"So this year, will our family go to another house to pay New Year's greetings?" Reciprocity of courtesy was reciprocated, and now Feng Ziying also wanted to ask about the arrangements at home.
Since I was not at home, Shen Yixiu, Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu should discuss it and then report it to my wife and them for further processing. I was busy leaving and did not mention it, nor did I ask anything when I came back, which was an oversight.
"Of course I went. The three grandma and my wife and aunt discussed it, and in the name of the master and uncle, they specially sent people to each house..." Yuanyang recalled, "Like Mr. Qi Ge, King Zhongshun , King Zhonghui, Zhang Shangshu, Huang Shangshu, Qiao Youdu Yushi, Guan Shangshu, Cui Shangshu, Chai Shilang, Han Shilang all sent people to their houses..."
No matter how close the Feng family is to these families, the Spring Festival visit is indispensable. Especially in the absence of Feng Ziying, this kind of human relationship needs to be reflected even more. In addition to these teachers and colleagues, some seemingly not so Important or less close relationships also need to be consolidated and deepened through these human interactions.
For example, the two current mountain chiefs and presidents of Qingtan Academy, some colleagues who were originally in the Hanlin Academy, and those from the original three sides and four towns who have been transferred back to the capital to be idle in the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, these all need to be taken into consideration.
"Are these the only people?" Feng Ziying frowned.
Yuanyang seemed to be aware of Feng Ziying's dissatisfaction, and quickly shook her head: "Of course it's not just that, just the list of people who need to be contacted and New Year greetings has been discussed for a long time by the three grandmothers and wives. They should have taken everything into consideration. I do have a detailed list of the list, but I didn’t bring it with me right now, so I might as well go get it for you.”
"Okay, there's no need for that right now." Feng Ziying waved her hand, "I'm mainly interested in who comes to visit our house right now."
It is not necessarily the case that the person waiting for you needs to continue to contact and have a close relationship, but this at least represents an attitude and a tendency of the other person. You can also screen and compare here.
"Guo Yaosheng? Which family is this from?" Feng Ziying seemed a little blurry when she saw the name on the roster. She had some impressions, but she couldn't remember it.
The gift list was somewhat interesting, including two healthy horses, and some miscellaneous gifts, including two lapis lazuli stones and a piece of amber.
A healthy horse is nothing, but lapis lazuli and amber are not too expensive in Hexi, but they are quite expensive in the capital city. After all, these are items produced in the border areas or even outside the territory, and are rare in the mainland. Rareness is considered valuable, but ordinary wealthy people are not fashionable for such foreign objects. On the contrary, rich families are very rare about such things, so whether they are valuable or not depends on who the customer is.
"My servant still has some impressions. He has a beard and a red face. He speaks with a foreign accent, which is somewhat similar to the accents of the second aunt and the third aunt. It seems that he is also acquainted with Mrs. You and was brought here by Mrs. You..." Yuanyang frowned and thought hard. That's when I remembered it.
Feng Ziying was acquainted with the You family? Feng Ziying was stunned, the Hexi accent?
Feng Ziying had some impressions. He was the general in Ganzhou Town who fought with him against Liu Baichuan and Liu Dongyang's attack at that time. He was a colleague with He Zhisheng. He was seriously injured in the first battle. He had a deep impression. However, after he left Ganzhou, he specially asked someone to help him.
I went to greet him, but then there was not much contact. It has been several years. It seems that this guy has not visited in the past few years. Of course, it may be because it is too far away, but what is the reason for visiting this year?
"Well, I understand, Jin Chuan'er, go and ask Yu Chuan'er to find his famous post, and I'll take a look." In addition to the name, the famous post also contains some implicit language, which may not necessarily be apparent at first glance.
You can understand it clearly, but according to the situation, you can know some hidden meanings.
There must be some other intention behind this, but Feng Ziying doesn't care.
He was willing to make contacts with officers from these border towns. Didn't his father accumulate contacts step by step in this way?
However, my current conditions are much better than those of my father. He is not only a civil servant who was born in the imperial examination, but also a martial arts background, and he has the status of the Right Minister of the Ministry of War, which is both civil and military. It can be said that he is good at winning people's hearts and making connections.
This is a good time, which is one of the main reasons why everyone is willing to become a Beijing official. Compared with the narrow contact area in the local area, a Beijing official, of course, refers to a Beijing official who has certain power and rich experience. In terms of network resources,
It will be much thicker.
Not to mention anything else, Bing Jing and Tan Jing are both much richer.
Feng Ziying continued to flip through the pages, and the more she read, the more frightened she became. Many names that she had no memory of appeared on the list. Even if her place of origin was marked, she still had no memory. She still had to find the name card and examine it carefully.
Know the origin.
Of course, there must be many people who have never met each other, but who want to make a name for themselves and leave an impression on the Feng family, including officials, businessmen, and clan members, and they need to be carefully screened and understood.
