Jia Qiang hurriedly said, "Uncle, you say so."

Liu honestly said: "Now I don't lack anything, I feel that everything is fine, I just feel that you are not too young, and now you have such a family business, if you don't get married and have a son, you will feel uneasy .Your aunt said, the last time I saw you and the girl from the Lin family on the pier, there was a clue at first glance, when is it possible to ask a matchmaker to go to the Lin family to talk about it?"

When Jia Qiang heard this, she didn't look like a decent young man blushing, but laughed and said, "I have my own idea about this matter, so don't worry, uncle."

Seeing Jia Qiang laughing, Liu Daniu also laughed, and said, "A character like my younger brother is worthy even of a fairy descending to earth, so don't worry too much. But I looked at that Miss Lin last time, she was even more beautiful than a fairy girl." .”

Jia Qiang laughed and said, "Catch the opportunity tomorrow, I will lead the family to meet my uncle, aunt and sister."

Liu Daniu said with a smile: "Then you have to let your brother-in-law go out to hide in advance, it's great to be bluffed."

Aunt Chun gossips: "Then Miss Lin and her father are high-ranking officials?"

Jia Qiang nodded and said, "Well, now I'm in charge of the household department, and I'll be prime minister in two years."

"I'll be good!"

Aunt Chun was envious.

Liu Daniu raised her eyebrows and said: "Where is the difference between Brother Qiang? The Prime Minister is only a first-rank, but Brother Qiang is a super-rank, and can be hereditary in the future, but the Prime Minister cannot be hereditary. But then again In the future, Qiang'er has to treat others well, I think her body is a little weak, but she needs to be taken care of, otherwise she will suffer a lot when she has children in the future."

Jia Qiang laughed and said, "She'll come tomorrow, just tell her."

After gossiping for a long time, Jia Qiang picked up two big bowls of rice by the way, and then she didn't go back to the back house to rest, and took people out to ride horses...

Chapter 286 The first loss!

Shenjing West City, Yanshou Temple Street.

Township government.

In Zhenwei hall, Niu Jizong, who was wide and fat, smiled like a Maitreya, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty Ning is here, my Zhen Guogong's mansion is really full of splendor!"

Jia Qiang looked at this line of heroes who founded the country, except for the two sons and daughters who rebelled against the Yuanping heroes early on, the King of Beijing and the Shijia, and the highest-ranked nobles, she always felt that this person was a bit pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

Don't look at this person as obese or mature, but in fact he is only in his thirties.

This year, his imperial edict has just given birth to a son...

After Jia Qiang was seated, another young man in Tsing Yi brought tea. Niu Jizong laughed and said, "I was a little flattered to receive the door sticker from the mansion earlier! Ninghou has never been with us family friends since he took over the title. When dealing with old friends, I thought they looked down on us. I didn't expect that you would be the first to come to our Zhen Guogong's mansion."

Jia Qiang shook her head and said, "Uncle Niu, I'm not very sophisticated, and even tired of being greeted and sent to the banquet host, but I didn't intend to neglect and neglect your family friends. From now on, I will visit from house to house and eat a few home-cooked meals. There is also a sense of intimacy." Originally, he planned to bring Jia Lian together, but after thinking about it, it is better for him to talk about the houses of the Zhen Guogong Mansion by himself.For those who are easy to tear their skins, bring Jia Lian together...

Hearing this, Niu Jizong narrowed his narrow eyes, and said with a smile: "Ninghou is much more free and easy than us ordinary people. It is the best, and others dare not boast. The pickled cucumbers in our Zhenguo Mansion can be found in the whole city of Shenjing." I can't find anything better! Would Ninghou be willing to try it?"

Jia Qiang raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Okay! I only ate two bowls of rice tonight, and I feel a little hungry."

Niu Jizong laughed loudly when he heard the words: "It's a blessing to be able to eat, it's a blessing to be able to eat! Let's go to the side hall, let's taste the taste of this pickled cucumber."

After Niu Jizong took Jia Qiang along the Chaoshou corridor for two rounds, he didn't even go to the side hall, but went directly to the dining hall, and also left behind a group of servants serving in the main hall and side hall.

