Just thinking about it, Baolinghou and Zhongjinghou can figure it out.
How exciting was the original Great Court Meeting for Mr. Zheng, who had a somewhat soft personality?
I'm afraid that at that time, Mr. Zheng Er was feeling helpless and even despairing, right?
Thinking of this, Shuanghou Shijia felt a little embarrassed, knowing that the two brothers were a little embarrassed when they came over.
"Then what's the purpose of handing over the banknote to Cunzhou?"
Bao Linghou was thoughtful and said, "If you need our brothers to cooperate, just ask!"
Marquis Zhongjing nodded in agreement. After all, they were cousins who grew up together and their relationship was quite good.
They were dissatisfied with their aunt Jia Shi, and they also knew that although Mr. Zheng was the head of the Rong Mansion, he could not make the decision on some matters.
For example, if the connections in the Beijing camp are handed over to Wang Ziteng, the second master Zheng has no way to get involved.
With his somewhat pedantic temperament, he may not even know what connections he has in Jingying.
"I want to climb up, climb up quickly!"
When it comes to this matter, Mr. Zheng is also willing to fight for it.
Of course, facing two cousins with whom he had a good relationship, he completely let go at this time.
"With my ability, it is not that easy to enter the ranks of high-ranking officials!"
Mr. Zheng Er was very self-aware and said with a wry smile: "But I want to be promoted as soon as possible, so the only way is to please the current emperor!"
The Shijia Shuanghou nodded silently. They didn't want to climb up, but unfortunately they didn't have many opportunities.
After hearing what Mr. Zheng Er said, his heart lit up, but it was a pity that the Shi family had too few chips.
"Two cousins, you may not have experienced it personally. The feeling of being impeached but not being able to defend yourself on the spot, and not knowing what the future will be like is really terrible!"
Mr. Zheng Er explained the reason for his sudden adventure, and then continued: "In fact, it is very simple to please the emperor. As long as you know the most troublesome issues today and can help solve some of them, it is enough!"
At this point, his eyes lit up and he said loudly: "Isn't the biggest headache right now the issue of money and food?"
"It just so happened that the treasury's lack of silver was a good breakthrough point, so I took the risk and handed over the discount!"
Shijia Shuanghou nodded repeatedly, fully understanding the thoughts and style of the second master Zheng.
"Brother Cunzhou's mood is understandable. Just mentioning the issue of money owed to the treasury can easily arouse public outrage!"
Baolinghou reminded: "This is no joke!"
"Two cousins, we are all real relatives, I won't hide it from you either!"
Mr. Zheng Er pondered for a moment and decided to tell the truth. After all, he may need the support of the two cousins of the Shi family in the future, which is very important.
He didn't want to continue trying the feeling of being alone in the court.
"Did you know that Ning Rong's second house also owes money to the treasury, totaling 200 million taels!"
Mr. Zheng Er said a shocking number with a serious face.
"What, 200 taels?"
Shi Jia Shuanghou was startled, with a look of disbelief on his face.
There was a turmoil in my heart, and I never thought that Ning Rong's second mansion was also a big debtor of money to the national treasury?
"If I return the money owed to Ning Rong's second house, what will be the reaction today?"
Having said this, the second master Zheng showed an excited look on his face, and said leisurely: "I understood when my two cousins came to visit me. Now they are intending to collect money from the national treasury!"
"I'm afraid that the first one to pay back the money will be set as a benchmark today. The benefits will definitely be indispensable!"
Shijia Shuanghou was greatly excited, and his heart couldn't help but feel hot!
They also want to be promoted, even in their dreams!
Their father Shi Laolinggong reached the highest position of Shangshuling, which is equivalent to the chief minister of the cabinet!
It can be seen how prosperous the historian was at his peak!
As a result, in their generation, because of the abolition of the crown prince, the two brothers were promoted to superior marquises, but their actual official positions were pitifully low. How could they not have any ideas in their hearts?
"Brother Cunzhou, do you mean to use the money owed to the treasury of Ning Rong's second house as a stepping stone?"
Marquis Zhongjing said very directly: "This is a good idea!"
Mr. Zheng Er had an embarrassed look on his face and didn't know how to answer the question.
He really couldn't say the words that were too raw. They were very inconsistent with his past behavior and habits and the ideas in his heart. He was a bit like a scholar who is ashamed of his words.
"Let my nephew explain this matter to his two cousins!"
Jia Huan stood up at this time and said calmly: "Actually, my nephew encouraged my father to do this. Don't take offense to your two cousins!"
The eyes of the two princes of the Shi family were all looking at Jia Huan, their eyes full of inquiry and uncertainty.
"Ahem, two cousins, don't doubt it, this is true!"
Mr. Zheng Er explained: "Brother Huan has read a lot of history books in ethnic studies and is very interested in historical materials. By comparing some current situations, he can find prototypes from historical materials!"
"I saw that he had some talent, so I asked him to come to the big study room often to participate in discussions on some things. By the way, he can also learn and improve!"
