Chapter 24 Rongguo Mansion sent a daughter, and the Xue family cried
Next.
Ni Er specially hired a high-end carriage for two taels of silver, personally drove Zhang Ni and Zhang An in new clothes, and went to their new home under the leadership of the steward sent by the Internal Affairs Office.
What?
What about the tall horses?
Oh, this must have been returned, otherwise it would not have been possible?
Zhang An can't afford to lose this person!
Besides, the Emperor Taishang also rewarded ten royal horses, do you need to deduct that horse money?
When I went out this time, except for a few neighbors who heard the good news and came forward to congratulate them, there was no longer the crowded scene of yesterday.
Even Zhang An could feel that after he changed his clothes, the neighbors who came to congratulate him were a little scared and lost their enthusiasm in the past.
Only Zhang Ni was still a little sad, and he frequently looked back at the old mansion, as if he was a little nostalgic or something.
"Phew! ~β
"Auntie, cousin, we're here."
"Hey, this Great General's Mansion is really extraordinary!"
Zhang An took the lead out of the carriage, and then slowly helped Zhang Ni down.
I saw a gate in the middle that was about five meters wide, and a small gate three meters wide on the left and right.
There are two stone lions on both sides in front of the gate, two rows of people dressed up as housekeepers and maidservants stand left and right from the inside to the outside of the gate, and the top of the gate is the imperial "Tianbao General's Mansion" several big-character plaques, which look so magnificent.
He entered the gate with the Governor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, walked through the shadow wall, and came to an open space the size of two basketball courts.
The steward of the Internal Affairs Office stood on the steps and first introduced the identities of Zhang An and Zhang Ni to all the subordinates, which was to set the names of master and servant for both parties, so as not to recognize the wrong person later.
Zhang An didn't talk too much nonsense, and directly asked everyone to work according to their own division of labor first, and then talk about other arrangements later.
Immediately afterwards, the steward of the Internal Affairs Office began to hand over the emperor's reward to Zhang An.
Including the deed, the deed, and the treasury, etc., respectively, one by one to check and sign.
After sending off the internal affairs office, Zhang An relaxed.
"Mother, you take a maidservant girl to take a look inside, my son still has something to discuss with the second brother outside."
Zhang Ni's family couldn't sit still for a long time, and of course Nuoda's new home will take a look first.
"Okay, San'er, you are the one who does great things, don't worry about your mother, your mother will take care of herself."
"You can see this new home at any time, the most important thing now is to put the tablets on your father and ancestors into the ancestral hall, and when you look back, you remember to come to a stick of incense and tell your ancestors that we have moved to a new house."
"By the way, don't forget, in the afternoon, send someone to invite your uncle and aunt over and get together in the evening."
"Hey, don't worry, mother, I can't forget it."
As soon as Zhang Ni left, Zhang An confessed to Ni Er.
"Second brother, I'm impatient with these mundane things, but I can't really let you be a housekeeper in my house, it's not good for you and me."
"I think so, you are good at outside affairs, and then the management of the two imperial estates will be handed over to you."
"In addition, I have to bother you to inquire about the news outside, whether it is useful or not, I have suddenly risen to a high position, if my eyes are black, it will not be easy to deal with people in the future."
"One silver tael as needed, go back and wait for the housekeeper in the house, and then hand it over to you."
"What do you think of the arrangement?"
Ni Er naturally knew that his identity was not suitable as a housekeeper, so he had no problem with Zhang An's bluntness.
But when he heard Zhang An's arrangement for him, the whole person became excited.
Don't think that Ni Er has the identity of an embroidered guard spy on his body, just think that he really wants to do this.
Hmph, there are more people with this status in the world.
If it weren't for Ni Er himself being mixed on the street, there are many various news channels, and sometimes the people above can use it, what do you think that identity is really useful?
Spies, or spies, usually give some money before they are exposed, or they are caught by the embroidery guards and have to do it.
If you encounter any unimportant troubles, the embroidered clothes guard looks at its contribution, and may be able to find a way to solve it.
But if it's too troublesome, people won't pay attention to it at all.
Don't say anything about the threat of self-detonation identity, this is tantamount to exposure, and there is no need for other embroidered clothes and guards to come forward, and someone will take the initiative to help clean it up.
Who in the world doesn't know that the spies of the embroidered guards are all over Dayong, but who dares to say it to his face?
It's just an identity, or a character who can be abandoned by the embroidered guards at any time, and who really cares about it.
Therefore, Ni Er cherishes the opportunity given by Zhang An.
Don't look at the management of just two imperial villages, if you have a little bit of hands, there will be at least hundreds of thousands of taels of outer blocks all year round.
