Chapter Ninety-Six: Dog Luck is Monstrous
", there is something to ask you for my brother."
The eldest grandson Chong was a little anxious, and he actually wore a Hu suit in the spring, with a bear skin placket wrapped around the waist and a huge Dongzhu on his head. From a distance, it looks a bit like a doll with a small gourd on its head.
"What's the matter with my brother?"
Recently, the income of the Donghu Tribute Hall has been good, and some small tribes that have come out of nowhere have really sent people over, saying that they want to go to Chang'an to pay tribute, and ask the eldest cousin if there is such an honor.
Speaking of this tribute, it is not that anyone who wants to pay tribute can pay tribute. For example, Xi people, you can say that this is Xianbei, then you have the qualification of tribute. For example, Huyan Ministry, you can say that this is the Xiongnu, and you can also mix tributary qualifications. For example, Khitan, you can claim to be a descendant of Donghu and other Wuhuan species, or you can put on a name.
In short, looking for ancestors in the history books of the Central Plains can attract the attention of His Majesty the Heavenly Khan.
To put it simply, brush up on popularity. To put it more bluntly, this world is especially face-oriented from beginning to end.
Lao Zhang Xin said that the eldest cousin is very cool now, whether the Khitan is left in Hebei or the six divisions that are split, they are very amiable to the eldest grandson Chong, no way, people are not ordinary people, and his father is the eldest grandson Wuji.
Looking at the eldest grandson Chong's expression, it seemed that there was something unspeakable, and Lao Zhang also felt strange, what is wrong with the eldest cousin?
"Well, it's not a good job. In Chang'an, he also entrusted the way of Gao Feng, who is now in charge of the Sifang Pavilion, which is such a good city. ”
Speaking of this Gao Feng, he is not an ordinary person. Born in the Bohai Gao family, Zhang De is actually not very familiar with the roots of the family. However, the Bohai Gao clan established the Northern Qi Dynasty, and then there was a vote of neurosis. There is one of them, and all the female relatives who can are all ****.
Not to mention the Germanic orthopedic doctor. Even if Hua Tuo is alive, he is helpless.
"Gao Jifu has always been kind to the Duke of Qi, if it is a little favor, it will be returned." Zhang De said to Changsun Chong with a smile.
"This guy has a few people who are here for his brother, so he didn't say much. Only this bastard, I don't know where I heard the news, saying that the trend of raising dolphins in Hebei is prevalent, and the households have benefited greatly. He had a brother, so he took him. To raise dolphins in Hebei. The eldest grandson scolded and scolded, "Now the dolphin species in Hebei is also known in Henan, and there are also a few families in Hedong who have come over, which is really annoying." ”
After that, the eldest grandson Chong said to Zhang De: ", you have been wronged again, and you have helped your brother repay this favor, and this is the case." There will be a great reward for being a brother. ”
"It's just a dolphin, brother doesn't need to mind."
Zhang De shook his head and said with a smile, "Bohai Gao Clan." It is a high-ranking family, how can it be reduced to competing with the people for profit? The meat of the dolphin is not allowed to enter the Zhumen. How can you still have such strength? If you get the plague, you will lose all your money. Again. The home of cultivation and reading is still the best acre. It's a long-term foundation. ”
"Who says it isn't!"
The eldest grandson took a sip of the tea that had just been served on the table, and he stuck out his tongue when it was hot, "If you don't see that he has an important mouth, who will look down on him." Don't say what the Bohai Gao clan is, it is the five gates and seven hopes, what is it?! ”
Blowing a breath, the eldest cousin drank tea, and said depressedly, "Alas, these days, dealing with those barbarians all day long, it is really fishy. When I was in Chang'an, I only felt happy to eat cattle and sheep, but now I am like a sin. A few days ago, I brought some bacon and a piece of jerky from Cao Zhi here, and the barbarian actually exchanged ten cows for it. Bah! ”
Lao Zhang watched how the eldest grandson Chong changed from a personable man to a degenerate and corrupt official, and then from an official to a slightly idealistic young man......
Alas, before the outlook on life, world outlook and values are established, it is better not to go too deep into the society. It's easy to take revenge on society, and looking at the appearance of the eldest cousin, the previous etiquette and virtue must have been thrown into the toilet. Now the eldest cousin seems to be the wife who was promoted and made a fortune, of course, the wife can't see hope for the time being, and the promotion is appropriate.
Now the second generation of powerful people who can be delegated to the grassroots level and can still work hard is really rare.
You know, this is the eldest grandson Chong, who should have silently pretended to be forced in Qujiang Pond, chanted poems in Pingkangfang, and led thousands of girls to scream countless young women on Suzaku Street.
Now...... It's not easy!
Lao Zhang was also very emotional, what did such an official and a skilled worker do in the position of the tributary hall to achieve this virtue.
However, Lao Zhang was even more emotional, Gao Jifu is a special six-grade Beijing official, and you are also a noble envoy like a general housekeeper, so you opened the back door for yourself, and actually helped your brother get a place for a professional pig farmer!
Fifteen hundred years later, when diplomats see your performance, won't they line up to commit suicide to thank the world?
Well, anyway, it is a professional pig breeding household, and besides, after Jia Junpeng starts spring, the main business will also be transferred. The planting of alfalfa and grass is also on the right track, and there are now 1,800 skilled farm workers, and if you share it, the pressure is not very great.
