Palace Flower as Employment [Red Mansion]
Chapter 41
The marriage leave was three months. In the first two months, Jia Qi didn’t go out at all, and went to hang out with his wife. In the next month, the situation outside became much easier. Jia Qi took Lin Daiyu to visit the famous places in Beijing. Of course, It is indispensable to take Lin Daiyu to eat all the delicacies in Beijing and China.
There is no way, most of the food is the best when it is just out of the pan. If you take it out, the taste is always [-]% worse.
Even though she was always brought by her husband and accompanied by a group of maids, women, and servants, Lin Daiyu still heard the enthusiastic pursuit of Songjiangkou City Bosi outside.
It's fine once or twice, but with more times, Lin Daiyu can't help but feel worried: "Where is that seat so easy to sit? These people, these people..."
Lin Daiyu couldn't bear to speak.
While peeling the chestnuts for Lin Daiyu, Jia Qi said: "Never mind him, they were stunned by the money, and it has nothing to do with us. Sister Lin, the chestnut cakes of this family are very famous, and they are as good as the ones we eat at home." It's not the same, sister, why bother to be unhappy because of irrelevant people? Come, eat chestnuts."
"You!" Lin Daiyu shook her head and said, "These people are blinded by wealth and power, and they only feel sorry for the women, children, old and weak in their families..."
What did Lin Daiyu not understand?
Where is the location of Songjiangkou Shipyard so good?Who else can pay 2000 million yuan in taxes quietly like Jia Qi?If it were any one person, without Jia Qi's means, without Jia Qi's understanding of those Westerners, without the support of Lin Daiyu's textile workshop, porcelain workshop, and tea garden and tea mountain, how many people would be able to collect so much money? tax?
But when Jia Qi was here, Songjiangkou was able to pay 2000 million silver in taxes. If the successor could not do this, even if the difference was only 100 million silver, it would be a crime!
Did no one in this court see this?Of course there is!
Not only many people can see that this Songjiangkou City Shipping Department is a hot potato at all, but quite a few people can also see that there is no successor for this position, the Supreme Emperor and Long Live are at all.It was about his own authority, the Supreme Emperor would not care about the death of one or two officials, just like Lin Ruhai back then.
Back then, Lin Ruhai, if he hadn't offered sweet potatoes, he would never have returned to the capital alive, and would have survived to death in the position of Yangzhou Xunyan Yushi!
But even if Lin Ruhai came back in the end, his foundation was hurt, and he still couldn't make it through in the end.
Back then, Lin Daiyu was still young, and although Lin Ruhai let her know the surface of many things, it was only the surface. After all, Lin Ruhai would not tell Lin Daiyu about the real things, he would only tell Jia Qi.
After all, Lin Ruhai is a father who loves his daughter dearly. He only hopes that her daughter can be well and live happily.
But for Lin Daiyu, for Lin Daiyu who grows up and always misses her father and recalls the little things when she was with him, she used to not understand when she was young, but now what else does she not understand?
It was the cruel officialdom that took away her brother, her mother, and finally her father, making her an orphan.
Although Jia Qi is always by her side, her father is different after all. Lin Daiyu hopes that her father can watch her get married, instead of missing her father, mother, and brother through portraits like now.
Jia Qi sighed, put the chestnuts on the handkerchief, cleaned his hands in the basin beside him, wiped them with the handkerchief beside him, and then said: "My sister knows how to sympathize with those people, how do you know, yes Are these women, children, old and weak working hard behind the scenes, wanting to get rich and want this position? Not everyone is like my sister, with a delicate heart, nor is everyone like my sister, who can not bend for money "
Lin Daiyu sighed, and said: "It's me, and it's all thanks to the blessings of my parents and ancestors. If it wasn't for my parents and ancestors, where did I get so much dowry? How many people in this world are as capable as you?"
"Hey, good sister, even half of my credit is my sister's. If my sister didn't fully support me, without those Zhuangzi workshops, where would I find so many high-quality silk? Those weavers and weavers are all from my sister's family. I got it out of training. Without my sister, even though I have great abilities, it would be impossible for me to make such great achievements."
"When I didn't know that my father had already given you the family's account book?" Lin Daiyu glared at Jia Qi, "What was trained in my family? I see, you were already preparing for today at that time! I Are you right?"
"Hey~ Those who know me, my sister also."
"Pfft! Glib tongue!"
Seeing Jia Qi pretending to bow to her, Lin Daiyu couldn't help laughing.
After laughing, Lin Daiyu really felt better.
In fact, Lin Daiyu understands better than anyone else, just like Jia's mother started all the chaos in Jia's family, the root of all the troubles of Great Wei in these years is the Supreme Emperor.What is even more worrying is that the Taishanghuang has a higher status and more power than Jiamu. More importantly, the Taishanghuang is the father of the current emperor, and Jiamu is only Jia She's mother.
Will Jia's mother wake up because of Jia Zheng's death, and will the Supreme Emperor wake up because of his son's death?If it was so easy for the Supreme Emperor to wake up, then when the old Prince Yizhong died, the Supreme Emperor should have woken up.
The fact is, for so many years, the Supreme Emperor has been lost in power from beginning to end. Even after losing his status, he still refuses to give up his power!
And those heavenly nobles with the posture of dragon and phoenix, those princes with their own demeanor, just like the old Prince Yizhong said, they are just Gu raised by the Supreme Emperor.
Lin Daiyu thought more than once that maybe Jia Yuanchun didn't commit suicide at the beginning, maybe Jia Yuanchun was executed secretly.
Lin Daiyu remembered that after Jia Qi went south, Jia Baoyu had a serious illness. After waking up, she recited many Buddhist verses, some of which were about Jia Yuanchun, saying: "In the past 20 years, durian flowers have bloomed to illuminate the palace; Three spring struggles and early spring scenery, tigers meet and return with great dreams."
Speaking of today, isn't there only the Taishanghuang and today's Wansui, who are worthy of Hu and Si?
Only these two can make Jia Yuanchun have to die.
Seeing Lin Daiyu getting depressed again, Jia Qi was very surprised: "Sister Lin? What's wrong with you?"
Lin Daiyu said: "It's nothing, I just remembered what Baoyu said in the past."
"Baoyu? What did he say?"
Lin Daiyu said so and so on, after Jia Qi left, how did Jia Baoyu have a fever, how did the medicine fail to work, how did Jia Mu pray, and how did two strange things happen. monk way.
When Jia Qi heard about the strange Taoism, his heart trembled, and he asked quickly, "Sister, did you let them bump into you?"
Lin Daiyu shook her head and said, "How is that possible? At that time, the old lady was still living in the ancestral house! The old lady didn't move here until Brother Bao and Sister Yun got married. At that time, the old lady took The whole family of the second uncle’s family lived there, but I lived with my parents in the Rongchanghou Mansion. The second brother Bao was ill, and my parents took the second sister-in-law there, but they didn’t let me go with the third sister-in-law. In the past. These are what my second sister-in-law learned from me later."
