Chapter 209 Zisheng, take the money

September 6th

As the saying goes, Ma Jin, who was sleepy in spring and exhausted in summer, was knocked by Yan Yuan brothers, was already hungover and had breakfast, and then went back to the room for a nap.

In the afternoon, Ma Jin was full and went out to wander around the yard, then went back to the room to eat the food Zhu Hu brought from outside.

While eating Ma Jin, he was also nagging, wasn't it said that the people who accompanied him this time were all imperial chefs in the palace, and how could he be so skilled? Not to mention that he caught up with his apprentice Bao Bao, even Niu Zhan, the dishes he cooked may not be worse than him.

How could Ma Jin know that although there were many imperial chefs in the palace this time, they served the nobles in the palace, and the important officials of the court, Cai Yang, and the meals they gave to low-level officials such as Ma Jin were made by the chefs who started the imperial kitchen.

But don’t think that others look down on others if they try to do something. That’s the Royal Kitchen in Danei. Anyone who comes out to wash vegetables has a unique skill. These chefs go out of the palace, and some restaurants hire them to be chefs.

Ma Jin's mouth was also tricked by Bao Bao, so he was picky. However, from this we can also see that Bao Bao's cooking skills are so exquisite that he is close to the chef in the palace. Even Niu Zhan's skills have improved by leaps and bounds under his guidance.

...

After having dinner, Ma Jin simply asked someone to move a chair to the yard and bask in the sun comfortably. Qinglong County has a warm climate and comfortable sunshine. It happened that it was afternoon again, and the sunshine was almost weaker, which was suitable for basking in the sun.

While basking in the sun, Ma Jin brought a book to read it, saying that Yue's outline has been written and Ma Jin has a long history of the rest of the plot, so it is time to consider preparing for the new book.

There is no way, it is too fierce to spend money on marrying a wife. Ma Jin felt that he couldn't stand it, so he should hurry up and write a book to make money.

As for what to write a new book, Ma Jin has a little idea now, and reading it is also preparing for the new book.

...

When Ma Jin was about to use his efforts to forget the pain of losing money, he did not fulfill his wish and another debt collector came to him.

King Su Yan Yi happily brought two subordinates into the door, and Ma Jin's mood that had just recovered was dark again.

However, Yan Yi is different from the two little guys just now. Maybe he will have to mess with others in the future. So no matter how familiar Ma Jin and Yan Yi are, he always has a little respect when facing Yan Yi.

Ma Jin stepped forward to greet Yan Yi and said, "I have met Your Highness."

He turned his head and looked at the two men behind Yan Yi, one by one, one by one, and one by one, and said hello: "Mr. Zhang, Commander Tie."

The two behind Yan Yi, Ma Jin, also met when he went to the royal palace before, and they were both Yan Yi's confidants.

Zhang Ping, whose courtesy name is Zixu, was in his thirties. He was from Qishan County, Fengxiang Prefecture, Shaanxi Province. He was Yan Yi's number one aide. Yan Yi usually relied on him. He was not a vain and had an official position as the right chief of the Su Palace, and was a sixth rank.

However, everyone in the royal palace has always called him Mr. Zhang, so Ma Jin followed the crowd.

Ma Jin had communicated with Zhang Ping and found that this person is very arrogant. Although he is gentle on his face and treats people politely, Ma Jin is not a good person. Later, when he was a screenwriter, he saw countless talented people in the circle.

Soon, he realized that Zhang Ping was very arrogant in his bones and seemed to have some disdain for him. Ma Jin didn't want to touch his cold butt with a warm face. The two had a very indifferent relationship.

However, people have a proud capital. In Yan Yi's words, Zhang Zixu has the talent to save the world. Ma Jin also explored Zhang Ping's bottom and found that they are all familiar with astronomy, geography, classics, history, and marching and formation, and helping the country and the people.

Anyway, Ma Jin was ashamed of himself. If he hadn't been able to shake the other party by relying on his later experience, he would have made an ugly appearance at that time. However, this also made Zhang Ping look at Ma Jin differently, thinking that Ma Jin is still a little talented, and his attitude towards Ma Jin has also been alleviated a little.

...

And the other person, Ma Jin, became much more familiar with.

