Returning the Way (38)

Jitian must not be back. These people are holding their energy and just want 100,000 taels of silver.

Not given?

I don't want to check them out.

Jia Zheng is a shameless person. How can he call people like this?

Seeing that Baoyu came over again, Jia Zheng immediately scolded: Incompetent idiot! How did you say what you asked you to pass on to the old lady? What did you do now?

Baoyu was not afraid, so he lowered his head slightly: The old lady fainted, how could he annoy the old lady again? If he went to copy, he would have to disturb her. What if the old lady had any good or bad? As he said that, he raised his head and looked at Jia Zheng, looked at Jia She again, and then said: There is not only the house left in the mansion. He looked at Jia Jing and Jia Zhen again: There is also the garden where he visited relatives. The garden was built between the two mansions, and the garden was entered from the west and the east. I think Brother Zhen has a clear idea of ​​how much the garden has consumed. Now he discounted the garden to Brother Zhen, and the hundred thousand taels of which made up for the deficit of the sacrifice field, and the extra silver made up for the deficit of the Xifu Ligong.

In other words, except for the 100,000 taels, the rest is given to Jia She's room.

This is a way.

As soon as this idea came out, Jia Zheng was happy: He felt that Baoyu's idea was to take the other party's army. It was a garden built for the empress. How many courage do they have to take the garden for themselves? With this shock, even if they have a few days to go on, things will be smooth and things will be smooth, and there will always be a way to settle this matter.

But Wang Xifeng felt that Baoyu's idea was insidious, so she couldn't help but look at Baoyu more. With her understanding of Jia She and Jia Zhen, there was nothing that they dare not do. For example, now, when it comes to selling gardens, these two must be moved. The East Mansion has always been more abundant than the West Mansion. First, there were fewer masters in the East Mansion and less work, that is, Jia Zhen was in the flower world, but the flower world's energy was to tie Jia She. But in the West Mansion, Jia She's expenses were not the most. The most was Jia Zheng's expenses for raising guests and making elegance, which was the expenses for the empress to be sent to the palace every month. Even the old lady's food and drink were not the most. Besides, which master in the West Mansion was not the master? Who could he neglect? Once the master was more, the expenses would naturally be high. But what about the East Mansion? Rong?

How much money can my brother get from him? The money in his hand is not something that Lian Er can reward, or it is a god or ghost. He is a man who is in the middle of the house. However, the foundation of the mansion is not moved. As for Youshi, he is a grandmother, but he is just a girl with a key. She has all her body, and she has a thousand taels of money? It's just a grandmother's air. Besides, she doesn't have much money to marry. Besides, she doesn't have much money to marry. She lives a tight life. And Jia Zhen is a person who can enjoy the love of the wind and misfortune. Now he has such a good place to have fun. How can he not be moved? Jia She has never had much money to stay with him. Now he has no money to buy it. Now that he has to pay for the money in the garden, except for the 100,000 taels, he will naturally compensate him. He is eager to sell it out.

But in this way, the originally intimate relationship will disappear instantly. Jia She wanted to ask for more, but Jia Zhen was unwilling to give more. These two back-and-forth disputes hurt all the love.

Isn't this idea so insulting?

There were also those tribe members who followed Jia Zhen. Jia Zhen could not make up for the 100,000 taels of silver. He was also a plucked hair by a geese. Those tribe members had long been red. If this was the case, would they be willing to give up?

Wang Xifeng gently pulled Jia Lian's sleeve, thinking that it would be really bad if she stayed in this place.

Jia Lian understood and stood up and whispered to Jia She: Father stays here first, son takes his wife back first, the old lady fainted, I helped call the imperial physician and asked Feng Yat to stare at him.

It means staring at Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang, guarding against them being haunted.

After saying this, Jia She first agreed, so he had to watch it, and then said: Go! Go quickly! Don’t worry about anything, it’s not important to be the old lady. You two should wait and see you.

After getting this, the couple ran away immediately.

Jia She then asked Jia Zhen with a smile on her face: Nephew, can you eat this yard if you don't want it? If you don't want it, we will take it out. Of course, how much land you occupy and how many shares you have, and then you will be fine. Then she sighed: I took it for granted. It took a hundred thousand taels to build this garden. Where can you take so much money now?

