Ding Tian's Ancient Life

It was all because Wang Zuo sent people to pick up the stolen goods, but the issue of the ownership of the stolen goods made some people excited.

However, Wang Zuo didn't mention the stolen goods, but said that this year's autumn harvest, taxes, food and grass will be distributed to the northern frontier troops

In the past, everyone was able to have a little surplus because there was no governor, but now it is no longer possible, because now the governor is on top, and the military and government are the ones who catch them.

But another proposal, everyone is more tempted, that is, where will the governor's office be built?

"Where the Governor's Mansion is, the Governor's Yamen will be built there." Wang Zuo had already decided.

But the governor objected: "My lord, the governor's office is in Beichong Mansion, and among the three mansions, Beichong Mansion has the longest history and the best city defense. It is the location of the governor's office in the northeast. Your governor's office...is not in Beichong. House?"

Beichong Mansion is the location of the three key yamen of Beichong County, Beichong Mansion and Governor's Office. Naturally, the city wall is high, the mansion is large, and the population is also large. The most important thing is that Beichong Mansion is in the three mansions. furthest place.

If you want to reach Beichong Mansion, you must at least go through Beifeng Mansion. When attacking Beifeng Mansion, you must also guard against Beijiang Mansion. These two are like tentacles on the head of a snail. The middle area behind the two mansions, It is Beichong Mansion.

It can be said that the three prefectures present a triangular pattern, echo each other, and are easy to defend but difficult to attack.

So in general, Beichong Mansion is the safest place. Even if there is a sudden war, Beifeng Mansion and Beijiang Mansion may bear the brunt, but Beichong Mansion will not.

"Then move the Governor's Yamen to Beifeng Mansion." His Highness Prince Ning said with great personality: "There are also the Governor's Yamen, the Inspector's Yamen..."

"This... this...!" Everyone was sweating.

At the same time, I feel a little dissatisfied with Futai, what's the use of you mentioning this now?His Royal Highness King Ning didn't want to move, so did they?

Wang Zuojun glanced at this group of people: "From now on, I will handle errands honestly. This king is not unreasonable. You should spend less time on miscellaneous things and use your brains more. The most important thing is to finish the errands!"

"Yes, my lord." This time no one made any more sarcasms. They agreed to whatever Wang Zuo said, and seeing the lord was not tolerated.

easy.

On the other side, Ding Tian asked Jin Buhuan during the meal, "Where did these adults come from?"

"They are all officials from this province." Jin Buhuan told him some official titles.

Arranged according to the size of the official position, governor, governor, Xuezheng, chief political envoy, inspector envoy, and Taoist priest.

The corresponding titles in turn: Zhitai, Futai, Xuetai, Fantai, Standard Taiwan, and Daotai.

The admirals, chief soldiers, and deputy generals among the military officers are called Titai, Zhentai, and Xietai.

Only then did Ding Tian find some comparable official positions, and he co-authored each of them, all of whom had great backgrounds.

On the contrary, Yun Huaqing popularized some of the relations here with Ding Tian, ​​because the founding emperor of Daqing started his career as a "inspector" similar to the Tang Dynasty, so after he became emperor, he planned to separate civil and military affairs, governor The position should not be assigned easily, because the governor is the first hand of the military and government. However, the court is not without a little precaution, that is, the governor is elected every three years, at most two, and the place has to be changed.

Moreover, every governor is the closest and most trusted person of the emperor, otherwise how can he be handed over to the emperor?

Every family member of the governor stayed in Beijing to live, saying that it was preferential treatment, but in fact they were hostages.

Ding Tian was dumbfounded when he heard this: It really is a feudal society!

In modern times, I have never heard of anyone who becomes an official and his family can still live in Beijing. How expensive is the house price in Beijing?If you dare to buy a house within the Fifth Ring Road, the official will definitely be slapped by the discipline inspection committee!

That night, Ding Tian took Lan Lan back home, and heard from Mrs. Jin that the governor's mansion was hosting a treat tonight, so she wouldn't be here, but she brought a table of delicious food here.