"Oh? Only big sister's? Not mine?"
Lin Daiyu thought for a while and said, "There is one more, it should be about Sister-in-Law Zhu."
As he spoke, he read Li Wan's verdict to Jia Qi.
Jia Qi said: "Haha, if you don't accumulate evil virtues and talk to people jokingly, you're not talking about Mrs. Zhu."
"You!" Lin Daiyu said, "is it time to make fun of others?"
Jia Qi immediately said solemnly: "My good sister, it's because of my difference. I thought that sister-in-law Zhu would be like this for the rest of her life. How could she have thought that she would wear a phoenix crown and Xiapei one day."
Lin Daiyu said angrily: "Is there anything you don't understand about these four sentences? The second uncle has such a result. As the second uncle's grandson, Lang Geer is definitely not qualified to take the civil service path, whether it is Jinshi or Mingshu It is impossible for Ke Ming to study economics. The only possibility for Sister-in-Law Zhu to be able to wear the Fengguan Xiapei is that Brother Lan went to join the army!"
"In this way, Sister-in-law Zhu's phoenix crown and Xiapei were bought by Brother Lan with her life. Is that so?"
Lin Daiyu was shocked by Jia Qi's expression: "You know everything?"
Jia Qi is so sensitive!
Jia Qi said: "I already know what it means. Sister-in-law Zhu's temper, I don't know it outside, you and I still don't know? If the second aunt got into the eyes of money and couldn't get it out, it caused a big disaster. If not, then she will be trapped in Fengguan Xiapei and Feng Wife Yinzi's demonic barrier and cannot get out! If she can wake up, it's fine, but if she can't wake up, it is tantamount to sending her son to a dead end with her own hands! "
Lin Daiyu said: "Yes, that's not the case."
Jia Qi said: "Everyone has their own temperament and their own way. We can only take care of ourselves. Others, to put it bluntly, are brothers of the same mother and compatriots, and there are two accounts! How can I manage it? That's a lot. I just take care of myself, plus half of you."
As he spoke, he took a chestnut and fed it to Lin Daiyu.
Lin Daiyu couldn't help but stare at him, then took his hand and ate it.
Soon, the chestnut cake is ready.
Li Fuxianji's chestnut cake is indeed a century-old signature snack in Beijing. It is limited every day, not to mention, and you have to wait.Fortunately, Jia Qi sent someone to Beijing to fix the private room three months in advance, otherwise he wouldn't be able to eat the chestnut cake.
There is still something wrong with the silk curtain on the Great Wall that Jia's mother gave Jia Baoyu.
Ever since he got the curtain, Jia Baoyu sat in the study every day, sighed and sighed at the curtains hanging all over the study, often stayed until dawn, and sometimes even got drunk, ignoring Shi Xiangyun at all. .
Shi Xiangyun was sad and sad, but he didn't dare to burn the curtain, so he naturally complained.
Before Jia Qi got married for three months, gossip began to gossip about Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, saying that the curtains hanging in Jia Baoyu's room were exactly the same as those in Lin Daiyu's room, and that countless people arranged them. All kinds of words made Mrs. Jia Shexing very angry.
The matter finally came to Jia's mother.
Seeing Shi Xiangyun crying and begging for forgiveness in front of her, Mother Jia suddenly felt very tired:
"Yun girl, do you want to say that I should forgive you, and it is wrong not to forgive you? I don't forgive you, but I am not kind enough. I am not the old lady at the beginning, am I?"
Seeing that Jia Mu's expression was wrong, Shi Xiangyun panicked: "Old lady, it's not me, really, it's not me."
"Then let me ask you, Baoyu likes the curtain, are you unhappy?"
"Yes Yes."
"Have you ever complained?"
"I... I... Old lady, it's really not me! It's really not me!"
Mother Jia sighed and asked the maids to pull Shi Xiangyun away, and said, "Is it you, is it important? Miss Lin is brother Qi's wife, brother Qi is capable and good at life, two or three million silver, give it to me." Just give it. Therefore, no matter Lian'er and Feng girl, or Cong'er and Ya girl, they will not be jealous of him, let alone do such a thing. The only ones who will do such a thing are you and Zhu'er Daughter-in-law."
"old lady?"
Shi Xiangyun panicked.
She knew that she had completely pissed off Mother Jia.
I just heard Jia Mu say: "You and Zhu'er's daughter-in-law plotted against my dowry private house, I don't feel annoyed, but you shouldn't ruin Miss Lin's reputation and drive her to death! What did Miss Lin do to you? Is it possible that she deserves to die for how much longer her dowry is than yours? Could it be that she deserves to die if she is married better than you! Or should I say! ?!!!"
At the end, Jia Mu was already full of anger.
Yes, Jia's mother is partial to Jia Baoyu, that's because Jia Baoyu was born with a background, and secondly, Jia's mother also needs Jia Amnesty to maintain a balance with Jia Zheng, so that she can continue to have a bright future in Jia's house, not early. Step back and be a mascot.
But, that was in the past!
Now Jia Zheng is dead and Mrs. Wang has been exiled!
The current mother of Jia doesn't have the capital to play any balance at all!Not to mention, Lin Daiyu is her own granddaughter, ruining Lin Daiyu's reputation will only do her bad but not good.
Jia's mother doesn't need any solid evidence to prove who did this kind of thing, there is only one thing she wants to do, that is, both Shi Xiangyun and Li Wan must be taught a lesson!
Mother Jia immediately had people call Jia Amnesty and the three grandchildren to her, and also sent people to the government to invite officials to be witnesses, and directly divided her dowry and private houses:
"This time, it all started because of my dowry and private house. I have been rich all my life. When Jia's family was at its best, I married into Jia's family. I started as a great-grandson's wife. Now, even I am about to have a great-grandson's wife. It's a pity that the family is unlucky, and such a big thing has happened just for that little money. Miss Lin, you have been wronged."
Lin Daiyu knelt on the side, weeping, and shook her head.
Jia's mother said: "The boss is a filial man. With him here, this family will definitely not short me. Therefore, it is useless for me to keep those things around me, but it is the root cause of trouble. Therefore, I keep 2 taels here. Silver, for future funerals and for the girls around me. As for the remaining things, some are my dowry, some are left to me by the old man, and some are filial to me when Lin and her mother are around. Things I have already sorted everything out. At the beginning, Miss Lin and her mother were filial to me, and they were still given to Miss Lin. The rest, Mrs. Xing, the boss, gave two sets of face masks, and the fourth girl had one set of face masks. The rest were divided into three equal parts, Lian Daughter-in-law, Cong’s wife, and Qi’s wife, each has one share.”
Jia's mother was very straightforward. Jia Amnesty had already spoken to the three grandchildren below. They would not want to see the dowry private house, so Jia's mother would give these things to the granddaughter-in-law.
