[63] Saddle cart

When Ding Baozhen heard this, he opened the triangular eyes that he had been squinting, and said with a burst of light in his eyes: "When a man is alive, he should make a career vigorously, be an official and a marquis, and be famous in the world!"

You can take out 100,000 taels just so that Guo Jixiu doesn't bother you, are you short of money? Without an identity, what's the use of earning more money!

If you have an official body, how dare Guo Jixiu touch you?

Yao Fan, as long as you come to the machine, the position of the general office will be yours sooner or later. ”

Yao Fan has the advantage of being a traverser, knowing that Ding Baozhen has been working in Shandong for a short time, and he is determined to make trouble, how can he be confused by such a small profit, and immediately opened the topic and said: "The younger generation has already found someone Zhang Luo to naturalize, and plans to donate an official body to come out." ”

Ding Baozhen said contemptuously: "What's the use of donating officials!" How can a big husband come out without power? There are 257,400 alternate officers in my Great Qing Officials' Department! You have to take a turn, unless you smash a lot of silver down, it's harder than climbing to the sky! ”

Yao Fan said: "I only need to be an official to protect myself, but I don't dare to ask for anything that is lacking, otherwise I will go up as a donor, and I just want to get back the money I donated to the official, and I don't know how much ink I have to be greedy."

I am a mortal, and it is inevitable that there will be morality on both sides, and when the person is placed in the middle, I dare not say that I can make an exception after becoming an official and become a clean official. ”

Ding Baozhen admired Yao Fan's honesty very much, tilted his head to look at Yao Fan, and thought: "If this Yao Fan can say such things, he is a hundred times stronger than those people in the officialdom who spend all day long, thinking about donating a real shortage." Those who are hungry for profit can give their wives and children, their parents and mothers in order to make a shortage. ”

"Yao Fan, the old man values you very much, if you come to help me, I won't charge you a tael of silver and help you do it, whether it's Guo Jixiu's matter, whether it's donating to the official and taking the vacancy, and whether you're suspected of smuggling, it's all for you."

When Yao Fan heard that he was involved in smuggling, his heart suddenly chuckled.

Ding Baozhen said: "I heard that you are very active in Qingdao, and you are suspected of smuggling. I sue you, as long as I don't care about you, you only discipline your business to make trouble! Then Hu Xueyan also borrowed money from a foreigner's bank and transferred the money to the Qing Dynasty, such lawlessness, do you think Zuo Zongtang can be embarrassed by him?

I also know that smuggling along the coast is very rampant at the moment, but you remember, there is a big difference between saying this word with me and not saying it without me! ”

Yao Fan was really moved, he could hear Ding Baozhen's eagerness to seek talent, this kind of appreciation was heartwarming. But Yao Fan does not have three heads and six arms, if he stays in Jinan, what will happen to the rebellion plan that is being implemented step by step at Qingdaokou?

After thinking about it for a while, Yao Fan had an idea and said, "My lord, how much can I know about astronomy and geography, physical chemistry, and mechanical arithmetic?" If you really want to do this foreign affairs, you have to rely on the support of the whole family of my Yao family, and the key is to quietly get you a good opportunity in the West.

My lord, if the foreigners knew that I was an official in the Great Qing Dynasty as the sister-in-law of the Yao family, making gunpowder, guns, and bullets to help the Great Qing Kingdom get rid of its dependence on them and help the Great Qing Kingdom become self-reliant, would they still sell me the important machine of the Yao family? ”

When Ding Baozhen heard this, he suddenly came to his senses and thought:

"Yes, this Yao Fan is not so much about foreign affairs, but as an internal response that I inserted in the foreigner's house in the Qing Dynasty! If you say that this role is in the big way, then it will go to the sea! Rather than just letting him and Xu Jianyin run the machine together, it is better to continue to use him in the dark. ”

The more Ding Baozhen thought about it, the more he felt that this was the right way, and when he thought of the huge role that the family behind Yao Fan could play in intelligence, technology, and machine for the Qing Kingdom, his heart suddenly brightened, and he was immediately relieved that Yao Fan was unwilling to be an official of the bureau.

