Chapter 80: The Law Leaves No Love
finally coaxed Ai Mei Niang away, and Shan Chixia strictly ordered the subordinates in the family not to discuss the matter, and then these subordinates in the living room each rewarded two taels of silver, so they were allowed to go down.
Father Zheng asked, "Good officer, why did you go to save the owner of the Yan ship, although he is not bad to our Zheng family, but you also know that people have ideas." β
"Dad, I won't go in vain! Isn't it twenty-five thousand taels of silver? The obedient official smiled, but Daddy Zheng picked up a teacup lid next to him and threw it over, so frightened that he quickly put away the hippie smile, "Daddy, don't fight, I'll be honest." β
He broke up the risks and benefits in it, crumpled it, and told his father and Shan Chixia, including Chen Jiru and Dong Qichang, Chen Jiru and Dong Qichang have read the books he wrote countless times, and they have also learned a lot about these political things, what war is the continuation of politics! What kind of power is diplomacy! And so on, and so on, I also analyzed it for Daddy Zheng, it is impossible for the imperial court to let the military guards below resell ordnance, this thing seems dangerous, I am afraid that it is more because the two or even three parties have red eyes and silver, and in fact, they dare not move it to the table, so it is theoretically feasible to take the chestnut from the fire.
"You can't take chestnuts from the fire." Father Zheng really felt that his son was disobedient, and he would be a celebrity steadily, and he would go to the township examination in two years, and then go to the Jinshi examination in two years, this is the right way, and the obedient official persuaded him: "Daddy, this matter is really not dangerous, not to mention, our family's current house, after all, we still have to miss the good of the shipowner, the world is big, and the favor is the greatest, we can return this favor, and we can earn 25,000 taels of silver, why not?" Twenty-five thousand taels! β
The ancients still attached great importance to human favors, if it weren't for the fact that this matter might be life-threatening, Zheng Liancheng would not have said that he would stop the good officials from returning the favor of the Yan family, and 25,000 taels of silver, the wealth is moving! This is really a huge amount of money for the Zheng family, although a good official can make money by writing a book, but 25,000 taels, how long will it take to earn it back?
can not only repay the favor, but also make money, Father Zheng really hesitated, couldn't help it, just looked at Shan Chixia, Shan Chixia groaned, and said: "Just now my words are not purely coaxing Mrs. Auntie, what kind of jade dragon, I really heard of his name at the beginning, he is indeed a little chivalrous, if the young master analyzes it well, this trip is really not too dangerous." β
"Dad, wealth is in danger, not to mention that this is not much risk, your son is a bodhisattva in the womb, supported by the Dharma Protector Vajra."
Zheng Liancheng saw that his son was coming to this set of hippie smiles again, and couldn't help but reach out for the tea cup on the table, and the obedient official hurriedly slipped behind Dong Qichang, at this time Chen Jiru said: "Uncle, originally Brother Qichang and I were going to say goodbye and go home, but now it seems that I won't go back, stay and help!" Anyway, there wasn't much in the house. β
If there are parents and elders, it is strange that he will not be old and shaved him, he does not have any elders above him, and staying to help is also considered a good friendship with the family, as for Dong Qichang, there is still an old mother, it is not good not to go back, how can I not say it, I am sorry to say to Father Zheng: "Uncle, it stands to reason that Fengzhang is like my brother, I ...... it"
Zheng Liancheng hurriedly shook his hand, "What did you say about the virtuous nephew, you still have an old mother, you should go home for the New Year, this is filial piety." "Saying that, I told Shan Chixia next to me that I must seal a hundred taels of silver for Young Master Dong, and the obedient official next to me heard it,, one hundred taels, Dad, as far as you spend money, no matter how much you earn, it is not enough for you to spend, and I am not allowed to ask for money, I think that when I earn 25,000 taels back, I am afraid it will not be enough for you to do it for a few years.
After pacifying Daddy Zheng, he asked the big man to send Daddy to the back to rest, and the obedient official asked Xiaoqian to go back to the room, and at this time there were four people left in the living room, and he sank his face.
Shan Chixia couldn't help but say, "Good official, are you really planning to go?" In a hurry, they even forgot the word young master, Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru were stunned, what do you mean? Isn't this trip as riskless as Feng Zhang's analysis?
"Uncle Shan, I'm definitely going to go." The good official smiled bitterly on his face, the words he said earlier are okay to coax his father, but it is not okay to coax Shan Chixia, why? Dad Shan is also an old fighter, and he is a good brother with the Japanese Bandits, and the Wolves don't kill people and talk about faithfulness, is this still a Wolves? If this matter is really said to be in the future, whether it is the understanding of the good official in the future generations or the understanding of the book in the present life of Shan Chixia, it is almost certain that people are preparing people and goods.
Listening to the good official's careful explanation at this time, Chen Jiru couldn't help but be anxious, "Then you still promise others?" The obedient official smiled bitterly, "I owe people family favors." β
"It's sick." Chen Jiru couldn't help but scold him, "You scolded someone's daughter with a mouth full of feces, and you have to risk your life to save her Lao Tzu, you won't be talking nonsense!" As he spoke, he reached out to test the forehead of the good officer.