As for Li Wan, Jia Lan's mother and son, and Jia Baoyu, Shi Xiangyun and his wife,
Jia's mother directly said to Li Wan and Shi Xiangyun, "You know very well how the rumors started. If my dowry and private house are not separated, such things will happen again and again, so I will tell you clearly. , I will not give you what I have. After you are sinners, even if I give it to you, you will not be able to keep it in the future. Don’t complain. I don’t lose you. As long as I live for a day, I will have a bite for you to eat .If I die, death is like a lamp being extinguished, once everything is done, how can I care about the flood after death!"
Shi Xiangyun and Li Wan were shocked by Jia Mu's straightforwardness. Li Wan never expected that Jia Mu would be so courageous!To be willing to give up so much money!
You know, that is Jiamu's dowry private house and Jiamu's coffin book!
But after thinking about it, if Mother Jia couldn't even make such a decision, how could she still stay at the top of Jia's pyramid after Jia Daishan's death for so many years, living the life of the glorious Mrs. Tai over there?
Mother Jia loved Jia Baoyu, but no matter how much she loved Jia Baoyu, she couldn't compare to herself.Not to mention, when Jia's mother raised Jia Baoyu, she was somewhat calculating.Jia Baoyu's relationship with Jia's mother is of course a grandson, and it is more like a kitten and a puppy who develop feelings for each other after being raised for a long time.
Now that Shi Xiangyun and Li Wan have made such a serious matter, Jia Baoyu has not expressed it, and of course Jia's mother has to make a decision.
Jia Qi had no choice but to say, "Old lady, things aren't that bad. I've already hung silk curtains in the shop below and started accepting reservations."
Mother Jia was taken aback: "Reservation?"
"Yes. I originally wanted to exchange those curtains for Sister Lin. Now it's just a little more frugal and used to exchange for money. Moreover, these curtains accept reservations every three months. The goods can only be picked up after the end of the year. As long as the arrangement is good so that everyone can see the Kesi curtain, the rumors will naturally be dispelled.”
Jia Mu shook her head and said, "Forget it, I've made up my mind, so I've made up my mind. In addition, you should find a way to let her out and bring Miss Lin along, so that she won't be criticized by others. Wait for two years , things are cold, let Lin girl come back."
Everything is divided, and there is no need for Jia's mother to retract this decision.
To put it bluntly, now that things are divided, I and Jia Amnesty both look good-looking, and the three granddaughters-in-law below will remember me.Now that Jia Qi said that it was not a big deal, he hastily retracted his previous words, regardless of property. I am afraid that his prestige will be gone, and Jia Amnesty will not have much affection for him.
What to do and how to do it is the best, Mother Jia knows it well.
What matters is not money, but your attitude.
Mother Jia is not confused.
Shi Xiangyun and Li Wan fought for so long, not to mention gaining nothing, and angered Jia's mother. With such an ending, Shi Xiangyun's face was even more dishonored.
Forget about Li Wan, after all, Jia Lan is her own son, and Jia Lan also knows that his mother is for him, and others can criticize his mother, but he cannot.On the contrary, no matter what, Jia Lan will remember Li Wan's goodness, even if Li Wan did something wrong, Jia Lan will always say that her mother did it for her own guessing.
But Jia Baoyu is not Shi Xiangyun's son!
He is Shi Xiangyun's husband!
When he was in the Grand View Garden before, Shi Xiangyun and Xiren made up Lin Daiyu's bad words in front of him, Jia Baoyu was very upset, but he couldn't bear to scold Shi Xiangyun, his younger sister since childhood, and in front of the girl, he had to give Shi Xiangyun face , so I endured it.Now, Shi Xiangyun did this kind of thing again, no wonder Jia Baoyu would be happy!
Jia Baoyu would not scold Shi Xiangyun in front of the girl and mother-in-law, but he can choose not to go home!
That day, after Jia's mother divided the private house, Jia Baoyu sent Shi Xiangyun to the door of his house, and then turned around and went to Liuxiang, Huajie.Naturally, there are guys with good things in Huajie Liuxiang, so it is inevitable that they will ask about the curtain.
Jia Baoyu said: "That tent was given to me by our old lady who asked Brother Qi in front of Brother Qi. If there is anything wrong, why didn't Brother Qi say it face to face? Instead of staying here It’s better to suspect me and Brother Qi if you suspect that I have something to do with my cousin.” After speaking, he said meaningfully: “Brother Qi is also a very exquisite person, it’s a pity that he fell headfirst into that Vanity Fair.”
People who would hang out in Huajie and Liuxiang every day, except for rich and rebellious playboys, or people with talent and fame but no ambitions, they had to get together and ask Jia Baoyu about Jia Qi.
According to Jia Baoyu, Jia Qi had been following Lin Ruhai for a long time, so Lin Daiyu came to Jia's house and lived with Lin Ruhai. He also said that Jia Qi had accompanied Lin Daiyu to the south, and got Lin Ruhai's approval.
Although many women think that Jia Baoyu has feelings for Lin Daiyu, but in the eyes of those men, it is the love | love | history between Jia Qi and Lin Daiyu.
What childhood companionship? Jia Qi, who was only five years old, was enlightened to study after following Lin Daiyu. How did he follow Lin Daiyu to the south to meet Lin Ruhai when he was six years old, and became Lin Ruhai's disciple? Lin Ruhai's daughter made a marriage arrangement.
This marriage was so clean and upright that no one could make up a trace of it.
Even Jia Baoyu has become a poor worm who covets Lin Daiyu.
In fact, Lin Daiyu has so much dowry that even the princes and princes want to marry her.If it wasn't for Jia Qi's sudden entry into the cabinet and his repeated achievements, how could Lin Daiyu marry Jia Qi so smoothly?It can't be said that the pines and cypresses in front of Jia Qi's grave are all tall.
This incident has become a proof that Jia Qi and Lin Daiyu are a match made in heaven.
On the other hand, just as Jia Qilin Daiyu estimated, in the following days, there will be a lot of dramas around Songjiangkou City Shipping Department. Prince Zhong's youngest daughter was given to the son of the current governor of Jiangnan as his wife, and a new governor of Jiangsu, governor of Jiangsu, governor of Zhejiang, and governor of Zhejiang were appointed.
Both Jiangsu and Zhejiang fell into the hands of the Supreme Emperor, and the Supreme Emperor was not afraid that Songjiangkou would be easily captured.
The emperor's reaction was not slow either. He immediately separated Haiyan and Yanguan Towns from Zhejiang Province and incorporated them into Songjiangkou, and established Huzhou Prefecture, which was directly under the jurisdiction of the central government.
On the one hand, the emperor raised the rank of the magistrate of Shanghai Prefecture to the same level as that of Jingzhao Prefecture and Yingtian Prefecture, and even stated that the situation of Shanghai Prefecture was special, allowing the Shanghai Prefecture to form a navy. He made his beloved brother King Hu a fief, and allowed King Hu to set up a palace here.
The two institutions supervise each other, even if the Supreme Emperor sends another person, the emperor can ensure the smooth operation of Shanghai.
