Number of romantic figures

Chapter 604
"Ruhai and Lian'er replied?" Jia Zheng looked at his brother with a cloudy expression.

"Well, I have replied." Jia Amnesty's expression was also subtle, as if he was worried, but finally he handed the letter to Jia Zheng.

Jia Zheng couldn't see anything from his brother's expression. He didn't look very satisfied or happy, but he didn't seem to be angry or dissatisfied either.

After receiving the letter, Jia Zheng glanced over it, and finally put it down, feeling a little indescribable.

My sister-in-law is still reliable. Knowing that the money may be borrowed but not repaid, he still generously promised to lend 15 taels of silver, but he also said that he will wait a little while. He is dealing with the houses and shops in Suzhou and Yangzhou, and strives to get them back in a month. Send back the silver.

He has always been very satisfied with his sister-in-law, Jia Zheng, no matter what, Lin Ruhai is worthy of the Jia family, and the Jia family is not as busy as Lin Ruhai in other aspects.

Of course, the Lin family must have more than this, but it is the property of the Lin family after all. Lin Daiyu is not married yet, and Lin Ruhai is in poor health. She must also consider the follow-up marriage and dowry for Daiyu.

"Ruhai is not bad, 15 taels of silver,..." With a dry cough, Jia Zheng guessed that his brother might not be satisfied, so he first explained for Lin Ruhai awkwardly.

"Well, Ruhai is not bad. I have made so much money in the past few years when I visited the salt censor. I guess I have to leave some dowry for Miss Lin?" Jia She said with a dull expression, "However, second brother, Now the money is a bit far away. At first, I thought that the Lin family could lend us two or three million taels of silver, but now it is only half of it. The Zhen family tried every means to evade, so they only agreed to give us 30 taels, and we were still short of 10 taels. , I don’t know when we can return it to us?”

This is the most realistic question before us.

Although Yuan Chun's letter didn't mention anything, everyone in the whole family knew that this garden had to be built, and it couldn't be worse than that of Wu's and Zhou's.

This is related to the face of the imperial concubine and empress, and it is also the best performance of whether the Jia family can earn back face with the emperor. All debts and debts have to be built, and now time is very tight. When the time is up, you have to move right away.

"Brother, time is so tight, I'm afraid we have to hurry up. I'm afraid the public money in the mansion can only be moved for the time being. Ruhai's 15 taels will be sent back after a month, and he will definitely be able to send it back." , 5 taels from Zhen’s house, and 5 taels from the public, at least 15 taels short.” Jia Zheng twisted his beard under his chin, his face was full of embarrassment, “Why don’t we just go to the King of Beijing to borrow some money?” .”

Jia She sneered, "How could the King of Beijing lend us a lot? 5 taels is the sky-high. Don't look at him wearing red and hanging colors all day long to pretend to be beautiful. It’s all 5 taels, what’s the difference between this and selling someone?”

Jia Zheng also knew that it was not easy for the King of Beijing. This snake has a big hole, and the prince's house has to be greeted and sent. The price is estimated to be less than 2 taels a year. In such a situation, Jia The government also has a deep understanding.

"If the King of Beijing can borrow 5 taels, the difference is only 10 taels. Where else can I borrow?" Jia Zheng thought hard, and suddenly remembered a person, and raised his eyes, "Feng's family... ..."

"I'm afraid it's not going to happen. Lian'er said in the letter that the Feng family Dalang was ordered to organize Haitong Yinzhuang. He originally planned to invite us to invest in it. He said that King Zhongshun invested 8 taels of shares, and the Feng family also emptied out the old family. Collected enough 6 taels of silver to buy shares,..."

Jia Amnesty's expression was a bit strange, and even his tone of voice was a bit strange, but Jia Zheng's mind was attracted by the topic, "Huh? Buying shares in Yinzhuang? 6 taels? Prince Zhongshun bought 8 taels of shares?"

"Well, under such circumstances, how can the Feng family have any money to lend us?" Jia She's expression slowly returned to normal, but his tone became more feminine, "Second brother, can you go to the Xue family and the Wang family to borrow some money?" Silver? This big girl is famous, and she has a face, which is good for everyone,..."

Jia Zheng's heart skipped a beat, his elder brother was planning to attack Xue's family.

Jia Shiwang Xue and the four great masters are all in the same spirit in name, one prospers and the other loses, but that is the old calendar decades ago.

The historians are now Baolinghou and Zhongjinghou, both of whom are worthless, and their relationship with the Jia family is not very good. If it is not for the sake of the old lady, the Jia brothers would not want to deal with the historian at all, and the historian is now With a desolate appearance and a family of two princes, you can see how mean he is to his niece by looking at her clothes.

On the Wang family side, is my brother-in-law so easy to talk to?Even if the matter of the eldest girl is related to everyone, it is also beneficial to the Wang family, but how much you can borrow, [-] to [-] taels of silver is probably the best, and it depends on Wang Ziteng's mood.

My elder brother also knew this, so the Wang family only mentioned it in passing, and it was clearly aimed at the Xue family.

