Chapter 115: Great Officials


The third more is delivered, and if the 300 monthly ticket plus more can stabilize the 3,000 average at night, there will be brothers who add more, begging for subscription went to Chang'an, without the slightest accident or embarrassment, Zhang Chao successfully got the medal he had won, and he also received a hundred taels of gold.

There is no bad habit of smoking, and a hundred taels of gold and a lot of them are handed over to Zhang Chao.

When he received it, the official also weighed it in person, and the gold cake was also marked with the seal of the royal inner treasury to ensure quality.

Zhang Chao is also an interesting person, and when he came, he had already prepared a lot of pig kidney silver, one or two yuan, the money is not much, and it can be worth more than half a point.

But it is better to be light, and it is naturally best to use it to give thanks, and stuff a piece for each of the clerks.

As for those officials, Zhang Chao didn't give it.

Hades is better, but the little ghost is difficult.

The officials below are the ones who are difficult, but the officials, it is better not to give less, but if you give more, people may not accept it, after all, it is the beginning of the dynasty.

The gold was received, and a small box was only a little more than six catties, which was not as heavy as the usual copper coins.

The rewarded 100 acres of land were also received, and the land was not in Bashang, but under Lishan Mountain in the northeast of Bashang, which belonged to Xinfeng County.

Lishan is also a famous mountain in the suburbs of Beijing, there are many hot springs, the royal Huaqing Palace is built there, and there are many manors of dignitaries there.

It is not easy to get 100 acres of land by the Weishui River.

Zhang Chao and his father's Lord Yongye Tian originally had 600 acres, but it was necessary to deduct the 60 acres of Yongye Tian that had been awarded by the previous father.

In addition, the land of Gyeonggi was not given, and finally the lord Yongye field of the two was given 400 acres.

The 400 acres of Lord Yongye Field are divided into Liyang County in the north of the Wei River, and there are still a few pieces of scattered land.

All of a sudden, another 500 acres of land were recorded in the account, and Zhang Chao was very happy.

After leaving the Yamen, he immediately went to the West Market, took a few sauced duck and smoked chicken from his own store, and rushed to the house of the eldest grandson Wuji to thank him.

The eldest grandson Wuji didn't underestimate the things Zhang Chao mentioned, "These sauce-flavored braised pork of yours are now very famous and popular in Chang'an City." ” Zhang Chao just smiled, the cooked food in the store is not ordinary steamed buns, it is meat itself, and it is processed with such spices, soy sauce and sugar, how can it not be delicious.

Even those rich and noble families may not have eaten such things before.

And cooked food also has a benefit, it can be eaten at any time, and it is not easy to spoil.

Although Zhang Chao's price is set higher, there are still many people who buy it, of course, they buy those rich nobles and wealthy businessmen, they are not short of money, that is, those Xinfeng wine, Sanle pulp, Gaochang wine and other fine wines that cost thousands of dollars, they buy a lot of them.

A little lo-mei, even if it is expensive, it can't make them too expensive to eat.

"It's a pity that I can't get beef, otherwise I have a secret recipe, spiced beef, which tastes better."

Zhang Chao said with a smile.

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled disapprovingly, "If you really want beef, I can ask someone to say hello for you, don't dare to say more, a hundred catties of beef a day can still give you a uniform." ” Ordinary people are not allowed to slaughter ploughing cattle privately, and to kill cattle, they must first be old cows, sick cows, or cattle injured by falls, and secondly, they must first be approved by the government.

Under normal circumstances, the cattle are handed over to the government to collect and slaughter.

In Chang'an, the capital division, there is a place for slaughtering cattle.

Most of those cattle were old cattle that could not plough the land, and after receiving them from the Jingshi, they were slaughtered and supplied to the court and the nobles of the Jingshi.

Cowhide, cowhide, tendon, horn, etc. belong to military materials and are directly collected by the government.

For a character like the eldest grandson Wuji, not to mention eating beef, it is not a problem to eat camels and horses.

"Then thank you to the county magistrate."

"Are you interested in being an official?"

asked the eldest grandson Wuji suddenly.

"You can make soap and you can make a plow, you have a lot of brains.

If you want to be an official, the Ministry of Works, the general will be a supervisor or even Sinong Temple, you can choose one place.

First of all, there is no problem in arranging a petty official of eight or nine grades for you.

If you can do well, it will be easy to get promoted.

After working in Beijing for a few years, you can also be delegated to the local area to become a second official, and even if you do well in the future assessment, it is possible to be a chief official. ” Zhang Chao shook his head, Eldest Sun Wuji's words were very sincere, not to show off.

He believed that as long as he nodded, the eldest grandson Wuji would really help him get him to become an official in the yamen of the capital.

But he also understands that what he is going to now is really only to build a yamen like Jiang Zuo, to put it bluntly, he went, in fact, to be a craftsman.

These days, craftsmen are not as comfortable as engineers.

That is once you become a craftsman, it is estimated that you can only go around in this circle for the rest of your life.

Zhang Chao didn't want to position himself as a craftsman, he would rather be a landlord.

How free the landlord is, now he has made some money, and he has also purchased some family business, and he has saved more than 1,000 acres of land, which is not a small landlord.

Anyway, I have an honorable officer now, and I am also an official.

"You can go back and think about it, and if you have this idea in the future, just tell me."

This time, Zhang Chao handed over the plow to him, which also gave the eldest grandson Wuji a lot of benefits.

On the above merits, the eldest grandson Wuji also received a compliment from Li Yuan, and he also added a hundred households of true sealed food to him.

Even his sister Princess Qin received a lot of praise, and Li Shimin also received praise.

After coming back, Li Shimin praised him a lot.

And last time, he took 20% of Zhang Chao's shares in the soap shop for 1,000 yuan, which was a very cheap thing.