It's much easier than him messing around on the streets, and he's making more money.
Not to mention going out to find out the news, this kind of thing completely depends on how to operate, if you want to make money, don't be too simple.
It is obvious that Zhang An is giving him a long-term oil and water job, and it is very easy, how can Ni Er not want to.
"Hehe, no problem, cousin, you give us face, we will definitely carry it, and we will never make a mistake."
It's good to be thorough.
has just entered a new home, and there are definitely not a few things missing at home, so Ni Er volunteered to help purchase the materials needed in the house.
For example, daily necessities such as grain, rice, oil and noodles, as well as some small objects.
Anyway, isn't there already someone in the house, they naturally know, and they will ask later, what is missing to make a statistic, so as to facilitate unified procurement.
There is no way, the choice of the housekeeper is very important, and Zhang An has no idea for the time being, so he can only let Ni Er work hard.
Anyway, the silver has just arrived at 200,000 taels, and it is not a problem to consume a handful.
Ni Er took the errand and left quickly.
Zhang An casually walked along the corridor, through the hall, and looked around.
Not to mention, the place is quite big, there are a lot of rooms, although the overall is a little old, but there are obvious traces of temporary renovation.
Speaking of which, Ni Er investigated it yesterday and said that it was the general's mansion, which used to be the mansion of the first seventh prince.
As a result, just after staying in the palace, a coup d'Γ©tat occurred in the palace, and the seventh prince somehow died due to illness.
Because Prince Xianqi had just come of age not long ago, he had no princess, let alone an heir, so the prince's mansion was empty.
If it weren't for the emperor's decree to give Zhang An and order someone to remove the non-compliance, Zhang An would not have been able to move in.
The mansion is a little too big, no, it should be said that there are too many houses, there are many views, and the winding corridors make Zhang An almost lost.
If it weren't for the maidservant girl who came to look for him, Zhang An might still be wandering around.
"Master, the Rongguo Mansion and the Jinling Imperial Shang Xue family sent someone to deliver a post to the door, saying that they came to congratulate you on moving to a new house, and both families brought a large convoy over, loaded with a lot of things, just waiting for you to summon you outside the door."
Hey, it's coming pretty fast.
"Well, got it, let's go, lead the way, take them, um, to the main hall in the front yard."
"Whoa."
With a servant girl leading the way, Zhang An is much more down-to-earth.
emmm, my own territory is almost lost, how can this be reasonable?
No, you have to turn around the entire mansion when you go back, so you can't be familiar with it.
When Zhang An saw the so-called worship post, he couldn't cry or laugh.
said that it was to congratulate the housewarming, but in fact, it was to send an apology gift first.
After all, the emperor asked them to apologize, no, the apology came.
If Zhang An chooses to accept the apology, it means that this stubble matter can be solved, and they will come over tomorrow morning to apologize for the previous incident.
But if Zhang An doesn't accept the apology, or if he is not satisfied, he can also make it clear that everything is negotiable.
It's unbearable for the monk to look at the face of the Buddha, and the emperor has spoken, so he can't help but give face.
Even if you feel uncomfortable in your heart, you still have to do the work of face, and it's a big deal to turn around and wait for the opportunity to secretly retaliate back.
"I'll just say, the second brother just told me yesterday that when you visit others, you usually send a visit post a few days in advance, and you can only come to the door after getting a reply, how can there be a direct person who comes with the post."
"But, tsk, this gift list, hehe..."
"You go and ask first, what are the names of the slaves and maids sent by the two of them, forget it, let's bring the maids on this gift list first, and I'll take a look first."
"Whoa."
Not long after, more than a dozen thin little beauties walked in.
"Let's all introduce ourselves and our names."
After all the maids reported their names and names, Zhang An instructed the doorman on the side: "Go, notify the outside, accept the apology from the Rongguo Mansion, tell them, send the families of these maids over, and the Japanese general will be waiting in the mansion." β
Special meow, only send the maid, their family members didn't send it together, what are you trying to do?
Infernal Affairs, or hostage-taking?
I don't talk about the rules at all, and I don't know which one is playing carefully, and there is time to clean them up when I turn around!
"As for the Jinling Xue family, hum, it's just a businessman's family, and they dare to despise General Ben and let them all give General Ben a fuck."
As soon as Menzi passed the word, the people on the side of Rongguo Mansion were naturally relieved.
But the Xue family is about to cry.
Obviously, the Xue family's gift list is not light at all, and it is not worse than the Rongguo Mansion, why did it anger General Tianbao?
However, the General's Mansion didn't give an explanation, and drove people away, which made it even more alarming.
