Chapter 7 Shopping

What's more, the big account book that does not speak for profit is not left in the broken shop at all, but is lost in Yu Linwei, and the shopkeeper and the second shopkeeper are only responsible for writing the daily account book and then handing it in every day. Such behavior can be said to be foolproof.

Since Lin Fengjin opened this "no words", the benefits of the officials under the "Tian Party" are several times that of previous years, of course, Lin Fengjin's income is also very amazing, for what, in fact, it is a very simple relationship between supply and demand has been straightened out.

This month, under the instruction of Lin Fengjin, the shopkeeper of "No Words of Profit" also began to try to prepare a generous gift, and "ask for calligraphy and painting" from those officials who were neutral in their relations with the Tian Party.

At this time, almost all officials almost understood what it meant to "ask for calligraphy and painting", and almost all the audience knew what the meaning of weight loss soap was The same popularity, so the shopkeeper is often faced with two treatments.

Either the other party doesn't even accept the gift and asks you to leave, or you are invited in, at least the housekeeper receives you.

What is surprising is that as a result, half of the officials are willing to "give calligraphy and paintings," which means that they are willing to be dragged into the water! It can be seen that the lethality of silver is still very strong.

Lin Fengjin's next step is to ask officials who are hostile to the "Tian Party" for calligraphy and paintings! Every time an official is dragged into the water by himself, then the strength equivalent to "self-interest" will be strengthened, and Lin Fengjin believes that political enemies are one thing, but who the has a grudge against the silver spent in vain? Therefore, it is another thing for everyone to earn money together. It's not that the two can't coexist.

As for Tian Zhuguo's reaction, Lin Fengjin didn't have to care about it at all at this time, he had already analyzed it very clearly just now. Whoever moves "without saying anything" is planning to stab the asshole of more than 100 officials, Tian Zhu has a high position and power, and he definitely doesn't have the courage to try the power of public anger. Now the consequences of moving the Lin family, Tian Zhuguo really can't afford it!!

Because he has been busy with "unspeakable" things, and Xiangfan Qianzhuang has a routine. Before the closure of accounts at the end of the year, a batch of "dead pawns" (that is, things that the owner has not redeemed after the pawn period) will be sold to make up for some shortfalls, but this is an open secret.

Because Lin Fengjin had also done a big business with Xiangfan Qianzhuang before, he was also invited to the auction this time, but this time Lin Fengjin was slaughtered by Xiangfan Qianzhuang once, because the two things he fancied were expensive.

The first thing is an ordinary jade pendant, but it is called the Heaven and Earth Heart Pendant, and inside the jade pendant, there is a drop of ice dew, which is said to be the essence of heaven and earth gathered. Wearing this jade pendant can quickly eliminate distracting thoughts and calm the mind, which is very helpful for reading, practicing exercises, and so on.

The second thing is a pair of bracers, which were made by Nan Zheng's Demon Hunting Division when he was searching for the monster mount, killing a bear demon who refused to surrender and stripping off the white fur that was vital to his heart. He also invited the Qi Refiner Aoki Ancestor who lived in seclusion on Zhongnan Mountain to make a pair of thick earth bracers, which were of the middle grade Xuan Weapon level according to the assessment. Can add an additional person to the wearer.

Although Lin Fengjin's attack method is mainly dexterous, this bracer guard can be very valuable for Lin De, who is good at archery. After adding the power of one person, the range and rate of fire are added. There will be a qualitative change in the amount of time that will continue to fight.

Therefore, in order to get these two things, Lin Fengjin gritted his teeth, and could only take out the raw money (sun and moon money), plus more than 100,000 taels of silver, so he got his wish.

Because of so many trivial matters, Lin Fengjin stayed in Xiangdu until the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month before getting on the boat and setting off for home.

At that time, the New Year was much more important than now, and it was necessary to hold a clan conference together, even if it was an official outside, if he couldn't come back, he had to send someone to solemnly explain the reason, especially this year, Lin Fengjin's lineage had just recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors to become the tenth room, so he paid more attention to it.

Lin Fengjin didn't come back until the twenty-ninth day of the first lunar month this time, and there were inevitably people gossiping next to him, which made the forest members very passive, and the opinions in the clan were also very big, and the patriarch of the Lin family also secretly scolded this son in his heart for not knowing anything, and in order to calm the turmoil, he could only bring it up at the clan gathering.