"My two cousins also know what happened before. This boy is also bold. After leaving Jinyi Mansion, he proposed the idea of buying it with money and changing his official position!"
He said it smoothly, and he almost told the truth just now, which made Mr. Zheng Er blush slightly.
The two historians couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. They paid 200 million taels of silver to buy an official position. What a generous act!The look in his eyes towards Jia Huan has changed, as if he were looking at a prodigal son.
Jia Huan didn't care either. His figure at this time, due to long-term effective exercise, was no worse than that of an ordinary teenager in his early teens, so he was naturally less surprised by those looking at children.
There are many young geniuses in Daqian, but any young man who is talented in reading can be called a genius!
Due to the factors of living environment, there are also many young and mature geniuses.Therefore, although the two Shi Hou were surprised, they did not take it too seriously.
"Two cousins, if Ning Rong's second house pays back the 200 million taels of silver in one go, can I be directly promoted to the third rank?"
Jia Huan is really rude. After all, he is young and his direct speech is not offensive at all.
"This one……"
The Shuanghous of the Shi family were confused by the question. How should they answer this question?
Two million taels for a third-grade official position is more than enough.
"But if that happens, the master will really become the target of public criticism!"
Jia Huan said bluntly: "After all, raising prices is the most annoying thing!"
This is true. The original price of the official position has already been determined. If the second master of politics does this, wouldn't it directly raise the price a lot? Some people will scold me.
“So, my nephew’s idea is to recruit a few more people to repay the money together!”
Having said this, Jia Huan looked directly at the two Shi Hous with bright eyes.He chuckled and said: "The opportunity is really rare. If the two cousins are interested, they can also join in!"
"Of course, while I get the benefits, I also help my master bear part of the huge pressure from the court!"
Tsk, this guy really dares to say it!
Shi Jia Shuanghou's face was full of astonishment, but his heart was filled with excitement.
"Brother Cunzhou, is this what you mean?"
Bao Linghou asked impatiently: "This is a big deal, please don't deceive us!"
"Don't worry, cousin, I can't handle this on my own!"
Mr. Zheng Er said directly: "If I really want to show something now, it would be too wasteful for me to be the only one to benefit. That's a full 200 million taels of silver!"
Because of his insensitivity to money, when he mentioned the number 200 million taels, his voice began to tremble and the corners of his eyes twitched.
"So good!"
The two Shi Hou were overjoyed, but they had never thought of becoming fat in one go.
But as long as they take advantage of this opportunity to upgrade each of them to a level, it will be a pretty good harvest.
Especially Baolinghou, he is now a fourth-grade military general in the Dudu Mansion. If he is promoted to another level, he will reach the level of a third-grade senior general, and his situation in the Dudu Mansion will be greatly improved.
Fortunately, promotion as a military commander is easier and simpler than promotion as a civil servant. Especially for a person with quite sufficient background like Bao Linghou, promotion by one level is nothing these days.
As for this, it may arouse the dissatisfaction of the Supreme Emperor. Take the benefits first before talking about anything else!
"Two cousins, you might as well check it out after you go back. Is there money owed to the treasury in the house?"
At this time, Jia Huan reminded: "It would be best if there is any. When the time comes to repay the money, you two can stand directly with my master!"
"Oh, Brother Huan reminded me!"
Shi Jia Shuanghou was stunned at first, and then nodded in agreement with his suggestion.
If he had said this just after entering the house, he would have been treated as enemies directly by the two of them.
"It's better to have a treasury that owes money." What do you think? Do you think the historian's life is too easy and comfortable?
Now, of course, I have changed my mind. I wish my family really had money owed to the treasury that has not yet been repaid.
Otherwise, even if they want to take advantage of Rong Mansion, they are not so confident!
The two Marquises of the Shi family were so eager that they declined Master Zheng's invitation to stay for dinner, and left the Rong Mansion impatiently. Their faces were full of joy, and anyone who looked at them would know their good mood.
What a stark contrast to the worry I felt when I arrived!
"Master, relax now!"
Watching the two historian cousins leave in a hurry, Jia Huan then smiled and said: "It's easy to get help for good things!"
"I hope everything goes well this time!"
Mr. Zheng Er has indeed lost a lot of worries, and has gained a bit more confidence and joy in his heart.
At this moment, Yuanyang, the eldest maid of Rongqing Hall, came over and told the old lady that she was invited.
"Master, I won't go there!"
Jia Huan was the first to speak: "Master, just explain the situation to the old lady!"
He really didn't want to go to Rongqing Hall, as he wasn't very used to the atmosphere there of flowers and rouge.
Seeing that Yuanyang didn't say anything, he saluted Mr. Zheng and said goodbye, then turned around and left.
When Mr. Zheng's affairs got busy, he would leave the house directly.
I have been staying in the house for almost half a month, and I am really not used to it.
There are too few places to go, basically limited to a few small areas, and no one can stand it as time goes by.
He was not very happy with a life of being closely monitored.
