Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 601
Maybe it was to take office earlier, maybe to avoid marriage urging, anyway, Gao Wu only stayed in Xinzheng for two days.

On the first day, he met with his brothers and sisters, and then went to the county to visit Uncle Wu.On the second day, I sat at home and waited for the county magistrate of Xinzheng to come to visit, and talked with him about some public and private affairs.

This is the case in the local official family, especially for officials like the Gao family for many generations. The ancestral temple of the family still has a memorial tablet for Wen Zhenggong. The mere county magistrate of Xinzheng learned that Gao Yushi had returned home, so how could he not come to pay his respects?

You know, although Gao Yushi is the same seventh rank as him, the gold content of the two seventh ranks is more than ten times different between the magistrate and the patrol?
What's more, Gao Wushi's six champions, in Xinzheng, the Gao clan has become the patriarch who is not the patriarch. If he does not have the approval of the Gao family in Xinzheng County, he will probably have to pack up and leave next month. In this case, after hearing the news Hurry up to meet Gao Wushi is the proper meaning of the title.

However, Gao Wushi didn't put any airs on him. The county magistrate was born as a Jinshi. At first, the big bosses of any faction didn't like him. Later, I don't know whether he spent money or went through some other ways to get a solid foundation. Short, he served as the magistrate of the next county.Then he got good grades in the exams, so he was promoted to Zhong County and continued to be the county magistrate, so he happened to be assigned to Xinzheng.

Now that he has arrived in Xinzheng, there is no other way but to hug the thighs of the Gao family tightly, so this county magistrate, who is close to [-] fellow Jinshi, basically regards himself as a subordinate official of the Gao family, and his whole heart is to serve the two major members of the Gao family. Industry Xinzheng Coal Mine and Jinghua Porcelain Service.

Needless to say, Xinzheng Coal Mine, Jinghua Porcelain was originally produced in Yuzhou, but after the county magistrate Zhang took office, he spent a lot of effort to convince his highly pragmatic mother, Mrs. Zhang, to open a kiln in Xinzheng. Porcelain brand, which produces non-high-end products of Jun porcelain—Jun porcelain itself is a top-end product, and Xinzheng’s so-called non-high-end products are actually high-end products in the market.

As a result, in the past six months, a lot of achievements have been made. The gross profit exceeds 7000 taels, and the net profit exceeds 5000 taels, which makes Mrs. Zhang very satisfied. You must know that the tax paid by Xinzheng County is only more than 700 taels a year. Isn't it amazing to compare?It can be seen that in terms of making money alone, farming is really hopeless.

What Gao Wushi could say was not only to praise Zhang Zhixian, but he wrote a note and handed it to him, saying to him: "Henan Right Chief Envoy Wu Fangbo is my senior brother, you can take my note to see you."

Fangbo is an elegant name for the chief envoy.This chief envoy is actually Wu Wenjia. From the engineering department, he was transferred to the right chief envoy of Henan, who was transferred to the right chief envoy of Henan. He was a favorite among Gao Gong's disciples, but Not a particularly good one.

He was also the Wu Zhangke who, following Gao Yushi's instructions, blocked Zhang Juzheng, who had rushed back to the capital overnight from Tianshou Mountain to save Feng Bao, outside the city gate overnight.Eight or nine years have passed, and it has been promoted from the seventh rank to the second rank—of course, although the ranks of the left and right chief ministers are high, it actually depends on the faces of the governors and inspectors, but that is another issue.

Of course, for the magistrate of Zhang County, it was a blessing from heaven to be able to curry favor with the right chief envoy of the province just because he saw the high pragmatism. But the top leader of Henan Shuzheng.

After sending away the thankful Zhang Zhixian, Gao Wushi and Liu Xin went on the road.

In Henan, flying the Gao family's Fuxi and Nuwa human-headed snake-body flags and Jinghua's "two swords holding books" flag, let alone ordinary people who look at them from a distance with a look of envy and respect, they are bandits Roadhog will walk around.

This is not only due to the prestige of the Gao family, but also the prestige accumulated by the Gao family in the hometown of Henan step by step, and the popularity gained by Gao Yushi when he took in Wei Hui's refugees.

Therefore, from Xinzheng to Yuzhou, and then through Xiangcheng, Yexian, Yuzhou and Nanyang, all the way is unimpeded.But if you go further, after passing Xinye County, you will enter the boundary of Huguang and Xiangyang Prefecture.

Xiangyang can be said to be a good place since ancient times, and it is also an important military town. However, in the Ming Dynasty, because this place was a little closer to Yunyang, the famous "chaotic source", the public security was relatively worse than in ancient times.

Gao Wushi also reminded his servant to be careful, especially when he came out this time without Gao Yu, and he dared not be careless.

Gao Yu's boss is not young anymore, and last year he married Gao Yushi's maid Shangyue. This year, his son happened to be born, so Gao Yushi gave him half of the leave - to stay in Beijing.His duty is to control all the armed servants. In case of major accidents, he can also call the factory and mine protection teams of any factories and mines near Gyeonggi. In the Jinghua system, he is now somewhat like the commander-in-chief of the land armed forces.

The leader Gao Wushi brought out this time to lead his servants was Gao Zhang, who was born as an orphan among Wei Hui's refugees. He changed his surname and joined the Gao family. His qualifications are not considered old, but he performed very well when he was trained in Ji Town. Qi Jiguang commented He said, "Although the flexibility is slightly insufficient, it is as solid as Mount Tai and can be guarded by the Chinese army."

