Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1914, this small family can only be a concubine

The Chen family, after learning that Liu Da is the son of Liu Jin, the chief minister of the current cabinet, the attitude of the Chen family has naturally undergone a [-]-degree change. Even Chen Xue was called out and sat next to Liu Da.

Chen Pingan and Qian Shi looked at Liu Da and Chen Xue who were sitting together, and they liked it more and more.

Originally, she also said that her daughter didn't know that she and that wild boy secretly made a private decision for life, so she was very unhappy, even very angry.

Now that he knew Liu Da's identity, and Liu Da himself had a decent appearance, he was naturally satisfied, and at the same time, he was a little worried.

Although my family is considered a big family for ordinary people, compared with Liu Jin, a top wealthy family of Ming Dynasty, it is a small family.

Whether the other party will look down on your family is also something to worry about.

Especially since everyone knew that the powerful families were often married to each other.

The Dukes of Cheng, Yingying, and Ding are often married, and they are already intertwined and connected. Liu Jin is the Duke of Liao, and he is still an iron rice bowl earned by his own ability.

The two wives of Liu Jin, one is the younger sister of Ding Guogong Xu Guangzuo, and the other is the granddaughter of the former Minister of Rites, Fu Han. They are both rich and powerful families of the Ming Dynasty. The real wealthy family is far from a small family like the Chen family. Small households can be compared.

"Nephew, why did Mr. Liu arrange you to go to the South African colony?"

"This South Africa is thousands of miles away from our Ming mainland, and it's in a wild place like Africa. It's not a good place."

When Chen Pingan called Liu Da, the name changed, and he called "Xian nephew".

"To tell you the truth, uncle, our family is the largest shareholder of the South African colonial firm. This South African colony is one of the most important industries in our family. My father intends to entrust this property to me, so he also sent it to South Africa. To strengthen our family's control and influence over the South African colonies."

Liu Da thought about it and said it straight.

It is not a secret that Liu Jin is the major shareholder of the South African colonial firm. There are many people who know about it, not only the South African colonial firm, but also Liu Jin of the Western Union firm. He also owns quite a few shares in many firms. For example, the Chaling colony of the Li family and the Persian Gulf colony of the British government, which are now booming because of oil, Liu Jin all accounted for half of the shares.

"It turns out that it is indeed time to send the family's children to take care of it."

After hearing this, Chen Pingan immediately understood that it was not just so simple to take care of, but he would definitely inherit this huge colony in the future.

The South African colony, this is now the largest overseas colony, and it is also the richest colony.

Chen Ping's dream is also to go overseas to get a colony to pass on to future generations. However, considering the current family business of the Chen family, this is still very difficult. The key is that the overseas colonies have been divided up. It is very difficult to get involved, unless there is a means to reach the sky, otherwise it is basically impossible.

However, Liu Jin directly passed on such a huge foundation to his son, the largest owner of the South African colony. This South African colony has a huge area, extremely rich resources, and a very developed economy, even with a population of nearly [-] million.

Such a colony, as long as it is well managed, will become an independent kingdom in the future, and it will be a precious foundation that can be passed down from generation to generation, which is far from being measured by money.

The two brothers Chen Hui and Chen Long who were nearby were also slightly surprised when they heard this.

They have heard a lot about the South African colony for a long time. They heard that the South African colony was brought down by Liu Jin, the chief minister of the cabinet, and many noble and powerful families.

Now I am shocked to hear that Liu Da will go to South Africa in the future to take care of such a huge foundation.

Compared with Liu Da, his two brothers running factories and commercial firms are just like small troubles.

Liu Da sat in the Chen's house for a whole morning, and was forced to keep him for lunch before returning home.

After thinking about it, Liu Da felt that his father Liu Jin might be the one who opposed him the most.

There have always been many rich and powerful families who have wanted to marry their in-laws with the Liu family, but Liu Jin has never responded. Others have already become fathers when they are sixteen years old, but Liu Jin requires his own children to pass the time. Marriage after the age of [-] is considered to be a real adult only after the age of [-], and it will not damage the body.

Now that he went to talk to his father about this matter, Liu Jin would definitely object, and Chen Xue's family was not a wealthy family, maybe his father would also object to it.

So Liu Da first went to his mother, Li Zhen, and was going to talk to his mother about this matter.

"Liu Da~"

"Where did you go at noon?"

When Li Zhen saw her eldest son come back, she also hurriedly asked with concern.

"Go see my classmate."

Liu Da didn't know how to speak.

