Chapter Eighty-Seven: Many people are not to blame
Yikes......
There are also mountains in Nanjing......
Zhang Jingyi's heart was hot.
He suddenly didn't want to work hard again, the accumulation of more than ten generations is terrible.
Even if the Fang family doesn't have a shop and a tea mountain, only those 3,000 hectares of land are enough to laugh at the prince.
This is not because there is a lot of land in Nanhe Bofu, the problem is the income.
For example, the land that is now given to the vassal king is very large, and there is no need to pay taxes, but in fact the income is very small. Because these endowments do not allow the vassal king to manage directly!
After all, the imperial court has always been wary of vassal kings, allowing them to directly control their large areas of land, plus they themselves still have a certain number of guards, isn't this clearly instigating the vassal kings to rebel?
Therefore, the income from these fields was actually controlled and expropriated by local officials and officials such as Changshi, who was stationed in the imperial court to the vassal king.
Therefore, the vassal king only has property rights to the fields, but has no governing power, even if they are ostensibly managed by the subordinate officials of the royal palace, but these subordinate officials are also serious imperial examination scholars, and the appointment of officials has little to do with the vassal king.
This is an interesting phenomenon, according to some calculations in later generations, the land of the vassal king, the magistrate can generally collect 0.3-0.5 taels of silver per mu of land, but only 0.015-0.03 taels of land is handed over to the vassal king...... Not even a tenth.
So that in the late Ming Dynasty, the emperor rewarded more and more land for the sons who were about to become vassals, if at the beginning of the explanation, only dozens of hundreds of hectares of land were given, but soon everyone found that only these lands, if it was given to ordinary gentry, then of course it was a large number of large landowners, enough to live the most luxurious life.
But if it is given to the vassal king, these profits can only eat chaff vegetables, and life will not be able to live at all.
So in the Wanli years, more and more land was given, for example, Zhu Changxun, the third son of the Wanli Emperor, had a fief of 20,000 hectares (2 million mu), but in fact he could only get 40,000 taels of silver transferred every year. Emperor Wanli's younger brother, King Lu, had 40,000 hectares (4 million mu), the most of all vassal kings, but he could only get a total of 60,000 taels of silver per year.
This is millions of acres of land, and the income is frighteningly low, even if these lands are handed over to the stupid son of any landlord's family to operate, the income will never be so low.
And the Nanhe Bojia Fang family has accumulated 3,000 hectares of land, and 300,000 acres of land may be only a fraction of those vassal kings, but the income here is only a lot more than that of King Fu and King Lu's family.
Besides, the vassal king has to raise a large family, to maintain the dignity of a vassal king, and to maintain a certain number of guards, although this guard has long been controlled by the imperial court, and the military attachΓ©s selected are also members of the imperial court, but you have to pay for the money, after all, ...... This guard is yours.
Zhang Jing never expected that Nanhe Bofu would be so rich.
He worked hard to sell the shop, and the first issue said that he had earned tens of thousands of taels of silver, but if the expenses were removed, although it was a huge profit, it was far inferior to this kind of lying down to eat.
What's more, Nanhebo has other industries.
Farewell to Nan and Bo.
Zhang Jing slipped back to the public house.
At this time, he got busy and looked for the scribe and said, "Go and inquire about how the young lady of Nanhebo's family is born and what her temperament is." β
The scribe took the order and departed.
Lu Xiangsheng only stood aside and licked his mouth, he was shocked.
Zhang Jingyi noticed Lu Xiangsheng and said, "Mr. Lu, why are you still here?" β
Lu Xiangsheng smiled bitterly: "Congratulations to Zhang Baihu, student. β
Zhang Jingyi raised her eyebrows and said, "Congratulations on what I did?" β
Lu Xiangsheng said seriously: "Of course, it's because Zhang Baihu may ...... To ......"
"I haven't skimmed the eight characters yet." Zhang Jingyi said seriously: "Even if I can look down on others, people may not look down on me." There is a way that the twisted melon is not sweet! Let alone...... If he wants to take me as a son-in-law, will I bear the burden of humiliation? I'm a seven-foot man...... Hey, you say, will the women of the Nanhe Bofu family like the tone of the readers? If I write a poem and ask people to send the list of poems to people to see, will I secretly agree to it? Oops, it's still not good, it's not good......"
As soon as Zhang Jingyi said this, he shook his head and said: "Nanhe Bofu is a noble family, and it is only today because of merit, and the children of such a family will definitely look down on scholars." Mr. Lu, don't get me wrong, it's not you. Ay...... I am for the country, for the common people......"
Zhang Jingyi raised his head and looked at the beams of the room, looking like he didn't let his tears fall.
Lu Xiangsheng thought about it with annoyance, and then said, "This ...... The students don't understand either. β
Zhang Jing sighed: "Okay, don't talk about this, let go of the children's affairs first." However, I think that Fang Shibo is generous, speaks very straightforwardly, and when dealing with him, I can always feel the spring breeze. Oh, let's talk about the treasure first, and then I'll draw you a picture, and you and your cronies will go out of the city and drill to find the place, and then start digging, and nothing else...... I need to go to my father and ask him to come forward......"
"Propose?" Lu Xiangsheng looked shocked.
Zhang Jing glared at him speechlessly, then shook his head and said, "No, I want to ask him to collect grain on his behalf." Other than that......"
