"You actually know that the other party is Mr. Wu An?" Jia Xu said with a faint smile.
"I'm not really stupid, but sometimes I don't know that it's good for everyone." Chen Xi said flatly, how could he not know.
It was true that Chen Xi didn't recognize Han Xin for the first time, but it was completely impossible that he didn't recognize Wu Anjun. The gap between the two sides' painting styles was really too big.
"If someone still thinks you are stupid these days, then you are a real fool." Jia Xu replied with a faint smile, "You might as well go and listen, but today you were fooled by the Empress Dowager. After so many years of being smart, There are times when I’m confused.”
"Care will lead to chaos." Chen Xi replied casually and nodded slightly to the person saluting him. It is said that he has mental protection on his body. If he doesn't take the initiative to remove it, he will naturally ignore it in the eyes of normal people, so he can say hello. They are all acquaintances.
"Maybe you have some ideas and want to see what I think." Jia Xu is already a middle-aged uncle, so he doesn't have the shyness of a young man.
It is said that because of Tang Ji's control, Jia Xu's originally fat body has lost weight. In addition, his cultivation of Qi and Qi Gang is no joke. He looks majestic, not to mention the poetry and calligraphy in his belly. , Jia Xu can also be regarded as a middle-aged handsome guy.
"What do you think?" Chen Xi said with a smile.
"Cold salad." Jia Xu said angrily.
"When Wen Ru comes back, let's clear out our household registration status. We can't really cross the line. Since we're mentally prepared, we'd better eliminate the hidden dangers in advance." Chen Xi looked aside and said casually. Jia Xu didn't say much else. It's just a matter of dealing with the situation at that time.
When Chen Xi and Jia Xu arrived at Manxiang Tower, Lord Wu An had already left. After all, Lord Wu An was more responsible than Han Xin. The other party would spend more or less time every day to train the palace guards.
It has to be said that Bai Qi is obviously better than Han Xin in this aspect. Bai Qi, who has a professional background, even if he is not the best group of people in terms of military training, the imperial guards of the palace are gradually becoming more capable under Bai Qi's training. As we become stronger, I estimate that after a while, we will be able to change the group of people.
"I've seen Marquis Chen, Marquis Shouting." When Chen Xi and Jia Xu came in, the boy at the door quickly saluted, and then someone was sent from the lobby to take Chen Xi to the private room that had been reserved.
"It seems like Mrs. Liu is not here." Jia Xu entered the private room. Even after the dishes were served, he didn't see the shopkeeper Liu Luo appear, and said to Chen Xi with ridicule.
"Probably going to provide disaster relief." Chen Xi thought for a while and said, "After all, there has been an epidemic recently, and she always joins in the fun on such things."
Jia Xu smiled, but he knew what this disaster relief was about. In fact, it was not a very serious illness. It could only be said that the weather was getting warmer and the climate suddenly changed. It was not an epidemic, it could only be said to be a cold. There were a lot of people, and we happened to encounter Rome, so we solved it together.
"Ms. Liu is a thoughtful person." Jia Xu nodded after listening to Chen Xi's words.
The reason why Liu Luo's business has become so big over the years, apart from Chen Xi's backstage, is that Liu Luo has been doing charity implicitly. This is also why the Yuan family was able to force Liu Luo to get a woman from Taichang. Madam's clerical reasons.
Although many of them are from the Yuan family, and everyone in the Taichang family owes some favors to the Yuan family, but if Liu Luo does not have enough capital, the Taichang family also needs to be embarrassed, and you can't just let the Yuan family say it will be distributed. Distribute it, at least write down the reason for the distribution, and make up a reasonable one.
After all, the lady's documents in this era are bound to the princes.
Half of the reason why Liu Luo was able to get Taichang to send his wife's documents after establishing a relationship with Taichang in the Yuan family was because Liu Luo had done enough good deeds. As for the rest, it was because of Liu Luo's other A backstage person is Chen Xi.
"I can't make enough money. I used to think about getting married, but now I don't want to get married anymore. I have adopted an orphan girl and plan to pass it on." Chen Xi said casually. If nothing else, just Liu Luo's sharp eyesight, Chen Xi has I always lament that even though she had his protection, she was able to seize the opportunity to reach this point. To be honest, Liu Luo's rise from the bottom to where she is now is not much easier than Guo Si's rise from a horse bandit to a noble lord.
"Didn't you tell her?" Jia Xu asked curiously.
"What did you say?" Chen Xi looked at Jia Xu in confusion and said.
"The Yuan family left a land of fifty miles as a gift to the Liu family. There is also a coal mine, a small iron mountain, and some other mineral deposits on it." Jia Xu replied casually.
Chen Xi smiled when he heard this, "The Yuan family is really interesting. I really don't know about this."
