This news is indeed a great comfort to Mother Jia.After all, the Jia family's second room didn't earn a lot of money from open source, and now it's a little bit of savings.The moths in Zhuangzi are dug up, which can add a lot of income to Jia Mu every year.

Before Jia Amnesty left, she asked Jia's mother where she wanted to go in the future, and Jia's mother said that she would not go anywhere, and she would retire in Jinling.

"Alright, if mother needs anything, please write a letter." Jia Amnesty also learned the trick of His Majesty's drawing big cakes.

As for whether to answer or not, it depends on what the old lady wrote in the letter.As long as he didn't ask him to help Jia Zheng transfer out of Qiongzhou, he could still consider it.

Jia Amnesty took a deep breath when he left Jia's mansion, and was still a little emotional when he returned to Linlin's mansion.After so many years, today was the first time that their mother and son sat down and had a good chat.

Situ Chen thought about it for a while and nodded. This is really the case.

It is estimated that the old lady has experienced many changes in the past two years, and finally recognized the current situation.

"Enhou, guess what's going on at the Zhen's house?" Situ Chen couldn't help laughing as he said that, it could be seen that the Zhen's family was already in a hurry, ready to look for strange flowers everywhere.

Speaking of looking for flowers in the Zhen family, Jia She immediately thought of the Xue family.The Xue family is an imperial merchant, and they definitely have the property of flowers, plants and trees in their hands.The Zhen family is in trouble now, they have to recruit relatives and friends to make money.

Regardless of the original price of five taels or ten taels per pot of flowers, now they are all 50 taels.The Zhen family loves to buy it or not, and if they don't buy it, they will be accused of deceiving the emperor.

"Is 50 taels too much? What if the Zhen family finds another way?" Lin Ruhai didn't expect that Jia She would ask for 50 taels. He thought at the time that a pot of flowers would cost five taels of silver. It has been doubled ten times, and there is no room for bargaining at all.

It is true that the Xue family is an imperial merchant, but the Zhen family is also the local snake in Jinling.If the two families are torn apart because of this incident, and the Zhen family is made to target the Xue family everywhere in the future, it will be much more difficult for the Xue family to pass on Jiangnan news to His Majesty the Emperor.

You can't be too willful, you still have to focus on the overall situation.

Situ Chen nodded when he heard Lin Ruhai's words, and felt that Lin Ruhai's words were very reasonable.

"It's true that you can't disturb the imperial court just because of your own selfishness. Marquis Enhou, we have to calm down..." Situ Chen meant that since the Xue family and the Zhen family are not easy to tear apart, let them tear up the Zhen family's face. .

Anyway, the two of them had torn their faces many years ago, so it doesn't matter if they do it again.

Jia Amnesty also realized that they were fighting against the Zhen family, and they couldn't accidentally hurt the innocent Xue family.

"Hmm... This is indeed my lack of thoughtfulness. Then I'll buy all the flowers from Xue's family, so that Brother Xue won't be embarrassed at that time."

When buying things, you must always pay attention to first come, first served, unless the latter offers a price that is too high for the shopkeeper to refuse.

Before the Zhen family found Xue's house, Jia Amnesty slipped to Xue's house with oil on his feet, and Xue Qian was taken aback. "Why didn't Mr. Jia send someone to inform you before he came, so that I can make preparations here."

"I'm looking for Brother Xue for a big deal today. I wonder if Brother Xue is interested?"

Jia Amnesty didn't say anything, and only talked about Xue Qian's appetite after he wanted to buy all the flowers in Xue's family.

"Brother Xue, don't worry about moving it. I don't really intend to ask for this flower, but I'm just arguing with the Zhen family. Brother Xue will take the money first. When I get to the office in the future, I'm counting on Brother Xue to do me a big favor." ..."

After the road is repaired, there must be a caravan coming and going.Ordinary people either lack the courage or the strength, the Xue family is the best choice for cooperation.

The Xue family has always adhered to this principle of seeking wealth and danger.

"Master Jia, don't worry, I will definitely make the Zhen family bleed a little more." Since Xue Qian recuperated, he has a lot of energy to argue with the Zhen family.Although it is still not possible to tear apart the face of the Zhen family, it is still possible to disgust the Zhen family.

Selling a pot of flowers for 50 taels is a bit too much, but selling them for 30 taels is still okay.

As for the flowers in the greenhouse, Xue Qian patted his chest and said that the Xue family had a way to make him "odd"!

