Chapter 60: Yang Fuhou
This is a real fief, which means that these fiefs are managed by the Hou Mansion himself.
It's not like it's going to be sealed in the future...... Nominally, you will be given as many households, but you can only take how much money you can take from the fief each year.
Moreover, this money is still converted to you by the government.
Therefore, in such an era, it can actually be called a Hou State.
The fief of Yang Fuhou is almost equivalent to an independent kingdom!
Therefore, it is necessary to govern the officials separately.
Of course, until now, the imperial court has continued to weaken the power of the vassal princes.
The power of the princes to govern the people has been greatly weakened, and much of the power has been deprived to local officials.
However, no matter what, the Hou Mansion still has a lot of power.
Especially Yang Fuhou, the uncle of the son of heaven and a relative.
Soon after the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, he was in a hurry to give his uncle the title of marquis, although this was a feudal relative, thinking that the Son of Heaven was a winged security country and a system of heavy social discipline.
But this is also enough to show that today, Yang Fuhou attaches great importance to it!
In the face of such a strong relative, what magistrate dares not to be suspicious?
Therefore, when Tao Xiaowu arrived at this Yangfu Marquis fiefdom, he saw a completely different scene.
At this time, it is winter, and the fields are barren, but many people are building water conservancy facilities such as canals.
It's a sight you don't see anywhere else!
Because, in other places, there are small peasant families, and a family of five or six people, dozens of acres of land is very remarkable.
Large-scale water conservancy construction cannot be organized at all.
Usually, there are only government organizations!
However, now that the government is lax and overcrowded, it is rare to organize such large-scale construction.
However, it is different in this princely state. The population of 2,000 households and hundreds of thousands of acres of land are all privately owned by Yang Fuhou.
Naturally, he was able to mobilize manpower and had sufficient financial resources to carry out large-scale water power construction and even farm-based production and operation.
Of course, this should also be a person under Yang Fuhou, who is capable and good at management.
Tao Xiaowu's heart moved, and he deliberately praised a few words.
Sure enough, I saw a smile on Chen Zhi's face......
As the family order of the Hou Mansion, it is equivalent to the prime minister of the Hou State, which is of course his credit!
Tao Xiaowu pretended not to know and praised two sentences.
Sure enough, unintentionally patting the horse is the most refreshing. That Chen Zhi looked at Tao Xiaowu, and he was much kinder.
Tao Xiaowu thought that the nobles of such an era were really not all waste.
Due to the monopoly of knowledge, among the aristocracy, there are all kinds of talents who are good at business, business and so on!
Tao Xiaowu's praise spared Chen Zhi's itch, and he thought he had met a bosom friend at the moment, and talked about his various plans.
It can be seen that this talent cultivated by Chen Zhi's big family seems to be the first time to really go out for training.
The whole person still has a bookish atmosphere and a bit of goodness.
In this kind of place, he has a lot of talk to share with others, but after all, it is a rural place, and no one can understand his planning and arrangement.
Of course, no one is qualified to talk about this!
And Tao Xiaowu is obviously a good listener, nodding his head from time to time, and occasionally saying a few words in key places, but he just happened to say the pride of Chen Zhi's planning and arrangement.
This immediately made Chen Zhi feel like he hated to be a bosom friend who hated to see each other late, and he only felt that the more he chatted with Tao Xiaowu, the more speculative he became.
And Tao Xiaowu quietly made a few suggestions to Chen Zhi, but also helped Chen Zhi pick up the missing and fill in the gaps, making Chen Zhi sigh, why is Tao Xiaowu a wizard sacrificial wine?
Otherwise, you can be your own deputy and help yourself!
And Tao Xiaowu was also silently observing this Hou Mansion family order along the way, and he realized more and more that this person had an extraordinary background.
The Marquis of Yangfu is the newly sealed marquis, and the marquis mansion is still under construction, and the area and scale are very large.
In this princely state, while building the Hou Mansion, it is also organizing the construction of water conservancy.
However, everywhere is well organized, and there is no chaos, and it is obvious that it is all the credit of this Chen Zhi.
This man is very talented!
As far as Tao Xiaowu knows, Chen Zhi's family order is not from the county.
"It should be an elite child cultivated by a big family, in order to befriend the Yang Fuhou, so he was sent to make a family order!"
Tao Xiaowu guessed in his heart.
Soon, Tao Xiaowu met the Yangfu Marquis Liang Xiu.
This man was not originally a nobleman, but a merchant......
Today's new son of heaven is the Marquis of Xieyun County, who was originally just a marquis who was not taken seriously.
Although it is a clan, it is not even a vassal king, just a marquis.
In the world, there are not a thousand such clan princes, but five or six hundred!
Some of these marquis are still very sad and cannot maintain their dignity.
Therefore, marrying a rich businessman is the most normal thing!
This Liang Xiu was originally a businessman, but now he has soared into the sky and become a county marquis, which has to give birth to a feeling that he will make the hearts of parents in the world not reborn as men and women.
But think about it, this Liang Xiu is still a big businessman with a fortune of tens of millions, which is already very good.
Originally, in the world, during the Eastern Han Dynasty, He Jin, the general who almost single-handedly played the world of the Han family, was still a butcher!
However, Tao Xiaowu wanted to come, so He Jin could not be a real butcher.
It is estimated that he should also be a big businessman, selling livestock, meat, etc. Derogatorily called a butcher......
Otherwise, a real butcher's daughter, let alone become a queen, even if she enters the palace, it is impossible!
This Yang Fu Hou Liang Xiu looks quite mediocre, like a rich man with dough.
It is no wonder that although this Yang Fuhou was only a businessman before. But the businessmen who can marry the Hou Mansion are also rich and wealthy.
And this Yang Fuhou is obviously like this, his personality doesn't seem to be too strong, and he seems quite kind.
Of course, this is also related to Tao Xiaowu being the master of today's Wuli!
The Wuli lineage, not only in Hengyin County, but even within hundreds of miles nearby, is a wizard family that has been prominent for generations.
Liang Xiu, the rich marquis of Yang, is also a person from Yujun, not far from that Hengyin, so he has naturally heard of Wuli's reputation.
Moreover, he was born as a businessman, and he was not like those Confucian families, who thought too highly of themselves and did not take wizards in their eyes.
At this time, Tao Xiaowu was more and more glad that he was accepted as a disciple by Wu Cheng.
If it weren't for the reputation of the Wuli era, then where would Yang Fuhou have heard of his Tao Xiaowu name?
Where will Tao Xiaowu be asked to be the family order of the Hou Mansion?
It's a pity that I don't know how my master is doing now?
The ghost uncle of Hengting has bad intentions, but after my master died, he entered the city of the lower city, so he should not fall into the hands of the ghost uncle of Hengting.
Maybe......
I can use the power of the Hou Mansion to rescue Master!
He thought to himself.