The two sat down, and when the cook served pickled cucumbers, a few small dishes and a barrel of rice, Niu Jizong waved his hand and sent the cook away.

Then he personally filled a bowl full of rice for Jia Qiang, and said with a smile: "I know that Marquis Ning will go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so let's talk while eating!"

After all, I added another big bowl to myself.

Jia Qiang was not shy either, she shook her arms and ate a big bowl of rice with the pickled cucumber, and then put her hand away, but she still didn't eat the pickled cucumber with chopsticks, she kept smiling and looking at him Niu Jizong said: "Uncle Niu, I came here this time to be a bad customer. I hope Uncle Niu can return the shortfall of the household department as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Niu Jizong laughed and said, "I guessed that Marquis Ning probably came here for this matter. Tsk, Lin Ruhai has got a good son-in-law!"

Jia Qiang knew that things were not that simple, Niu Jizong really didn't even bother, Jia Qiang looked at him and nodded, and said: "Uncle Niu is currently serving as an errand in the yamen of the infantry commander. As an earl, he leads five hundred soldiers and horses. .Now Wang Ziteng is leading the Fengtai camp. He has [-] battalions under his command. He is about to change the battalion commanders. Each battalion will have [-] troops. Is Uncle Niu interested?"

Niu Jizong added a piece of pickled cucumber to his mouth, smacked the taste, and said slowly: "Wang Ziteng is afraid now that he wants us to fight for him?"

Jia Qiang nodded, and said: "Indeed, but, it doesn't necessarily have to be from the noble families of the founding hero family, the Yuanping hero family also has a lot of idle hero families, and the eyeballs are almost green from hunger. Uncle Niu, if you give them a chance to lead troops, would they be willing to join the Fengtai Camp?"

Niu Jizong's complexion changed slightly when he heard the words, and he looked at Jia Qiang with narrow eyes and said, "Wang Ziteng will dig his own foundation? Back then, the Duke of Rong Guo had a very unhappy fight with the heroes of Yuanping. Wang Ziteng can have today's status, but how much he relies on The power of your Jia family..."

Jia Qiang shook her head and said: "The Wang family has reached this height, if they are really pushed, it is not impossible to change the family."

Niu Jizong laughed suddenly, and said: "Ninghou, Ninghou, this is not true. Wang Ziteng was able to reach this position not only because of the merits of the Jia family, but also because the emperor wanted to use the founding line to balance Yuanping The holy intention of the hero is here. If he turns around and goes to the Yuanping hero's lair, he may not be able to sit still for a day."

Jia Qiang didn't find it funny at all, looked at Niu Jizong and said softly, "Yes, the holy will is the most important. The holy will is the most important."

Niu Jizong's complexion changed when he heard the words, but Jia Qiang didn't let him speak again, and said in a deep voice, "Uncle Niu, who is the meaning of my husband's recovery of the deficit? I don't need to say more. The hero of Yuanping is poor. It is bound to be difficult to accept in a short while. At this time, if the founding hero can set an example, it is self-evident where the holy will is biased. The military power in the hands of the Yuanping hero will definitely be weakened. Who will control the weakened military power? Need to say more? At this time, whoever takes the first step will leave an impression of loyalty and respect in the heart of the emperor. Why can the Jiang family of Zhao Guogong prosper for three generations for decades? Isn’t it because they always stand in the heart of the emperor first Is it? Uncle Niu will not fail to understand this truth."

Having said all this, Niu Jizong looked at Jia Qiang with a wry smile and said, "Ninghou, speaking of which you are not an outsider, I won't hide it from you. The foundation of the Zhenguo government is far inferior to that of the Jia family. It is not a small family business, and the generation of the second generation of Rong Gong not only maintained the Jia family, but also became more glorious than the ancestors. But the Niu family, although not sitting on the mountain, is really not as satisfactory. The deficit is really unaffordable , If it’s really over, the family doesn’t even have enough for next month’s consumption. If I’m asked to sell my ancestral property, it’s even worse to kill me, the Duke of Zhen’s family can’t afford to lose such a person!”