Orphaned and widowed, and living in Jia's house, if the adults open their mouths, why don't you offer one hundred and eighty thousand?
You can even invest tens of thousands of taels of silver in a theater in the Daguanlou. This big girl Feng Guifei is going to come back to visit her relatives. What a big deal, shouldn't you help support the scene?

The Jia family is honored, and the Xue family will naturally be honored as well.

Jia Amnesty's thoughts, Jia Zheng can basically guess most of them. He has been a brother for decades, but he still doesn't understand his elder brother's thoughts, and he is used to bullying and fearing evil.

"Brother, I can talk to my brother-in-law. My brother-in-law has always been concerned about the eldest girl's affairs, but on the Xue family's side, it is not easy for the orphans and widows to go from Jinling to the capital city now." Jia Zheng Frowning, a little embarrassed, "It's not good to spread this word."

"What's so bad about it? Xue Wenlong and other idiots dared to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver in the theater garden of Daguanlou. Could it be that the eldest girl Feng Guifei came back to visit her relatives and couldn't afford to be a Daguanlou? Or worried that our Jia family can't afford it?" How many taels of silver do they have?" Jia She said aggressively, "If you and your siblings are not comfortable talking, let me talk about it, and these things have to be picked up, 10 taels, let's make an IOU, five It will be clear within a year."

Hearing that his elder brother offered 10 taels of silver, Jia Zheng couldn't help shaking his head: "Brother, don't do that. It would be embarrassing if you were rejected outright. 10 taels is probably unbearable for the Xue family now." It’s very important, if it’s 3 or [-] taels, we can discuss it.”

"Two or thirty thousand taels? Send a beggar?" Jia Amnesty became more and more dissatisfied, "Then Xue Wenlong's monthly expenses are hundreds of thousands of taels, right? Why did Jia's family become cramped and shabby when they lent it to us?"

In this matter, Jia Zheng could not allow his elder brother to act so recklessly. He persuaded: "Brother, how about this? Talk to the Xue family and see if you can borrow 5 taels. In addition, I will find a way to go to my brother-in-law's place." If it is not enough, then find a way to move some out in the commute, for emergency use temporarily, and talk about it later,..."

"Second brother, I'm afraid the public money is not enough. If you want to do this, I'm afraid you have to get some things out of the old lady's house..." Jia She's pissy eyes flashed, "Go and talk to me." Yuanyang said, I'll take care of it as a mortgage over there..."

Back in his room, Jia Amnesty took out another letter from Jia Lian from the box, and read it again carefully.

In the letter, Jia Lian also mentioned that the Feng family might have no money to borrow, and also mentioned that Lin Ruhai and Feng Ziying each lent him 5000 taels of silver, making up 1 taels to buy shares in Haitong Yinzhuang. Interested in.

Lin Ruhai is a smart person, and he can still lend 5000 taels to Lian'er. The Feng family's boss is also so generous. Lian'er is a friend, and he can be thought of for good things. Jia Amnesty is very satisfied. Feng Ziying's impression suddenly changed greatly.

When Mrs. Xing returned to the house, she saw the master holding the letter and smiling all over his face, and hurried forward, "Why is the master so happy?"

"Lian'er sent a letter, um, the Lin family agreed to borrow 15 taels..." Jia Amnesty didn't care much.

The second child should figure out where the money for the garden repair comes from, but for the repair of the garden, I have to find a way to grasp it, at least to get a piece of it, everyone knows that it is easy to eat a mouthful of meat, of course not The second room was taken away at once.

"It's only 15 taels. Didn't the Lin family get at least 50 million taels of silver in the past few years when they were inspectors? How did they only borrow 15 taels?" Xing was also a little puzzled, "Then Lin Ruhai has other plans?"

"It's normal to have other plans, he has an unmarried daughter." Jia Amnesty became impatient, "Don't worry about these nosy things, even if you borrow an extra 20 or [-], can it still be your turn? "

"What does the master mean...?" Mrs. Xing was taken aback. She was most afraid of her husband and listened to Jia's pardon for everything.

"We can't let the second bedroom monopolize the repair of the garden. If you have nothing to do, go to the old lady's side to take a look. My younger brother and sister don't care much about it. Most of them will be handed over to Feng girl. It's about 10 taels of silver. I can't let Feng girl eat all her own business,..." Jia She gnashed her teeth, "That's a wolf who can't support a family, so you must arrest this matter, and you can't let Feng Lazi gain power in this matter. .”

"Yes, but I'm afraid I may not be able to handle this matter. It just so happens that my brother, who is useless, wants to make a living from Suzhou. If he can come to Beijing, he can be ordered to do many things. It's much more convenient." While observing Jia She's expression, seeing that the other person's complexion is okay, Xing also became bold, "And my niece is also said to be a shrewd person, far better than my brother, so she can come to help I give it a hand."

Jia Amnesty nodded noncommittally: "This matter is going to start soon, you have to keep an eye on it, you will definitely earn a lot of money by waiting for such a business."