Moreover, Li Simo was also very awesome, and wrote a letter to His Majesty the Heavenly Khan, boasting about how many cattle and sheep he had, and how he was not afraid of winter, and then he wanted to pay tribute to two or three hundred thousand cattle and sheep, showing a little affection......
After the snowstorm in the whole north, on Li Dong's desk, the old mad dog showed a loyal little note, which was the only thing that made him feel warm.
Think that's the end of it? Pattern!
The old mad dog said to Li Dong after the beginning of spring: There are still six or seven thousand war horses here, Your Majesty, you can accept it.
War horses! Six or seven thousand! Laugh at it!
When Li Dong was happy, he was also stunned on the spot. The heart said what the hell is this river loop? How can a snowstorm still have such benefits? I'm pleased, but I'm also curious.
Lao Zhang was annoyed by the old mad dog, and even more annoyed by Li Dong's curiosity, and when he thought of it, he was congested and depressed.
But none of this matters, as long as Li Dong doesn't come to make trouble, everything is easy to say. Digging into the corners of the Tang Dynasty imperialism, if you do more of this kind of thing, you will not have to worry about more debts, and you will not be afraid of lice if you have more lice.
"The elder brother is now a practical dispatch, and he is even more valued by His Majesty, the Donghu tribes and states, the elder brother is trying to educate, and the burden is heavy, and the younger brother admires it incomparably......"
The eldest grandson Chong's expression was a little relieved, but he suddenly coughed lightly and said to Zhang De: "Virtuous brother, and retreat left and right first." ”
Lao Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then let the maidservants and servants disperse.
When the living room was empty, the eldest grandson Boshu suddenly took off the bear skin placket mysteriously......
Zhang De was startled, but fortunately, Changsun Chong did not continue to take it off, but took out a green sack from the bearskin placket.
"Brother Xian, guess what this is?"
The eldest grandson Chong handed over the bag, and as soon as Zhang De took it, he suddenly felt the weight of his hand, estimated the density, and said in a daze: "Gold!" ”
“……”
My cousin looked confused, can you guess this?!
The slightly depressed eldest grandson Chong opened the bag, and it was actually a complete piece of natural gold, not to mention...... Fifteen pounds have.
About seven inches long, this piece of gold has no edges and corners, and the edges are rounded. It's just that the surface is pitted, and you can still see black sand.
"Virtuous brother, for my brother I met a barbarian, the barbarian language is similar to the murowei, and it is also like the black water man, but there is no writing, and he is extremely ignorant." After a pause, Changsun Chong clenched his fists excitedly, "Ignorant barbarian, okay!" ”
Roar or not! Roar!
It's only been a few days since I was in the hall, and I actually have such benefits?! Damn, I'm going to be an official too!
Dog's head gold, fifteen catties of dog's head gold, actually ...... Running around with a sack wrapped in a bearskin coat?
"Brother, this gold ......"
"It's for Brother Xian." The eldest cousin is called calm, that is called proud, I saw my cousin's eyebrows fluttering, "That group of barbarians, claiming to have lived in the northeast of Beimurwei for a long time, west of the ghost country, is called 'driving Du Mei'." There are several large Murowei tribes, which they call Jube. But what does that have to do with me? Hahaha......"
Suddenly, the eldest grandson looked up to the sky and laughed, "This is the driving country of Mei, rich in gold, if you can get up and down your hands, for your brother, this is everything!" ”
That's, gold,!
"Brother, this piece of gold, to say the least, is fifteen catties, and the younger brother deserves it."
"Hey, it's just a piece of gold, will you be stingy for your brother?"
"The elder brother has a broad mind, and the younger brother admires it."
"Hey, I'm not a big brother, a virtuous brother." Changsun Chong put the bear skin placket on again, and then smiled, "A piece of gold, of course I won't be stingy for my brother." But if it's 100 yuan, 10,000 yuan, 10,000 yuan, it's very, very stingy for a brother. Hahahahaha......ha
Crazy, this thing must be crazy.
According to the news that Changsun Chong said, Zhang De judged that this drive to the country should be across the sea from the Kamchatka Peninsula 1,500 years later.
There, indeed, is a high producer of gold, this Nima...... This can be met by the eldest grandson. He has only been in the Donghu Tribute Pavilion for a few days, and the people from the Sifang Pavilion haven't come down to inspect yet, so he's fishing so much?
No wonder although this product has been weathered and has a grudge, it has not picked on it, and sure enough, gold is attractive.
"Brother's errand is really envious."
"Hey, how can you be a brother alone?" Eldest Sun Chong's face was serious, and he suddenly couldn't help laughing heartily, "Hahahahaha...... settled Gao Jifu's house for his brother and returned the favor, so he naturally wanted to develop together with his virtuous brother. How can this gold that drives the country of sleepiness be cheaper for others? ”
Lao Zhang couldn't help but be moved, and said that his cousin not only sent his sister, but also sent money, such a good man is really rare. Fifteen hundred years later, it must be the neighbor of the old king next door.
"The elder treats the younger brother like this......"
"I want to eat alone for my brother, but Hebei doesn't have the help of a virtuous brother, how can I hide it from those high-ranking families in Hebei. If you let the people of Du Mei go to Chang'an and go all the way, I am afraid that everyone will know about the high-yield gold, wouldn't it be a good thing to do good things with others for a brother? So, the lesser of two evils......"
Damn, cooperating with Lao Tzu is the lighter of the two evils? Exercise! Lao Tzu's touching is back! (To be continued.) )
