Hu Buwei really thought that his son did not want to leave his side, and said softly: "Tian'er, people have to grow up one day. If you stay in the capital and stay with me, you will always be like a flower in a greenhouse, and it is difficult to truly grow up.
It's hard for me to really let go of you, son! Although dad is old, he is not confused. He knows that only by letting go can you fly!"
Hu Xiaotian was shocked. He suddenly discovered that this father's educational philosophy was not feudal at all and was absolutely in line with modern education methods. Yes, you can only fly if you let go. The flowers in the greenhouse cannot withstand the wind and rain. Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "
Dad, I understand!"
Hu Buwei didn't know whether this boy really understood or was fooling him, but he was very relieved to hear what he said. He sighed and said, "I heard about you and the Shi family boy."
Hu Xiaotian said: "The matter has been resolved, and I became sworn brothers with him!"
Hu Buwei said: "Relationships cannot be measured by whether we are sworn friends or not. The two words of loyalty and righteousness are not static. What can we do even if we are brothers? My father has been an official for many years and has seen countless brothers turning against each other.
The first thing you should consider in the world is yourself!" Although Hu Buwei's words are not noble, they are very realistic. Human nature is like this. If people don't do it for themselves, they will be punished by heaven and earth!
Hu Xiaotian said: "Dad, I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble this time."
Hu Buwei smiled and said: "A blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise. Everything has two sides. You are my son, and we should never use polite words."
When it was time to leave, Hu Xiaotian realized that he was not familiar with the capital. He had not even visited the capital properly. During the few trips he took, something happened every time.
I wanted to spend these three days exploring the capital, but I didn't expect that the weather would be unfavorable and it would rain constantly. In such weather, the best choice would be to stay at home.
Hu Xiaotian didn't need to worry about anything when traveling. He didn't even need to go to the Ministry of Personnel to collect documents and official seals in person. However, he still took the time to browse the documents and understand his future treatment. According to the regulations of the Ministry of Personnel, officials' salaries are usually divided into three parts.
The first part is Lumi, the second is land, and the third is salary. A ninth-grade official like Hu Xiaotian only has Lumi. His Lumi is thirty shi, and one hundred and twenty kilograms is one stone. One stone is equivalent to ten buckets.
It adds up to 3,600 kilograms. This salary adds up to ten kilograms a day. It should be possible to starve to death and have endless food. The extra food can be exchanged for some money, which is probably enough to meet daily needs.
Looking back at my father's salary, the annual lumi alone is 400 shi and 48,000 jins. No wonder it is said that a person with a high official position can be crushed to death. Just having multiple lumis can crush a person to death.
Dakang's official system is divided into nine ranks and thirty ranks. The first rank to the ninth rank are divided into Zheng and Cong. The fourth rank to the Ninth rank are divided into upper and lower ranks. If Hu Xiaotian counts down from the first rank to Zheng, he can't find out where he is, but
If you count down, it would be very clear. He is the lower rank of the ninth rank. The rank lower than him is from the ninth rank to the upper and lower ranks. He is the third oldest in the backward ranking. If you regard thirty levels as steps, you still have two steps left if you want to climb all the way up.
Seventeen steps, it gives me a headache just thinking about it.
Fortunately, Hu Xiaotian is not a fan of officialdom. After his rebirth, his biggest wish is to enjoy life, rather than chasing fame and fortune. Although his marriage is not satisfactory, the date of the wedding will be postponed for two years, and there are still many problems in it.
Big variable. His biggest advantage now is that he is young. He is not yet 17 years old biologically, which means he has a lot of time to squander. Going to Qingyun is equivalent to working at the grassroots level. In ancient times, gold plating was also important.
Therefore, the purpose of sending myself to this small county in the southwest border is to, firstly, keep myself away from the political storm that may arise due to the change of throne in the past two years, and secondly, to gain more political achievements and learn some political experience.
It seems that this old man wants to follow in his footsteps and embark on a long road to officialdom.
Even though Hu Xiaotian is the son of Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance, and even though he has done a few big things that can barely be considered sensational recently, there are still too few people in the capital who know about him, and Kangdu is too big, and most people's attention is focused on the imperial city.
, few people would notice that the son of the Minister of Hubu is about to leave the capital to become an official. Of course, this is related to Hu Buwei deliberately keeping a low profile. He does not want too many people to know about his son going out to become an official. The more this kind of thing is done, the more likely it will be.
The better it is, the better. After all, he has served in the court for many years and has offended many people. His son has always been his weakest link and the one he cares about the most. He does not want his enemies to target his son.
