Extranet: The Underworld (7)
Zhao Changyu: "The world has just finished fighting, it is the time when a hundred wastes are waiting to be revived, and life will not be easy in ten years, reincarnation at this time, no matter how good it is, it is inevitable to suffer, I have suffered enough in my previous life, and I don't want to suffer again in the next life." ”
So he has to wait, wait for the country and the people to be safe, and then go to reincarnation, and then be a happy rich kid.
Zhao Zhongyu couldn't help but snort lightly and said, "Brother is a noble person, when has he ever suffered hardship?" ”
Is he good or not?
Zhao Changyu glanced at him and said, "I'm not bitter?" Are you bitter? Do you know what kind of life our Zhao family used to have? Do you think your slave life was born from a young age? Hey, I'll tell you, I saved it all up! ”
Zhao Zhongyu's face turned red, and he couldn't say anything to refute.
The Zhao family has a fine tradition, that is, to be honest and honest for officials, and it is really honest.
Zhao Changyu was born as the eldest son, and at that time, the Zhao family already had a high reputation in the Runan area, and was also famous among the scholar class in the whole country.
The most praised thing about Zhao is that he is an honest official, and his talent is outstanding, and he is quite popular with the people.
This tradition began with their grandfathers, and the Zhao clan's accumulation of prestige also began with their grandfathers.
Their grandfather was Cao Wei Taichangqing, who was named the Marquis of Xiling by Emperor Wei Ming, and was an honest official.
When it came to Zhao Changyu's father, he was also honest as an official, he was crowned as Shang Cai Bo, who was bold and open-minded, but never took a penny from the people, but liked to scatter wealth, help neighbors and relatives and friends, and his father would help anyone who came to the door for help.
Over time, they couldn't make ends meet, and the Zhao family's life was actually not very good.
Zhao Changyu admires the most, and his favorite person is his uncle Xiahou Xuan, many of his behaviors are subconsciously learning from Xiahou Xuan, but he has changed the place where he is criticized and thought to be troublesome.
Why was he able to take Zhao Zhongyu to survive under Empress Jia's hands?
It is because he has learned a lesson from Xiahou Xuan, and he is low-key and knowledgeable enough about current affairs.
You must know that he was one of the ministers who strongly supported the abolition of the crown prince back then, and among the ministers who strongly advocated the abolition of the crown prince back then, he was the only one who survived to the death of Empress Jia, and others, such as Wei Jue's grandfather Wei Qian and others, died early, and the whole family was implicated.
You must know that at that time, Wei Qian's power was much greater than that of Zhao Changyu, and he was still the teacher of Emperor Jin Hui.
Therefore, Zhao Changyu deliberately restrained his words and deeds when he was young.
He is also intelligent, and he has been famous in Yuzhou since he was a child, and no one who has seen him has not praised him.
He is an official and incorruptible, he loves money, but he never uses power and official position to accumulate wealth, and his money comes from the right way.
Sheltering homeless people to farm, open shops, and form caravans, this is open source; In order to save money, he bought furs in summer and hoarded ice in winter, because there were few people, he also personally went down to the river to dig ice in winter, and made pu fan mats in summer, which was throttling.
When he was a magistrate, he never bought land in the place where he was an official, opened a shop, cherished self-love, and was an official and clear.
In life, he is never extravagant, a set of clothes can be worn for three or five years, he can be washed and dressed happily, and the diet is mostly light and vegetarian, and the Zhao family's money is what he saved every penny.
He was so thrifty in order not to fall into the will of his ancestors, but this stupid brother was afraid that others would not know that he had money, and he was as stupid and generous as his father.
If you have the ability to earn it yourself, it's all the money he earns!
Alas, Zhao Changyu didn't want to say anything, he was in tears if he said too much.
He turned around and said, "Let's go, go to the Yin Si Mansion to receive the offerings that Sanniang gave us, you go back and find the ghost to see if you can buy two pieces of land in the underworld, let the ghost build a few more small houses on the ground, and go back and move all the guests out of the house." ”
Sanniang has ascended the throne, and they can go.
