Huang Haoyi returned home that night.
His wife was a virtuous man. Liu Jiancheng, who originally wanted to be his father-in-law, later found out that he was Zhang Yue's relative and introduced him to a new marriage in order to make up for his mistake.
This is a niece of his collateral line. Although the family fortune of this collateral line has fallen into decline, Liu Jiancheng recognized the marriage and gave a lot of dowry to Huang Haoyi. He was afraid of offending Huang Haoyi, so he made more amends.
Now Huang Haoyi is also married and starting a business.
Huang Meiyi's wife is quiet and elegant, and she is a good match.
After marrying the other party, Huang Meiyi also settled down. Huang Meiyi's wife was very thoughtful. Seeing Huang Meiyi's strange look, she asked, "Does the official have any problems?"
Huang Haoyi raised his wife outside, so he didn't dare to look directly at his wife's face and said perfunctorily: "Nothing, nothing."
Huang Haoyi's wife was very kind and said: "You usually complain about this and that at home, but don't forget that you are more than above, less than below, more than below. Cherish the present moment and don't think about this or that?"
Huang Haoyi said: "Don't think too much, just rest early."
Huang Haoyi didn't sleep well that night. He wanted to confess the matter to Zhang Yue, but he also thought that Zhang Yue was very strict with the people around him and was afraid of being scolded by him.
Huang Haoyi thought about it for a while and thought, Sanlang might kill me when he is angry, but his wife is reasonable, so it is better to inform her first to give her a solution.
Huang Haoyi thought it was a good idea, so he wrote a letter confessing the matter, and then went to Zhang's Mansion and handed it to Mother Chen. Mother Chen has some contacts with Huang Haoyi, so she is willing to convey it to him.
After a while, Mother Chen came out to see Huang Haoyi and asked him a few words before letting him go back.
After Zhang Yue returned home that day, the Seventeenth Mother told Zhang Yue about Huang Haoyi.
After hearing this, Zhang Yue suddenly lost his temper and cursed: "Where is Huang Si? I must blame him heavily."
Seventeen Niang said: "Guanren, I asked him to go back first."
Zhang Yue frowned and said, "Why do you indulge him so much? If I don't punish him heavily, how will I manage my subordinates in the future?"
Seventeen Niang said: "My lord, I am not stopping you from blaming your subordinates, but Huang Silang is not only your subordinate, but also your friend for many years."
Zhang Yuezheng said angrily: "I don't have a friend like him, we are just classmates for a few years."
"Just treat him as a classmate, but he confessed this matter to you, officer, so you give him a chance. Officer, you are now back in Bianjing. Where is Bianjing? It is a world of flowers and the largest gold sales den in the world. You can be an upright official, but how can you ensure that your subordinates are as good as you?"
"Now that he knows he made a mistake, if you confess to you and you blame him heavily, other subordinates will not tell you the truth if they make mistakes in the future."
Zhang Yue nodded after listening to Qi Niang's words. Since he was willing to take the initiative to confess the matter, it meant that he was not lost.
Then Zhang Yue thought again, Huang Si said that he was stupid, but he was very cunning. He actually knew that he would be reprimanded if he approached him directly, so he turned to Qi Niang to plead for mercy. Could this guy use all his intelligence? Are you here?
Zhang Yue thought for a moment and said, "My lady is right. Since he has made it clear to me, I will return the woman named Wanruo to my dear brother, so that I can spare him this time." "
[Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of sounds, and supports offline reading.
His mother told him that he would not be held responsible for his mistakes, but he would not do it again. "
"Besides, this matter should not be done at all. It was my brother who started it."
Zhang Yue nodded slightly, and then he thought about what Seventeenth Mother said. It is true that people must have something to think about when seeking refuge with him.
Huang Haoyi's incident also reminded him that he was now an important minister of the Communist Party of China. After being promoted to a Hanlin bachelor's degree, he received a monthly salary of 120 guan and an additional 30 pieces of silk. In addition, he was also given an additional 50 guan for his position. When Zhang Yue first took up his post as the Prime Minister of Dali Temple, his monthly salary was ten thousand and four hundred cents, which was simply incomparable.
In addition, there are also a hundred stones of grains, five liters of wine, one liter of glutinous wine, tea, six buckets of cooking ingredients, one stone and two buckets of flour, in addition to firewood, mugwort, charcoal, salt and other things. This is the advantage of being an official. There are basically no expenses. Everything is paid for by the court, so this monthly salary is equal to net income.
This is just a bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy. If you are also a judge of the third department or a deputy privy envoy, there can be more.
Moreover, Zhang Yue didn't care about salary at all. Seventeen Niang managed the family well and also held shares in the Exchange. Her dowry now probably amounted to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Although it was a shameful thing to worry about your wife's dowry at the time, it has always been the Zhang family's family tradition to live a soft life and eat hard.
But the days of my few concubines were not very good.
Li Kui is a scholar, and now he is returning to his hometown to prepare for another exam.
The Bietou Examination is the first-class provincial examination. Officials can recommend their own followers to participate.
In the Fujian Road and Township Examination, only one or two people can be selected out of 100, which can be said to be difficult to reach the sky. However, in the other examinations, only 15 people can be selected out of 100, which can be said to greatly increase the chance of passing the exam.
