Enter Jia Amnesty from the Red Chamber

Reporting the results for the first time is a very, very important test.Jia Lian and Jia Rong, who thought they were well prepared, were all sharpening their knives, ready to kill.

As a civil official, Shi Jun looked at the thick manuscript in the hands of the two without expression, and moved behind the elder without a trace, so as not to harm Chi Yu.

"Bring over the things you prepared." Master She rarely showed a good face.

Jia Lian and Jia Rong's eyes lit up, and their mouths were almost grinning up to their ears, rushing up like offering treasures.

Both of these two people think that the things they have prepared are detailed and delicate enough, and they will undoubtedly be able to step on the other person. When the time comes, they will be praised by the master, promoted to a position and made a fortune, while the other party will be blush and voluntarily hit the board. Get whipped!

"Hahaha...Second Uncle Lian, you..." Jia Rong looked at Jia Lian in disbelief, looking at Jia Lian's hand under his armpit, never thought that Second Uncle Lian was such a Second Uncle Lian, who used such despicable and shameless words trick!Looking at the manuscripts scattered all over the floor, Jia Rong felt like crying, what should he do?

Jia Lian stretched out his hand as if nothing had happened, and presented the manuscript he had prepared respectfully and unhurriedly, and then stood aside politely, ignoring Jia Rong who was brewing emotions.

Master She ignored Jia Rong, who was about to cry, and seriously reviewed the materials prepared by Jia Lian.

What he wants is not simple. There are more than a thousand rouge shops in Yangzhou City, and he also wants Jia Lian to get the business status of those shops. A month is not too long. If you do it, you may not be able to do it in half a year.

But since he is so courageous and confident, many people in the magistrate's yamen have helped him.

The old man had to flip through sheets of information at a glance. Each sheet had information about five or six rouge shops. It listed in detail which ones in the shop sold well and which ones did not. If there are famous varieties, will also be specifically listed.

Jia Lian was quite confident at first, and he stared at the old man's face full of confidence. He learned a lot in the magistrate's yamen, and the teachings of his fellow prefects, policemen and Master Liu were quite useful. Now he He can also deal with things alone, maybe in half a year, he should know the magistrate's office like the back of his hand.

But after staring at it, I found that the old man's complexion did not change from the beginning to the end, and there was no expression from the beginning to the end, and he gradually began to feel a little guilty.He didn't dare to raise his head again, and stood like a quail to listen to the instruction.

Jia Rong, who was squatting on the ground to pick up materials, felt the atmosphere was a bit oppressive. She looked up at the old man, and then at Second Uncle Lian's cowardly appearance. How could the master approve it?

After a full cup of tea, Jia Amnesty finished reading the materials Jia Lian submitted, but he was not in a hurry to comment, "Lian'er, why do you think my master asked you to do this?"

Jia Lian was stunned, this question is a bit... hard to say what to do! !He definitely didn't want to be wrong! !

Jia Rong was also confused. He didn't know why the old man asked him to learn how to raise horses. What should he do? !Do you really want to be whipped?His father is not here, no one can stop him from being whipped!

Think about his skin and tender flesh, and the minced meat won't fly even after three or four lashes!This scene... seems a bit scary, what should I do?Can he lie down and faint for a while?He doesn't seem to be very confident in his own answers, but what should I do?

Seeing that the old man was about to start abusing people again, Shi Jun quietly walked a little closer to the blind corner behind the old man.

Only by following along can you understand deeply. Shi Jun is not the Xing family. He is a man with a wider vision, not to mention different focus points. He can see that the old man has been making arrangements. As long as it is suitable, he will dare anyone. No, there are certain positions that he needs to get. He will beat around the bush and fight against the Zhen family, but the results are always good, and when he punishes people, he feels that cultural people are terrible.

Don't you know who else in the governor's yamen dares to provoke the Grand Master She?The historians of the Jia family, even those of the Zhen family, dare not!Mentioning the old man is frightening!Thinking about it carefully, the elder was still kind to him, he didn't poke his weakness, and he didn't force him to die or live.

"Let me give you a reminder, the old lady will come to Jinling with the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit will promise me a fleet."

As soon as Jia She heard the words "old lady", he couldn't help but frown, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart.It's not that he doesn't want to be filial, but that he simply can't do it.

This old lady came to Jinling, the backyard of the Grand Master should be very lively again.

"You hate the old lady?" Jia She asked casually as if nothing had happened, but his eyelids were pulled down.

Jia Lian suddenly remembered that her second grandmother was injured a while ago, and hurriedly knelt down to admit her mistake, "I know I was wrong, I will be filial to my ancestors."

"Well! That's right. With her here, the other rooms will be more polite to you, and the people in the third room will no longer be the bosses. You don't live in Jinling, what can the old lady hinder you? You need to show that Lian'er, you really should learn to control your emotions, you are a man, you don't need to worry too much about people and things in the past, as long as you work hard to become stronger, who can control you like you did back then."

