Be good, call me uncle

When will Chapter 1148 end?
The old man stood up and led everyone to salute Zhizhou.

Zhizhou is a fair, fat, middle-aged man with a round face when he smiles, and he speaks very kindly: "Oh, Master Nangong, I'm so sorry. I just took a look at the growth of jade millet on the way here. It’s too late now.”

The old man welcomed him and sat down: "Food is the most important thing for the people. This jade millet is a good thing that can fill the people's stomachs. Your Excellency cares about all the people. When you go out, you always remember to observe the growth of the jade millet. This is a blessing for the people of Yongzhou." ."

Zhizhou smiled and said: "Master Nangong has defeated me. Now the people can have good things to fill their stomachs, but it has nothing to do with me."

"This is all thanks to the Dong family master who brought the seeds back to Da Qin, our majesty who loves the people like a son, and of course, his great uncle who vigorously promotes the cultivation of jade millet."

The old man echoed: "After His Majesty ascended the throne, he reused His Highness Taishu, Prime Minister Feng, Duke Yue and King Xingyang to vigorously promote the new mulberry farming system."

"I'm afraid that within a few years, the Qin Dynasty will be able to have abundant resources and prosperity for its people. Everyone will be able to have enough food and clothing, and they will no longer have to suffer from hunger."

Master Zhizhou shook his sleeves, picked up the tea served to him by his servant, and answered with a smile: "I like Master Nangong's broad-mindedness. A large part of your Nangong family's profit depends on iron ore."

"But since the imperial court promoted the farm tools designed by Mr. Zhang for free, the Nangong family's business has been worse than before. However, Mr. Nangong did not get angry in a hurry. This is something that ordinary small businessmen cannot compare with."

The old man smiled and said: "Sir, you are ridiculous. Our Nangong family's business depends on the people. If the people cannot live a good life, there will be no money to buy our goods. In the long run, we will not suffer any loss. "

Master Zhizhou pointed at the old man and smiled very gently: "You are really interesting. If I were not so busy with official duties, I would definitely make good friends with you."

The old man used the conversation to turn to business: "Having said that, I'm really a little embarrassed. I know that you are so busy, but I have to trouble you to go to the Nangong family for business."

Master Zhizhou smiled and said: "Master Nangong is very polite. His Highness, Taishu, has already said hello. His Highness said that the Nangong family generously donated money during the battle of Guiyan City and helped hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Guiyan City. I must take good care of him." Nangong’s family.”

"Yesterday/I received another letter from Xie Changshi. Mr. Changshi told me to handle the affairs of the Nangong family well."

"Of course, even without the instructions of the two nobles, I will definitely take this trip because of the kind of person Mr. Nangong is. Mr. Nangong, please tell me, what do you need me to do?"

The old man said respectfully: "My lord, I will tell you the truth. Due to some personal reasons, I decided to separate all the Nangong family members and let them go their separate ways, so I ask your lord to be a witness."

Separating a family is a big deal. Generally, in order for a large family to be prosperous and prosperous forever, it will only condense the family into a huge force and will never separate the family.

The Nangong family actually embarked on the road of separation, something terrible must have happened, but Master Zhizhou is not a nosy.

It is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs. Regardless of whether he is clear about it, he will definitely not get involved in this household matter.

Hearing this, he smiled and said, "This is simple. Master Nangong only needs to write down the form of family division and I will stamp it."

The old man said: "Originally, I planned to divide the family property equally, and everyone would get the same share. Unfortunately, many people did not have this blessing. People left before the family property was divided."

"So I decided to donate all the shares that should have been given to them to Yongzhou Prefecture to help you build Yongzhou."

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like thunder exploding in the chamber.

The old man proposed to share equally, and everyone swung their knives at their compatriots in order to get a bigger share. Now the old man actually told them that those who died would also share equally, but that they would donate their shares to Yongzhou Prefecture?
So they killed a lonely person?

Killing is equal to killing in vain?

If they had known this, why would they fight to the death and use all the strength they had accumulated over the years to kill their own relatives?

