Chapter 1835

Man Bao broke his fingers and counted all the loopholes he knew. "He said that officials can't do business, but who among the officials in the court doesn't walk outside with shops hanging under their names? No matter how bad it is, relatives and friends can cooperate. Basically, as long as they don't fall down, these cooperation can go on for a long time. "

She did not shy away and said directly: "for example, there are several medicine shops in Xiao Yuanzheng's family, which are hung under the names of his two sons. Although they do not have their own medicine shops, they all have close medicine shops. Occasionally, they go to those medicine shops to hang a single seat in the hall, or help them visit some very important patients who can't get a doctor..."

"I also recommend some drug dealers for the drug shop. With these, I don't have to pay for them. I get a share every year," man Bao said. "I come from Jishi hall. Shopkeeper Zheng Da hinted that he could give me 10% of the income from the shop here in the capital several times."

Changyu and Mingda opened their mouths. Mingda asked curiously, "did you take it?"

Man Bao shook his head. "I've also been excited, but think about it carefully. With this income, I will have more responsibilities in the future. If I go elsewhere, I'm not comfortable, so I'm still Ding and Mao. Forget it."

Yin or: "but don't you go to Jishi hall from time to time? I heard from my elder sister that someone wanted to invite you out from the imperial medical department, but the imperial medical department didn't approve it. Finally, I invited you by the way of Jishi hall. "

"Eh, are you talking about the Pei lady?" Man Bao said, "I only had this external consultation last time."

She said with a smile, "she paid for the clinic. Why not go out? I would also like to thank shopkeeper Zheng Da for soliciting patients for me. This is reciprocity. How can I take money from shopkeeper Zheng Da again? "

Bai Shan said, "that's the difference between being thin skinned and thick skinned, but officials who spend more years in officialdom will become thicker if they love money. Therefore, it is impossible to expect officials to exercise self-discipline in this way. There must be rules. "

Mingda said, "the central government has clearly stipulated that officials can't do business. How can we stipulate that their servants and relatives can't do business?"

"This certainly won't work," Bai Erlang said directly without Bai Shan and man Bao's objection. "If Bai Shan wins the exam and becomes an official, but I don't win the exam, then I must go home and farm."

He said, "in addition to busy farming, I must do some business to make a living. If my relatives can't do business, what should I do?"

People:

Mingda looked at him curiously and asked, "are you still in business?"

"That's right," Bai Erlang said. "I have so much land. The grain I harvest has to be taken away. If I see beautiful silk, satin, brocade, etc. outside, I can also take it back to mianzhou and Yizhou."

That's what his father did, but his father seldom did such a thing himself. He always asked the steward to come forward. He can manage the steward again.

The water in the stove on one side boiled, making a loud noise, and bursts of meat smell came out of the pot on the top. Yan or a meal, who was about to speak, turned his head and asked, "why is there steamed meat?"

Man Bao said, "I asked my husband to bring it in today."

Changyu also smelled the kiss and took a breath: "it's really fragrant. How many bowls did you bring?"

"Three bowls, sir. I brought them all to the palace." Man Bao said to yin or, "you can eat more of this. Sir, my sister-in-law said that the nobles in the palace must not be short of oil and water, so this time she made the powder a little thicker and padded a lot of radishes under it. The steamed meat is not so greasy."

Yan or his face did not change much and said, "in fact, the same as before can also be."

Liu Huan turned and asked, "have you eaten?"

Yin or nodded, "they sent some to me during the new year."

At that time, he was surprised when he received the annual gift. It was the first time that he received steamed meat as the annual gift, but that night he ate two pieces, and the rest was eaten by his father, grandmother and sixth sister. He was very sorry.

Liu Huan was jealous in the fragrance. "Why don't you give it to me?"

Man Bao blinked and couldn't help looking at Bai Shan. He hesitated and said, "I'll send you one next time? The annual gift we give your family is not thin, isn't it? The steamed meat is worthless, and your family has a lot. Give you a bowl, can you eat one? "

Liu Huan thought so. They have a lot of family, which is different from yin or their family.

Man Bao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the fool had passed.

Seeing that they were off the subject again, Chang Yu couldn't help knocking on the table and asked, "do you want to discuss it?"

Man Bao comforted her and said, "don't worry. You can't talk about such things once or twice. Anyway, you're still a long way from getting married, and you're not in a hurry to do business."

Mingda was not in a hurry now. She took a sip of tea and saw it. She was afraid that it was true to talk about things, eat delicious food, and even chat happily.

She also turned to Chang Yu and said, "don't you want to do business. Just like me, you can take care of the fief at that time. The Wei family is noble, and the son of Wei may not adapt to your luxury."

Chang Yu said, "then we can live separately. He lives in the Wei family. I live in the princess's house. How good is it? I'm more comfortable. "

Mingda didn't expect his sister to have this idea. He stared round his eyes, and man Bao also stared round his eyes. He asked incredulously, "don't husband and wife live together?"

Chang Yu naturally said, "of course, I can't live together. Several of my sisters and brother-in-law don't live together. If something happens, just call my son-in-law to the princess's house."

Bai Shan couldn't help but wonder, "is the relationship between the son-in-law and the princess good?"

After thinking for a while, Chang Yu said, "there are bad things, and naturally there are good things."

Man Bao shook his head and said to her, "my parents haven't separated."

Bai Shan: "I feel a little sorry for brother Wei now."

Changyu:

Mingda didn't think so. She said, "this is the privilege of the Royal Princess. It's not easy for women in the world. Only you men can sleep and sleep and decide whether to go home, and women are not allowed to have their own house and place to live?"

Man Bao nodded in agreement, "yes, yes."

Bai Shan: "... I live in your house now."

Bai Erlang said, "in fact, a house for one person is still too big. We have to go a long way to play together. We really want to be comfortable. One person has a yard. We are comfortable. If we want to talk together, we can play together or come together."

Yin or: "... Do we really not talk about business between officials and royal relatives?"

Bai Shan said: "in fact, there is nothing to say about this. These problems are well known. The way I can think of at present is that close relatives cannot do business in the place where officials hold office and jurisdiction. Close relatives include relatives within three generations and relatives within two generations of wife's family; There is also a stricter tax survey to minimize tax evasion. "
