Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 213 Meet the Patriarch

   Fei Qian stood in front of Fei Min's Mansion, and couldn't help being in a daze for a moment.

  I once remembered that at that time, it was because of a little bit of trivial matter that I couldn't settle it. I had to trade the books left by my father in exchange for some degrees of freedom.

   This is the rule of the noble family.

  For hundreds of years, it is not that no one has gone beyond it, but those who tried to go beyond it have been culled by these customary rules.

  Will He Luofei's house be an accident?

   Fei Qian didn't know.

  Fei Qian just knows that among many competitors, the person who can become the head of the family is often not that simple...

  In the Han Dynasty, unless the immediate descendants of the head of the family were unlucky, there was really no choice. Most of the head of the family would let their children inherit the position of the head of the family.

  Of course, this kind of inheritance is also based on the so-called fair competition, and everyone knows what this so-called competition is all about.

Most of the patriarchs have already monopolized some knowledge through various means, and as the children of the patriarch, they can have more opportunities and more resources. Unless they really commit suicide, they will become the next generation of patriarchs and Not too difficult a thing.

  In fact, as far back as Yanhuang, there was a rudimentary form of aristocratic family.

At that time, Emperor Yan and Huang were only leaders in name, and when they encountered some major events, they still needed to call the leaders of other affiliated tribes to come to the alliance to discuss major issues in the world. There have been ups and downs, but the pattern of family and emperor co-ruling the world has always been the mainstream, and it has continued to this day.

  Fei Qian cast a famous stab at the porter, and waited quietly with the porter's accompanying smile.

The concierge is the person with the most vicious eyes. The last time Fei Qian brought Uncle Fu here, if it wasn't for the sake of those five baht coins, the concierge of Fei Min's house would not take any notice of him, but this time, Fei Min Qian didn't even take out a penny, but the concierge smiled like a flower.

  Everyone has their own set of survival skills.

  It is like the various classes in the society of the Han Dynasty today, and people of each class are playing their own roles.

   It can be said that the Han Dynasty was divided into four classes.

  First of all, it is naturally the royal family, that is, the central government represented by the Liu family.

  Next are the aristocratic families and emerging noble families. The main political needs of these people are land and population. At this point, the goals of the aristocratic families are the same, so to a certain extent they will join forces to fight against the imperial power and maintain their own status, but they also compete fiercely with each other.

  Because the economic foundation of the aristocratic family is to "occupy the mountains and protect the lakes", they merge a large amount of land to operate their own manor economy. The target of their annexation is the self-cultivating farmers, and the self-cultivating farmers are the economic foundation of the central royal family. The government's taxes and military service need to be borne by the self-cultivating farmers. This makes the manor economy of the powerful and the central government's economic income completely conflict with each other. He is long, so the aristocratic family actually grew up drinking the blood of the royal family.

  The third level of people is the small and powerful, that is, the so-called underprivileged. Small tyrants have more local characteristics, unlike aristocratic families, which are a combination of big bureaucrats and big families. They don't have high demands on power, and their demands are more pragmatic. They hope that there will be a "Ming Jun" who can protect the environment and the people, so that their family will not be bullied by yellow scarves and the like. Bandits invade, and it is enough to be a stable local rich man.

  The low-ranking scholars, that is, the demands of the small landlords, hope to break through the monopoly of the gentry on the officialdom and gain the opportunity to achieve success. Today's Ju Xiaolian, nominally selected as a virtuous person in the prefecture and county, is actually monopolized by the gentry, and his family background is almost despised in various ways.

  Because the elites who were born as small landlords have no way out, and their ascent channels are blocked. They are eager for opportunities and hope that they can make a fortune.

  As for the most basic civilians, self-cultivating farmers, these people have only one main need, which is stability, food and clothing.

But now Fei Qian feels that he is in the middle of the poor and the gentry, and there is some truth to saying that he is a gentry. After all, he is no longer a poor scholar if he is married to the Huang family in Jingxiang; Because he himself is still a collateral branch of the Heluofei family, and the head of the Fei family is still Feimin.

  Fei Min is still dressed in a brocade robe, with a three-stroke beard, a square face, and a fat figure, but this time there are obviously more smiles than last time.

  Fei Min stood in front of the hall, saw Fei Qian coming with the housekeeper, took two steps forward, and said with a smile: "Nephew Ziyuan, are you all right?"

  Fei Qian stepped forward to salute, and said, "Greetings, Uncle! I haven't seen you for a long time, and Uncle's demeanor is even better than the eve!"

   Fei Min laughed loudly, stretched out his hand to signal, and asked Fei to sneak into the hall and sit down. Naturally, Fei Qian respectfully asked Fei Min to go first, Fei Min made a gesture, and then entered the hall first, and sat in the middle.

  When Fei Qian sat down, Fei Min ordered tea, and at the same time asked with a smile on some things that Fei Qian had experienced in Jingxiang...

  Fei Qianlue picked up some and told Fei Min, and apologized to Fei Min: "Because the marriage happened suddenly, it was Qian's fault that he failed to notify the Patriarch in time. I hope Uncle Haihan forgive me."

Fei Min raised her head and laughed twice, squinted her eyes and stroked her beard, and said: "Yun once said in the past that he wanted to find a good wife for you, but Ziyun went west first... Now that Ziyuan is marrying the Huang family, it's true. You deserve Zi Yun's words."

  Speaking of this point, Fei Min still felt a little inexplicable feeling in his heart. Originally thought that the population of Fei Qian was not prosperous, and the family fortune was in sight, so I calculated the collection of books left in Fei Qian's family, who was still a young official at that time, but I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, this Fei Qian He actually got on the line of Cai Yong, and was accepted as a disciple by Cai Yong and Liu Hong, and his status was raised a lot...

In desperation, Fei Min thought of choosing one of the daughters in the family to marry Fei Qian, but unexpectedly, before the plan started, Fei Qian ran to Jingxiang and married the only daughter of Jingxiang Huang's family. No matter from which point of view, Fei Qian has already got rid of the original situation of low manpower, and has become a role with a certain weight in the Fei family.

In fact, before Fei Qian got married, he did not report to Fei Min in advance. This matter was a bit impolite, but after all, he and Fei Min were separated from each other, and the number one cultural leader in Jingxiang, Mr. Pang De, was the matchmaker, so the original importance of Fei Min was replaced. Well, now that Fei Qian has brought this matter up in the open, it is also a kind of temptation for Fei Min...

   On the construction site, two meals are eaten in a big pot. The dishes...the soup...only those who have done engineering will understand...
