This morning, Wang Zhongxiao walked slowly through the crowd of people on Zhengyangmenwai Street with his hands behind his back.
He has finished his first "six-day shift" in the Forbidden City. He left the palace and returned to his home in Douzhaocai Hutong yesterday evening.
Wang Zhongxiao's "six-day shift" was full of rewards. First of all, he had a new job. When he went to work at the guard's office, he was Uncle Wang, the janitor of the house cleaning department. However, he didn't expect that before he started working as a janitor, he Already promoted. He was promoted from janitor to foreman of the wrestling team! The official official name is Kubu Kubu Foreman.
As expected by Duolong, Obai did not block the establishment of the Kubu Department. Perhaps in his view, this was just a place for children to play - the little emperor was very playful and had nothing to do with a powerful minister like him. No, just let him play.
Therefore, most of the establishment of the Kubu Department was completed in a few days. King Yu Fuquan was appointed by Kangxi as the Minister of Management of the Kubu Department - he became a minister at the age of fifteen or sixteen. He was really young and promising!
The first-class guard Suo'etu became the commander of Kubu, the nominal second-in-command in Kubu, but the actual first-in-command.
Guanyin Bao, the former first-class guard of Prince Yu's palace, was transferred to the guard's office, appointed as a second-class guard, and served as assistant chief Kubu, who was regarded as Suo'etu's deputy.
Wang Zhongxiao, the Lanling bodyguard, was appointed as the foreman of Kubu, ranking under Guanyin Bao, and was the actual third-in-command at Kubu.
Kubu's site was selected on Yingtai Island in the Taiye Pond of Xiyuan. The funds were allocated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the equipment used was provided by the Military Preparation Institute of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In addition, the Ministry of Internal Affairs also transferred several pen tips and handyman Baitang'a to work at Kubu's office.
Now they are waiting for Fuquan, Suo'etu, Guanyinbao, and Wang Zhongxiao to select at least ninety Kubu worship Tang'a from the bannermen and Baoyi youths who should be selected to worship Tang'a this year. This Kubu of the Ministry of Internal Affairs It can be opened anywhere.
By that time, Kang Mazi, the number one rebel in the Kangxi reign of the Qing Dynasty, had his own rebel force!
Kang Mazi’s rebellion is really flourishing!
In addition to the new errand, Wang Zhongxiao also has a new mother - she is still a candidate, but sooner or later this new mother will become the new mother, because when Wang Zhongxiao left the palace yesterday, this candidate new mother gave Wang Daxiao a child full of motherly love. Sixty banknotes from the old Fan family.
After taking so much "maternal love" from Zhang Xiaoyu, Wang Zhongxiao has to be treated as a "filial son"... so Wang Fuchen, the father, must be handed over to others! If the old man is not happy, then Wang Zhongxiao, a filial son, will have to get this good thing done even if he is tied up.
However, the day of "making a father" has not come yet. Zhang Xiaoyu is twenty-four years old this year and will be released next year.
Therefore, Wang Zhongxiao still has some time to arrange marriage for his biological father... There is no other filial son who can arrange an arranged marriage for his father.
Now Wang Zhongxiao has received 6,000 taels of silver notes full of motherly love, plus the remaining 1,110 taels of silver notes from the old Fan family, the official capital on hand has increased to a full 7,110 taels!
With such a big capital, Wang Zhongxiao was even more confident to "end up" in the Qing Dynasty. Now walking on the street, his whole body exudes "enduring"!
Master Yu Deshui is now following Wang Zhongxiao closely. He has not been idle these days. He has been wandering around the outer city of Beijing, looking for suitable antique calligraphy, painting, swords and horses for Wang Zhongxiao.
These things are everywhere in Beijing, and they are hard to find. It's said that it's easy to find. If you go around Dashilan and Mashi Street twice, you can find a lot of them in safekeeping, but it's hard to say whether it's true or not. Wang Zhongxiao also knew the treasures of swords and BMWs, but this calligraphy and painting antique... he didn't know.
Fortunately, the master said that he knows things... not only knows things, but also knows people!
I'm still bragging to Wang Zhongxiao right now!
"Second Young Master, I am not bragging to you. Most of the people who make calligraphy, painting and antiques in the outer city of Beijing are my family's family friends!"
"Isn't your family a member of the Jinyi Guardi Cavalry?" Wang Zhongxiao asked.
Yu Deshui nodded: "Yes, my family has been doing this for generations... so appraising calligraphy, painting, and antiques is also my family's specialty. My father and grandfather are all familiar with the merchants who deal in antique calligraphy and painting in Beijing. Very much."
