Chapter 400: Digging a corner
Di Renjie is packing his luggage.∈◆,
His house is in the outer city, very simple.
It is just a few wing rooms surrounded by a bamboo fence. Although the furnishings inside are simple, they are also simple and unique.
For officials like Di Renjie who are neither famous nor honest, moving is a very painful thing.
Because he had to find a house when he arrived in Chang'an, and the house here must not be brought with him, so he could only sell it at a low price. After such a long journey, he had to settle down in Chang'an and buy new things.
His salary is actually not low, but he has a lot of family members, and there are some poor relatives who need to help him, which is even more miserable.
In fact, Di Renjie's father Di Zhixun had also been a small official, but he didn't know that the Di family had lost money and could not accumulate wealth. At this time, the women of the Di family couldn't help but complain, and they shouldn't have moved the capital. This time, an old woman in the family and an old man in the house were afraid that they would quit. When they arrived in Chang'an, they might not be able to hire a good one.
Besides, I bought a lot of new items a few days ago, but now I am afraid I can't take them anymore, so I will sell them again, and the price is different.
Di Renjie was upset when he heard this, so he simply went to the study room on the right and looked at the book absent-mindedly.
Cui Feng's departure made Di Renjie keenly feel that the situation was worse than he thought. He was a famous figure in the world, and everyone's eyes were looking at him, so Di Renjie was not worried. Those people in the Wei family dared to treat him, but it was easy to block open guns and difficult to prevent hidden arrows, but they didn't know what the people were going to do.
After a while, the old man in the door came to report and said, "Di Gong, there are people outside that the carriages and horses are ready. When Di Gong sets off tomorrow, he can get on their car. In order to make it more convenient for Di Gong to bring more household items, he specially prepared a loading truck, which happened to be delivered to the dock and can directly arrive in Chang'an."
Di Renjie said in surprise: "I have never asked someone to pick him up and drop him off, but I don't know who he is?"
"It was from Shangguan Chen, the Marquis of Jizhou. He said that he heard that Di Gong was leaving, so it was not convenient to see him off. However, he was familiar with the young master. After learning some situations, it happened that there was a caravan in Shence Mansion going to Chang'an. Thinking of Di Gong's many inconveniences, he asked someone to help Di Gong move."
In fact, Di Renjie was going to Chang'an, and there were official ships and sedan chairs all the way, so there was nothing to worry about. However, the court was only responsible for Di Renjie and his close relatives, but the others were not worried about it. After all, there were too many people who were leaving now, especially the inner city, which was almost empty. There were so many people, even if Di Renjie was the left chief of the Shangshu Province, that was the only way.
In fact, Di Renjie is not worried about human affairs. What he is worried about is the goods. He has so many manuscripts in Luoyang and there are women. He must bring a lot of things, and his children must also need something. So he has to hire a truck. However... it was easy in the past, but it is difficult now, because the family moved not only two families. In the past, although Chang'an and Luoyang were far apart, people had to eat and use the cattle and horses.
I also have to eat and use it. I have to spend a few months at a time, and even ten jin of money may not be able to get it. Nowadays, many carriages and horses have been hired long ago. The wealthy and officials are not short of such money. Naturally, they are also competing for bidding, fearing that there will be any inconvenience on the way. Therefore, the price of hiring for this carriage and horse has risen three times a day, so even if you use 70 to 80 jin of money to find someone, it is afraid that it will be difficult to find a suitable carriage and horse. However, these things cannot be abandoned by Di Renjie.
Who would have thought that Shangguan Chen would come to help him in time?
Who is Shangguan Chen? How could Di Renjie not know? This guy has a twin brother with Qin Shaoyou. He didn't know that his son actually got along with him. Di Renjie didn't like his son Di Guang to go away and get along with Shangguan Chen. He didn't expect that what should have happened would still happen.
Di Renjie was squinting his eyebrows, but he was not in a hurry to agree, but said, "Go and call Chu Cai."

Di Guangyuan carefully went to Di Renjie's study, looking down. The Di family's tutoring was too strict. Although Di Guangyuan is in his thirties now and has both wives and daughters, he was so angry that he said he would take off his pants and spank him. He had an instinctive fear of this me, so he arrived at the desk in a row and called out carefully: "Father, I don't know what to call me."
Di Renjie raised his eyes, looked at Shangguan Chen, and his face tense: "Are you the Marquis of Jizhou who are the best friends?"
Di Guangyuan was startled. The matter was revealed. He did not dare to neglect and answered honestly: "The Marquis of Jizhou treat people kindly and are friends with everyone. At the end of last year, he couldn't beat him up and went to a banquet to recognize him. He has always been good to his son and takes good care of him. His son is a military officer in Henan Prefecture, and there are some things..."
Bang...
Di Renjie slapped the table hard. It was so outrageous. People like Shangguan Chen dared to touch him. It was so amazing. The father and son were both officials and had no communication. Now Di Renjie realized that his son was so unsatisfied. Others could not understand Shangguan Chen's affairs, but he couldn't understand him. After eating Shangguan Chen and using Shangguan Chen, he would become a pawn of Shen Ce Mansion in the future.
So he roared, "Do you need to recognize so many people in Beijing? Do you need to recognize so many people in the world to treat others kindly? Do you need to hang out with them all? Not to mention that those who are close to the vermilion are red and those who are close to the ink are black..."
Di Guangyuan saw his father scolding his friend, and was stunned for a moment, and plucked up the courage to interrupt Di Renjie and said, "My father is such a bad word. Shangguan Chen is the younger brother of Shangguan Guan Yuzhao, and is also a famous family. He is familiar with all the classics, history and classics. How could such a romantic figure become a black man? Father, son dare not contradict him, but..."
Di Renjie's face had become even heavier.
He suddenly realized a problem. After his negligence, someone actually pried out the corner of the wall. Di Guangyuan has always been honest and obedient and never dared to disobey him. However, because of Shangguan Chen, he was so rude, what kind of defilement did this kid be given by Shangguan Chen?
