A trip starting from the courtyard

Chapter 614 is full of humanitarian spirit

"Daily Daily, Tokyo Daily, the officials praised it, and the artifact is named 'Ping An Furnace'!"

"Daily Daily, Tokyo Daily, highly praised by officials, the artifact is named 'Ping An Furnace'"

"Little manager, here, here is a daily newspaper." The yellow vest hurriedly raised his hand, called to stop the newsboy, and took out 2 cents. The news about the stove, "Mother, old man, it's all published in the newspapers, and the 'Safe Stove' on it is my stove."

A few literate people took the newspaper and found a portrait of a stove, which was exactly the same as the one that the man took out.

"The official said yes, so it must be good. Man, 300 charcoal cakes are a bit too much, can I get a stove for 200?"

"The owner stipulates 300, even if one is missing, otherwise I will post the missing ones by myself."

"Man, if I buy 100 charcoal cakes, will they be delivered to your door?"

The yellow vest nodded hurriedly and said, "Send it to your door. If you run out of charcoal cakes in the future, let me know when the time comes, and I will send the charcoal cakes to your yard."

"so good?"

"This is the rule set by our boss."

"If it's almost used up, where can I find you?"

"Come to our workshop to register, and I'll send it to you the next day." The yellow vest took out a stack of leaflets from his pocket, and distributed one to the uncle and everyone around him, "Our Qi's carbon industry, There are 4 workshops in Tokyo City, like me, there are about 1000 numbers, as long as you don’t leave Tokyo City, and you run out of charcoal cakes, sit down and register at any workshop, and it will be delivered to your door the next day.”

"Man, if I buy 300, the stove will be free, right?"

"Man, I'll buy 300 charcoal cakes"

In the evening, Wang Lidong came to his parents' courtyard, entered the living room, and found that Qi's mother was not there, curiously said:

"Father, where is mother?"

"The chief steward of your grandparent's house brought some things over, and your mother is talking in the front hall." Father Qi looked at his son and asked:

"Heng'er, what do you think of Princess Fukang?"

Wang Lidong was a little confused for a second, and said, "Father, why did you ask this suddenly?"

"After going to court this morning, I was summoned alone by the officials. When I left, the officials told your mother to bring you with her when she entered the palace next time, saying that it was Princess Fukang who hadn't seen you for a long time."

Bullshit!

The relationship between the two of them is not very good at all. To be precise, the predecessor didn't like the princess.

Mainly because it is too difficult to serve.

"Is that what the officials said?" Qi's mother entered the room at some point, walked to the table and sat down, and said, "What else did the officials say?"

"I think the officials seem to have taken a fancy to my Jia Heng'er."

Qi's father immediately told the whole process of going to see the emperor honestly, even the matter of giving Liang a jade pendant, but he didn't pull it off.

Qi's mother was very satisfied with the attitude of her officials, and picked up the purple sand teapot on the table to refill Qi's father's cup.

"Heng'er, what do you think?"

Wang Lidong complained secretly, I just sat and thought!
In this day and age, people pay attention to the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers.

It doesn't matter what he thinks.

Of course, you can also follow the example of Mo Lan in the TV series and cook the raw rice first.

But be prepared to tear your skin apart with your parents.

And even if he was beaten to death, he would not believe that Qi's mother would agree with him to marry Princess Fukang and go home.

Song Taizu, in view of the lessons of the former princess who interfered in politics and the concubine Yang Guozhong who harmed the country, decreed that after the son-in-law married the princess, he could only hold a virtual position in the court.

If the son-in-law was already a general, he would be relieved of all positions after marrying the princess, and then given the vacant position of Jiedushi.

If it is a civilian job, take off the hat on your head and go home to retire.

Based on the level he showed a few days ago, Jinshi is a sure thing. If you are lucky, it is not a dream to be the number one scholar.

Wang Lidong said: "My son doesn't have any ideas, it's up to the elders to decide."

"Yeah!" Qi's mother was very satisfied with her son's attitude, and the smile on her face increased a lot, "Heng'er, the most important thing now is the hospital examination in two months. Other things are temporarily put aside .”

Father Qi said: "Then if the officials have intentions"

Qi's mother rolled her eyes and said, "What are you thinking about? Princess Fukang's marriage has been decided."

Father Qi was surprised and said:
"When did it happen, why don't I know. Which unlucky guy is it?"

Qi's mother glared at her husband-in-law, she was always outspoken, but fortunately she was at home, if outsiders listened to it and read a book to the officials, it was inevitable that she would go to the palace and be sprayed again.