On the second day after Jia Amnesty finished looking for Xue Qian, Zhen Zhibang visited Xue Qian in person to find out if Xue's family had any more unique flowers. "Isn't it that the old lady is going to celebrate her birthday? My eldest brother and I are thinking about getting some fresh flowers to make the old lady happy."

"There are quite a few flowers, but I just don't know what Master Zhen wants." Xue Qian pretended not to know what Zhen Zhibang was thinking, deliberately making Zhen Zhibang anxious.As long as Zhen Zhibang loses his footing in a hurry, the initiative in this matter will be in Xue Qian's hands.

This is a flower for the emperor, can it be fooled by ordinary things?Of course, the rarer and more unique the better.As long as the Xue family has it, even if there are not many pots, the Zhen family will buy it for a price!

The business with big heads is the best, so Xue Qian immediately took Zhen Zhibang to the greenhouse in person.

Seeing that the greenhouse was full of common varieties, Zhen Zhibang almost had the words "You're kidding me" written on his face.Xue Qian didn't care about Zhen Zhibang's dissatisfaction, and then led Zhen Zhibang to the greenhouse inside.

Only by first suppressing and then raising can the peculiarity of the "exotic flower" produced by the Xue family last night be highlighted.

Carnation will turn red when it encounters vinegar, and turn blue when it encounters alkaline water. The Xue family suddenly wanted to make carnation half red and half blue.Among the colorful flowers, the ten pots of red and blue carnations are very conspicuous.

Zhen Zhibang's attention was immediately attracted by the ten pots of carnations, and he quickly stepped forward and asked Xue Qian to make an offer.

"Master Zhen, except for the ten pots, you can choose whatever you want. The ten pots have already been ordered, and all the money has been paid. This business is all about integrity, and I don't want to go back on my word..."

Xue Qian pretended to be very embarrassed, so angry that Zhen Zhibang stared and questioned Xue Qian, who dared to compete with the Zhen family at this juncture.

Knowing that it was Jia Amnesty who bought all the flowers, Zhen Zhibang was even more furious.

Well, you Jia Amnesty, I told His Majesty the Emperor that there are some rare flowers in the Zhen family, and then I went to Xue's house to buy all the strange flowers.Fortunately, it was discovered early, otherwise it would have fallen into Jia She's poisonous scheme!

"How much money did Jia Amnesty give you? I, Zhen Zhibang, will give you double!" It would be a big joke if the Zhen family couldn't even afford a few pots of flowers.

"50 taels...a pot." Xue Qian sneaked a glance at Zhen Zhibang as he spoke, seeing Zhen Zhibang stunned for a moment, he quickly withdrew his eyes.

50 taels of silver for a pot of flowers, wouldn't those ten pots of flowers be 500 taels!Even if Jia Amnesty's money came from a strong wind, how could Xue's potted flowers be so expensive?

Rare things are more expensive, are there red and blue carnations in other places?No... Even the Xue family only has ten basins.

"Why did Jia Amnesty buy so many flowers!" It couldn't be placed in the carriage to admire all the way, Zhen Zhibang wanted to hear why Jia Amnesty bought the flowers.According to Jia Amnesty's instructions, Xue Qian told Zhen Zhibang that Jia Amnesty wanted to see if the flowers could be made into flower cakes.

Spend 500 taels to buy ten pots of flowers, just to make cakes?

This is really "a cow chewing peonies", reckless!

"You take the 1000 taels of silver, and quickly send someone to take the flowers to Zhen's mansion carefully!" Zhen Zhibang didn't leave after saying that, he insisted on watching Xue's servants move the flowers into the carriage before leaving.He got 1000 taels of silver ticket easily, Xue Qian was so beautiful that he was bubbling in his heart.

Xue Qian said in front of Zhen Zhibang that there were only ten pots of this kind of flower. In fact, there were still a few pots that were sent to Lin Ruhai's mansion before dawn, so that Situ Chen and Jia She could see if the flowers produced by Xue's family were enough. strange".

Jia Amnesty touched the petals with his hands, and asked worriedly whether the flower scriptures could stand up to tossing or not.Bie Zhen's family hadn't delivered the flowers to the capital, but halfway the flowers withered so badly that they couldn't get them out.

If the Zhen family came to him later, it would be another troublesome matter.

The gardener of Xue's family hurriedly said that although the flower had been processed, if it was sent to the capital quickly, it would last for at least half a month.Even if it withers every half a month, it doesn't matter, it can completely depend on the transportation of Zhen's family and the weather in the capital...

