Daiyu couldn't hold back any longer, and said with an angry smile, "I just realized that you are getting thicker!"

Jia Qiang shook her head and said, "In short, although outsiders seem to be very busy, I know in my heart that most of the busyness and prestige are empty. I have to rely on myself to get a good reputation first. Therefore, I dare not slack off for a day. Of course, with a famous teacher like Aunt Lin, I am very confident."

Seeing his sincerity, Daiyu nodded in satisfaction and said in praise: "If you have such a heart, why worry about not being successful in the exam?" Coax me again!"

Jia Qiang was "astonished" and said, "Why is there a coaxing word?"

Daiyu gritted her teeth and said, "You always try to coax me with nice words, you clearly treat me like an eleven or twelve year old child!"

Jia Qiang looked weird and said, "How is this possible? Auntie, you are already thirteen this year, not an eleven or twelve kid anymore!"

"I knew you were going to arrange me again after I rotted your mouth! I won't spare you today!"

Daiyu blushed with shame and indignation, got up and put down her pen, and came to arrest Jia Qiang.

Jia Qiang laughed and dodged, but after running for a while, seeing that Daiyu was sweating profusely on her forehead and panting, she intentionally missed and was caught. "Threat" said: "Do you still dare to lie to me?"

Jia Qiang shook her head again and again and said, "Don't dare, never dare again! Actually, I didn't mean to coax you on purpose, I just hope to see you smile more. For some reason, seeing Aunt Lin smile more, I feel very sad in my heart. Comfortable, even a day's fatigue can dissipate most of it."

Daiyu's pretty face turned red when she heard the words, and she couldn't even lift her head, so she just said softly: "You...don't say such things again, or I'll tell daddy." For two days, I have been restless in my heart, so be careful when you are outside."

Jia Qiang smiled warmly and said, "After finishing my work tomorrow, I will stay at home as usual, and I will not go out until the New Year is over."

After saying "En", Daiyu slowly raised her eyes, glanced at Jia Qiang, then turned and left...

Chapter 2 Let Me Use It

The next morning.

After doing morning exercises and washing up, Jia Qiang went out.

It's not a race against time, but he still has to hurry.

Now that he is far away from the capital, and Lin Ruhai will extend his official term for half a year, it can be said that the right time, place and people are in harmony.

If you don't take advantage of this time, try every means to develop and grow, and when you return to Beijing in the future, there will be countless giants at the top, and the interests of all parties will be entangled below.

If you think about it like in Jiangnan, it is almost impossible to develop the foundation, grow strength, and accumulate wealth almost unscrupulously!

Right now, the foundation for wealth distribution has been laid. Once Jufeng Island is built, a large amount of saltpeter can be purified on the island, and the ice room is no longer limited to Yangzhou Prefecture.

There are also stir-fry including hot pot base materials, and the preparation of dyes.

After each of these things grows bigger, it will be an income that flows through gold and silver.

Wanxianglou and Bingshi seem to be booming. Of course, cash flow is also booming.

But the one who can really make a lot of money is Taiping Buzhuang hidden behind.

Cloth and silk with brighter colors can be sold at high end in the short term, and exported to the West in the long run.

Jia Qiang's real gold finger is the weaving and dyeing formula that he had in mind.

That is the essence of the weaving and dyeing industry summed up by generations of weaving and dyeing predecessors, including overseas predecessors, who have spent generations of painstaking efforts.

Right now, the whole world is weaving and dyeing by hand, and Jia Qiang's dyes formulated with the most advanced secret recipe can definitely sweep the world's cloth houses.

Of course, the premise is to solidify the foundation a little bit, which is exactly what he has been doing these days.

At today's stage, as long as he doesn't lose power in the capital, or in other words, Lin Ruhai and even Han Banshan behind him don't fall, then the foundation of Yangzhou Prefecture will be safe.

Qi Taizhong didn't allow even the slightest mistake here.

As long as there is no business trip, Wanxiang Building, Ice Room, Bookstore, Theater Building, Guangde Society, and Golden Wafer Taiping Cloth Village will all intersect and develop with each other, flourishing day by day.

It will also continuously provide him with gold and silver resources, as well as the right to speak...

But to maintain the general trend in Beijing, especially in such a dangerous place where there are hungry tigers and wolves everywhere, to ensure that Lin Ruhai will not be defeated, relying on abundant financial resources and the voice of public opinion is far from enough.

Because on the bright side, Jia Qiang never had much room to make a move.

Don't say that it would be good if he could pass the examination of scholar within two or three years, even if he passed the examination of Jinshi, it would take ten or twenty years of hard work, and he would not have much say in the officialdom.

Therefore, I can only find ways to strengthen the power behind the scenes...

Otherwise, not to mention returning to Beijing to take advantage of the situation to stir up the situation, it is a good thing that there are not even bones left if people don't eat them.

It's not that Jia Qiang doesn't trust Lin Ruhai and Han Bin, it's just that when he was studying in the Red Chamber in his previous life, one of them had long since disappeared, and the other didn't exist, so there was really no experience to follow.

It is impossible for Jia Qiang to pin her future destiny on luck.

Therefore, as long as he knows that the Wanxiang Building was a great success last night and has a stable source of income, then the next thing he will be busy with is to secretly recruit more people so that he can have a certain degree of mobility and self-protection means after returning to Beijing .

Qi Garden, Thatched Cottage.

Qi Yun led Jia Qiang here, and Qi Taizhong was drinking milk.

Jia Qiang didn't even need to ask, she knew that the old man was not ashamed to eat human milk...

As if seeing Jia Qiang's strange eyes, Qi Taizhong slowly put down the small bowl of chicken hearts with lotus petals pattern that he drank, looked at Jia Qiang and said indifferently: "You only eat milk in the Yamen of Yanyuan. How can you compare to the strong bones?" Breastfeeding?"

Hearing this, Jia Qiang raised her head slightly, looked at the carved pillars and beams on the top of the thatched cottage, and said softly: "Old man, Yangzhou Mansion is fine, after all, this is the site that your Qi family has operated for more than a year. Fart in the courtyard, I am not surprised that you always come here to know whether it is radish or celery. But if you mix sand in the hands of the people I recruited next, then you are always forcing me. You This silver fox, even the Supreme Emperor is willing to be your friend, so naturally I can't beat you. But I don't think you can live to be ten thousand years old, right?"

Qi Taizhong narrowed his eyes when he heard the words, laughed and cursed, and said: "You are the first one who dares to threaten the old man face to face!"

However, he kept observing Jia Qiang's actions, and seeing Jia Qiang's head was still looking up at the roof of the thatched cottage after she finished speaking, the previous little thoughts faded away.

If he was 20 years younger, he would have made another choice. How could he endure the ups and downs in the middle of the capital and stand alone in the south of the Yangtze River?

Always intervene in order to seek the greatest benefit.

But at this point today, the first priority is to take the lead in protecting the Qi family.

As for mixing sand around Jia Qiang...

Let's talk about it after the Qi family has established a firm foothold overseas, otherwise, I'm afraid that I will really offend this bold and black-hearted kid right now, and give the Qi family eye drops.

Qi Taizhong said with a smile: "I don't ask about the affairs of the Yanyuan yamen, but some people have heard of it. As for the people under your command... If you really want to recruit a few people who are available, I can teach you a perfect way. Law……"

Only then did Jia Qiang lower her raised head, turned to look at Qi Taizhong, and humbly asked for advice: "Please give me your advice, old man."
