Chapter 992: Riches and Nobles
The villagers left, and they all left with complicated expressions.
In fact, if Liu Zongxian doesn't say it, they also know what the collective farm is like. Over the years, there have been hundreds of people leaving Anren Town, and several groups of letters to report good news and funerals have been sent. Who doesn't know about the Northeast. It’s easy to make money, but it’s easy to give up a good life! The so-called misfortune and good fortune are probably the case? As for the hard work of guarding one acre of three parts of the land in my hometown, or going out to fight for wealth, it’s probably what they want these days The question has been repeatedly thought about. Of course, most of them are willing to stay in their hometown and be in a daze for the rest of their lives. However, there are always some restless people who are willing to travel thousands of miles to seek a future of wealth. So with Liu Zongxian and Yang Le'er The couple's return home in glory, a round of small *** who left their hometown, was destined to be stirred up in this Anren town.
In the Liu family courtyard, Liu Zongxian, Liu Zongying, and several other brothers and the sons and nephews of the Liu family sat around several round tables, as if waiting for the meal. Among the big men in this room, there were A big belly wearing gold and silver, but looking a little ugly. She sat there with a big golden sword. She looked a little unharmonious. This era has a low status and is usually not allowed to eat with men. The Liu family's Except for Yang Le'er, those wives and concubines are all busy in the kitchen now!
The men of the Liu family first looked at Liu Zongxian. He, a sixth-rank official in the court, did not say a word, and his husband seemed to be very dissatisfied! Then they looked at Liu Zongying. Although he was the second child, he was Anren and Liu family. The leader of the clan, okay, the husband's power is not strong enough. Should the clan power stand up? Uh. Seeing Mr. Liu smiling and slid around Yang Le'er, there was no such thing as expelling Yang Laobai from An Ren back then Be proud.
Let's hear what they say?
"You can't use a dagger to cut a head, it's a lot of effort. A head will take a long time to cut it off. If you use an axe, it will be much easier. It will be solved in a few strokes... A head can be worth 50 silver dollars! 2 Brother, look at the bracelets, chains on my neck, and rings on my hands, they are all made with gold coins exchanged for cutting off human heads!”
Ah! This girl is so fierce! Look at Yang Le'er's hands, wrists, necks, and all the men in the Liu family were numb. How many Tartars and Russians have to kill? No wonder old Six can’t help but this girl is just a tigress!
"A hero among the real girls of brothers and sisters, foolish brother admires... he admires it very much..."
Liu Zongying's voice changed a little, and the back of her neck was even more cool. I remember that their Yang family had persecuted her so much! If Le'er had revenge... it would not work, she would have to find a way to please her.
"Sister-in-law, Brother Baoer hasn't married yet, right?" Liu Zongying said with a smile on his face.
"Oh, that's not the case. Everything is good in the Northeast. It's not easy to get married." Yang Le'er sighed. She is now marrying a good husband and is about to be a mother. She is satisfied. The only thing that makes her worry is that she is Their Yang family cannot be defeated by the marriage of this stupid brother!
But the brothers of the Liu family thought, who made your brother a fool? It is not easy for a fool to marry a wife anywhere, let alone there are no poor people in the Northeast, who would let his daughter marry a fool? Isn’t this pushing his daughter into the fire pit?
"This matter is covered by me! Brother, I will tell Xiaobao a marriage for me no matter what." Liu Zongying took it all. There is nothing else here in Anren, but there are many poor people. If it really doesn't work, you can still go to Sichuan.
It will cost at most a hundred yuan to buy a Tibetan female serf in the Tibetan area next to you.
Yang Le'er was overjoyed when she heard this and thanked her for being grateful. Seeing that the woman was not holding grudges, Liu Zongying breathed a sigh of relief. After a change of the subject, she asked about going to the Western Regions to become an official again.
"Second brother, this time I am going to be an official at the Hezhong Governor's Office in the Kazakh Khanate, and I can also be promoted to the fifth rank without being tested."