Wang Zhongxiao asked in confusion: "Shouldn't the family education of Jin Yiwei Tiqi be tortured to extract confessions? Why do you need to appraise calligraphy, painting, and artifacts?"
Yu Deshui smiled: "Hey, why are you tortured to extract confessions? Isn't it just for... so that you can finally raid the homes of those traitors and traitors? There are good things in the homes of traitors and traitors. Why don't we do this? To know the goods, wouldn’t it mean that good things are thrown away as rags and fakes are sent to the palace? Wouldn’t this be a disservice to the country and the people?”
"Oh, that's it!" Wang Zhong said with filial piety: Misleading the country and misunderstanding... It turns out that the country of Ming Dynasty was ransacked by those of you who didn't take good care of it. You took all the good things back to your own home and sent all the rags. Jin Yiwei was delayed. It seems that you, Master Yu, are really talented. I must take you with me when I raid Ao Bai's house! I don’t know if I can get ten million taels of silver from Obai’s house?
"Second Young Master, we're here."
Wang Zhongxiao was thinking about Ao Bai's house when Master Yu suddenly said "We're here", which startled him. He thought Ao Bai's house had arrived, so he quickly looked up and found that he was still on the street outside Zhengyangmen.
"Where are you?" Wang Zhongxiao looked around, "This isn't Dashilan either!"
"This is Zhushikou."
"Zhushikou?" Wang Zhongxiao was stunned, "What are you doing here at Zhushikou? Aren't we going to Dashilan?"
Master Yu pointed to a three-story shop in front of him with a "Yangsan Teahouse" banner outside the door and said: "Second Young Master, we are not going to Dashilan today. We are going to come here today to meet the owner of Yangsan Teahouse." Mr. Yang is discussing business."
"Master Yang?" Wang Zhongxiao asked, "Who is he?"
Master Yu smiled and said: "He is a well-known figure in the outer city of Beijing. His ancestors, like my ancestors, are from the Jinyiwei family of the previous dynasty. The two families can be considered family friends...but his family's The business is bigger than mine, and his father is more capable than mine, so I can still leave him some things and connections."
Wang Zhongxiao asked again: "His family is also a Tiqi from Fusi, Beizhen?"
"No," Master Yu said with a wry smile, "Tiqi is not a big official... His family has thousands of hereditary Jinyiwei families, and they have been in charge of Nzi's Mansion for several generations!"
"What? N's Mansion?" Wang Zhongxiao was stunned, "In charge of the wet nurse? This is a lot of money! Brother Yin's mother is the emperor's wet nurse."
"Yes, that's right, N's Mansion still exists, but it's under the control of the Ministry of Internal Affairs." Master Yu paused, and then said, "The official name of N's Mansion in the past was the Ceremony Room, and it was under the Imperial Guard. In addition to choosing a wet nurse, you also have to choose a consort. This is the first-class shortage in the Jinyiwei, and it is much better than the Beizhen Fusi. The Beizhen Fusi has offended others, and he will be included in it if he is not careful. The head of N's house only wants to reap benefits and is unlikely to cause trouble. Therefore, the Yang family has controlled N's house for many generations, and they have made a lot of money. It's a pity..."
"In addition to opening a teahouse, does Yang San have any other business now?" When Wang Zhongxiao and Master Yu were talking, they had already arrived in front of the "Yang San Teahouse". This is a large teahouse with four bays and three floors. It obviously costs a lot of money to open in a prime location like Zhushikou. Can you make money just by making a few bowls of tea?
Master Yu said with a smile: "This Yang San is a capable man. He is generous with his wealth and makes friends with powerful people. He even set up a Luo Jiao Zhaitang called Sanlang Xianghui. There are many people among the canal canal workers and the coolies who transport grain to and from Beijing and Tongzhou. Young disciple..."
"What? Sanlang Xianghui?" Wang Zhongxiao was shocked when he heard the name, "Master Yu, what is the name of Yang San?"
"Yang San's name?" Master Yu said, "He walks the world with his words, and his words rise and rise!"
"Yang Qilong?" Wang Zhongxiao said heartily: Well, we met another rebel! Am I destined to rebel? How come you can meet rebels everywhere? I met Wang Fuchen and Wu Sangui in Yunnan, I went to Beijing and met Kang Mazi, the first rebel of the Kangxi Dynasty, and I met Yang Qilong when I went to the outer city! Is it time to meet Chen Jinnan next?
When he was thinking of this, a pleasant voice suddenly sounded in Yang San Teahouse: "Chen, in broad daylight, you led so many people armed with weapons and broke into private houses. What on earth do you want to do?"