Braised beef tendon and steamed leg of lamb are all good ingredients that you can't eat on weekdays.

When the family got together, Ding Tian introduced Lan Lan to everyone. Everyone liked this "handmaiden" very much. In addition, Lan Lan grew up with Ms. Cai. He can also make plans, which surprises Ding Tian very much.

In the shop, Cui Jiu could read some characters and could do arbitrage, but he couldn't handle it all by himself. He had to sell snacks and settle accounts and collect cash. Zhao Laosi could only do some physical work, and everyone else did it in the back kitchen. dessert.

Lan Lan became the second shopkeeper in the dim sum shop.

The big shopkeeper is naturally Cui Jiujiu.

The people were arranged, and after dinner, Mrs. Jin came to him again: "The autumn harvest is over, pickles and so on, pickled, dried, and started tomorrow. Have you eaten two meals?"

Not to mention farmers, even ordinary people eat two meals in winter, but rich and noble families also eat two meals, but at noon, they eat a snack and drink some hot milk, plus people Not moving, doing heavy work or something, even if you don't eat, you can't go anywhere hungry.

But they really don't have any heavy work at home, it's freezing cold, and it will snow after the Double Ninth Festival in a few days, and then it will be freezing... There are fewer people outside, and they still have three meals...

"Then eat two meals, one early and one late, and tell Cui Jiu that the dim sum shop will send back three catties of dim sum every day. No matter what kind of dim sum, if anyone is hungry at noon, eat two bites to fill their stomachs. Every day, I go to the tofu shop to buy two large pots of soy milk, put them on the stove to heat up, and drink two bowls of soy milk. Your family wants it too! Especially your little grandson, who is thin and thin, should eat more and drink more soy milk! "Ding Tian ordered: "Also, prepare a lot of snacks such as Wufan dried tofu and fried peanuts. Whoever is hungry will eat two bites. There are many children in the family, so it is easy to get hungry."

A half-sized boy who eats a poor old man, Ding Tian is considered to be in shape now, but Ma Xiaofeng eats more than one for every meal, and his size grows very fast. The clothes made in spring can't be worn in autumn, they are a bit shorter. .

And because I ate well here, dressed warmly, I could read all the words, and I followed those yamen servants to attend classes with Mr. Buchang, so I knew more things, and I also knew the legal provisions and so on.

"Okay, the old lady has taken care of it." Aunt Jin patted her chest to assure her: "What else do you want?"

Ding Tian thought for a while: "Well, Mrs. Jin, can you pickle spicy cabbage?"

"I've heard of sauerkraut, kimchi, but I haven't heard of spicy cabbage..." Aunt Jin couldn't hold back her old face: "Maybe it's the old woman who is alone.

It's ignorant... huh... "

The pickles at home are all pickled by Mrs. Jin and Ma Liu's family. There are all kinds of side dishes, but... there is really no spicy cabbage that Ding Tian mentioned.

Ding Tian laughed: "Then let me say it again, listen and see if it can be marinated."

In his time, spicy cabbage was researched into flowers, the most important thing is that apples and pears should be put in spicy cabbage

But in this day and age, apples and pears are something only rich people can afford. Do you use them to pickle pickles?

Pull it down!

It would be nice not to be called a prodigal.

Fortunately, Ding Tian knows one of the simplest ways to make spicy cabbage, which is to use cabbage, green radish, carrot, coriander, salt, soy sauce, monosodium glutamate, and chili powder.

These things happen to be available right now, at most, put some sugar in them.

As for the most authentic methods, they need to put fish sauce, pears, apples, chili sauce and other items, so forget it, it is not so convenient in this era.

Aunt Jin hesitated when she heard that she wanted to put sugar in it: "Put sugar?"

"Yes, sugar must be added." Because the sugar is added to ferment and feed the bacteria. Besides, this kind of spicy cabbage has a hint of sweetness in the spicy taste, which is delicious.