But when you think about it, it's true.

Being Da Song's son-in-law is not unlucky, what is it?
The future of the son-in-law is completely ruined, and the whole family will suffer along with it.

Every morning, the whole family has to pay respects to the princess. When they meet a bad-tempered one, they are scolded and tortured every day and there is no place to complain.

"The one chosen is Li Yonghe's second son, Li Wei, from the official family's natal family."

Father Qi breathed a sigh of relief. His son was safe, and he didn't need to call his son a brother. Their family was safe. "This Li Yonghe, I met today, and he didn't mention it to me. Such a big man Congratulations. Next time we meet, we must ask him to treat you to a drink."

Early the next morning, after boxing practice, Wang Lidong came to his parents' yard with a few account books.

"Father, mother."

Father Qi saw his son and asked, "Heng'er, how many charcoal cakes did you sell yesterday?"

Princess Pingning was a little unhappy: "What time is it, how can I know the news so quickly. Let Heng'er eat first."

After Wang Lidong sat down, he said: "Before I came here, I already counted yesterday's sales. A total of 2768 stoves were sold, and a total of 64 charcoal cakes were sold."

"so much?"

Father Qi was a little surprised, this was only the first day, more than half a day to be precise
Qi's mother, who was drinking porridge, also put down the bowl in her hand, looked at her son and said, "Heng'er, this stove is not cheap, did it sell for so much?"

Wang Lidong smiled and said: "We have to thank the officials for this matter, without him, yesterday's sales would definitely not be so good."

official?

The couple looked puzzled.

Wang Lidong explained:

"Didn't the government give the stove a special name? It was spread all over the capital yesterday afternoon. The common people think that the government thinks it is good, and it must not be bad."

Qi's father was surprised: "The court meeting held yesterday morning, the whole capital knew about it in the afternoon?"

Wang Lidong drank two mouthfuls of porridge and said: "Now the capital is full of tabloids, news spreads very fast."

Qi's mother said with some regret: "Time is tight, otherwise we can collect more coal fields."

Father Qi said: "These days, plus the ten or so charcoal farms before, a small half of the charcoal farms near the capital have fallen into our hands. We can't take all the good things."

Qi's mother glanced at the officials and said, "They are all small charcoal fields, even if they are all taken down, there are not many. I wonder how many fathers and other companies have taken in?"

Originally, she would follow her usual habit this time, intending to make a fortune in silence. Except for her father, the Marquis of Xiangyang, no other nobles would take it with her to play with. However, her son and the officials tried their best to persuade her, thinking of the recent situation in the capital and the emperor's health. Due to the situation, he reluctantly nodded and agreed to the plan of Duke Qi's government to return to the noble circle.

Father Qi said: "My lord Yuezhang was the first one to take action, and he took over seven charcoal farms. Among them, the British Duke and the Qianguo Duke, the most were only four or five."

After breakfast, Wang Lidong put the ledgers in front of the two of them, "Father and mother, these are the ledgers of five farms in my hand, and Chunlan found some problems in them."

Qi's mother picked it up and turned it over a little, then asked her son what he planned to do with it.

Of course I ate his, spit it out doubled, took his, doubled it back
After Qi's father heard it, he felt that his son's method was very good and full of humanitarian spirit.

In contrast, my wife's treatment method is too rough, although it is very intimidating, but it will hinder her reputation, and the cost is a bit high.
In the northeast corner of Yaojiazhuang, ten miles west of Tokyo, in the main hall of a beautiful small courtyard, Wu Zhuangtou and his wife are lying on the kang, discussing the marriage of their youngest son.

"Second brother told me that after he married Chunhua, he would move to the city."

Wu Zhuangtou was a little unhappy when he heard that: "Why do you want to move to Tokyo city suddenly? After going to the city, where are they going to live and how to support themselves?"

"Second brother plans to live in the small courtyard in the west of the city. According to him, his in-laws have already helped him find a job in the government office of Kaifeng."

Wu Zhuangtou was surprised and said: "The yamen of Kaifeng Prefecture? The sons of the in-laws are still doing odd jobs in Zhuangzi. Will you give such a good job to the second brother?"

"Papa papa! Papa papa! Wu Zhuangtou."

"Who?"

The head of Wu Zhuang's family got off the kang, opened the door, and saw Tian Qi, a boy who was doing odd jobs in their private school, and Tian Qi saluted, "Miss Wu, is Wu Zhuang head at home? The young master is here, call He and your two elder brothers went to the private school to discuss something."
