Chapter 282: Wei Zheng

  Chapter 282 Wei Zheng

   Yongxing Square.

  Wei Zheng sipped fried broad beans and drank some wine. The night breeze in early summer was cool. Sitting on the porch and drinking without bothering mosquito bites made him indescribably comfortable.

  The butler came to report that several people had sent invitations to visit.

  Wei Zheng didn't even look at the post, and waved his hand, "No see."

   "Ah Lang, they are all famous talents in Chang'an." The housekeeper said.

   "Junjie's fart, if they were Junjie, they wouldn't even be able to understand that this is a drama played by Weng and his son-in-law. At this moment, they are rushing to throw stones. Isn't this courting death?"

   Wei Zheng breathed out the smell of alcohol, and his face was full of disdain. The so-called outstanding talents are just the compliments among the children of the aristocratic family. They only saw that Qin Lang had passed away in a hundred days, and they really thought that Qin Lang, a lucky minister, was going to be unlucky, and they all wanted to step on it. Claiming to be a minister is just a high-sounding reason, but in fact they just want to step on Qin Sanlang's position.

  After all, even if Qin Sanlang was dismissed as prime minister, he was also a prime minister after all. If they could defeat Qin Lang, it would naturally be a rare achievement for them.

   Mrs. Pei came over with a jug of wine, saw that her husband's glass was empty, and refilled another glass for him.

"What's going on with Qin Sanlang's resignation this time? Could there be another change in the previous New Deal reforms?" Mrs. Pei is more concerned about Guogong Liquor. This is the business that Qin Sanlang brought with the Wei family, although the Wei family is now inside It only takes up 20% of the shares, but it doesn't need any investment. Now Guogong Distillery has opened many workshops in various places, and the business is getting bigger and bigger. The Wei family gets a lot of money every quarter. Same as white check.

Mrs. Pei is now counting on this income so that she can accumulate it, and then ask for a woman with five surnames for her son. She has even asked her natal Mrs. Pei to inquire about it. She is most interested in Taiyuan Wang, who is also from Hedong, so I hope that the daughter-in-law is also a woman from Hedong, so that it will be easier to get along with in the future.

It's just that it's not easy to marry a daughter of the Wang family in Taiyuan. In the early years, a family like Wei Zheng couldn't marry a daughter of the Wang family. In recent years, it has been better after going through the end of the Sui Dynasty. Cai, this dowry gift is also indispensable.

   To marry Wang’s daughter and get started, the Wei house in Yongxingfang has to be redecorated. It’s best to buy the house next door and expand it, but not all of these need money.

Although Wei Zheng has been exiled from Beijing because of Wang Gui and a few other friends, and the Troll family lacks powerful partners, he still perseveres on the road of Trolls. He spends all day studying the latest policies of the imperial court and delving into the real-time developments of the emperor's prime ministers, so there is no one who understands the direction of the policy of the court and China better than Wei Zheng.

  He snorted disdainfully.

   "Didn't I just say that the son-in-law Weng put on a good show, and now that the son-in-law Weng is over, the brother-in-law and sister-in-law are acting there again, hmph!"

   "What do you mean?" Mrs. Pei didn't understand, and stared at Wei Zheng directly. Although Wei Zheng usually sprayed everything in the court, and even the emperor often wanted to eat his spittle, he was a little afraid of guilt.

   Pei stared, and Wei Zheng quickly sat upright.

  He looked around, "Go out."

   When everyone was gone, he said in a low voice, "Young lady, please keep your voice down too, this governor is too shameless, they can even eavesdrop on us when we are under the covers."

   "Is there such a thing?" Pei Shi was startled, but turned to think of the occasional funny words between the two of them, and couldn't help but blush.

"Isn't that right, this Qin Sanlang is really a generous guy. Hey, speaking of what he said just now, it means that Qin Lang worshiped his prime minister and dismissed his chancellor. In fact, it was the emperor's idea, and Qin Lang was very smart and fully cooperated. When the emperor needed to reform the New Deal, Qin Lang was the first to jump out. Now that the reform has been stabilized, he patted his **** down again. After all, Qin Lang is the emperor's shit-stirring stick, and Qin Lang is also very self-aware. , I know my position very well, so I don't have the slightest nostalgia, I took the initiative to resign three times before, and then beat Chai Shao's son this time."

   "Chai Lingwu is miserable. He probably doesn't know the reason why his **** is blooming because of the spanking. In fact, it's just that the two of them acted more realistically for the sake of tricks."

  After Wei Zheng finished speaking, he picked up a broad bean and threw it into his mouth, crunching and sipping the wine, that was very pleasant.

  Pei made a sound.

   "According to your opinion, it means that Qin Sanlang has not fallen out of favor?"

"Falling out of favor, look at the few prime ministers who were dismissed before. Where did they go after they were dismissed? They were all relegated to places where they served as governors or governors. Wei Ting stayed in Beijing, but he was also relegated to the palace. Qin Lang What? He dismissed the transfer envoy, which sounds like he fell out of favor, but on the other side, he was immediately promoted from the second-rank Guanglu doctor to the second-rank prince and junior teacher. Is this demotion?"

  Pei's family was relieved instead, she was worried that Qin Lang would be demoted, since it's good that he didn't fall out of favor, then there would be no problem with Guogong Liquor, and the Wei family could continue to receive the dividend.

