Chapter 165: Reward
On this day, Fan Jingjing's Fan family manor welcomed two groups of guests at the same time.
A group of people were led by the Niu family, and the other group of people were people from the palace, they seemed to meet and walked together in other places, and some family members naturally did not dare to walk in front of the palace people. Although the Niu family is led by Niu Shijin's mother, Niu Feiling, but beating the dog to see the master, the people in the palace represent the face of the palace, but there is no concept of walking behind the Niu family.
What's more, the people who came from the palace had the holy decree in their hands. On behalf of the emperor to convey the will or Huang later to convey the will of Yi.
Usually when eunuchs come to the Fan family manor, the situation is more casual, and their visit this time is obviously more solemn.
Niu Feiling knew that Fan Jingjing didn't seem to know much about many of the rules of the Tang Dynasty, so although she didn't dare to go ahead, she secretly sent someone to contact the people of the Fan family manor, and asked the people of the Fan family manor to go back quickly, and let Fan Jingjing put the incense case to welcome the holy decree.
Niu Feiling's arrangements inside and outside the Fan family's manor, although he does not understand 100% of the inside, understands 70% or 80%, but he is still clear.
She knew that along the way to Chang'an to Fan's Manor, there were many industries invested by Fan's Manor, so many people were actually sent by Fan's Manor, or run by people sent out.
Niu Feiling didn't need to rush to the front of the eunuch to be able to inform the people of the Fan family's manor.
And the people of the Fan family manor, walking next to them will not be noticed, and naturally they will not be punished by the eunuchs.
Speaking of which, the emperor's care for the people is much more than these nouveau riche, the people can not pay attention to the rules, in fact, the people have no understanding of the rules, but if the noble family does not pay attention to the rules, they will be severely punished, because once the nobles do not pay attention to the rules, they can do too much, and the impact on the society is too great.
So if it wasn't the Fan family's manor, or the rest of the idlers and others walking in front, it would be difficult to say if it was the Niu family.
Because Niu Feiling is here, it also represents the face of the Niu family, and there is no way to remain incognito.
Their places of residence are all in the Fan Family Manor, and the salaries they receive are also given by the Fan Family Manor, and they like this, which means that they are part of the Fan Family Manor group.
For them, most of them have no family to rely on as a background, so the Fan family manor has become their biggest support and background.
So when the eunuch arrived at the Fan family's manor, Fan Jingjing had already greeted him.
The eunuch didn't say anything when he saw it, and began to read the holy decree.
In it, Fan Jingjing's credits, no matter how big or small, were presented in front of Fan Jingjing's eyes one by one.
In fact, the credit that can be displayed on the holy decree is actually not small, and if it is put on others, each of them can make them knighted or promoted to make a fortune.
You must know that the fabrics in this era are very expensive, and the fabrics used by the emperor are specially made, each cloth is very expensive, of course, it can be saved, the emperor uses more money than others, and in some aspects it also needs to be magnificent, but a few more words, or a few words less, harmless places, of course, can be saved.
The span of time became very long, Fan Jingjing was very surprised, it turned out that Li Shimin remembered everything, but he just didn't say it. He has done a lot of things for the Tang Dynasty, although he doesn't say it, but he is also an accountant in his heart, and often scolds Li Shimin in his heart for being a stingy ghost.
As for Li Shimin's wife, she is even more stingy, helping him educate his children, and refusing to even give out any money. The Fan family manor can live more easily now.
What really surprised Fan Jingjing was that even the things he didn't notice were listed as credits, and even the credits were not smaller than other credits, it seems that the concept of the Tang Dynasty and Fan Jingjing's concept are really very different, fortunately, she thinks it is the place of credit, Li Shimin did not cover it up, otherwise this difference in judgment standards will make Fan Jingjing feel frightened.
"I'm going to have to be careful about things that I think are normal, but they think they're very important, which means that if I do something in the bad way, they think it's a great sin, but I don't think it's a big thing.
The difference in the concept of the times is really too much, and the difference in the concept of the times in another place may make a person be beaten.
The difference between crossing into the Tang Dynasty is really too big.
For example, if you eat pork in front of people of a certain religion, it is a heinous thing, and even if you cook pork for each other to eat, it is estimated that two people can start fighting. And it's still not going to die. ”
Receiving a holy decree made Fan Jingjing sweat profusely, she thought of too many things, but in the end she came back to her senses, because the reward given by the emperor was very interesting.
She felt that someone must have made a small report to the emperor about what she had noticed or done before, otherwise how would the emperor know about such a trivial matter?
Fan Jingjing's eyes narrowed, thinking about whether it was her own person who went to make a small report, or someone from the Niu family, or a strange unknown person passing by on the side of the road.
But in the end, Fan Jingjing sighed, if you don't let the supreme ruler of the feudal dynasty control it, if your ability is too great, the supreme ruler has no way to feel at ease, fortunately, this era only values men, and for women, most men are used as playthings.
In law, women are not regarded as human beings, although Fan Jingjing is relatively superior, but because of gender differences, the emperor does not take Fan Jingjing seriously.
Fan Jingjing thought that if the emperor saw this era, the little girl of the martial family didn't know how the emperor would react, but when the emperor was dying, Wu Zetian seemed to be very young.
This era should not have been born yet, Wu Zetian can be said to have set off a feminist movement in the Tang Dynasty, allowing outstanding women to have a bright future, but unfortunately Wu Zetian's regime has no way to last too long in the era of male authoritarianism.
Otherwise, the girls after Wu Zetian will have more power, instead of a great backlash like later, many girls' due human rights are extremely oppressed, and even their feet are tied with disgusting strips of cloth, so that we can't even discuss it when we flee, let alone pick up knives and guns to fight the enemy, you must know that if some women are trained, there is no problem in defeating some ordinary men.
