Although the Construction Office does not participate in government affairs and does not have much power, the rank is real. This time, it cannot be said that the rank of Mr. Sun's ninth-rank official is not the same as his seventh-rank official.
The rank of a concubine like Linlang is indeed not the same as the rank of Master Sun. However, the rank of Master Sun's manufacturing office is the same as the rank of Master Sun.
What’s more important is that the manufacturing office is full of fat people. After all, they are manufacturing imperial supplies for the royal family. As an official in this place, I don’t know how many wealthy businessmen will come to the door with money and ask for help from the manufacturing office. people, give them a project to do.
"In other words, uncle...will be very rich in the future?" Sun Linyun asked in disbelief after hearing Master Sun Er say that the manufacturing office was a fat job.
She really didn’t want to think about how the big house that she had called poor and a vampire would have a lot of money in the future.
If Da Fang has money, it will be more difficult for her than if she has no money.
Master Sun said: "Your uncle is an upright man, so he may not accept it."
But what he didn't say was that even if Master Sun didn't dare to accept the money, Bing Tan's filial piety is such a gray thing. He would definitely dare to collect the income. When the time comes, the big house will indeed become richer and richer, much richer than his family. But seeing the relieved expressions of his wife and daughter after listening to his words, Mr. Sun Er did not Say more, so as not to dampen their emotions.
This kind of depressed mood can be overcome by him alone. He should not let everyone in the family be depressed, otherwise the whole family will be miserable and look bad.
Of course, the main reason is that Mr. Sun Er is also a face-saving person. He does not want his family to know that his family has gradually become worse than the big family.
You must know that two years ago, when he saw that he had passed the Jinshi examination and became an official, he no longer needed the support of the big house, so he vigorously drove away the big house that he should repay, but would make him bleed, thinking that it was torn apart. With his face, he can travel lightly, and there will be no hindrances to hold him back or cause trouble.
At that time, he looked at Da Fang who was so angry but couldn't do anything about him. How happy he was at that time. He just liked to see others hate him like this but couldn't do it. Drop him.
In the blink of an eye, he had thrown him aside. Da Fang, who was supposed to stay in the mud, could turn over one day, and the method of turning over was so unique that Sun Er The master naturally broke his guard. He didn't want to admit that he was not as capable as Linlang and not as good at fighting as Linlang, so he naturally didn't want to continue talking about how great the big house would be in the future, lest he talk about it. After a long time, the family Even if a person hates Linlang to death, at the same time, he is probably thinking about why he crawls so slowly, and then questions his ability, which will affect his authority at home. This is obviously not what he wants to see. So after Mr. Sun Er talked about the functions of the manufacturing office, he didn't say much more, so as not to let his family know that Dafang was doing better and better, and they would think that he was a loser. How could he have been doing it for so long? I never got promoted.
Ever since he passed the exam, he has always been regarded as a genius in the eyes of others. Naturally, he cannot accept the fact that he is not as good at crawling as a little girl in his eldest family.
Actually, he was also curious about how Sun Linlang was promoted so quickly and how she was able to get the emperor to arrange errands for her family. You know, both of these things are not easy to do.
Although the grades of concubines in the harem are indeed different from those in the imperial court, promotion is actually similar. After all, they are all climbing up one level at a time. It is not easy for them to be promoted as officials outside. Is it possible that the palace Is it easy to get promoted as a concubine? The principles are the same.
Even if you are promoted, the key is to get the emperor to give rewards to your natal family. This is very difficult to accomplish. Just like Sun Linyun thought before, asking for rewards can easily make the emperor unhappy, so most people don't Those who dare to take the initiative to ask for it, unless the emperor takes the initiative to give it. Mr. Sun Er didn't know whether Sun Linlang asked for the reward from the first house, or whether it was given by the emperor on his own initiative.
If Sun Linlang asked for it, it means that Sun Linlang is quite good at coaxing people. After all, she asked for an errand, and the emperor did not blame her yet; if it was given by the emperor on his own initiative, it means that Sun Linlang was very good at coaxing people. Sun Linlang was more favored than he imagined.
Neither the former nor the latter is what he wants to see, so Mr. Sun Er just wants to make time pass faster and start another draft as soon as possible so that his daughter can enter. It would be good to be able to take away Sun Linlang's favor by then. If you can't take it away, if you can collect information about Sun Linlang, and then cooperate with his methods, you may be able to deal with Sun Linlang.
Not to mention that the second roommate heard that the eldest roommate had an errand and how uncomfortable he was, but he said that the eldest roommate was indeed what Mr. Sun Er thought. Soon, someone heard the news and heard that Mr. Sun was working as an errand in the manufacturing office. So some wealthy businessmen in Beijing heard the news and came to see Mr. Sun.
Master Sun was at a loss when he saw someone visiting him. You must know that although he had some money thanks to Linlang's promotion before, he was just rich. In this case, no one would come to visit him. Yes, even if someone comes, they are just walking around, mostly acquaintances visiting each other.
But the person who came this time was a wealthy businessman and a stranger. The purpose of coming was to treat him to a meal and to congratulate him on taking office.
Master Sun didn’t know the other party and didn’t want to talk to him, but the other party said that he used to work for the Construction Office. Master Sun heard what the other party said and wanted to know about the situation in the Construction Office. , so they agreed to have dinner with each other.
Not to mention, this meal really made Mr. Sun know a little bit about the manufacturing office, and he felt that this meal was not in vain.
Originally, he wanted to pay for it himself. After all, he was given so much information and asked to treat him to dinner. That would be too embarrassing.
As a result, the other party paid the money while he was going to the toilet. Mr. Sun gave him the money, but the other party did not accept it. Not only did he not accept it, he also stuffed Mr. Sun with a big red envelope and said When Mr. Sun became an official, he would definitely hold a banquet to celebrate, so he gave the gift in advance.
Master Sun heard that when officials in the capital were promoted, they would hold a banquet to celebrate. He vaguely remembered that Master Sun became an official. It seemed that he did so. He held a banquet in his hometown and in the capital. It is said that a banquet was also held.
Since you have to hold a banquet when you become an official or get promoted, Mr. Sun thought that he should follow the trend and hold one, so he accepted the gift money.
He thought it was just an ordinary gift. After all, it was packaged in a wallet and was so light. He was curious about what could be put inside if it was so light.
It was just that he was too embarrassed to show it in front of the wealthy businessman.
When the wealthy businessman left, he took it out out of curiosity and was instantly frightened. There was a one thousand tael silver note inside, which was issued by the largest bank in the city. Go If you take it, you will definitely get it. (End of this chapter)
