Chapter 464 The ultimate move
Jia Zheng was in a state of deep affection. When he was immersed in his emotions, Jia She snorted coldly and said sarcastically: "Brother Huan, don't exaggerate it. Where is it like this? Aren't you very good at doing business? You can manage the business in the mansion."
Jia Huan glanced at Jia She with a expressionless face and turned back, "Uncle, I am a scholar!"
"Puchi--" Jia Rong, who was sitting at the last place, almost burst out laughing in her heart. This made the master feel uncomfortable.
In the situation of the state dynasty, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce were the lowest. Although Confucian businessmen emerged in Jiangnan, the same view was still the case in the capital and the north. As a noble Hanlin, Huan was certainly not suitable for doing business.
Jia She held his breath in his throat and stared at Jia Huan hatefully. He had a blind spot in his mind and forgot about this.
Jia Lian sighed in his heart, feeling uncomfortable for him. Brother Huan's mouth is in the mansion, so he has to be one of the best.
Jia Huan and Jia She had a quarrel for the first time, which made Jia Zheng feel uncomfortable, interrupted his thoughts, and asked Jia Huan with a serious expression: "Brother Huan, what are you going to do?"
Jia Huan habitually bowed and replied: "Father, it's nothing more than four words: increasing revenue and reducing expenditure. The servants in our family have children, and the generations have lived and reproduced, and the population is large. Those who should be cleared out, and those who should be released should be released.
Secondly, when doing things, you should not be greedy. The funds for doing things can only be 10% at most. If you take too much, you will have to be punished. Before, you should give up the money you greedy and dirty money and make up for it. Especially for the cost of building a garden, if you get all the money you garrison, you will have all the money you garnered from. "
Seeing Jia Huan openly instigating Jia Zheng to investigate his account in person, Jia She immediately shouted dissatisfiedly: "Good boy, who do you want to investigate?"
Jia Huan was unmoved and then said to Jia Zheng: "Father, according to investigation, Zhang Cai and Shan Daliang's family were greedy and had been greedy for nearly 20,000 taels of silver. These two people must have investigated, imitating the old examples of the Lai family."
Jia Rong and Jia Lian were very careful about the greed and defilement of Zhang Cai and Shan Daliang's families in the leadership group of the rectification movement. Jia Zheng was shocked immediately when he heard about such a thing.
Jia Huan was very accurate in Jia Zheng's thoughts. Jia Zheng's idea can be summed up in "A harmonious family will prosper". He could not have a conflict with Jia She. It was impossible for him to let the concubine's son check the elder brother's accounts. If this makes a fuss, he would be embarrassed.
However, Jia Huan suggested checking the servants and housekeepers at home, which would have no psychological barriers for Jia Zheng.
Jia Zheng angrily patted the armrest of the Nanmu chair and said ruthlessly: "Okay. I am still too generous to my servants. This has led to such a thing happening at home. If you eat your master and take your master's. From now on, we must make good rectifications and rectifications. Brother Huan, please let go of the investigation."
Jia She left Jia Huan aside, and then stopped Jia Zheng's words and said harshly: "Second brother, no investigation is allowed. Otherwise, don't blame me for saying ugly words in front of you."
Although Jia She is greedy and lustful, he has at least a few points of home fighting skills, unlike Jia Zheng who is completely incompetent in practice.
Jia Huan's routine is very simple. The fourth housekeeper Zhang Cai, whom he wants to investigate, is Jia She's confidant. The eldest housekeeper Shan Daliang recently defected to Jia She to protect himself. If Jia She can't protect these two people now, it can be said that in the future, if he talks in the Jia family, as long as he conflicts with Jia Huan's opinions, no one will listen to him.
Jia Zheng looked at his brother in embarrassment, tried to reason, and advised: "Brother, you haven't heard the data listed just now by Brother Huan. Why not..." In the eyes of Mr. Zheng, except for the servants and maids in each room, the rest of the people were from the Jia family. His elder brother had a conflict with him for the two housekeepers, which was a bit unreasonable.
