Chapter 425: Going Astray (Monthly Ticket Adds 13 Updates)
The others were not parties involved. Just listening to the story, Zhao Hanzhang's case was solved without any problem, especially when he talked to the seventh uncle about it later. The clan members all felt that they were taking it seriously, and there was no resentment and anger in the chest of the seventh uncle. .
Together with Sanjin, he praised Zhao Hanzhang: "I would say that this child is good. She is nostalgic for old feelings and fair, just like her grandfather."
"Yes, like the old patriarch, you should be more careful if you encounter this kind of thing in the future. The old patriarch was fair and selfless when he was here. If he commits crimes outside, I think Han Zhang will be the same as the old patriarch."
"There is no need for Hanzhang to take action, and Zi Nian is not a decoration."
"By the way, where's Zi Nian? Brother Qi made such a big fuss, but Zi Nian didn't come forward?"
"It seems...not at home?"
As soon as they heard that Zhao Ming was not at home, everyone started talking, "It doesn't matter if he's not at home, it's not a big deal, just deal with it."
"Fortunately, it fell into Hanzhang's hands. If it had fallen into Zinian's hands..."
"After all, Hanzhang is a younger generation. She is only an official outside and doesn't care about family affairs, so naturally she can't do too much."
"The negotiated price is 20% cheaper, so the glass greenhouse and glass windows are worth a lot."
"I know, I also went to the Zhenbao Pavilion to see it. It's really transparent, but the price is not cheap."
"Can I ask for the price?"
The other party mentioned a price, and everyone thought it was not expensive, "It's not very expensive either."
"A window is naturally not expensive, but if you replace an entire room in the house, how much would it cost?"
Someone was good at math, and after making a mental calculation, he immediately took a breath of air-conditioning and said, "Based on the calculation of my house, it would cost 200,000 yuan to replace all the glass windows."
Everyone was surprised, "You want so much?"
"The day before yesterday, I went to the Zhenbao Pavilion and saw a set of glass cups made of ink and smoke. The cups looked more transparent than Hetian jade, but as moist as jade. I couldn't put it down when I looked at it. You know that one? How much does it cost?”
"How much?"
"Eight hundred thousand dollars!"
"There happened to be Xun's children there at that time, and the one who headed it bought it without blinking an eye."
"I've heard about it too. I heard today that he brought that set of glass cups into the garden to have a drinking contest with others."
"You guys said that there are so many treasures in Hanzhang's Treasure Pavilion, how much money can you make every day?"
"She earns a lot, but she also spends a lot, otherwise she wouldn't have used the treasures left to her by the old patriarch."
The topic became more and more eccentric, and gradually moved to the place that everyone was more interested in. At that moment, someone lowered his voice, gathered everyone's heads together, and whispered: "You said, the old patriarch left such a stroke for Hanzhang Treasure, does the clan leader know?"
"I guess he doesn't know, what about it, bet or not?"
"I bet!" someone said, "I bet he must know. If you don't believe me, we can write to him and ask him."
Everyone:...
Everyone was not fools and just spat back, "The patriarch wants to break his teeth and swallow blood just to save face. How could he not recognize it?"
As everyone chatted, the topic went further and further, and there was no way to save him. However, Sanjin quietly breathed a sigh of relief, then bowed his head and silently left.
Back home, Sanjin went directly to Zhao Hu to report what he had just done.
Zhao Hu frowned, "What are you doing to publicize this matter? Isn't it embarrassing enough?"
Sanjin persuaded him, "Master, please don't be angry. Sanniang is right. This kind of thing is based on deeds and regardless of heart. It is indeed the deposit he paid first. Now we have also received benefits. Sanniang also personally ordered The craftsmen from Cai’s side are here, which shows how much they value you.”
"I'm just angry that she threatened me in the end!" Zhao Hu said angrily: "She threatened me in the end, right?"
Sanjin could only continue to persuade, "Don't you always know that Sanniang is biased against you?"
He lowered his voice and said, "You always say that you think she wants to scare you."
Zhao Hu: "But that was before. I have been so kind to her this year. I gave her food when she was short of food, and I gave her cloth when she was short of cloth..."
"...Old Master, those three ladies have paid, it's a normal transaction."
"It's not normal at all. If I sell it to other merchants, the price will be at least half more."
"But you can't sell it, right? Who dares to disobey Mr. Minglang's words?"
Zhao Hu hummed twice.
Sanjin continued to persuade: "You are afraid of Minglangjun because Minglangjun is in charge of the affairs of the clan and our family relies on him for many things; you are afraid of Sanniang because she has soldiers and horses in her hands and is brave enough. Then why don’t you fear and fear them more deeply?”
"What happened today, if it were Minglangjun, you wouldn't even have a chance to speak," Sanjin said in a low voice, "Don't you always say that Sanniang is more terrifying than Minglangjun? Why do you want to provoke him again? Where is she?"
The anger in Zhao Hu's heart slowly calmed down, and Sanjin smiled when he saw it, "That's how it should be. You are just acting too hastily, just slow down."
The relationship between Zhao Hanzhang and the Zhao family did not deteriorate, but the reputation of respecting the talents who came to Xiping began to spread among the gentry.
After Zhao Song knew about this, he asked the mountain people to take a piece of gold to reward Sanjin. He said: "It's lucky that Lao Qi has Sanjin beside him, otherwise he would have scattered his family's work long ago."
Even Zhao Ming praised when he came back from the mine: "Three golds are good."
Zhao Ming didn't mean to let outsiders laugh, so he immediately rectified the atmosphere within the clan as soon as he came back. He directly called the owners of each house to lecture him, saying: "When you go back, restrain each household and everyone. Don't cause trouble outside. If If someone commits a crime, our Zhao family will not only not recruit people, but we will also deal with them severely, hoping to become a governor, unless you step over me!"
"We have a strong moral character. We, the Zhao family, believe in uprightness when we establish our clan. If Zhao Hanzhang dares to show favoritism to the clan members and do unjust things, I will be the first to expel her from the clan."
Everyone bowed their heads and silently responded, not daring to speak.
Zhao Ming scolded them and said: "She will leave Xiping in the near future. At that time, I will be in charge of everyone in Runan County. I will be the first to make scandals. If anyone bullies others outside, unless they are sure they can hide it from me for the rest of their lives, I will chop them off." off his claws."
Everyone knew that Zhao Ming meant what he said, so they all bowed their heads and agreed.
When Zhao Hu found out, he felt quite desperate, "This is the real wolf in the front and a tiger in the back. He was very arrogant when he was not the county guard, and he is even more arrogant now."
After Zhao Hu quietly said bad things about Zhao Ming to Sanjin, she asked, "How is the glass greenhouse with the view doing?"
"I heard that I'm already more than halfway up, and I'm almost ready."
"What about ours?"
"According to your instructions, I have put aside the matter of replacing the windows and started building the flower room. It should be completed at about the same time as the view of the room."
Good night