Tie Chi, whose courtesy name is Zhonggang, was 30 years old. He was from Weishan County, Yanzhou Prefecture, Shandong Province. He was the commander of the Su Palace. He was the military position of the sixth-rank commander in the army. He was originally a powerful general in the army, but was later transferred to Yan Yi by Emperor Jingkang.

I heard that Tie Chiyuan was promoted by Yan Yi's grandfather, the old Duke Ying Guo, who was personally promoted. He was very close to the Chang family. With this relationship, Yan Yi trusted him very much.

Ma Jin and Tiechi have a good relationship because they are fighting. Of course, it is not him who beats, but Zhu Hu.

When Ma Jin went to Prince Su's mansion for the second time, Yan Yi heard that Zhu Hu behind Ma Jin was a great hero who rescued the Southern Suburbs. He praised it very much, which aroused Tie Chi's dissatisfaction, and then the two of them fought.

Whether it was weapons or fists, Tie Chi was defeated. Later, Ma Jin heard Zhu Hu say that he would still keep his strength, otherwise the Iron Commander would not be able to get up.

Zhu Hu showed off his sensation. Seeing such a powerful general, Yan Yi didn't care that Ma Jin was unhappy and even spoke up, but Zhu Hu refused.

His family has a beautiful wife and is unwilling to join the army to fight. In addition, he has no ambitions, otherwise he would not have withdrawn from the Ministry of Justice. Zhu Hu thought it would be good to follow Ma Jin now.

Life is not tiring, there is no danger. You can go home to take care of your father and wife if you have time, and you can make a lot of money.

After Yan Yi's advice failed, he had to give up. Ma Jin was very happy about this and raised his wages for Zhu Hu. Speaking of which, Zhu Hu was unwilling to leave Ma Jin. In addition to having feelings for a long time, his generous salary was also an important reason.

Zhu Hu's initial salary was eight taels per month. Later, when Ma Jin saw Zhu Hu's ability, he thought eight taels were too little, so he rose to fifteen taels again.

Later, in the southern suburbs, Zhu Hu was the guard of Ma Jin, so his contributions were Ma Jin. With Zhu Hu's light, Ma Jin gained a lot of benefits.

Ma Jin did not treat Zhu Hu badly. In addition to privately compensate Zhu Hu for 2,000 taels of silver, he also soared Zhu Hu's monthly money to 50 taels. Zhu Hu changed his house to a house in one fell swoop, and his wife Huang took various tonics every day.

After the incident in the palace, Ma Jin raised Zhu Hu ten taels of silver every month. After this year, if you only calculate your salary, Zhu Hu's salary will soon be as good as a fifth-rank general. Do you think he can not give up with Zhu Hu?

After Tie Chi was defeated by Zhu Hu, she not only did not feel upset, but also admired Zhu Hu's force and took the initiative to make friends with Zhu Hu, and Ma Jin also earned a lot of impression points.

...

It can be foreseeable that if Yan Yi can ascend to the great treasure in the future, both the literary and military confidants will be future tycoons. If Zhang Ping does not say that he has entered the cabinet steadily, he will still have great hope of taking charge of one of the six ministries.

As for Tie Chi, he is probably one of the commanders of the two imperial guards, and he can become a third-rank general with the character "Zhen" at the most time.

So Ma Jin was friendly to both of them, even though he had a weak relationship with Zhang Ping, Ma Jin also had the idea of ​​being able to make friends with him and not being able to offend him.

Zhang and Tie were also very polite to Ma Jin. Not to mention that they had not yet made a strong presence, they would not be able to compete with Ma Jin, the son-in-law of Ma Jin, and they also knew a little about Ma Jin and Yan Yan.

If Ma Jin succeeds, he will be Yan Yi's brother-in-law, a royal relative. After all, they are outsiders and cannot compare to their own family members.

So on this point, Zhang and Tie and Ma Jin have a tacit understanding. They both have the same attitude. If you can get along well, you will not offend them.

...

Seeing Ma Jin greeting, the two of them hurriedly replied.

Yan Yi was very casual. Since he grabbed Ma Jin's little tail and fell in love with Yan Yan, the relationship between the two has made rapid progress. In Yan Yi's heart, Ma Jin is already his own person, so what else can he see?

So, as soon as Yan Yi sat down, he stretched out his hand towards Ma Jin.

"Zisheng, get the money."
