Xue Jiazi

Chapter 67 Lin Ruhai's Thoughts

Many people were stunned by the ransacking of the Zhen family's home. The reason is very simple. The Zhen family, which has almost become a place of jokes in Jinling, actually ransacked the house this time and copied out a family property worth 200 million yuan. This surprised everyone, especially Those bastards, when they separated the family in secret, the total value of the account books they took out was only a million or so. This is still a large amount of land property, and it seems that there is not much cash. I really didn't expect that my family could have so much money. , It can be seen how thick these women's private houses are, but what can they do now that they know?All of them no longer belong to them, except for the second daughter-in-law of the third family who is the least valued in the family. I can't keep it.

Moreover, the emperor ransacked the house very carefully. Not only did he send personal guards to supervise the local yamen and the garrison ransacking the house, he achieved three-party containment, and he reversed the previous practice of selling everything on the spot and returning to Beijing with the money. Everything other than the land property was transported away, even the land property was confiscated. According to the old process, at least three to five years would be used as official land, and it would be three to five years before everyone could buy it. , that is to say, this time Jinling, or even the people nearby, will not benefit at all!This made many people a little dissatisfied.

But Xue Pan felt that the emperor's approach this time was really much smarter!Selling on the spot, I don't know how many tricks there will be!It may be good to get half of it into the national treasury in the end.Think about the story of Suo Etu and Wei Xiaobao copying Oboi’s family property in the story of Lu Ding Ji, they took away more than 200 million living assets one by one, and turned them into more than 100 million. You must know that it was still under the eyes of the emperor. What about the capital city!This is the Jiangnan where the sky is high and the emperor is far away!

The masters of the Zhen family were escorted back to Beijing one by one, and what awaited them might be exile, labor, etc., but this time Xue Pan was a little uncertain whether the Zhen family had sent anything to Beijing, like In the original book, it was sent to Jia's house for Mrs. Wang's safekeeping. With the meticulous appearance of the emperor, it is estimated that letting them send it out is a bit of fishing for law enforcement. If you want to give someone a hiding place for silver or something, one more The object of being ransacked.

Of course, Xue's family didn't have the time to go there at this time, but unfortunately they couldn't take advantage of it. Suddenly, an official came out of his family. Although they were a little confused, they didn't know what was going on, and how the pie came from. , but this does not prevent them from being happy, the patriarch of the Xue family is a Jinshi, although he is only a Jinshi with a reward, he is still a fellow Jinshi, but that is also a Jinshi!My family has suddenly gone up, and the gate can be changed again. What a happy event!All the houses of the Xue family were honored by the emperor's grace, and many people said that it was the emperor's discernment of talents. Think about it, what is Shibosi!That is customs!The secretary of Shibo, that is, the head of the customs, is in charge of the tax collection of trade. Apart from the Xue family, how many other royal merchant families like this can do such a thing?

Well, there are quite a few imperial merchants, but how many imperial merchants are there who can produce a group of talented scholars?From this point of view, the Xue family's advantage is really a little bit higher!

Xue Pan is also happy!Now that he is a Juren, his father is an official of the fifth grade, and his family is still a family. This makes him and sister Lin a big step forward!It's only been two years since Sister Lin was 15 years old and Ji Ji was about to marry him. He thought, should he improve himself and go to the capital for an exam. Be confident!

It's not that he thinks too much, it's that Lin Ruhai is too competitive. Now he is the second-rank Hubu Zuo Shilang, and he is only one step away from the first-rank official. How can he not feel guilty?People from low families marry their wives, and high families marry their daughters. In such a situation, what kind of wife can he marry?

Lin Ruhai in the capital was actually the first to know the news about such a big matter for the Xue family, but he didn't even have time to communicate with the Xue family. I mean, not too nervous.

In recent years, the Xue family has really produced a lot of scholars, not only many members of their Xue family have achieved fame, but also those poor scholars they sponsored, some of them have already won Jinshi, officials, and others. Some people who came from a family background and went to the seventh-rank or eighth-rank official positions, although these contacts are just wandering in the lower reaches, they can already see the vitality of the Xue family.

Even those big shots in the capital, who learned about the actions of the Xue family in the library in Jinling from the scholars of the scientific examination, also had a lot of good feelings for the Xue family. Not everyone is willing to spend such a great effort to Those who do this matter, speaking of it, this is actually a bit similar to opening an academy and educating the people.It is most in line with the words of the saints.

