Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

The Prime Minister's Manor's banquet had already reached its climax. Wine and delicacies were being consumed like flowing water, and the fireworks outside had already been going on for three consecutive hours without end.

Outside the Prime Minister's Manor, more and more people were celebrating. Almost everyone was talking about the Chinese Statute Book and thinking about the terms of the Chinese Statute Book.

It was impossible for everyone to understand the profound meaning behind Chinese Statute Book. In fact, most people chose to trust Xiao Letian because of their blind worship towards him, so they naturally believed that a prime minister who brought them away from the Japanese Shimadzu Family's colonization and led them to a good life would not harm everyone.

Moreover, Xiao Letian had not lost a single time since he led his troops into politics. This was also the root of the people's worship towards him.

In truth,'s personal worship was only one of the reasons why the citizens accepted the Chinese Statute Book. More importantly, it was due to jealousy and envy.

Around 4am in the morning, the number one grain merchant in Ryukyu, Shopkeeper Mi, walked out unsteadily from Prime Minister's Manor. Two servants stood beside him and helped him into the palanquin, but Shopkeeper Mi pushed aside the servants and chose to walk home. He wanted to enjoy this moment of glory.

Along the way home, Keeper Mi didn't even know how he managed to walk on cotton and returned home. All he remembered was that he cried and smiled along the way.

All the people on the road who knew him were looking at him with respect. Some of them even bowed to him. The Keeper Mi was no longer an ordinary person. Although he was a baron, he was still a miracle for a businessman!

What were those red-crowned merchants of the Great Qing Dynasty considered? The imperial government had bestowed upon them a few useless heads. A mere sixth or seventh rank position, yet they were so excited about the Ancestral Hall burning incense. Hu Xueyan was the number one god of wealth in Jiangnan, but what rank did the imperial government give him? The substitute said! It was only a fourth rank post.

Mi Fei laughed until his teeth were bared, he muttered to himself and said, "I am a noble too, hahaha …" The Mi Family's ancestor appeared! I want to rebuild my ancestral tomb, I want to beat the ground with limestone, I want to arch it with green brick, I can also put on the outside of my grandfather's coffin … This will anger those people who looked down on me back then to death! "Hahaha …"

"And that Old Wang next door, he's comparing himself to me every day! Compared today, why don't you compare with me! The ceremony system of the sixth and eighteenth ranks will be introduced soon. When the time comes, my house will always be taller than yours, and the decorations will always be more beautiful than yours! "

Wealth does not return to the village like silk clothes at night! Boss Mi completely understood the meaning of these words. As he got closer and closer to his home, he met with more and more familiar people, until finally, there were people who kneeled down before him.

First, the children and grandchildren of each family. They climbed up the long street and kowtowed to Keeper Mi as they greeted him, "Greetings to your Lordship …" Give Lord Mi a question mark... Uncle, Uncle, you have to give me some rewards! " The messy crowd of children roared, Mi Fei laughed until his eyes became slits.

"Reward! Reward!" Go to the store and bring out all the silver taels there, as a reward! " The waiter of the rice shop was so excited that his face was flushed. Under the orders of the young master, he carried out the Dragon-striated Silver Coin that was as slow as a mountain with a big basket.

Silver coins rolled on the street, the adults and children all grabbed them, Mi Fei laughed while clapping his hands.

Next to Boss Mi was a silk shop. Shopkeeper Wang could be said to be the largest silk merchant in the Ryukyu. Normally, he would fight with Mi Fei for wealth, and even in the repair shop, he would stealthily push the eaves of the house an inch above Old Mi's, fighting for this Mi Fei who had brought him here.

But today, Manager Wang who was in front of Boss Mi had a completely different appearance. His face had a weird expression, as if he was seriously constipated, when he saw Mi Fei return, he ran over from afar and bowed while bowing.

"Congratulations, Lord Mi, and Lord Xi Mi! Your Lordship, please forgive me for offending you in the past! "Son, come here …" Manager Wang shouted. His youngest son ran over like a wisp of smoke and kneeled in front of Mi Fei with a plop.

"Mi..." My lord! This is the title deed of my shop, which is the three-storey building next to your rice shop … I am giving it to you as a congratulatory gift! "Sir, please accept …"

Delightful! Awesome! This was the feeling after drinking the snow water in June! What does a man want in his life? Wasn't it just someone who would bow down before an official and look down on the person who looked down on him in the past?

Old Wang was terrified. He knew that the commoners could not fight with the officials, and even more so, they could not fight with their lords. This was not a matter of money or not, but a matter of status.

Old Mi looked at him silently for a long time. The night wind had gradually dispelled his drunkenness. Suddenly, Boss Mi pushed away the land deed his nephew was holding, and said with a sneer, "What are you saying? I just got a title and want to apply eye medicine on me? You want to frame me for stealing property? "

"Don't forget, the Chinese Statute Book wrote that the nobles will be punished with three times the law. Do you want me to die?"

Manager Wang was so scared that he started to sweat profusely, and then he kneeled down. "No, it's really not! This is my wedding gift, it really is. It's also my wedding gift when I walk into the yamen … Your Lordship, if you don't remember this lowly one, please let me off this disrespect! "

At this time, Wang Family's nephew also knelt down and kowtowed as if he was pounding garlic as he desperately begged. Hundreds of people were gathered on the street, watching.

Boss Mi took a deep breath, as if he had breathed out all the depressed Qi in his heart, and thought to himself, "Awesome! Too awesome! Luckily, he was able to follow the Prime Minister in this life! Without a Prime Minister, how could I be the same as I am today! "

Old Mi grabbed Old Wang, who was sitting next door, and patted him on the dirt. "You're being too considerate, too. Do you really think I hold a grudge?" We have been friends for life. When the Shimadzu Family ruled the Ryukyu, we drank and chatted together.

"Normally when you fight for wealth, what's a small grudge? "It's nothing important. If I was so petty, would the Prime Minister have bestowed me a title?"

Speaking of which, Boss Mi looked around at the surrounding neighbors and shouted loudly, "I, Mi Fei, don't have much ability. There are plenty of people in Ryukyu who are stronger than me in terms of business … But why did I get a title? "Why …"

"It's precisely because I mixed with the Prime Minister, I have no doubts! No hesitation! He was determined to walk his own path until the end! When the people of Ryukyu lack food, I will destroy the supply, and when the Prime Minister's army lacks rice and noodles, I will go all out to reward them! "

"I, Mi Fei, do not rely on unscrupulous conscience, relying on murder to become a lord! I relied on my good heart and conscience to become this lord! Do you think it's possible for me to take revenge on Old Wang? "

Everyone started whispering to each other. They all nodded and praised, "That's right, old Mi may have a few words of blabbermouth and love to fight, but it's good to be kind when things go wrong. Which one of the Ryukyu has not eaten their home of conscience before …" It's impossible for Old Mi to take revenge. Old Wang, you're thinking too much! "

The satin merchant's face was red with embarrassment. He bowed deeply, unable to speak. Mi Fei supported him and said, "If I can do it, you can do it too. You're smarter than me, so you might even be able to do it better!"

"The Prime Minister has already pointed out the Dao of Yang, what are you still hesitating for? Why don't you just follow me! Don't hesitate, don't doubt it! It's a great fortune for us to be able to meet such a fair sky in our lives! "