Today, making an exception, the eldest grandson Wuji actually left Zhang Chao at home for lunch.

The eldest grandson Wuji asked Zhang Chao to take the cured duck smoked chicken and braised elbow to cut, served a few mutton dishes, and even ordered wine.

The eldest grandson Wuji didn't call anyone else, so the two of them sat and drank.

"You have a thousand acres of land now, right?"

Zhang Chao nodded.

"Yes, in just a few months, he became a landlord.

You can be regarded as an official now, and in the future, this cake shop and soap shop will just find a reliable and trustworthy person to help you, and you don't have to do everything yourself.

I'm so worried about my identity, but now it's not as good as before. ” These words have a bit of the meaning of the elders teaching the juniors, if it weren't for the eldest grandson Wuji who felt that Zhang Chaoren was okay, he would not have said such a thing.

"Thank you for the teachings of the county princess."

Of course, Zhang Chao also understands that businessmen are lowly industries, even if they are landlords to do business, they are not good-looking.

It's just that I didn't have anything before, I didn't work hard myself, and I sat at home and cared about my identity, so I could only drink the northwest wind.

Now, after hard work, there are indeed some achievements.

There are more than 1,000 acres of land at home, nearly 2,000 acres of land, even if the catering business is doing okay, on the right track, pastries, soy products, braised meat, these have stable profits, Zhang Chao will hire a special steward to take care of it in the future, and it will not have much impact, he just needs to operate behind the scenes, and he doesn't need to show up at the front desk anymore.

"Read more books when you have time."

The eldest grandson Wuji sandwiched a piece of elbow and ate it very deliciously.

"I also have that idea, and I also plan to build some private schools in the village, and invite two gentlemen next year to enlighten the children in the village."

"This is good, it is a good thing to educate the people."

Zhang Chao actually had a plan for a long time, which was to engage in engraving printing.

Nowadays, books are too expensive, and most of the books are in the hands of those scholars, and if you want to write and read this book, you have to borrow books and copy them by hand.

If Zhang Chao solves the ink problem by then, then it is not difficult to find a craftsman to carve the plate.

The most difficult thing about engraving printing is the problem of ink, and ordinary ink cannot be engraved and printed.

Another problem is that the engraving must be printed, or the cost is too high, it is not as cost-effective as hand-copying.

And if a large number of printing, engraving damage and large, in short, to engage in engraving, first of all, you have to think of a good project to print books, you have to prepare sales channels, otherwise the initial investment is not a little two.

As for movable type printing, Zhang Chao didn't think that far ahead.

First get out the engraving printing, then get a few editions of the classics such as the Analects and the Book of Poetry, find a good channel, and then go all out to print, and then open a bookstore in Chang'an City, won't it cause Chang'an to shake.

No matter how expensive the engraving is, it is always more time-saving and labor-saving than hand-copying.

Efficiency is money, how can hand-copying a book be compared with printing a book.

At that time, the price of the carved version of the book will drop sharply, so that knowledge can be disseminated more quickly.

This is a major event for the revitalization of culture through science and education.

Even at that time, Zhang Chao can study papermaking, improve the process, and make cheaper paper.

But these are not in a hurry now, take your time.

One meal made Zhang Chao have a lot of real knowledge of the eldest grandson Wuji, and he felt that the eldest grandson Wuji was very good.

Quite a smart person, but also very free-spirited.

Even with a little person like Zhang Chao, he can chat, eat and drink with laughter.

After eating, the eldest grandson Wuji personally sent Zhang Chao to the door, and when he saw Zhang Chao riding an old crossbow horse, he smiled.

"Don't you have a good black horse?"

"I let my father ride it as a reserve horse, and when I go on a journey, many good horses sometimes have many lives."

"That's a good thing, so be it, I'll give you a horse, and you're welcome."

"The elder gives, don't dare to resign."

Zhang Chao smiled, not polite at all.

The eldest grandson Wuji gave Zhang Chao a jujube red horse, very beautiful, only four years old.

"Thank you, the county magistrate."

Many people in the Changsun Mansion were very shocked when they watched this scene, and they couldn't imagine that Lang Jun actually attached so much importance to a country boy.

"I think that when my sister and I were kicked out of the house, how could they have thought that we would have today, don't underestimate Zhang Sanlang, I think this kid is extraordinary."

Zhang Chao couldn't hear the comment of the eldest grandson Wuji, he rode back to Bashang on a jujube red horse, and the bolt rode his old white horse.

The jujube red saddle is complete, and it is also quite a divine horse, leaving the old white horse far behind.

It took nearly half of the time to return to Bashang from Chang'an than when I went.

The housekeeper Zhang Gui greeted him.

"The fourth lady of the Zhao family came to visit, and I asked my mother-in-law to entertain her in the courtyard."

"What is she going to do" Zhang Chao was a little surprised.

He handed the reins to the steward and told him to leash them.

After tidying up his clothes, Zhang walked towards the courtyard with big strides.

Zhao Siniang sat there and was generous, very imposing of a professional woman.

Zhang Chao came in, and she got up and saluted.

She explained her intentions and heard that Zhang Jiazaburo had invented a very useful new plow, and that the new plow could save one ox compared to the past, so she hoped to order a batch of new plows in Zhang's house.

"Actually, although this new plough is much easier to use, it is very simple to make, I will send you a new plough, you can take it back and find someone to make it according to it."

Unexpectedly, Zhao Siniang said, "This new plough is made by San Lang, how can we learn your craft at will."

Or ask Saburo to make it for us, as much as a plane, I want to book a hundred new plows, I don't know if it's possible. ” "Absolutely."

Zhang Chao replied with a smile, this girl is really interesting, he couldn't help but think. t1706231537:
