Chapter Fifty-Three: Inconvenient Night Without Shoes

Woman and hairpin, man tied his hair.

These are two very important life turns of the ancients. There are many rituals for children and hairpins in wealthy families, and the conditions for small families are limited. However, on this day, the family will prepare a dinner as rich as possible and then give their daughter a hairpin.

At the age of fifteen, he tied his hair and put his hair into a hairpin to make a hairpin. The girl promised to marry him and treated him with a hairpin.

Fang Jingnan didn't understand before, but he didn't come alone. He just asked someone and then got to know about it.

The ceremony is indeed a very important ceremony, but is it really appropriate to do it at this time?

Fang Jingnan didn't say much, just watch it!

This time, the person who was sent to the family was Zhang Xuehui, the youngest daughter of Zhang Shou, the fourth son of our family.

A door in the east room slowly opened, and a girl in colorful clothes and shoes walked out slowly. She was not tall, but she looked about one or five meters tall, but her facial features were upright, bright eyes and white teeth, delicate and fair skin, and her black hair was gently draped over her shoulders.

Such a look is petite and cute in later generations, but now it is simply the best.

The ceremony was very complicated, mainly three plus three bows. Fang Jingnan had thoughts and did not pay much attention to the process. He just waited until the three plus three bows were finished and the banquet began.

"Hehe, this meal was really good!"

Xingfeng burped, but his eyes were straight at Zhang Xuehui who was wearing a hairpin. As a man, Fang Jingnan guessed his dirty thoughts with a glance.

In fact, one of the functions of the banquet is to show your daughter to the guests, and those who want to make up their marriage can start.

Zhang Shouren arranged to sit in the same seat with Fang Jingnan. While Fang Jingnan and the others were eating and drinking wildly, he was sitting quietly watching the ceremony. He waited until the ceremony was over. Then he quietly approached and asked, "How about it, our Zhang family girl is not bad, right?"

Fang Jingnan rinsed her mouth with tea and praised casually: "It's not just good, it's simply a beauty of nature and cannot be desecrated."

"How about marrying you?"

With the thunder rolling in the sky, Fang Jingnan's life event was brought up from Zhang Shouren's mouth. Fang Jingnan thought he had heard it wrong, "What did you say?"

Zhang Shouren chuckled and said, "It is the order of parents, but first of all, I haven't heard that you have elders alive. Secondly, this is the proposal of the patriarch. I think the meaning of this is unexplained."

He patted Fang Jingnan on the shoulder and praised him: "The conversations you had with the clan leader should have touched him. In this way, the two sides could become a family. The old clan leader was inconvenient to say it clearly. After all, the scattered clan's remarks have been expressed strongly at home many times, and they have rejected the opposition of the crowd several times. Now that he has loosened himself, he is naturally embarrassed on his face, so he uses marriage to send signals."

In-laws are a very important relationship in this era. When the clan forces in later generations were suppressed and broken, the in-laws relationship still existed firmly and would continue to exist.

The lives of hundreds of people in the Zhang family in Puzhou are bound to you. If you are not even a marriage partner, who can rest assured?

Before, when Fang Jingnan and Zhang Jingxuan were intimate, many people around him had already guessed this. In this era, such a marriage is a matter of being held in the question, and it is strange not to connect.

Xingfeng looked at Fang Jingnan with great envy. Seeing that he kept silent, he whispered: "Sir, don't worry about the affairs of elders. Mr. Chen can be replaced by his old age. If he is not a parent in Chengwen County, he can also be appointed as a parent in the same place."

Fang Jingnan waved him back.

The Chinese are very particular about face. Now that the leader of the Zhang clan has extended an olive branch, the clan agrees very much depending on the situation. If he refuses, don’t say that he cannot get the support of Zhang. If he is not good, both sides can turn against each other, at least he is indifferent.

But he doesn't want to get married like this!

*

After the banquet, Fang Jingnan came to the villa where Zhang Chengyan lived and prepared to have an open and honest talk.

The person who tied the bell needs to be untied, and Fang Jingnan can only explain it clearly to him.

"Back the engagement?" Zhang Chengyan sat on the cushion, looking at the handsome young man in front of him, looking surprised.

"Hey, can you be responsible for your words? Are you engaged? What's the matter? You're off the engagement!" Fang Jingnan said helplessly.

"Why do you disagree?" Zhang Chengyan's eyes were full of doubts.

