Chapter 897
As soon as Zhang Qing entered the door, he was called to the study of An Guogong. An Guogong looked serious and said, "You are with King Bei'an every day, have you ever heard any wind?"
"What's the wind?" Zhang Qing looked puzzled. The weather was hot recently and the heating bureau had nothing to do. He did stay in the Bei'an Palace most of the time, but what was his father asking?
Duke An was anxious and cursed: "Bastard, why are you busy with every day? You don't know about such a big thing?"
He received the news and hurried back home, so that his son would follow Cheng Mo. He would definitely be the first to know any news. He knew it clearly than others. Now it seems that his son has not grown to this point.
Zhang Qing hasn't been scolded for a long time. Not only has he not been scolded, but he is often praised by his father. He is simply praised when he meets people, which makes him embarrassed. What's wrong with today?
Seeing Zhang Qing’s face was confused, Duke An became even more angry. He slapped him in the head and said, “I am your father, do you even hide me? It’s spread everywhere.”
Zhang Qing was in pain and screamed strangely, saying, "Did my father talk about the rich list? I said it earlier, why, do you want to participate too?"
Duke An Guo was so angry that he slapped him in the head again.
"Why hit me?" Zhang Qing was very dissatisfied and said, "There are so many things, how can I know which one you are talking about? You don't even explain it clearly."
"What else is there? Tell me quickly." Duke An raised his hand again, and it would be like if you don't tell me, I will fight again.
Zhang Qing said helplessly: "One thing is the same. If you want to talk about the rich list, then we will talk about the rich list. This is true. Brother Wu said that he will draw personnel and investigate all kinds of people in the capital to see who has a wealthy family. If he ranks the top 50, he will not be ranked after 50. At that time, the list will be presented to His Majesty in front of the emperor."
The key is the last sentence. If you can rank in the top 50, your name may be seen by the emperor. Don’t underestimate such a small move. This is the most important and the reason why the nobles are hotly discussed.
There is a word called Jian Zai Dixin, which means that the emperor knows that there is someone like you. As long as the emperor knows that there is someone like you, it is enough.
There are only a few people who often sway in front of the emperor. It is a great honor to be able to simplify the emperor's heart. For example, Cheng Mo, the emperor who is called brothers is a freak.
"Is it really good to present it to the imperial court?" Duke An's eyes widened. It seemed that the rumor from outside was right. He slapped Zhang Qing in the head: "Why don't you tell me about such a big thing? I'm so big that I'm not as good as an outsider. It's really outrageous. I'll beat you to death, a bastard."
As he said that, he looked around and looked for the right guy to beat his son.
"Father, what exactly are you going to do? Do you think you can rank in the top 50?" Zhang Qing felt that his father was crazy and was ready to escape at any time. It was serious to hurry to take refuge in the Bei'an Palace.
Duke An Guo looked around and couldn't find a good guy. When he turned around, he saw Zhang Qing rushing to the door and shouted: "Come back!"
"Oh." Zhang Qingyan came back and said, "Father, what do you want?"
Although Duke An Guo was a nobleman and could do something, he had been marginalized since Liu Xun succeeded to the throne and had been idle at home and had no jobs. It was even more difficult to meet the emperor. Only when the emperor and the empress accepted congratulations from all civil and military officials every year on the first day of the first lunar month, can the emperor and the empress meet from afar.
Perhaps the emperor didn't see him, and a large number of people were too dark, so how could he notice him?
He is still stronger and wants to make use of his remaining energy and be more prosperous. The Bei'an King's request for the emperor to get such a rich list must have a deep meaning. If he could hand over the name to the emperor, he might see that he is so rich, or he would send him an errand.
In the late period of Emperor Wu, in order to raise money for military pay, did he sell the official position clearly? He was not allowed to learn from Emperor Wu, so he also made such a list of rich people. However, as long as he had a good job and paid some silver, what would it be?
Duke An Guo sat on the chair with a big golden knife and said, "I want to participate for my father."
Zhang Qing's eyes were also widened and he said, "You want to participate? How do you participate?! Do you know how much silver you will get if you want to be in the top 50?"
This is the ranking of the capital, not the ranking in the circle of nobles. The capital is hidden and has countless wealthy people. With just your industry, you can rank in the top 50? Can you not rank in the top 50 even if you can?
An Guogong said righteously: "You go and find a way."
"Father, you can't cheat me like this. How can I find a way to do it? This is all calculated by the industry under my name, and the annual income. Do you think it's fake?"
Duke An Guo's hand rose again.
Zhang Qing turned his head and avoided it, saying, "If you hit me again, I can't do anything. Otherwise, go and talk to Brother Wu?"
You have to be honest with the fifth brother. Zhang Qing laughed in his heart. Duke An Guo was a little snobbish. When he saw Cheng Mo, he looked like an elder and was extremely kind. He didn't look like he was like waving his hand without saying a word?
It is conceivable that he will definitely eat in front of Cheng Mo.
Duke An thought for a while and said, "How did I teach you? In front of King Bei'an, read more and listen more, and learn a little. You always treat my words as wind in your ears..." He trembled and scolded for a long time.
Zhang Qing was gentle and scolded on the surface, but in fact he imagined the scene of his father sucking his body, which was very pleasant.
After finally waiting for Anguo to finish his training, he said, "Prepare horses and go to Bei'an Prince's Mansion with me." He had to talk to Cheng Mo about this and leave him a quota first. The two families are the best, and Cheng Mo and Zhang Qing have a very common friendship. Cheng Mo will definitely give this face.
He pulled Zhang Qing to find Cheng Mo in a hurry.
The same picture is played out from time to time in the circle of nobles.
This morning, there was a rumor from somewhere that King Cheng Mo of Bei'an was going to get a list of rich people, which was agreed by His Majesty the Emperor. The day before yesterday, two court officials were beaten to court for criticizing Agent Cheng Mo. They heard that they had been suffering from high fever and had not yet rescued them from King Yama. Moreover, because it was a court stick, the imperial physicians refused to treat them, so they had to go and invite a doctor.
The unlucky King of Jingzhou Liu Ze was still squatting in the imperial prison. It can be said that he had no life. When he got together with him, Cheng Mo, who was a uncle and nephew, had a new way of playing. Even the rebellion could not touch the King of Bei'an. It shows his weight in the emperor's heart. If he had joined him because of this, wouldn't he have a layer of protective clothing?
The nobles all moved, some were like Duke An Guo, trying to enter the emperor's sight again, and some wanted to use this to move around with Cheng Mo, but their goals were different, but their actions were the same.
So, when the nobles met, the way they greeted changed: "Lao Zhang, have you gone to talk to the King of Bei'an?"
"Just going. Where are you?"
"I'm going to go, let's go together."
"Go for a walk."
This time, unlike heating, installing heating equipment in your home, but you rely on the other king of Bei'an. If you have money, King of Bei'an will be useful to your own place. Wouldn't it be useful to use it? Sometimes, value of use is also capital.