Of course, it’s not that there are no people talking about charging two copper coins per person. The most indispensable thing in this world is people with pantothenic acid and jealousy. It’s just that everyone is not a bookworm who dies. It's not an easy thing. In a court, all the senior officials are old foxes, and they think more. What they think is, if the Xue family is really free, what will the emperor think?Do you think the Xue family is inviting people to buy people's hearts?Sometimes!Doing good deeds may not necessarily be rewarded, and the most important thing is propriety.The Xue family has great wisdom!

Sister Lin grew up, and naturally more and more people wanted to marry Lin Ruhai. Even the emperor's sons began to grow up. When they reached the age of eleven or twelve, they began to think about marriage and began to pay attention to the future of the Yue family. Lin Ruhai was startled, how long had it been since the last battle for the throne, and seeing the second storm was about to start brewing, he was so worried!Sometimes I think that in five or six years, at most ten years, when his daughter gets married, his son gets married, and the scientific examination begins, he must immediately retire, but he can't get involved in it. Last time he was lucky, turn around Hurry up, this is how I saved my home, and I may not be so lucky next time.It is necessary to withdraw completely before the danger comes.

As for the one who wants to get married with his own family now?Lin Ru also looked at those people who came to vaguely reveal the meaning, but the more she looked at it, the more uncertain she felt!Look, this is the family of the eldest prince's mother, this is the family of the second prince's uncle, and this one is the son of the ex-prince who was imprisoned, the son of the empty prince, and the relative who is said to be a favored concubine in the palace. The sister-in-law's family, no matter how you look at it, it can be related to the future seizing the heirloom, what a headache for him!I really feel like half of my hair is gray.

At this time, he turned his head to look again, and suddenly felt that Xue Pan was so pleasing to the eye!Although they seem to have no official positions now, this Xue Xun is only a fifth rank, but that is the Shibosi, a job that can only be done by the emperor's cronies. It is obvious that the emperor regards the Xue family as his own power, and those Maos have not The princes of Changqi did not dare to win over the Xue family for a while, but as for the Jiangnan territory?The emperor took it back with great difficulty, I'm afraid they might not be able to intervene in a short while, plus the current status and fame of the Xue family's children, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like they won't be able to reach the center of the court in 20 years. That is to say, from now until ten years later, the Xue family will belong to the safe zone!

And ten years later, what will the Xue family be like!As long as the emperor's health is fine, then as long as the Xue family collects the money of the city bureau and adds more money to the national treasury, when the time comes, Xue Xun, an old boy, how can he be a fourth-rank man? It's not impossible to get to the third rank if it's not easy.Now that the Supreme Emperor is gone, he has completely seen the thoughts of his immediate boss, who is very serious about the treasury, who can raise money for the court in a reasonable and legal way, and can do his job well. Those who are reused, and the Xue family may not be able to do anything else, so earning money is definitely a good thing.

Thinking about the various aristocratic families in the capital who are still a bit ignorant now, hey, half of their homes have been confiscated, and they don’t know how to wipe their butts quickly. I don’t know what kind of brains they are waiting for this limelight to pass. , I don't know how many seats will be vacated in this capital!

Waiting for the newcomer to work for a few years, the princes began to divide the mansions, and there was a while of tossing, and then another group went down, and a group came up, seeing that it was every birthday.Lin Ruhai felt a little regretful!You said that you did a good job as an official outside, why did you transfer back in a daze?What a pain in the ass!Don't get old and get old, you won't be guaranteed at the end of the festival!

In the matter of being an official, connections, status, and family background are all very important, but working under the emperor who has no burden to confiscate the house, safety is even more important!Looking at the actions of these royal relatives, he was sure that the emperor must have seen it all, and now it was up to him to choose.If it's a bad one, the Lin family, which he has worked so hard to maintain for so many years, will also be in a slump, and even bring disaster to his children and grandchildren!

Thinking of this, Lin Ruhai subconsciously raised the ranking of candidates for Xue Pan's future son-in-law several steps up.

As far as the Xue family is concerned, the official status is not high, but Xue Pan is promising. Look at this kid, he is eighteen years old and has never been married. You can see his thoughts to some extent. Thinking of marrying a daughter-in-law again as a Jinshi, he is definitely ambitious. Of course, he already has a goal in his eyes, or it is a goal that cannot be reached for a while!

Lin Ruhai was thinking a little resentfully, thinking about the words in his past letters, and the gifts he gave all day long, I am afraid that they are also very interesting to his daughter.Well, he also had to admit that this Xue Pan is not bad, such a motivated, promising, able to run a family, talented, and stable boy, he is indeed very satisfied, having seen so many children of similar age, That is to say, he can let Lin Ruhai point out and say that the future must be extraordinary.How could you be dissatisfied!Lin Ruhai thought about it, and began to be tempted again. If this child can really win the Jinshi when he enters Beijing next year, he can really consider betrotting him to his daughter!