Zhang Jing hesitated, and then thought of something, but looked at Lu Xiangsheng with his eyes, looking a little hesitant, and finally said: "I have to prepare a sum of silver, I'm afraid that the amount can't be less, three or five thousand taels is wanted, I said don't mind, you have to send it to Grandpa Wei." β
"Wei Zhongxian?" Lu Xiangsheng suddenly stiffened his face, frowned, and said, "What does Zhang Baihu mean by this?" β
Zhang Jing said: "These two exercises have hurt Dongchang, but who in the world doesn't know that this hit is the face of Gonggong Wei?" We took such a big advantage of him, we almost got it, slapped twice, and had to give a sweet date, at least ...... It's better to ease the relationship for a while, otherwise ...... We are in this big fart place in Qingpingfang, which really annoys people, and we don't know how to die even if we are afraid of death. β
Judging by this, Zhang Jingyi still has it.
No matter how arrogant you are, you can't let people jump off the wall in a hurry, it's one thing to have the emperor as a backer behind you, but it's easy to block with an open gun, but it's hard to prevent from a hidden arrow.
Zhang Jingyi looked at Lu Xiangsheng sincerely, and continued bitterly: "In the final analysis, we are going to do big things, and those who achieve big things are not informal, and I ask Mr. Lu to be considerate." β
Lu Xiangsheng nodded, and then said, "Student to send?" β
It seems that Lu Xiangsheng is not a pedantic person, and since Zhang Jingyi told him frankly, he naturally has nothing to say.
His reaction made Zhang Jingyi breathe a sigh of relief.
However, Zhang Jingyi shook his head and said: "It's better for me to go, I'm better at this, and you are responsible for digging up treasures." β
Lu Xiangsheng nodded and said no more.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
At this time, in the celebrant superintendent.
Wei Zhongxian sighed for a long time, his mood was very bad.
Of course, it's not for the sake of the East Factory.
After all, Wei Zhongxian has a lot of part-time jobs, and Dongchang is just a dog under him, this dog is useless, do you want to make the dog owner angry to death?
In the past two days, for some reason, Hak's got sick, and he was sick when he was sick, and he was cured of his illness.
So, Huo Weihua, the right attendant of the military department, heard the news and took the initiative to ask for a "fairy medicine" called "Linglu Drink".
Speaking of this Huo Weihua, he used to be just a small military department, but since he attached Wei Zhongxian, he has immediately risen to prominence.
This immortal medicine tastes sweet, and the imperial doctors have not judged any illness before, so Wei Zhongxian gave it to the Hakka family.
Who knows...... Far from getting better, his condition worsened.
At this moment, Wei Zhongxian's heart was a little panicked.
He married the Hakka family in the palace, and to a certain extent, Wei Zhongxian can have today, and the Hakka family has great credit!
After all, the Hakka family is the emperor's nursing mother, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse has the most important feelings, when he was young, after the Emperor of the Apocalypse lost his mother, he always regarded the Hakka family as his own mother.
Once there is anything wrong with the Hakka family, not to mention the love between husband and wife, it is the status of the palace, and it may also be shaken.
Wei Zhongxian absentmindedly held the pen, but looked at the tickets one by one in a daze, and did not move for a long time, he was really in no mood today.
At this moment, a little eunuch hurriedly came: "Nine thousand years old......"
"What?" Wei Zhongxian raised his head weakly and glanced at the little eunuch.
The little eunuch said: "Zhang Jingyi, a hundred households, went to the nine-thousand-year-old outer house and prepared a generous gift......
"Generous gifts?" At this time, Wei Zhongxian suddenly felt a little relieved in his heart, and his spirit was a little better all of a sudden, and he said, "How thick?" β
"It's a few calligraphy and paintings, it seems to be genuine, and it's worth a lot of money, and the people over there say that the value is only above three thousand taels of silver."
"The word is big." When Wei Zhongxian heard this, he dropped his pen directly.
The little eunuch was frightened.
Wei Zhongxian said: "Send calligraphy and paintings? What about learning to read? This Zhang Jingyi is so insincere when he gives a gift, and he doesn't inquire about our hobbies, which shows that he is not sincere. β
"Yes, yes, or send it back?"
Wei Zhongxian actually slowly calmed down, but said: "No need, he is already very surprised that he can give a gift, what else can we say?" We are just out of the palace tonight, we have to help Mrs. find a doctor and ask for medicine, you ask him to come and sit in our outer house, they are all people who serve His Majesty, and the relationship can't be too stiff. β
After hearing this, the eunuch hurriedly said, "Yes." β
Seeing the eunuch gone, the distraught Wei Zhongxian leaned on the back of the official hat chair at this time, sighed, and couldn't help muttering in his heart: "Let's wait for this gift, we've been waiting for too long, too long." I only think of us now......"
As he spoke, he thought of the matter of the Holy Lady Keshi again, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
After thinking about it for a long time, he finally got up and said to the eunuch who was waiting on the side: "Let's go out of the palace, by the way, I ordered someone to ask for the imperial doctor again, and I want to take care of my wife, did Your Majesty go this morning?" β
The eunuch hurriedly said: "Go, Your Majesty saw that Madame is not in good health, and her temper is not good today." β
"Oh."