Seeing Jia Yucun's post, Feng Ziying couldn't help but smile. She specially called up Jia Yucun's gift list and took a look at it.
The gifts were quite generous, including specialties from the south of the Yangtze River and valuable precious things. One was specially given to Lin Daiyu. It was obvious that Jia Yucun also understood that his status as a female student in the government was no longer what it used to be.
This is a character with an agile mind, who lives a very nourishing life both in the book "Dream of Red Mansions" and in this world.
Of course, this guy in "Dream of Red Mansions" ended up in jail because of a fight with his disciples, but that was due to political strife, and it doesn't mean that this guy is bad.
In this life, this guy at least performed well. Even Nanjing did not change the prefect of Jinling who was right under his nose. This is quite extraordinary.
You must know that Jia Yucun was not part of Prince Yi Zhong's party before, and had little connection with Zhen Yingjia, Tang Binyin, Jia Jing and his like. Prince Yi Zhong also needed many important positions to reward those who served him, but he did not touch the prefect of Jinling.
Jia Yucun is enough to show how extraordinary this guy is.
However, it seems that Jia Yucun is also aware that the entire Zhou Dynasty is about to undergo major changes this year. Whether it is Jiangnan, Huguang, or the North and the border, the situation will usher in drastic changes. The puppet dynasty in Nanjing can still survive.
How long will it take before we need to put a question mark, so it is also appropriate to prepare for a rainy day. Picking up this line of our own and even closer contact is probably Jia Yucun's top priority.
Feng Ziying didn't mind strengthening contact with this guy. In fact, this guy had already expressed his sincerity to the court and wrote a letter of surrender.
Of course, this situation is also very common. There are many certificates of allegiance and loyalty sent to the hands of important ministers in the imperial court. They all need to continue to stay in Jiangnan and are unwilling to resign, but they also need to show their loyalty to the imperial court.
People with bad attitudes will adopt this opportunistic approach to achieve their goals.
However, those who can be qualified to send letters must be important ministers and important figures in the court who can speak well. Generally speaking, most of the cabinet ministers and seven ministers are ministers. For officials at the level of minister, they must be senior or
Only those who are quite influential can do so. Feng Ziying did not expect that she would gradually start to enter this sequence.
She sighed in her heart, but the expression on Feng Ziying's face did not change much. Her eyes continued to move on the roster. Who else is there?
Xie Wenli, Xu Huanshan, Hou Ziyu.
Feng Ziying was in a daze, and all the old things in Yongping Mansion came to mind. In fact, it had only been a few years since she left Yongping Mansion. She calculated with her fingers and found that it was only more than three years. She had stayed in Yongping Mansion for just over three years.
The time was not long, less than two years in total, but the two years in Yongping Mansion were extremely important to me, allowing me to understand how to serve as an official in the "basic government" at the prefecture level.
Xie Wenli was the magistrate of Luanzhou at that time, Xu Huanshan was the magistrate of Lulong County, and Hou Ziyu was the magistrate of Yongping Prefecture. It should be said that these three officials had more contacts with each other during their tenure as the magistrate of Yongping Prefecture.
And these three are also typical local snake characters.
It cannot be said that they are colluding with the local gentry. After all, compared with the officials in Leting and Changli, the two magistrates Xie Wenli and Xu Huanshan can still maintain a reasonable attitude and are still supportive of the affairs in the government.
After all, the local gentry in Yongping Prefecture was very powerful. Even when he was appointed as a co-president of the Hanlin Academy, he had a difficult time at the beginning. If the Mongolian invasion did not take the opportunity to open up the situation, I am afraid that the follow-up would not be so smooth.
Although these two people had a close relationship with the local gentry, they also used various means to beat and intimidate the local gentry. Compared with Leting and Changli, the situation was much better when they were completely wrapped up in a helter-skelter mess.
Hou Ziyu was born in Juren and had some connections in the government. At first, he got along with Feng Ziying on a normal basis, but as Feng Ziying became more and more aggressive and even the prefect Zhu Zhiren took the initiative to cooperate, he also moved closer to Feng Ziying very wisely.
Two people like Xie Wenli and Xu Huanshan can be regarded as characters close to Feng Ziying in the later years of Yongping Mansion. However, Feng Ziying's time in Yongping Mansion was too short. When the relationship between these people and Feng Ziying became closer, Feng Ziying left.
, so even Feng Ziying felt a little regretful.
Fortunately, he was succeeded by Lian Guoshi, and his policies could be regarded as consistent with his own. However, the policies could be inherited in the same vein, but the personal connections could not be continued.
Feng Ziying did not expect that he could get close to him in two years. After he arrived at Shuntian Mansion, these people came to visit him during the holidays, but they just walked around normally.
But this time when looking at the gift list, it seems that it is not that simple, especially since these three people almost came together. What does this mean?
Feng Ziying looked at the three sumptuous gift lists and was a little lost for a moment.