Facing this Fang Xiaolang, Zhang Chengyan could not remember how many times he had moved, but this time was definitely the most shocking time. Before the two met, Zhang Chengyan guessed Fang Jingnan's plan for Zhang.

For decades, people who have thought about Zhang's legacy have never stopped one after another. However, it can be seen that Fang Jingnan did not use the skills of the side, so Zhang Chengyan was not disgusted with him. Now that he has used such a great effort, he finally moved himself and decided to take Zhang's last try. As a result, he actually refused to marry him!!!

A person who is so smart and seems to have to do something big, can't he pass the level of beauty and dislike Zhang Xuehui's appearance?

After thinking about it, Zhang Chengyan said, "There is another granddaughter in Zhang's name. However, his appearance is generally recognized as not as good as Xuehui, but everyone likes it differently. Why don't you meet you?"

Fang Jingnan smiled bitterly and said, "The boss misunderstood me. It's not a problem with appearance. I just think that marriage is something that I can keep for the rest of my life. It's better to share my destiny, or to be in love with each other."

"The two are in love?" Zhang Chengyan couldn't help laughing out loud on his old face, "Fang Xiaolang believes in the lingering love depicted in the book, which is full of affection and affection?"

Fang Jingnan touched her nose awkwardly, not knowing how to explain. Zhang Chengyan stared at him seriously again, as if he wanted to see through him again. After a long time of examination, Zhang Chengyan suddenly said: "So... do you want to marry Zhang Jingxuan? She is only nine years old!"

Marry a chicken!

Fang Jingnan couldn't help but jump up and shouted in a deep voice: "We are in a win-win cooperation. Do you understand how to cooperate? Why do you have to impose a marriage on me?"

Fang Jingnan actually has no moral obsession with cleanliness, nor is she pretentious. If she meets a girl she likes, her three wives and four concubines will be very pleasant. However, he is not very able to accept this kind of compulsive requirement, just like Chen Youfu insisted on getting him and Chen Yinhua at the beginning.

Fang Jingnan believes that if even a wife who has been with her for life cannot choose independently, how can we stick to our faith and overcome all obstacles and keep the mountains and rivers unbreakable?

If a wife can change a few sets of clothes, she must have children, right? How can her own biological flesh and blood, the most important role of mother, be casual?

The emperor guarded the country's gates, and the king died in the country. The Ming Dynasty did not have peace and friendship for three hundred years.

This is the pride of the Ming Dynasty, just to die!

This is also Fang Jingnan's few praises to the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty was able to retreat to the south several times, but he had no such choice.

Because of this retreat, the integrity of the Han family will no longer exist.

Of course, Fang Jingnan did not want to talk about his view of love with a seventy-year-old man. He sneered for a while, suddenly stood up and stamped his steps back and forth in the house.

"Sir, I want to ask about something," said Fang Jingnan, "The purpose of marriage is nothing more than to make the cooperation between the two parties closer. In this way, as long as this result can be achieved, it is okay to change another way, right?"

Zhang Chengyan said softly, looking at him and said, "What are your opinions on this?"

What are the advantages of Fang Jingnan? The joint-stock system, the chairman system, the voting of major shareholders, dividends, transfers, and division of interests. The system that has been polished for so many years in later generations should be easy to use. There are so many cooperation between companies, but they have never seen everyone marry.

After coughing, Fang Jingnan said slowly: "I think that in the business sector, we should set up a company and get returns based on the amount of shares we own!"

Then Fang Jingnan briefly explained his little knowledge about the company. He was not very clear about the blame, but he still knew the general responsibility and power situation.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Chengyan is not unfamiliar with this shareholding model. When a Shanxi businessman encounters a big deal that he cannot afford, he often collects shares and occasionally gives some dry shares to officials of the dynasty, which is not new at all.

Zhang Chengyan frowned and said in a deep voice: "We have encountered this method you mentioned, but it is usually a year-end transaction, and it will end in one year. The time is paid according to the principal and profit, and it will not last more than three years. But according to what you said, this cooperation must continue. What if there is a conflict in the future?"

Fang Jingnan grinned and said, "This has to be said in detail. The shareholders voted to reject the system. Hey, this is the essence of the shareholding system..."

Zhang Chengyan raised his hand and said, "No need to say it, I don't think this method is suitable!"

