The Honest Man of the Red Chamber

The couple started talking on the bedside. Jia Zheng knew the hard work his wife had put in for this hustle and bustle. This year, Shanxi Curry will add 5000 taels of silver. In fact, it can be said that it is entirely the credit of his wife.He also had to take 2 taels out of it and distribute it to the subordinate officials, so that they would all get a share according to their ranks, and let them know that if they followed him, they would have soup to drink... and the wife who worked the hardest used the entire blog Wei Lou made arrangements for him to create momentum. If he knew that he had to distribute the money to those people, he would definitely feel uncomfortable.

"You take the money that Jia Zhen handed over."

How much can make up for the expenses of the wife? Jia Zheng thought that today's expenses are a bit big. After checking the deficit several times, he wished that those people would not eat. Now, cash the silver and let him hand it over to the treasury!

Wang Guizhi nodded. To be honest, the Bowei Building is not open now. Needless to say, it was built. After all, it is bigger than the Zhenwei Pavilion. Her requirements have also changed a lot.

"In a few days, we will be sealed, and I will be able to accompany you well."

Ever since I came to Shanxi, I haven't even eaten with my family a few times.

"Well, after preparing the year-end summary, we are about to celebrate the New Year." Wang Guizhi heard him say this, and his eyelids gradually became heavy. It turned out that it was another year, and time really passed so fast.

Because the source of the canal fell into the water, even if Hou Xing and the others wanted to join in the fun at the Bowei Building, they couldn't help but send him home first, lest he catch cold and get sick in winter.

Seeing this, his mother Qi hurriedly asked someone to bring hot soup to bathe her son, and hurriedly asked the kitchen to make cold soup. Did he fall into the water?"

The servants didn't dare to talk nonsense, they couldn't say that the young master Hou wanted to see the demeanor of the top ten beautiful prostitutes, but he flirted with the wrong person, and let the boat lady hit him with a single blow, so that the young master suffered the disaster of the fish pond, right?Although the young master has a good temper, he doesn't like their talkativeness.

"Hmph, why didn't you say anything! You thought I wouldn't punish you if you didn't say anything?" Seeing them like this, Mrs. Qi was even more angry. The master went to accompany the new Chief Secretary. In order to prevent the youngest son from thinking they were unfair, he got a boat early so that he could watch the fun, and asked him to take his friends along. Who would have thought that he would actually fall into the water!

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the water is freezing to the bone, what if her baby is frozen to death!

"Mom! I'm not made of mud, but I accidentally fell into the water, and the water is shallow, it's just that my clothes are wet." Qu Yuan came out with his hair down, and gave the boys kneeling on the ground a look, They retreated quietly.

Sure enough, as soon as his son came out, Qi Shi didn't care about admonishing his servants, "Yuaner, why don't you soak for a while, quickly, bring the cold-dispelling soup, ah, water is still dripping on this hair, quickly bring a towel Dry it for the young master, move the cage stove over to dry..."

Qu Yuan obeyed his mother's instructions, anyway, his mother couldn't stop talking, so she asked him again after a while, "Is it lively today?"

"It's lively! A lot of people have gone there! When it's getting dark, Boweilou also distributes Laba porridge for those people to eat. I tasted it too, and it tastes very good!" Qu Yuan agreed, and the new chief secretary was indeed in a good mood. It's different, and I care about the common people, "Mother, you can also go to Boweilou in the future."

"What are you doing there, mother? They are all stinky businessmen who are officials." Qi Shi stroked his son's black hair. The master is in business. When he had the roots of the eldest son, he often stayed away from home for three to five years. Now She only got this little son in her forties, and she loves it like a treasure.

Qu Yuan said with a smile, "The Bowei Building is different. It has a lane that only female guests can pass through. The boat lady will take the awning boat to the small viewing building, where they can eat vegetables and watch a show."

"Really?"

The Qi family also immediately became interested. If there were no banquets and people were invited to perform operas and sing at home, some places saw the master's business getting bigger and bigger, and she would not be as convenient to go out as before.

"Ah."

Qu Yuan thought that the Bowei Building really deserved its reputation, so he looked at its stage and realized that it was really different. They were not very close to each other on the boat at that time, but although they could not see it very clearly, they could hear their voice clearly. .