The angel brought the emperor's edict again. The emperor appointed Jia Qi as the prefect of Shanghai Prefecture. Like Jing Zhaoyin and Yingtian prefect, they are all of the third-rank grade, one level higher than other prefects; The company is the Shipbuilding Department of Shanghai Municipality, which is also held by Jia Qi.In addition, things such as Haiyan and the Haiyan sea pond in Yanguan Town were also handed over to Jia Qi.
Jia Qi was speechless.
Hooray, is this smoking?
Or was Long Live stimulated by the Supreme Emperor?
However, this has nothing to do with Jia Qi.
Jia Qi only needs to know that the emperor has no intention of letting him return to Beijing.
Anyway, he is only sixteen, not to mention the last life, even in this life, many people are still ignorant at this age, just starting to learn to gain a foothold in this society as an adult.
On the contrary, he not only married the goddess in his heart, but also became famous,
A winner in life is nothing more than that.
So Jia Qi was a little proud, and a little pretentious, and took his daughter-in-law to inspect his property.
That's right, my own daughter-in-law, my own property.
Literally.
For a small fishing village with less than 200 people to become a big city with a population of 60, eating and drinking is the first problem.
Therefore, Jia Qi is at the mouth of Songjiang—no, it is even more profitable to call him Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Shanghai Prefecture.
For other people in this era, probably no one would have imagined that just raising chickens, ducks and geese plus sheep and pigs in captivity would make money like that.
In fact, even Lin Daiyu was very surprised. Didn't Jia Qi build a village a little away from the original small fishing village?But after Huzhou Prefecture became a big city with a population of 60, this Zhuangzi took on the vegetable basket project of the people of Shanghai Prefecture.
It can be said that almost [-]% of the chicken, duck, goose, pork, and mutton in the Huzhou vegetable market come from this Zhuangzi, and [-]% of the freshwater fish comes from this Zhuangzi.
There are also grapes, watermelon and other fruits.
It can be said that this Zhuangzi earns at least 300 taels a day, that is to say, this Zhuangzi earns at least 10 taels a year.
This is a terrifying number. In this world, how many other Zhuangzi have such a high income?
It was not surprising that Jia Qi was born unexpectedly, on the contrary, he thought it was very normal.
Because the 90 mu of beach land by the Yellow River is not inhabitable at all, the millions of refugees are mainly concentrated on the nearby [-] mu of land. On average, one mu needs to feed a person, not counting the living area.
Therefore, most of the houses on that piece of land are three-story or above three-story, and the house foundation of one mu of land must accommodate at least hundreds of people in order to free up the area for farming and breeding.
And Zhuangzi in Huzhou Prefecture can achieve the current unit output because of the valuable experience along the Yellow River.
Jia Qi said: "... To be honest, I still feel that there is too little land over there (that is, by the Yellow River). Unfortunately, there is an old man who borrowed money from there. I take in the refugees, and I don’t even think about it. If I don’t have land, what kind of food will I grow and what will I feed those people? I managed to build a farm by the Yellow River, raise some chickens and ducks to improve the food for the people below, and what else? Some people are complaining, they just want me to buy their high-priced chicken, duck and fish meat. Cut, I am full? I can even break a copper plate into two petals. How can I have the spare money to buy their high prices? Chickens and ducks? They refused to let me buy land. I bought land in Shandong to raise chickens and ducks, and then transported them to Tongguan by water. I think they have the face to stop my boat!..."
Lin Daiyu said: "You, your temper has come up again. What's there to be angry about?"
Jia Qi said: "I'm just angry! Those old and stubborn people who don't know much about economics are still whispering in my ears. They know that one mu of land is only used to grow food, and there is only so much output in a year. If you insist on singing that the wealth of the world is countless, you can't compete with the people for profit, and then tie the people to death in the fields. There is so much money and food outside, but you don't know how to pick them up, but let the people under the rule endure hunger and cold, It’s not that you are stupid in reading, what else can you do? People say that those who have heard the truth are those who have achieved first, but in Dawei, age is the first and seniority is the first. When encountering things, don’t worry about management Yes, first look at whose beard grows, and then look at the number of years of being an official. As for the life of the people under the rule? Who is full and married, standing on the street and watching? They saw it, but they didn’t see it. ..."
All kinds of eccentricities in the officialdom, no one would believe the truth, but this kind of thing happened so unbelievably.
Lin Daiyu was silent for a moment, then said: "But what happened?"
Jia Qi first sat up straight, and after a while, he heard him whisper: "The capital is going to be in chaos."
Lin Daiyu was startled and said, "What's going on?"
Jia Qi said: "Before I left Beijing this time, I met the Supreme Emperor once. The Supreme Emperor's complexion was very bad, and what's more, his hands were a bit strange."
"hand?"
Jia Qi folded his index finger, middle finger, and thumb together, made a strange gesture, and said: "When I entered the palace this time, I saw the hands of the Supreme Emperor like this."
Lin Daiyu wondered, "Is there something wrong with this gesture?"
Jia Qi said: "It's very wrong. Sister Lin, do you know that this old man will have two symptoms when he gets old?"
"Two symptoms?"
"Yes, one is in good health, and the mind is confused first, but when others talk to him, he has a clear mind, can clearly identify people, and can walk, but sometimes he can do it. He made an extremely weird decision, but his change happened little by little, and almost no one would notice something was wrong. This kind of person, we call it old muddled. Our old lady belongs to this kind. However, this This will last for a long time, ten years, 20 years, it is possible."
"What about the other kind?"
"The other one is like the Supreme Emperor," Jia Qi lowered his voice, almost whispering in Lin Daiyu's ear, "this one is also the most tormenting. He is clearly conscious and quick to react, but because of physical Old and paralyzed, he has to rely on others. Think about it, what a powerful person the Supreme Emperor used to be, but now, his hands are numb, and he can't even hold a pen, let alone write, and even hold a job. You can only rely on others to feed you. Think about it, how can the Supreme Emperor endure such a life?"
Such a wise and mighty Taishanghuang, after enduring such torture, he still has a group of young and vigorous sons, and these sons are so outstanding, how can the Taishanghuang not be afraid?
can abdicate,
The Supreme Emperor is much stronger than the "eternal emperor" in another time and space.
Lin Daiyu was also shocked, and said in a low voice, "Who else knows this news?"
Jia Qi said: "Who else knows? I think, you princes, and Long live today, you should know everything you need to know. Otherwise, why do you think the prince of Shanghai came to the capital of Shanghai? It is to guard the south and accompany everyone. Tianfu. However, I only worry about one right now, "
"what?"
"Long live today is only guarding against his brothers, I don't know if he is guarding against his sons."
"You mean..." Lin Daiyu almost jumped up: "But Long Live has only five princes now, and one of them is still in his infancy!"
"Yes! That's why I said, rich and charming, someone in that place has gone crazy."
Lin Daiyu said: "What about the parents? Are they in Beijing, will they be in danger?"
Jia Qi said: "Not now, because the Supreme Emperor has not yet fallen."
"what?"
