The old lady left in the middle of the night, and she was still crying when she left. Maybe she wanted to say something after holding it in for a long time. The voice can be quiet, and there can be no one around, but she just wants to say it.

The mandarin duck was put by Jia Lian's side. It was so rare for the master and servant to see each other again, but in such a situation, they didn't cry for most of the night.

Jia Amnesty, who lived not far away, didn't reprimand her, didn't make Mrs. Xing talk too much, and fell asleep peacefully, unable to sleep without swearing.

Seeing him like this, Mrs. Xing knew that the Elder Master had become filial again. This filial energy has not diminished. It is indeed extremely rare. She has nothing good to say, so she simply asks someone to prepare a bowl of medicine to stun her. .

That night, the old lady's voice didn't disappear until the middle of the night. When it was dawn in the morning, I heard the sound of the mandarin duck crying. Jia She hurriedly put on his coat and just came, just in time to see the mandarin duck lying on the old lady in pain.

Yuanyang was sleeping next to the old lady in disheveled clothes. The old lady was very old, and her eyes and chest were closed and she never recovered.

Suddenly, Jia She's eyes turned a little red, and he ran to the bedside to touch the old lady's hand, and found that it was really cold, so he sighed deeply, "Let the eldest wife and second mistress take care of the funeral."

The funeral at the mansion has already been prepared. Jia Lian is not good at being an official outside and doesn't even care about his face. Now that the Rongguo Mansion is in full swing, the old lady's funeral must follow the old lady's routine.

Jia Lian had only been back for a day, and the mansion had been suspended. It was obvious that his official position could not be kept. Many people were thinking about replacing him, especially those who were already doing business with Jia Lian at home.

There are more than one or two who are jealous of Jia Lian, and not one or two want to replace him. Three years is not a short period of time, and it is not impossible to change things into right people and wrong people. Divided a lot in the past.

They were all people who came out after him, not to mention face, even the new emperor who was sitting next to him didn't know what kind of character he was, if he was replaced by a shameless person, it would be very hard to say what the consequences would be.

Instead of this, it is better to wait for three years. The three years have passed extremely quickly, just enough to put all Jia Lian's properties on the right track, and God knows how much mess he still needs to clean up in those properties.

The Rongguo Mansion was suspended, and Jia Lian, who was at home with leisure time, began to prepare for the old lady's funeral. This funeral was not much worse than that of Jia Daishan in the past. All the relatives who were supposed to come came. Come to join in the fun.

The money was spent tens of thousands of taels, who can use this to slander Jia Lian for not being filial?

After more than two months of busy work, he was finally able to close the gate of Rongguo Mansion and recuperate at home.

The king of Beijing Jing had already sent a gift and a letter as soon as he arrived, not only to appease Jia Lian, but also to assure him that he would definitely be able to return to his post in three years.

Just look at Jia Lian. Now that he has come to this point, how can he completely delegate power?What does it look like if you don't have power in your hands? They Rongguo Mansion have less experience?

Like grandfather Jia Daishan, carefully mediating with the Holy One will not only keep the family safe, but also make it difficult for others to attack easily. If you hand over all the resources in your hands like those old scholars, then you will really be abandoned. .

He knew what kind of physique the old lady had. He had already started preparing for it all these years, so how could he be afraid when things came to an end? His chances of recovery are much better.

Jia Lian's allegiance to the new emperor was not because he valued him for anything, but because he knew that he would eventually ascend to the throne. He was afraid of the new emperor and obeyed his words as an imperial edict, also because he would ascend the throne sooner or later.

Now that he has ascended to the throne, he is no longer that useless young man, and he is no longer that trash who needs to lick his face to get on.

So, he is not in a hurry.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, let everyone know what Jia Lian is capable of.

Everyone says they can do business, but there are a few who really know how to do it, not to mention that they have never controlled such a large industry, and if they appear suddenly, they may fall badly.

The king of Beijing Jing had tried this, so he had some experience, and the new emperor knew it well, so he didn't think about going against Jia Lian, but the emperor was still stubborn and wanted to seek greater benefits from Jia Lian.

Jia Lian had only been home to observe mourning for two months, and his housekeeper was replaced. The officials in the Northwest were replaced by a dozen, and Jiangnan also replaced five or six. Those who didn't know would definitely think that the new emperor was planning to intervene, but Bei Jing Both Wang and Jia Lian knew that it had nothing to do with the new mermaid emperor.

If there is anyone available under the new emperor, the two of them already have a roster in their hands. They are not people who have been inspected by the new emperor. With his temperament, he will definitely not use them.

This first trial, but within a month, was completely over.

They are all old oily people in the business field. If they don't give enough benefits, they won't hang out with you. They don't even see your methods, so they won't follow easily. They don't even see the real account books. , How many industries have to spend a lot of energy to detect a trace, wanting to participate in the dividends of money, it is simply a dream.

