Ming politicians

Chapter 33 Careful Planning

That night, Su Tiancheng suffered from insomnia, and what Su Huawen said still touched his heartstrings. You must know that in this era, land is very important. Princes, dukes and relatives occupy large quantities of land and rely on it. The harvest is very rich, even if it is a big merchant, the ultimate development path is to buy land.No matter how ambitious you are, you always have to take it step by step. If you lack the necessary foundation, and it is not difficult to struggle, you may not have the opportunity to rise to the top.Don't think that the ancients were just stupid, they were smart and could see many things clearly.

In this world, people are snobbish, and no one can be exempt. You have no ability, and you can't blame others for looking down on you and bullying you. In such a troubled world, the law of the jungle preys on the strong, so it is only natural to develop your own strength. Most importantly, the rest of the things can be left behind for the time being.

Su Tiancheng didn't have those foolish and loyal thoughts. Since time travelling, he has experienced a series of things, which made him urgently feel that there must be a capable armed force by his side, at least to be able to protect himself.

In Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan, Shandong and other places, due to the intrusion of rogues, many big and wealthy households have begun to recruit nurses. The original intention of the nurses is of course to protect the mansion. It's not simple, there is a lot to make a fuss about here.

The military settlement system of the Ming Dynasty basically existed in name only. The three major conquests during the Wanli period were mostly recruited sergeants. Some strong sergeants would rather go to rich families to work as nursing homes. The treatment is good. The fleeing military households, or Joined the team of rogues, or sneaked into the rich family's house to work as a nursing home.

Su Tiancheng also thought that he could recruit some nursing homes, but to do such a thing, he must have money and land. Without these necessary foundations, everything is empty talk.It may not be that you have great foresight, and it may not be that you stand on a high place and raise your arms, and people will follow you wholeheartedly. This is deceiving yourself. The economic foundation determines the superstructure. As a leader in his previous life, he is See why.

Su Huawen agreed to transfer the land of Pingyang Fucheng to his own name, but this may not be possible. The key is that the aunt will come out to oppose it. Su Huawen has been relying on the aunt for a long time. At critical moments, she may not be able to persist Well, if I can't think of a way and can't completely touch Su Huawen, I'm afraid I won't be able to get these lands.

I don't have much time, I have to take part in the rural examination next year, and I have to leave at the end of July at the latest. I will be very busy in May after the winter wheat harvest, instructing the tenants to plant sweet potatoes and corn, and instructing the tenants to manage the field. Only when the sweet potatoes and corn grow healthily can they go to Taiyuan Prefecture to take part in the provincial examination.

Therefore, the issue of land ownership must be thoroughly settled before the year.

Su Huawen will stay in Pingyang Fucheng for a while. Now that he is back, he always wants to say hello to some old acquaintances, and he also needs to walk around. Said, publicize it in advance, saying that the matter of the old house is up to Su Tiancheng.

Su Tiancheng didn't accompany him to visit. He couldn't do such a thing. The people Su Huawen visited were all merchants after all, and he was a scholar. Heaped up, and being known by those with ulterior motives is another condiment to deal with oneself.

On the tenth day of December, at noon.

Su Pingyang hurried into Su Tiancheng's room.

"Master, the eldest nainai and the second young master are back."

Su Tiancheng stood up suddenly, he came so fast, Su Huawen came back on the eighth day, and they arrived on the tenth day.

Su Tiancheng has always felt that this letter from the chamber of commerce is not that simple, and there must be some content behind it. He didn't expect it to come so fast. It seems that something has been done this time.

"So, are they coming back to the mansion soon?"

"Not necessarily. I heard from Niu Er that when they entered the city, Lei Fanggui was waiting at the gate of the city. They seemed to have followed Lei Fanggui to Lei's house."

"How did Niu Er know?"

"Niu Er came to the city to do something, happened to see it, and followed him from a distance. After seeing the eldest nainai and the second young master arriving at Lei's house, he hurried over to report."

