My father-in-law is Kangxi

Brother Jiu heard what Kangxi meant and was completely opposed to this matter.

He wasn't going to listen.

He really wanted to say that it was divided money, and it was distributed to him, so he could naturally make the decision.

The family is separated!

The family is separated!

But we can't set this precedent, otherwise we won't be able to decide on our own Baylor Mansion in the future.

However, after the father and son have gotten along with each other in the past few years, he also knows that his Khan Ama is soft-spoken and not tough.

He thought over the plan he had made before and said: "My son has fully understood the principles of the formation of pearls. Even if there may be one or two failures at the beginning, he is not afraid. It is not like he spent one hundred thousand taels of silver on the manpower and the When it comes to river mussels, the big head is still land. If the pearls are not raised well, my son will ask people to raise fish, shrimps, and crabs. He will try them one by one, and he will always be able to succeed."

Seeing that he couldn't listen to the advice, Kangxi couldn't help frowning and said thoughtfully: "Fu Jin doesn't stop you from spending money carelessly like this...or is this just what you Fu Jin figured out?"

Brother Jiu raised his eyebrows and asked instead, "That's the money Khan Ama gave to his son. My son Fujin is not short of money, so why are you staring at this money?"

Kangxi: "..."

What's going on with these two couples?

Can't we live a separate life with separate accounts?

He became curious, looked at Brother Jiu and said, "Are you going to keep the two hundred and thirty thousand taels of silver for yourself and not give it to your envoy?"

Brother Jiu shook his head and said, "No, I gave you 12,000 to settle the bank's debt for the past two years..."

Kangxi couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, looked at Brother Jiu and said: "Who lives like this, and the husband and wife still have clear accounts?"

Brother Jiu did not answer immediately this time. He glanced at Kangxi, then looked at him again, and then said with wandering eyes: "Isn't this...what you taught before? Let your son not take advantage of Fujin, so as not to be laughed at."

Kangxi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "I asked you not to take advantage of your Fujin, but I also didn't ask you to be so clear. Since you are the head of Fujin Xianhui Society, even if the money for the division of the family is not all arranged by you Fujin, it should be discussed between you and your husband. .”

Brother Jiu puffed up his chest and looked proud.

"There is no need to discuss this. Her son Fujin has always listened to her son. As long as her son raises matters, she will not respond to them! When she heard that she was going to start such a big business, she was worried that her son would not have enough expenses, so she wanted to use half of her private house for him. , my son is thinking that he won’t have to spend so much money in the first few years, so he can spread it out and try it out first. The money is enough. After a few years, the trial will be completed. When the capital is large and it is not enough to cover the expenses, my son will come to you for help... Then I will also help you. Amma earns some pocket money..."

Kangxi didn't know whether he should be relieved or heartbroken.

With Brother Jiu's mentality, he really didn't believe that he could control Dong E's family. No matter how he looked at it, it was Dong E who coaxed Brother Nine into control.

It's just that when a young couple lives their lives, there must be someone with a thoughtful mind, and Kangxi doesn't dislike Dong E's tact.

There is a Dong E family and a tenth elder brother. Even if they are a little cautious, they are really good to the ninth elder brother.

In this way, Brother Jiu is really stupid and blessed.

But the ninth elder brother has been getting older every year, and he is always being drunk by Fujin and his younger brother. Is he always like this?

Kangxi couldn't help but hesitate a little whether to wake up the ninth elder brother.

But he just thought about it. After all, he still had a kind of fatherly heart.

There is nothing wrong with living in confusion.

He stopped stopping him and said sternly: "Jiangnan is different from other places. If you want to try, just try it in a small way. Don't make a big show of it. He also warned Ji Hong not to show off in Jiangnan under your name." ."

Brother Jiu hurriedly said: "Actually, my son did it on purpose. He wanted to circle the territory by Taihu Lake from the beginning, so that people would know that this was a business run by the prince, so that others would not be tempted to follow suit... …”

Kangxi was moved after hearing this, but still said: "How can it be that easy? Not to mention whether it can be raised or not, even if it is raised, things are rare and valuable. If there are more pearls, the price will naturally come down."

Brother Jiu looked at Kangxi and said: "Khan Ama, don't worry. My son originally went out to earn money for these pearls. In recent years, not only the number of east pearls has decreased, but the number of south pearls has also decreased year by year. The price of pearls is about the same as that of ginseng." It seems to have doubled several times, especially good pearls, which are worth not to mention thousands of gold. I heard that Europe and Russia are no exception, they are all after pearls..."

"When the time comes, these pearls will be cultivated and mainly sold to Europe and Russia. In the future, Khan Amma will reward the vassals. Pearls can also be used to replace gold and silver, and the court expenses can also be saved..."

Seeing what Brother Jiu said so clearly, Kangxi knew that he had carefully planned it.

Kangxi pondered for a moment and said: "Why didn't you try to get the brothers to join the gang this time? You wanted to monopolize this matter alone..."

Even though others were paying off, they didn't even bother with the Tenth Prince, which surprised Kangxi a little.

Brother Jiu cleared his throat and said: "My son feels that such a business cannot be left in private hands, otherwise the Jiangnan merchants will really want to imitate it in the future. If they want to ban it, it will be unfair and their words will not be right. Son I want to take advantage of these few years of trial breeding to save money for the wedding of Fengsheng and his siblings. After ten or eight years, it will become a large scale and the experience of raising pearls will be summed up, so I will directly open the pearl farm. Give it to the Ministry of Internal Affairs..."