"Good! Good! Good! Ding Baozhen said hello three times in a row.

"Yao Fan, you have the intention of repaying in your heart, and the official is very relieved! Remember what you said today! Help me do things in the coming days. ”

After that, Ding Baozhen took out the silver ticket from his sleeve, put it aside, and said resolutely: "This 100,000 taels is rewarded by the official, you take it, and help Xu Jianyin purchase the machine, and I will accept the other gifts." ”

Yao Fan stammered when he listened.

"Nima! This is obviously my filial piety to you, okay!

You said reward me, then how can I repay you the favor of 100,000 taels of silver from the governor of a province? Lao Ding, are you from a joke joker? ”

Ding Baozhen got up and said simply: "The Li family brothers are in the East Courtyard, you go to see them, and eat together in the evening." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Yao Fan finally fooled the past, so he took back the silver ticket and followed Ding's family to the East Courtyard.

Ding Baozhen returned to the inner house, sat on a chair and gasped, the weather was too hot, and a conversation had exhausted him.

A maid stood on the side and fanned him, and the eldest son Ding Ti often sat on the chair next to him, with an excited face: "Dad, what is the origin of this Yao Fan?" The gift is very rich and fresh, there is a two-foot-high jade Buddha inside, and it is covered with a crystal box, and there is a jade Ruyi, a jade cabbage, only these three things, I am afraid that it is not less than 10,000 taels. ”

He swallowed his saliva and said: "I opened the crystal box and looked, the jade inside was warm and smooth, and it was not as cold as Hetian white jade or Kunlun green jade, it was really a material that I had never seen before."

There are also some foreign pancreas, which are much better than the alkaline pancreas commonly sold on the market, and they smell fragrant, which is definitely the best grade!

It's just that there are still some things, which look exquisite, wrapped in a crystal sleeve, but inside is a cloth, and there is a pimple at one end, which says heaven, I really can't understand it, and I don't know what it is for. ”

Ding Baozhen said: "You have written it down." ”

Ding Ti often said: "Naturally, I wrote it down, our family received gifts, and the pen and pen have accounts." ”

Ding Baozhen said: "You don't understand something, show it to me." ”

So Ding Tichang instructed his subordinates to take the gift from Yao Fanjin, and Ding Baozhen looked at it and couldn't understand it.

"Don't worry about this foreign Shizi for now, you go and tell the kitchen, work hard tonight, and when you go back to eat, you go and ask Yao Fan, what is this thing and what is it for."

Ding Ti often said: "I have already sent someone to instruct, Dad, whether to eat at Yamen or go to the house in Junmen Lane to eat at night." ”

"Eat at home, you bring all the gifts back."

"Yes"

………………

Yao Fan saw the three members of the Li family in the east courtyard of the governor's yamen, and was led into the house to drink tea before sitting down, Li Jingshu immediately said to Yao Fan: "Brother Yao, you really broke the cost and sent so many things. ”

Yao Fan said with a smile: "Whatever is polite, it is for you to eat on the road." ”

Li Jingfang asked: "Brother Yao, don't hide it, our brother didn't understand your generous gift after reading it for a long time, he only knew that the gold paper in the crystal box was wrapped in Western snacks, but what was in the crystal sleeve?" ”

Yao Fan came to his senses and said, "You're talking about folding umbrellas, right?" You bring it, and I'll open it for you. ”

So Yao Fan pulled out and opened a heaven folding umbrella from the transparent plastic cover in front of the three members of the Li family.

Seeing that a small stick was enlarged into a huge umbrella, the silver fan and the purple fan complemented each other with luxury and luxury, and the whole umbrella was like a handicraft with magic, and the three people who saw it were dumbfounded.