Jia She interrupted Jia Zheng rudely and sneered: "Second brother, I am the eldest son, right? Let your son explain the account of Brother Lin."
Before Jia Zheng could speak, Jia Huan helped the boxing side and said to Jia She, "Uncle, don't be too greedy. Uncle Lin asked Brother Lian to bring a million taels of silver to his family. How could it not be enough for Lin Meimei to use it? The 200,000 taels of silver here is Lin Meimei's private money.
Furthermore, even if my uncle wants it, I don’t have it here. The imperial concubine in the palace needs to pay, and the upper and lower levels need some money. I will invest this money in the palace."
This is a statement that Jia Huan and Jia Zheng had already agreed on.
Jia She's angry face turned blue, her chest was undulating, and she was breathing heavily. This was another bullshit, nonsense, fooling people, but he had no choice but to make him helpless. He couldn't go to the eunuchs to reconcile. As much as Jia Huan said, it was as much as he could.
Jia Zheng looked at his brother Jia She, and scolded Jia Huan and said, "The elders talk, how can you interrupt me?" He said to Jia She, "Brother, Lin Meifu has only one daughter left in the house, and entrusted her to Brother Huan to take care of her. Let's take a step back."
Jia Zheng was confused and still knew very well that the big head of building a garden was his brother. When Jia Huan came back last year, the two of them had tit-for-tat about this matter. He did not intend to investigate Jia She's account, nor did he ask Jia She to investigate Jia Huan's account. However, now he wants to investigate the account of his servant.
Jia She had an old face coldly and sneered, "I want to take a step back, but why did you father and son force me to the head?" As he said that, he scolded Jia Lian again, "Where are you, you useless thing, sitting to hold your body."
Jia Lian was so embarrassed that his face was completely disgraceful. He stood up from the chair and said with a sarcastic smile: "Master, Brother Huan, why don't you forget about this? Shan Daliang and Zhang Cai were doing things for the mansion, so he called them over and scolded them, so he left some face."
The situation suddenly became stiff. Jia Zheng pondered in a little embarrassedly and could not make a decision.
Jia Rong still sat calmly, actually watching the show. At this time, she shook her head in her heart and sighed. It's no wonder that Uncle Huan did not rely on Uncle Lian, and it was unreliable at the critical moment. Of course, Uncle Lian also had his difficulties. He was the eldest master's own son, and there was no reason not to speak for him.
Jia Huan just pretended to be a slander and was sitting down to have tea. To be honest, although the scene was very intense at this moment, he was not nervous.
He joined forces with Jia She to move the Jia family, which required energy and careful planning to succeed. However, it was very simple for him to join forces with Jia Zheng, the head of the Jia family, to move the Jia family (Jia She).
At this time, he opened his trump card. Since he took the initiative to cause trouble for Jia She, he was certainly prepared to suppress Jia She. Unprepared, he launched such a huge rectification campaign to burn the fire on Jia She?
Jia Huan once again ignored Jia Zheng's "repriman" just now and interjected coldly, "Uncle, it's not that I force you. It's that you are too greedy to make money. You have sent Brother Lian to Ping'an Prefecture to work in business and visit the Ping'an Jiedushi. My nephew wants to ask, what are you doing?"
In Rongxi Hall, Jia Huan's words suddenly became quiet. In an instant, I could hear the sound of candles burning, and the sound of summer coming from afar outside Rongxi Hall: cicadas, frogs, insects, and human voices.
Jia Zheng looked at his brother in surprise and couldn't speak for a long time. He was really excited.
Jia She was originally "feeling" Jia Huan and was furious. She was panting and scolding Jia Lian, pointing at the same time. At this time, she stopped. Jia Lian's face became stiff and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Jia Rong, who was watching the show, was also sitting upright, stunned.
It’s not a big mistake for the male protagonists of the Jia family to have such a big reaction. Because Ping'an Prefecture is located on the northern border, more than a thousand miles away from the capital. The nobles in the capital have made friends with foreign governors, especially those on the border. What do you want to do?
The first reaction of a normal person is: rebellion!