Losing so many people is completely equivalent to weakening their power. It is really not worth the loss!
Also shocked was Master Zhizhou.

Money is used everywhere to govern the place. It is better to expect pie from the sky than to expect the government to allocate funds.

Therefore, officials like to make friends with wealthy people, provide them with some conveniences, and ask them to donate some money.

But the richer the people, the more stingy they are. If you want to pluck out a hair from them, it will cost you your life.

But officials have performance appraisals every year. If there is no one at the top, they have to rely on their performance, and performance requires money.

Many officials are forced to try to pluck a few feathers even though they know they are iron roosters.Master Zhizhou didn't expect that the Nangong family would be so happy. He looked at the empty meeting hall: "How many people are missing?"

Realizing that he had lost his words due to excitement, Master Zhizhou quickly added: "Master Nangong, although I was very happy to hear this, I also feel sad for those who died. You must show your condolences. You must take care of yourself. Mo is too sad.

The old man waved his hand: "I am already half buried in the ground. This matter can be taken for granted. You don't need to worry."

Lord Zhizhou was silent and said, "I will definitely show your Majesty's kindness and convey your kindness to heaven."

The old man said: "I don't want to gain some fame. I just hope that you can help me bear witness. If someone talks about this matter in the future, please help me explain it."

Master Zhizhou said: "It takes a raise of hands, a raise of hands."

After saying that, Master Zhizhou quickly picked up the tea cup and covered the curve of the corners of his lips.

The old man took an account book from Chang Sui's hand, looked around, and then said: "This is the account book for the family division that I drew up three days ago."

"Anyone who is a direct descendant of the Nangong family can equally share the assets of the Nangong family. Men, women, the wife who marries into the Nangong family, and the women who marry out can all participate in the equal distribution of assets."

"As I said, those who unfortunately passed away can also get a share of the family property, but I will donate the portion they deserve to the government."

"You should have almost checked your accounts, right? If there are no objections, I have already drafted the documents. Come and sign and pledge them!"

"Master Zhizhou has testified on this matter. If you have any questions, raise them immediately. If anyone dares to make an issue of the family division in the future and affect the clan members, I will never allow it! It's all written in black and white right here!"

Someone whispered in a low voice: "It's cheap and it's just a concubine? Even women can get a share of the family property. The old man is really confused."

In their understanding, the so-called equal share means equal distribution to every male, and there is no share for women.

Nangong Suisui chuckled lightly: "Second brother, did you grow your brain to make you look more like a human being? What does it mean to be a cheap concubine? The mother of the legitimate daughter can get a share of the property, but the mother of the concubine does not."

The man retorted: "When a woman gets married, she belongs to someone else's family. Why can they also share it? And those who are going to get married, won't they be able to benefit from their husband's family?"

The old man said eloquently: "Because both men and women are my father's children!"

The man immediately silenced all sounds, not daring to say another word.

Nangong Suisui knew that her grandfather's move was entirely for her.

Only a woman can get a share of the family property. When she returns to being a daughter in the future, she will not let these people take advantage of her.

The old man threw out another account book, glanced around with sharp eyes, and said coldly: "This account book records what you have done in the past three days. Don't think that you can hide it from others, I know everything!"

"I will leave this account book to Lord Zhizhou for safekeeping for the time being. If anyone conflicts over the separation of the family again in the future, all the good deeds you have done will be brought to the court."

Everyone was startled and quickly lowered their heads.

Unexpectedly, the old man would come up with this trick and hold all their handles in his hands. If they were disobedient, disaster would be waiting for them.

With this evidence in the state capital, who would dare to jump around in a short period of time?

Nangong Suisui looked at everyone sitting like quails and couldn't help but sigh that his grandfather was really amazing. He could come up with such a comprehensive method in such a short period of time.

It's just that my grandfather seems to be even more haggard. Once this matter is resolved, I have to take my grandfather back to the capital to show Mr. Baili immediately.

However, can this family separation matter be over soon?