Li Jingxuan was the little girl's heart, and immediately took out another handful of the six fans sent by Yao Fan, opened the gourd in the same way, and smiled happily.

"The number of things sent by Brother Yao is the most interesting, such a clever umbrella is really something that only foreigners can think of."

Yao Fan immediately corrected: "This is not a foreigner!" It is my Yao family's predecessor Ming, it is the Chinese Ming!

And the world's first umbrella is also known by the Chinese! In 1747, the Englishman Hanwei brought an umbrella from China to England, causing a sensation, because before that, the British had never seen an umbrella, and the nobles generally did not go out when it rained, otherwise they had to rely on four servants to hold up a square curtain with poles at the four corners to avoid the rain. ”

Yao Fan silently worshiped the Chinese ancestors in his heart, indeed! Chinese not only understand the umbrella, but also the folding umbrella was also made in 1957 by an old professor at Beijing Normal University, the reason why he is called the old professor, because his surname is Lao, called Yanruo. After folding the umbrella, it immediately swept the world, making the lives of all mankind better. Chinese have never lacked creative power!

Listening to Yao Fan's explanation, the three sons of the Li family were all proud.

Li Jing said excitedly: "Yes! I also heard that it was Lu Banming's umbrella! It's just that I didn't know before, it turns out that foreigners use umbrellas are also passed by us Chinese! ”

As soon as the three of them were excited, they immediately opened all the six umbrellas given by Yao Fan, and six small silver flowers suddenly bloomed in the room, including sky blue, purple red, light green, orange yellow, and bright red......

Yao Fan snickered in his heart when he saw it, and hurriedly taught the three boys to put away the umbrella. So the three of them put away the umbrellas one by one with great interest, and carefully put them into the umbrella cover, obviously very fond of them.

Li Jingshu asked Yao Fan: "Brother Yao, have you seen Lord Ding?" ”

"Yes."

"What did Master Ding say?"

"Lord Ding asked me to stay and help him run the airport, but I pushed it because my family was too busy with business."

Hearing Yao Fan say this, Li Jingshu was slightly disappointed.

Li Jingfang said: "Everyone has their own ambitions, and if you talk about a mere machine, it's really not a big background, so Brother Yao will push it." ”

Yao Fan said: "But I have promised Lord Ding to help him purchase machines from the West, so I don't want to teach the foreign company to take advantage." ”

So the four of them chatted for a while, and Yao Fan boasted that Ferrero was still according to the joke of the royal dim sum, and the three of them opened it on the spot and tasted it, and immediately praised it.

The Li brothers then explained to Yao Fan that their father was Li Hongzhang.

Yao Fan was pretended to be amazed at that time, and after touting a few words about Master Li's hard work and loyalty to the country, the three of them were happy.

Then the four of them got up and went to the Ding family's compound for a banquet.

On the way, Li Jingxuan took a small car by himself, Yao Fan and Li Jingshu and Li Jingfang took the same car, and felt that the car was big and spacious.

Yao Fan said casually: "This car is magnificent and spacious, I will buy one tomorrow." ”

Li Jingfang said with a smile: "This is the Ding family's big saddle car, but it is not an ordinary small saddle car outside, Brother Yao, you can't buy it." There are three people in this car, two people with a mule and one mule to walk steadily and decently. ”

Yao Fan was puzzled: "Why can't I buy it?" Don't say three, I can afford to hire six. ”

Li Jingfang said with a smile: "Brother Yao really didn't understand this when he came back from overseas. It is necessary to know that the ordinary saddle car, everyone can sit, and the decoration is as ingenious as you want, renovate the tricks, and compete for victory.

But this is different, this is a big saddle car, it is the multiplication system of princes and nobles, full of life, honorable status, and prominent status, Brother Yao, how do you override the system? ”

Yao Fan couldn't help but call out in his heart, it's really fucked.
