Rebirth of the Red Mansions: Jia Lian's way of turning over

"Yes, they belong to the Su family in Jiangnan. Speaking of which, the Su family and Mr. Lin's family are a bit hypocritical. It is said that Mr. Su and Mr. Lin are classmates, and Ms. Lin even attended the banquet in Bairi."

Jia Lian raised his brows, "It seems that I have offended someone who is not easy to provoke. Don't forget to ask Wang'er to back up the ceremony and make amends."

"Second Master, if you want to make amends, it's time to go to the sea. Our Jia family is like a toubob in Jinling. Those in our family have made troubles, and many of the fields under their hands are forcibly bought. Come here, and occasionally there are those who come across a backstage."

Jinbao has been in Jinling for a longer time, and knows much more than Wanger. During the past half a year, he has been with King Jingjing, and he is really used to knowing the dirty facts of Jia's family.

Jia Lian didn't expect that Jin Bao would say such a thing, but thinking about it, he followed the King of Beijing for a long time, and he probably heard the King of Beijing say something like that, so I'm afraid the new emperor knows all about it. .

This is a bit tricky. He doesn't like those people in the family, but it's impossible to get rid of them. However, the head of the family is not Jia Lian. He is considered a junior in Jia's family. If you lose your reputation, it's not good to be someone who bullies your own family.

So, this family has great advantages, but it also has disadvantages.

"Jin Bao, go and make a list of those who like to make trouble, and ask everyone in my family to gather in the old house tomorrow."

"Okay, but this list has been made long ago. It was the king of Beijing Jing who said that you will definitely need it." Jin Bao took out the booklet from his arms. ?

The pamphlet not only recorded the Jia family's herd of horses, but also clearly remembered all the good things they did, and anyone who was pulled out could be punished.

Although these are not considered evidence, there is no guarantee that the king of Beijing does not have them, so they should be disposed of as soon as possible, and the omissions can be filled in if possible, so as to save the tribe from making troubles and make it difficult for him to be a man.

If you think about it carefully, he is just a petty official!

Jia Lian rubbed the center of his brows with some headaches, and Jin Bao rubbed his head for him with a wink. Looking at his skillful appearance, Jia Lian felt that he should be frequently used by the King of Beijing.

Jia Lian felt a little better when he thought about the times when that scumbag was so angry that he got a headache.

If the King of Beijing was here at this time, he would be able to handle things much better. After all, the status of King of Beijing is very useful, at least he has much more confidence than Jia Lian in suppressing others.

Jia Lian didn't have time to be idle. Seeing that it wasn't too late outside, he continued to count the accounts of those shops in the south of the Yangtze River. It was so large that it was unavoidable to be scattered. The sooner you finish the calculation, the sooner you can feel at ease.

That night, many people didn't get much sleep. Jia Lian, an important figure who arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, directly muddied the water in the whole of the south of the Yangtze River. Those with a little status would inevitably murmur, but the ordinary people slept very peacefully.

Especially those craftsmen with some skills, since they entered the Jia's shop, they can get more money for their work, and they can also get some cheap household items from the Jia's shop, and even let those who are familiar The craftsmen helped to buy some households, which saved a lot of money.

Therefore, it is no wonder that the common people like Jia Lian, and if it can bring them benefits, of course they should be admired.

And those noble ladies also seem to admire Jia Lian very much. Because of the large number of craftsmen in Jia Lian's hands, the competition is fierce. The jewelry and rouge they make have various new styles every year, which are not as expensive as the usual ones. The victory lies in the ingenious use of the mind.

On the second day, just after dawn, Jia Lian got up habitually, and Wang Er followed to help tidy up the house.

Because there are no maids around Jia Lian, especially in the inner room, there is almost no maid who can come in, so the servants have to do these jobs. Even if these rough men are not as clever as the maids, they should become housework if they are used to it. Little expert.

This kid Wang Er never does these things at home, his wife and sisters are rushing to do it, and only at this time, he needs to fold the quilt and pass the clothes for his second master, and even have to give his second master Belt to organize the crown.

If it weren't for the boys who really don't know how to comb those hair that can be seen on the stage, Jia Lian might not even have a mother in this room. You can imagine how worried Jia Lian is that his second grandma Lian will be suspicious.

Ever since what happened to Ping'er, Jia Lian never dared to use any maids again. Most of them were women in their mid-fifties, who showed great sincerity to his family Lian's second mistress.

After letting the nanny fix his hair and appearance, Jia Lian went to the government office with his papers and official seals in his well-dressed clothes. His land had already been taken over by his subordinates, and his predecessor did not continue to live in it at all. with.

The master and the accountant were all replaced by people he could use, especially those clerks and accountant's helpers, who were more than ten times more than the Pundit government office, and there were hundreds of numbers in rough calculations People, if it wasn't for him, the person in charge, to live elsewhere, they might not be able to live in this group of people.

