the governor's yamen and directly asked to see Hu Zongxian, and the gatekeeper heard that I could find Wang Zhi, but he didn't stop him." After meeting Hu Zongxian smoothly, I told him about the plan, he was very interested, and he gave that condition without me making an offer, and he also said that if I can complete this task that no one else can accomplish, it means that I am extraordinary, and now the southeast is the time to employ people, and I will definitely have a great future in the future. ”
