With Cui's clan leader being so eloquent, Feng Zhen completed the task given by Jiang Pengji without much effort.
He reported back to Jiang Pengji, detailing the details of his meeting and conversation with Cui Patriarch.
After thinking about it, Jiang Pengji asked Fengzhen, "Do you think this person is credible?"
She intends to support the gentry forces of her own faction, but that is just a piece of candy she threw away. If Cui Clan accepts it as soon as she sees it, she doesn't mind letting Cui Clan seek benefits and become an emerging force in Chongzhou. If they are greedy and want to eat both ways, she can't tolerate Cui.
"My lord, I really think this person is credible." Feng Zhen thought about it and said solemnly, "The Cui family started out as a businessman. Because of their heels, they are not welcome in Chongzhou, and they even look down on others. When they come, they will forcibly suppress the Chongzhou gentry. For the Cui clan, the orthodox gentry has been suppressed, and they have a good opportunity to make a difference. If they can get the support of the lord, the Cui clan will soar to the sky."
Only when the first-line gentry in Chongzhou are suppressed, can the second-class gentry or the poor family have the possibility of ascending to the top.
Under such circumstances, Mr. Cui could not continue to treat them with a businessman's speculative mentality. After all, they also saw Jiang Pengji's decisiveness and ruthlessness. Is it so easy to step on two boats? An accidental shipwreck and death, the Cui family took root in Chongzhou, and they did not dare to take the risk.
Jiang Pengji tapped the table with her fingers, and pondered for a while before answering.
"You said, that Cui Zhonghuan asked me to name his Xiaodouding?"
Cui Chonghuan refers to the head of the Cui family.
Whether it is "Yu" or "Huan", both have bright meanings, which is a good moral.
Feng Zhen smiled and said, "Yes, but according to Yichen, the lord can give him a nickname or a word that he can use in the future."
As for the serious name, let the Cui family master pick it up himself.
Feng Zhen has not yet experienced Jiang Pengji's naming waste. He feels that his master has read a lot of books, and his literary talent must be fine.
It turns out -
"It's better to take a table character or a nickname, or a table character, it looks more serious. Why don't you call it Bai Bai?"
The corners of Feng Zhen's mouth twitched, and Guan Qi, who was handling the official documents, made his reaction more direct, and accidentally pushed down a pile of bamboo slips.
"My lord, are you serious? If I remember correctly, isn't that the name of a horse in the Hanmei family?"
Feng Zhen almost didn't laugh when he heard the name of the horse.
Who came up with such a heartless name
Jiang Pengji smiled, a little teasing light flashing in his eyes.
She said, "Of course it's to scare you, let's just call it... Fushou. I'm going to give this name to the second treasure of Huaiyu's family, but seeing how he and Jingxian get together less often, I want to come to Huaiyu's side in a few years. There's no good news, I'll get another one later."
With a heartless name like "Bai Bai", Feng Zhen doesn't dislike Fushou, it sounds good, after all, the meaning is good.
"Perhaps this is the so-called 'big vulgarity is great elegance'? The taboo name Fushou can also be crossed."
Feng Zhen has not yet understood a truth - reading a lot of books is not the same as being brilliant in literature, and his master is actually illiterate.
Compared to Feng Zhen who was kept in the dark, Qi Guan Rang knew the truth.
He said, "It makes me feel that this 'Fu Shou' and the 'Longevity', the daughter of Huai Yu's family, have the same meaning."
It's all about good meaning, but it's actually vulgar.
Feng Zhen was puzzled, and gestured to Qi Guanrong with his eyes to let him explain.
Guan Qi gave way, "Simply put, if you don't want your child to bear an indescribable name, don't look for the master."
Although it is an honor to let the lord give a name, but you can't cheat children again, right
For example, Qi Guanrang, he named his daughter without looking for Jiang Pengji, but turned over a lot of classics in private.
The ghost knows that if the lord takes it, will names such as "Double Happiness", "Rui'an", and "SF Express" appear
With such a precious daughter under his knees, Qi Guan Rang couldn't bear to cheat on his daughter.
Feng Zhen's expression...
That was indescribable.
On the second day, Cui Yu, the head of the Cui family, came to the door in person. He not only brought his eldest son, but also brought a big gift to Jiang Pengji.
Cui's nomination certificate.
Looking at the letter of nomination submitted by Cui's family, Jiang Pengji had a better understanding of Cui's current patriarch, Cui Yu.
This is a politician who has been delayed by business.
Not only does he have a keen sense of smell and a far-sighted vision, but he also has an unimaginable formidable courage and decisiveness in handling things.
It is a pity that such speculative businessmen can only enjoy happiness together, and cannot share weal and woe, let alone friendship. Once Jiang Pengji loses power or fails to bring more benefits to Cui, Cui is very likely to find a partner who is more suitable for them. After switching jobs, she kicked her.
Cui's willingness to accept the olive branch that Jiang Pengji handed over was mostly because she slaughtered a group of Chongzhou gentry.
If she didn't do this, Cui Shi would still thank her for saving her life, but she would never bet on her.
"Patriarch Cui, what do you mean?"
Jiang Pengji pretended to be puzzled. She glanced at the land deed and the slave deed from Cui Yu, and there was an inscrutable smile on the corner of her lips.
Cui Yu said, "Today the world is in chaos, and the people are struggling to survive. At the moment of national crisis, unexpectedly those greedy and greedy worms took the opportunity to exploit the people, which is actually the worm of the country. Cui is only weak, unable to stop them, and can only do his best. , talk for comfort. I heard that the ruler of the government has made a righteous move, and he wants to set up fields on the border and train soldiers to resist the northern border, which is really a blessing for the people of Chongzhou. I only hope that the ruler will save the people and the fire!"
Jiang Pengji smiled more and more.
Everyone likes to hear good things, and she is no exception.
I have to admit that Cui Yu's commercial boast made her ears very comfortable.
Only then did Jiang Pengji pick up the account book and carefully read the items listed above.
Cui Clan left the sacrificial fields of the clan, and also rented some of the fertile fields bought at a reasonable price to her for free.
Of course, these fields account for a small proportion.
The largest proportion is the fertile land they bought from the common people.
However, compared with the previous gentry, the Cui Clan still has a little conscience. Although they have lowered the price, they have only suppressed it by 30%.
It's better than those ruthless people who lower the price by 30 to 40 times.
Now, in order to gain Jiang Pengji's trust and reuse, Cui's family donated all the land to Jiang Pengji.
In addition to fertile fields, there are many uncultivated boundaries.
Most of these places have nothing good, but the advantage is that the place is vast and suitable for the base of the army.
In addition, there are a lot of deeds here.
She took a general look and found that all these deeds of prostitution belonged to the people of Chongzhou.
Jiang Pengji raised her eyelids and glanced at Cui Yu, and asked silently, her aura was overwhelming.
Cui Yu was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Fu Jun, these body deeds are all the people of Chongzhou who were forcibly sold to the northern Xinjiang. Cui's people are soft-spoken and dare not touch their edge, so they can only use the doorway in private. , quietly buy back a batch and send it to other places for placement."
When he said this, Jiang Pengji smiled again.
"How about I call you back to life?"
