Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1931, wealthy marriage

This day is an auspicious day, the government of the Liao Kingdom and the government of the United Kingdom are all dressed up, and everything that catches the eye is festive red.

The British government, the entire British government is extremely busy, and the servants, maids, etc. in the house are even more busy. They have been busy for several days for the eldest lady's wedding.

This marriage was decided by the old British Duke Zhang Mao and Liao Guogong in person. It was extremely important, and it represented the marriage between the two wealthy families of the British Duke and Liao Guogong.

It is said that back then, the British Duke Zhang Mao wanted to marry his granddaughter, who is now the British Duke Zhang Lun’s sister, to Liu Jin, but at that time Liu Jin had married Xu Wan’er of Dingguo Duke’s Mansion and Li Hui’s family, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites. granddaughter.

So he didn't marry his granddaughter to Liu Jin at that time, but Zhang Mao still liked Liu Jin very much, so he took the initiative to make this marriage with Liu Jin.

When the old man was alive, he intended to arrange this marriage, but Liu Xin and Zhang Yun were still young at that time, so the old man left with regret.

Before the old Duke died, he repeatedly told Zhang Lun that when the children grow up, they should deal with this matter early. From now on, the Zhang family and the Liu family will really wear a pair of trousers.

After waiting for many years, and now finally the young lady is getting married, the entire British government is extremely happy and extremely busy.

Here in Zhang Yun's boudoir, Zhang Yun, who was dressed in a phoenix crown and Xiapei, seemed a little nervous. She couldn't help laughing at the thought of marrying Liu Xin.

The two families communicate very frequently. Liu Xin and Zhang Yun have been playing together since they were young. Because Zhang Yun is two years older than Liu Xin, when he was a child, he often pressed Liu Xin to beat him, and Liu Xin often cried when he was beaten. .

But after growing up slowly, Zhang Yun became a lady. Because she had a baby kiss, when the two met, they often blushed and looked extremely embarrassed.

"Miss, what are you thinking?"

Just when Zhang Yun was thinking about Liu Xin being beaten and crying when he was a child, Zhang Caier, the maid beside her, looked at Zhang Yun who was in a daze, and quickly smiled and whispered, "Are you thinking about my uncle?"

"Well, Cai'er, you dare to make fun of me, let's see how I deal with you."

When Zhang Yun heard this, her face turned red immediately, and she went to scratch Zhang Cai'er after speaking.

This Zhang Cai'er is also a descendant of the Zhang family, but she is only the daughter of a collateral descendant. She grew up with Zhang Yun since she was a child.

"Miss, miss, I heard that my uncle is studying at the Royal Military Academy. I guess you may not be able to beat him now."

"I'm not his enemy, so why should I fight him? From now on, we'll be husband and wife, we should love each other, and you are my personal servant girl, so I'm going to marry him."

Zhang Yun pouted and said.

For a top wealthy family like the Zhang family, it is very particular about marrying a daughter.

The dowry maids alone have a lot of specialties. There are several types of maids, dowry maids, and room maids. The status of these three types of maids is relatively high. , old women and so on, there may be dozens of them in total.

Like this Zhang Cai'er, she herself is a descendant of the Zhang family, and she has been with Zhang Yun since she was a child. This is the most personal servant girl.

A maid who is close to her and deeply trusted by her master is like Ping'er next to Wang Xifeng in the red building and Caiyun next to Mrs. Wang. They are all decent and noble maids. People who are trustworthy usually dare to joke with their master.

The main thing I am responsible for is to help my master manage money, and the other maids around me are equivalent to the role of my natal family. When I marry, at least one person can chat to relieve boredom. In addition, I can also convey to my natal family. Related information, how is this young lady doing well after she got married?

Of course, sometimes you need to serve your aunt for your master. If you can give birth to a son and a half for your master, you can become a concubine at that time, responsible for helping your master fight for status and so on.

Sometimes the master can't give birth to a child, and the child born by the personal maid may even become a legitimate son.

Tongfang maids, as the name suggests, are the maids trained by the young ladies of the rich family to serve the aunt. Sometimes it is time for these maids to work hard when the lady is inconvenient. This kind of maids are often easily become Concubine's.