"Oh, okay..." Aunt Jin no longer hesitated, since Tian'er said so, let's do it.

"If you make more, you can sell it at dim sum shops. This stuff can be eaten after six or seven days, which is very convenient." Ding Tian said: "At that time, it will be called Aunt Jin Spicy Cabbage!"

"Nonsense, this is obviously Tian'er's prescription for you." Aunt Jin was amused: "How can I let you sell it myself?"

"You just make more and sell it. If you sell it well, you can also subsidize your family. If you don't sell it well, you can take it back and let us eat it at home." Ding Tian said cheerfully, "Anyway, we can't afford it."

"That's fine, the old lady will cook this... spicy cabbage, ha ha!" Aunt Jin finally decided to make more, even if there is a vegetable to eat in winter, whether it can be sold for money or not is the second priority.

Cabbage is the most abundant in her cellar, followed by radishes and potatoes. These three are the sources of vegetables for farmers in the Northland in winter.

There are also two big tanks of sauerkraut in the house.

Ding Tian's family has accumulated four large vats of sauerkraut and three cellars. The largest one is filled with cabbage, the small one is filled with radishes, and potatoes are stored in a separate cellar.

The life of the family was so dull. The Cai family father and son were deprived of their fame, exiled, and served in the army.

The house was ransacked, and after Yun Huaqing returned, it caused a sensation.

It may be that after this catastrophe, Jing Tian went to Baiyun County on business, and when he came back, Ding Tian invited him to dinner and asked about Yun Huaqing's news by the way.

"He is amazing now. He took all his family property back and sold it all. He actually bought the Cai family's house and buried Miss Cai alone on a hilltop he bought. Cai's house has now become a cloud house. , The deed of the Liuhe building was also taken back. He no longer leased it out, but wanted to open a restaurant by himself and cooperate with his fellow clan, that is, Yun Huaxi. Yun Huaxi had a friend who was in business. The three of them partnered. That friend came forward, and the two of them will share a dividend, which is much better than renting it out alone!" "He's finally thinking about it." Ding Tian nodded.

"The family's fields were also sold, but the county magistrate of Baiyun County compensated him for the [-] mu of fertile land on the outskirts of the county, which is a blessing in disguise." Jing Tian said: "The matter of the Cai family has also caused a sensation in the county, hehe, Yun After Huaqing came back, he finished these things and studied behind closed doors. His younger brother also followed him. He sold the family's fields and houses, bought fields in the suburbs of the county town, and bought houses in the county town. , although he didn't say anything, but his actions seemed to have completely separated from the Yun family. The head of the Yun family village looked ugly. His two brothers-in-law were charged by the magistrate of Baiyun County for 'embezzlement of other people's property' He was detained for a crime, and it is estimated that he will be locked up for a year or two. He didn't see his two sisters who came to beg him. He only said that everyone will be safe in the future. Although he was a little heartless, he thought that since he was imprisoned, his two sisters have not come once. Look at him, tell me, what kind of siblings are these?"

"Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite." Ding Tian expressed his feelings: "My two uncles, five or six cousins, still care about me. During the festivals, the festival gifts, dividends, and every cent are worth a penny." Quite a few, compared to his two older sisters, I am so much happier."

"You cultivated virtue in your previous life, and you have two good relatives." Jing Tian was also very envious of this: "It's completely solved over there, so you don't have to worry too much. Besides, this time, the prince came to the hall in person. Baiyun County The county magistrate... hmph, he can't get away with the crime of 'inaction', and flirts with the Cai family, and now he can't wait to do more for Yun Xiucai."

"That's fine." Ding Tian was happy: "As long as everything is fine for him."

After suffering so much, it is already a blessing from God to be able to turn around.

"Okay, can it be good, he is a person who knows his shame and is brave." Jing Tian said happily: "Now he is a prodigal son who will never change his money."

Typical. "

When Ding Tian heard this, he thought of Cui Jiu.

After inviting track and field to dinner, Ding Tian invited another old acquaintance to dinner.