So Zhang Yue provided Li Kui with a shortcut to the south.
But the rest of the disciples, especially Huang Haoyi and Peng Jingyi, only had a monthly salary of five guan.
Peng Jingyi had already brought his wife and children to Bianjing for resettlement. Although Zhang Yue sent Peng Jingyi's two sons to study in his own private school, it was not easy to live in Bianjing.
When Zhang Yue was in the northwest, he was able to spend a lot of money and titles to reward soldiers and court servants. He handled millions of dollars, and he did not deduct a penny from it. However, he was too harsh on the people around him. In retrospect, he was too picky. .
What kind of place is Bianjing? It's a world of soft reds and materialistic desires.
As for the ghost realm of people's hearts in this world, you will know it if you have seen Jin Ping Mei, but Jin Ping Mei is not enough to describe this Bianjing city.
Zhang Yue said to the Seventeenth Mother: "From now on, the concubines will receive money from my salary every month, and each of them will receive an additional five guan, five shi of rice, and two bolts of silk."
"Okay, officer."
Zhang Yue walked outside the house and said, "Let Jingyi come and see me."
…
At this moment, Huang Haoyi was restless and frightened all day long at home.
Now Huang Haoyi couldn't wait to leave Bianjing immediately and take his wife and children to his hometown in Jianzhou. If he hadn't been reluctant to leave, he would have done so long ago.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Huang Haoyi's whole body trembled. When he opened the door, he saw Peng Jingyi standing in front of the door.
Huang Haoyi knew that Peng Jingyi had gone through a lot in these years, and he was becoming more cruel and ruthless, not to mention that the other party was getting younger and younger. During Zhang Yue's years in the northwest, some difficult matters were entrusted to him. Huang Haoyi usually pretends not to care about this person, but he is still quite afraid of him in his heart.
Now when Peng Jingyi met Huang Haoyi, he just said lightly: "Pack your bags."
Huang Haoyi's heart sank and he immediately broke out with sweat on his forehead: "I told Peng Da that Mr. Wu Dalang said that he had no ill intentions towards San Lang, but he just wanted to bring them together because of some festivals before. He said that as long as I can mend the relationship between him and San Lang, in the future, No matter what the good is, he will never forget me. I didn’t agree with him at that time.”
Seeing that Peng Jingyi was speechless, Huang Haoyi almost begged: "Peng Da, can you allow me to see Sanlang one last time? Can I beg for mercy from him in person?"
After saying this, Huang Haoyi almost shed tears.
Peng Jingyi coughed lightly and said, "Huang Si, Duke Duanming asked you to live in the Academy for three months without being allowed to go home. You will live in the one next to the stable. Yes, it is the stable with three mares."
After a pause, Peng Jingyi said to Huang Haoyi: "Silang, I have never said anything to you before. You have read more books than me, so you must have learned a lot from the books. Although I have read less books,
, but I only learned one thing from the history books: how did those emperors, generals and ministers deal with traitors? This time, thanks to Duan Minggong's kindness. "
…
Zhang Yue was at the Bachelor's College that day, and Huang Lu came to report something.
Huang Lu now knows the admonishment court and is also a judge and prisoner. He went to Huainan a few days ago for the Huainan West Road inspection envoy. Now he has just returned to Bianjing and missed his meeting with Zhang Yue.
Ever since Zhang Yue resigned and was imprisoned, Chen Xiang succeeded him, and then Huang Lu succeeded him. They have always ensured that the wealth does not flow to outsiders.
After Wang Anshi implemented the new law, Lu Huiqing and Zeng Bu both intended to let the Sansi or Sinong Temple directly take over the prison, but Wang Anshi refused.
Zhang Yue knew that this was the promise he made with Wang Anshi, so Wang Anshi never touched this three-acre land. Zhang Yue was also very happy that Wang Anshi kept his promise. The words he had agreed with Wang Anshi had not changed after so many years.
In fact, there is another reason why Wang Anshi has not been handed over to prison, because it is difficult for anyone to come. For example, most of the people employed by the Institute were Taipei students. In recent years, the officials in the main positions of the Institute were inextricably linked to Zhang Yue, and they had become an important base for him.
In recent years, Zhang Yue has not used any power from the Exchange and has maintained a low profile. Chen Xiang and Huang Lu did not interfere too much with the exchange through administrative power. In short, it was Xiao Guicao's rule to follow Zhang Yue's rules, only occupying shares and not interfering with operations.
The current annual dividend of the Exchange has stabilized at around 3 million yuan, and most of these dividends subsidize the Shaanxi Transshipment Department and the Third Division.
Due to the establishment of the Exchange Office, there were hundreds of exchange shops in the world, which is where Zhang Yue went when he was the judge of salt and iron.
This is Panjialou Street, which can be called the Wall Street of the Song Dynasty. Today, nearly one-third of the hundreds of Jiaoyin shops are closed, because in addition to salt Yin, they include Qian Yin, Tea Yin, Xiang Yin Yin, and Alum Yin. , all the ivory business was snatched away by the imperial court.
This exchange is out to steal money and seize the profits of these financial groups.
They are also "competing with the people for profit", but their methods are completely different compared to Wang Anshi.
To use Huang Lu's words to describe it, Zhang Yue's method is Guan Zhong's method of "seeing the form of giving but not the principle of taking away".