"Laba has passed, and there are still ten days before the new year. We will also seal and seal the pen at that time. We will wait until the end of the new year to discuss everything. But everyone knows what is going on in the treasury. I, Jia Zhengxin, came here and received For the first tax payment, 5000 taels will be used to give everyone a good year."

Sitting in the hall, Jia Zheng looked at some state officials who smiled only after he said these words. He smiled wryly in his heart, and then said more seriously, "I have another thing to tell you. Before you seal it, you All the prefectures and counties have to give me an account. How can we make up for the deficit of more than 300 million taels in Shanxi? Even if everyone divides the task, it must be completed. How are you going to do it yourself?"

He stood up and said loudly, "This is the imperial decree, and it is also the most important thing Jia Zheng asked everyone to do! I took my wife and family to the post to show my determination. If you still want to be lazy, play tricks, and make lies, let If Jia Zheng can't complete the imperial order, don't blame me for not giving a good word first!"

"Your subordinates obey orders."

I hope they can come up with some good ideas.

Then Jia Zheng met with the top ten famous businessmen in Shanxi, and almost explicitly asked them to figure out how to cooperate with the government to do business and make money, otherwise they would have to spend money.

"Your tea, salt, leather goods, and ticket numbers have already been exported to all provinces of the country. To be honest, the government may not help you very much, but I think there is at least one thing that can still help you." Looking at them, "I have decided to do at least one major event for Shanxi during my term of office."

Qiao Yanxue stood up and asked, "What's the big deal? Qiao is willing to do his best!"

The chief secretary is open and sharp, can they really fight against the officials?

Jia Zheng said, "I want to build a Shanxi academy that can be as famous as the four major academies! Every Jia Zheng present here hopes to participate. It takes ten years to cultivate trees, and a hundred years to cultivate people. The merits of the school will last forever. I hope you all able to do their best.”

To be honest, he really has no idea in his heart. Shouldn't he talk more about profit with the businessmen?But the madam said that this trick let him try it first, and he must be [-]% sure.

When Wang Guizhi thought about the planning and actions of the government in the past, she really didn't understand it, and she regretted that she didn't watch the news before.However, apart from the existing banking business district and industrial development district, there are only schools. Think about Blanket Factory Middle School. Because of the high enrollment rate, tens of thousands of students and accompanying parents are forced to attract tens of thousands of students and accompanying parents in the valley every year. Hundreds of millions of local income generated!

Even if that kind of success cannot be replicated, at least the construction of the school can make the local people have jobs!This kind of infrastructure construction will last for thousands of years, and the businessmen have money, how can anyone be an official if they don't want to study?Water flows to low places, but people go to high places!

Sure enough, when Jia Zheng said this, the wealthy businessmen present were all emotional. What does the Chief Secretary mean?Let them run a school?Really let them run a school together?

Qiao Yanxue thought, no wonder Jia's family is very good at learning. This year, more than a dozen Enke students have been admitted as scholars. It turns out that there is such a good official as Jia Gong who is dedicated to persuading students and attaches great importance to literature!

"I am willing! Please tell me, how much money do you want to donate for this?" He, Qiao Yanxue, is willing to pay for this money. At least in the future, the children of his Qiao family will no longer be afraid that there will be no good teacher to teach them!

"Yes, my lord, the waiting door is also willing to come out!"

"So do we."

Jia Zheng raised his hand to signal, and everyone quieted down. He smiled, "First of all, it can't be in Taiyuan City. After all, every inch of land here is expensive, and all kinds of games and places are easy to wear down the will. I want to imitate Yuelu Academy. It can be regarded as my personal wish, and I don’t force it. Please see how you discuss how to organize it. When the time comes, just show me the design and composition, and I will apply to the emperor for approval.”

"My lord, what do you mean? If we want to make it bigger, we can make it bigger. If we think it will cost a lot, we can make it smaller?" The ugly words must come first.

"Yes, when the time comes, I will only erect a monument at the foot of the mountain and leave your names on it. After the academy is completed, if you want to build houses at the foot of the mountain for students to rent, you only need to let the aboriginal people move out voluntarily." , I will award them to you according to your efforts. Or if you want to take care of the basic necessities of the college, as long as you ensure the needs of the teachers and students, you can choose well."

can this work?This is simply an empty-handed white wolf, Jia Zheng thought, all he had to do in this matter was give the emperor an offer, and they would be able to pay for the academy, and even the food problems of the invited scholars solved……

Qiao Yanxue was even more willing, but thinking of other people, "My lord, please let us discuss it before electing a representative to report to you."