Hearing what the gardener said, Jia Amnesty felt relieved.

"I've never seen such two-color flowers before, and the Zhen family can take them as auspicious signs." However, Situ Chen felt that if the Zhen family really dared to use them as auspicious signs, he didn't need to write a booklet to criticize the Zhen family. The fighting power of those censors is enough to impeach the Zhen family for half a year for this matter.

At that time, auzw.com only needs to disclose the Xue family's method of making such flowers to Yu Shitai, and he can stand aside and watch the show.

I don't know when the drama of Yu Shi's impeachment of the Zhen family will start, but the drama of Zhen Zhibang being taken advantage of in a panic will start soon.It's a pity that he couldn't watch it in person, Jia She felt a little regretful.

"It's wise to watch the fire from the other side, and be careful not to get caught in the fire." Situ Chen saw what Jia She was thinking at a glance, patted the back of Jia She's hand and said, "Go, how about trying the soup dumpling that you didn't eat yesterday?" ?”

Just before breakfast, Jia Amnesty heard Situ Chen's suggestion to eat soup dumplings, immediately put down the small flower shovel he just picked up in his hand, and followed Situ Chen to the shop yesterday.

Sitting in a shop and eating freshly steamed and steaming soup dumplings is not the same as letting the servants go to the shop to buy them, and the taste may change slightly.

The shop was just across the street from Lin Ruhai's mansion, and Jia She could not help but swallowed when he saw the steam billowing from the steamer stacked high at the door of the shop from a distance.

Xiao Er immediately recognized Situ Chen and Jia She as the two honored guests who hadn't eaten the steamed buns yesterday, hurriedly welcomed Situ Chen and Jia She into the room, and wiped the table and stools diligently.

"What do you eat today, guest officer?"

The steamed buns that I didn’t eat yesterday were of course the main content. Jia She ordered another assorted tofu and salted duck.Seeing that Jia She still wanted to say something more, Situ Chen immediately said enough before Jia She had thought about it.

It's not that these things can't be eaten in the capital, and coming here is just a taste of the authentic name.Anyway, I can stay in Jinling for another two days, just eat slowly.

It is not appropriate to order too much and cause waste.

Xiao Er quickly brought up the steamed Xiaolongbao.Looking at the paper-thin steamed buns, Jia She became playful.Pick up a small steamed bun with chopsticks and lift it to see when the skin of the steamed bun breaks.

Seeing that Jia She was having a good time, Situ Chen poked a hole in Jia She's steamed bun with a piece before Jia She could react, and the soup inside immediately flowed out.

Not to be outdone, Jia Amnesty drank the soup filled with soup dumplings in one gulp, picked up the small vinegar pot on the table and poured half a bowl of vinegar into the small bowl in front of Situ Chen.

"Stop making trouble, hurry up and eat." Situ Chen said and gave Jia Shen half of the vinegar in the bowl.Jia Amnesty picked up another soup dumpling, dipped it in a bowl of vinegar, took a small bite of the skin of the dumpling, and then sucked the soup into his mouth in one gulp.

"Really tasty……"

Time to enjoy delicious food is always pleasant, Jia She wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and asked Situ Chen, "Did you bring any cooks with you when you came out?"

Situ Chen nodded.As a prince, he came out of Beijing to act as the acting governor, and he must have all the people who serve him.Although the food Jia She cooked was very suitable to his taste, but Jia She had more important things to do, Situ Chen felt that Jia She's time should not be wasted on such things as cooking.

Occasionally, it's good to show your hands in the kitchen.

Jia Amnesty and Situ Chen didn't go for a stroll after breakfast, but went straight back to the Lin Mansion the same way.

After all, they were on their way to their place of employment, and if they were caught by the Zhen family wandering around Jinling, a lot of trouble might arise.

"But I'm back. The old lady sent someone to deliver a letter shortly after my brother-in-law left." Lin Ruhai immediately handed over the letter to Jia She after Jia She returned to the Lin residence.

Jia Amnesty glanced at the envelope without a word on it, and took it with curled lips.

Yesterday, I just wrote a letter when I had something to do. The old lady was really rude and sent him a letter before he left Jinling.

"Nine times out of ten, it's Jia Cunzhou's business again." Jia She felt that he had just talked to the old lady yesterday and asked Jia Zheng to apply to the Ministry of Households for the silver taels used to repair the government office. Now the old lady will definitely ask him to help the Ministry of Households. Approve Jia Zheng's application as soon as possible.