"Well, I'm going to South Africa soon, and it's time to say goodbye to my classmates and friends."

Li Zhen didn't object to her son going out to play, and it would be a good thing to make more friends, the key is not to be a friend, or to bring down her precious son.

"You seem to have something to say?"

Seeing her son's hesitation to speak, Li Zhen thought for a while and asked.

"Yes, mother~"

"I have a female classmate. I like her very much, and she likes me too. I want to marry her."

Liu Da was silent for a while, but also mustered up the courage to speak.

"Yeah~"

"That's a good thing."

When Li Zhen heard this, she immediately laughed happily.

When the son grew up, it was time to start a family and start a business. Others were already fathers when they were sixteen, but Liu Jin didn't talk about marriage with his son.

I don't know how many rich and nobles who want to marry with their own family, and there are all kinds of daughters. Li Zhen herself always pays attention to this aspect, and is thinking about finding a daughter who is satisfactory for her son. .

"Whose lady is the other party?"

"I'll send someone to come to propose marriage later."

Li Zhen smiled and said, the son has grown up and has a sweetheart, so as a parent, he naturally has to help make things better.

"Her name is Chen Xue. She is a classmate of mine in middle school. Her family runs a business and a factory."

Liu Da was also overjoyed when he saw that Li Zhen agreed immediately, so he said hastily.

"Chen family?"

"The Chen family?"

"Doing business, running a factory?"

When Li Zhen heard this, she thought about it in her mind. There are many rich families with the surname Chen, and there are many people who do business and open factories, but these are not the most important.

"Their family is just an ordinary family."

Liu Da said weakly.

"normal family?"

"That won't work, this small family can only be a concubine, not your regular wife."

When Li Zhen heard this, she immediately said firmly.

My family is not an ordinary family, it is the top wealthy family in Ming Dynasty, not to mention that the other party must also be the same, but at least it must be a big family and a well-matched family.

How can you, the daughter of a small businessman, be the wife of your own son? It's almost like being a concubine.

"Mother~"

"I just want to marry Chen Xue as my wife."

Liu Da raised his voice a little and protested.

"No~"

"Our family is not an ordinary family. Your father is the Duke of Liao and the chief minister of Ming's cabinet. In your grandfather's family, my grandfather was an official to the Minister of Rites. Your grandfather is also an official of the fourth rank now."

"Your aunt is the younger sister of Ding Guogong. You are going to marry the daughter of a small businessman now. Aren't you trying to piss me off?"

"Do you know how many people have always wanted to marry our family?"

"Duke Cheng intended to marry his little granddaughter to you at the beginning of the year, and the current Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Han Wen, also intends to marry our family, and Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Yang Yiqing, also wants to marry our family."

"Any one of them is a real rich man. Your elder brother Liu Xin will marry the daughter of the Duke of England in the future. Now you say that you want to marry the daughter of a small businessman. Aren't you trying to piss me off?"

Li Zhen resolutely rejected Liu Da's idea.

You can marry any kind of rich lady you want, there is no problem, there are too many rich and nobles who want to marry their own family, not just the rich and nobles from the local side of Ming Dynasty.

Even the princesses of those overseas feudal states and vassal kings, as long as you want, you can marry back home in terms of your own family's situation.

You're going to marry the daughter of a small businessman, that's not okay, absolutely not.

Since ancient times, marriage has been the most important thing for rich and nobles.

It's not just as simple as marrying a wife, but also a union between two wealthy families, a bond of interests, and a continuation of politics. Do you think it's the same as ordinary people?
Liu Jin went to Xu Wan'er and Li Zhen at the beginning. I remember that he got the support of the Ming military general Xungui Group and a large number of civil officials. That's why Liu Jin was able to rise to the top and sit steadily at the same time.

Without Xu Wan'er and Li Zhen, Liu Jin might be able to achieve his current position, but it must not be so fast, and it will certainly not be as stable as it is now, and no one can shake it.

This is the importance of marrying a wife. Marrying a strong wife can save countless years of struggle.

"Mother~"

"But I really only want to marry her, and I only like her."

Liu Da protested weakly.

"You are still young, do you know what liking is?"

"What's more, isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines?"

"I didn't say I wouldn't let you marry, but she can't be your regular wife, she can only be a concubine."

"I will find you a wife of the right family. The custodian is beautiful and virtuous. It will also help you in South Africa in the future. In my opinion, the granddaughter of the Taipinghou family is very good."

Li Zhen looked at her son Liu Da and said earnestly.

Men, those who are not lustful, that is, they don't understand now, but they will understand later.
