My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 1193 Is it a grudge?

Imperial City, Tong's House.

A clan member of the clan's mansion brought people from the Eight Banners Division of the Household Department to search the house together.

Except for the house itself, everything else must be registered.

As for house deeds and land deeds, they must be discounted according to the market price and sold to foreign officials later.

This is the official seller, and there is a lot of knowledge in the middle.

The officers who dealt with it could not take advantage of it, but it was common to get some silver seals.

There are some unwritten examples in the Eight Banners, such as the transfer of real estate in the capital among relatives.

The three poor and the three rich will grow old, and if they don't keep everything together, their families will have a hard time.

This house shop changed hands occasionally.

Most of them are taken over by relatives, and there is room for repentance.

Afterwards, when the silver becomes rich, it can be redeemed and bought back.

Some of them were divided from the ancestral property, and it is a pity that they flowed outside, so they are still moving between brothers and cousins.

That's why last year, Uncle Bafujin's family bought the Fusong family's property and was criticized after it was turned over, because it looked wrong and didn't look like a normal business transfer.

The Secretary of the Household Department who came over to stare at the book today thought that as usual, he just waited for the Tong family to come and buy it.

As a result, when he returned from Tong's house to the Yamen of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the people from the Ninth Prince's Mansion were already waiting.

Erhe, the second-class bodyguard who came, brought 5 taels of banknotes, and directly passed on Brother Jiu's words, saying: "Our master said that Longkodo's official and private properties were bought according to the market price..."

The officer was dumbfounded.

That's not quite the rule.

But the one who wants to buy property is the ninth brother, the prince's brother, what rules can be greater than the prince's brother?
He accompanied Xiaoxin, and said: "Master Er, this lower official can't decide what to do, so I have to ask Lord Ma for instructions."

Ma Qi is now the official secretary of the household department.

Erhe said: "Then ask for instructions."

The officer went to Shangshu to be on duty.

Ma Qi is here at the Ministry of Households these few days because of the delay of the grain ship.

There has been an official document from the Water Transport Yamen, explaining the reason.

There are two sections in the middle of the upper canal because of the autumn floods, the waterway was damaged, and the grain ship was delayed to go north.

Hearing that the officials of the Eight Banners Department said that the Ninth Prince's Mansion sent people to buy Longke's many subordinates and confiscated properties, Ma Qi was a little surprised.

Brother Jiu is not bad for these.

In addition to the property of the prince's household, Jiufu Jin also married many properties.

But now Brother Nine arranged for his subordinates to come over and name them to buy Longkodo's private property. Where did the so-called come from?
Ma Qi said: "Let Erhe come over and talk."

The two had also met face to face. This was the youngest son of the minister who led the guards, and he was also his son's boss.

Erhe was brought over by the officer, bowed and said: "Your officer Erhe has seen Mr. Ma."

Ma Qi bowed his head in return, and said, "What's going on? Why did Master Jiu think of asking this?"

According to the usual practice, most of these industries are bought by Orondai at a discount, or they wait for Shengjing to arrange staff to come over.

This is not an outsider, Erhe also told the truth, saying: "The Tong family offended our master and our Fujin, our master was annoyed, so he arranged for an official to come over, and also ordered, don't take advantage of that, just pay the price. "

Marzi raised an eyebrow.

By price?

Undocumented property has a price, but who doesn't know that shops and houses in the inner city are priceless?

However, Brother Nine arranged for people to come and bought them according to the rules, so there was no reason to stop them.

He nodded and said, "Then follow Master Jiu's orders!"

As for whether the Tong family will complain afterward, it doesn't matter.

Brother Jiu didn't ask for it for nothing, he discounted it according to the rules.

Even if the Tong family complained about going to Yuqian, it was useless.

Compared with other people, the Tong family has a close relationship with the emperor; compared with the princes, it is far away.

With Ma Qi nodding, the Eight Banners Division had no excuse for delay and began to calculate the price.

Even though Tong's family is not separated, Long Kedo is not a teenager. He has been on the job for more than ten years. He already has five private properties under his name, one is another courtyard in Shichahai, a fourth courtyard, and two pavements on Gulou Street. , two small courtyards outside the Imperial College, and Fangshan's land of [-] mu.

According to the market price, it was converted into 760 five taels and three dollars.

Erhe handed over the money, and transferred the ownership of these five properties to the name of Brother Jiu.

The formalities on his side were almost done, and the fourth elder brother got the news and came over.

He didn't expect Brother Jiu to encourage him to intercept the purchase yesterday, but today he sent someone here by himself.

"what happened?"

Si Age said.

Everyone played down the rift between Long Kedo and Brother Jiu, but Brother Jiu came out by himself and wanted to confront the Tong family.

The fourth elder brother felt a little regretful.

If I had known this, I might as well have stared at Ba Banners and bought it to vent my anger on Brother Jiu.

Erhe bowed and replied: "Our master said that we should not be offended in vain, otherwise we will lose money, and no one will dare to be rude in the future."

Fourth elder brother: "..."

This is really what brother Jiu can say.

Now that the matter has come to this, the fourth elder brother can't say anything.

Even if there is an objection, there is no need to say it in front of the younger brother's subordinates.

Erhe went out from the household department and went directly back to the prince's mansion.

It just so happened that elder brother Jiu also came back from the Yamen, and when he heard that Erhe was visiting, he asked him to go to the main room to answer.

Shu Shu was a little curious: "I don't know how many shops are there, and what kind of business do you do?"

She and Brother Jiu have quite a few shops under their name, but no one thinks there are too many shops.