Even in the era when Fan Jingjing once lived, many women were stronger than men, not because men gave in, but because they were really powerful.
However, no matter how powerful the body is, in front of the knife and gun, it is completely useless, at this time there is not much difference between boys and girls, as long as they train well and use gun skills, girls' marksmanship can still be higher than that of boys who are generally not well trained.
As for the trained boys, comparing them with the girls, it is not necessarily who is strong and who is weak, so the country of Israel makes girls have to be forced to join the army, in addition to their small population, it is also related to their women have a strong enough physique, and there are weapons, there is no gender difference, it has a very big relationship.
No one can deny that Israel's army is so powerful that it can use a small country against the surrounding Arab countries.
In terms of system, in fact, the Tang people are Hanhu mongrels who have passed through the mixed blood of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.
They have the rationality of the Han people and the physique of the Hu people, which is more obviously different from the weaker Han people who fled to the south, and there is no problem in watching people do business, as long as they have brains, but their physical strength is obviously not as good as the Hu-Han people in the north.
Mixed-race can fully refine the excellent points of the elite, although it is also mixed-race, but the southern ethnic group was originally relatively thin and not tall, as a result of mixed-race, the Han living in the south is weaker than before, and it seems that all the essence has grown into the brain.
Most of the later dynasties, which were strong and weak in physique and brain, were literati who paid more attention to their brains, and the rise of a large number would protect their rights and interests, while the warriors lacked experience in struggle, and in the end they could only fight and kill with weapons.
But where weapons are fought and killed, the entire economy and power will slowly decline, and these people who fight and kill are Han people, and they will have a little brain, and they will not reach irreparable, but let the literati save the able-bodied people, and they will not have a bright future.
They will find a way to oppress people with strong physiques and underdeveloped heads.
In the future, the army will become a kind of national training, but it will be professionally organized to maintain a very strong army, but let everyone have the ability to have a reserve and live an ordinary life.
A knighthood is basically a position that the emperor gives you to retire from.
This is Fan Jingjing's concept of a knighthood in this era, a knighthood is basically a pension, if you have already obtained the title, and it can be passed on to future generations, then you can eat, drink, and have fun and no longer do anything.
However, the emperor is not such a good boss, and he probably still wants to give you a knighthood, that is, he wants you to work harder.
And you can't do anything, and if you don't get into trouble, he might let you eat, drink, and be merry at the knighthood, but if he catches your pigtails, he'll pull you into the water.
However, there are very few people who generally stay in the knighthood, and most of them will use this position to do a little business and increase their wealth.
Otherwise, the money given by Juewei is fixed, and it is actually very difficult to live a luxurious life, unless you are a civil official and get a knighthood, or you get a knighthood as a military attaché, and there are often a lot of people who need to be taken care of. They don't have to be kind to take care of these people, the main thing is that they feel that they have received a title that others envy, so they need to be careful so that others don't come to retaliate, so these people who have retired from the army are often important guards.
The phenomenon of hating the rich is not only in later generations, everyone wants to become a rich person, but they usually think that such a plan is more risky, so they will put these thoughts in their hearts, but once they have the opportunity, 80% of them will let go of their courage, even if they do bad things, they want to take the money in their own hands and get a better life than others.
They have the concept of doing bad things in one place, and no one will know about them in another place, and they want to fake their hukou, which is not too difficult for some people who like to do bad things.
Because they like to do bad things, they tend to pay more attention to the observation ability of other phenomena than others, as long as they observe carefully, there is no anti-counterfeiting ability at this time.
What's more, paperwork is often the simplest, and it's too simple to make a document.
All that is needed is a few craft skills, which can be done if enough craftsmen can be gathered.
In this day and age, many people will do some chores, but the craftsmanship is exquisite or not. That's what they call skill.
When repairs require too much money, people take the initiative to learn how to repair the items they need around them.
And demand is the best motivation for learning.
Fan Jingjing finally got the title of a viscount. It's just that the title of this viscount will not always be on Fan Jingjing's body, if she gives birth to a son, then this title will be replaced by her son when he becomes an adult.
It is estimated that in the emperor's eyes, Fan Jingjing, as a mother, must care very much about whether her son is promising, so she will give this title to her son, but there is no problem, and Fan Jingjing will be very happy.
Fan Jingjing thinks that her son has any ability, so she will fight for her own credit, and the credit that belongs to her should not be exploited to her son.
She died, and there was no problem in handing over the inheritance to her son, but she didn't know if the first one was a son or a daughter before she died, and she didn't think that a daughter would have the right to divide the property.
In her opinion, this title is a family property, and there is no problem in distributing it to the old nature, and the second child can naturally get more real estate and the like, if she has the second child.
And Li Shimin represents the imperial court, the country is the government, Fan Jingjing doesn't think that her life must be subject to such great supervision, what she likes is freedom, she has due responsibility, and the responsibility is born, and how other lives should be lived is left to freedom.
In his concept, the relationship between people and the government is to pay taxes, serve in the military and receive national education, but the national education in Datang is not very good, and education is considered to be privately owned.
Once Fan Jingjing's Fan family manor grows bigger, she plans to start the so-called national education in the next step.
Of course, he has no way to do the national education of the whole Tang Dynasty, he can only do the national education of the nearby manor and the Fan family manor itself.
And because it is Fan Jingjing's private burden, these people must also give back some labor to use as tuition.
As for collecting tuition, Fan Jingjing thinks that except for the rich, others probably can't do it.
Fortunately, Fan Jingjing was very satisfied with the other part of the reward. The emperor divided millions of acres of mountains within the Fan family manor to Fan Jingjing, and there was no detailed land boundary, and he had to visit it to clarify the land boundary.
