Chapter 749: Surprise (Part II)

Xu Sijin smiled: "I want to talk to you about Linbo"

"Linbo?" Xu Lingyi was stunned, "How did you think of him?"

Lin Bo and Zhaoying used to be Xu Lingyi's personal servants, shrewd and capable, loyal and courageous, needless to say, and after these two were released, one was in charge of the overseas business house of the Xu family in Guangzhou, and the other was in charge of the overseas business house in Ningbo, both of which did very well, especially Zhaoying, who was bold and careful, and now he is one of the best people in Ningbo City, that is, the prefect of Ningbo saw him, and he had to give three points.

"The emperor didn't approve of me following Ouyang Ming to chase down Duoyan at that time, but later because the queen mother personally came forward to ask, the emperor reluctantly agreed, which shows that in the emperor's mind, I am too young to take on a big responsibility." Xu Sijin said, his smile gradually narrowed, "By chance, I caught Duoyan, and when the emperor saw me, he laughed at me for his 'good luck' and said that I was his 'lucky general'." ”

The emperor said this in the Jinluan Palace, and Xu Lingyi was also present.

At that time, there was a burst of laughter from the crowd.

He nodded slightly.

"Regardless of whether the emperor said this out of sincerity, or he was afraid that 'Xiumu is in the forest, the wind will destroy it', it stands to reason, the emperor should not go up to me to be the general soldier of Guizhou - the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, plus the general army of Caoyun, there are only twenty-one governors in total, even if I bend over, other people's eyes will see me." Xu Si said solemnly, "After sending off Master Gong, I went to King Yong's mansion." Listening to the meaning of King Yong's words, I can do the position of this chief soldier, all thanks to the words of Princess Jiangdu......"

Xu Lingyi knew more about the cause and effect of this incident than Xu Sijin, but he really wanted to hear what his son would say.

"Isn't that an exaggeration?" Xu Lingyi said disapprehantly, "This is a national event"

"The elders want to compete with the Ministry of War for the position of the general soldier, and the emperor knows about it." Xu Sijin, "Later, the people in the military department gained the upper hand, and the emperor was a little displeased. It just so happened that Princess Jiangdu felt that I had been wronged, and talked to the queen's mother, and the emperor listened to it, and temporarily made up his mind, so he decided that I should be the chief soldier of Gansu, and the Fujian capital Si Tongzhi recommended by the elders of the Feng Pavilion became the chief soldier of Sichuan. Speaking of which, this is also the emperor's balancing technique. ”

Xu Lingyi looked at Xu Sijin in surprise.

The son has really grown up, and he is no longer the child who worries him all the time and doesn't dare to let go for a moment.

Talking to Xu Sijin like a colleague, he felt unaccustomed and fresh.

"The holy will is also something you have to figure out randomly?" He scolded his son softly, not only did not have anger in his tone, but showed some relief.

Xu Sijin could naturally hear it. He smiled and looked at his father with a smile and changed the topic: "Good staff members are hard to find, so I won't force it." Find a few people who can write official documents first, and then use them first. The top priority is to find someone who can help manage the silver mine - I am young, a noble and a relative, and when I first arrive in Guizhou, how can those old and experienced soldiers obey me? If I want to sit firmly in the position of the general army of Guizhou, I have to kill chickens and show the monkeys to rectify a few people. If I keep an eye on the silver mine every day, I will definitely be pulled out by those people along the vine, and it will be troublesome. Lin Bo has done well in Guangzhou over the years, but he is more cautious than Zhaoying, and he is the best candidate to let him take charge of the silver mine for me. ”

Whether it is Linbo or Zhaoying, whether to let them be the stewards of the commercial banks in Guangzhou and Ningbo, or to leave them idle on the grange, it all depends on his words. Xu Lingyi is more interested in what Xu Sijin said about "rectifying a few people".

"Oh," he raised his eyebrows, "So, you already have a case for what to do in Guizhou?" ”

"Not yet." Xu Sijin pinched his knuckles "squeak" and "squeak", looking eager to try to fight with someone, "Anyway, no one wants to ride on my head." He added, "This is my first errand, and if I mess up and my reputation goes out, it will be difficult to do something in the future." ”

In the general direction, his son knows everything, Xu Lingyi nodded secretly, no longer asked too much, and said with a smile: "Your fourth brother is now in charge of the family's general affairs, Linbo is the manager of Guangzhou Commercial Bank, and the income of Guangzhou Commercial Bank in recent years accounts for one-tenth of the family, if you want to ask Linbo to go over, tell your fourth brother first."

Xu Sizhen is the eldest brother and the son, so we must respect him at this point.

Xu Sijin smiled when he heard it: "Before I came, I went to the fourth brother first. The fourth brother said, no matter who I have a crush on, as long as you agree, just take it away. He also gave me 4,000 taels of silver, saying that when I got to work, I should not shave the silver of those subordinates, it would be too ugly to eat, and it would be despised. As he spoke, he salivated and turned Xu Lingyi with his elbow, "Dad, you have also led soldiers, four thousand silver, in the eyes of those who have fought in the war, it is like a drizzle, the fourth brother gave me four thousand taels of silver for that little income a year, you are still Yongping Hou, more or less give me some private money, or else, my mother should nagged me to spend money indiscriminately." You also know that if my mother wants to do something, she will definitely be able to do it, and maybe for this matter, she will send Wan Daxian to Guizhou to check my account. I'm also a member of a province, and when my subordinates see that I'm so old, my mother still wants to check my account, just check my account, like an unweaned child, who is in my face? How can I rule it......"