Master She rarely taught people like this, and it was rare for him to say such a long speech. Jia Lian knelt on the ground, tears were shed, and he seemed to feel a father's love that he had never had before.

"Son... Got it."

"Well! Lian'er, everyone in the world respects filial piety. No matter how bad the old lady is, the righteousness is still on her. You and I can't get along well, so we have to respect her. But as long as there is desire, you can Can be instigated, she can be your resistance, or your help, the key depends on how you do it."

"Son...thank you for your father's teaching." Jia Lian listened carefully with sincerity, imagining the changes in the attitude of his ancestors towards their first and second families these days, and felt that what the old man said was very reasonable, because that's what the old man did. And it can be done naturally without leaving traces.

"Well, guess again why Weifu asked you to do this?"

"Father, do you want to start from the road of Rouge, use the fleet specially approved by the Holy Lord, and abandon the shopping malls in Jiangnan to open up sales outside?"

"Speaking of a little bit. Lian'er, have you ever thought about why Zhen Yingjia can gradually control most of the Jiangnan forces?"

"Isn't it because of His Majesty's favor and his status as the eleventh prince?"

"Only nepotism? It's not just the Zhen family who are born in the harem by Jiangnan women."

"But other families are not like the Zhen family. They have the support of our four princes and eight princes! Back then, our four princes and eight princes were in the south of the Yangtze River, which was the top power. Who would dare to compete with other families? If it weren't for this, how could the Zhen family get up?" ?”

"Then why did our Jia family support the Zhen family so much back then? What does the Zhen family have? It is something that our four kings and eight lords cannot give up?"

"Silver! Zhen Yingjia made it in the south of the Yangtze River, and he won the favor. He earned a lot of money. It's not worse than Xue's family, but their family is more decent."

"Indeed, Made in Jiangnan! Our four kings and eight lords are all tempted, so how can other small and medium-sized forces not be moved? Zhen Yingjia won the position of Made in Jiangnan by relying on His Majesty's favor, which is the foundation of their family."

"Then let's take away her position in Jiangnan Manufacturing, shall we..." Jia Rong, a natural and innocent little brother, interjected with a smile.

Not to mention Jia Lian and Mr. She, even Shi Jun, who doesn't usually read much, thinks Jia Rong is too naive and innocent.

Jia Amnesty didn't scold him for interjecting, since he had a sense of identity with the Jia family, he would inevitably be more tolerant towards these silly obedient juniors, but he would still be extraordinarily ruthless towards disobedient dudes.

"Rong'er, how can outsiders be able to break through when the interests of the same iron plate are united? The Holy Majesty is far away in the sky, and someone else is at most just a puppet."

"Uh... that seems to be the reason." Jia Rong thought about Zhen Yingjia's insignificance, but he was able to control so many high-ranking officials, and the matter could be solved by giving him a position. Why didn't the Holy Majesty do it?

"Yes, I've heard it in Yangzhou. Among the shops I collected, those that can be related to Jiangnan Manufacturing are all married to the Zhen family, and the remaining profitable shops are also more or less controlled by the Zhen family. Protection, only those shops that are always being troubled by people are always without background."

While Jia Lian was talking, he was thinking about the question asked by the Elder Master, "So, the Elder Master wants to build another business route so that he can compete with Jiangnan Manufacturing? In this way, as long as there is profit to be made, someone will follow, and the Zhen family will naturally It is impossible to completely make Jiangnan a monolith."

After Shi Jun heard this, he shook his head, "No, just how can a fleet compete with Jiangnan's manufacturing, the exquisiteness of their goods and their long-established financial resources are not something we can casually fight against, so the master's Meaning, it shouldn't be here."

"That's right, things made in Jiangnan are highly sought after by the whole world. Those empresses in the palace are all proud to be able to wear Shu brocade made in Jiangnan. If we casually build a boat, it's like overturning him? Impossible !” Jia Rong thought it was right and agreed.

When Jia Lian was mentioned by them, he quite agreed with it, but if it wasn't what he meant, what did the old man mean?

The corners of Jia She's lips twitched, "The products made in Jiangnan are indeed good, but they are also expensive, especially the more delicate the things are, the fewer they are. We can't compare to her in terms of refinement, but we can surpass her in terms of psychological quantity. He sells If I make more money selling a thousand pieces than I do, then if we sell [-] pieces, won’t we make more money than him? It will also benefit more people.”

"Then how can we sell these [-] pieces?" The third pair of eyes stared at the elder Xi calmly.

