"No wonder! No wonder!"

Father Jiang muttered to himself.

Father Jiang knew his son well. Although he was not a talent for governing the world, he had been managing the Shilong Dojo for so many years and had his own guidance. Logically, he should be a confidant of 'Shilong'.

This inexplicable Mr. Xu took the position of Jiangdu Governor's Office directly when he came, and he could even mobilize Fu Gongyou of Jianghuai Army on behalf of 'Shilong'. This trust was too great.

Now when I heard that Shilong actually praised Mr. Xu for his talent for governing the world and the appearance of a prime minister. This is definitely the future prime minister in preparation!

Father Jiang thought of a lot in an instant. He had also read many of Shilong's previous remarks. Although he did not necessarily agree with them, he had to say that they made sense.

If anyone became the emperor, I am afraid that he would not be able to resist clamping down on the aristocratic families, suppressing the clans, promoting the poor, and winning the hearts of the people. This has nothing to do with the family, but a personal position, the emperor's position.

If according to what his son said, if Mr. Xu can be recognized by the Song clan, or rather by Song Shidao himself, once the world is settled, he will be the leader of the court who is not from the Song clan!

Father Jiang's eyes flashed with a trace of heat, and he looked at his second son and said anxiously: "How old is this Mr. Xu? Is he married? Your sister is not yet engaged, let's..."

"How shameless!"

This thought flashed through the minds of countless people in an instant, but what Father Jiang could think of, who here is not a smart person, in an instant many people thought of their own daughters and sisters who are suitable for marriage. As for those who don't have it, they are already thinking of other ways.

At this moment, all alliances can go to hell! Many people said goodbye and left.

………………

After sending everyone away, Jiang Wenzheng saw that Jiang's father still looked distracted, so he was helpless and said, "Son, I have something to say."

Jiang's father calmed down and nodded, "Tell me quickly!"

Jiang Wenzheng said, "Today, Chen Zhide not only donated a large amount of his property, but also intercepted most of the property that Yuchi Sheng had plundered in Yangzhou over the years. That's why my son came back late because he accompanied Mr. Xu in the government office to clear the property."

"Do you want to follow Chen Zhide's example and donate your property?" Jiang's father heard the music and understood the elegant meaning, and asked directly.

Jiang Wenzheng nodded, and Jiang's father thought for a moment and said:

"According to what you said just now, now that the Jianghuai Army has surrendered, the South will be settled in no time. Even if the Song clan cannot rule the Central Plains, they can rule the Yangtze River and follow the example of Chen Houzhu who proclaimed himself emperor in the south."

"If you can be granted a title and a noble title in the future, it will be a profitable business! There is nothing that cannot be donated."

"Moreover, not only must you donate, but you must donate a lot, and you must be the first to donate!"

Jiang's father stood up and said viciously: "Although you are Mr. Shi's eldest disciple, I can see that he is also a person who is too lazy to take care of things."

"How you perform in the new dynasty still depends on your own efforts. At most, others will not dare to embezzle your credit for the sake of your master."

"And now you have a friendship with Mr. Xu, which means you have a relationship with the prime minister in the future. We have a friendship, and we cannot lose face. "

"What's even more rare is that you have a rare opportunity to show up in front of the future founding master. In this case, if we want to give a gift, we must give a big gift, so much so that the recipient's hands will cramp."

"We can't wait! None of those bastards are fools, and someone will definitely think of this. Send it, send it overnight, and send it directly to your master."

"Old Chen, where did Old Chen die?"

Seeing Jiang's father's excited face, the butler ran into the hall and jumped: "What does the master want?"

Jiang's father said anxiously: "Notify the accountant to sort out all the gold and silver in the house, and pack 80% of them immediately. Notify the guards in the mansion to gather, and escort them overnight with the second son."

"Dad, this...isn't this too much!" The eldest son of the Jiang family said with embarrassment.

Father Jiang wanted to slap his face and said to the housekeeper: "Go quickly, wait for me to send you off!"

The old housekeeper nodded and ran to the account office to make arrangements.

Father Jiang scolded his eldest son with a look of anger: "Can you grow your brain? Chen Zhide has given 80%, is it reasonable for us to give less? Also, Yuchi Sheng has been plundering for so many years, are we not as good as Yuchi Sheng?"

"But, but what will we eat and drink if we give so much? What will so many people in the mansion use?" The eldest son of the Jiang family said unconvinced.

Father Jiang sighed helplessly and said:

"You didn't listen to what your father said just now!"

"How much floating wealth can our family have? Some of them are land, mountains, forests, fishing boats, and shops, which are the big ones!"

"And Song Shidao was born in the Song family, which is the only family that dominates Lingnan. What kind of money has he not seen? WeWorking for a lifetime, you still can't earn as much as the Song clan earns from running a salt ship for a year."

"Even if they pluck a hair from their legs, their waists are thicker than ours. If we don't give them much, they won't take it seriously. Only by giving more, and giving away everything, can we show our sincerity and win the emperor's heart for your brother!"

"If your brother is granted a title of duke or marquis, we will be the future Li clan, Yuwen clan, etc.; if your brother can be the governor of Jiangdu for two terms, we can guarantee that our family will have no worries about food and drink for ten lifetimes, understand!"

Then Jiang's father stopped paying attention to the eldest son who was jealous to the point of insanity, and said to the second son: "Pack it up later and send it overnight. Lei Yun, that old guy, is not easy to deal with. If your junior brother Lei Shilin gets there first, you will lose points. "

Then Father Jiang said to his second son:

"When you go out tomorrow, let Lao Chen assign you a group of guards. These people are all from our family, and they are the most trustworthy and reliable. Whether you keep them by your side as guards to save your life, or send them to watch the army for you, it's all good."

"I also know your concerns! In the future, these people will be your personal guards, and you don't have to obey the orders of anyone in the mansion, including your father. As long as you are well, our family will be well. "

Jiang Wenzheng looked at his father who was completely different from the past. All his words and deeds were for his own consideration. For the first time, he felt warm in his heart. You should know that these are not enjoyed by his eldest brother.

"Son knows!" Jiang Wenzheng saluted.

Father Jiang nodded, and still said: "Regarding your sister, if you have a chance, you still have to mention it to Mr. Xu. If he doesn't mean it, forget it. If he does, your sister will be blessed in the future. Your sister will never suffer a loss by marrying Mr. Xu. "

Jiang Wenzheng nodded and said, "After tomorrow, I will find a chance to talk to Mr. Xu about it and see what he thinks."

Soon the butler came to report that the loading was complete, and Jiang's father urged Jiang Wenzheng to leave immediately.

And that night, there were many people in Yangzhou who couldn't sleep at night, and many people who were worried.
