What are the famous gentry of the local gentry?

Those who are willing to spend money on the villagers are the famous gentry.

The old Zhao family understood this very clearly.

This is the most simple truth of "Growing melons and getting beans," which means that only by investing can you gain something.

The Zhao family was able to advance so naturally because they spent a lot of money. And they were very prescient in spending their first money on "education".

This trick is more useful than building bridges, paving roads, and putting porridge and food.

This is nothing more than inviting fame and profit.

What many people can figure it out is that they don’t have the capital to do it, but they just can’t bear to do it.

Is it easy for the Zhao family to come? Because of its shallow foundation, spending money to buy reputation is a perfect match for their family.

Zhao Liang was so busy that he didn't touch his butt for the time being, but he knew that the foundation of the Zhao family was being consolidated and stabilized little by little.

——It is not the reputation and status of the Lao Zhao family at Longlukou in Huaining County or even Chenzhou Prefecture, but the actual power controlled by the Lao Zhao family and the population that can be affected.

Gongyi, the head of the Kang family in Ruzhou, who is about to marry, is the object that the Zhao family needs to imitate.

The latter was rich for two hundred years and was ten thousand rich. In the Ming Dynasty, Kang's family started with river transportation, and then used the current land to consolidate its capital, and the inn and money houses were the two wings. The assets of the main lineage of the Kang family were by no means comparable to that of the Zhao family.

But as a time traveler, Zhao Liang was not jealous of the Kang family's assets. As long as he had a backer, it would be easy to become the richest man in the Qing Dynasty in the past seventy or eighty years with Zhao Liang's wonderful ideas.

What are the "three provinces in wealth, boats travel six rivers", what are the "head resting on Jingyang, Chang'an, Linyi, Jinan, horses travel thousands of miles without eating other families' grass, people travel thousands of miles with Kang's fields", or the "Kang's boats traveling in the river, Kang's fields planted on the shore, Kang's horses traveling on the road, Kang's money borrowed from the house'..., etc., although the sayings show the prosperity of the Kang family, Zhao Liang really doesn't like it.

This way of getting rich is too ordinary.

Zhao Liang has too many ways to overtake.

However, the Kang family has a good reputation based on Gongyi for two hundred years, and the method of winning fame after another is definitely what the Zhao family said to learn.

Since Zhao Liang wanted to marry Kang's side branch, he not only asked Peng Gongchang to find out about the marriage partner, but he himself has also inquired about the Kang family in Zhoujiakou. Many people in Zhoujiakou know about the Kang family in Gongyi, especially merchants from Shanxi and Shaanxi.

There are also some businessmen from Heluo who give thumbs up when talking about the Kang family.

Zhao Liang privately summarized it, which is roughly good and good deeds - building bridges and paving roads, and putting porridge and medicine are all small means, and people pay money and grain to help the government provide disaster relief.

After nine out of ten years of the Yellow River, Kang paid money and food to make the victims survive. Not only did he accumulate great reputation for himself, but he also greatly pleased the government.

Now the patriarch of the Kang family, Kang Dayong, has the title of magistrate of Zhili Prefecture. His son Kang Yuncong is no more than two years older than Zhao Liang, and he also has the title of 7th-rank Wenlinlang on his head. This is much more awesome than the empty title donated by ordinary businessmen.

The Kang family also built the Gongxian Holy Temple, which greatly pleased the local scholars, and there was nothing that officials disliked.

When the Yellow River broke its dam, the Kang family still paid a lot of money, and they were happy to lose money to build the Yellow River embankment.

These are sensational acts of kindness throughout the Central Plains!

While greatly improving the reputation of the Kang family, it also greatly increases the self-esteem of the Kang family.

Not to mention that the Kang family also occasionally "eliminates" the accounts owed by the tribesmen and villagers.

In this way, the Kang family's reputation is not good if it is officials and the people, and far away from each other?

Although they were all made with money! But the Kang family is obviously good at smashing money, right?

"The Zhao family needs to study hard!"

Just as the ultimate moves released by the Lao Zhao family, it was soon the end of the year. Zhao Liang was busy all the time, and he was going to go to Zhoujiakou to register the accounts.

It’s the end of the year, whoever merchant wants to make accounts, right?

Peng Gongchang also sent a reply, and Zhao Liang simply browsed it. After reading it, he only had one meaning left in his mind. This eldest lady from the Kang family is really amazing.

She was involved in things inside and outside the Kang family, and she was extremely brave. She dared to take the life of the aunt who became a little restless after giving birth to a boy. She dared to go to Yuzhou Pharmacy to settle accounts with a light car!

"sharp!"

This makes people give you a thumbs up.

Moreover, seeing that the Kang family's eldest sister took action decisively because her half-brother's mother became restless and honest, Zhao Liang's last concern was gone.

His future plans will be huge. There is a dragon throne waiting for his sons to fight each other, which is cruel enough. If even the inner house is not peaceful, his wife and concubines will fight first before the sons start fighting each other. If you die today and she die tomorrow, the fight between the sons will easily turn into a death fight!

This is something Zhao Liang would never want to see.

He would rather marry a tigress that could shake the backyard, and he would only be Wu Song, who would kill the tiger.

After the general affairs were handled, the New Year was coming. In the heavy snow, the Zhao family had a happy New Year. No matter who it was, they felt that this year's New Year was a comfortable and happy holiday.

Our own development is smooth sailing and wealth is abundant.

And the children and grandchildren also wanted to be harmonious, and even Zhao Liang's marriage, which was most worried about the elders in previous years, had a clear idea.

Mr. Kang from Ruzhou is still very satisfied with the conditions of the Zhao family.

Whether it is from the family’s foundation or the Zhao family’s family tradition - good external charity and harmony within the family, and the ability to marry into the Zhao family, it is considered a blessing.

Although it is said that the Zhao family’s uncle has a bad body, he is really not good even if he is such a person who has a bad body, but he has been running around all day long.

The head of the Zhao family was even more agitated. She spoke early. As soon as her daughter-in-law entered the door, she had to hand over the housekeeper. Mr. Kang thought about his powerful daughter and felt that such a mother-in-law was really a perfect match for her daughter.

So, Mr. Kang is really happy and happy.

Before the opening of the Zhao Family Hetang, someone from the Kang family was present. After learning about the Zhao Family's major actions before the New Year, they immediately sent it back to Ruzhou. With Kang Yuanwai's eyesight, they could naturally see the Zhao family's plan.

This is the way to be rich in the long run.

So before the New Year, both sides had already made clear their feelings and waited for the New Year to leave the gift after the New Year!

It's almost a foregone conclusion when things get to this point.

Mr. Zhao, Grandma Zhao, Dad, Zhao, and Mom Zhao, etc. solved the big problem. How could they not be happy?

Even Zhao Liang was very happy.

Because, during the Chinese New Year, many people who work outside in Dazhaozhuang have gone home one after another.

After hearing the news about Liangjia School and Zhaojia Technical School, these people did not disappoint Zhao Liang's expectations. Every household was willing to sign up for their son.
