Chapter 47 Worried About Jia's House
Mrs. Wang was slandering her in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face: "Old Ancestor, it's not that I calculated my aunt's dowry. It's really that the empress is decent in the palace, and Mrs. Lin is also a bit glorious in front of the imperial court."
Mother Jia snorted, thinking that your Wang family is really calculating. First, they sent the daughter of the Jia family to that shady place, and then planned to fill in the daughter of the Xue family. Could it be that it would be unlucky to marry your daughter of the Wang family? no?
If she was young, Mother Jia would have beaten Mrs. Wang out, but now Mrs. Wang has Baoyu, Jia Lan, and a daughter who is a princess. It can be said that she is the most beautiful Jia family now, and she cannot be offended.
Flowing water, falling flowers, spring gone, no matter what, how long can I live?It's just that there is wine today and drunk today. At the moment, Jia's mother has no choice but to say, "Well, I will give up my old face and go beg my uncle. There is only one thing. I can open my mouth, but I can't guarantee how much my uncle will pay. .”
Mrs. Wang was about to say something, and Jia Mu waved her hand: "I'm tired today, so let's go here."
Jia Qiang took an errand to go to the south of the Yangtze River to go to Zhen's family to ask for [-] silver, and buy colored lanterns, candles and curtains of various colors.
After Sister Feng learned about it, she sent a message to him, saying that she would recommend two suitable people for her, one named Zhao Tianliang and the other named Zhao Tianliang.
Zhao Tiandong.
Sister Feng used to be a housekeeper, but at last she was a bit thin-skinned, and Jia Qiang agreed immediately.This trip was full of luxuries, so he was naturally happy to sell Sister Feng's face, who didn't know that Sister Feng would be in charge of Jia's mansion in the future, so if you curry favor with her, there will be plenty of benefits in the future.
Jia Lian didn't know about this until Jia Lian's wet nurse, Nanny Zhao, came to thank her. At that moment, he was both surprised and happy, bowing to Sister Feng again and again.
Sister Feng pursed her lips and smiled: "Those two are Zhao Mama's sons, and they are also Second Master's nurse brothers, so naturally they should do their best to promote them."
Jia Lian didn't know what to say: "I usually have a soft face and a kind heart. I can't resist being begged, and I have done a lot of absurd things to put my flesh and blood on those irrelevant outsiders. You thought it was thoughtful."
Sister Feng was proud of herself, and she didn't like Jia Lian very much, but now she gradually explored the way of getting along with husband and wife, and found that it would be beneficial to show some weakness to Jia Lian, so she also smiled coquettishly: "Where is the second master, what is the second master?" It's important to do things upright outside, and sometimes there are negligence, I should take care of these trivial matters for the second master in the inner courtyard."
Then he made a disturbed expression: "Second Lord, do you think that slaves can't make up their own minds? Although we hid cleanly, there will always be a day when we make a comeback. At that time, the subordinates have no experience, and there is no one who can be used. It's better Asking for favors, let the two brothers go out to do errands. Firstly, it will be beneficial for us to win over them. Second, it is an experience and a lot of skills. The house is also our filial piety."
After saying this, how can Jia Lian care about her self-assessment?On the contrary, he was quite comfortable in his heart, like eating honey ice in the summer, so he hugged Sister Feng by the waist and wanted to kiss: "Qingqing, I am so dedicated, what can I do."
Wang Xifeng hurriedly beat him up: "But he's crazy! Now that he's fit, he doesn't dare to mess around." But he was secretly proud, it turned out that a man is like a child and takes it seriously.
It turned out that it was wrong for me to treat men like a housekeeper, Lei Lifengfeng. That would only drive men away from me. Who would like an arrogant and domineering partner who suppresses him and shows off that he is better than himself?It would be better if the husband and wife are harmonious and plan together like they are now.
Qingwen made money, paid out of her own pocket, and invited Lin's kitchen to set up a banquet in the courtyard, and then pretended to post a post, invited Daiyu and all the sisters in the mansion, and invited everyone to have a good meal.
When Daiyu was in Yangzhou, she just felt that she often laughed and drank happily every day. It was like a lifetime away. Sometimes she dreamed back in the middle of the night, and would be dazed for a long time, not knowing whether her life today was a dream or not.
Soon there was a reminder that she had dinner with her father as usual, but her father's face was serious, and he said: "Today I received a letter from your grandmother, saying that the mansion is going to build a family-saving villa and urgently needs a lot of money. The turnover is not open, Tete opened his mouth to borrow money from me."
After hearing this, Daiyu understood that in the previous life they annexed two or three million silver from the Lin family, and now without this large sum of money, the Jia family naturally couldn't think of a way to squander it.
Really!Thinking about it, Daiyu felt that Jia's mansion was absurd, if they didn't get the money, then it would be fine if they didn't do it, why would they want to spend it recklessly when they don't have money?
Why on earth?
In fact, it is easy to understand that Jia's mother is now old, and she likes luxury and doesn't like to take care of things. It is to prop up the gate of Jia's mansion and support his daughter.
If Jia's mansion leaves a luxurious impression in Beijing, it will be easier for Jia Baoyu and Jia Lan to attract girls from good families in the future, so it will be a good thing.
