Fairy Road Return [comprehensive]

After the old lady returned home, Yunyao knew the next day that the old lady slept soundly that night and did not wake up in the middle of the night. In the eyes of Jia She, Jia Wei and other grandchildren, Master Rong Yuan really has some real skills One day, after my grandmother worshiped Buddha, she actually cured her insomnia symptoms.

When Jia Daishan came back to see his mother looked good, he no longer had the inexplicable sense of depression before, and he also greatly admired Master Rong Yuan to Yunyao, and finally said with a smile: "I knew that old monk had some real skills, I won't run on him yesterday, and tomorrow I will go to Qingyuan Temple to meet him in person."

Yun Yao was sweating profusely in her heart, it was only natural for this person to pretend to be 'Jia Daishan', if it were any other traveler, she would be too frightened to enter the temple at all.

Afterwards, the old lady devoted all her attention to Jia Amnesty's marriage. The process has been up to now, and there are no problems anymore. She is waiting for the big wedding on March 28.

On March 25th, Jia Daishan came back three days ahead of schedule. After all, it was the eldest son’s big wedding, and he paid enough attention to it. Besides, his daughter-in-law’s natal family was one of the best scholarly families. The Zhang family master and his children and grandchildren were not other scholarly families but embroidered pillows. , the three sons of Mr. Zhang all passed the imperial examination. Although the three young masters are not ranked first, they are very high in the second rank. All three of them are like this. They play steadily. Mr. Zhang may soon be a cabinet scholar. Members, the Zhang family is favored by the prince again, this family has a bright future!

However, his son's marriage and trivial matters did not require Jia Daishan to worry about, so the next day he took a stack of ledgers to find the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs.

It has been two months, the military academy has been built, and it has initially achieved what he planned, but the money is drawn quickly, and now there are only 1 taels left in the account room, and the hard stones purchased from other places will be paid tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. , the money will be reduced by half again.

When He Shangshu saw Jia Daishan, his face became elongated instantly. Although he hadn't seen Jia Daishan during this period of time, he met with the household department doctor he allocated to Jia Daishan once every ten days or so. He knew exactly what Jia Daishan was doing. Why come.

"My lord, the official said clearly that the household department has no money." He Shang said expressionlessly in writing.

Jia Daishan put his arms around He Shangshu's shoulders and said, "Brother He, how can the household department have no money? If the household department has no money, the common people will suffer."

He Shangshu pushed, but did not push away Jia Daishan's hand, and snorted coldly: "If you have money, you don't allocate it. You have already spent 10 taels in two months. When your military academy is established, you will have to invest money from the Ministry of Households for a long time." .” Isn’t this an extra 200 million taels of silver every year?

Jia Daishan had a thick skin, he needed funds no matter what, and was thinking about how to argue with He Shangshu when he heard He Shangshu say in a displeased tone: "Didn't the Duke of the State always claim to be a loyal and loyal person to serve the country? With all my heart to solve your majesty's worries and problems, why don't you replace the money owed by your ancestors?"

"Ah, what?" Jia Daishan blinked: "I owe money? When did I owe money to the household department?"

A quarter of an hour later, Jia Daishan looked at a thick stack of IOUs, and He Shangshu took out the IOU from the Rongguo Duke's Mansion, which not only had the Rongguo Mansion's stamp, but also his father's autograph.

He randomly picked out one of the IOUs from the stack, and it happened to be the one from Ningguo Mansion. The amount on the IOU was the same as that of Rongguo Mansion, that is, the handwriting was different. The stamp on it was from Ningguo Mansion, and the autograph was from his uncle. handwriting.

Jia Daishan felt embarrassed that the Rongguo Mansion really owed the Ministry of Households 50 taels of silver.

"Master Shangshu, let me make some preparations for the money owed, and I will pay it off in a few days." Jia Daishan estimated the assets of the Rong Mansion and found that the cash in the warehouse may not be enough, but he still has several 10 taels in his private treasury, which should be enough. Pay off the bill.

He touched his head, dug and dug from the depths of his memory, and finally dug up the news about the money owed.

This owed money was borrowed by his father at the beginning of the founding of the country.His father followed the Tai/Zu to conquer all those years and didn't save much. After the founding of the country, his father's assets were used as a dowry to marry his mother. The Tai/Zu Emperor felt that he owed a lot of confidant ministers , and allocated a settling-in allowance for each household from the newly established Ministry of Households, Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion were 50 taels each, and ministerial mansions like Laozhen Guogong who already had wives were less, basically It was two to three hundred thousand taels. Then his father and all the uncles were sincere and felt that they could not take advantage of the court, so they wrote the IOUs unanimously.