"You, you have to learn more from Qin Sanlang. You see, he thinks about the emperor and thinks about things for the emperor. You just say that this place is not good and that is not good, and you can do a few things if you have the ability. It's a big deal."

Wei Zheng didn't expect his wife to stand by Qin Lang's side instead. He was a little helpless, but he couldn't refute, so he said, "Hundreds of officials and positions, each has its own specialty. own job."

Mrs. Pei ruthlessly exposed him, "You, you only know how to read dead books, so you can't do anything except play tricks. You're getting old now, and now the children are getting older, and the eldest is almost getting engaged. You can't even get the money for a marriage."

"My family asked for help. The Wang family has a daughter who is not bad. Although she is not the eldest daughter, she is also the daughter of the Xiaozong. It's just that they asked for a million yuan to accompany the family. In addition, the dowry is also necessary. I asked my sister-in-law to help us negotiate a settlement, but they said it would be fine to have a family fortune of 600,000 to 700,000 yuan, but our family has too few houses now, so we can't."

   Wei Zheng felt a little headache when he heard that.

  He is earning some dead wages now. Before that, he worked part-time in Qin Lang's Zhenfu Department for a while, and followed Qin Lang to Hebei to earn some extra money, but it was a one-time job. Now the income is salary, fortunately there is also the dividend from Guogong Winery, which is much higher than his salary.

  But if now he needs to take the family money, pay the dowry, and change the big house, Wei Zheng really has no money.

   "As long as Mrs. Wang is willing to marry a daughter, then our family will be a high climber. If the conditions are met, we will find a way. If you don't have money, then borrow it."

   "Borrow, who to borrow, so much money, my natal family will definitely not be able to borrow it." Mrs. Pei immediately cut off Wei Zheng's plan to borrow money from his wife's natal family.

   It is true that the Pei family was born in the Hedong Pei family, but the problem is that she is only a side branch of the Pei family.

  And Wei Zheng’s parents died early when he was young, and he was so poor that he had no choice but to become a Taoist priest when he was young.

   "Should I ask Kaiyuan Bank for a loan? Anyway, the interest is not high." Wei Zheng asked.

   "It's not like borrowing a little bit, a few thousand is not enough, it needs mortgage, and you can't take out that much mortgage."

   "Then what should we do?" Wei Zheng had a headache, and the wine didn't taste good anymore.

   "What to do, what to do, borrow, find someone to borrow."

  Wei Zheng had a bitter face, "Who can lend us a few thousand pens?"

"You go to Qin Sanlang. He must be rich. Qin Sanlang was rewarded by the emperor this time. He was rewarded with a carload of gold, silver and jewelry. The land properties should add up to over 100,000 mu, right?"

Of course Wei Zheng was aware of Qin Lang's family background, he had been staring at him to find out about Qin Lang's problems, but it was true that Qin Lang had money, but he couldn't find any loopholes in money, and his money didn't come from corruption or bribery. .

   Asking him to ask Qin Lang to borrow money, he really couldn't open his mouth. After all, Qin Lang helped him like that at the beginning, but he often complained about Qin Lang later.

   "If you can't say this, I'll ask Qin Sanlang to borrow it."

   "What do you get for borrowing?"

   "If it doesn't work, I'll go to Qin Sanlang and sell our Guogong liquor, as well as your secret recipe of Weigong liquor and koji to Qin Sanlang at a price."

  Wei Zheng's face was constipated, and after a long time he said bitterly, "Okay, you can go, anyway, I'm too embarrassed to go."

   "You have the face to say it." Pei sarcastically mercilessly.

  Wei Zheng has been reduced to the point where he wants to borrow money from Qin Lang, so naturally he will not take the opportunity to impeach Qin Lang like those ignorant young gentry children outside.

   Qin Lang is doing well, and the holy family is still the same, even going to a higher level. Isn't it a pleasure to impeach Qin Lang at this time?

  So in the face of those guys who regard Wei Zheng as an idol, or want to use Wei Zheng as the leader, Wei Zheng just doesn't see them, and he refuses to sign their bullets.

Don't look at Wei Zheng usually complaining about seven dissatisfaction and eight dissatisfaction all day long, but his spraying is actually selective. Although Wei Zheng also sprays the emperor and Qin Lang, it is not random. .

  At the very least, he will evaluate it first to ensure that the force of spraying will not endanger himself.

This is also the fundamental reason why a large group of revolutionary comrades such as Wang Yuwei Ting fell because of spraying, but Wei Zheng was able to outshine others. It really doesn't matter if they spray, but Wei Zheng is selective. To put it bluntly, Wei Zheng People are actually a bit treacherous.

  Anyway, Qin Lang has seen through Wei Zheng for a long time. He, Feng Deyi and Pei Shiju are actually the same kind of people. They are said to be smart and talented, but none of them are honest and straightforward.

The troll, the lonely minister, is just a persona created by Wei Zheng for himself, and the emperor Li Shimin also needs a courtier like Wei Zheng, so everyone usually tacitly agrees that as long as Wei Zheng does not break through the emperor's bottom line, then he will be a troll. It can be stable and not fall down, and be a queen sprayer.