"I don't believe that if you don't be alarmist here, with your cleverness, others can buy land and buy houses in wars, and you will return empty-handed? Don't worry, neither my mother nor I will ask you for a penny, you just have to keep it and honor your grandmother, and you don't call me poor there. Before Xu Lingyi finished speaking, Xu Lingyi couldn't help laughing, "As for your mother, she has always been measured in her work, how could she send Wan Daxian to check your accounts?" Besides, even if your mother sends Wan Daxian to check your accounts, others will only say that your mother is respectful, who dares to laugh at you, if you plan well, maybe you can get the title of filial piety......"

His mother has always been very strict with him in terms of money, and he has saved some private money, and he doesn't want his mother to know, of course, he can't admit it in front of his father - although his father will not take the initiative to tell his father, but if his mother asks, his father will definitely not hide it from his mother, and with his mother's shrewdness, it is equivalent to telling his mother.

"Dad" How can you say that" Xu Si pretended to be wronged and jumped to his feet, he really planned that if his mother sent Wan Daxian to check his account, he would find a way to let Yushi attack him, so that he could also get a filial name. "I have money, in addition to honoring my grandmother, of course, I must honor you and my mother." This careful thinking let my father see it, it is better to go to Guizhou quickly, although it was bitter at that time, but the emperor was far away......

"Okay, okay" Xu Lingyi didn't know his son's thoughts, Eleven Niang was very strict with her son in terms of money, and she was afraid that he would be like those gentlemen who raised dramas and went to gambling houses, "Since Linbo wants to follow you to Guizhou, that's right, and in the future, Guangzhou Commercial Bank will pull out 10,000 taels of silver for you every year."

"Daddy," Xu Sijin was overjoyed, patting his father's ass, "You are so good to me" and looking at his father's calm and relaxed appearance, he had an idea, and asked Xu Lingyi with a smile, "Have you already calculated it?" ”

Xu Lingyi didn't make a sound, but looked straight, staring at his eyes seriously and coldly: "The family doesn't expect you to come back with the silver, you also have to fight, you must not compete with the people for profit, you must be an official for one term, benefit one party, let the people mention you, praise you dissatisfied, and you can't point to the backbone and scold the ancestors of our Xu family."

Xu Si hurriedly restrained his playful color, and respectfully and solemnly responded "yes": "Daddy, don't worry, I will never disgrace the Xu family, let alone do anything to harm the people." After speaking, the tone paused, and another sentence was added, "It won't let people point to my backbone and scold you" In the end, there was a bit of narrowness between the eyebrows.

"What words come to your mouth, they will become hippie smiles" Xu Lingyi smiled a little helplessly, "Your mother and I are both strict people, why did you give birth to such a son?"

"It's because you and your mother are too strict, so I Guanyin gave me to you" Xu Sijin and his father laughed, got up and were about to leave, "I'm going to go to the eldest brother to go to Linbo"

Xu Lingyi smiled and bowed her head, and Eleven Niang opened the curtain and entered.

Xu Si hurriedly glanced at his father, and touched the purse containing broken silver, signaling his father not to tell Shi Niang about his private money.

Xu Lingyi smiled and nodded slightly.

Eleven Niang glanced at the father and son suspiciously: "What kind of dumb fan?" ”

The corners of Xu Sijin's mouth twitched, and he was about to speak, but Xu Lingyi had already rushed in front of him and said, "Didn't he come back with a great achievement?" He also sealed Wu Jinbo and became the chief soldier of Guizhou, and his relatives and friends must move around, and he wants to prepare more valuable gifts, and let me paste more silver for him. I promised him and asked him to go to my brother to discuss. ”

This kind of walking is also a common practice in the public school. Xu Sijin has always had a big hand, and Eleven Niang did not doubt it, and said with a smile: "What do you want to send, just open a list, and this silver lady will help you paste it." ”

Xu Sijin was greatly admired, threw an admiring look at his father, and then hurriedly hugged his mother's shoulder: "Mother, you can keep your private money to buy flowers and wear it, this time I will knock my father hard." After speaking, he showed a look of impatience, "I still have to find the fourth brother." As he spoke, his expression darkened slightly, and his voice lowered a little, "I won't come back for dinner at noon - I want to worship Huang Xiaomao and Liu Erwu." ”

Eleven Niang was very happy and hurriedly said, "You can help me burn some paper silver for me." So saying, he asked Amber to weigh ten taels of silver.

The worship is to give each his own piece of money in his right name.

Xu Sijin silently accepted the money, saluted his parents, and went to Xu Sizhen.

Eleven Niang said to Xu Lingyi: "My mother just called me over, and specially asked about my brother's marriage, saying that I would hand over the sign today, and her old man would personally go into the palace to ask the Queen Mother for this special purpose, I and my second sister-in-law can't persuade me, Hou Ye, why don't you go and talk about it."

Because of the body, the first emperor was exempted from the first day of the first day of the imperial family, and the lady did not enter the palace for some years.

The two went to Mrs. Tai's.
