Chapter 278 New Year's Eve

"Thank you, Lord Taishan. You want to read the book※C.1."

Fan Yongming stood up respectfully and stood beside Han Qi.

At this time, the door of the door asked someone to carry a whole basket of prayer posts in. There were probably hundreds of posts inside. This thing was like a group of text messages from later generations. The more people they received, the higher the status they mean.

Han Qi asked, "Did you remember them all?"

Menzi said, "I've written it all down."

"Then I won't look at it." Han Qi said: "Get the gift list to see it."

In addition to the red greetings, the most important thing for visiting the New Year is of course the gift. The officials, gentry, wealthy businessmen who worship the door will not come empty-handed, and will give them some respect. The three-course income is originally a reasonable and legal gray income for officials.

"Zheng Guochang is really not very stingy." The first page of the gift list is Yang Hebing's Bing Dao Zheng Guochang, and he gave him ten taels of silver.

New Year Zhi respects, this is actually not stingy. The average ritual is only five taels, and it is not too much for giving to his boss. However, Han Qi knew that Zheng Guochang had a close relationship with He Yusheng, and he paid less than a few thousand dividends a year, but he actually gave him ten taels. This is called Han Qi's dissatisfaction.

Han Qi looked around for a while and asked the door: "Has the Lizhuang Inspection Office sent it?"

Menzi said, "Go back to Master, no."

Han Qi sneered: "It's very good. I don't dare to hide in my face. Then I didn't have any Jie Jing either. This is clearly a competition with me."

Zhang Han did not ask anyone to give gifts. If He Yusheng really had the determination to break his arms, he would be able to satisfy Han Qi's slaughter at least. Moreover, Han Qi was definitely not as easy as Zheng Bingbei and General Ma, and he would probably be subject to him if he went down. In this case, he would either give He Yusheng or not give one or two taels. Of course, Zhang Han chose the latter.

"Huh?" Han Qi was only surprised when he saw the gift list of his son-in-law. It was not because of his weakness, but because of his extra richness. Read the book ︿︿._1◇Look  ̄◇◇.□

"There are 1,000 gold and silverware of all kinds, 3,000 silverware of various kinds, and a number of antiques, and a total of 10,000 Japanese goods, and a total of 10,000 new Japanese goods, and an additional 10,000 cash silver..."

Han Qi showed joy in his eyes, but he said to Fan Yongming with a stern face: "Your property is only 20,000 or 30,000 yuan. How can you prepare this gift? Besides, you have to live a life. I am not asking her to suffer with you when I marry my daughter!"

Fan Yongming said: "The gift is only a small part of the son-in-law, most of which was given by my brother Fan Yongdou."

"He?" Han Qi said with some surprise: "I didn't expect that he still has this kind of heart."

In fact, Han Qi meant that he didn't expect that Fan Yongdou had so much money in his hands, which was something he could not have imagined.

"My brother has lost all his money." Fan Yongming's words could not hide his deep hatred. There is probably no one in the Fan family who doesn't hate Zhang Han. Like Fan Yongming, who is close to Fan Yong, the hatred is particularly obvious.

Fan Yongming continued: "The gifts offered are actually all the remaining ones from my brother. I just want to ask Lord Taishan. I must not let Zhang Han go after the New Year. I can even take action against He Yusheng, so that Zhang Han can be forced to come out of the mountain and then grasp him. What my brother wants is to kill this family!"

"I'm willing to buy a life of your opponent." Han Qi said: "The connections behind Zhang Han are also scary. But... on the ground of Datong, who am I afraid of? Even if I don't have these tens of thousands of silver, can I let Zhang Han go? Then where is the face of my Han family? Tell Brother Ling, I will be able to get what he wants!"

Fan Yongming was waiting for this promise. He and Fan Yongdou made a private plan. Zhang Han was still very steady and did not reveal any obvious flaws... The inspection's regulations in the National Court's ceremony were to catch thieves, and there was no other responsibility. Zhang Han was also impeccable in this regard. Even if there were bandits in the local area, the local officials and garrisons were the main responsibility. The inspection only recruited archers, so of course it could not be the main responsible person. When you read a book, you need a book. ︿1c need a book and read a book.

In addition, it is just to avoid seeing each other. Not having Datong report his work is also a trick. Fan Yongdou was worried that if this would be delayed, Han Qi's spirit gradually calmed down. Zhang Han then asked officials like Zheng Bingbei to speak and gave him thousands of silver. The matter was over... After all, Han Qi and Zhang Han had a grudge, after all, there was a layer of separation, and there was actually no deep hatred.

Of course, both the Fan family underestimated Han Qi's mind... Han Qi's character has always been a vengeful person. Zhang Han offended him a lot. Even if Fan Yongdou had no favors from this time, Han Qi would not let Zhang Han go easily.

After Fan Yongming left, Han Qi twisted his beard and thought for a while, and then called Mr. Liu a few times. Mr. Liu's name is Liu De, who is his confidant. He is from a juren. He looks tall and fat, with a big and white face and few beards. He looks like a person with a wide heart and a fat body. In fact, he is deeply scheming and is Han Qi's capable plan.

"Dongweng hurriedly, I wonder what orders are there?" Liu De bowed respectfully. He was from Taiyuan and was not far from Datong. However, he did not ask for leave to go home for the New Year. Instead, he was on the pretext that Dongweng had just taken office and had a lot of affairs, so he stayed with Datong for help. In fact, as he was in Taiyuan, he would receive much less gifts. When he stayed in Datong, many people also gave him a gift while giving gifts to Han Qi. In the past two days, he had collected more than 2,000 silver, which was worth his income in the past few years. Therefore, he was respectful to Han Qi and was also dedicated to serving Han Qi.