Emperor Tai/zu and Shizu felt that it was not a big deal to support important officials, but what about the future emperors?The ministers of the household department must be very displeased with their group of ministers who wear silk and satin, eat delicious food, and still owe money to the household department. However, there are too many people borrowing money, and the emperor did not ask for the owed money. He Shangshu is not good either. The crowd was angry, so when Jia Daishan bumped into his hand, he happened to be a slingshot.

Jia Daishan didn't take it seriously, he always felt guilty when he owed money to others, so it's better to pay it back, so as not to leave a big hole for future generations.

When he returned to Rongfu, he was busy all over the place, pasting window grilles, couplets, and hanging red lanterns. The old lady sat in the yard and watched her two grandsons and servants working together, with a kind smile on her face.

Jia Daishan dragged a chair and sat in front of the old lady. The cash in the treasury could only be used for 20 taels, and he paid the rest himself. After making a decision, he said, "Mother, my son will discuss something with you."

The old lady turned her head and asked in surprise, "What's the matter?"

As soon as Jia Daishan told about the money owed, the old lady's face turned down, and she said after a while: "Your father slapped his face swollen to pretend to be fat. If you don't tell me, I still don't know where the so much money in the mansion came from." .”

"Haha." Jia Daishan couldn't help laughing, even though the target of the ridicule was his father, his father did have a swollen face to pretend to be a fat man. He obviously had no money, but in order to show off in front of his wife, he borrowed money from a rich and powerful friend. A large sum of money has not been paid back until now!

The old lady knocked on her son's head and glared at him: "It's not big or small." Finally she said: "Then let's pay it back. Mother has a lot of private houses. I'll take 20 taels from the treasury, and the remaining 30 taels." , mother comes out."

So the mother and son began to argue. Jia Daishan refused to let the mother pay, but the mother insisted on paying. In the end, the mother and son had to compromise and one would pay half.

After getting an affirmative reply from her mother, Jia Daishan talked about this matter with Yunyao at night. There will be a dowry, so she doesn't need to own too many assets.

The next day, Jia Daishan went to Ningfu to find Jia Daihua. Jia Daihua knew what he wanted to do as soon as he heard what he mentioned.

"He Shangshu is testing your knife with you. It's better for you to hit the knife edge yourself!" Jia Daihua glared at his cousin angrily. He felt that if he died early, it must be because he was too worried about his cousin during this time. As for being tired, it never occurred to him that his son and grandson didn't worry too much, but he had to worry about his cousin?

Jia Daishan scratched his head: "I know, I forgot to owe the money before, otherwise I would have paid it back. Cousin, do you think you can still sleep peacefully when you owe the money to the household department? Are you not afraid that the emperor will settle the account later? Pay it back , I am debt-free and light-hearted! Besides, I didn’t want to pay the debt on purpose, and if anyone told the Minister of the Household Department not to allocate military expenses to me, then I had no choice but to sacrifice myself fearlessly.”

Do you really think he is a fool?He is famous as a teacher!

Jia Daihua was suddenly so depressed that he couldn't speak, the cousin really had any reason!But does he know how many good things he said behind his back?

What Jia Daishan wanted to do, Jia Daihua couldn't stop him, so Jia Daishan walked forward, and Jia Daishan sent letters to his family friends. Of course, his words were biased. He said that his cousin had developed limbs and a simple mind. To repay the money owed by the ancestors, but the cousin is mainly for the military expenses of the military academy, but what about this matter?If it affects the whole body, there will definitely be movement in the court. Let everyone forgive me, don't hold grudges, they were also calculated by He Shangshu.

The four kings, eight lords, twelve lords and twenty-four uncles, the Jia family and the two kings, three lords, three lords, and six uncles have a close relationship. However, over the years, some exchanges have been ordinary, and some have become closer. Originally, the King of Beijing and the King of Nan'an, The House of Bowling Marquis should be two very similar families, and now there is a little rift between the two kings, so it's good that Marquis Bowling's House didn't become a mortal enemy.

At night, these gentlemen returned home, took the handwriting from the housekeeper, and after reading it, they immediately frowned fiercely, feeling a little bored in their hearts, is it Jia Daishan again?But Jia Daihua can still inform them in advance, even if he still remembers their friendship, but for this matter of owed money, let's make a decision after seeing the effect.