"Then we need a fleet. If Jiangnan produces a lot of goods, we can bring them out and sell them. If you go further away, you won't be afraid that they won't be sold. There are so many people who want to buy cheap goods in Jiangnan. If they can get around three layers of connections, we need the rest. Seventy percent of it." Jia Amnesty had already figured out how to make a fuss.

Brothers and gentlemen may not be clear that the cost of Jiangnan products will be greatly increased if they are sold by peddlers or shipped there, but Jia Amnesty is different. What he wants is the army of the Holy One, an army that no one has just stopped He doesn't need to pay so much tolls, so more people can buy his things.

"This is just a preliminary and temporary plan. There are still many things to be added later. It is impossible for us to use the Holy Majesty's army on this forever. Lian'er, what you have written is not enough. Which rouge shop owners dare to follow?" Let's do it, and which rouge shops dare to follow us secretly, they need to be clearly listed."

"Understood!" Jia Lian nodded, he felt that it was more than that that needed to be clarified.After all, this can be regarded as a different kind of standing in line!He also had to prepare materials to persuade those people to join their team.

Jia Lian seemed to have found something to do again, and hurried back to Yangzhou.

Jia Rong was the only one left, who faced Jia Amnesty alone, dumbfounded.Jia Amnesty hadn't realized that Jia Rong was so stupid!so innocent!

"This is my document." Jia Rong sorted out the order of the documents before handing them to Jia Amnesty respectfully. Although he still found it difficult to do Jiangnan manufacturing, it did not hinder his admiration and respect for the Grand Master.

"Then do you know why my master wants you to learn how to raise horses?"

"Could it be... we want to raise horses and sell them?" Jia Rong blurted out that sentence, but Jiangnan has never been suitable for raising good horses, no matter how good they are.

"Heh, we are indeed going to do business, but we are not raising horses for sale. The Holy Majesty needs enough remuneration to provide the fleet. My lord promised that the first is grain and grass, the second is horses, and the third is cattle. There is more grain and grass in the south of the Yangtze River, and more horses in the north." Wagyu and sheep, unfortunately, these are not easy to transport, our fleet has to travel a long way to deliver supplies back and forth to the Holy One.”

"So, the lord is going to let me choose horses?" Jia Rong's face grew long when she thought that she would live on a boat in the future.

"Not only that, but you also have to choose horse feed. If you don't understand at that time, you will lose the horses, and you will definitely be beaten when you come back." Jia She smiled slightly, with a taste of gloating, "By the way, Shi Junhui As the deputy commander of the first voyage, the two of you will complete this matter together."

Standing behind Grand Master Xi, Shi Jun trembled suddenly, his eyes widened in disbelief. He didn't expect that he would not be hurt by Chi Yu, but would get a bargain instead. A trace of excitement appeared on his face, "Thank you, Grand Master."

This kind of work is quite brilliant when it is done well, the Holy One may pay attention to it!What's more, he can still hang out in the army, even if he's not on land, it's better than being a clerk, isn't it?Now he really doesn't pick!

Shi Jun was happy, but Jia Rong was dissatisfied. He is the heir of Duke Ning's mansion, and the future head of Jia's family. It's embarrassing!Is he not as good-looking as Shi Jun?

Somewhat sad and indignant, Jia Rong picked up his materials, and left listlessly like an eggplant beaten by frost.

Life is so boring!Dad, I may only be a horse breeder in this life, but what should I do!She will be crushed by that bastard Shi Jun for the rest of her life!

Let's talk about Jiangnan Zhen's family, there are so many people waiting for his family to have a confrontation with the four big families, so as to follow behind and pick up some bargains.However, it is quite intriguing that this powerful family did not move at all after being provoked.

If it was someone else, maybe they would have to fight Jia She to death if they were too angry, but what Zhen Yingjia wanted was extraordinary, what he wanted was to let the blood of their Zhen family flow on the next generation of emperors.

Therefore, when the family did not encounter major changes, he would endure it for the sake of the empress and the prince in the palace, because this is what His Majesty wants to see.

This person who brought the Zhen family from a third-rate family to what it is today is also a person who can bend and stretch. He has been figuring out the Holy Spirit for many years, and he can still see the direction of the wind when it comes to right and wrong.

The originally good situation was ruined by Jia Yuanchun, and Zhen Yingjia could only lament the bad luck.

He had fought against Jia Shen several times, and he gradually became able to see Jia Shen's intentions clearly. Just seeing him beating around the bush and negotiating with him to grab the position, he always thought that he had the position Jia Shen wanted, but in the end he looked carefully. Lian, but when he realized that he had made a big mistake, he no longer dared to underestimate this legendary old dude.

Even if he didn't make a move, he would still control the movement of the governor's office at all times.

Speaking of which, he was also very curious about how Jia She would poach his corner in the future. He knew that Jia’s family was not rich, and Mr. She’s treasury could not be exaggerated. The servants of the world?