"Yes! Back off."

"Yes."

Jia Zheng stood up and walked to the main hall of the government office. When he saw the words "avoidance and quietness", speaking of absurdity, I'm afraid the wife who built the road was even more absurd...

"My guest, I'm really sorry, Xiaoguanlou is reserved today."

"Ah! Book the venue! Who made such a big deal...I know, you guys won't tell...you really can't reveal it?"

"This guest, I'm really sorry."

"I see, what about tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow is fine. How many seats do you want to reserve? There are still two more."

"It's all booked!"

"Thank you, guest, for the ten taels of silver."

Yuan Chun looked at Wang Guizhi going to play in the water from Baoyu Meiyu, and couldn't help feeling a little worried, "The water is too cold in winter, and they are still young."

"It's fine to just play for a while. When they were young, they would go to some things if they wanted to. We just need to control them." Wang Guizhi didn't want to raise the children like flowers in the greenhouse. She said to Yuan Chun, "You too. In the same way, let you study, let you be sensible, let the nanny teach you the rules, learn some needlework that girls can know, not to restrain you to be exactly the same as everyone else, but to let you know what things you can do, Those things can be done within a certain range, and there are still some things you need to know to avoid. It is you who understand the rules, not to be controlled by the rules."

Today's three obediences and four virtues will have a new understanding in later generations. She has been working hard to let them live a different life.

"understood."

Yuan Chun fully understands why Mother Gu persuaded her to do needlework, but her mother clearly agreed, but still transferred her away.She had a particularly bright smile on her face, "Mom, I want to hear the song that the sixth beauty sang that day."

"Okay, there is a whole band in Bowei Building, I heard that the master will invite all his brothers to come..."

Wang Guizhi complied with his daughter's wishes, and seeing that it was almost done, he asked someone to pick up Baoyu and Meiyu, and the children played together, while he went to the other side to discuss matters with the principals of Bowei Restaurant.

After all, it’s the end of the year. Although Bowei Restaurant has only opened for a few days, the year-end summary still needs to be done. It seems that Zhenxiangfang has to open a branch, otherwise some ingredients will not be consumed. Even though Mrs. Qin’s talented husband is not available this year In the middle, but the ambition is not dead, and I don't know if Mrs. Qin can go to Shanxi for a while...

Hou Xing let the boat slowly turn around the Bowei Building, he never forgot the little lady that day, he still remembered the little lady's voice, oh, that was really like the sound of nature, and the beautiful jade light on her chest!Forget about it!

"She must be a peerless beauty! And she is gentle, kind, and compassionate. Even the boatman was given her purse! What a beautiful girl! Alas! Brother, who made you fall into the water that day, otherwise Maybe that day, I can meet her face to face, and then..."

"Dream your spring and autumn dream! People have long regarded you as a disciple and implicated us all. How can you say that it is a good thing. You are lucky that you didn't make brother Qu sick."

"Tch, let me talk about it, don't always criticize me, my father has already punished me. Why didn't the boat move today?" Hou Xing shrugged his shoulders, stood on the bow and looked around , there was endless music on the stage, but the former awning boats were also coming and going, today the water was quiet.

Qu Yuan turned a page of the book, without raising his head, said, "Today, Xiaoguanlou is booked out." Just now, his servant asked when he was going to book a place for his mother.

"Secretary room! Private room at Bowei Building! How brave, tsk tsk tsk, which wealthy wife is this?" Hou Xing was extremely envious, "Bowei Building is not cheap, you said that this private room is not available. Tens of thousands of taels of silver!"

"It must be tens of thousands of taels!" Qu Yuan smiled. In order to celebrate his grandma's 5000th birthday, the Qu family decided to book a restaurant in Xiaoguanlou. If you want to follow the birthday banquet of the old lady of the Jia family in the capital, it will cost at least 3 taels!

The big brother who went to ask the price turned pale, and the uncles and elders thought it might be just this once, so they gritted their teeth and paid 2 taels.

Although the Qu family has tea shops, salt shops, money shops, pawnshops, silk shops, medicine shops, etc. in various provinces, the expenses are still very high, especially this year, a large sum of money is said to be passed down through the ages. Money, all the money of his family's children have been saved.
