Chapter 33
After everyone's emotions were completely calmed down, Ji Song waved to Ji Ren to signal him to go out. There are some things that juniors like them can't know.
Ji Ren also knew that it was inappropriate for him to stay in this important place of the ancestral hall, so he saluted Ji Song and the elders, turned and left, closing the door gently as he left, as if he was worried about disturbing everyone.
"Ji Ren is a good kid, he is not very old, but he is very calm, he is a good seedling, Brother Song, you can figure it out!
If there is a chance, wait a few years to recommend him, and go to be a small official first, and it will depend on his fortune to succeed in the future. "
Surprisingly, the second uncle did not say what happened just now, but affirmed Ji Ren's performance.
"That's right, I don't care who it belongs to."
"Shut up! Don't be ashamed. You are shameless for blatantly seeking personal gain. It's really embarrassing!" Before the third uncle finished speaking, he was sprayed back by the second uncle. He wanted to pay back, but he thought The shadow of his youth shrank his head and chose Congxin.
The second uncle is very satisfied with the attitude of the third brother. Although he is old, but the old man's seniority is here, what's the matter with you?Dare to turn the world upside down?
Don't think that if you have a grandchild who is a student, you don't know who your surname is. As long as my second brother is still alive, you will not be able to shake the sky.
Everyone has long been used to these two living ancestors, who made them grow old!
Old people over eighty in the Tang Dynasty are Renrui, and all criminal laws are useless to them. It can be said that there is no taboo!
Ji Song saw that there was no way they could continue like this, so he shouted helplessly: "Uncle."
Hearing Ji Song calling him, the second uncle finally stopped bombarding the third uncle, squinted at him and said, "I'll settle the score with you later!"
Afterwards, he said to everyone in the hall: "Don't spread this matter in advance, if anyone goes out to talk nonsense except for you, don't blame me for using family law.
Ji Bo, Ji De, Ji Lu, and Jiming stay here, everyone else should go out! "
The second uncle didn't explain anything to everyone, and waved them away, leaving only the four people who took care of the family affairs.
Ji Bo and Ji De are Ji Song's second and sixth uncles, who manage Ji's paper-making workshop and perfume workshop respectively, and they are regarded as the core figures.
The paper-making workshop Ji Song is not on the bright side, but is jointly owned by Prince Qin's Mansion. The workshop is also located in a manor of King Qin, and has been selling cheap paper to the outside. In recent years, King Qin's Mansion has made a lot of money. The reputation and the rich money made the prince jealous, but no one knew that this was the property Ji Song sent to the King of Qin.
Ji Ming is the shopkeeper of the family, he is from a collateral lineage, he has a good business talent, and some later theories given by Ji Song make him like a fish in water in business.
So Ji Song asked him to take care of the sales, and he never let Ji Song down.
Ji Lu is the descendant of the second uncle, and his father is the son of the second uncle, but unfortunately, he passed away before forty, and it was the second uncle who brought him up.
Ji Lu was in charge of the guards of the clan. After Ji Song was ennobled, he had ten guards. These were taken care of by the imperial court and had a certain salary every year.
Wei Bang, who came to announce the decree, asked Ji Song to submit his own bodyguard selection after accepting Ji Song's , Ji Song selected ten veterans who were his father's subordinates as bodyguards and reported them to him. These people were all from Jiangjia'ao, and some were even members of the Ji clan. They were also Ji's most reliable candidates.
Ji Ming is the leader of these ten guards. He is also responsible for training the young people in the clan. He is also the martial arts teacher of Ji's Academy. He is the backbone of the family. His importance is self-evident!
"Brother Song, is there any possibility that the matter of my Ji family's lineage may be leaked?"
Hearing this, Ji Song immediately understood what the second uncle meant. Although his family lineage was not very prominent, it was still a bit eye-catching.
Although no one will criticize you now, you are a little baron without a title, and you have your own family lineage. To put it bluntly, you are not worthy of virtue.
You must know that the lineages of many big families in the present world are counted from the Han Dynasty.
But now you are a baron with no reputation, and you were a leader of Guizhou who was nothing before, but you have the complete lineage they dream of, how can this make them feel bad?This is to be hated.
That's why there was the question just now. Ji Song thought for a while and replied, "I'm afraid it can't be done. This matter was handled by County Magistrate Yao, and it's impossible for him to do it himself. No one knows how many people know about it."
"That's it!" The second uncle didn't read much, but he has lived for a long time, what has he not seen? Although I don't know what specific harm this incident will have on my family, it is definitely not a good thing for the current Ji family, so I hesitated!
"Second uncle, this matter is actually not as serious as you think. It is indeed surprising that our Ji family has a complete lineage, but it is not uncommon in other families.
Furthermore, there are no taboo characters among our ancestors, even if people know about it, it's no big deal.
Most importantly, how many people believe this?My Ji family is a small family that has only been prosperous for three years, others may just take it as a joke! "
Ji Song's words did not dispel the old man's worries. He frowned, thought for a while and said, "Brother Song, although you are precocious, your heart is sinister. It doesn't mean that if you don't provoke others, others won't trouble you. The most uncommon thing in the world is those villains, when they are jealous, no one knows what will happen.
Our Ji family is weak at this time, although it is an honor to have a complete lineage, there is no need to publicize it everywhere.
In this way, the clansmen only say to the outside world that we are just a small clan living here in the former Qin Dynasty, and we don't know the truth of the previous fact, this is also true. The real genealogy is in the Qinling Mountains, and only the patriarch's line knows the specific place. "
When Ji Song heard the old man's words, he immediately sighed in his heart. It is true that there is an old man in the family. If there is a treasure, sometimes living a long time is the greatest victory. The second uncle has never read any books, but with his rich life experience, he is very happy. Make the most profitable choice quickly, which is impossible to read no matter how much you read.
As for the whereabouts of the family tree, only the patriarch knows, Ji Song immediately thought of the ancestral brocade scroll, the contents of which he has not figured out until now, maybe the whereabouts of the family tree is there, but he has not found a way yet That's all.
"Okay, then do it in your old way!" Ji Song didn't hesitate, the sooner this matter happened the better, so that he could take the initiative.
After the matter was settled, everyone relaxed, so Ji Song talked about another matter: "You four should also talk about what you have gained in the past few years, so that everyone can know what they have learned in the future."
The four of Ji Bo looked at each other and knew that this was about to take stock of Ji's family fortune. Thinking of this, they became energetic and eager to try.
