Chapter 347 Selling the land and increasing the position!
Xiao Yu is a big boss on the same level as Pei Ji.
Previously, all the officials in the dynasty and all the aristocratic families were demoted three levels in a row, and they were not implicated.
It can be seen that how senior the qualifications are, even Li Er is not willing to touch it easily. After all, there is a risk of instability.
Therefore, many younger generation officials from aristocratic families, or those in middle age, have developed a fixed impression of Xiao Yu over time.
Don't open your mouth easily, there is nothing trivial about opening your mouth!
Because of this impression, all eyes were focused at this moment.
Other scholars who passed the imperial examination, or ordinary officials who were not closely involved in aristocratic family lines, were not so cold yet.
But as the future pillars of the aristocratic family, these young people or the middle-aged and younger generations all looked towards Pei Ji.
Things in the family have been very lively recently.
Although Qi Wang, with the fifth surname, is the leader of a large family, he acts as low-key as possible.
But they are all in the same circle, how could there be no news at all.
There are more wealthy people with lower surnames than those with five surnames and seven hopes. If they know the wealth code of purchasing medicinal materials and hoarding fruits, then it is okay.
So all of a sudden, countless people also joined the ranks of hoarding fruits.
Because we know that these fruits have medicinal value, and the medicinal value is not low, it can even be said...not ordinary high!
That is the "medicinal value" for treating epidemic diseases.
Therefore, they are very ruthless when it comes to hoarding, often offering prices that are more than ten times the market price.
But it’s the same as the Five Surnames and Qi Wang.
As time goes by, the weird atmosphere where everyone is in danger begins to spread...
Everyone couldn't help but be suspicious.
This fucking epidemic...will it stop coming...
This is not a good thing!
But think about it, even though I have invested a lot of property.
But what about other people? Especially Wu and Qiwang, these people are richer than our own family.
Wouldn't they smash in more?
right.
Based on this simple and primitive luck mentality of "if the sky falls, there will be a high one to hold it up", few people sold the medicinal materials and fruits they had hoarded in the end.
It can even be said that among the many wealthy families, there are only a handful of them.
Instead, driven by an increasingly intense and simmering sense of insecurity, countless people instead...
That's right, selling land and adding positions!
So this day...
A tall man (Xiao Yu) suddenly came out to start playing for Your Majesty. All the people in this group had their eyes opened to fifty in an instant. Their expressions remained unchanged, but their hearts suddenly became excited.
Listen carefully!
Those ears want to stand up twenty feet high.
I’m just waiting for Xiao Yu to send you a letter!
"Oh?...What else does Mr. Xiao have to do?"
Li Er was about to leave the court to find someone for a small meeting when he asked casually.
Xiao Yu thought about it again.
Then he said, "Your Majesty, recently... recently, recently, there is a rumor that an epidemic will break out in Chang'an City. Regarding this matter... I don't know, Your Majesty, can... can, can, do you have that, that decision?"
At this moment, Xiao Yu, who was already quite young, was chasing after Pei Ji and others.
The beating speed of my heart has reached the highest level in my life.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang...
His head was covered with cold sweat, like a heavy rain pouring down.
My heart is beating like the wind and my chest is pumping like thunder!
It’s not just Xiao Yu.
It's not just Xiao Yu.
All around, there were countless officials from the aristocratic family who quietly stopped and listened. The tension at this moment was at its maximum.
After Xiao Yu asked this question, everyone's hearts began to beat like a crazy wild horse out of control...
Your Majesty, give me good news, Qiuli Gao!
…
Of course, among the crowd, there are also people who are not nervous at all and are extremely calm.
In life, you must be calm.
Everyone understands this philosophy.
But everyone knows that is easier said than done.
In the midst of a situation, who can truly remain calm and calm?
Those who can truly remain calm are always smart people.
That is...those who can predict the situation.
for example……
Xu Jingzong!
This person was naturally eavesdropping at this moment.
But it's different from other people, different from ordinary people.
Xu Jingzong didn't panic at all, and even had a smile on his lips.
The last time my whole life turned upside down, I was also miserable.
Later, he spent countless wealth and went through numerous channels before he finally regained his official position.
I'm still afraid of being targeted by Li Er again!
Fortunately, Li Er didn't focus on him.
but……
It is not without reason that Xu Jingzong is afraid that Li Er will target him.
As the saying goes, don't hang out in the officialdom if you don't have money. Officials who come from a poor family have no way to go. Everyone in this group is a rotten scholar, and they have just left their humble life. They are the kind of rotten scholars who are full of passion and are often unscrupulous.
Not entering.
Therefore, when Xu Jingzong returned to officialdom, he naturally followed the path of a line of officials from aristocratic families.
After many twists and turns, he finally relied on his wife's father-in-law's reputation to sneak back into the court.
Of course, as the saying goes, don't hang out in officialdom if you don't have money.
Officials from these aristocratic families are all experienced in this business, and their appetites are not ordinary.
In the end, Xu Jingzong exhausted his family wealth and even borrowed thousands of taels of silver before he finally took this path.
Xu Jingzong vowed to take back everything he lost!
On the one hand, it is authority. There is no need to say much about this. Anyone who understands it will understand it.
The second aspect is of course money.
How can I regain power if I have no money? Do I have to go out to fight and make meritorious deeds like those damn princes? Ridiculous.
So of course Xu Jingzong must be self-reliant.
In Xu Jingzong's view, the rumors of the epidemic a few days ago were a good opportunity.
Epidemic is a major event that scares the world.
Even Li Er couldn't wave his hands and pretend nothing happened.
Once too many people died, Li Er would be punished without anyone forcing him.
So Xu Jingzong, who spotted this opportunity, naturally... of course, stocked up a lot!
Stock up on medicinal materials, stock up on oranges, stock up on peaches, stock up on pears...
Stock up in all kinds of ways, stock up in any way, even if you borrow money!
store!
Just stock up and that’s it!
wait until……
In the future, when the epidemic breaks out, wouldn't it be like making a lot of money with your blood? Then you will come back after all your money has been spent, and your beautiful wife and concubine will be happy...
hey-hey!
Of course, as time goes by, like most members of the family.
Xu Jingzong was not without fear.
If this epidemic really doesn't come, then I...
This is just borrowing money to store goods. Once the car overturns, wouldn’t it be a pony overturning a big car?
Woohoo, the pony has overturned the cart!
Aren’t you sad for your husband!?
However, Xu Jingzong was different from ordinary children from aristocratic families.
One thing he has is intelligence.
At least my wife and father-in-law think he is smart!
Otherwise, we would not give him a platform to return to court...
So Xu Jingzong noticed it very early.
During this period of time, Li Er never mentioned the epidemic.
Isn't this abnormal?
So there is no doubt that Li Er must be covering up the problem!
Thinking of this, Xu Jingzong naturally didn't panic.
