Chapter 687

Jia Huan left first knowingly, and Wang Xifeng and Heping'er hesitated for a while before leaving. They must return to Mrs. Wang's side.

Only Feng Ziying and Jia Lian were left.

"What's going on?" Feng Ziying frowned.

Jia Lian is very busy during this time.

Duan Xigui is still in charge of the overall situation in Yangzhou. The Jingshi account of Haitong Yinzhuang has not yet been opened, but some businesses cannot be delayed.

For example, the money collected by the Zhongshu Branch will be transferred to the household department, but the franchise fee paid, the Kaihai bond sold and the Dongfan Salt Service income are all concentrated in Yangzhou.

It is very troublesome to transport such a large amount of silver back to the capital city, and the capital of the royal clan headed by King Zhongshun has already been paid for the shares, so the best way is to pay the capital subscribed by the princes and clans in time. Accept it, and then transfer it to the account of the Ministry of Accounts on the spot, and part of it will be transferred to the bank of the Ministry of Accounts.

This work is quite complicated. Although Jia Lian also brought back a few helpers from Yangzhou, they can only do specific things. On the scene, they have to deal with the shareholders of King Zhongshun, various clans, and even merchants from the Northland. I have to ask for Jia Lian.

So in the past ten days, Jia Lian was so busy that his feet never touched the ground. From site selection to selection of candidates, to starting to take over the shares, Jia Lian dared not let go of anything.

It is impossible for King Zhongshun and the others to ignore such a big matter. Naturally, they have to send their own people. The same is true for the Shanshan merchants. Supervision is also what it should be.

But I have to say that Jia Lian's training in Yangzhou has grown considerably in the past few months. If it was placed a year ago, Jia Lian would never have the ability to deal with such a big matter. It was done so impressively that even King Zhongshun, who was not satisfied with Jia Lian's handling before, affirmed it.

This also made Feng Ziying very emotional. Sometimes it's not that this person is not good, but that he has not been given the opportunity to grow up. Like Jia Lian, if he hangs out in Rongguo Mansion all day long, how can he get to where he is today?Without the polishing of the trip to Yangzhou, would he be able to carry such a big battle?

Of course, this is still the easiest way to collect shares and transfer part of the silver to the household department. At present, Haitong Yinzhuang does not have enough manpower to support the Yangzhou and Jingshi at the same time, but Jia Lian really polished it. Come out, showing the ability to stand alone.

Looking at Jia Lian's tired look, Feng Ziying could understand.

I haven't been in charge of such a big matter before, even if I have experience in Yangzhou, after all, there is Duan Xigui leading the way there, and Wang Wenyan's support, so I don't think so, but here, although I am more familiar with it, it's done. Be on your own, you have to make your own decisions about everything.

Feng Ziying would not ask about such specific matters, and Jia Lian was unwilling to ask Feng Ziying everything, which would be harmful to himself.

There are dozens of people under his command, some are from the clan and Shanxi merchants, some are brought from Yangzhou, and some are dug out by Jia Lian himself in the capital city. Jia Lian even brought Jia Yun here to help, just to We must get this situation under control as soon as possible.

"Children are playing with their temper, just pass it." Jia Lian was careless, he didn't take this matter to heart at all, and his mind was still on Yinzhuang, "Ziying, I plan to talk to Brother Yun." Let me tell you from Xianglian, I want this person, and there are seriously not enough suitable people on my side. Yun'er is loyal and reliable, and does things down-to-earth. I need such a person at hand. Let Xianglian find another one at Daguanlou .”

Feng Ziying didn't expect that Jia Lian didn't take this matter to heart at all, but brought up the matter of Haitong Yinzhuang, and frowned: "You can discuss it with Brother Liu. Why, I don't plan to go back to Yangzhou. How about doing it?"

Originally, I planned to let Duan Xigui be the capital accountant. There were several considerations. Firstly, Duan Xigui had more experience. Secondly, Jia Lian was still a little uneasy. Thirdly, Jia Lian himself was not willing to stay in the capital. But looking at Jia Lian’s performance now Getting better.

He is more familiar with all aspects of the situation here in the capital. For example, poaching a few shopkeepers from the same industry is easy, and he can get along better with the merchants in the capital city. Therefore, Feng Ziying feels that if Jia Lian is willing to stay in the capital, he will The Jingshi can be set up by Jia Lian.