Uncle Jia Zhen hurriedly said: How much money does it cost to build it? How much money will it have to be sold now? This garden also has a part of my family. Even if it is for takeout, I dare to say that I can't sell that much money. In this case, 200,000 taels will be added. We can get the silver goods immediately.

Jia She immediately stopped smiling: My eldest nephew, I don’t take advantage of the situation to rob! Two hundred thousand taels? No such thing! That’s it! Since you can’t afford the price, I think so, let’s find someone to take out. The salt merchants in the south have money, they are them.

Uncle, I have half of this garden. If I don’t sell the half, you can’t sell the remaining half. So, don’t forget that I spent the land on the garden and I also spent 100,000 taels of silver. I spent 250,000 taels of money on the remaining half. I am not a small amount of 250,000 taels.

Three hundred thousand taels! Jia She gritted his teeth and gave the price: 300 thousand taels are taken, and we can now establish a document.

Jia Zhen smiled: OK! The extra 50,000 taels, even if the nephew is filial to his uncle, it will be 300,000 taels.

Then he turned around and took 200,000 taels: I deducted the 100,000 taels of silver for the sacrifice of the field directly. Now, the sacrifice of the field has nothing to do with the West Mansion anymore. This is the remaining 200,000 taels, please take it.

Jia She looked at him carefully with the silver notes, as if he was afraid of fooling him with fakes.

But it didn't appear. The Fourth Master whispered to Jia Xia, and then a sarcastic smile flashed in Jia Xia's eyes and she quickly left.

Jia Zheng's hands were trembling: It was a garden built for the Empress! It was not only the money from our Jia family, but also the flowers and trees given by the Yu family and Heng brothers, the stones given by the Lin family, the silver added by the Xue family, the Wang family and the Shi family.

Jia She carefully put the silver in his arms, and regardless of the Fourth Master was still on the spot, he said: Whoever they asked for, they wanted to go. The silver was not handed over to me, so I want me to accept the account? Don’t think about it!

But obviously, the money in his arms was not warmed up, and someone from the Ministry of Revenue came to find the heads of the East and West governments.

Jia Jing raised his eyelids and looked at the Fourth Master, nodded to the Fourth Master, expressing his gratitude.

Now that the person who wants the account is here, he takes advantage of the gap in cheating out all the money and quickly pay it back. It is a crime, a crime.

Jia She didn't know that his family was still owed 380,000 taels of silver. Now the 200,000 taels in his hand are not warm yet. It's not enough to hand it over to others. He still owed 180,000 taels. The person from the Ministry of Revenue said: Since you can take out 200,000 taels on your body at random, I think that the 180,000 taels will be able to get all together tomorrow. Then tomorrow morning, I will get the 180,000 taels.

And Ningguo Mansion actually owes no less than Rongguo Mansion, and owes as much as 360,000 yuan.

The family had already spent 200,000 taels of money before, and then took 360,000 taels, where could they get it?

Jia Jing said: If you don’t have any money, you can use the property to pay off your debts. The garden was visited by the imperial concubine and asked you to go in and commit suicide. Do you dislike your sins? Fortunately, Brother Heng called someone from the Ministry of Revenue, and then avoided one crime and paid off the debts. Didn’t this garden just buy it?

It is worth 300,000 taels. Jia Zhen said with a naive look on his face: Use this to pay off the debt, let's get another 60,000 taels.

Let’s wait. People don’t recognize this price: Can the price be counted if your family members have their own things? It’s okay to pay to the Ministry of Revenue, but this price has to be calculated separately.

As a result, the people didn't look at the garden, saying that they were afraid of disturbing the female family. They looked very polite and polite, and then said: 200,000 taels! 200,000 taels!

Jia Zhen wanted to defend himself, but he said: It wasn't that you paid 200,000 taels at the beginning, but later the price was to be filial to your uncle. That was not the price of the garden. We can't let us admit this account.

Jia Zhen was frightened and even knew what he said before.

No matter how dare he dare to speak, he had to eat even if he had to eat, and if he didn't eat, he had to eat even if he didn't. The garden had to pay 200,000 taels of silver for Ningguo Mansion, which means he had to pay another 160,000 taels. And he still owed his clan members 100,000 taels of silver for the sacrifice field.