When King Bei Jing was in Jiangnan, there were not so many counting rooms, but there were more documents than now, and there were far more people who wanted to visit him as a prince than those who wanted to visit Jia Lian.

As soon as he got started, Jia Lian asked people to call all the little bastards of Jia's family to the Taoist government office, and compared them with the work under his hands, and arranged them carefully.

Those little bastards like to make troubles, it's all because they are free, he used to be the same way, those dandies in the capital are like this, and the Jia family dandies in Jinling City are also like this, they have arranged enough things for him, I am not afraid that he still has energy Noisy.

Thinking about it, the older generation who came to those little bastards' family also hoped that he could lead these kids to do things, but whoever dared to go home and complain would be beaten up!

Not long after, not only those little bastards came, but also their parents came to the door, all of them looked worried, afraid that Jia Lian would settle accounts with them, especially seeing who came here today Afterwards, it was even more embarrassing.

Compared with the elders, those little bastards are more fearless. Seeing today's posture, their eyes are red with anger. If Jia Lian has something serious to say, there is a high chance of fighting on the spot.

But of course Jia Lian is not afraid of them. There are hundreds of good fighters in his government office, and all of them have seen blood. It is no problem for one of them to beat a few of them.

Just as Jia Lian was frowning and sorting out the documents in hand, Master Liu quietly stepped forward and said, "Second Master, all the young masters are here."

"Well, please come in together, huh? Why are the uncles here too, but don't come in, just watch at the door. My lobby is not big, so there can't be so many people standing there."

As soon as Jia Lian finished speaking, a few short-tempered boys walked in first, looking straight at Jia Lian without any fear, and didn't care whether his master and wife would be worried behind him.

Looking at them at a glance, they nodded slightly, and all eighteen were present.

"You guys can be regarded as my Jia Lian's peers. The second master, I got a Jinshi in Jiangnan. Now that I have finally become a senior official, I want to support my ancestors' peers. I heard that you guys like to toss around. I think you are in good spirits. Er Lord, I am short of people here, would you like to hang out with me?"

The words were very straightforward, Jia Lian, who was sitting at the top, didn't even have any airs of officialdom, and just a few words made the lords and wives who were listening blushed.

"There is only one chance. Those who are on this list are all taken advantage of by the superiors. If you don't follow me, don't let me be a guarantor. Although I have become an official, I can only save face." once."

Jia Lian threw the brochure in their hands to the leaders of them, and when they saw it, they flushed with anger, "Jia Lian, don't scare us, we won't do anything like you."

"Don't follow me, just leave now. I didn't stop any of you, but I really lack people under my command, and I still lack people who can read and write. If you feel that you are incompetent, you can also leave. Then It's the same when I discuss with you, your masters and wives."

The lords and wives who were listening in the back were relieved, they were afraid that their son of a bitch would drive Jia Lian away with a stubborn temper, and they would cry without knowing where they were going.

Jia Lian has a lot of experience in dealing with dudes, especially these brats, who are the most unprovoked. As soon as Jia Lian said this, a few of them agreed to help, and said in a serious tone, "My lord, I have a lot of ability. ordered to go."

"Hmm, I'm afraid you are just talking about it. I have prepared some account books here, and I will take them back to study. After half a month, my government will go to investigate the matter of spring plowing and population investigation. When the time comes, I will be able or not. I will know."

Jia Lian signaled Wang'er to send out those account books, and they were prepared yesterday. Things like spring plowing are already considered easy, but the real difficulty is taxation. Only by describing and supplementing.

As soon as the group of boys opened the account book, they all tremblingly looked at their lords and wives, because they had never seen it at all. Although most of the Jia family were engaged in business, the young master of that family even came off in person, but sat at the head. The guy in the office is a good businessman, and it is absolutely impossible to follow him and not learn to read the ledger.

"Okay, just wait for me, I will impress you sooner or later, my lord."

"Okay, half a month is the bottom line. From now on, I will send someone to check your progress every three days. If you fail to keep up, you will be whipped three times. You agree!"

Jia Lian picked up the horsewhip on the long table, "It hurts enough to hit with the most common whip. If you want to give up, say it now, it's not shameful."

"Who would give up, young master, am I that useless person?" Not to mention, the group of boys hugged the account book tightly, as if they were afraid that someone would snatch it.

Jia Lian nodded in satisfaction, "Okay, Second Master, I'll wait to see which one of you can become a talent. Okay, we've finished talking about your affairs, go back, and it's your master's and wife's turn to do the rest."

The group of boys were willing to leave, and they all gathered around the door to listen. There were more people standing in the lobby this time, but it was much quieter than before.