But Duan Xigui straightened out the Yangzhou account, so he went directly to Datong to open the Datong account.

As the foundation of the Duan family, the Feng family also has a lot of influence there. The Datong account is very important. This is also to prevent Shanshan businessmen from imitating others and posing a threat to Haitong Yinzhuang in the future. At least they must establish themselves first. advantage, so it is also crucial to do it as soon as possible.

Moreover, a city like Guangzhou must be occupied as soon as possible, so Duan Xigui will be very busy in the next two to three years. If Jia Lian can carry the Jingshi, it will also greatly relieve Duan Xigui's pressure.

"I haven't made up my mind yet, but I still prefer Yangzhou." Jia Lian hesitated for a moment, but then said quickly, "But the Jingshi can't be delayed here, and Xigui can't get away from there for the time being. I will definitely do it here without hesitation. , with you in the capital city, I also have the bottom line, at least nothing has gone wrong now."

"Second brother Lian, be more confident. I have seen what you have done during this period of time. You have done a good job. My cousin may not be able to do as well as you when you come here. You are more familiar with the capital city, like looking for an office. , dig people, straighten out the relationship, my cousin can’t do it so smoothly in such a short period of time, I mean, it’s better for you to do it first, and as for whether you want to go back to Yangzhou in the future, you can go anywhere.”

Feng Ziying smiled, "If Second Brother Lian is reluctant to part with you in Yangzhou's house, you might as well have someone send it back. If it's not easy to enter the mansion, it's okay to keep it outside for a while."

Jia Lian's face froze, and he shook his head, "I don't even have the time to think about those things now, your second brother has never worked so hard like this time, every morning when you open your eyelids, you will see I have to think about today's affairs, I have to go out after dinner, and I can only get home in the middle of the night, I haven't even slept with your second sister-in-law for so long, I really don't have the energy,..."

Jia Lian's words are not taboo, Feng Ziying also laughed, "Second brother Lian, this is not acceptable, no wonder the second sister-in-law saw me looking bad just now, I dare say you didn't plow your own field after you came back, maybe The second sister-in-law already knows about your affairs in Yangzhou?"

"Hmph, I'm not afraid if I know it. You can still let women influence you if you do something?" Jia Lian snorted softly. , when the time comes, she will have to beg Master to go back."

Hey, this second master Lian has a career now, and he has gained confidence. Feng Ziying is a little funny.

But he didn't think that the wild flowers outside like the skinny horse in Yangzhou could be so fragrant, and it was just a novelty, but he appreciated Jia Lian's enthusiasm for putting aside everything to do business now.

Everything is difficult at the beginning. If Jia Lian can't put aside his enjoyment and settle down to do things at the beginning like this, Feng Ziying will really worry that he will not be able to carry this burden.

But now it seems that Jia Lian is still doing a good job, and he also knows how to draw Jia Yun to his side to do things, which shows that he has consciously learned to control the situation, which is a good thing.

Jia Yun is a person who can do things, it is a pity to put it in the Daguanlou, it is just a theater, and the performance of more than a year can explain a lot, and it may be able to exercise in Haitong Yinzhuang.

"Second brother Lian, you should do the things on the capital's side first, I think it's okay to do it like this." Feng Ziying waved her hand, "If you think it's okay, Jia Yun, then come over, and I'll go to the second brother Liu. It's okay to say."

"Well, let's settle this matter. I'll let Yun'er come here officially. I just helped out earlier. I think Yun'er has some understanding in this aspect, and she is willing to learn and work hard. It is better than the people who came over from King Zhongshun." It's too strong..." Jia Lian shook his head, obviously not satisfied with the people sent by King Zhongshun.

"Prince Zhongshun and those who came from Shanshan merchants, second brother Lian, you should use your talents to the best of your abilities, and use them if you can, but the key points must be in your hands. The treasurer wants our people, and the accounts need to be taken care of." It is absolutely clear that..."

Jia Lian nodded, "Ziying don't worry, I naturally understand the importance of such things, Yun'er, I plan to let him go to the treasurer's side to learn from the people we brought over from Yangzhou for a while, and let him get acquainted with all aspects later. business,……"

Feng Ziying didn't say much, "Well, as long as you know it well, by the way, what's going on today?"