In the Ming Dynasty, especially in the south of the Yangtze River, where commerce was in full swing, it was a joke to let scholars and businessmen talk about human feelings. Even those who give real estate title deeds to the scholars, in fact, are just borrowing the status of the scholars' tax exemption, and may really let these talents take care of their own business? It's nothing more than that I'm hanging in your name, giving you two money every month, and don't really think that you are my master if you're okay.
Every time he slaughters dogs, most of them are scholars. This sentence is not for fun, and it does not mean that scholars really do not talk about morality, but that there are not many people who think it is worth preaching morality to them. For example, now Chen Jiru, Dong Qichang and Zheng Guofan, the three of them are really Wang Ba looking at mung beans - right eyes. After getting along for a few months, it must be okay to entrust with your family name, but if you let Chen Jiru, an eight-year-old genius who became famous all over the world, and Dong Qichang, who also won the test of Yayuan in Nanzhili Township two years ago, and a businessman who only has Yongle Tongbao in his eyes look at each other, and entrust each other's surnames, is it possible?
It's like in "Water Margin", the little whirlwind Chai Jin, a huge name, a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, has an iron scroll to avoid death, why did this kind of person not become the boss, but Song Jiang, the black guy, became the boss! The little whirlwind Chai Jin is actually very good, very righteous, such as with Song Jiang, Song Jiang sent Wu Song home for a long time and did not return, Chai Jin rode a horse and a lantern at night to look for Song Jiang, looking for it, full of joy. And Wu Song lived in Chai Jin Zhuangzi for several months, and he was sick and malaria, and no one asked.
Why are the two treated so differently? Because Song Jiang is the secretary in the yamen, commonly known as [Master Zhusi], he is a literati, and Wu Songwu is the second master! Speaking of a capital, it can be measured by the ancient [good and low], but it is a low-status untouchable.
Is it possible for the little whirlwind Chai Jin to put down his body and talk to a pariah? Of course it is impossible, naturally I have to deal with people like Song Gongming, the master of the charge, but the black guy Song Jiang is willing to put down his body, and when he meets the black whirlwind Li Kui, he first sends a silver ingot of ten taels and says [If you want money, just ask me to take it], and when you meet Wu Song [look at a character like him, I am full of joy, and I will definitely invite him to take a seat], and send Wu Song home is also the first [ask Song Qing to take a piece of ten taels of silver to send to Wu Song], and he is willing to pull down his face to make friends with Haojie, so that there are countless heroes from the bottom who are willing to work for him.
However, Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru are obviously not Song Gongming, even if they read the books of good officials and understand some capital operation, their attitude towards businessmen is how to control the world as a force in their hands, rather than making friends with businessmen and talking about feelings.
Therefore, Chen Jiru said that the obedient official was sick, although he was a madman, and he abandoned Confucian clothes in history, it does not mean that he is not a scholar, in fact, he begged for flowers to pay tribute to Lu Ji and Lu Yun more than a thousand years ago, and it was also because these two were famous writers in ancient times, why didn't he go to pay tribute to the common people who had frozen bones on the road!
was touched on the forehead by Chen Jiru, and the obedient official knew that he was just expressing dissatisfaction, but he had to smile bitterly, "I scolded her, it's better than if she offended some high-ranking official and eunuch and was exterminated!" β
Chen Jiru sneered, "Do you scold others or look up to others?" Brother, I didn't mean you, just scolded, and simply sent the letter to the yamen of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but a businessman, like a dog, died and died. If you are afraid that there is no way out in the officialdom, this matter is on me, and I can also find a way out of the various yamen brothers in Nanjing, there are many disciples and old disciples of Xu Ge at the beginning, always give me some thin noodles, copy her home, if you are five or five, how can you share the profits, and the problem is solved. β
The obedient official was cold sweat on his forehead by what he said, and then he remembered that these two are the fellow villagers of the old Xu Jie, the former cabinet, the township party! Especially Chen Jiru, who became famous all over the world because he was praised by Xu Jie, Xu Jie's old age, a little protΓ©gΓ© or something is not unusual, on a theory, it is equivalent to those people's junior brothers, in this era, it is a very close relationship, as long as there is a handle in hand, it is really not too difficult to find a businessman's trouble.
It's just that you're too decisive! In a word, the Yan family has been sentenced to death. He couldn't help but stab Chen Jiru, "Sure enough, he is a ruthless scholar." Chen Jiru didn't think he was angry, but was a little proud, "The sage said: Officials are not personal relatives, the law is not loved, there is nothing to do up and down, only the law is." The affairs of the world are all said to be justified, and the mother-in-law says that the mother-in-law is reasonable, and if you want to arbitrate, you naturally have to take out the momentum of holding Mount Tai to the top......" said, turning his palm, hehe laughed twice, "Don't look at the fierceness that you shout all day long, Fengzhang, you!" It's still too young, by the way, it's been a young year, and it's fourteen years old, tell my brother, have you grown hair! β
the groove.
The obedient official was said by him, his forehead was erect, and he couldn't help but compare a middle finger to him, "I have a bottom line in life, unlike you, who is ruthless ......and ruthless."
"I'm just speaking from a fair standpoint, unlike you, do you want to be extrajudicial just because you know that Miss Yan family? Feng Zhang, you are not a qualified official, I think even if you become an official in the future, you are likely to be a big corrupt official. Chen Jiru continued to sell his mouth, and the obedient official didn't bother to tell him, this guy belongs to quarreling in order to win you, and he has to make three points of reason if he doesn't care, and it is really unwise to quarrel with him.
