Capital.

The place where Zhao Liang lives is still the small courtyard of Chang Ergu.

But now when the business officials from Henan who were traveling to Beijing looked at the courtyard in front of them again, many people were very moved. It was completely different in just a few days.

Zhao Liang's third-rank false job cannot be named in the capital, but who doesn't know that he played an extremely important role in the "cowpox incident" that caused a sensation in the entire capital not long ago?

Otherwise, how could the emperor suddenly give a generous reward to this little prison student (the identity of a merchant cannot be even more important in the eyes of officials)?

Therefore, anyone with discerning eyes will look at Zhao Liang differently.

Because that "cowpox" would be called Zhao Liang, he invisibly gained favor from a large number of Eight Banners' powerful people, and even from the emperor. Just like Heshen and Lords today.

What is more important is the relationship between Heshen and Zhao Liang.

Many people knew before that Heshen and Zhao Liang had a strong relationship, but this "high relationship" was a bit weak. Because the status gap between the two was too huge, no one believed that Zhao Liang and Heshen's friendship would last for a long time.

Many people think that their relationship will gradually deteriorate soon.

Despite this, many officials will still not offend Zhao Liang, and countless businessmen traveling to Beijing will have different gazes with him. But they also invisibly asked everyone to look down on Zhao Liang. Because there are too many people like him in the capital.

But now it's different.

A cowpox is of great help to Heshen, who can't see it in the court? How could a person like Heshen and Lord be so smart, become unfamiliar with Zhao Liang in a short time? Doesn't that seem too affectionate and righteous?

And with such a great contribution, how much favor did Zhao Liang and Zhao Mingtang have left in Heshen and Lord?

Of course, the above are the opinions of many people in the officialdom.

——For these official people, I will not mention the close relationship between Zhao Liang and Heshen and the truth or falsehood. I will only talk about the great favors Zhao Liang had left in Heshen, which is the most precious wealth.

You should know that Heshen was the right minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the left minister of the Ministry of Revenue. The eldest of the Ministry of Revenue was Heshen’s father-in-law, and Yinglian was also in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of Justice.

Good guy, there were only six divisions in the court, and Heshen occupied three. His every move involved too many officials.

There were more gift-giving people around Heshen’s doorstep these days than during the previous birthday.

Many people saw that Heshen could not open the door, so they quietly turned their attention to Zhao Liang.

Then after rectifying the Zhao family's property, they obviously discovered a shortcoming of the Zhao family - land. Compared with the Zhao family's property, the land under his name is too little.

And are there anyone in this world who doesn’t like the land and acres?

In a very short time, September has not yet passed, and Zhao Liang suddenly saw a large number of land franchises, most of which are from the eastern part of Henan.

The number of single units of these land deeds is not large, and there are very few that exceed one thousand acres, but it is not small to add one piece, and most of them are in eastern Henan. This is a beauty for Zhao Liang to fall from the sky.

But he knew with his butt that none of the ten people who came to him with land deeds really focused on themselves.

Otherwise? Are officials giving gifts to business people? Is it a damn thing?

Heshen laughed happily when he heard Zhao Liang's 'trouble', "You pay the money and deliver the goods in the same way, you are willing to do it, and I can't find any faults in the Heavenly King. What's the matter with Mingtang?"

Heshen was so proud of this month that he lived a happy life in the court. All of this was thanks to the cowpox produced by Zhao Liang. Heshen would not forget this great kindness.

What is the matter of a mere third-rank rank false title and a few gifts?

What are these acres of land now?

Compared to what Heshen got? It’s not worth mentioning at all.

He and Zhizhai have always valued love and friendship? They will not block their friends' wealth.

And then again, those who openly do business with Zhao Liang and secretly show goodwill to him and Heshen? Statistics in the future? Take time to contact him. Isn’t that the person in Heshen’s pocket?

This time, many great things were won by one shot.

However, when Zhao Liang "receives gifts" here, it made many businessmen from eastern Henan traveling to Beijing trouble. Because they often heard people's hints, what did they imply? It imply that they also sold the land to the Zhao family.

Isn’t this a cheating father?

For these merchants, what they saw more directly was Zhao Liang's glory after he received the third-rank official title. As soon as the court gave Zhao Liang a prize, he actually gave all his wife, parents and grandparents. This was simply "the world's romance".

Many businessmen cannot see too high levels in their eyes. They will not consider the long-term relationship between Zhao Liang and Heshen, nor will they consider the influence of cowpox? What they see is Zhao Liang's third-rank official title and the imperial court's gift to his family.

You should know that businessmen accounted for the majority among the Qing court’s donation group? It was precisely because many of them donated officials that they knew the inside story of “grants” and that they were even more proud of Zhao Liang.

There are countless people in the world who donate officials, but very few of them have gifts from their families, parents and elders.

This is the only example of Zhao Liang.

So let them visit Zhao Liang and deepen their connections? These people are very happy.

They had done this even before that.

But this does not mean that these people are willing to sell the lifeblood of their family to the Zhao family.

Field occupies a very special position in Chinese society.

But the situation is better than others, so some people can withstand the pressure? Some people can't withstand the pressure.

"Everyone comes, Zhao has not been able to greet you? Please forgive me." Zhao Liang stood at the gate of the courtyard and greeted everyone.

"Uncle Zhao, can't be called?                                                         �

"Yes? Yes, you are our benefactor."

More than a dozen people replied to Zhao Liang's words in a mess, and they did not calm down until they sat down in the hall, and everyone looked at Zhao Liang.

Before, Zhao Liang did not take the opportunity to lower the price when he bought their land, but it was a little higher than the market price, which is really rare. Although these people sold the land to Zhao Liang like cutting their flesh, they did not have much disgust towards Zhao Liang. Some people even think that Zhao Liang is very good.

Zhao Liang couldn't see through the hearts of these people in front of him, but he felt that some of the people in front of him would have opinions and complaints about him in his heart. This is human nature.

But he knew even more that even the worst relationship would become friendly in the face of real interests. Just like Sino-US relations in the 1970s and 1980s, are they very friendly to each other soon in the face of the threat of this bear?

Now some of these people have secretly complained about him, but when the "real gold and silver" are placed in front of them, no matter how big the complaint is, it will immediately turn into a dog-licking dog.

So it doesn’t matter what the real attitude of these people are now. What’s important is that the Zhao family has established a ‘relationship’ with them in previous transactions, and there is already a bond.
