Yuan Fu Nushu

Chapter 24 Who is Yuan Tianjin?
Holding the note in both hands, he was excited to be able to work with the boss of the criminal department, his head turned quickly, and he quickly analyzed the case: "I obeyed, and I suddenly thought that maybe today's abduction case is a demonstration by a new kidnapper against an old kidnapper."

Yun Zhan wants to be more happy, this guy is really not stupid, but I am pointing in the wrong direction, how could you be right?

Slightly encouraging: "Let me listen."

"Since there are kidnappers living here, there have been no cases of abduction and trafficking in previous years. Could it be that rabbits don't eat grass beside their nests? Suddenly there are cases of abduction and trafficking, and there is an exclusive apricot exposed in a blatant way. Many children have been recruited in the past few days The humble official knows that robbers have their ways. After the adults just made it clear, the humble official now understands that this is not an ordinary kidnapping case. It's a competition between rivers and lakes."

You Zhen said that his face was flushed, as if he had really found a breakthrough in the case.

Yun Zhan held back his smile: "It's reasonable, since that's the case, you can do it now," stopped laughing, and said with a straight face: "Remember, report to me as soon as you find it, you have no right to alarm!"

"Yes, it is a humble job to listen to the adults. I cultivated it in my previous life. I am a humble job and take care of my errands. I will never disappoint the cultivation of the adults." You admit that he is not angry that he has no authority. On the contrary, he does not have the authority to prove the importance of this case. And this adult's status, he pondered again, what should I give?
As for what he said, there was really no other meaning, it was just a habitual officialdom cliché.

Yun Zhan smiled, and gave him a reassurance: "Don't worry, if it's really hidden in Xinji and you find it again, I won't treat you badly."

Youzheng's eyes are bright, judging from this smile, he guessed right, the teacher can rest assured, this adult probably has elders who recognize the teacher in his family, otherwise, how could he easily give himself a job and promise himself a word.

With the status of an adult, if you promise it, you will naturally be promoted.

It seems that the relationship is getting closer invisibly, so it’s okay to say, send money, send money, send money!Sending money is the most affordable. He gives me the official, and I pay some money. That's okay.

When giving a gift, if the adult adds his name on the official application for meritorious service, and other people refuse to agree, he can't open the gift. It is convenient to send money, and he can pay a few taels of money for dinner and dinner.

What did he think at this time, what did he think he was right, the words "give money" were fixed in his mind, he stepped back step by step, stepped back down the steps, and then exited the courtyard door, safe and sound.

The two middle-aged family members pretending to be businessmen were also funny to watch. After closing the courtyard door, one came in to collect the teacup You recognized. Yun Zhan called him: "Uncle Hou, you have been with my father for many years, do you remember Yuan Tianjin?"

The middle-aged man's name is Hou Ping. He used to be a soldier of Duke Hu, and later he was a family general. After Yun Zhan was born, he was assigned to be his guard, and Yun Zhan called him uncle.

Holding the tea bowl, Hou Ping was at a loss: "Yuan Tianjin? I haven't heard the Duke mention it. Is he an old general? Which barracks?"

"He's an elderly scholar, quite influential in Xinji," Yun Zhan said.

Hou Ping let out a sigh of relief: "Then I definitely don't know him. All my life, I have a headache when I read books, and I feel bored when I see scholars. If the Duke said that I can become a general and follow him for the rest of my life, I don't even want to learn my own name."

Hou Ping is a soldier who was taken back from the outside by the Duke of the Protector. The one who came out of the Duke of the Protector's House is naturally the kind of Niu Wenwen. He dare not say that he is both civil and military. He has at least read the book, and it is not a problem to write official documents by himself.

Yun Zhan looked into the courtyard, another middle-aged guard was given by his mother. He came out of the palace. He was even more skilled. He was married as a dowry, and there are still rumors that he loves the princess deeply, and that he is not a guard in the palace but a slave.

Yun Zhan knew the inside story back then, and Duke Huguo naturally knew about it. For a period of time, Duke Huguo's mansion pursued such rumors until everything calmed down.Later, some people slowly said, but the voice is low and the range is small, and the Duke of the Protectorate is too lazy to care about it.

