Chapter 196: The sudden dignitary is not a good omen)
Chapter 196
Then, a family of four, including Yang Jinzhong, Zhili, Duan Shizi, Du Fuwei and about ten others.
Then, under the guidance of the police officer who was guarding the place in front of us, we walked around carefully like a group of tourists visiting a scenic spot.
After taking the delivered items from the hands of the policemen, he gave some reward money to the policemen and sent them away.
I wanted to sit in the front hall and feel the joy of my new home, but I looked at the empty front hall.
There was no heat inside or outside, so in the end the family had to discuss awkwardly and go back to the small house first.
After that, Yang Jinzhong was asked to bring a few people over to guard the empty house.
After all, the silks, satin, and property gifted by the emperor must also be guarded against the prying eyes of young people.
Returning to the family's former home, Yang Jinzhong and other servants of the Yang Mansion began to get busy.
As for Yang Ning, the newly promoted founding father of Xingyang County, he continued to wear his first-class court uniform and sat on the edge of the couch with a look of helplessness.
For no other reason than because of the request of my wife, Mrs. Han, she wanted to take a good look at her husband wearing this court uniform.
Mr. Han admired it with watery eyes, and occasionally said a few words of emotion.
"It's so beautiful. This court uniform matches my husband so well. Isn't it, Da Lang?"
"Yes, what mother said is absolutely true. I also think this is very suitable for father..." Yang Qian agreed dryly.
"What do you think, Muzan?"
"..." The considerate and considerate little Wujiu hugged the ugly stuffed tiger and could only continue to nod.
The hot meals were finally served, and the already hungry family finally regained their former warmth.
Yang Ning took off his court clothes and put on his usual clothes. He rarely drank wine at noon.
Even my mother, Mrs. Han, decided to have a drink, and Yang Qian, the eldest son of the Yang family who was about to turn sixteen, naturally also ordered a drink.
After eating delicious food and drinking wine, we began to discuss His Majesty's reward.
The way to deal with things like money and silk is very simple, just store them first and access them when necessary.
What is more important are the other rewards given by the emperor.
#####
"Your Majesty conferred on me the title of Founding Duke of Xingyang County. This is indeed a rare honor. After all, since the Daye Year, I am really the first one..."
Yang Qian nodded in agreement. Since he heard that Yang Guang was going to confer a knighthood on his father, Yang Qian had to be concerned about it anyway.
In the early years of the great cause, Yang Guangke made some serious maneuvers and changed the five titles of duke, marquis, uncle, son and male in the Sui Dynasty.
Only the two titles of duke and marquis were retained. The three titles of uncle, son and male were all eliminated.
It can be said that at least more than two-thirds of the nobles of the Sui Dynasty were greatly affected, which really caused the anger of the heavens and the people.
It also made many of the meritorious ministers who followed Yang Jian and founded the Sui Dynasty very dissatisfied.
After all, the Sui Dynasty inherited from the Western Wei Dynasty and the Northern Zhou Dynasty. High-ranking officials and generals at all levels almost all had different levels of titles and titles.
Enjoy the special status of Guizhou and obtain the privilege of being an official for generations.
As a result, the cruel methods of Yang Guang, the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, also caused many interest groups to gradually distance themselves from Yang Guang, who was determined to have his own way.
"... Mr. Xu just discussed with me privately that if the slaves rewarded by the emperor want to be stable, they can serve the master loyally.
It is best to choose more young and strong people. Although men are more useful, if there are no women, it will be easy to cause trouble in the future."
"Besides, our Yang family has a small population, so we really don't need many people to serve us.
Besides, our Yang family doesn’t have any old foundation, so to suddenly become famous is not a good sign.
So I decided for my husband to have more men of eleven or twelve years old to practice the song. I wonder what the lady thinks?"
Buqu is also another name for domestic servants, but what is different from domestic servants is that they need to practice martial arts, but on weekdays, they serve as guards and domestic servants.
And if the master's family needs to participate in the war, then they will become the master's personal soldiers.
Just like the Zheng family in Xingyang, they have nearly 100,000 acres of fertile land and support three to four thousand slaves. If something unexpected happens, these three or four thousand slaves can instantly pick up swords and guns and become Zheng family's private soldiers.
.
This is the instinct that the aristocratic families of this era rely on to survive in troubled times.
Otherwise, how could those aristocratic families be able to remain calm and stable during the change of dynasties? That is because they not only have food, but also a certain degree of strength.
Therefore, Yang Ning's choice was naturally a well-thought-out one. It was originally passed down for several generations but failed to flourish.
The Yingze Yang family, which has not yet become famous, now has the opportunity, so it is natural that it must do everything possible to protect its achievements.
Hearing this, Yang Qian nodded repeatedly with a sincere look on his face, "Okay, old father, you are indeed very wise and powerful, that's how you should be."
Mrs. Han nodded and said with deep understanding. "My husband has thought carefully, so we can just do it according to his wishes."
"In a few days, I will go to my eldest brother's house. I will pick out some suitable ones from the battle-tested songs left by my father..."
Listening to my father who spoke in a gentle voice and spoke in a clear and logical manner, my mother, a virtuous and virtuous mother who devoted herself to running the house, was picking up and missing things.
It seemed that Yang Qian had no chance to interrupt other than squatting aside and shouting 666 in his mind.
"Also, my husband is considering whether to negotiate with the Ministry of Household Affairs and continue to purchase the fiefdom and Yongye fields in Xingze County."
"As for the food towns, the same is true. The villagers of Daze Village have been with my Yang family for several generations..."
After Yang Ning said this, he let out a sigh of relief, looked at Yang Qian and smiled.
"Qian'er, what do you think of being a father? What kind of thoughts do you have? I would like to take this opportunity to tell you."
#####
"Me?" Yang Qian pointed to his nose and glanced at his mother and father beside him in confusion.
When Mrs. Han saw that her son, who was usually extremely shrewd, now looked stupid and cute, he couldn't help but shook his head and said angrily.
"Who else can I have besides you? You are the eldest son. In the future, your father's title, estate, and estate will all be left to you."
"Your mother is right." Yang Ning smiled, picked up the teacup, and sipped...ha...the familiar sound of drinking water appeared again.
Looking into his parents' eyes, Yang Qian once again felt his parents' deep concern.
In this case, Yang Qian would naturally not hide it.
"Father, mother, and children don't have any experience in this area.
However, the child feels that what his father said is very true, it is best for our Yang family’s fields to be concentrated in one place."
"Xingze is the place where our Yang family has been operating for several generations. What's more, the relationship between the Zheng family in Xingyang and our Yang family can be considered harmonious now."
"Coupled with the dedication of engraving and printing, the Zheng family has been firmly tied to us. We are just here to help each other..."