This is the crime of the three tribes of the family being confiscated! Why did the Jia family rebel to the point of rebellion? But will the emperor listen to your explanation? What a joke?
The official system of the state dynasty was a false title. For example, Jia Huan's teacher Zhang Anbo once gave the position of a false title of Huaiyang Jiedushi as a second-rank. For example, Jia Daihua, an elder who had already passed away in Ningguo Mansion, and Wang Ziteng was once the Jiedushi of Jingying.
This is also a false title. As the core force to protect the capital, the power of the 12th Battalion of the Beijing Camp is in the hands of civil servants. Of course, the emperor will send eunuchs to serve as military supervisors.
The rank of governor Zhang of Ping'an Prefecture (from the fifth rank) and the title of Jiedushi are basically in the state, and the military and political forces are in charge, and they keep their words. It is very dangerous to make friends with such a person. If you find it out for the Jinyiwei and report it to the emperor, a disaster will immediately come.
This matter was revealed to Jia Huan. What confidence can Jia She have in front of Jia Zheng and others? This is the rhythm of bringing the family to death.
Jia Zheng looked at Jia She, slowly and asked seriously: "Brother..., what's going on?"
It was revealed to Jia Huan, but it would not be possible to not explain it clearly. Jia She took a deep breath and said, "Second brother, there is no businessman who wants to do medicinal materials and fur business with the tribes on the northern grassland. He has to pass Zhang Zhizhou. I have participated in it."
Jia Huan laughed and said, "Uncle, don't avoid the important things. As far as I know, iron tools have always been the big part of border smuggling goods. The court prohibits smuggling iron tools onto the grassland, right?" He reminded Jia Zheng.
Jia Zheng stared at Jia She. It was related to the future of the family and his own wealth and life. How could Jia Zheng dare to be confused?
Jia She sighed in a deep sigh and said, "Forget it, I promise not to participate anymore. You should check it out if you want to check it out." As he said that, he stood up and left Rongxi Hall.
He admitted defeat.
As the saying goes, if you die, I will not die. Of course, Jia She will not give up the business in the north, which is a profitable business. However, his brother can indeed suppress him. Shan Daliang and Zhang Cai will throw them out. If you really force his brother to reveal this, it will be a big problem.
Jia Zheng was unwilling to force his brother too much. Seeing that Jia She made a promise, he gave up the matter and ordered Jia Huan and the other two, saying, "Brother Huan, you can handle the matter in the mansion well. If you should check it, check it."
"Yes, father."
After Jia Zheng finished speaking, he sighed deeply and left Rongxi Hall with great worries. The discussion ended.
Jia Lian smiled embarrassedly at Jia Huan. There was no doubt that he lost points in front of Brother Huan today. However, the matter of his trip to Ping'anzhou is very secret, how did Brother Huan know?
Jia Huan nodded and left Rongxi Hall first. He knew that Jia Lian was so urinary: he was unreliable at critical moments. Many times, he was more willing to use Jia Rong who was afraid of him in his heart.
He didn't believe Jia She's words. With Jia She's greedy personality, a profitable border trade and smuggling business, Jia She is willing to give up, don't do it? Let's talk nonsense.
The fundamental reason for the decline of the Jia family is that Jia Yuanchun and Wang Ziteng, the flag figures of the four major families, failed in the political game. But other reasons cannot be ignored. One of them is: Jia She has made friends with the governor of Ping'anzhou.
Pig teammates!
However, Jia Huan can't do it now. He can only suppress Jia She and prevent him from causing trouble. The serious ones are actually eliminated and done once and for all. However, he cannot do such a thing. It would be strange if Jia She had an accident for no reason, Jia Mu would not fight with him.
Walking out of Rongxi Hall, Jia Huan let out a sigh of relief. Yue Mingxing was sparse. The servants outside were dispersing with their masters. The four main housekeepers of the Rongguo Mansion waiting outside: Shan Daliang, Lin Zhixiao, Wu Xingdeng, and Zhang Cai were all still there.
"Third Master..." Several people greeted Jia Huan outside Rongxi Hall.