"You're talking about Baoyu?" Jia Lian didn't expect Feng Ziying to bring the topic back here again, and said disapprovingly, "What else could it be? I don't understand. This Baoyu is not young, maybe fifteen or sixteen years old." I don't do anything serious all day long, either listening to operas in the theater or hanging out with Jiang Qiguan and Zhong Geer. I didn't think so at first, but now I feel more and more that this is not going to work. I need to find someone I have the opportunity to talk to the two masters."

Feng Ziying didn't expect Jia Lian to say such a thing. Before, he didn't have the confidence to dare to speak out in front of Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng, and he actually wanted to suggest that Baoyu should not be allowed to do this.

"Second brother Lian, what do you think Baoyu should do now?"

"The mansion also said that they want to find a suitable marriage for him, but there is still no conclusion. Maybe they think that the eldest girl has high vision because she has become a noble concubine?" Jia Lian was also a little uncertain, "Maybe find a suitable one. Marriage, get married early, and see if you can make him feel at ease."

"Second brother Lian, you haven't said what happened to Baoyu today?" Feng Ziying looked at Jia Lian and said.

Knowing that he couldn't get around, Jia Lian coughed dryly and considered his words, "Ziying, you also know Baoyu's temperament. He used to be a little obsessed with Sister Lin, but now he hears that you and Sister Lin are engaged, and he feels a little crazy." I was stunned, I couldn't bear to appease him in name some time ago, Sister Lin didn't see him very often, and Brother Zhong and Jiang Qiguan also got close to him in the past few days, everyone thought it was over I never thought that Qin Ye was ill the day before yesterday, so Brother Zhong went back to watch over his father, Jiang Qiguan was also busy in the theatre, and Baoyu had no playmates, so..."

"So, you just reverted to your old ways and had some unreasonable thoughts?" Feng Ziying said coldly.

Jia Lian's heart trembled, and he quickly waved his hands, "No, Ziying, you know Baoyu, he won't be that unbearable. Talking with Sister Lin, laughing and playing, to be honest, although Sister Lin is younger than him, he is actually more like a younger brother, well, I think Brother Huan looks more sensible than him Some, just like he also likes to go to the Xue family sister, in fact, he just likes a lively scene, I hope everyone cares about him,..."

It has to be said that Jia Lian, the cousin, knew Baoyu very well, and his analysis and judgment were similar to Feng Ziying's.

This guy is like a child who has not grown up. He hopes that everyone around him will be centered on him, whether it is an elder or a peer. He has also been used to living in this environment since he was a child, so once he loses this aura, So I feel at a loss, or even unable to adapt.

"It seems that we still have to have a good talk with Baoyu." Feng Ziying said calmly.

"Baoyu's temperament, which has never grown up, is probably liked by all the maids in the mansion. It can make Baoyu look good, and she must be willing to be an aunt, but it is probably like the daughter of a wealthy family outside. I'm afraid it will be troublesome, and those who know Baoyu's temperament probably won't be too willing." Jia Lian was still very realistic, "Actually, this can be seen from the attitudes of sisters Xue, Lin, and even Yun."

"Oh?" Feng Ziying turned her head in surprise.

"Second younger sister, third younger sister, and fourth younger sister will of course have nothing, but the younger sister of the Xue family, didn't they come here for the draft girl in the palace at first? I heard that after missing the draft time, Aunt Xue originally wanted to let Xue For my sister and Baoyu, it's just right to kiss each other. I guess both sides have the same meaning, but they never mentioned it again. Now that Xue's sister is sixteen, it's reasonable to talk about marriage. Married, but so far there is no suitable candidate, but Aunt Xue never mentioned the matter of Baoyu, even when Baoyu went to Lixiangyuan, Xue's younger sister disappeared because of illness, isn't that obvious?"

Feng Ziying felt that she had really underestimated Jia Lian, and the conclusions she drew based on this delicate observation ability were enough to show that Jia Lian was really delayed in Jia's mansion before, and he really wanted to let him go out to give him a chance to polish After that, I dare not say that it is pure gold and jade in the rough, but at least it can be regarded as an upper-middle posture.

Of course, Jia Lian didn't know about Baochai and himself, but presumably after Baochai saw the contrast between himself and Baoyu, even if he would not marry her, she might not be willing to marry someone like Baoyu.
