Chapter 270: The Clan
Could it be that coincidental?
The surnames of people in this era are still the eight surnames handed down from ancient times: Ji, Jiang, Ji, Ying, Fei, Yao, Yao, and Yao.
However, due to the migration of the population, the feudal princes, most of the nobles and families, etc., all called themselves after their respective fiefdoms, and most of the nobles called their names by their names and women by their surnames.
With the passage of time, after the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the princes fought in the world, and slowly except for special occasions or talking about marriage, people would not deliberately distinguish between surnames and surnames when they were called. This situation is especially obvious in the eyes of people in the Central Plains such as Qin.
Just like the Jiang family, at this time, the Jiang family all calls themselves Jiang, but in fact, the martial arts Jiang family should claim to have the Tai family. Jiang Xi, Jiang Dad and other men came from the Song Kingdom, so they should be Bo Xi, Bo Yang, Jiang Anrao strictly said that they should call themselves Rao Jiang.
What is called, is according to convention, but also according to status. Jiang Xi's family is just a declining aristocrat in the Song Kingdom, Jiang Xi calls himself Jiang Xi, although it is understandable, it is actually an act of saving face. But in this era of the gradual unification of surnames and surnames, it is not a problem to call it.
But at this time, when more people moved the world, most of the people called him his clan. For example, Shang Ying is not surnamed Shang, but surnamed Ji; Meng Weijun Tianwen, surnamed Fei; Qu Yuan is not surnamed Qu but surnamed Mi, and there is also the fact that Lü Buwei is not surnamed Lü......
Lü Buwei is surnamed Jiang!
Jiang's surname, Lu's family, businessman, these pieces of information directly made Jiang Anrao think of him-
Lü Buwei!
When Jiang Anrao told Jiang Dad about this idea the next morning, Jiang Dad was also stunned:
"Unlikely to be him, right? How old is he at this point? ”
According to historical records, Lü Buwei should have been born around 292-295 BC, and it is possible that he was not even as old as Jiang Anrao at this time.
"It's unlikely." Jiang Anrao said, but after thinking about it, it was not without accidents, "The history at this time may not be according to our past memories, have you forgotten Meng Weijun?" Didn't he come to Qin for ten years inexplicably? ”
Then he wanted to harm their family, and finally he was cold.
Dad Jiang thought about it too.
But at this time, they fell into a dilemma, that is, they couldn't prove who they were planning the Jiang family, and they were temporarily powerless to fight back.
In any case, there is such a person who can reach out to Wugong County so far away from Weiguo, which is quite worthy of vigilance.
"Our family is too closed off now. Even if you are so close to Xianyang, you can't know what happened in Xianyang in time.
If you continue like this, you will be very passive when you encounter problems. ”
Jiang Chiyu said thoughtfully.
"Indeed." Dad Jiang also nodded, "Maybe when the Jiang family is integrated, we should still develop the family's caravan." In this day and age, there is no faster way to get all kinds of news than by taking a caravan. ”
"Well, Jiang Jia, Jiang Jiao and some other people from the soil department are not bad, I'll go back and pick and find some to train. In the future, when they go out with the caravan, these people can specialize in gathering information, and they can be the eyes and ears of the family. ”
"I think that's okay."
"Well, I think it's doable, too. There are many Jiang families, and there are always a lot of people who can use them. ”
The family meeting held by Jiang Anrao's family before the meal set up a lot of plans for future development. Jiang Ruoyang talked to Jiang Xi about Jiang Anrao's suspicions after dinner, and then asked Jiang Xi if he knew anything about the Lu family who defended the country.
Of course, he had heard of the big businessman Jia Jiangxi, but he had never heard of the name Lu Buwei. It is said that the Lu family travels around the world to do business, and it is a big businessman named Yun, of course, this person Jiang Xi has never seen.
"If you are really targeted by such a big businessman, the Jiang family is in danger." Jiang Xi, who was still very excited because he successfully swallowed the Jiang family with a small clan of dozens of people in his own family, immediately felt a sense of crisis at this time, and his face was sad.
Jiang Xi sighed in his heart that he was unlucky.
Jiang Ruoyang comforted him: "It's okay, brother doesn't have to worry too much." The Lu clan is far away in defending the country, even if they want to plot everything about the Jiang family, they also have to act secretly, this conspiracy did not succeed, and it is not expected to come back in a short time.
Our Jiang family still has a chance, and we can slowly develop our strength to compete with it. ”
Then he said what he had studied in the morning, including asking Jiang Chiyu to pick someone to start training.
When Jiang Xi heard this, he nodded greatly! No one would refuse to be stronger, would they? That's it!
The Jiang family of martial arts waited for two days, but they didn't wait for Jiang Xi to come to the door again, they were a little square, and said in their hearts, didn't the head of Jiang Xi's family plan to accept them?
How's that going to work? They don't want to be punished with Jiang Cheng!
The clansmen were in a hurry, and finally Jiang Jiao Jiang Qi brought some clan elders to the door, and the clan elders came to discuss Jiang Xi's acceptance of the Jiang family's clansmen.
The clan elders all knew that Jiang Cheng had lost almost all the property in the clan, and at this time they didn't know if they could catch it back. is still very unconfident to say that if he chases it back, those mulberry forests and fields will also be given to Jiang Xi, as long as he accepts the people of the Jiang family.
Jiang Hui said lukewarmly on the side:
"Those properties have been swindled, and I don't know how to recover them! It's recovered, I'm afraid it will also be taken away by the county government, and what you say at this time sounds beautiful, don't you know that if you want those when you pour, you need to spend a lot of money to buy those!
In order to give your Jiang family a way out, how much will our Jiang family spend! ”
One sentence slammed the clan elders to the wall. Next, these elders of the Jiang family no longer dare to take Qiao a little, let alone promise benefits casually and make empty promises. After all, they don't have anything now!
At this time, Jiang Ruoyang and Jiang Xi came out to be good people again, saying that for the sake of the same clan, they always have to take care of it, and they can't watch the clansmen suffer.
The clan elders ran to Jiang Xi's side several times, and after a few pulls, Jiang Xi "reluctantly" agreed to accept these clansmen.
Next, taking over the Jiang family is justified.
When the servants of the Jiang family could return to work in the familiar fields and return to the familiar mulberry forest to pick mulberry and raise silkworms, they suddenly felt extremely happy! This sense of happiness reached its peak after watching the officers and soldiers arrest all of Jiang Cheng's family members and some clansmen and relatives related to him!
The government arrests people! It's scary! Thinking of the follow-up punishment, they were all afraid and rejoicing!
For today's people surnamed Jiang, Jiang Xi is their great benefactor!
Because for the county order and the Jiang family, Jiang Xi "bought" the Jiang family's original mulberry forest and the like. But in fact, those deeds were "taken" back by Jiang Chiyu. Well, a lot of money saved.
Just when the two Jiang families merged and personnel were screened and deployed, the wasteland ranch continued to be built, and Jiang Anrao also began to lead people to reclaim the land in the wasteland and plough the land to prepare for next year's cultivation.
On this day, Bai Qi received an order from Xianyang, and Wei Ran ordered him to quickly lead his troops back to Xianyang.
The surname this, I guess there is a mistake in the front, I always remember to write Jiang? I'll check it out when I have time, and I'll change it when I find it.
Well, looking at the beginning of what I wrote now, it's a bit of a sense of separation?
I can only say that the state is different, and when I first opened the book, I didn't seem to be as serious as I am now, ahahahaha