"Don't underestimate the Supreme Emperor. You have to know that although Wan Sui has been on the throne for ten years, outside the Great Wall, those barbarians are even more afraid of the Supreme Emperor."
There is no way, most of the food is the best when it is just out of the pan. If you take it out, the taste is always [-]% worse.
Even though she was always brought by her husband and accompanied by a group of maids, women, and servants, Lin Daiyu still heard the enthusiastic pursuit of Songjiangkou City Bosi outside.
It's fine once or twice, but with more times, Lin Daiyu can't help but feel worried: "Where is that seat so easy to sit? These people, these people..."
Lin Daiyu couldn't bear to speak.
While peeling the chestnuts for Lin Daiyu, Jia Qi said: "Never mind him, they were stunned by the money, and it has nothing to do with us. Sister Lin, the chestnut cakes of this family are very famous, and they are as good as the ones we eat at home." It's not the same, sister, why bother to be unhappy because of irrelevant people? Come, eat chestnuts."
"You!" Lin Daiyu shook her head and said, "These people are blinded by wealth and power, and they only feel sorry for the women, children, old and weak in their families..."
What did Lin Daiyu not understand?
Where is the location of Songjiangkou Shipyard so good?Who else can pay 2000 million yuan in taxes quietly like Jia Qi?If it were any one person, without Jia Qi's means, without Jia Qi's understanding of those Westerners, without the support of Lin Daiyu's textile workshop, porcelain workshop, and tea garden and tea mountain, how many people would be able to collect so much money? tax?
But when Jia Qi was here, Songjiangkou was able to pay 2000 million silver in taxes. If the successor could not do this, even if the difference was only 100 million silver, it would be a crime!
Did no one in this court see this?Of course there is!
Not only many people can see that this Songjiangkou City Shipping Department is a hot potato at all, but quite a few people can also see that there is no successor for this position, the Supreme Emperor and Long Live are at all.It was about his own authority, the Supreme Emperor would not care about the death of one or two officials, just like Lin Ruhai back then.
Back then, Lin Ruhai, if he hadn't offered sweet potatoes, he would never have returned to the capital alive, and would have survived to death in the position of Yangzhou Xunyan Yushi!
But even if Lin Ruhai came back in the end, his foundation was hurt, and he still couldn't make it through in the end.
Back then, Lin Daiyu was still young, and although Lin Ruhai let her know the surface of many things, it was only the surface. After all, Lin Ruhai would not tell Lin Daiyu about the real things, he would only tell Jia Qi.
After all, Lin Ruhai is a father who loves his daughter dearly. He only hopes that her daughter can be well and live happily.
But for Lin Daiyu, for Lin Daiyu who grows up and always misses her father and recalls the little things when she was with him, she used to not understand when she was young, but now what else does she not understand?
It was the cruel officialdom that took away her brother, her mother, and finally her father, making her an orphan.
Although Jia Qi is always by her side, her father is different after all. Lin Daiyu hopes that her father can watch her get married, instead of missing her father, mother, and brother through portraits like now.
Jia Qi sighed, put the chestnuts on the handkerchief, cleaned his hands in the basin beside him, wiped them with the handkerchief beside him, and then said: "My sister knows how to sympathize with those people, how do you know, yes Are these women, children, old and weak working hard behind the scenes, wanting to get rich and want this position? Not everyone is like my sister, with a delicate heart, nor is everyone like my sister, who can not bend for money "
Lin Daiyu sighed, and said: "It's me, and it's all thanks to the blessings of my parents and ancestors. If it wasn't for my parents and ancestors, where did I get so much dowry? How many people in this world are as capable as you?"
"Hey, good sister, even half of my credit is my sister's. If my sister didn't fully support me, without those Zhuangzi workshops, where would I find so many high-quality silk? Those weavers and weavers are all from my sister's family. I got it out of training. Without my sister, even though I have great abilities, it would be impossible for me to make such great achievements."
"When I didn't know that my father had already given you the family's account book?" Lin Daiyu glared at Jia Qi, "What was trained in my family? I see, you were already preparing for today at that time! I Are you right?"
"Hey~ Those who know me, my sister also."
"Pfft! Glib tongue!"
Seeing Jia Qi pretending to bow to her, Lin Daiyu couldn't help laughing.
After laughing, Lin Daiyu really felt better.
In fact, Lin Daiyu understands better than anyone else, just like Jia's mother started all the chaos in Jia's family, the root of all the troubles of Great Wei in these years is the Supreme Emperor.What is even more worrying is that the Taishanghuang has a higher status and more power than Jiamu. More importantly, the Taishanghuang is the father of the current emperor, and Jiamu is only Jia She's mother.
Will Jia's mother wake up because of Jia Zheng's death, and will the Supreme Emperor wake up because of his son's death?If it was so easy for the Supreme Emperor to wake up, then when the old Prince Yizhong died, the Supreme Emperor should have woken up.
The fact is, for so many years, the Supreme Emperor has been lost in power from beginning to end. Even after losing his status, he still refuses to give up his power!
And those heavenly nobles with the posture of dragon and phoenix, those princes with their own demeanor, just like the old Prince Yizhong said, they are just Gu raised by the Supreme Emperor.
Lin Daiyu thought more than once that maybe Jia Yuanchun didn't commit suicide at the beginning, maybe Jia Yuanchun was executed secretly.
Lin Daiyu remembered that after Jia Qi went south, Jia Baoyu had a serious illness. After waking up, she recited many Buddhist verses, some of which were about Jia Yuanchun, saying: "In the past 20 years, durian flowers have bloomed to illuminate the palace; Three spring struggles and early spring scenery, tigers meet and return with great dreams."
Speaking of today, isn't there only the Taishanghuang and today's Wansui, who are worthy of Hu and Si?
Only these two can make Jia Yuanchun have to die.
Seeing Lin Daiyu getting depressed again, Jia Qi was very surprised: "Sister Lin? What's wrong with you?"
Lin Daiyu said: "It's nothing, I just remembered what Baoyu said in the past."
"Baoyu? What did he say?"
Lin Daiyu said so and so on, after Jia Qi left, how did Jia Baoyu have a fever, how did the medicine fail to work, how did Jia Mu pray, and how did two strange things happen. monk way.
When Jia Qi heard about the strange Taoism, his heart trembled, and he asked quickly, "Sister, did you let them bump into you?"
Lin Daiyu shook her head and said, "How is that possible? At that time, the old lady was still living in the ancestral house! The old lady didn't move here until Brother Bao and Sister Yun got married. At that time, the old lady took The whole family of the second uncle’s family lived there, but I lived with my parents in the Rongchanghou Mansion. The second brother Bao was ill, and my parents took the second sister-in-law there, but they didn’t let me go with the third sister-in-law. In the past. These are what my second sister-in-law learned from me later."
"Oh? Only big sister's? Not mine?"
Lin Daiyu thought for a while and said, "There is one more, it should be about Sister-in-Law Zhu."