According to the current official system of the Ming Dynasty, the fifth rank usually requires the fame of the Juren, and the Juren must have the fame of scholars and have been an official for five years. Only those with good official reputations are qualified to take the exam. Liu Zongxian has been an official for less than five years, and his knowledge is
If you are limited, you may not be able to pass the Juren. This time you can get promoted to the fifth grade without the exam. It is indeed a good opportunity.
"It's just a little farther away. It would be great if I could be transferred back to Sichuan." Liu Zongying said a little regretfully. From the fifth rank, the magistrates of Sichuan's major counties are qualified, and you can reach the magistrate if you touch them up. If your younger brother is
If you can reach this point, Anren and Liu's family's business will definitely be able to go to another level.
"I can't come back." Liu Zongxian shook his head, "There are 30,000 officials in Sichuan, and only a few of them are from the fifth rank or above? How can it be so easy to be promoted? I remember that in the same year as me, most of them did not leave Sichuan, but most of them were still
In the eighth or ninth rank, I may not be able to have a seventh rank official in this life!”
This is not nonsense. Now Zhu Ming is a scholar and goes to the countryside. It is easy to get an official, but it is difficult to get promoted. In fact, it is the same in later generations. Among the tens of millions of civil servants, how many people can do it?
Upgrading to the level of county magistrate and mayor? Even if you are a section chief, you don’t know how many years it will take. Of course, those masters in the Imperial City Public School are easily promoted... Emperor Zhu’s Ming Empire, after all
, it is not a truly equal country at all.
"Second brother, I think our Liu family is in Anren's market. If you want to go further, why don't you? Let me go to the river together!"
Liu Zongxian looked at his brother and expressed his thoughts that he had been thinking for a long time. Although the Ming Dynasty is now in the primary stage of capitalism, business still requires some background to be easier to grow. The Liu family is in Dayi County and
Anren Town has already done a lot of business. Not only does it run a farm, but it also opens a wine shop and a rice shop. It can be said that it is a rich local rich man. It is not impossible to go further, but it is a water-mixing effort and can only be slow.
Slow expansion, annexation of land little by little, and expanding the Liu family’s farm little by little.
If you want to send it faster, you have to leave the small pond in Dayi County, go to Chengdu, Chongqing, or even go to Sichuan to do big business. But the risks are self-evident. Liu Zongying is in Dayi County.
He is a first-class rich man, but when he arrives in Chengdu, he is just a rich man with medium-sized property. Compared with the big capitalists in Guangdong and Jiangnan, he can't even get involved in the word "rich". If he doesn't have a background background
, I really don’t know when I will turn my old fortune out. As for running further, Liu Zongying never thought about it.
"Go to the river? Can you make money?" Liu Zongying looked at his sixth brother suspiciously. This boy has been out for two years. He is really a good man who is determined to be in all directions. He just went west thousands of miles, but he is afraid it is a poor and messy ground.
How can you make money?
Hearing his brother's question, Liu Zongxian smiled: "How can I not make money? I remember when I didn't leave Sichuan, I thought Sichuan was the country of Tianfu, the best place in the world, and Heilongjiang in the northeast is a bitter and cold place."
A little bit emotional, "But when I got there, I realized what gold and silver are everywhere, what is wealth and wealth in danger. As long as I have a little capital and a little brain, there are many people who earn tens of thousands or tens of thousands a year, but this is still in the sea.
If you arrive in that small place in Lanpao, in Huining, Vladivostok, or in Jilin, you can get a huge dealer worth a million yuan in car!
Second brother, now that the Kazakh Khanate is just beginning, there will definitely be many opportunities. If you are willing to take this risk, follow me. It is enough to bring 10,000 yuan with you. At most, you can guarantee that you can bring back hundreds of thousands! Then
I’m afraid that you will be happy with Shu, and you will not be willing to go back to Anren Town, a remote area."
Hundreds of thousands? So many? Looking at my younger brother's confidence, Liu Zongxian couldn't help but think of going to the Western Regions to take a look... I just took a look, but it didn't have to stay. If it was true
Are you picking up gold everywhere?
Liu Zongxian's face turned into a flower, and he had thought about pulling his second brother who was doing business to Hezhong to make a fortune. With more than a year of experience in Beixing'an, the silver from the Western Regions River