As for the dowry maid, this is purely dowry like a dowry. This kind of maid usually grows up with the master from a young age. The maid who serves the master has a good relationship with the master. The dowry is dedicated to serve the master. After all, I have been more used to it since I was a child.

"Hmph~ Marry if you marry, there is no way, who made you the master, not to mention that my uncle is both talented and beautiful, and I don't suffer any disadvantages."

When Zhang Caier heard this, she immediately blushed and said.

"Aren't you ashamed~"

Zhang Yun immediately smiled and said, there are more than a dozen maidservants standing beside the two of them, and these are all going to be married together. It was chosen, and one could tell at a glance that it was a housemaid and dowry maid specially raised by the British government since childhood.

Taking a closer look, it turns out that many of them have blond faces and are not from Daming.

Since the imperial court strictly prohibited buying and selling Daming people, coupled with the fact that the living standards of Ming people have become higher and higher, the business of selling children and daughters has naturally become less and less.

But big families still need servants, maids, etc., what should I do?
Of course, it was purchased from outside. North Korea and Japan still allow people to be bought and sold. There are many people who sell their children and daughters. Many children are sold to Daming, and they are bought back by rich families to be maids and servants from childhood. In addition, the white slaves from Europe are also liked by everyone.

Many little girls were also bought from childhood, and they were raised by current people, maids and so on. Although their faces were different from those of Daming, in other respects they were out-and-out Daming people.

"Miss, uncle is here~"

At this time, a servant girl hurried in, and the time had come.

Soon, the entire British Duke was busy for a while, and Liu Xin led a mighty wedding team to the British Duke to marry Zhang Yun.

After some cumbersome etiquette, the mighty team marched from the British government to the Liao government.

There are dozens of Mercedes-Benz cars at the beginning, and there is a huge dowry right behind.

The Duke of Liao gave a dowry of tens of millions of taels of silver, while the Duke of England gave a dowry of tens of millions of taels of silver.

Boxes and boxes of gold, silver and jewelry made the strong men carrying these boxes sweat profusely and grin their teeth. It was too heavy and too heavy.

Antique calligraphy and paintings, gold and silver jewellery, jade, jade, pearl agate, all the precious items you have seen or haven’t seen are all in boxes, full of boxes, lined up in an endless stretch, as if It's like moving out a mountain of gold and silver,
More than a dozen plantations in Nanyang, more than a dozen pastures and manors in the Western Regions, Nanyun Province, and Hezhong, several gold mines and silver mines on the Golden Island, and tens of thousands of mu of fertile land in various parts of Daming.

There are also several factories, several commercial firms in various places in Ming Dynasty, a large number of stocks, real estate, shops, etc., and there are more than a dozen large boxes for these industrial documents alone.

Anything is a huge family property, enough for ordinary people to pass on from generation to generation and eat for many generations. However, this is only one of the most common dowry properties.

"Tsk tsk, as expected of the top wealthy family in my Ming Dynasty. The dowry for this dowry is simply incomparably rich. You must know that there are many vassal states and vassal states in my Ming Dynasty. The annual tax revenue may not be so much."

"Isn't it? I don't even look at who married their daughter. This is the British Duke."

"Of course it depends on who you are marrying. If you are marrying an ordinary school lieutenant or something, you will definitely not have such a huge dowry. This is the Duke of Liao and the current chief assistant of the cabinet, Liu Son of the Duke, it is completely different."

"It's the first time I've seen such a huge dowry in my life."

"Yeah, this casual thing is enough for ordinary people to eat and drink for several lifetimes."

"The last time Liu Ge's son married a wife, the scene was already huge, but it was far from the present."

"That's not comparable. That time, Liu Gong's second son married the daughter of an ordinary businessman. Of course, there is a far-reaching difference."

"If you can marry such a rich lady, you will have food and drink for ten lifetimes."

"Hurry up and dream, there is everything in the dream."

"Tsk tsk, look quickly, even the dowry maids are all stunning, and any one of them looks so good-looking, this Liu Xin is very lucky."

"I'm envious, but I can only be envious. Who would let someone have a father who is the Duke of Liao and the chief minister of the cabinet?"