Jia Qiang pursed her lips, looked at Niu Jizong, and said, "If you don't sell the land, do you have antique furniture? Are there any useless gold and silver wares piled up in the warehouse? I don't believe it. A treasure as a family heirloom? Listen to me first..." Seeing that Niu Jizong was about to speak, Jia Qiang stopped him and said, "Uncle Niu, it's shameful to sell your ancestral property, but why don't you think about it. What will the Son of Heaven think when it spreads to the palace? Is it the useless dead things that matter, or the future of your Duke’s Mansion? As for these ancestral properties, you can buy them after you earn money in the future!"

Niu Jizong said speechlessly: "I understand the truth, but how should I get rid of the things? I can't send my family to pawnshops, right? Besides, our honor is expensive, but his mother has no money to do it for me." , when can I buy it back again?"

When Jia Qiang heard this, she smiled and said, "Uncle Niu, do you believe in what I can do?"

Niu Jizong looked at the young man sitting across from him, who was obviously much younger than him, but his imposing title was a head higher than his. He lightly stroked his fat chin, and said with a smile: "In today's noble circles, don't worry about Yuan Hero of Ping is still hero of founding the country, you are recognized as the No.1 of the younger generation, much smarter than that bastard of Zhao Guogong Jiang's family..."

Hearing that Niu Jizong still regarded him as a member of the younger generation, Jia Qiang sneered and said, "The Qi family, the head of the eight major salt merchants in Yangzhou, do you know Qi Taizhong, the old master?"

Hearing this, Niu Jizong opened his eyes and said, "Of course I know, that's an old fox!"

Jia Qiang said with a smile: "It is indeed an old fox, but now this old fox not only cooperates with me in many business transactions, but also sends his eldest grandson to the capital to follow me. The family came to take over, and then transported to the south to sell to the rich in the south of the Yangtze River. Uncle Niu, I was not even a third-class general when I was in Yangzhou. Tell me, why did the Qi family bet so heavily on me?"

Niu Jizong blinked and said, "For Lin Ruhai?"

Jia Qiang twitched the corner of her mouth speechlessly, and said: "Because of me, because I am Jia Qiang! If the Zhen Guo Gongfu wants to earn some money, there is no need to bother to go to the Ministry of Accounts to suffer losses, and directly cooperate with me. Said, the net profit of 1 taels of silver a year is still no problem."

Hearing this, Niu Jizong widened his eyes and said, "How much money do you need?"

Jia Qiang chuckled, and said, "You definitely don't have that much cash. There are those antique furniture and gold and silver utensils piled up that have never seen the light of day. I'll let someone come and pull a few carts away. Once I come, I will pay back the shortfall." , secondly, the balance is regarded as equity capital. Looking back, I will ask you to ask for some people who can work hard. In the middle of this year, you will be able to share a sum of money. Uncle Niu, speaking of these, these are actually small heads. The eyes of the Son of Heaven will be of great use in the future, so don’t they need chewing?”

In this land, no matter when, as long as you have the right, there is no shortage of silver...

Hearing this, Niu Jizong chewed a stick of incense with a cucumber in his mouth, squinted his eyes, stared at Jia Qiang, and finally said slowly: "Ninghou's way of doing things, I probably see There are some traces. I just want to ask, what are Ninghou and Lin Shilang going to do for those people who are determined not to repay their losses or sell their property?"

Hearing this, Jia Qiang lowered her eyes and said softly, "In front of Uncle Niu, I don't tell lies. If you are a family of meritorious officials, if you really want to find some faults, you can easily find them. Those who don't take the initiative to repay the deficit, the court will pay you back." I will help him copy it. It’s just that I really don’t want to go to that scene and make my loved ones hurt and my enemies quick.”

Niu Jizong only felt a toothache. He looked at Jia Qiang with a bitter smile and said, "How come you are such a ruthless person among our founding heroes?"

Jia Qiang raised her eyes, smiled, and said, "Then Uncle Niu means..."