Fang Jingnan said in surprise: "How could it be, the right one? An effective dividend system can inspire everyone to unite for the same goal..."

Fang Jingnan's statement was interrupted again. Zhang Chengyan shook his head and said firmly: "This method can only share wealth and honor, but not sufferings!"

Well……

Fang Jingnan paused for a moment and thought carefully about the meaning of Zhang Cheng's words. What does it mean to be irreconcilable?

Zhang Chengyan continued: "The so-called joint-stock company of my friend is quite similar to our clan system. Usually, the clan leader manages many things. When encountering major events, he will convene famous clan elders in the clan to discuss it. The clan assets but gains are also good for the clan. Therefore, the truth behind it is not far different."

After slowing down, Zhang Chengyan said again: "But the company has the biggest difference between the clan. If a serious case and the company fails to disperse, but in the clan, the powerful and powerful convicted one of the three clans, and everyone will suffer, and their in-laws and brother-in-law will be implicated. In this way, only those who have good fortune and difficulties can unite everyone."

Zhang Chengyan said it very clearly, and he was definitely frank.

Fang Jingnan pondered for a long time and admitted that the relevant systems of later companies were indeed difficult to apply at this time.

In later generations, in order to encourage everyone to do business, the company law naturally cannot be so dangerous. It can be ruined at any time or its life is at stake. Who dares to open a company?

well……

Another self-deserving advanced concept was still in the womb. Of course, Fang Jingnan did not regret it. He did not expect to use the advanced company management concepts in later generations to manage the business of the Ming Dynasty well. He just hoped that there would be a way to make both sides closely unite without political marriage.

While thinking about it, Zhang Chengyan suddenly said, "Listen to Shouren, you have no elders in your family? Have you ever taken the words?"

Fang Jingnan nodded and said, "Yes, yes."

"Then..." Zhang Chengyan said carefully: "I will recognize you as an adopted son on behalf of Zhang. I will give you a word. Do you think it is feasible?"

"Adopted son? Godfather?"

Fang Jingnan was stunned again. Why did the solution to problems these days always have something to do with human ethics, and a father will be born.

Fang Jingnan shook his head cautiously and said, "Although my parents are no longer here, I will always remember the kindness of giving birth to a child. I can't recognize this godfather!"

In fact, Zhang Chengyan did not intend to take advantage of him, and did not recognize him as his grandson. He had been a member of the Yier for a lifetime, and was already leaving him with a face. Because this era had the custom of accepting his adopted sons. Li Dingguo, the anti-Qing general in the Southern Ming Dynasty, used to be called Zhang Dingguo, the adopted son of Zhang Xianzhong, the King of the Western King. Mao Wenlong also had many adopted sons, all of whom were very powerful.

But Fang Jingnan was not happy!

Zhang Chengyan was obviously a little angry. He frowned and said in a deep voice: "There are neither right nor left, so you can't just touch your mouth. My family, Zhang, will you take the risk with you?"

Fang Jingnan thought about it and felt that this was right. He sighed softly, and said, "It really doesn't work... Otherwise... let it go, the little one will set off and return immediately!"

"What did you say?" Zhang Chengyan stood up suddenly and said furiously: "It's over, you actually said forget it?"

Zhang Chengyan pointed his finger at Fang Jingnan's nose, and his thin chest was fluctuating violently. "If you don't have sincerity to plan things, what have you been looking for me?"

Fang Jingnan's head shrank slightly, and Zhang Chengyan was really angry in this way.

Somehow, Fang Jingnan suddenly remembered a London story that he had seen later. There was a handsome little gangster in the story. One day, he was shocked to see the passing nun. So he ignored the other party's teaching status and found an opportunity to make fun of things. Finally, the nun was moved by his sweet words and quietly handed over a note to meet in the garden after dusk. But then, the nun waited hard for the middle of the night and did not see anyone. Unfortunately, the spring heart was moved and it was unbearable.

The next day, I saw the gangster, and the nun asked: Why don’t you come?

The mutant said: It is inconvenient to walk without shoes at night

ps: Well, this chapter in Puzhou is over. I saw someone scolding that the pace of this paragraph was too slow. Firstly, Zhang was very helpful to the protagonist, so I wrote it in detail. Secondly, I asked you before, should I write it in detail? You said it was better to write it in detail (who felt wronged)

I will pay more attention later... Keep subscribed and don’t abandon it!
Chapter completed!