With just a few officials, the Northwest and Jiangnan have not been taken down, and the general direction cannot be changed. If the emperor and the new emperor really want to make a move, the price they need to pay will be extraordinary.

The ones with money at the top may change. The ones who are really doing things are not that you say you want to change the boss, and he can bear it. They are all for Jia Lian's name. Once they collapse, they may really return to zero.

Therefore, not only did the new emperor's actions not have good results, but even the quarter's profit was reduced by half, and the reasons were clearly written, which probably still depended on those few officials.

Of course, the emperor would not stop there, but after a year, the noisy craftsmen were physically and mentally exhausted, inspecting and teaching them every day, and staring at them like criminals, what are they going to do?

What's more terrible, once they didn't do good deeds, someone would come to blame or even whip them. The craftsmen who had experienced such things were disheartened, and more and more people left. The team of thousands of people, in the After the New Year, most of them were scattered.

There are also a lot of craftsmen who are sick. After a little visit, you will know that they have gathered together in groups of three or four to work alone. They are all veteran craftsmen who have experienced things, and they have the name of Jia Lian's factory there. Working alone may not be worse than working in a factory. .

This year, even the new emperor can't just sit back and watch. More and more people are breaking up and working alone. Even the new emperor can't force them to come back, and the dividends this year can't even make up for road construction. Seeing that the national treasury is obviously shrinking, the new emperor is in pain.

Since there is not much money to be distributed, the wealthy households gathered by Jia Lian naturally become more and more vain and submissive. They are probably still planning to wait for Jia Lian to come back to take charge of the overall situation, even the words of the King of Beijing are not easy to follow.

But in two years, the good situation collapsed directly, the emperor gritted his teeth with hatred, and even the annual 80 taels shrank to 20 taels, and it will be even worse next year. He doesn't know how to hold those wastes accountable.

The new emperor simply asked Jia Lian to come back to take charge of the overall situation. Taking advantage of the situation that there was still room for maneuver, if the emperor really let the emperor continue to test, everything would be overwhelmed. Even if Jia Lian came back, it would take a long time.

Jia Lian, who reappeared in front of people, was naturally very proud of the spring equinox. Without the emperor's obstruction, he was happy and happy in the south of the Yangtze River. He brought Wang Xifeng and his clever sister, Brother Mao, and wandered around while doing business.

King Beijing also settled down in the south of the Yangtze River, and he was going to learn how to manage accounts with Jia Lian.

With Jia Lian's presence, coupled with his kind smiling face, how should the interests be divided, but now he just makes a concession, the big guys are easy to discuss, and they are united again.

As for the missing craftsmen, Jia Lian gave higher revenge and made various protection agreements, and finally snatched those craftsmen back. Those who really left were the most powerful ones, and only those with mediocre craftsmanship , will continue to endure in the factory.

It took a full two years to finally return to the beginning, but the silver allocated by the emperor was still not enough to 80 taels, at most no more than 60, and he could only hold his nose and swallow it, it was better than nothing.

In the northwest there are now more and more people following Jia Lian, in the poor mountains and rough waters, everyone wants to gain a foothold in the army. The treatment of the army is not bad, and those who follow Jia Lian to run errands are not bad.

The squares and cities were built one by one, the bandits were killed one by one on the road, and the strong men patrolled everywhere on the road. Even ordinary people felt at ease walking on the road. Not too expensive.

It seems that in just a few years, the prices of things that were really expensive before have gradually dropped a lot, and the output of the fields has also increased day by day. As long as there is food, the people will not be afraid of having children. It feels like a peaceful and prosperous age.

Afterwards, after roads were paved in most places, the Northwest was also expanding the city outside, and building a city could occupy a large area of ​​land. The barbarians who always came to rob seemed to have nothing to do with them. With so many firearms in hand, the barbarians It's hard for people to get close.

All his life, Jia Lian has been busy expanding and expanding, and he has never stopped for a moment, and he doesn't like to stay in the capital to add trouble to the emperor.

With his obvious disregard for rights and his personality of only thinking about earning money, the emperor can only let him waste money and see how long he can waste money.

It’s just that no one knows that Jia Lian can live to be 80 years old, and he still wants to go to sea to see. After the Wang family’s maritime business was picked up again by him, a boatload of good things was brought back, which made many people envious Jealous and hate.

However, not many people have the ability to build such a large ship like Jia Lian. He even has iron ore and copper mines in hand, and the firearms he built are not even dared to touch by pirates.

All in all, Jia Lian has been very busy in his life, but it also raised the title of the Rongguo Mansion to another level--Prince of Rongguo. The name of the princess.

As for Wang Xifeng, the title of Princess Prince is enough for her to never have to worry about it in her life.