They also said that the 160,000-yuan family will come to pick it up tomorrow morning.

After saying that, Shi Shi left.

The Fourth Master glanced at Jia Yun. Jia Yun understood and pretended to go over to serve tea, but muttered in a low voice when passing by Jia Qin and others: How can I take it out? The 100,000 taels in the clan seem to be going to waste.

When Jia Qin heard this, he became anxious and hurriedly said: Let’s not delay the clan leader today. The clan leader has some major issues. Let’s just disperse the 100,000 taels per cent. Just divide the sects and the sects, and then divide them into the sects, so that they won’t cause any more trouble to the clan.

Those who were willing to follow Ningguo Mansion in the past, but now look at it, Ningguo Mansion is just like this. It would be better to take the money and find a way out for yourself as soon as possible.

Therefore, the tribe members who had been united by Jia Zhen before all extended their hands, with only one meaning: we will share the money with it.

Jia Jing felt relieved: It’s OK if it’s gone! It’s OK if it’s gone! Only when it’s gone can there be a way out.

So he scolded Jia Zhen: Take the money! The big man spoke, spitting and nailing.

Jia Zhen dared not ignore it. When he took the silver, he gritted his teeth. He looked at Jia Qin and others and looked at him as if he was spitting out of his teeth. His words seemed to be squeezed out of his teeth: I have to take it, don't wait until I go out and be snatched away.

It was a scary sentence, but who knew that the hometown in Jinling was really taken. They believed these people, and they were just clamoring. How could they explain the division clearly? And they had to divide it now and get it here immediately.

So, he called the money shop again and got a scattered silver note of 100,000 taels of silver. He divided it according to the heads of the males in the clan, making a noise, and it was not until the evening that it was allocated.

With so many people coming in and out, the farce of the Jia family has long been known to everyone in the capital.

Now each has received money, some have gone to have fun and delicacies, while others have curled up near the two mansions. They dare not walk far away at night, for fear of accidents. They just wait for tomorrow morning, change their clothes, and then they will return home without mentioning each other.

The Fourth Master came back very late, and he really waited until it was over before he came back. He learned the matter from Lin Yutong.

Now that it is scattered like this, it is better than the ending of scattering with money falling from the tree. If these tribesmen are upright and take advantage of the fact that the tribe's brand has not yet collapsed and they can buy the industry with money, they can be considered as being able to take root independently.

As for those who are not good at it, they really deserve to lose their family business and rely on it. They live on the streets and starve to death and freeze to death.

Seeing the Fourth Master having dinner, Lin Yutong said he asked him to wash up. The Fourth Master didn't say: I can't stay at home at night, so I'd better go to the Zhongshun Palace to avoid it. It just so happened that there was something important to tell him. The two mansions didn't want to return the remaining money to the Ministry of Revenue, so they must find it. Go back and invite an imperial physician to stay at home, and they just said that you are tired today and have a fetal aura, so no one should see you.

It was as expected by the Fourth Master, both mansions had the idea of ​​the Fourth Master.

Jia She forced Jia Zheng to go back: No matter what, you have to find this money. Your wife is in charge and has lost all the money. Now that I owe the treasury to pay back the money, you are watching the lord and just watch the emperor surrendered and asked us father and son to bear it. There is no such reason. If you are forced to force me, let's go to the yamen and say, "Go, I'm not afraid of embarrassing people. If you are not afraid of embarrassing the empress, then we'll make trouble."

Mrs. Xing also said: 180,000 taels of silver, where do we ask us to get it? In the past, you were the boss, but now something happened, we asked us to take it. This is not a way out for us. I just have to make trouble? I was not afraid of embarrassment and looked at Wang Xifeng again. Now I look at Wang Xifeng, but I also think she is too stupid: too, what's the use of just trying to do it if something happened? In those years, you were honest and just caring about your uncle and aunt. Now I beg your aunt to ask her to let go of her for the sake of the family, and let her go and let us go, so that she can save her life.

Wang Xifeng was embarrassed, with a white face, her eyes were crying red, and she was already choking. She seemed to be unable to bear the words, and she fell down staggeringly.

Ping'er helped her and told Jia Lian: Grandma hasn't come this month.

