Chapter 325: The Plague is a Change
Hearing his refusal, Gu Huanxi was not surprised at all, "Now, we don't have to rush to take credit, you are already in the limelight enough." ”
Although they now have the Sun family as a backer, their own standing is not stable enough, and they are not practical after all.
Xu Huaiyi nodded, "I think so too, besides, what can I be rewarded for?" You can't give me an official position, can you? It's really boring to be that kind of official, I guess it's just a verbal commendation, and then reward some gold, silver, jewelry, or something, our family doesn't lack that now, it's better to give the credit to the ancestor as a favor. ”
Afterwards, can the Sun family still lose him?
No, you can't.
The family is the most face-saving thing.
Gu Huanxi teased, "You are quite clear in your calculations." ”
Xu Huaiyi smiled calmly, "How can this be called calculation? This is called maximizing interests, that credit is dispensable to me, for the Sun family, for the ancestors, but it is the political achievements of being able to increase the official and enter the knighthood, the meaning is completely different, then it has to be put in the hands of the most suitable person, in order to give full play to the greatest value, otherwise it is not a waste? ”
"Then Sun Shangshu agreed?"
"Of course, he is not stupid, he can sort out the Tao of this after a little weighing, wait for it, there will definitely be a return for the Sun family when he returns."
The more they pay, the more the Sun family will not easily abandon them, they have the value of use, and people will be willing to invest in you, they don't count the Sun family, but they don't count the Sun family, but they don't lose their heart.
Gu Huanxi was relieved, "With such a large amount of silver in the imperial court, it shouldn't be worried, right?" ”
Xu Huaiyi muttered, "The resettlement of the victims here in the capital should be no problem, and the Salesian Bureau run by the eldest prince can continue to be built...... It's not solved, it's not enough to have silver. ”
Gu Huanxi furrowed his brows, "Isn't the Dengzhou civil unrest a rebellion?" Post-war resettlement, is no one to care? ”
"Yes, it's just that there are too many bits and pieces, and it involves the game of all parties in the court, in short, it's very troublesome, but it's a matter of time, and it can be solved sooner or later, listen to the master's will, most of the people sent are neutrals, and they don't involve party disputes, so they can do things for the people wholeheartedly."
"What about Qingzhou?"
"Qingzhou is more troublesome, there are a lot fewer victims, now the news has not spread, I don't know if it was suppressed, or the court doesn't know at all, anyway, it's very sensitive, I don't dare to mention it casually, the second prince wants to take this opportunity to bring down the third prince and the fourth prince, but he was put in the foot, how will it develop in the end, it's hard to say, I have a hunch, none of them can take advantage of these princes."
Gu Huanxi was a little clear, "You mean, the river mussels are fighting, and the fishermen are profiting?" ”
Xu Huaiyi said a meaningful "um", knowing that his daughter-in-law was impatient to say this, so he changed his words and turned back to the previous topic, "By the way, at the end of the auction, the effect of opening the blind box is also good, divided into several price grades, even ordinary rich people are willing to buy one to try their luck, and there is really a small broad, which is much more interesting than gambling, I see that many businessmen are eager to try, wait, soon the shops in the city will be proficient in using this marketing method." ”
Gu Huanxi said, "The ancients were only backward in science and technology, but their minds were not backward. ”
Xu Huaiyi thought so, "Another day, you will also take your children to the city for a walk, the auction will be held in the Treasure Pavilion, I am familiar with the shopkeeper there, you can report my name when you go, he will take you everywhere to see, there are a lot of interesting things in it." ”
Gu Huanxi shook his head, "Wait a little longer, I always feel unstable." ”
"Something at home?"
"No, it's all very smooth, the business is surprisingly good, the tofu every day is not enough to sell, the new bean sprouts are also causing people to scramble, on the Zhuangzi, those people are eager to weave things all night, just do it, it's not enough for the Su family, that Li steward is urging the shipment for three days and two ends, everyone wants to grow a few more hands......"
"Why don't I choose some people from the new village of the victims?"
"Don't be, the house is full of women, no matter how many people there are, it's really not a good idea."
The next day, Xu Huaiyi and others did not have to go to duty anymore, stayed in the college to attend classes, compared with the hard work of duty, suddenly felt that the days became more idle and comfortable.
However, before he could feel comfortable for half a day, bad news came out again, and the civil unrest in Dengzhou was resolved, but the epidemic started.
This is not the worst, the worst thing is that at first the patient only showed symptoms of wind and cold, which did not attract attention, and by the time it did not heal and began to die, the situation was already out of control.
So, from Dengzhou, it spread to several other state capitals at once, which is even worse for the affected areas, once it is not handled well, it will be a catastrophe, and several state capitals are urgently on the fold, asking the court for help.
How can I help? More than a month ago, when the counterinsurgency army went, he took the imperial doctor with him, but the imperial doctor was helpless, and the diagnosis came and went, it was a wind cold, but it was useless to use the medicine to treat the wind cold, and the strong body tossed for seven or eight days, but it was able to carry it, but the old, weak, sick and disabled did not have that good life, and almost a stroke was a death, and the disease was extremely contagious, and the onset was fast, and it was menacing.
This news suppressed the excitement of yesterday's auction all at once, and the joy of the full treasury did not have time to celebrate, and the court was shrouded by the shadow of the epidemic again, even the people.
Xu Huaiyi was called by Sun Yu, and the master and apprentice sat in the room, and the atmosphere was not heavy, because Sun Shangshu had entered the cabinet.
This is definitely a great joy for the Sun family, and it has been set up for a banquet long ago, but now, if there is a plague, it is not good to celebrate at this juncture, so let's keep a low profile first.
The joy on Xu Huaiyi's face was undisguised, "Shizu deserves to enter the cabinet." ”
Sun Yu smiled reservedly, "It's just a matter of saying this here for the teacher, the outside doesn't dare to hate your master like this." ”
"Hehe, don't worry, the disciple is not stupid......"
Sun Yu glanced at him, isn't he stupid, this disciple is even better than a monkey, "This time, your master was able to enter the cabinet, most of it was your credit......
"Don't, don't, it has nothing to do with the disciple, it's the ancestor who is dedicated to the people and is willing to ask for his life for the people, the disciple just made a suggestion, if the master doesn't agree and doesn't want to take the risk to do it, then the proposal is just a few words of nonsense." Xu Huaiyi said very bluntly, and his eyes were also open.
Sun Yu said in a complicated tone, "Your suggestion is hard to find, and the Sun family inherits your affection ......."
Xu Huaiyi interrupted with a smile, "Master, there are many foreign ways to admit feelings, and the truth of one glory and one loss is lost, can the disciple still not understand?" If the master is good, the disciples will also benefit from it, and in the future, they will be protected by someone in the officialdom, which can be better than ten thousand gold. ”
Sun Yu sighed suddenly, "It's really accurate for your ancestors, you, don't take credit at all, and don't want benefits, but you don't want it, you can't give it for the teacher, don't talk, the elders give it, you can't resign, take it, you don't want to reciprocate, then these things should be regarded as a meeting gift for the teacher to the child, they didn't go to the last apprenticeship banquet, and now make up for the ......"