Qi Junshen's vision is high and pragmatic, so he has no doubts at all, so this time he entrusted the "Chinese Army Personal Guard" to him.However, considering that he did not have much actual combat experience after all, Gao Wushi reminded him a few times after he entered the border of Huguang, especially the border of Xiangyang Prefecture near Yunyang.

On the contrary, Liu Xin was very relaxed. Her father handed over the trusted servants who were housekeepers to her, but she didn't care, and didn't even say a few words to the servants.Every day, besides rushing to the road, I chatted with Gao Yushi, and also took advantage of the advantages of the geography teacher to introduce the local topography, mineral resources, climate change and other things to Gao Yushi every time he passed by.

It's a pity that Gao Wushi felt that the minerals he had on hand were enough, so he basically didn't listen to them.

Liu Xin was not angry, she still talked to herself, as if she could finally find someone to confide in her full experience, which made Gao Wushi a little funny and at the same time feel sorry for her.

As she herself said, her major in her previous life is not very useful in this era—unless she is a man, there is a chance that she can use it.

Speaking of which, her level of geography knowledge is comparable to that of Daming, which is really incomparable to Xu Xiake, but she can't use it well.

Gao Wushi saw her like this, and comforted her, saying: "There will be times when the wind and the waves cleave, hang the clouds and sail directly to help the sea."

In the end, Liu Xin just rolled her eyes and replied: "You should do things like Ji Canghai. I'm not interested in such dangerous things as growing wind and breaking waves. It's better to let me" Green Ruo Li, Green Coir Raincoat, Slanting Wind The drizzle does not need to return'."

After hearing this, Gao Wushi could only smile wryly.

In life, sometimes you are really forced to be helpless, and you can only follow Buddhism.

He walked forward for another two days until he left the territory of Xiangyang Mansion without encountering any danger, and then passed through the territory of the left-behind division of Xingdu in the same way and arrived at Jingzhou Mansion.

Gao Wushi intends to stay in Jingzhou for a day and visit Zhang Juzheng's house. Although Zhang Juzheng was brought down by him, in fact, because only a few people knew the inside story, the outside world has never blamed Gao's uncle and nephew.Moreover, at that time Zhang Juzheng was leaving Beijing to return to his hometown. Since he was not allowed to use the post station, Gao Wushi personally sent his servants to escort him back to Jingzhou.

What made Gao Yushi even more relieved later was that Zhang Jingxiu, the boss of the Zhang family, and Zhang Maoxiu, the third child, who were going to take the Gengchen imperial examination this year, seemed to have no idea of ​​the reason for their father's death that year.

This forced Gao Wushi to pay homage to Zhang Juzheng when passing through Jingzhou. After all, in the eyes of the outside world, Zhang Juzheng was Gao Gong's close friend back then. After all, they didn't tear their faces openly, and they didn't roll up their sleeves to fight each other. Gao Gong even left after Zhang Juzheng's emotional agitation because of Zhang Juzheng's death, which shows that the two of them really cherish each other.

Arriving in Jingzhou on this day, Gao Wushi handed over the invitation card to Zhang's family, and went to pay homage to Zhang Juzheng as a junior.

It may be because Gao Yushi is an atheist, and he is very dull in some aspects. Anyway, he didn't feel that there was anything uncomfortable about Zhang Juzheng's grave, so he paid homage calmly.

However, among the brothers of the Zhang family, the eldest, the second, and the third are all Jinshi (the second Zhang Sixiu was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Wanli, and his grades may have problems in history. This book considers that Zhang Juzheng will personally guide him after returning home, so he should arrange a Jinshi), Currently all in the capital.

So in the end it was Zhang Jianxiu, an old acquaintance, who received Gao Pragmatically. This old man was not very good at reading, and because Zhang Juzheng lost his official position and returned to his hometown before, he didn't get any kindness, so he is still in his hometown now, and he doesn't have the same kindness as in history. Jin Yiwei Commander.But this may not be a bad thing, at least he won't be dismissed after two or three years.

Although Zhang Jianxiu was not good at reading, he was very hospitable. He insisted on staying at his house for a few days, saying that he wanted to "consult the scriptures and righteousness".

Gao Yushi said that he is going here to take office, and it is inconvenient to stay on official business, so it is better to come back next year when he returns to Beijing.

But Zhang Jianxiu still held him resolutely, and said: "To be honest, you don't know something. Recently, it was the time of the autumn flood in the Dajiang (Yangtze River). Even Zhou Guan has a headache now, Jingzhou City is still guarded by Jing Qu, and it is hard to say anything outside the city."

Observation is an elegant name for the Tao of Bingbei in the Ming Dynasty. It originated from the Observation Envoy in the Tang Dynasty, and it just corresponds to the level of "Tao".

The two main figures related to the military in Jingzhou City are the "Deputy Envoy of Military Equipment of the Division of Shangjingnan Road to Rectify and Return" and "Jingqu Garrison". , but in fact, the main task is to guard Jingzhou City, and the military affairs of several prefectures outside the city are generally directly managed by Bingbei Road.

Gao Wushi was a little surprised that there are water bandits in Huguang that can cause headaches for a whole army?
At this time, Liu Xin suddenly interjected and said, "Huya mountain and water bandits? Huya mountain is at the entrance of Xiajiang Pass, opposite to Jingmen mountain across the river. If the bandits control these two mountains, I will enter Sichuan via the Yangtze River. It's troublesome."

Gao Wushi glanced at her in astonishment, and thought: No wonder Liu Xian thinks she can command troops. It seems that good geography is still useful.
