Liu Haojia immediately asked: "In this way, did the grandfathers of the country agree to the request of the lower officials?" ”

The British Duke glanced at a few people around him again and said, "There should be no problem, but I'm afraid we will have to discuss it separately in the next few days." ”

Liu Haojia understood what he meant, that is, to discuss with the people close to him how to cooperate. After all, Xungui is not monolithic, so he is naturally separated from relatives and close to each other.

And this is also a good opportunity for them to win over the little nobles and strengthen their respective strengths! And after pulling the team, they have to collide with each other slightly, so as to determine the ownership of the market. It's something we want to avoid.

At this time, Liu Haojia said seriously: "Grandfather of the country, this matter is very important, and it is related to whether all the arrangements of the Long Live Lord can go smoothly, so the time is very tight!" In a month and a half at most, we will settle this matter! This includes the distribution of the provinces! ”

Several grandfathers looked at each other again, all guessing what Emperor Wanli wanted to do? However, they also knew that no matter what Emperor Wanli wanted to do, he would definitely not be able to get around the young man in front of him! And maybe he's the mastermind behind it!

And in their understanding of his past and the brief contact they had just made, they had already found that this young man was determined and quick-witted, and he couldn't ask anything even if he asked, so it was better not to ask at all! In the future, when he needs help, he can take a hand, let him receive a favor, or repay his own favor!

Thinking of this, the three KMTs nodded their heads and agreed, saying that they would complete the deployment on time. Seeing this, Liu Haojia also made up his mind, and immediately began to pour wine and cloth dishes diligently, and the whole private room became laughing again! They even asked about Liu Hao's family, and they wanted to be a matchmaker for him!

And when the three just knew that Liu Haojia's fiancée was just the daughter of a merchant, they expressed their dissatisfaction! At the same time, they also said that there are many women to be married among their relatives, so they can let Liu Haojia take a look! In the end, Liu Haojia had to think that the two of them were childhood sweethearts!

In short, this meal is a joy for both guests and hosts! When the three of them were leaving, they all greeted Liu Hao's family, asking him to go to the house often to take a walk and take a turn. And Liu Haojia naturally agreed.

It wasn't until a few people had just left that Zhang Jia, who had not spoken, let out a sigh of relief and said: "Our family is still thinking about how difficult this matter is, but I didn't expect that these grandfathers are so rich, and they still have black eyes and can't see silver!" Seeing that it was profitable, everything was promised down! ”

Liu Haojia said with a smile: "Zhang Banban, isn't this a good thing!" With them to help us earn money, it can also bring the nobles closer to the Lord Banzai, and it can also unite them to kill three birds with one stone! ”

In the days that followed, the people in the capital strangely found that the nobles who had been quiet in the past seemed to be active! They kept walking around each other, communicating with each other, and even going back and forth outside the capital at a fast pace, as if they were planning something!

This sudden change has made the civil servants much more vigilant! They still don't know what the reason for Xungui's sudden activism? So they began to inquire through various channels to see what was going on among the nobles?

After all, in the past many years, Xungui has been extremely well-behaved. Under the pressure of the civilian clique step by step, too much power has been ceded! Are they already preparing to fight back?

The news was quickly taken into the hands of the civil officials, but when they saw the specific news, they were first stunned in surprise, and then their eyes were red! Because Liu Haojia is actually willing to come up with the production method of glass, so that the nobles can cooperate with the shops across the country! This is clearly a way to give the nobles a way to the sky!

In fact, it is not surprising that the civil officials got the news, because it is impossible for Xungui to completely close himself off. He wanted to defend his existing rights and conduct business activities, which were inseparable from cooperation with civil servants. Moreover, they themselves have nurtured and cultivated a group of civil officials.

In fact, don't look at the civil officials, but they are very envious of Xungui! The specific performance is that if they have the opportunity to be knighted, they will definitely not let it go! Because in the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the royal family, only the nobles can ensure the long-term existence of the family!

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, successive emperors have canonized many nobles. Although basically only a small number of them are lords who can retire with the country, most of them are one generation or only a few generations of lords.

Needless to say, they are one with the Ming Dynasty. As long as Da Ming is in one day, they can live a good life! Therefore, the family that obtains the Lord will also try to prolong the time for them to become civilians.

In general, they will prolong their family's existence in two ways. The first way is to try to win the emperor's favor! As long as he opens Chrysostom, then everything will naturally be fine! But this approach has not been successful very often.

So more often than not, they will use the second method, which is to persuade the imperial court to pass on their title to their grandchildren when they are dying! As long as their grandchildren are healthy and long-lived, there is no problem at all with a noble inheritance of more than 100 years without three generations!

And the civil service is different! Most of the families of civil servants are like a wave, often formed by people and defeated by people!

When a civil servant occupies a high position, his family will rise quickly and occupy a great deal of resources! But when this official loses his official position or dies, if no one among his descendants becomes an official of sufficient weight, then the family will quickly decline!

If you are lucky, the younger generations can also maintain their families in a relatively stable state by virtue of their status as scholars. If there are no successful scholars in the younger generations, the family will soon disappear completely!

Moreover, when the civil officials are against the nobles, they can only say that they have the upper hand as a whole and can suppress the nobles. And it is impossible to completely remove the nobles. Even they themselves are still seeking to become the new nobles!

The reason for this is very simple, if the Ming Dynasty is compared to a big family, the royal family is the head of the family, and Xungui is the brother of the head of the family! As for the civil officials, this is more like a housekeeper and a bookkeeper at all levels!

Perhaps the head of the family and his brothers are not good at management, and the whole family must rely on the housekeeper and the bookkeeper, but once they reveal their covetousness for the family, they will be counterattacked by the head of the family and his brothers!
