My father-in-law is Kangxi

Brother Jiu didn't accept the order, and handed it directly to Shu Shu, with a displeased expression on his face, he said, "Could it be that someone has misunderstood the wounded soldier's money?"

It is true that the Eight Banners are the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, but this foundation is not being used right now, and the Green Camp is the pillar of stability in the world.

Shu Shu's family is the Dutong Mansion, and he knows that the imperial court treats the soldiers very well, not only for the Eight Banners soldiers, but also for the green battalion.

Every year, the money used by the imperial court to raise soldiers accounts for [-]% of the tax, which is the soldiers' salary and pension money.

Last year on her southern tour, when she passed by Green Camp, she heard Komatsu mention specific pension policies.

If you die in battle, you will directly pay your family members a three-year full salary, and arrange for a son to be included in the army register to eat.

If there is no son, parents and wives will be half-paid for the rest of their lives.

If I am disabled, I will also arrange for a son to serve as a soldier and eat food. I have seven and a half to 30 taels of Anjia silver, and three buckets of rice every month until I die.

Shu Shu said: "It shouldn't be because of being ignorant of money and rice, but because of the medical expenses."

Three buckets of rice can only barely feed the hunger, cannot feed his wife and children, and have no ability to recuperate.

Shi Zongbing subsidizes the remnants of the soldiers, it should be subsidizing family money or medical money.

No wonder he didn't have the nerve to find the Dutong Mansion as a middleman. This is because he knew that Brother Jiu had made a fortune.

Brother Jiu snorted softly: "Is the master a fool? Why wait for him to eat the big family!"

Shu Shu carefully looked at the list above.

There are three famous Jiangxi teas, Yongxing Tea Brick, Anyuan Tea, and Lushan Tea. There are also two kinds of dried mushrooms from Qianshan Mountain and dried shrimps from Poyang.

Shu Shu sighed, handed it to Brother Jiu and said, "It's all useful, please see."

Even though she knew that a rule should be established and the purchases should be stopped immediately, she couldn't bear to start with Mr. Shi.

Brother Jiu looked at it briefly, thought for a while, and said: "They are all tributes that are not easy to buy at ordinary times, let's keep them, but this is the last time, I can't always be a big fool, insisting on being stared at A few mouthfuls."

The second-rank general soldier, to be able to do this for money, also shows that he is an upright official.

Otherwise, where can't you make up thousands of taels of silver?

The husband and wife have ample money, they are not short of money, and they are not worried.

Shu Shu didn't object, but said: "This is also misunderstood. They thought that our family bought special products from other places at a high price. Tomorrow, I will ask He Yuzhu to tell the outside world that there is nothing missing, and I will not buy anything."

Brother Jiu nodded, took a look at Shu Shu, and said: "Don't worry, I know the importance, and I still understand the principle of 'gratitude comes from above'."

He is not a big brother, and he doesn't need to run the military forces.

These disabled veterans are not only in the green battalion, but also in the Eight Banners, and now they are at the bottom.

Compared with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Eight Banners need workshops and factories to accommodate these disabled veterans.

But he just thought about it and let it go.

It's still the same sentence, it's not something he should worry about if he is not in his position.

The top and bottom officials of the Ministry of War, as well as the Yamen of the Eight Banners, have people who should worry about this.

The next day, it was not He Yuzhu who went to the residence of these two adults, but Fu Song took the accountant there.

Here, the Gao family only bought snuff bottles and agarwood, which was calculated as twice the market price of silver, and then deducted 12 taels of silver from Dendrobium to pay.

Yes, Fu Song came here today and brought two cans of dendrobium.

Plus yesterday's can, it is 12 taels of dendrobium.

For those who have no relatives and no reason, it is better to have a clear account, so when the settlement is made, the one from yesterday is included in the calculation.

Gao Chengjue, the governor of Guangdong, has now been transferred to the governor of Anhui, and hurriedly said: "I can't do it, I can't do it, I was just asking for medicine, so I bothered Jiuye."

It seems that the governors of the two provinces were transferred at the same level, but from the remote Guangdong and Guangxi to the south of the Yangtze River, it can be regarded as a promotion.

But Fu Song was not polite, he straightened his chin, and said coldly: "Sir Gao, don't evade, Master Jiu said, only these two times, there will be no fourth time."

Gao inspected and flirted.

He really didn't go for the "double price", but he also knew Brother Jiu's scruples, and he didn't want to be suspected of blackmailing courtiers.

He was fortunate that the agarwood he brought back was only one catty, and there were only five snuff bottles, otherwise the money would be too hot to collect.

After it was converted into silver, he had to take out another one or two or eight silver coins to make up for Dendrobium's account.

Afterwards, Fu Song went to Shi's house again.

This time I bought a lot more things, almost everything on the list was bought.

When seeing Shi Ruhuang, Fu Song also had no good face, still showing arrogance, and said: "Master Jiu said, it's the last time to come to your lord, it's true that Master Jiu has money, but he's not a fool. Taking advantage of the fire to rob is not kind!"

Holding the 800 taels of banknotes, Shi Ruhuang felt heavy in his heart.

He was rushing to take advantage of it, but he didn't expect Brother Jiu would really pay twice the price and wrap up these things!

Just thinking that it is higher than the consignment price is good.

He felt burning hands, and was thinking about finding some reason to retreat halfway, when Fu Song had already mounted his horse, beckoning people to leave.

Brother Jiu suffered such a "big loss", so he had to report to the imperial court.