As he spoke, he read Li Wan's verdict to Jia Qi.
Jia Qi said: "Haha, if you don't accumulate evil virtues and talk to people jokingly, you're not talking about Mrs. Zhu."
"You!" Lin Daiyu said, "is it time to make fun of others?"
Jia Qi immediately said solemnly: "My good sister, it's because of my difference. I thought that sister-in-law Zhu would be like this for the rest of her life. How could she have thought that she would wear a phoenix crown and Xiapei one day."
Lin Daiyu said angrily: "Is there anything you don't understand about these four sentences? The second uncle has such a result. As the second uncle's grandson, Lang Geer is definitely not qualified to take the civil service path, whether it is Jinshi or Mingshu It is impossible for Ke Ming to study economics. The only possibility for Sister-in-Law Zhu to be able to wear the Fengguan Xiapei is that Brother Lan went to join the army!"
"In this way, Sister-in-law Zhu's phoenix crown and Xiapei were bought by Brother Lan with her life. Is that so?"
Lin Daiyu was shocked by Jia Qi's expression: "You know everything?"
Jia Qi is so sensitive!
Jia Qi said: "I already know what it means. Sister-in-law Zhu's temper, I don't know it outside, you and I still don't know? If the second aunt got into the eyes of money and couldn't get it out, it caused a big disaster. If not, then she will be trapped in Fengguan Xiapei and Feng Wife Yinzi's demonic barrier and cannot get out! If she can wake up, it's fine, but if she can't wake up, it is tantamount to sending her son to a dead end with her own hands! "
Lin Daiyu said: "Yes, that's not the case."
Jia Qi said: "Everyone has their own temperament and their own way. We can only take care of ourselves. Others, to put it bluntly, are brothers of the same mother and compatriots, and there are two accounts! How can I manage it? That's a lot. I just take care of myself, plus half of you."
As he spoke, he took a chestnut and fed it to Lin Daiyu.
Lin Daiyu couldn't help but stare at him, then took his hand and ate it.
Soon, the chestnut cake is ready.
Li Fuxianji's chestnut cake is indeed a century-old signature snack in Beijing. It is limited every day, not to mention, and you have to wait.Fortunately, Jia Qi sent someone to Beijing to fix the private room three months in advance, otherwise he wouldn't be able to eat the chestnut cake.
There is still something wrong with the silk curtain on the Great Wall that Jia's mother gave Jia Baoyu.
Ever since he got the curtain, Jia Baoyu sat in the study every day, sighed and sighed at the curtains hanging all over the study, often stayed until dawn, and sometimes even got drunk, ignoring Shi Xiangyun at all. .
Shi Xiangyun was sad and sad, but he didn't dare to burn the curtain, so he naturally complained.
Before Jia Qi got married for three months, gossip began to gossip about Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, saying that the curtains hanging in Jia Baoyu's room were exactly the same as those in Lin Daiyu's room, and that countless people arranged them. All kinds of words made Mrs. Jia Shexing very angry.
The matter finally came to Jia's mother.
Seeing Shi Xiangyun crying and begging for forgiveness in front of her, Mother Jia suddenly felt very tired:
"Yun girl, do you want to say that I should forgive you, and it is wrong not to forgive you? I don't forgive you, but I am not kind enough. I am not the old lady at the beginning, am I?"
Seeing that Jia Mu's expression was wrong, Shi Xiangyun panicked: "Old lady, it's not me, really, it's not me."
"Then let me ask you, Baoyu likes the curtain, are you unhappy?"
"Yes Yes."
"Have you ever complained?"
"I... I... Old lady, it's really not me! It's really not me!"
Mother Jia sighed and asked the maids to pull Shi Xiangyun away, and said, "Is it you, is it important? Miss Lin is brother Qi's wife, brother Qi is capable and good at life, two or three million silver, give it to me." Just give it. Therefore, no matter Lian'er and Feng girl, or Cong'er and Ya girl, they will not be jealous of him, let alone do such a thing. The only ones who will do such a thing are you and Zhu'er Daughter-in-law."
"old lady?"
Shi Xiangyun panicked.
She knew that she had completely pissed off Mother Jia.
I just heard Jia Mu say: "You and Zhu'er's daughter-in-law plotted against my dowry private house, I don't feel annoyed, but you shouldn't ruin Miss Lin's reputation and drive her to death! What did Miss Lin do to you? Is it possible that she deserves to die for how much longer her dowry is than yours? Could it be that she deserves to die if she is married better than you! Or should I say! ?!!!"
At the end, Jia Mu was already full of anger.
Yes, Jia's mother is partial to Jia Baoyu, that's because Jia Baoyu was born with a background, and secondly, Jia's mother also needs Jia Amnesty to maintain a balance with Jia Zheng, so that she can continue to have a bright future in Jia's house, not early. Step back and be a mascot.
But, that was in the past!
Now Jia Zheng is dead and Mrs. Wang has been exiled!
The current mother of Jia doesn't have the capital to play any balance at all!Not to mention, Lin Daiyu is her own granddaughter, ruining Lin Daiyu's reputation will only do her bad but not good.
Jia's mother doesn't need any solid evidence to prove who did this kind of thing, there is only one thing she wants to do, that is, both Shi Xiangyun and Li Wan must be taught a lesson!
Mother Jia immediately had people call Jia Amnesty and the three grandchildren to her, and also sent people to the government to invite officials to be witnesses, and directly divided her dowry and private houses:
"This time, it all started because of my dowry and private house. I have been rich all my life. When Jia's family was at its best, I married into Jia's family. I started as a great-grandson's wife. Now, even I am about to have a great-grandson's wife. It's a pity that the family is unlucky, and such a big thing has happened just for that little money. Miss Lin, you have been wronged."
Lin Daiyu knelt on the side, weeping, and shook her head.
Jia's mother said: "The boss is a filial man. With him here, this family will definitely not short me. Therefore, it is useless for me to keep those things around me, but it is the root cause of trouble. Therefore, I keep 2 taels here. Silver, for future funerals and for the girls around me. As for the remaining things, some are my dowry, some are left to me by the old man, and some are filial to me when Lin and her mother are around. Things I have already sorted everything out. At the beginning, Miss Lin and her mother were filial to me, and they were still given to Miss Lin. The rest, Mrs. Xing, the boss, gave two sets of face masks, and the fourth girl had one set of face masks. The rest were divided into three equal parts, Lian Daughter-in-law, Cong’s wife, and Qi’s wife, each has one share.”
Jia's mother was very straightforward. Jia Amnesty had already spoken to the three grandchildren below. They would not want to see the dowry private house, so Jia's mother would give these things to the granddaughter-in-law.
As for Li Wan, Jia Lan's mother and son, and Jia Baoyu, Shi Xiangyun and his wife,
Jia's mother directly said to Li Wan and Shi Xiangyun, "You know very well how the rumors started. If my dowry and private house are not separated, such things will happen again and again, so I will tell you clearly. , I will not give you what I have. After you are sinners, even if I give it to you, you will not be able to keep it in the future. Don’t complain. I don’t lose you. As long as I live for a day, I will have a bite for you to eat .If I die, death is like a lamp being extinguished, once everything is done, how can I care about the flood after death!"
