He immediately stood up and said in a deep voice, "Wang Tong." d-m”

Wang Tong was standing outside the door, and when he heard this, he pushed open the door: "My lord." ”

Dong Ce wrote a note and handed it to Wang Tong: "You immediately take someone back to Panshi Fort and find Su Dacheng to get five thousand taels of silver." ”

Wang Tong was shocked in his heart, knowing that something big must have happened, otherwise Dong Ce would never have done this. He suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavy, after all, it was five thousand taels of silver, and in this life, he really never thought that he would handle so much money one day.

He took the note and nodded heavily: "Subordinates obey orders." ”

Dong Ce smiled: "Be careful, it's nothing." ”

Wang Tong nodded yes and went downstairs.

This time, there were fourteen people who came out with Zhongzi except Dong Zhongkang and Dong Zhongyong, as well as one Dong Yongzhen, and Wang Tong took six people. After instructing the others to keep the adults safe, he went to the shopkeeper and fetched the horse from the stable, and asked the man to take some bread that was convenient for eating on the road and took with him. Out of the Yuelai Inn, all the way out of Yanghe City.

When they arrived at a secluded place outside the city, they smeared marmot oil on their faces and wrapped them in thick cloth towels to protect them from the cold wind and sand.

This time instead of butter and mutton fat, they applied marmot oil. In winter, the north is bitterly cold, and the cold wind is like a knife, especially when driving at high speed, the cold wind is even more similar to a bone-scraping steel knife, and it won't take long to freeze the face with chapped wounds and bloody wounds. That's why it's important to apply grease to protect against the cold, and the best one is marmot oil. Marmot oil does not dry easily, lasts for a long time, and is much better than butter and sheep fat lard.

Of course, the price is expensive, but after Dong Ce entered Yanghe City, he immediately sent someone to buy a lot. For those who often have to go out in winter, this can be said to be a must-have.

The so-called marmot is actually a marmot.

This rodent squirrel, which is the size of a big cat and a puppy, can weigh nine pounds in size, and the big one can reach twelve or thirteen pounds, nearly two feet long. Marmots can eat ten catties of vegetables and fruits a day, and this ability to eat is naturally fat. The meat is extremely delicious, the fat is also very rich, and the marmot skin is also a good fur, which can be said to be a treasure all over the body.

But this thing is not easy to catch, the tail is very interesting, the hands and feet are short and fat, and there is a pair of long front teeth in front of the mouth, which looks stupid and stupid, and looks obese, but it is actually very alert. When they eat, they not only keep an eye on their surroundings, but also have a special sentry officer.

However, the cunning fox is no match for a good hunter, and as the name suggests, the marmot is good at burrowing in the ground, and usually the burrow has more than two entrances for safety. Most of them are active during the day, like to live in groups, good at digging soil, digging tunnels up to several meters deep, and there are grassy living rooms inside, which is very comfortable. They do not store food, but instead store fat in the summer so that they can hibernate in their burrows in the winter. The entrance of the marmot is large, and there are traces of the road that marmots often walk outside.

Experienced hunters can easily separate the marmots' burrows, find one entrance, and then find another not far away, and then light a firewood and sprinkle it with water, press the fire, and smoke it. Either it will be smoked to death, or it will be smoked dizzily and knocked to death with a stick.

Marmots are rare in the mountainous region, but there are many in the Mongolian steppe. Marmot oil and marmot skins are basically shipped from Outer Mongolia, which is difficult to buy and expensive.

Ready for protection, the group rode away.

……

And it was at the same moment that they left the city.

Yanghe City Lantern Street.

The two of them turned out of an alley and walked leisurely in the direction of the bamboo shoots and chicken porridge shop at the corner of the street.

Two people, one of them is a young man in his twenties, at first glance he is in his twenties, but if you look closely, you will find that this person is old, and his actual age is not sixteen or seventeen years old. He was quite handsome, wearing a dark color straight embellishing, a snow-white fox fur cloak on the outside, soap boots on his feet, and a hard-tired flat-topped six-in-one hat on his head, which was a fine black and red satin, bordered by stone blue brocade.

He also had a bronze sword hanging from his waist, and he seemed to be a well-known scholar. His demeanor is very elegant, revealing a sense of nobility, obviously not a nouveau riche, and his tutor must be excellent.

is tall and handsome, and this dress looks rich and compelling, which immediately attracts the attention of those women who pass by on the street. This young man is also a chic and down-to-earth character, and when he sees someone looking at him, he looks over, and his face is also showing a provocative smile, which makes those women blush for a while.

It's just that he seems to have lost some weight, and his steps are too vain—this is the result of his addiction to women, and the absurdity of the bed.

Compared with this rich and compelling young man, the one beside him was too bleak. He was about forty years old, of medium stature, mediocre in appearance, and a slightly fat face seemed to have a smile on it all the time.