"Oh, Niu Er is smart. Is he still in the mansion?"

"No, I originally wanted to keep him and leave after eating, but he said he had something to do and left in a hurry."

The autumn wind that spreads brings rain at night. Su Tiancheng never thought that it would be rewarded so soon.

God help me too, Su Tiancheng laughed, why are auntie and Su Tianran so stupid, when they returned to Pingyang Fucheng, they actually went to Lei Wentong's house, no matter if it was Lei Fangui who picked him up at the gate of the city or not Invited, they still need at least the ability to judge.

"Uncle, go find your father immediately and tell him that the aunt and second brother have gone to Lei's Mansion. Hurry up and tell father now, and be careful not to let others know."

By this time, Su Tiancheng could already conclude that the letter from the chamber of commerce was exactly what Lei Wentong meant.

Lei Wentong's plan can be said to have grasped the key point, using the hands of Su Huawen and the aunt to kill himself, just imagine, the land belongs to Su Tianhao or Su Tianran, no matter how hard he is, no matter what he does, it doesn't matter much Relying on 30 taels of silver per month, I live my life tight, wanting to realize those ambitions and dreams.

Besides, in such a situation, one's own fate is in the hands of others. Things in the world are uncertain, and one's own destiny must be determined by oneself. If Su Huawen encounters something suddenly, Let go, what should I do, there is no way out.

Lei Wentong's idea was originally a good one, but it was a pity that it was superfluous, the aunt and Su Tianran returned to Pingyang Fucheng, of course they went home directly, what are they doing at his house.

Moreover, Su Huawen has already understood the truth, the letter from the chamber of commerce has a direct relationship with Lei Wentong.

Half an hour later, Su Huawen returned to the mansion with a pale face.

He looked at Su Tiancheng, but stopped talking.

"Father, the boy has already made up his mind. The letter from the chamber of commerce is what Lei Wentong meant."

"Kun Yuan, why do you say that, Boss Lei is your elder, so he wouldn't do such a thing."

"Why did Lei Wentong do this? I don't want to analyze it for the time being, but Lei Wentong has sinister intentions. I can analyze it. I can be sure that the letter from the chamber of commerce has also been received by the aunt. She came here in a hurry. The purpose is to teach the boy a lesson. After the aunt arrived in Pingyang Fucheng, she was taken into the mansion by Lei Fangui, my son never imagined that Lei Wentong could not wait so much."

"Oh, what do you think?"

"Father, the so-called family and everything are prosperous. If there is a conflict in the family, the government will have nothing to do. Father knows the situation in the family. The child doesn't want to talk about it. If Lei Wentong's clever words move the aunt, what do you think? Will the family be safe? I don’t know what will happen. At that time, the father will not be interested in dealing with the store, and the child will be caught in endless quarrels. Isn’t Lei Wentong the happiest when such a situation occurs? .”

Su Huawen had long suspected that it was Lei Wentong who did the tricks, but he didn't expect that Lei Wentong would send a letter to his wife, not to mention whether there was such a situation, the lady came to Pingyang Fucheng, First go to Lei's house, what does this mean.He is clear about Madam's thoughts, and he has never expressed his position, but now, the matter is imminent.

When he came to Pingyang Fucheng, Su Huawen didn't tell his wife, because he wanted to avoid some troubles.

Su Tiancheng's analysis made him more firm in his previous thoughts. No matter what, this time, some things must be settled. Otherwise, if the delay is long, what will happen is uncertain. .

"Kun Yuan, what you said is reasonable. I have made my own decisions about some things. I know many things in the past, and I know how to deal with them. After all, you are a junior. When you speak and do things, you still have to be careful. own attitude."

Su Huawen tactfully reminded Su Tiancheng that after his wife and Su Tianran returned home, their attitudes were better. After these two days of contact, he already felt that Su Tiancheng's personality had changed a lot. If you admit defeat easily, there may be a fierce quarrel on the spot. At that time, it will be difficult for you to coordinate.
