Chapter 7: I want ten thousand taels

Views:

Zhou Zheng was not ready to enter the official position immediately, and he had to practice at least reading and writing.

Also, try to stay away from the castrated party, otherwise Chongzhen will thunder and it will be easy to chop him.

At the Zhong family, Zhong Fenteng hurried in, watching Zhong Qinyong who was drinking tea in the pavilion, and said with joy: "Father, you are still smart, now the Zhou family is over!"

Zhong Qinyong put down his tea cup, a sturdy man like a warrior, his actions were gentle and polite, and said: "What's the wind outside?"

Zhong Fenteng was so excited that he said: "The outside is saying that Zhou Qingli is a villain on both ends of a snake and a rat, who is a villain who seeks a reputation. Yesterday he pretended to be a minister. Today, his son was sponsored by the castration party. Despicable and shameless, many supervisors are preparing to write memorials to impeach him! Dad, you are sure to win!"

Zhong Qinyong's eyes were triumphant, and he said coldly: "Keep on staring at me. If Zhou Qingli still doesn't know what is good or bad, I have the means to deal with him!"

Zhong Fenteng immediately continued: "Father, then deal with him and fix the Zhou family to death. See if they dare to offend our Zhong family!"

Zhong Qinyong waved his hand and said indifferently: "The selection is going to be done soon. You can't have too many extra-junctions. When I take up the engineering department, I will have to deal with Zhou Qingli!

Zhong Fenteng gritted his teeth bitterly, and said: "Okay, then I will bear with him for a few days, and then see how Zhou Zhengyun's beast died!"

In the evening, Zhou Qingli, who was full of alcohol, returned to the house. Before he could sit down, Zhou Fang hurried over and said, "Father, you heard that, the second brother was recommended by Zhou Tianguan as being involved!"

Zhou Qingli drank a sip of strong tea, calmed down, looked at the anxious elder son, and said lightly: "I went to the staff to ask, there is no Zhengyun's name."

Zhou Fang opened his mouth and said, suddenly awakened, and said, "Father, you mean... This is a deliberate wind noise that was used to slander Daddy."

Zhou Qingli said'um', and said, "You're not stupid. Don't be so impatient when something happens, think about it, and call Zhengyun."

Zhou Fang fell to the ground with a rock in his heart, and went to Zhou Zheng when he answered.

After a while, Zhou Fang called out Zhou Zheng. The brothers walked side by side. Zhou Fang said: "Father has just drunk. Please keep your words in a while. I found a famous doctor from outside Beijing. I will enter Beijing in a few days. Let him show you a good look."

Zhou Zheng responded casually, and suddenly turned his head to look at Zhou Fang seriously.

Zhou Fang was taken aback by him and said, "What's the matter?"

Zhou Zheng thought about it seriously, and said, "I remember you are a Jinshi?"

Zhou Fang was overjoyed and said, "Do you remember?"

Liu Liuzhe, who was behind them, quickly answered, "Young Master, Young Master II has already remembered something, and his condition may have improved."

Zhou Fang looked at Zhou Zheng and exclaimed: "That's really great. Father must be very happy to know."

Zhou Zheng didn't bother to pay attention to the mess of them, and asked, "What's the gap?"

Zhou Fangdao: "In recent years, the court has not been peaceful. My father was afraid that I would be involved and did not allow me to be an official. He is currently a teaching assistant in the Imperial College."

Imperial College

Zhou Zheng nodded, it was also a place full of oil and water. Those who did not have the qualifications for the imperial examination or failed the examinations often spent money to buy into the Imperial College, and use this to get an official position.

Seeing that Zhou Zheng seemed to just ask casually, Zhou Fang told Zhou Zheng about the outside affairs.

Zhou Zheng said, "Oh", "Zhong's method, no wonder..."

Now that everything makes sense, how could Zhou Yingqiu, a high-ranking official, noticed such a small person like them.

