Chapter V Family Search
Fan Tong's idea was to trick these guys into letting him go, and then return to the city to bring reinforcements to regain the situation. Fan Tong had a good idea, but he didn't expect the nickname of the fat guy opposite.
After Zhao Fuxiang graduated from a technical secondary school at the age of 20, he got help from his father to work as a business editor. He spent half his life working in the countryside. He didn't learn any other good qualities, but he learned a lot about his ability to observe people's movements and flatter others. Zhao Fuxiang was given a nickname by people at work.
Oil-immersed glass balls, the game is to eat meat and I will send you to death. It is definitely a meat with a hob that lasts ten thousand years. How can a Ming Dynasty bumpkin like Fan Tong be as knowledgeable as the grassroots workers trained by me in Great China?
When Zhao Fuxiang saw Fan Tong's eyes rolling around when talking to this guy, he knew that this guy was not telling the truth, so he quickly said to Zhao Zhikuan: "Dad, this guy is lying to us, we must not let him go!"
Zhao Zhikuan also knew that Fan Tong was unreliable, but he had other plans. He interrupted his son with a wave of his hand, and then said to Fan Tong: "Chief Fan, I am really a relative of Mr. Zhang from Qianhu. Your ancestor Zhang is
Not named Zhang Youguang, who followed the commander Sun An from Ningbo to Qiongzhou in the third year of Hongwu."
Fan Tong didn't expect this old guy to know so much. He didn't know the name of Zhang Qianhu's ancestors, but Zhang Qianhu's family did come from Zhejiang.
Are these people really relatives of Zhang Qianhu? Fan Tong made a mental calculation. He must know that although Qianhu is only a fifth-grade low-level official, Qianhu in Haikou is hereditary, and even he, Fan Tong, is a military officer under Zhang Qianhu's account.
Now, a relative of his immediate boss has come and made the relationship so clear, which makes it difficult for Fan Tong to handle.
Zhao Zhikuan is an experienced man. When he saw Fan Tong's appearance, he knew that he had some faith. Zhao Zhikuan smiled and said: "Fan Tong, do you think this is good? Go back and tell Zhang Qianhu that we came back from Manlajia to find our roots."
person!"
Hainan is very close to Nanyang, and ordinary people know about the countries in Nanyang. Fan Tong has also heard of the place name Manlajia. After the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty three hundred years ago, millions of Han people did not want to be ruled by the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, so they went to Nanyang to find a way out. They often
It is not uncommon in Hainan for Han people from Southeast Asia to come back to look for relatives.
After hearing what Zhao Zhikuan said, Fan Tong was already five or six percent convinced. He said awkwardly: "My father-in-law, Fan Tong is just a pier leader. He can meet thousands of adults there. It is really difficult to handle what I have entrusted to him!"
Zhao Zhikuan also knew that what he said was the truth. Although Qianhu was not a high-ranking official, he was the emperor of this place. How could he, a local policeman, just say it and see it?
Zhao Zhikuan asked Zhao Fuxiang to find a piece of white paper from the car, and then wrote a few words on it. Zhao Fuxiang saw that his father wrote: "On July 30th, worship Ksitigarbha with incense." Zhao Fuxiang quickly reminded:
"Dad, there were no simplified Chinese characters in the Ming Dynasty, you should write traditional Chinese characters!"
Zhao Zhikuan was reminded by his son, so he quickly took out his mobile phone and used the input method to change the font, and then rewrote another one for Fan Tong.
Fan Tong watched the old man take out a square object and then gave himself a piece of paper. He couldn't read and didn't know what was written on it, but the paper was really beautiful, white and flawless and very strong. It was worth more than a penny or a knife in the city.
The rice paper is fine.
Zhao Zhikuan handed the paper to Fan Tong, took out an empty mineral water bottle, tore off the label and said: "Fan Dunchang, I won't let you run away this time. This Western water bottle is your reward!"