"When the Yuan family got Mrs. Liu's documents, they also gave them to her. However, Mrs. Liu returned them and only accepted the documents. But she shouldn't have thought that the things Yuan gave her would be taken back." Jia Xu picked up the wine glass and said with some memories.
The old Yuan family started the mode of burning land deed documents, which was actually inspired by Liu Luo. Chen Xi actually did not actively promote this matter. After all, some things are beneficial to most people, but it does not mean that they are legally binding. That's exactly right.
Although the law is not a favor, it is impossible for Chen Xi to do such a thing and ask all the aristocratic families who left the Central Plains to burn all the land deeds, receipts and other things. The most Chen Xi can do is to persuade the aristocratic families to move away. The moment the double-entry calculation of interest is drawn The rest symbol ends from now on.
When the then elder of the Yuan family met Liu Luo, after a nonsensical exchange between the two parties, the Yuan family was enlightened anyway. It can be said that it was precisely because of that enlightenment that the Old Yuan family entered the population. Expansive fast track.
You must know that Xun Chen's strategy later was actually based on the inspiration that the old Yuan family got from Liu Luo's words. It can be said that that unexpected encounter was the beginning of the old Yuan family turning to the right path. , which is why the old Yuan family gave Liu Luo a document for his wife.
In this era, wives' documents were basically bound to the princes themselves. Only the head wives of princes could be called madams. Of course, after becoming a duke, concubines of princes and kings and concubines of emperors could also be called so.
Therefore, theoretically speaking, there is no hope that a husband who is not honored by a prince can be called a wife. "Book of Rites: Qu Lixia": "The emperor's concubine is called the queen, and the princes are called the wife." This was relaxed in the Han Dynasty. , the head wife of a prince is his wife. Of course, the further back he goes, the more liberal he will be.
This is why when Liu Luo received the set of things brought by the Yuan family, she hesitated and accepted it, because apart from that one time, it was basically impossible to have another chance. Even now, Liu Luo doesn't understand what Yuan's family is. How is this done?
"Fifty miles, that's one county." Chen Xi thought for a while and said, "It's not bad. The Liu family told me the reason. Even if there is some mistake, the Yuan family can get a person from the Liu family. It’s a great opportunity, so I should be compensated.”
Chen Xi didn't mind anything. The old Yuan family's messing around was the old Yuan family's business. Anyway, as long as you don't challenge the Han Dynasty, you can do whatever you want on your own territory.
"From a certain point of view, this is also a lucky person." Jia Xu took two bites of food and said, "Many things that small families want to achieve, she did it unknowingly."
"It's hard to explain something like luck." Chen Xi said with a smile, "What's more, I think kind people generally have good luck."
Jia Xu sneered when he heard this. The conclusion Chen Xi sometimes came to seemed to Jia Xu to make him laugh. Kind people generally have good luck? How did you come to the conclusion that in twenty years, kind people would die miserably.
"But I'll just say this now. Other times, kind people run into walls too many times, so they can't be kind." Chen Xi sighed and said, It's not that kind people are lucky, but they are unlucky, and they are very unlucky. Most kind people are unable to maintain that kindness. After all, most kind people in this world are just ordinary people.
"This can be regarded as a fact." Jia Xu nodded and said, "Let's talk about the Yuan family."
"The Yuan family, to be honest, is quite powerful. They have luck and ability." Chen Xi thought for a while and said, "But to be honest, after going through so much, they still haven't collapsed. In the end, they have accumulated capital. As long as they don't die, It’s not too bad. It’s said that the sharp edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. With my current ability, I not only don’t realize there’s something wrong with it, but I also feel a little weak.”
The Yuan family has obvious shortcomings that cannot be repaired in a short time, so that they cannot fully exert their own strength, but Xun Chen and others are also working hard to make up for it.
Yuan Tan has received more blows in the past six or seven years than Cao Cao has received in more than ten years. After Chen Xi discovered this, he was inexplicably optimistic about Yuan Tan. If he continues to hammer and forge like this, the scrap metal should become a hundred forged iron. Steel.
"Can you do it?" Jia Xu suddenly asked.
"What?" Chen Xi looked at Jia Xu in confusion. This time he really didn't react.
Jia Xu looked at Chen Xi twice and reached out to press the reply letter from Yuan. Chen Xi thought about it and nodded, "Theoretically speaking, I can do it, and I knew it when I came into contact with it." There is a feeling that this thing was handed over to me by Xu Ziyuan's hand, and my use of this thing is far better than Xu Ziyuan's plan."
"Don't build it yet." Jia Xu thought for a moment and then looked at Chen Xi and said, "If you feel that way, postpone this thing for now."
"What? Is there any hidden danger in this thing?" Chen Xi looked at Jia Xu in confusion and said.
"No, it can only be said to be some other considerations." Jia Xu said flatly, "Don't you think Xu You's plan based on water veins, topography, and celestial phenomena is a bit like the mythical Hetu Luoshu ?”