"What do you think?" Han Qi told Liu Dedao what happened just now, "Do you think the Fan family still have a lot of family background?"

"No more." Liu De's face was full of contemptuous smile, and he said, "Fan Yongkong has a total of 100,000,800 left. The powerful bandits he has been using is the strength he has put in behind. Dongweng gave it here, probably there are not many left in his hands. However, the lean camel is bigger than a horse, and the Fan family has a lot of industries, so he can't starve him to death."

"Then don't care about him." Since Fan Yongdou had no money, Han Qi wouldn't ask. Liu De has quite some friends in the world. The news is accurate. Han Qi said: "How about you and Yusheng? Are you really as rich as the country as the rumors?"

"This is true!"

When he mentioned He Yusheng, an excitement flashed across Liu De's face. When he first asked about He Yusheng's background and strength, he was just Han Qi's explanation. Later, the more he checked, the more he became more frightened, and the more he checked, the more he became, the more excited he was.

There are now more than a hundred branches of the account office and Mule and Horse Store, Lingqiu has a large iron farm with more than a dozen furnaces, and stores that mainly sell grain and groceries also have hundreds of thousands or even more capital.

The vigilance in Lizhuang was relatively strict, and it was not easy for outsiders to enter, but Liu De asked someone to inquire about it. Zhang Han had also spent a lot of effort and great skills to rectify Lizhuang. Just looking at the Lizhuang area, it was hard to imagine that it was a very ordinary farmhouse in the past, but it was a little bigger than an ordinary farmhouse.

"The family income must be more than one million, and it even passed the Fan family at its peak."

"This kid is really amazing." Han Qi said: "I heard that he has been in charge of his ancestors' industries since the 45th year of Wanli, and it has only been a few years."

"I have also gone to Puzhou to inquire. The only descendant of Feng Pangong, Zhang Nian, is already too old and doesn't care about the business. Even if he is in charge of the business, the Zhang family is far less than that of Feng Pangong back then, so it's not worth fearing."

Han Qi said: "The beauty of a gentleman is killed in three lifetimes. It is impossible to count on Tsinghua University for generations. However, merchants can pass on each other for generations, so it is a matter of my love to seek more money for my family."

Liu Dezang said: "The things Dongweng has made profits for hundreds of generations, and it is indeed a big-minded person."

Han Qi was quite content with a smile on his face.

Liu Dedao: "After a while, we can move?"

"Well," Han Qi said viciously: "I don't believe he can hide in the mountains for the rest of his life."

"There have been quite a lot of bandits recently," Liu De said uneasy: "I heard that there are Shanxi censors in the court who have begun to pay attention, and Dongweng should also pay a little attention."

"I haven't been in office for a few days and can't push me." Han Qi said: "And as long as it's not someone who plots me, it's not a problem for a few censors to write off the seal. This dynasty has always been open to the road of speaking, and the position of the judiciary is very important. Whether it's the Chinese and Korean bosses or our local officials, it's strange that they are not impeached."

"What Dong Weng said is extremely true!" Liu Defat showed an admiration on his face.

"By the way!" Han Qi thought of something and said, "I have always paid the spring and summer taxes and do not owe to money and grain. It is not like the people in Nanzhili who are ruthless. Why did I check the money and grain from last year? The official taxes are mostly paid for Liao pay, but most of the money and grain on the white list are only 60% or 70% at most. Why is it so hateful? You write for me everywhere, and you should not neglect money and grain. After the Lantern Festival, you start urging the levy. Local military and political affairs require a lot of money and money, and all officials are good people and don't force them to urge me. Do you ask me to go to the court? Then, I am not as shameless as a governor?"

Liu De knew that Governor Wen was at that time, because the years of development in recent years were particularly bad, the expenses in the General Town were reduced a lot. In addition, although the Governor was in charge of money and food, he was not a person-friendly official after all, and some things had to be released. Anyway, the local officials were not a good candidate for urging them properly. The governor did not need to do too much, and the reputation was not good, and the court's reputation would be very bad. But Han Qi planned to do more benefits in the money and food matters. Dongweng was greedy in his bones. If he collected more, he would naturally pay more. Of course, the space for mercy was large, and the benefits he got were naturally more. Of course, Liu De himself gained a lot of benefits. Of course, there would be no word of advice.

"The food from the logistics bureau is coming."

...

I don’t know who called out, and everyone stood up.

Zhang Han also stood up and watched dozens of people carrying loads slowly move up the winding path under the mountainside.

I have been in the mountains in the Gujiatai area for half a month. It was about to be the first month of the year, and the bandits kept tempting to attack the periphery, but they were beaten back every time. Liang Xing was afraid of any omissions and would be laughed at by Wang Changfu on the East Road. There were just over a dozen sick people who were about to go down the mountain. Liang Xing directly called the patients back and re-relocated a full-time bureau. There were about five hundred people here, and there were probably a thousand people in the bandits, but there was no morale there, and there was no comparison between weapons and archers. I wanted to highlight them several times, but I never succeeded once. After several failures, no one dared to try again.

Two chapters are updated today, and they will be updated normally tomorrow. I just hope everyone supports it
Chapter completed!