He was dressed in a blue satin cotton suit, and he looked like such a wealthy businessman.

He glanced around and said with a smile: "In the past few days, the son has hugged left and right, and the beauties in his arms have also changed, but he has enjoyed all the blessings in the world!" ”

That Hou Gongzi patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Zhang, thanks to you, otherwise how could this Gongzi know that there is such a wonderful thing in this bitter cold northern land?" ”

He is much younger than the shopkeeper, but he patted him on the shoulder like this, which shows that the relationship between the two is very close, and secondly, it can be concluded that his identity must be above this shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "If it weren't for Lord Hou's promotion and attention, how could the little one be here now?" Childe rarely comes to the Northland once, and the little one is a good student to entertain. ”

The Hou Gongzi laughed when he heard this, and suddenly walked to the middle of the road, and shouted: "This son's joy for a few days will not reduce the prince!" ”

He suddenly shouted loudly, and immediately startled everyone around him, and they all looked at him like a madman.

The shopkeeper shook his head, but he knew that his son had a problem: he was infatuated and good at laughing. To say that it sounds good, it is an amazing word - this is not a good statement, isn't the criminal Yuan Chonghuan a good and amazing word? Talking nonsense about five years of peace in Liaoning, but as a result, five years have passed, and Liaoxi has been ruined in a mess -- to put it mildly, it is debauchery, and from time to time love to go crazy.

It's just that at this time, you must follow him.

He hurriedly smiled and said, "Childe, what do you mean?" ”

This prince shouted loudly: "The princes and nobles, even if they have hundreds of concubines, when they sleep at night, all the concubines are waiting for luck, and there is only one person who is the emperor." This son entered the lantern street of Yanghe City, hundreds of beauties, and they looked at me like Pan An. This son commands and chooses at will, and he will be called by someone who is willing to serve me. In the past five days, the princess has thirty-six royal daughters, all of whom are women I don't know in the past. Lord Prince, how can you pass me! ”

After that, he laughed proudly.

The surrounding women, most of whom were dusty women here, were silent when they heard the words, and left quickly.

The shopkeeper had no choice but to smile bitterly: "The prince is mighty, and the prince is not as good." ”

But I was a little unimpressed in my heart, but I scolded these women for these words. But it's just that I don't think it's enough, a group of crooked prostitutes, what is it? If you scold, you will scold.

The boy was complimented by him, and he was even more proud, swaying like a big duck, laughing as he walked.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the people's customs were open, and people often talked about the old ministers of the court, and these high-ranking officials have become a topic that people often talk about every day, and there is no fear in the words at all. Of course, this 'people' only refers to those who have merit and fame, are protected, and no one dares to offend them. They even dare to scold the emperor, what is it to talk about a pavilion elder?

Where do ordinary people have this idle mind? Where is the guts? I'm afraid that if I say a word, I will be detained to the government, and I will be in a dilemma of life and death.

Not to mention talking about these officials, there are a lot of scoldings, such as the 'Night Dream God Man Award' incident that caused a lot of noise during the Wanli period.

After Zhang Juzheng's death, he was replaced by Zhang Siwei, in March of the third year of Wanli, when the first assistant Zhang Juzheng asked for additional cabinet ministers, Zhang Siwei was recommended to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites and a scholar of the East Pavilion University, and entered the cabinet to participate in the maintenance of the machine. In other words, this gentleman was promoted by Zhang Juzheng, why did Zhang Juzheng promote him? That's for a reason, when Zhang Juzheng was in power, he was an out-and-out response bug, as long as Zhang Juzheng took the idea. He must have agreed with 10,000. It was a whip for Zhang Juzheng, and the Jiangnan scholars, who were not lightly tossed by the Jiangnan landlords and wealthy merchant class, were very unaccustomed to him and ridiculed him from time to time.

In the tenth year of Wanli, when the time came, Zhang Juzheng died, and Zhang Siwei was the first assistant, and the tired officials were added to at least the division, the official department Shangshu, and the scholar of the Zhongji Temple. The steaming Zhang Ge Lao immediately jumped up and down, and immediately after taking office, he published a children's book.

There is a passage in the book that talks about the beginning of his family's ancestors.

Zhang Han, the secretary of the Wanli Nian, has a book in "Dream of the Pine Window": "The ancestral family is in the middle of the road...... Returning overnight, suddenly someone called from behind, the ancestor looked back and responded, gave hot things, and suddenly disappeared. When you burn a lamp or candle at home, it is a white gold ingot...... Since then, the family business has been great, and the last four ancestors have inherited the business, each rich in tens of thousands of gold. The husband gave the gold at dusk, and it was very strange, but since my ancestors, this saying has been passed down from generation to generation, how can God give it to open my ancestral family business! "To the effect, how did my family get rich? It was a white gold ingot given to my family by a man of God, which was the first pot of gold in my family, and my family has been rich since then!