Fan Tong's eyes widened when he saw this empty bottle. He thought it was a glass bottle produced by Folangji, but when he got it, he realized that this thing was not glass. It was neither gold nor jade. I don't know what material it was made of, but it looked like it should be
Worth a lot of money.
Fan Tong is just a pier leader, earning three taels of silver per month, and is being deducted a lot by the superior officer of the Inspection Department. Now this vase seems to be worth a lot of money. It is estimated that it is worth at least a few taels of silver, which is enough for his family.
Life has been long.
Fan Tong didn't care about his injuries at this time and stood up quickly and said: "Please don't worry, I will definitely bring the letter to the Lord Qianhu!"
After Fan Tong finished speaking, he pointed at the fisherman on the ground and said: "My husband, this guy is a fisherman from Baishashang Village and a military household under the rule of Haikou. Since we are all our own, please let him go!"
There was no use keeping this guy. Zhao Zhikuan nodded and asked Zhao Heng to untie the fishing net. Then Fan Tong led the fisherman away from the beach and into the woods.
Zhao Fuxiang couldn't understand the old man's operation at all. What about Man Lajia coming back to look for relatives, and about Zhang Youguang coming from Ningbo? Zhao Fuxiang had no idea what was going on. Now that Fan Tong and the others were far away, Zhao Fuxiang quickly asked: "Dad, that's it."
Let them go? And what happened to what you just said? Do you know that Qianhu? Are there any relatives in our family named Zhang?"
"You know me? Although our Zhao family is from Hainan, our ancestors moved from Guangxi in the late Qing Dynasty. If we traveled to Guilin, Guangxi, we might have some relatives, but there are none here in Hainan!"
After Zhao Zhikuan finished speaking, he looked at his wife and children with doubts on their faces, and then he explained why. It turned out that Zhao Zhikuan had a classmate in high school. His family was an overseas Chinese from Southeast Asia who came back from the Philippines in the 1950s. He heard that classmate say that his ancestors were in the Ming Dynasty.
When I first left Hainan and went to Nanyang, my relative was Zhang Youguang, who lives in Haikou.
None of the guardsmen here in Hainan were locals. After Zhu Yuanzhang eliminated Zhang Shicheng, Fang Guozhen, Chen Youding and other local separatist forces, he was afraid that their troops would cause chaos, so he came up with a policy of sending troops to distant villages to divert these unsettling factors from afar.
Far away from the prosperous Liangjiang River Basin. Therefore, these troops stayed away from their hometowns and went to serve as soldiers all over the country. Those who came to Haikou to serve as soldiers were Zhejiang Dongfang Guozhen's army, Zhang Shicheng's army went to Danzhou, and Chen Youding's army was in Yazhou.
Zhang Youguang heard that Zhang Youguang was a mid-level general under Fang Guozhen at that time. After surrendering to Zhu Yuanzhang, he obtained the hereditary position of Thousand Households. However, he had to bow his head under the roof. He had no choice but to bring his whole family to this barren Hainan Island to serve as a soldier.
After Zhao Fuxiang heard what his father said, he then asked: "Dad, what do you mean by the words "July 30th, Xiang worship Ksitigarbha"? When the Qianhu household sees this, he will believe that we are the ones he has not seen for many years.
relative?"
"Yes, these eight words refer to a custom in Suzhou. July 30th is the birthday of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, but Suzhou people worship someone else on July 30th, that is, in the late Ming Dynasty and
Zhu Yuanzhang competes with Zhang Shicheng in the world!"
When it comes to Zhang Shicheng, anyone who knows a little about history will know that Zhang Shicheng was a big warlord entrenched in Susong and northern Zhejiang. Together with Chen Youliang, he almost let the beggar monk Zhu Chongba return to his old business. Naturally, Zhu Chongba was honest and merciless after winning the battle.
After Zhang Shicheng killed all his family members, he was still angry and raised the taxes of Susong and Songfu three times. In the Ming Dynasty, the taxes of Susong and Songfu were the highest in the country, even higher than the taxes in Zhejiang Province. These are all
Thanks to the petty Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhao Fuxiang's eyes lit up after hearing what his father said, and he asked, "Is that Zhang Youguang the son of Zhang Shicheng?"