Zhou Fang looked at this crazy second brother with an inexplicable expression. I don't know why, this crazy second brother always gives him a strange feeling, as if he has no emotions, and is surprisingly plain about everything, as if he is aloof

The two brothers came to the inner hall as they said, Zhou Qingli's pale green face was burgundy. Seeing Zhou Zheng came, he said, "Do you know what happened?"

Zhou Zheng reacted calmly and said, "Well, I see."

Zhou Qingli looked at him and said, "What are your thoughts?"

Zhou Zheng thought for a moment, and said, "How did you deal with it?"

Zhou Qingli said, "I have been to the staff department, and the list of filling vacancies will come out tomorrow. The rumors are self-defeating."

Zhou Zheng said, "Oh," "It's a good way."

Looking at Zhou Zheng, Zhou Qingli also felt what Zhou Fang had just felt. This crazy second son not only forgot everything about everyone, but he seemed to have some emotional problems, and he was dazed.

Zhou Qingli was silent for a while, and then said, "Do you have anything to say?"

Zhou Zheng thought for a while, and said solemnly, "Or, resign."

As soon as this sentence came out, Zhou Fang and Liu Liuzhe on the side were taken aback and looked surprised.

Zhou Qingli was also taken aback, and said: "Why resign, because my father will soon be able to take up the engineering department, it's all about it."

Zhou Zheng has already figured out his words and said: "There is nothing you can do in this position. It will not only offend the Qingliu but also the eunuch. It is very dangerous. The gentleman will not stand under the dangerous wall."

Zhou Qingli took the tea cup casually and said nonchalantly: "You don't need to worry about these things. Go back and take a good rest, read a book, and you will get better."

Zhou Zheng looked at Zhou Qingli’s expression and knew that he would not resign easily. He sighed and couldn’t tell Father Zhou that Emperor Tianqi was going to die soon, and Chongzhen would liquidate the castrated party as soon as he came to power. The darkness is terrible, so if you can hide, you can hide

Zhou Zheng is now a "lunatic", and no one believes it if he said too much. After thinking about it carefully, Zhou Zheng said, "I want to use it for how much money I have at home."

Zhou Qingli picked up the tea cup and said casually, "How much do you want?"

"Ten thousand taels." Zhou Zhengdao.

puff

Zhou Qingli spouted a sip of tea and looked at Zhou Zheng suspiciously.

Zhou Fang and Liu Liuzhe were also shocked and speechless. Their Zhou family was the home of the Qing Dynasty, with royal salary and ancestral property, but they were barely able to maintain it. It would be difficult to put together one thousand taels, ten thousand taels, that is simply unimaginable!

Zhou Qingli has always been rigid and rarely loses his temper. She wiped the tea on her body and looked at Zhou Zheng and said, "What do you want so much silver for?"

Zhou Zheng thought it over, and said in a generous tone: "I want to build an academy. The academy does not teach, but collects books from all over the world. The door is opened, and people from all over the world can watch and spread the saint's enlightenment!"

Zhou Qingli's brows jumped when he heard it. If it were a normal Zhou Zheng, he would have scolded it a long time ago, but this is crazy.

He had a headache, waved his hand, and said, "You are still young, wait until you get married and start a business in the future before you do it, go."

Zhou Zheng could see that Zhou Jiatuo had his own appearance and had no money. He quietly said "Uh" and turned to leave.

Liu Liuzhe hurriedly followed. This second young master's behavior became more and more weird, and he actually said nothing more than ten thousand taels.

Zhou Fang reacted a little slower. Just about to turn around, he saw Uncle Fu hurried in. He came to Zhou Qingli's side with a dignified face, and leaned close and whispered: "Master, there is news from the staff that Zhong Qinyong has been settled."

Zhou Qingli looked slightly startled, and said, "Is it true?"

Fu Bo sternly said: "Eight or nine do not leave ten." (End of this chapter)