She was thinking about the tea house business before, but there was only a small tea house selling tea under her name, with two shops up and down.

When Erhe came in, he talked about going to the household department, and then presented a stack of house deeds and land deeds.

Brother Jiu took it, flipped through it briefly, handed it to Shu Shu and said: "There are two shops, the location is good, it is Gulou Street, one is a bank, the other is a pawn shop..."

When Shu Shu heard about Qianzhuang, she thought more about it.

We must know that in addition to exchanging copper coins and storage, the main business of the current bank is lending.

Brother Nine's share of the property also has a bank, which is on Di'anmenwai Street.

It's just that in order to prevent the lower-ranking people from raising the interest rate, the husband and wife made a regulation, prohibiting private loans, only commercial loans, using shops or houses as mortgages, and the interest is within the legally stipulated [-]% interest.

Seeing her expression, Brother Jiu said: "Don't worry, I'll ask someone to go over to settle the accounts later, and stop those private loans, and see if we can continue to open the bank or take it back and do it aside."

Shu Shu nodded, and said: "Well, the identity of the master is here, and our family is not short of money, so we don't need to earn such conscientious money."

As for the other pawn shop, Shu Shu has no other opinions.

It doesn't matter if you keep it, if you can find something good, you can keep it for yourself or use it as a gift.

Brother Nine said to Erhe: "On the fourth day of the next lunar month, Master will go to Rehe on a business trip, and Fujin will go with him. You go back and gather the guards and guards. Except for those who stay at the prince's mansion, others are willing to follow. Let's all go out for a walk and see the world..."

Erhe was a little confused.

Since it was a "tolerance", why did Fujin go with him?

He didn't ask out, and he answered honestly.

Brother Jiu thought of Zhang Tingzan and Cao Yueying, both of whom were literati, and they looked not very strong.

There are three carriages remodeled in the Prince's Mansion, one of which belongs to the county lord.

Even if the county owner seldom goes out, it's not easy to embezzle it.

Brother Jiu said: "Pick two more carriages and go to the construction department to modify them. Get an extra money and let them modify them within two days."

Now that Fu Song is still in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he doesn't care about the general affairs here in the Prince's Mansion, so Brother Nine will catch whoever will use him.

Erhe agreed, and went down to see the carriage.

The husband and wife looked at several other properties.

"There are only three houses, all of which are in the best locations. The annual income is not as good as that of a shop, but there are quite a few..." Shu Shu said.

Brother Jiu cared more about the Zhuangzi in Fangshan, and said: "Turn back and send someone over there to have a look. According to Haidian Zhuangzi's actions, there are also some pigs and chickens raised there. From now on, let's not talk about the mansion, it is the restaurant. There is no need to buy outside for supply.”

The Zhuangzi in Baiwang Mountain in Haidian is a combination of two Zhuangzi. It was a small Zhuangzi given by Mrs. Uncle before Shu Shu got married, plus a big Zhuangzi given by Prince Kang Taifujin. The two Zhuangzi add up to more than 1000 mu of land. .

The Zhuangzi in Fangshan is not too small. If it is also operated according to the Zhuangzi in Baiwangshan, it will be more cost-effective than going out to collect rent.

How to manage Zhuangzi is a trivial matter, anyway, this sum of money is worthwhile.

Regardless of Zhuangzi's income for the time being, let's just talk about the rent of the two shops and three houses, which is less than 1000 taels a year.

Brother Nine smiled, and couldn't help but had an idea, and said: "If someone doesn't know what's going on later, should I send it to the door?"

Shu Shu couldn't help laughing, did she want to "touch porcelain"?
But she also knew that elder brother Jiu was just talking.

In addition to silver, there is also face.

Brother Jiu said: "Longkodo is also obsessed with ghosts. Although these properties are not recorded in the name of Li, the proceeds belong to Li. It is said that it is cosmetics and silver, and the empress in the palace did not say 1000 taels a year. Silver powder silver..."

Shu Shu thought of Li Si'er's makeup that day, the Kesi outer shirt, the full hair, the eight-treasure bracelet on the wrist, and the ruby ​​buttons on the oblique front of the clothes.

This outfit costs several hundred taels of silver.

"Longkodo has other income specified, more than 1000 taels of silver, not enough for Li Si'er to wear..."

Shushu said.

Brother Jiu heard this, thought for a while, and said: "He has been in charge of Luan Yiwei before. For more than ten years, there are not too many places where he can stretch his hands. Tomorrow, the master will ask someone to check the previous accounts..."

Luan Yiwei is in charge of the vehicles and ceremonial guards for the emperor and empresses to travel, as well as travel guards.

There are new and old replacements for these objects, as well as the wear and tear of daily maintenance, and there are many places for manipulation.

*
Household Department, Eight Banners Division.

Bu Xi came here on orders, and asked Longke about his property, but it turned out that he was one step too late.

Brother Jiu bought them all.

"The land in Fangshan is the ancestral property of the Tong family..."

Bu Xi said to the officer.

Several other shops and houses were added by Long Kedo over the past ten years, and they were bought as soon as they were bought.

The land in Fangshan was assigned by the Tong family when they entered the customs, and it has been operated by several generations.

The officer held the account book and said: "Erbo, the Ninth Prince was bought at the market price, and the ownership has been transferred."

Bu Xi nodded, left the yamen of the household department, looked in the direction of the Zongren Mansion, stopped for a while, turned and left.

He didn't go back to the Duke's mansion, but went back to the princess mansion next door, and said to Jiu Gege: "Did Master Jiu hold grudges?"