After Lin Fengjin returned, he watched coldly for a while, and wrote down the two bad old men who scolded him the most, "Fourth Uncle" and "Seventh Uncle", and then stood up and said:

"Elders, the reason why I returned late is actually because I still have my own difficulties. ”

The old man who didn't deal with the forester the most was the fourth uncle, but he was a hater of the rich, and immediately scolded with a straight face:

"What's the pain, it's not to make some black money outside, I don't even want my ancestors and filial piety!

Lin Fengjin didn't bother to pay attention to him, took out three blank notes from his arms, handed them to the patriarch, and said:

"Actually, my nephew can come back when he just enters the lunar month, but I heard that the government department seems to have not paid the charcoal fire fee a year ago, and it seems that there is some friction with the household department, so the household department has not allocated money for a long time, and I thought in my heart that it may be a little cheap here. ”

Although the Lin family is a big family, the current social atmosphere is like this, many people have never even been out of the county, and their vision is very shallow, but when they heard Lin Fengjin take a flat bite of a household or something, they first felt awe-inspiring in their hearts, and they were a little in awe of him, but they heard Lin Fengjin continue:

"So the little nephew has been waiting in Xiangdu, sure enough, the first officials couldn't hold their breath, they were a total of more than 300 people waiting to buy New Year's goods, so they put out twenty of the places of next year's supervisors and tributes (the supervisors and tributes have a system, you can use the money to buy places, commonly known as the eunuchs, pull tribute) out of the sale, the little nephew thought that there are more than a dozen talented men in our clan, so he took a few thousand silver out to buy three places, so he delayed a little. ”

At this time, the proportion of people in the Xiucai examination is also very difficult, and it is already very remarkable that a county can have two or three people who are lifted, so there are only two or three of the dozen or so Xiucai in the Lin family, and there are only two or three people who still expect to continue to take the examination, and the rest of the people are eager to go to the prison or Gongsheng.

Because although the prisoner/tribute student cannot do a full-time job after leaving school, he is already qualified to seek a scholar in the government (director of the education bureau), Hu Cao (director of the civil affairs bureau), and the chief of money and grain (the director of the finance bureau), etc., so that he can get up and down his hands and mix some oil and water, which has both real power and benefits.

At this time, those who can participate in the clan conference are all figures with heads and faces, and of course, those who can show talent are also regarded as the number one person in the clan, and naturally they have the right to participate.

Although in ancient times, there were sarcastic words such as "useless scholars" and "poor and sour", but if Xiucai is underestimated because of this, it is really a big mistake. Because everyone who calls it so is a pawn of a peddler, and a butcher sends people, and when they call it out, they all have a strong sense of jealousy. It's as if I look at those men who go in and out of high-end nightclubs and spend tens of thousands of dollars a night, and I will hate it and say that it is a truth to be careful of AIDS

In fact, after the middle school was able to show off the talents at that time, you could be exempted from taxes and forced labor for your immediate family members, and of course it was a good thing not to pay taxes, right?

This doesn't sound like much, but if you calculate it carefully, in ancient times, there was no family planning, and it was very common for seven or eight brothers and sisters, and if you count your parents, more than a dozen families will benefit from it. Therefore, if there are not so many benefits, how can there be enough motivation to study hard for ten years?

Therefore, Xiucai's prestige is definitely called in the clan.

Hearing that Lin Fengjin actually mastered the three prison places, most of the Xiucai present immediately turned red, if it weren't for the fact that he was still worried about the scholar's Sven, I was afraid that he would be about to fight!

At this time, the seventh uncle of the Lin family suddenly praised loudly:

"Speaking of which, Lin Xian's nephew has no merits! everywhere is for the sake of our people!"

The seventh uncle of this clan seems to have no talent in the family, so what he said is public-minded, but in fact, he has no son under his knees, so he expects his nephew to die in his old age. And his nephew is none other than the Lin shopkeeper who is in full swing in Xiangdu at this time, and the long-sleeved and good at dancing is just not many people who know the Tao.

With Uncle Seven taking the lead, the direction of the wind suddenly changed.

It is said that the forester is rich outside the family, and he is also generous, of course, there are people who want to attach themselves to him, and if there is Xiucai in the family, or someone who is related to Xiucai, he immediately nodded one after another, and said in unison Lin Fengjin's good words, and suddenly the matter was over.

The reason why he boasted of his poetry and book heirloom was because he himself was a showman, and two of the five sons in the family were also showmen!

The old woman listened to the grievances of several sons and said that the things in the clan today, and immediately sprinkled and cried, saying that the old man himself was a waste, and even had to block the future of his children, and the ten houses of the newly recognized ancestors were poor or rich, and if he closed the bird's mouth and did not speak, the three Xiucai in his house could always get a prisoner......!