Although the capital is not Hu Xiaotian’s hometown, he still feels a little sad when leaving. The continuous rain will always have some impact on his mood. Hu Xiaotian remembered some things and forgot some things. Because there were too many things, he actually
I forgot about giving gold to the Fang family and my daughter.
Some people forget and others remember that Hu Xiaotian did not expect that Murong Feiyan would take the initiative to come to his house to look for him, let alone that this girl would actually come to him to collect debts.
Hearing that Murong Feiyan came to see him, Hu Xiaotian immediately asked Liang Dazhuang to invite her in. Before leaving, Hu Xiaotian discovered that he did not have a friend in the capital. Although Murong Feiyan was not his friend, he was still more or less.
He is considered an old acquaintance, and it would be good to have someone to chat with before leaving.
Murong Feiyan was wearing a dark blue warrior uniform. In fact, Hu Xiaotian had known her for a while. The only time he saw her wearing women's clothing was when she was assassinated on Tuo Street.
Murong Feiyan has a brave and heroic figure that is rare for women of this era. The red folding umbrella in her hand is extremely colorful, like a delicate flower blooming in the rain. The rainwater drips down along the edge of the red folding umbrella.
, covering her beautiful figure like a bead curtain.
Hu Xiaotian was sitting in the waterside pavilion, looking at Murong Feiyan walking out of the rain with a smile. Her appearance added a touch of bright color to this dark world.
Murong Feiyan walked into the corridor, put away her umbrella, and leaned the folded umbrella on the corridor pillar. Her clear and deep beautiful eyes found Hu Xiaotian in the waterside pavilion.
Hu Xiaotian was lying on the bench of the waterside pavilion, half lying and half leaning against the wall behind. The expression on his face was lazy, as if he had just woken up, and his eyes were half open and half closed, unable to cheer up. In Murong Fei's eyes
It seemed to Yan that this expression was full of laziness and weariness. Only a young man with no worries about food and clothing would have such an expression.
Murong Feiyan walked slowly towards Hu Xiaotian. Hu Xiaotian just looked at her like this, his eyes motionless and his body motionless. When Murong Feiyan came to her, he said, "What advice does Murong Captou have?"
Murong Feiyan said: "I happened to pass by Shangshu Mansion, so I came here to remind you of something."
Hu Xiaotian said in shock: "What's the matter?"
Murong Feiyan stretched out two slender jade fingers and waved them in front of Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Er! I know you. I said Murong was the head hunter. You cursed me as soon as we met? Did you and I have a grudge in the previous life?"
Murong Feiyan glared at him and said, "Stop pretending to be stupid, who promised to give me five taels of gold?"
When Hu Xiaotian heard this, he remembered that in the past two days, because he was about to leave Beijing for a post in Xichuan, he had actually ignored this matter and completely forgotten about sending money to the Fang family's father and daughter. He couldn't help but take a picture.
Patting his head, he sat up straight on the bench and said, "Hey, if you didn't tell me, I would have really forgotten!"
Murong Feiyan stood there, looking at him condescendingly, with a look of contempt on her face. She didn't believe that Hu Xiaotian had accidentally forgotten. This guy was very cunning.
Hu Xiaotian waved to Liang Dazhuang, and Liang Dazhuang quickly nodded and leaned over.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Da Zhuang, go to the accounting room and withdraw five taels of gold. Send it to Mr. Yuan from Yi Yuantang immediately and ask him to help me deliver it to the Fang family and his daughter."
Liang Dazhuang said: "Master, five taels of gold is not a small amount. If I ask for it, the counting house may not give it to me."
Hu Xiaotian said angrily: "How dare he refuse to pay for all the nonsense? If you ask him to come over to see me, I will tell him directly!"
Liang Dazhuang responded and left.
Murong Feiyan heard the exchange between their master and servant, and then she believed that Hu Xiaotian might have really forgotten. In fact, since Hu Xiaotian helped her take out the canine barb arrow, her impression of Hu Xiaotian had changed a lot without knowing it.
This guy was not as bad as he initially thought. That day at Yanyun Tower, if Hu Xiaotian hadn't come forward, the Fang family's father and daughter would have been in great trouble. In that matter, Murong Feiyan deliberately dragged Hu Xiaotian into the water. Thinking about it afterwards
I still feel a little guilty. Seeing that Hu Xiaotian has fulfilled his promise, Murong Feiyan said: "I'm leaving!" Please ask for more tickets for the Dream Cup~!