Shi Xiangyun and Li Wan were shocked by Jia Mu's straightforwardness. Li Wan never expected that Jia Mu would be so courageous!To be willing to give up so much money!
You know, that is Jiamu's dowry private house and Jiamu's coffin book!
But after thinking about it, if Mother Jia couldn't even make such a decision, how could she still stay at the top of Jia's pyramid after Jia Daishan's death for so many years, living the life of the glorious Mrs. Tai over there?
Mother Jia loved Jia Baoyu, but no matter how much she loved Jia Baoyu, she couldn't compare to herself.Not to mention, when Jia's mother raised Jia Baoyu, she was somewhat calculating.Jia Baoyu's relationship with Jia's mother is of course a grandson, and it is more like a kitten and a puppy who develop feelings for each other after being raised for a long time.
Now that Shi Xiangyun and Li Wan have made such a serious matter, Jia Baoyu has not expressed it, and of course Jia's mother has to make a decision.
Jia Qi had no choice but to say, "Old lady, things aren't that bad. I've already hung silk curtains in the shop below and started accepting reservations."
Mother Jia was taken aback: "Reservation?"
"Yes. I originally wanted to exchange those curtains for Sister Lin. Now it's just a little more frugal and used to exchange for money. Moreover, these curtains accept reservations every three months. The goods can only be picked up after the end of the year. As long as the arrangement is good so that everyone can see the Kesi curtain, the rumors will naturally be dispelled.”
Jia Mu shook her head and said, "Forget it, I've made up my mind, so I've made up my mind. In addition, you should find a way to let her out and bring Miss Lin along, so that she won't be criticized by others. Wait for two years , things are cold, let Lin girl come back."
Everything is divided, and there is no need for Jia's mother to retract this decision.
To put it bluntly, now that things are divided, I and Jia Amnesty both look good-looking, and the three granddaughters-in-law below will remember me.Now that Jia Qi said that it was not a big deal, he hastily retracted his previous words, regardless of property. I am afraid that his prestige will be gone, and Jia Amnesty will not have much affection for him.
What to do and how to do it is the best, Mother Jia knows it well.
What matters is not money, but your attitude.
Mother Jia is not confused.
Shi Xiangyun and Li Wan fought for so long, not to mention gaining nothing, and angered Jia's mother. With such an ending, Shi Xiangyun's face was even more dishonored.
Forget about Li Wan, after all, Jia Lan is her own son, and Jia Lan also knows that his mother is for him, and others can criticize his mother, but he cannot.On the contrary, no matter what, Jia Lan will remember Li Wan's goodness, even if Li Wan did something wrong, Jia Lan will always say that her mother did it for her own guessing.
But Jia Baoyu is not Shi Xiangyun's son!
He is Shi Xiangyun's husband!
When he was in the Grand View Garden before, Shi Xiangyun and Xiren made up Lin Daiyu's bad words in front of him, Jia Baoyu was very upset, but he couldn't bear to scold Shi Xiangyun, his younger sister since childhood, and in front of the girl, he had to give Shi Xiangyun face , so I endured it.Now, Shi Xiangyun did this kind of thing again, no wonder Jia Baoyu would be happy!
Jia Baoyu would not scold Shi Xiangyun in front of the girl and mother-in-law, but he can choose not to go home!
That day, after Jia's mother divided the private house, Jia Baoyu sent Shi Xiangyun to the door of his house, and then turned around and went to Liuxiang, Huajie.Naturally, there are guys with good things in Huajie Liuxiang, so it is inevitable that they will ask about the curtain.
Jia Baoyu said: "That tent was given to me by our old lady who asked Brother Qi in front of Brother Qi. If there is anything wrong, why didn't Brother Qi say it face to face? Instead of staying here It’s better to suspect me and Brother Qi if you suspect that I have something to do with my cousin.” After speaking, he said meaningfully: “Brother Qi is also a very exquisite person, it’s a pity that he fell headfirst into that Vanity Fair.”
People who would hang out in Huajie and Liuxiang every day, except for rich and rebellious playboys, or people with talent and fame but no ambitions, they had to get together and ask Jia Baoyu about Jia Qi.
According to Jia Baoyu, Jia Qi had been following Lin Ruhai for a long time, so Lin Daiyu came to Jia's house and lived with Lin Ruhai. He also said that Jia Qi had accompanied Lin Daiyu to the south, and got Lin Ruhai's approval.
Although many women think that Jia Baoyu has feelings for Lin Daiyu, but in the eyes of those men, it is the love | love | history between Jia Qi and Lin Daiyu.
What childhood companionship? Jia Qi, who was only five years old, was enlightened to study after following Lin Daiyu. How did he follow Lin Daiyu to the south to meet Lin Ruhai when he was six years old, and became Lin Ruhai's disciple? Lin Ruhai's daughter made a marriage arrangement.
This marriage was so clean and upright that no one could make up a trace of it.
Even Jia Baoyu has become a poor worm who covets Lin Daiyu.
In fact, Lin Daiyu has so much dowry that even the princes and princes want to marry her.If it wasn't for Jia Qi's sudden entry into the cabinet and his repeated achievements, how could Lin Daiyu marry Jia Qi so smoothly?It can't be said that the pines and cypresses in front of Jia Qi's grave are all tall.
This incident has become a proof that Jia Qi and Lin Daiyu are a match made in heaven.
On the other hand, just as Jia Qilin Daiyu estimated, in the following days, there will be a lot of dramas around Songjiangkou City Shipping Department. Prince Zhong's youngest daughter was given to the son of the current governor of Jiangnan as his wife, and a new governor of Jiangsu, governor of Jiangsu, governor of Zhejiang, and governor of Zhejiang were appointed.
Both Jiangsu and Zhejiang fell into the hands of the Supreme Emperor, and the Supreme Emperor was not afraid that Songjiangkou would be easily captured.
The emperor's reaction was not slow either. He immediately separated Haiyan and Yanguan Towns from Zhejiang Province and incorporated them into Songjiangkou, and established Huzhou Prefecture, which was directly under the jurisdiction of the central government.
On the one hand, the emperor raised the rank of the magistrate of Shanghai Prefecture to the same level as that of Jingzhao Prefecture and Yingtian Prefecture, and even stated that the situation of Shanghai Prefecture was special, allowing the Shanghai Prefecture to form a navy. He made his beloved brother King Hu a fief, and allowed King Hu to set up a palace here.
The two institutions supervise each other, even if the Supreme Emperor sends another person, the emperor can ensure the smooth operation of Shanghai.
The angel brought the emperor's edict again. The emperor appointed Jia Qi as the prefect of Shanghai Prefecture. Like Jing Zhaoyin and Yingtian prefect, they are all of the third-rank grade, one level higher than other prefects; The company is the Shipbuilding Department of Shanghai Municipality, which is also held by Jia Qi.In addition, things such as Haiyan and the Haiyan sea pond in Yanguan Town were also handed over to Jia Qi.