"That's not true. All Zhang Shicheng's sons have been killed. How can such an old son escape? Zhang Youguang was a subordinate of Zhang Shide, Zhang Shicheng's younger brother. When Zhang Shide died in the battle, Zhang Youguang took Zhang Shide's youngest son back to his hometown in Ningbo, and started a new life.
He took refuge in Fang Guozhen, but he never thought that Fang Guozhen was no match for Zhu Yuanzhang, so Zhang Youguang had no choice but to surrender!"
After listening to Zhao Zhikuan telling such a magical story, everyone was silent for a long time. There are indeed many tragic stories in troubled times. Zhao Zhikuan's wife Ma Guilan asked: "Old Zhao, why haven't you mentioned these things?"
Mentioning what happened in the past, Zhao Zhikuan sighed and said: "Back then, I was sitting at the same table with the Zhang family's children, and I went to his house to play on weekdays. Over time, I knew it. I just heard it as a story at the time, but I didn't expect it to be used now!
"
When Ma Guilan heard what Zhao Zhikuan said, she immediately realized something was wrong. Her deskmate? Wasn't she a girl?
"Well, you old ghost, it turns out that after all these years you still miss your first love!"
When Zhao Zhikuan was found out about the ridiculous things he did back then in front of his children and grandchildren, he felt a little embarrassed and complained: "How many years have passed since you said it, why are you still holding on to it!"
Seeing their parents bickering, Zhao Fuxiang and Sun Jing didn't know what to say, so they had to run away and pack their things. Zhao Heng heard about this for the first time and asked in a low voice: "Dad, what's going on? That
The girl is grandpa’s confidante?”
Zhao Fuxiang was amused and said with a smile: "What a confidante, it's just that your grandfather had a crush on her, and later she was admitted to Sun Yat-sen University. Your grandfather didn't pass the exam, so he left the Northeast in anger!"
Zhao Heng did not expect that his sanctimonious grandpa would do such a thing, and said with a smile: "What about the future? Grandpa did not renew his relationship with his old friend when he came back this time?"
After hearing his son amusing his grandfather, Zhao Fuxiang scolded: "You kid is entertaining your grandfather behind his back? But I heard that Aunt Zhang passed away a few years ago, and your grandfather was still sad about it for a while!"
Zhao Heng was in his prime years. When he heard that his grandfather's confidante had passed away and thought that he would never see his girlfriend again, he felt a little sad.
As a mother, Sun Jing is of the same mind as her son. When she saw her son knowing that he missed his girlfriend like this, Sun Jing scolded: "Zhao Fuxiang, what nonsense are you talking about? Do you think it makes my son sad?"
Seeing his son like this, Zhao Fuxiang quickly explained: "Why are you upset, son? This is the Ming Dynasty! It's a man's paradise. When you become the emperor of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, I will marry you a hundred wives. You can sleep with the one you want at night."
sleep!"
When Sun Jing heard that her husband was teaching her son bad things, she angrily grabbed Zhao Fuxiang's ear and cursed: "Zhao Fuxiang, what are you doing? A man's paradise? Do you also want to find a hundred wives?"
Zhao Fuxiang didn't dare to struggle when his ears were caught, and quickly begged for mercy: "Madam, please forgive me, Old Zhao, I only love my wife, and I am willing to live with her forever, and I will never have any evil thoughts!"
Sun Jing snorted and let go: "Zhao Fuxiang, remember what you said today. If you want to live a corrupt life of three wives and four concubines, your son will not spare you!"
Hearing his parents' flirting and seeing his grandfather in the distance apologizing to his grandmother, Zhao Heng suddenly felt that it would be nice to travel to this era. At least his closest people were here, and at least he didn't have to.
Preparing for the evil public security joint examination will at least allow you to express your ambitions and prevent China from going through the humiliating history three hundred years later. Of course, the one hundred wives my father just mentioned is a bit nonsense, but you can marry three or four.
