The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 729 It's a matter of human effort
"Nanming" has long used "Huaxia Tongbao" currency for circulation, and of course there is less messy fire consumption to become a small treasury for officials.

The fields, factories, handicraft workshops, etc. that local officials can collect taxes are all publicized. The tax rates are transparent, and it is difficult for officials to corrupt even if they want to.

Wu Xiang's two sons, Wu Sanfeng and Wu Sanfu, had come to "Nanming" long ago to seek employment. They were relatively honest and did not learn their father's business experience.

Working in "Nanming", honest and responsible people will not suffer at all. They were promoted because of their solid work and non-corruption, and now they are also county magistrates.

Wu Xiang was overjoyed to see that his two sons had made a fortune with King Nan. His family was not short of money, so he was willing to pay silver coins for his son's future.

It's a pity that in the Ming Dynasty, the only way to find civil servants for the two weak sons was the imperial examination.

Finding military positions for them, wouldn't it mean that the sons who have no military value will be sent to death now that the Ming Dynasty is in chaos?

The son lived a fulfilling life as an official in "Nanming", and his future was limitless after he had a personal relationship with Nanwang.

Wu Xiang strengthened his confidence to serve the King of Nan even more, and he was thinking of helping the King of Nan to conquer the world as much as possible.

The old friend came again and took the lead in helping refugees along the Grand Canal. Huang Sheng gave Wu Xiang enough face to invite him to the palace alone for a drink.

The wine was good for speculation, and Huang Sheng affirmed Wu Xiang's education for his sons face to face, reassuring him about the future of his sons, and told him that being an official in "Nanming" does not need to be tricky and tricky, it will be self-defeating, behave well A good official who does things has a bright future.

Wu Xiang was happy in her heart, thinking that what she had done was not in vain, she drank a few more cups unknowingly, and her spirits faded away.

He used alcohol to ask Nan Wangdao: "Your Highness, I think it's inappropriate for your highness to have too few beauties in the harem, so why don't your highness enrich the harem through folk drafts?"

Wu Xiang changed his name and called himself a minister in front of Huang Sheng, Huang Sheng readily accepted it, and also changed his address, saying: "I don't know about Aiqing, this king is busy expanding the territory, how can I bother with these trivial matters, the matter of drafting is off the table." If you want to mention it again, come, come, have another drink."

Wu Xiang rolled his eyes, thought carefully about the women around Nan Wang, and understood what Nan Wang was thinking, and asked tentatively, "Could it be that Your Highness doesn't like folk drafts?"

This Wu Xiang drank some wine and only talked about women, Huang Sheng couldn't laugh or cry.

Said: "This king really doesn't want to be drafted among the people. To do so is simply to use power to suppress others. Where is there any emotional basis and what common language is there?"

Wu Xiang wanted to flatter Huang Sheng wholeheartedly, and wanted to do something to make himself easy in the emperor's heart. He drank a cup and said: "Your Highness, I can look for the daughter of the noble family of the Ming Dynasty, and choose the one with good character and appearance so that His Highness can choose it." ?”

Huang Sheng also felt drunk, and joked: "What are princes and nobles? At least it has to be a princess in the dynasty to be interesting, hahaha..."

The speaker is not interested in the listener, Wu Xiang secretly pondered, it seems that Emperor Chongzhen has a princess who is about to leave the court, can she be a matchmaker to make her become the Southern Princess?
It is well known that the Ming Dynasty did not pay tribute to relatives, and it is also well known that the princess only married common people.

Wu Xiang thinks that Zhu Ming's royal princess marrying poor people is not worthy of respect, and the common people still pay attention to the right family, so what's wrong with the princess marrying better?
He didn't mention the matter of the draft again, he happily had a drink with Nan Wang, and when he was about to return to the capital, he tried to blow the wind and see if he could make a good marriage.

The ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty has long been put on hold, and Huang Sheng threatened the court step by step. Even the opposite sex was not allowed to be crowned king. The rules were broken, and it seemed possible for the princess to get married.

What's more, "Southern Ming" Daming is a country of brothers, and the main ethnic group is also the Han nationality. It's just that the princess of Ming Dynasty can't be canonized as a queen when she marries the King of Nan, but it's a bit difficult for her to be a princess.

It doesn't matter, it depends on man's effort, Wu Xiang has confidence in his ability to act...

Wu Xiang, who was drunk, was supported by the waiting servant back to the State Guesthouse, and the two sons happened to take leave to visit their father, and they learned that their father was so drunk with Nan Wang, and the two felt honored.

Wu Xiang, whose eyes were blurred and drunk, said to his son with his tongue out, "You are very good. Tonight, His Royal Highness Nan Wang also mentioned you two, saying that you two can be good officials, and that you will have a bright future in the future."

Wu Sanfeng and Wu Sanfu became excited when they heard the words, and asked: "Father, Nanwang can still remember our brother as such a small official, you won't be lying to us, right?"

Wu Xiang smirked, and said: "You are also a seventh-rank magistrate, how can you two really be the same as others, as long as you do not do badly, you will be promoted very quickly in the future.

But you remember, don't think about getting rich when you get promoted, our family has a lot of money, and the stock dividends alone are enough to last for several lifetimes, don't be corrupt, this is the taboo of Nanwang. "

Wu Sanfeng smiled and said: "Father, do you think this is in Daming? Officials who can be corrupted in 'Nanming' are definitely highly skilled, and they belong to wearing their heads on their trouser waists just like fighting."

Wu Xiang was surprised and said, "Son! How did you see it?"

Wu Sanfeng went on to say: "You don't know how perfect the system here is, and the common people are already used to sunny administration, and they don't treat guests and give gifts at all when they need to do things. No corrupt officials can appear alone, and the corruption of officials is actually cultivated by the common people. "

Wu Xiang was very touched, and said: "It makes sense, and it is true. My son has indeed made great progress. Alas! The common people don't give money to the officials, so how can there be corrupt officials? If they don't get filial piety, officials should do their jobs. gotta do it."

Wu Sanfu smiled and said: "Father, don't worry, we are officials in order not to waste our lives, not for money, besides, our family has enough money, what's the use of having more?"

Wu Xiang said: "That's right, that's right! Too much money is useless at all, and it's only worthwhile to be an official and benefit one side..."

Wu Xiang was really exhausted, his head felt dizzy, and he fell asleep on the bed.

Seeing that their father was already snoring, the two brothers looked at each other and left letters respectively.They are officials in "Nanhua Island", and they will go back by boat early tomorrow morning, because as a county parent official, they are busy at the end of the year and their vacation time cannot be too long.

At the end of the twelfth twelfth lunar month, the "Huaxia Navy" victory team, the soldiers who have been at sea for more than nine months, can finally spend a reunion year with their relatives.

The "New Hangzhou Bay" has a charming scenery, and now there is another good place to go. Several captured battleships are moored in the civilian port area for tourists to visit. One of them is famous in later generations. It is the spoils of attack on the English fleet. Number.