Therefore, the entire Jia family, from the master to the servants, was extravagant.
At the moment Daiyu sighed: "Such extravagance, even mountains of gold and silver can't stand it." '
Lin Ruhai thought it was true, these people are drunk and rich, and I, Yu'er, can't understand it as carefully as I, but he didn't say it in front of Daiyu, so as not to develop Daiyu's character of being clean-eyed.
At the moment, he only said: "The mansion can only send out 3000 taels of silver, it's still for your mother's sake."
Daiyu disagreed, did those people look at their mother's face when they seized the Lin family's property?Back then when the rumors were talking about him letting him die, did he look at his mother's face?
Dad is a nostalgic person, and always feels that it is not easy to reject the old lady's opening, but he doesn't want to cherish so much.
So Daiyu said: "Father! You paid too much money, but the Jia family must not only not appreciate it, but blame you for not paying enough."
This is true, Lin Ruhai knew how the masters in Jia's mansion were, and 3000 taels of silver seemed like a drop in the bucket to them, so he immediately asked Daiyu, "How much does Yu'er think is appropriate?"
Daiyu smiled and said, "Father forgot? Now the Jia family has sent people to the south of the Yangtze River to buy things for afforestation. Our family has a large amount of stone and wood, so we can just send 5000 taels of silver to Jia's house."
Lin Ruhai nodded, this is a good idea, those stones are sold for 5000 taels outside now, but the cost of purchasing them at home is only worth less than 1000 taels.
What's more, the descendants of the Jia family didn't do it themselves, but handed it over to outsiders in the side branches. Who didn't know that this was a great job, and everyone planned to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune.
Directly give 5000 taels of silver to Jia's mansion, maybe only 500 taels will be used for purchasing in the end, and the rest will be embezzled by people who dealt with it up and down.
It would be better to give them the real thing directly, which would save a lot of trouble.
Having made up his mind, Lin Ruhai took some of the stones and wood piled up on the Zhuangzi, loaded them on a boat and sent them to Jia's mansion.
People in Jia's mansion received these, although Mrs. Wang was dissatisfied, but after calculation, it was worth ten thousand dollars, and she was already very satisfied when Lin's mansion was finally bleeding.
Mother Jia was also satisfied, and felt guilty towards Lin Ruhai and Daiyu. As a grandmother herself, instead of protecting her uncle and granddaughter, she asked for money, which was really disrespectful.
Fortunately, my uncle didn't care about this. Instead, he sent a boatload of the most in-demand stone and wood to the Lin family. The market value is about 1 taels. item, you don't need to buy it.
But Jia's mother didn't know that these things were originally bought by Qingwen for about 1000 taels of silver, and they were not worth too much. When Lin Ruhai sent them from Yangzhou, the stones were worth 5000 taels, but when they arrived in the capital, they were worth 1 taels. The construction of each house in Beijing is in full swing, and it is already worth [-] taels of silver.
Qingwen had already taken these things into account, and did not sell the wood and Taihu stones that Lin's mansion transported to the capital for sale at the beginning, but only waited for the shortage of these materials in the market, and then sold them in one go after the price continued to rise, and the selling price was higher than the market price [-]% cheaper.
As a result, all inventories were sold out and a large profit was made.
Qingwen taught the maids: "This is my trick. I bought a large amount of inventory at the beginning and directly grasped most of the raw materials on the market. In this way, my family alone can control the movement of the entire stone market."
Xue He clapped his hands and exclaimed: "In this way, we don't have the final say on the price? Earning such a fortune for nothing."
Xueyan listened carefully, and still had a question: "Then why sell it at this time? Sister Qingwen will pressure him for a while, won't the price be higher?"
Well, it is a good seedling. Qingwen replied: "Because stone is not a necessity of life, people can abandon it if the price is higher than a certain limit. Isn't root carving a bonsai? Flowers and trees are also beautiful! I have to put a few broken stones in the yard ?”
Xueyan suddenly realized, but a new question arose: "Then why is sister Qingwen [-]% lower than the market price?"
Qingwen smiled: "This is the trick. Do the people close to him know the emperor's decree? Will the eunuch who issued the decree release the news to his close ones first?"
"Those people must have heard the news before us, and they are also thinking of hoarding and doing a big job. We have blocked their financial resources. Will they become angry from embarrassment?"
"The best result is now like this: taking the money not only ensures that we will not drop the goods in our hands after the demand side in the market is saturated, but also guarantees that the profits will be given to the real big boss."
Daiyu was amazed at the side: "This is really a business genius."
Qingwen smiled: "I learned some superficial lessons when I was at Lai's house. I heard that big businessmen of all dynasties have done this."
Not only big businessmen, but the stock market also operated in the same way in the era when she came. Some big households worked hand in hand with companies, and even those big households were the vests of business owners. They collude with each other. Buy it again and resell it for a profit.
Mother Jia snorted, thinking that your Wang family is really calculating. First, they sent the daughter of the Jia family to that shady place, and then planned to fill in the daughter of the Xue family. Could it be that it would be unlucky to marry your daughter of the Wang family? no?