"If you don't make money at the beginning, you may lose money. If you make money at the end, you may lose money. It's different from the one-shot deal in Xiaotangshan. My son thinks, it's better to save trouble..."

Kangxi was stunned when he heard this, and asked doubtfully: "Before you made the plan, did you think of giving it to the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the future?"

Not only was Kangxi surprised, but Liang Jiugong also looked at Brother Jiu with admiration.

Lord Jiu, who loves money so much, found a way to make money and didn't even think about keeping it all for himself.

Brother Jiu nodded and said happily: "Now that we have established it, how many pearl farms can be accommodated in such a big Taihu Lake? By then, the pearls of the Qing Dynasty can be sold all over the world, and we can make money from England and France... …”

"It is enough for my son to earn a few years of money, and he has nowhere to spend the extra money. What my son worries about is Fengsheng and the others. When the grandchildren are born, it is Fengsheng's responsibility. Once he becomes an amma, he must Worry about yourself..."

"On the contrary, Khan Ama has a lot of expenses, so I will add more money. If you want to reward your sons in the future, reward your sons. If you want to reward your concubines and concubines in the palace, reward your concubines and concubines. This will save you a tight life." …”

Kangxi glared at him and said, "You think I don't reward you enough? You're so thick-skinned that you forget the days when you didn't have any money, and it's time you begged me for a reward?"

That time it was a merit-based reward after three dozen Junggars. The Ninth Elder Brother and the Tenth Elder Brother didn't have a share, so the Ninth Elder Brother was forced to add it. Brother Jiu sneered and said, "It's been several years, how can you still remember?"

As the father and son talked, the atmosphere became much more relaxed than before.

At this moment, Wei Zhu brought in the imperial doctor.

Kangxi stopped talking and asked the imperial physician to check Brother Jiu's pulse.

The imperial doctor touched him, glanced at Brother Jiu's face, and asked a few questions.

When Kangxi saw this, he couldn't help but worry and asked: "How is your pulse?"

The imperial doctor now knew what was going on in his mind, and he respectfully replied: "Jiubele's pulse is smooth and smooth, and his tongue is red and greasy. This is because drinking has hurt his stomach, he has an irregular diet, and he has not slept at night. That's why he feels a little weak. Take good care of it." Just rest for two days, eat light food, and nourish your stomach. It’s not a serious problem. There’s no need to cook. You can cook some millet porridge to nourish your stomach..."

Kangxi was relieved and said to Brother Jiu: "Have you remembered everything? You are not allowed to drink anymore tomorrow. How old are you, and you are still worrying?"

Brother Jiu nodded obediently and said: "If you don't eat, your brain will still hurt for a while!"

Kangxi nodded and told Liang Jiugong: "Send someone to the dining room to spread the word. Make millet porridge for Brother Jiu at noon, and serve two light side dishes..."

Liang Jiugong went out to deliver the message.

The imperial doctor also knelt down.

Brother Jiu smiled and said: "I didn't eat properly last night. I drank half a bowl of noodles and tea. I didn't take a few bites this morning. My son is really hungry..."

Kangxi saw that he was not polite at all, so he wanted to teach him again.

However, seeing that Brother Jiu had just grown up from a wilted state, he stopped admonishing him and only told him: "I have finally maintained a good stomach. Don't waste it anymore and let me and your mother worry about it again." "

Brother Jiu said: "No more drinking. I was happy yesterday. When I went out earlier, others called me 'Jiu Ye', and they didn't take my son, the bald prince, seriously. Now Khan Ama has given him a title. My son is Baelor, I am so happy..."

Kangxi felt a little uncomfortable when he saw how truly grateful he looked.

When the older brothers were knighted, regardless of whether they had merit or not, Kangxi promoted them. He never thought about being knighted below Baylor.

It's Baelor, who only serves as a buffer for his son to become king.

But when he arrived at Ninth Brother's place, all he could think about was suppressing Feng.

The earliest plan was Beizi.

When the Prince's Mansion was built later, the Ninth Prince had already done a good job in the House of Internal Affairs, and after he had made some contributions, Kangxi relented and allowed him to build the Prince's Mansion according to the Baylor Mansion.

The contributions made in the next few years were real, especially the cashmere and wool mills, which were of benefit to the National University.

The subsequent trial planting of corn and potatoes will benefit the people.

Coupled with cowpox, it is also a merit that can make you a king.

Coupled with cement, the benefits will last for hundreds of years...

Not to mention a county prince, even a prince can be granted the title.

But Kangxi couldn't seal it like that.

Brother Jiu is a sincere person and can only settle small accounts. He has never settled these big accounts and does not feel unfair.

But Kangxi, a loving father, felt a little guilty.

Kangxi didn't say anything, and the father and son had a lunch.

After the dining table was removed, Brother Jiu resigned.

He knew that the emperor's father had to get up early every day to attend to political affairs and take a nap in the afternoon.

Furthermore, Brother Jiu himself started to doze off.

After leaving the small east gate and getting on the carriage, Brother Jiu's face dropped.

Who complained in front of the emperor?

If no one had mentioned it specifically, the emperor's father would not have cared about him sending gold to Ji Hong's shop.

Except for those from Jiangnan, no one else knew Ji Hong and paid attention to the Ji family.

Who is coming from Jiangnan right now?

Li Xu!

Brother Ninth snorted coldly.

The Li family has been involved in the cases of the Ministry of Internal Affairs one after another, and he has been merciful. Li Xu is still not satisfied?

Is this a grudge?