Jia Qi was speechless.
Hooray, is this smoking?
Or was Long Live stimulated by the Supreme Emperor?
However, this has nothing to do with Jia Qi.
Jia Qi only needs to know that the emperor has no intention of letting him return to Beijing.
Anyway, he is only sixteen, not to mention the last life, even in this life, many people are still ignorant at this age, just starting to learn to gain a foothold in this society as an adult.
On the contrary, he not only married the goddess in his heart, but also became famous,
A winner in life is nothing more than that.
So Jia Qi was a little proud, and a little pretentious, and took his daughter-in-law to inspect his property.
That's right, my own daughter-in-law, my own property.
Literally.
For a small fishing village with less than 200 people to become a big city with a population of 60, eating and drinking is the first problem.
Therefore, Jia Qi is at the mouth of Songjiang—no, it is even more profitable to call him Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Shanghai Prefecture.
For other people in this era, probably no one would have imagined that just raising chickens, ducks and geese plus sheep and pigs in captivity would make money like that.
In fact, even Lin Daiyu was very surprised. Didn't Jia Qi build a village a little away from the original small fishing village?But after Huzhou Prefecture became a big city with a population of 60, this Zhuangzi took on the vegetable basket project of the people of Shanghai Prefecture.
It can be said that almost [-]% of the chicken, duck, goose, pork, and mutton in the Huzhou vegetable market come from this Zhuangzi, and [-]% of the freshwater fish comes from this Zhuangzi.
There are also grapes, watermelon and other fruits.
It can be said that this Zhuangzi earns at least 300 taels a day, that is to say, this Zhuangzi earns at least 10 taels a year.
This is a terrifying number. In this world, how many other Zhuangzi have such a high income?
It was not surprising that Jia Qi was born unexpectedly, on the contrary, he thought it was very normal.
Because the 90 mu of beach land by the Yellow River is not inhabitable at all, the millions of refugees are mainly concentrated on the nearby [-] mu of land. On average, one mu needs to feed a person, not counting the living area.
Therefore, most of the houses on that piece of land are three-story or above three-story, and the house foundation of one mu of land must accommodate at least hundreds of people in order to free up the area for farming and breeding.
And Zhuangzi in Huzhou Prefecture can achieve the current unit output because of the valuable experience along the Yellow River.
Jia Qi said: "... To be honest, I still feel that there is too little land over there (that is, by the Yellow River). Unfortunately, there is an old man who borrowed money from there. I take in the refugees, and I don’t even think about it. If I don’t have land, what kind of food will I grow and what will I feed those people? I managed to build a farm by the Yellow River, raise some chickens and ducks to improve the food for the people below, and what else? Some people are complaining, they just want me to buy their high-priced chicken, duck and fish meat. Cut, I am full? I can even break a copper plate into two petals. How can I have the spare money to buy their high prices? Chickens and ducks? They refused to let me buy land. I bought land in Shandong to raise chickens and ducks, and then transported them to Tongguan by water. I think they have the face to stop my boat!..."
Lin Daiyu said: "You, your temper has come up again. What's there to be angry about?"
Jia Qi said: "I'm just angry! Those old and stubborn people who don't know much about economics are still whispering in my ears. They know that one mu of land is only used to grow food, and there is only so much output in a year. If you insist on singing that the wealth of the world is countless, you can't compete with the people for profit, and then tie the people to death in the fields. There is so much money and food outside, but you don't know how to pick them up, but let the people under the rule endure hunger and cold, It’s not that you are stupid in reading, what else can you do? People say that those who have heard the truth are those who have achieved first, but in Dawei, age is the first and seniority is the first. When encountering things, don’t worry about management Yes, first look at whose beard grows, and then look at the number of years of being an official. As for the life of the people under the rule? Who is full and married, standing on the street and watching? They saw it, but they didn’t see it. ..."
All kinds of eccentricities in the officialdom, no one would believe the truth, but this kind of thing happened so unbelievably.
Lin Daiyu was silent for a moment, then said: "But what happened?"
Jia Qi first sat up straight, and after a while, he heard him whisper: "The capital is going to be in chaos."
Lin Daiyu was startled and said, "What's going on?"
Jia Qi said: "Before I left Beijing this time, I met the Supreme Emperor once. The Supreme Emperor's complexion was very bad, and what's more, his hands were a bit strange."
"hand?"
Jia Qi folded his index finger, middle finger, and thumb together, made a strange gesture, and said: "When I entered the palace this time, I saw the hands of the Supreme Emperor like this."
Lin Daiyu wondered, "Is there something wrong with this gesture?"
Jia Qi said: "It's very wrong. Sister Lin, do you know that this old man will have two symptoms when he gets old?"
"Two symptoms?"
"Yes, one is in good health, and the mind is confused first, but when others talk to him, he has a clear mind, can clearly identify people, and can walk, but sometimes he can do it. He made an extremely weird decision, but his change happened little by little, and almost no one would notice something was wrong. This kind of person, we call it old muddled. Our old lady belongs to this kind. However, this This will last for a long time, ten years, 20 years, it is possible."
"What about the other kind?"
"The other one is like the Supreme Emperor," Jia Qi lowered his voice, almost whispering in Lin Daiyu's ear, "this one is also the most tormenting. He is clearly conscious and quick to react, but because of physical Old and paralyzed, he has to rely on others. Think about it, what a powerful person the Supreme Emperor used to be, but now, his hands are numb, and he can't even hold a pen, let alone write, and even hold a job. You can only rely on others to feed you. Think about it, how can the Supreme Emperor endure such a life?"
Such a wise and mighty Taishanghuang, after enduring such torture, he still has a group of young and vigorous sons, and these sons are so outstanding, how can the Taishanghuang not be afraid?
can abdicate,
The Supreme Emperor is much stronger than the "eternal emperor" in another time and space.
Lin Daiyu was also shocked, and said in a low voice, "Who else knows this news?"
Jia Qi said: "Who else knows? I think, you princes, and Long live today, you should know everything you need to know. Otherwise, why do you think the prince of Shanghai came to the capital of Shanghai? It is to guard the south and accompany everyone. Tianfu. However, I only worry about one right now, "
"what?"
"Long live today is only guarding against his brothers, I don't know if he is guarding against his sons."
"You mean..." Lin Daiyu almost jumped up: "But Long Live has only five princes now, and one of them is still in his infancy!"
"Yes! That's why I said, rich and charming, someone in that place has gone crazy."
Lin Daiyu said: "What about the parents? Are they in Beijing, will they be in danger?"
Jia Qi said: "Not now, because the Supreme Emperor has not yet fallen."
"what?"
"Don't underestimate the Supreme Emperor. You have to know that although Wan Sui has been on the throne for ten years, outside the Great Wall, those barbarians are even more afraid of the Supreme Emperor."