But you can't sweep people out of the house, you still have to make proper arrangements.
"Next, it depends on Sanniang's ability, if she can keep the world stable for a few years, and there will be no more wars, the number of ghosts reincarnated in the underworld will definitely increase, and it won't take long for those ghosts to be reincarnated, and then take back the house and sell it again......"
Although it may not be able to earn back the capital, it can get back a little bit.
Zhao Zhongyu had a hard time understanding, "We have so many offerings every year, why do we have to make this money?" Wouldn't it be better to give them a house? ”
Their family Hanzhang has ascended the throne, they are all royal now, every year during the New Year, Qingming, Zhongyuan Festival, Chongyang will have sacrifices, and even, there is an autumn harvest, some specific things of the sacrificial activities, every time is a national sacrifice, money and five animals will never be less.
The two of them are Zhao Hanzhang's closest two elders, and the others, oh, no, are ghosts, they are basically reincarnated, and the sacrificial things are basically Zhao Changyu takes the big head, he takes the small head, and even then there are a lot, he really can't understand that this thing is not born, the flowers are not spent, and there are no descendants to inherit here, why do you want to make money in the underworld?
Zhao Changyu: "People who have no long-term worries must have near-term worries, do you know that I want to live in the underworld for 200 years, or 500 years?" ”
Zhao Zhongyu suddenly had nothing to say.
I did what I was told.
The speed at which the number of ghosts in the underworld disappeared was still above their guesses, after Zhao Hanzhang ascended the throne, the speed of reincarnation in the underworld accelerated, and in the third year after she ascended the throne, there was a wave of explosions, and a large number of ghosts went to drink Meng Po soup every day and cross the Nai He Bridge.
There is a huge shortage of ghosts to boil Meng Po soup, and the Yin Si Mansion will spend a lot of money to hire people to post an announcement, so that Zhao Zhongyu can't understand that Zhao Changyu, who is rich and rivals the country in the underworld, actually went to apply.
Meng Po soup is not something that can be boiled by any ghost, the requirements are very high, and coincidentally, Zhao Changyu is the qualified ghost.
So he had the privilege of standing at the head of the bridge and watching the ghosts line up on the bridge, and then jump from the bridge one by one into a circle to be reincarnated.
Zhao Changyu didn't go for two days, and came back with his salary and told Zhao Zhongyu, "I have already inquired, and I won't forget everything immediately after drinking Meng Po soup, but I have to walk across the Nai He Bridge, take one step and forget a while, and when I reach the end, I will forget all about it, and at this time, as long as I enter reincarnation, I can be reincarnated." ”
Zhao Zhongyu didn't expect his brother to inquire about these news, so he couldn't help blinking, and asked suspiciously: "Didn't the eldest brother say that he didn't want to be reincarnated for the time being?" ”
Zhao Changyu: "I don't want to, but don't you want to?" ”
Zhao Zhongyu was a little embarrassed, he inquired with the ghost about reincarnation a few days ago, in recent years, life in the world has been much better, and the ghost who came down from the world also said, now ordinary people can eat half full at home, and there are few homeless people outside, and even bandits are less.
Zhao Changyu said earnestly: "Brother, I still hope that you can have a good baby, go back and count the days, and you can be reincarnated again after receiving another national sacrifice, maybe you can have a good baby." ”
He paused, but still couldn't help but say: "Reincarnation can only change your life, when you can't change your IQ, you are not very smart, it is better to choose a loyal and rich family to reincarnate." ”
Otherwise, he was afraid that his younger brother would not live to adulthood.
Think anyone can be like him as a friendly brother?
Fortunately, Zhao Zhongyu didn't know Zhao Changyu's thoughts, otherwise he would have vomited blood, he was reprimanded by his brother since he was a child, and he was embarrassed in front of others, he called this friendship?