However, when Jia She opened the letter and glanced at it, he really misunderstood the old lady.

After Jia She left yesterday, Jia's mother has been thinking about whether it is really right for her to spend money to help her youngest son for so many years.She can help Jia Zheng when she is alive, and she can leave all her private house to Jia Zheng after she dies.

But no matter how much money is spent according to Jia Zheng's method, it will eventually be spent...

There has been a long-standing grievance between Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng, and he will definitely not lend money to Jia Zheng.Jia Zheng and his wife are not in harmony with each other, maybe they will fly apart when disaster strikes.

Mother Jia made up her mind this time, and just sent people to load all the materials needed for repairs into the boat, and let these materials arrive in Qiongzhou with the repair workers to repair the government office for Jia Zheng.

The silver that Jia Zheng wanted was not one or two.

"The old lady doesn't know what materials and how much is needed to repair the government office. She wrote me a letter about it." Jia Amnesty said and gave the letter to Situ Chen, but Situ Chen didn't know about it.Fortunately, the standards of the government office have rules, just ask the government office here in Jinling.

"Let's see if Jia Zheng can understand the old lady's painstaking efforts. I guess he can't see it with his brain, and maybe he will scold me for stirring up the relationship between him and the old lady."

Situ Chen patted Jia She on the shoulder, and told Jia She that Jia Zheng would only be able to stay in Qiongzhou for the rest of his life.Did Jia Zheng swear behind his back for so many years? Did he delay Jia Amnesty's earning money or delay his promotion?

Since there are none, it is assumed that there are stray dogs barking.

"Jia Zheng can scold you if you want to. You won't listen to you anyway." Situ Chen wrote the content of Jia's mother's inquiry into the letter, and asked Liu Yu to send it to Lin Ruhai. Tell Lin Ruhai about the matter.

Let Lin Ruhai be happy too.

Although Lin Ruhai was sitting in the yamen, his heart had drifted to nowhere.The little official who went to the port every day to watch hadn't come back yet, Lin Ruhai didn't know if the Zhen family bought some flowers from the Xue family at a high price and sent them to the capital.

The little official didn't wait, but Liu Yu, who delivered the letter, came.After opening the letter and reading it carefully, Lin Ruhai immediately sent the small officials around him to investigate the construction standards of the county government.Then he took out a purse and handed it to Liu Yu, asking the prince if he had other things.

"The lord also asked the little one to tell you that the Zhen family has bought ten pots of flowers from the Xue family, and they spent a total of 1000 taels of silver."

1000 taels of silver?Just ten pots of flowers?

Lin Ruhai opened his mouth unconsciously when he heard this number.His Royal Highness King Qin and his brother-in-law did a great trick, and they made the Zhen family spend so much money all at once, and they had to pay for the manpower and material resources needed to transport the flowers to the capital as quickly as possible and in good condition.

I admire you.

The data of the government office are all ready-made, and Liu Yu got the detailed data without waiting for a long time.Jia Amnesty wrote the necessary parts in the letter, and asked the young servant of the Lin family to run around and send the letter to Jia's mansion.

"It's better for us to patrol around in the early stage. Even if there is no official residence, it doesn't matter. It will be built when we come back from the tour."

Situ Chen just smiled and did not refute Jia She's words. It is a good thing to maintain an optimistic attitude in the face of difficulties...

"Lian'er has to listen to my uncle in Jinling. If she misses her father, she will write a letter. When her father receives it, he will write back to you." Jia She said reluctantly, rubbing his son's face.

Jia Lian tried his best not to cry, even if he couldn't hold back, he didn't cry out.

"It's not like Daddy won't come back, good boy..."

If it went on like this, it looked like it was going to be impossible to leave. Jia Amnesty touched the top of Jia Lian's head, turned his head cruelly and boarded the boat.Lin Ruhai hugged Jia Lian and waved back, wishing Jia Amnesty and Situ Chen a smooth journey.

"Brother-in-law takes Lian'er to exercise more, maybe I can hug another one in two years!" Jia Amnesty yelled, trying his best to restrain his emotions.

After losing sight of the pier, Jia Amnesty slightly raised his head and looked at the somewhat gloomy sky, trying to control his tears.

"Cry if you want, no one will laugh at you..."

Situ Chen patted Jia Amnesty on the back vigorously and said.Saying that directly, Jia Amnesty didn't want to cry anymore, and returned the handkerchief to Situ Chen with a blink of an eye.

"I hope that hard work will pay off, and I will live up to the past three years!"
