Chapter 257: Three Grades
Mrs. Wang and Wang Youfa also felt outrageous.
"Didn't you say that the Princess Regent was your friend? The two of you still have handkerchiefs from childhood to adulthood, but just to let her arrange an official matter, you have to accept so much money from us, which shows that your friend is not a real friend. ”
She spoke, with disgust in and out of her words.
Jiang Yuhua was about to be laughed at.
I don't know where the Wang family got such a big face, and they actually think that they should be given an official!
Jiang Yuhua said: "She and I have indeed known each other since childhood, but so what? Officialdom is officialdom, this is the rule, and you can't break the rules because of you. You need to know that the people in the regent palace are not only my friends, because you broke the rules today, then there are other friends who come to the door tomorrow? Do they help? To receive this money or not to receive it? If you don't accept it, won't it be a mess? ”
"In short, this is the result, as for how to decide, you think about it yourself, it's not that I forced you to donate to the official, you brought it up yourself, I helped run my legs, and there is no reason for me to offend my friends."
"You!"
Wang Renshan subconsciously wanted to get angry.
was stopped by the old lady.
The old lady gave him a look and motioned for him not to speak yet.
Then, he said to Jiang Yuhua: "Okay, we know about this, you go back to rest first, and I'll let them discuss it again." ”
"Hmm."
Jiang Yuhua didn't say anything, nodded and left.
After she left, Wang Renshan was in a hurry.
"Mother, how can you let her go like this? A fifth-grade official costs 50,000 taels, where can we find so much silver? ”
The old lady winked at him and whispered, "What are you yelling about?" When have you ever seen your mother make you suffer? ”
Wang Renshan was stunned.
Think about it too.
He's amazing.
usually looks inconspicuous, but in fact, he is smarter than him and his father.
Thinking like this, Wang Renshan put his mind at ease.
Hurriedly pulled his mother's sleeve and said, "Mother, then what good way do you have?" Speak up. ”
Mrs. Wang said in a deep voice: "Didn't that girl say that the palace needs silver to donate officials?" Let us give them money. ”
"But, we don't have any money."
"Silly son, who said we need to pay for our own money?"
"Then what do you mean ......"
Old Lady Wang pouted towards the door and said with a meaningful smile: "Doesn't that woman have 50,000 taels of silver in her hand?" There are also the fields in her hands, Zhuangzi, shops, houses and so on, all of which have been sold, and they should be sold for about 50,000 taels. ”
"If our son wants to be an official, he can't just be a small official, if he wants to be a big official, didn't she say that what three grades cost 200,000 taels? Let's make up 200,000 taels and donate a third-grade official directly. ”
Wang Renshan and Wang Youfa were shocked when they heard this.
Wang Youfa said: "Confused! Where do we have 200,000 taels? Even if Jiang Yuhua's things are all sold, plus the silver in her hand, it will be 100,000 taels at most, where will the other 100,000 taels come from? ”
Wang Renshan also nodded in agreement.
"Yes, mother, this is not a small amount, we can't have so much money."
Old Madam Wang couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Okay, why are you two crying to me here, don't think I don't know, the family property is really sold out? Even those left by the ancestors were sold? ”
The Wang family is also a gateway with a head and a face in Jizhou, otherwise Wang Renshan would not have reacted so much after learning about Jiang Yuhua's previous affairs.
It was precisely because Jiang Yuhua made him lose face in Jizhou that he felt that he had suffered a big loss, and chased all the way to the capital, and he didn't want to go back to Jizhou and be pointed at by others.
And Mrs. Wang's words made both of them feel a little weak.
That's right, a big family like the Wang family, although he is just a businessman, but the business has been done for so many years, and the results accumulated by several generations, the cunning rabbit still has three holes, how can it be so rich, and pay all the losses?
In fact, they only lost Wang Youfa's and the property in Wang Renshan's name.
The things that the ancestors left them have not touched at all.
I didn't touch those things, first, because those were left by the ancestors, if they were lost, or gone, it was a matter of insulting the ancestors, and it was something that really shook the foundation of the entire Wang family, and no one could afford this responsibility, so no one dared to move.
Another point is that Wang Renshan and Wang Youfa are actually not so stupid.
They still understand the truth that eggs should not be put in a cage.
So whenever you give yourself a way back, you can't go wrong.
However, no one told about this except the two fathers and sons.
Including old ladies.
When the Wang family was in the most difficult time, the old lady took out all her dowry, but she didn't tell her that the ancestors still left a lot of property in their hands.
Now that the old lady took the initiative to bring this up, the father and son could no longer pretend not to know, so they could only respond stupidly.
"Yes, there are so many things, but those things are left by the ancestors, we don't dare to move easily, if it really moves, it's okay to earn it back, if it doesn't earn it back, then it will take off the last hole card of our old Wang family, have you thought about the consequences?"
Wang Youfa said dissatisfiedly.
Wang Renshan was a little hesitant.
That's a three-grade master.
Although he is not a member of officialdom, he has also heard how difficult it will be to be promoted again once he reaches a certain level in this officialdom.
The three rank masters, that are only the old ministers of the DPRK and the central government are qualified to do.
Most people can't mix it up all their lives, and he, just because of Jiang Yuhua's relationship, can buy it with money, what a lucky thing!
Although it is based on nepotism, this kind of thing has come and gone more throughout the ages, and it is not only their Wang family.
Don't you know that when I heard what I said in the book before, some people were originally ordinary ordinary people, just because the women or men in the family fell in love with a certain royal noble, and since then the family has gained the Tao, and the chicken and dog have ascended to heaven, and even the official worships the general of the first grade, it is not nothing.
Therefore, he just wants to be a third-grade official, not greedy.
Thinking like this, Wang Renshan's mind came alive.
"Dad, you can't say that, although it is risky to take out the things left by the ancestors, but if your son really becomes a third-grade master, are you afraid that there will be no chance to make money in the future?"
"Besides, being an official is also a matter of glorifying the ancestors and glorifying the lintel, if the ancestors know, it is too late to be happy, how can they feel sorry for that money, let alone blame us."
"Dad, this is the only chance, you have to think clearly."