He took the two lists and went directly to Qingxi Bookstore to meet them.

The position surnamed Gao has already been confirmed, but the position surnamed Shi has not yet been determined.

If because of this matter, the future is delayed, then he really can't bear it.

He has been in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for three years, and he can understand that there are so many corrupt officials.

Even if you don't know about greed, you can still lose a lot if you change the means.

People like Shi Ruhuang who are not very greedy and look poor are rare.

Kangxi didn't know that elder brother Jiu had "purchased" with two local officials again, so he was a little surprised to hear that elder brother Jiu came to see him.

Originally, I thought Brother Nine was always squeamish and would take a few days off as an excuse to recuperate.

"Let's pass it on!"

He nodded and said to Liang Jiugong.

Liang Jiugong responded and brought people in.

Brother Nine was honest, holding two folding pages in his hand.

Kangxi saw his guilty conscience and wondered, what could be wrong?

I went out for half a day yesterday, and in the afternoon I passed to the imperial physician, and I didn't have time to go out and wander around.

Brother Nine looked at Kangxi sincerely, and said, "Ama Khan, my son came here today to admit his mistake."

Kangxi snorted coldly: "What did you do again?"

Brother Nine hung his head: "My son seems to be driving up prices. I heard that the prices of Dendrobium and Notoginseng in the city have risen in the past few days. If it delays ordinary people's medicine, it is really my son's fault."

Kangxi: "..."

It is true that the upper and lower efficiencies are effective, but Brother Nine does not have that much influence in the capital.

On the other hand, he has been told that the imperial physician concocted dendrobium tea, and he has been drinking this for the past few days, and even mentioned the health-preserving benefits of dendrobium to several senior scholars of Shangshu.

This time, Brother Nine seems to be taking the blame...

Seeing that brother Jiu was really guilty, Kangxi was in a strange mood, coughed lightly, and said: "You also made an unintentional mistake, just change it..."

Brother Jiu nodded to be taught, and said: "My son has a long memory, and there is no fourth time. If someone comes to deliver a post, he will directly return the post and tell the other party that there is nothing to buy. If they bring any good things, If you want to exchange money, you can go directly to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and if the Ministry of Internal Affairs needs it, it will be settled according to the market price."

Kangxi felt something was wrong, pointed to his hand, and said, "Is this the second time, the third time?"

Brother Jiu didn't deny it, and handed over the two forms, saying: "It's my son who bought the soil right away. I guess I was misunderstood. I thought I'd quit the post, but it turned out that there was something inside the inquiry. , my son was relieved."

As he said that, he talked about how he received the post yesterday and later asked He Yuzhu to withdraw the post.

Needless to say about filial sons here, everyone has parents, and the shortage of Dendrobium has indeed something to do with Brother Jiu.

Chief Shi here, brother Jiu just said a few more words.

"I should have set the rules directly, but my son couldn't bear it for a while, and he is also a second-rank official. If he has the cheek to beat Qiu Feng back, he can't let people lose..."

Kangxi listened, his face darkened.

I only heard that the prince Xungui blackmailed the minister, but I never heard that the minister "blackmailed" the prince's elder brother against his will!

No matter what position you take, this is disrespectful.

He looked at Brother Nine, frowned and said: "Since you know you are taking advantage, you just kick him out, why are you still indulging?"

Brother Nine said: "It's not connivance, my son asked Fu Song to go over and discipline someone, and I made it clear to that person that there will be no next time."

Kangxi: "..."

So the money has been given, but it has to be superfluous, and the favor has not yet fallen? !

He looked at Brother Nine and pondered: "This is a member of the Crown Prince's family, are you concerned about the favor of the Crown Princess?"

Brother Jiu knew that he nodded at this time to save trouble, but he still shook his head and said: "My son thinks that although this man is thick-skinned, he is not a corrupt official. For the livelihood of a pawn, I am willing to put down my face and follow my future to seek camp..."

"Just this time around, if you suffer a loss, take advantage of it. It's like burning incense and worshiping Buddha. It accumulates blessings and blesses Khan Ama with endless life, the emperor's grandmother will never grow old, and the empress will live a long life. I also bless Fengsheng and the others. big……"

Kangxi listened, his expression relaxed, and he said: "Those remnant soldiers are not veterans of the green camp, they are the armored servants of the Shi family. If the native places of the green camp soldiers are all in the same place, they won't follow them back to Beijing..."

Brother Jiu showed surprise.

"That's the slave he raised himself!?"

There was a tangled face on his face, and he felt that the other party was still taking advantage of him.

Kangxi looked at him, snorted coldly, and said: "If you only know half of what you inquire about, you will make decisions."

Brother Jiu frowned and said, "Then why is it so shabby? He Yuzhu inquired yesterday and said that those people's food and money are provided by Shi's family. Isn't it possible for the servants of this household to open an account if they have made contributions? To open an account, the house will be divided into flag fields. , why does the host need to subsidize the food and drink?"

It is also an old custom of the Eight Banners that the people under the household are servants.

For example, Komatsu's Ama Heishan was born as a servant.

Kangxi's complexion was not good. It was clearly stipulated in the "Eight Banners Shulu" that banner property was not allowed to be resold, but he remembered clearly the registration documents of the Eight Banners Division of the Ministry of Households.

There has been a flag production business for a long time.

More and more people have lost their banner property, and have become poor households in the capital. Their livelihoods are difficult, and those who are fed by their masters are still lucky...