Hou Ping also looked at the courtyard: "Old Gong."

A guard named Gong Jian came in and tapped his forehead with his finger: "Yuan Tianjin? I think I've heard it before, but I can't remember it."

Yun Zhan was relieved: "That's what my mother told me. When I go home and ask my mother, I will know who he is."

Let Hou Ping and Gong Jian go out, and Yun Zhan continued to read the official documents.

They still didn't deliberately avoid Luan Jing who was next door. When he found out, he realized that Yun Zhan didn't care.

If You hadn't admitted to the major abduction and trafficking case, Yun Zhan had planned to let the people he was looking for know that he was in the new episode.

That night, Youzheng and his wife coaxed their daughter, Sister Ting, to sleep, and discussed the matter of giving gifts on the bamboo couch, but half an hour passed without success, mainly because the money was not enough.

You recognize the official position, with a salary of less than 100 taels a year, which is much better than ordinary people farming according to current prices.

But the common people who farm the land have low expenses. He is an official. Standing in the yamen and looking up, he is older than him. A year of human relations is enough for him. He used to not even be able to afford a bamboo sedan chair, so he had to sit in a sedan chair. Hire one.

He was also born as a poor scholar, and the old master Yuan had sponsored people in those years. He especially respected the teacher, and there was a reason why he never forgot.

It is impossible for a poor scholar to match a high school. When he and his wife got married, the family scraped together 12 taels of silver for the engagement, wedding, new house, wedding banquet, etc. At that time, it was not far from him to take the exam, and his wife’s natal family scraped together [-] taels of silver for the dowry. Two boxes, each containing a thick quilt, and the girl's four clothes.

After You recognized the marriage, he took the silver as money.

The Li family dared to gossip about what You thought was the marriage of the niece and daughter of her natal family. That is, when the Li family gave out the dowry, considering the matter of the son-in-law’s money, she asked You’s consent in advance: “You need to spend money to get married. We simply accompany the money, although only two It’s not a good-looking box, but you’ve got the money.”

Some people may ask, in the places near Xinji Town that are neither south nor north, eight liang of silver is difficult to enter Beijing, and you can't afford food and housing in Beijing.

In the past, when poor scholars rushed to take the exam, there were those who started a year in advance.Traveling during the day and reading after staying at night, it is possible to live in a hotel if you have money, but if you don’t have money, you can live in a temple or live under the eaves of someone else’s house and read by the lights of others.

Do part-time jobs on the road, write letters for others, and get to the capital as long as you can.

Taking other people’s boats in the canal can also save money. The boatmen who transport food and goods use this method to earn extra money on the way. It’s cheap, but most of them don’t care about food, and the boats don’t know when they will stop at the pier. They must buy steamed buns and dry food in advance. , there is a lot of water in the river, as long as you don't have a stomachache, you won't be thirsty.

It is impossible to have a bed for sleeping, and the general will fall asleep on the ship board, as long as he can reach the capital.

It was the same after entering Beijing, looking for a cheap place to live, writing letters for someone else, and working as a capable part-time job.

Both of these couples were born in poverty, how much money do they have now?

Since ancient times, businessmen have made money. Xinji originally had a population of about 100 households. In addition, foreign businessmen needed to please officials, especially those who came here with a clean sleeve. Now there are about [-] taels of silver in Li Shi's purse.

If you can choose, he doesn't want to leave. His enthusiasm for promotion is only limited to his enthusiasm for drilling. If he doesn't have this enthusiasm, given the actual situation of this dynasty, he is still sitting on the bench.

He dare not get rich and greedy for ink.

The money obtained is as far as possible without looking for a later account, and it is for the merchants to work hard, and the merchants are voluntarily grateful.

With the money in their hands, both husband and wife are satisfied. If it wasn't for the fact that Xinji had an official in the past, You would be willing to stay in Xinji for the rest of his life.

His home is in the county seat, not far away, Li's family is also in the county seat, his teacher is here, he spends his days and nights with Yuan Lian, and he uses the Yuan family's reputation to get closer to the businessmen. Here is the happiness that You recognize day.