Jia Lian didn't care whether this was true or false, and hurriedly said: I asked someone to help your master go back. The imperial physician hasn't left yet, so I'll call him over and take a look.

The more Jia She was satisfied with this daughter-in-law, she had more eyesight. Knowing that she was embarrassed, she avoided it directly. He was so angry that he forced Jia Zheng: Do you take this money or not

Jia Zheng looked at Mrs. Wang: What did you say? His eyes were already very angry.

How could Mrs. Wang take out 180,000 taels? She left some silver and a few boxes of things, which were kept for Baoyu to marry. She cried: I really have no money. If you can't pawn the dowry, you can still collect a few thousand taels. Otherwise, it's okay to go slowly, I'll find the Xue family again.

Mrs. Xing sneered: Mrs. I'm afraid I don't know that the Xue family has moved out today. She said that the Xue family's house was repaired, and seeing that the family was busy, she didn't say anything. Now the rest of Lixiangyuan is just a stupid guy, and the people and the cage are no longer in the Jia family.

Mrs. Wang choked, but she didn't know what it meant: the Xue family is far away from her own family.

She said: Now, you really don’t have to pay off these money. Otherwise, you can find Tongya and his wife, either lending or asking Heng Geer to tell the Ministry of Revenue.

Jia Zheng nodded: Why did you forget this?

Jia She didn't speak, and to be honest, he didn't want to pay back the money. As long as the explanation was made, the family could squeeze out from the second house little by little, and the money would still fall into his hands. Why not do it? As for the money from the court, it was left to Lian'er and his wife to find a way to find a way. They hid quite a few of them.

As a result, before Lin Yutong could go to bed, she heard someone come to report that it was someone from the Jia family.

There is something happening in the clan today and Xichun is here, and Jia Xia and his wife are here. When someone comes, Jia Xia receives it.

There were two letters from Jia Zheng. One was to see if we could borrow some silver, and the other was to repay part of it first, and to ask here to say hello to the Ministry of Revenue.

Jia Xia remembered his brother's advice before leaving, and couldn't help but sigh. He could see these people and was expected again.

He didn't say anything else, but just handed over a stack of things.

The person who came was Jia Zheng's Qingke. He took this thing first, but he didn't know it was

Mr. Jia Xia sighed: It’s not that he is unwilling to help, I really don’t know how to help. This is what my sister-in-law just asked someone to do from the yamen today.

It is a box of various contract books, but its name is not Jia Heng, but Jia Yao.

Seeing that the other party was puzzled, Jia Xia said: You go back and reply to Mr. Zheng, he knows this. Before I got married that day, my brother and sister-in-law divided the property in the family into three parts, one for me, and one for my sister to dowry. You know, my sister said that the wedding date with Mr. Zhang was scheduled for March next year. Now the dowry list has been sent, and this is the part that cannot be moved. Only the brother's part is left in the family. Unfortunately, the fourth girl in the mansion was adopted by Master Jing to my family. My brother and sister-in-law could not say that she was favored by one and the other, so she passed all the money she had left for them to the fourth girl's name, and then she did it in the future.

For the dowry, I wanted to give the fourth girl a dowry. My brother said that he was an official and an elder brother, and he could still earn his family business in the future, so he really left a small village, and the rest was his sister-in-law's dowry. Master Zheng wanted to borrow money, but I really couldn't think of where my brother could get the money from. Even if he wanted to say hello to the Ministry of Revenue, I was afraid that it would not be possible now. My brother was called away by King Zhongshun, and I don't know if he entered the palace or went to the palace garden outside the city. There was no way to pass the message in that place. Moreover, he might be able to come back tomorrow, and maybe he might not be able to come back within three or five days or ten days, so I'm afraid it would be too late.

The man was shocked. Before the people here were sent away, there was someone from Ningguo Mansion. Jia Xia still said the same thing and said the same thing. The people from Ningguo Mansion were even more embarrassed. The fourth girl was still Master Zhen’s biological sister. They used the adopted girl as a biological girl and gave such a generous dowry. Is his biological brother embarrassed to say that he misappropriated these?

Not only can't, but you also have to help run away the people from Rongguo Mansion!

This man not only ran away quickly, but also showed his merits to Jia Zhen when he went back: It can be seen that he has a strong relationship with us there, but he is really no different to the girl.
To be continued...