Jia Lian finally put on a smile and said respectfully, "Everyone here is Jia Lian's uncle, but Jia Lian has something to say first, even if Jia Lian is not the head of the Jia family, he is still the leader of the Jia family's generation. People, Jia Lian will not be polite to anyone who insults the Jia family's name."

"The original matter should be dealt with properly. The new emperor has long held the handle of our Jia family. If you don't listen to the persuasion, Jia Lian and I have nothing to do. We can only kill relatives righteously, so as not to implicate the entire Jia family. Even my Jia Lian has fallen, and our Jia family really has no room to maneuver."

Jia Lian's eyes lingered on the uncles, "What you have done is still within the tolerable range. If it is not easy to deal with, or if you are short of money, I can pay you on credit in advance, but you can't just make up for it. Only ten days are given, and after these ten days, they will be checked one by one, and it will not be a whip to serve them."

At this moment, the Jia family took out a family law, "This is the family law in my old house in Rongguo Mansion. If anyone fails to deal with it after ten days, he should repent in front of his ancestors and receive a hundred lessons. of."

Although the tablets in the old house of Rongguo Mansion are not there, all the high-ranking and powerful people in the lineage of Rongguo Mansion were once spared in it. Without these people, there would be no glory like it is now.

One must know that the Jia family's success to this day is due to the continuous re-election of the Duke of Rongguo Mansion, and the Ningguo Mansion is relatively weaker.

Jia Lian said this so bluntly that many people blushed with anger, but since their own children had to hang out with Jia Lian, no one said anything.

Seeing this scene, Jia Lian was quite satisfied, "By the way, uncles, I am afraid that my cousins ​​need to study hard at home these few days, so you can help them find some powerful accountants and teach them a little bit carefully. Jia Lian's property is too much to manage, it's better to be watched by people from the clan than to be watched by outsiders, it's the best way for everyone to make money together."

"Brother Lian is right. You cousins ​​are just not very sensible. You are so born. You will definitely become a talent."

"Yes, yes, our child is still very smart, but he just doesn't want to learn. If he is willing to learn, he will really be blessed by his ancestors."

"No, they all like to go around and molested other girls. You said that those ordinary girls are better than your own girl, but my girl doesn't like it and wants to moles those good girls, causing so much trouble."

"If you want me to say that they are having too much fun, I thought they were going up the mountain a while ago and thought they were going to burn incense. I didn't expect to see if there were any girls bathing on the mountain. You said there could be Is it a girl? A big girl can take a bath in the wilderness? I don’t know if it’s because I’ve read too many scripts.”

The uncle at the bottom didn't make a sound yet, but the aunts who followed at the end spoke first. This group of elderly ladies love to talk the most, and the whole lobby is noisy when they talk.

But when they taunted them like this, the little bastards who were listening outside were not convinced, although there must be no girls outside.

Jia Lian tapped on the table lightly, and when the voice quieted down, he said slowly, "Everyone don't have to worry for a while, the whip is here, and you will see it in three days, but you don't feel bad to stop it when the time comes, boy But it can’t be kept in a deep boudoir, it will be useless if the bones become soft.”

"Nephew is right, can this kid be raised in a deep boudoir? That's what the loving mother Duo Baier said, nephew, you can rest assured to come and check, if my mother-in-law dares to stop her, she will definitely not let her look good."

"Yo, you are so arrogant, how do you want me to look good?"

"I don't want you to get out of the second door. I'll take that little bastard to the front yard to beat. You may not be able to catch up after three lashes."

"you……"

"Okay, stop making noise!" Jia Lian knocked on the gavel several times, and when the lobby became quiet again, she said with a smile.

"If someone stops me when Jia Lian sends someone to check, then the next time the person who comes to the door will not be the accountant, but these arresters, let me catch one and close the other in my house. If you dare to come If you make a fuss, I dare to throw people out and ignore them."

"Do you know what will happen to the clansmen that I, Jia Lian, don't care about? The new emperor has already held the handle on your son. If Jia Lian makes it clear that he will not be guaranteed, he will be imprisoned within ten days. Don't think that I'm bluffing, the brochure was given to me by King Beijing Jing, what do you think it means?"

Speaking of which, who would not know the meaning of King Beijing, since the evidence of the crime was clearly written, and it was specially handed over to Jia Lian, just to give the Jia family a last chance to make up for it, if they miss it, they are afraid that they will be guilty of crimes. will be confirmed.

It wasn't until here that the people in this lobby started to get really scared.

"What do you want to ask? Do you want to ask me if I will be able to protect someone? It's a pity, even if I can, I won't go to protect him. After all, Jia Lian is only a senior official, so I don't want to collide with the new emperor. The opportunity is over." If you have given it once, it is not easy to ask for it a second time, otherwise our Jia family will become a spoiled and proud existence, and we will not be much better than the Zhen family."

"Presumably you will be begging the old ladies when the time comes, and they won't help intercede."
