Heaven's Martial Fate

Chapter 870
It is difficult for outsiders to understand the strength of the alliance of interests of the four major families in Jinling.

Of course, internal conflicts are also inevitable.

During the heyday of the Ningrong Second Mansion, it should have become the boss of the four major families.

However, following the abolition of the crown prince, the Ningrong Second House suffered unprecedented heavy losses, and the Wang family and historians wanted to compete for the position of the boss.

Obviously the Wang family is superior, and through the marriage, most of Rongfu's connections in the army are tilted towards the Wang family's prince Teng.

Wang Ziteng is a powerful character, but are the two princes of the historian bad?
Especially Zhongjinghou Shiding, who was able to win the title of marquis forcibly by relying on the military exploits on the frontier battlefield in the peaceful years, would his ability be poor?
To put it bluntly, it should be the result of Mrs. Shi's deliberate suppression because she was worried that the historians would take advantage of this to soar into the sky.

Of course, there may be other factors in it, and outsiders can't figure it out at all.

But since then, the relationship between historians and the other three schools has become more and more indifferent. This is an indisputable fact.

Judging from the results, without the full support of the contacts in the Rongfu army, the Shi family and the two marquises were also very unsatisfactory.One is in the Dudu Mansion of the Five Armies, and the other is in the Ministry of War. Both are unimportant errands, just like dawdling.

In the story of the Red Chamber, when the remaining three of the four major families in Jinling all collapsed, leaving only the historian alone to support them, the historian chose to withdraw in time to preserve his status as an official.

The so-called "entrust local officials" is to automatically retreat from the capital, just like Wang Ziteng now.

In the era of feudal ethics, the capital was the center of power for Dagan.

Only officials who have a firm foothold in the capital can be called dignitaries.

Why in the officialdom, there is a saying that Beijing officials meet with local officials at the junior level?
There is a basis for that. As long as ordinary officials can gain a foothold in the capital, even if their lives are not very affluent, they are not happy to let them go elsewhere.

Once it is released, it will not be so simple to return to Beijing without a solid backing.

Unless the political achievements are outstanding, or the situation is met, others can't say much to refute, otherwise basically they can only work in the local area until they are appointed as imperial officials.

Just like Wang Ziteng right now, he was a third-rank general in a province and belonged to a local military leader, but that was all.

If he wanted to go one step further and become the deputy general of the second rank, he could only wait for the outbreak of war, or for him to be transferred to the field army.

In other words, a certain historian in the story of the Red Chamber, a certain Hou Ye, voluntarily withdrew from the power center in the capital and became one of the leaders of the local army.

No one can say for sure whether there will be time to continue the glory after leaving a Marquis who is struggling to support.

Of course, following Jia Rong's crossing, Ning Rong's Second Mansion showed signs of revitalization, and easily became the boss of the four major families again, but the situation was different.

Before, the two princes of the historian family were unhappy that Wang Ziteng was the boss and took the initiative to alienate the other three families, but there is no need to do so at this time.

In particular, the Ning Mansion has a lot of money, and the Rong Mansion has risen rapidly in the officialdom. As the nephew of the old lady's natal family, naturally he will not let go of the opportunity to get close.

It's easy to get close again. When holding a festive banquet in Rong Mansion, take the initiative to be more active. What is the old lady not clear about?

After coming and going, the relationship that was originally estranged became closer again.

After getting acquainted with it, Jia Rong realized the embarrassment of the historian, and it was impossible to be careless.

Efang Palace is three hundred miles away, and it cannot accommodate a history of Jinling!

Look at the doggerel describing Jinling historians, Nima only has the word embarrassing throughout.

Isn't it just that there are so many people?

It's fine if there are many talents among them. The key point is that the four major families in Jinling are all alike, and they are not good at nurturing the younger generation.

But there are too many people in the clan, and the two Marquis who are carrying the flag, no matter how rich their families are, they cannot withstand the support of a group of poor relatives.

In order to avoid being poor by the poor relatives of the clan, the Shijia Shuanghou lived a poor life of diligence and thrift for the family.

There is no way, only if it is not easy for the poor relatives to see the two masters, they will not think about relying on the two masters to survive.

In fact, the Shijia Shuanghou was extremely short of money and connections, and even reached the point where he was a bit hungry.

There is no way, even if many poor relatives in the clan know their difficulties, but every time a clan member comes to the door, they must show something, right?
If there are too many times, the income of the two princes of the historian family is average, and they can't support it at all.

If it weren't for the solid foundation left by Mr. Shi at the beginning, I am afraid that the two princes of the Shi family would be eaten and bankrupt by their poor relatives.

Under such circumstances, facing Jia Rong, who was very good at making money, the Shijia Shuanghou didn't put on airs of elders at all, and they were all very warm and polite.

Even, in order to help the clansmen have a job to eat, they even came to ask Jia Rong for a chance to let the Shi family members help transport the coal dug out of the coal mines in Jin Province.

Because of her cautious personality and the fact that her relationship is basically in the army, Empress Shi Jiashuang's relationship with the local area is not so sincere.

If there is any kind of business that comes with money, generally no one will come to seek cooperation.

If someone came to seek cooperation, I am afraid that the Shijia Shuanghou would be the first to refuse.

For example, in some labor-intensive industries, either they can't get involved, or they are purely working hard, and they really have no face to introduce them to the tribe.

No wonder Shi Xiangyun complained that the Shi family's life was not easy. Compared with the extravagant Rongfu life, both the quality and the treatment were far worse. It is understandable that the little girl's family couldn't hold back.

After all, she is a daughter of the Marquis Mansion, and her quality of life and standard are not as good as those of the maids in the Rong Mansion, so she can't balance herself in her heart.

After knowing the embarrassing situation of the historian, Jia Rong didn't make fun of it, or have any other bad intentions, but felt that the two Shihous would not manage it.

In this era of patriarchal clans, the clan's restraint on the clan is unimaginable to future generations, and the clan's feelings for the clan are also quite amazing.

As long as the organization is proper, historians can participate in many high-risk and high-profit industries, and they are quite competitive.

At least, you don't have to worry too much about the betrayal of the clan's children. The price is not usually high, and this alone is quite good.

Jia Rong introduced the business of transporting coal to Shijia Shuanghou, and at the same time, the wharf handling business in Tongzhou, which was enough for the Shi family to form a large-scale transportation team.

It is also for this reason that the Shijia Shuanghou are very grateful to Jia Rong. They actually protect the interest group of the four big families in Jinling even more than the Wang family and the Xue family. At the same time, they are also staunch supporters of Jia Rong, and this time is no exception.

In the VIP box at the Tongzhou polo field, Jia Rong explained her intentions and ideas, and Shi Ding, the loyal Hou Shiding on behalf of the historian, immediately agreed...
