The silver arrived in a moment, and Lai Xing'er handed over the silver ticket to Xue Pan, and Xue Pan was not polite, and asked Zhen'er to put it away, and he didn't look at it, but it made Jia Lian look a little higher.

After three rounds of drinking, Xue Pan is very poor in drinking, this year's daughter is red, but the degree is not too high, so he drank a few glasses, at this time he was already a little dizzy, and he couldn't blindly drink stuffy wine, so he also had to find some topics, "It is said that the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, not to mention that your family has two princes, it is really prominent, how to listen to the meaning of the second brother, it is very difficult?" Isn't the second brother here to scold me? ”

Jia Lian was eating a duck head with osmanthus saltwater, and when he heard Xue Pan say this, he hurriedly shook his chopsticks, "Oh, Brother Wenlong, you are here to make fun of me," he had already fulfilled his wish at this time, so he spoke with a smile in his mouth, and he was a little more unrestrained, "The set you played in Jinling is really bold, I would never dare to do this." ”

"Oh? Which set is it? ”

"You're still playing stupid!" Jia Lian smiled and said, "I copied your two-room uncle, this thing is really beautiful, brother, I am very envious." ”

The two of them sat cross-legged on the kang and talked about each other, "But all the families can not escape the law of prosperity and decline, but there is a reason for this, this is not ordinary, our Dayue Dynasty, since the founding of the country, but there has been no peace, a few chaos, many families have entered, the East Mansion and our West Mansion have been peaceful, this is the best appearance." Jia Lian sighed a little, "Just talking about the change in Jinguyuan more than ten years ago, the Holy Queen killed people from the Divine Palace all the way to the Yellow River!" Most of the people here are from the families who followed the rebellion. ”

Jia Lian is just a young man, and the old things are not clear, just a passing pass, just the status quo of the two mansions, "The title is inherited in a decreasing manner, for example, in our Dongfu, Brother Zhen, is already inherited as the general of the three-rank Jue Weilie, not to mention anything else, this is less, this bit of silver in front of Wenlong, it is a little stingy, but there are thousands of taels of silver, and a lot of expenses in the family are enough," Jia Lian explained, "In addition to the income is less, the most expenses, I think, should be divided into rooms." ”

The big family's separate house and separate living system is about an important factor in the slow decline of the family, such as Jia Qiang in Ningguofu, who is the righteous great-grandson of Ningguofu, and later because of his bad reputation, Jia Zhen also felt that "it is not good to hear some rumors, and I have to avoid some suspicions", so I "divided the house and ordered Jia Qiang to move out of Ningfu and go to live by himself." ”

Obviously, Ning Guofu's property has decreased, not to mention anything else, this house has been divided, and the fixed materials have been reduced, so if this is a convention, as long as it is self-reliant, you can distribute a piece of family property, then at the beginning, the furniture is abundant, and there are not many people, so naturally there is no need to worry about anything, but the Ning Rong family has been inherited for decades, and the people are prosperous, and sometimes, it is not a good thing.

Jia Lian's so-called envy of Xue Pan is nothing more than that the Xue family still has a livelihood to do, not worrying about the exhaustion of mountains and rivers, although the livelihood of each house is constantly shrinking, of course, there are many people who are filling their own pockets, this is originally the most difficult thing to deal with, after all, everyone is their own family, breaking bones and connecting tendons, but everyone never expected Xue Pan to be such a lonely character, raiding the house at once, and stripping the business of two houses, the people of Rongguo Mansion in Ningguo Mansion are divided into family and property, he is good, not only not divided into families, also confiscated the property of the other rooms, and the Xue family's capital was abundant all of a sudden, so Jia Lian said this.

"If the second brother is not afraid of being scolded, it can be the same," Xue Pan picked up a mud snail and took a bite, and said with a smile, "The people in the family are the richest, whether it is another room or the subordinates of the family." ”

Jia Lian shook his head, "I don't have the courage to do this, I don't have the right name, I will do the things in front of me more or less, and the rest really dare not do it, and only Brother Wenlong Xian, who is the patriarch and the son of the long house, can have such authority." ”

Jia Lian is not a person who is afraid of things, Jia Erye is very famous in the capital, but although he takes care of the affairs of the family, his identity is quite embarrassing, and he has many constraints, which damages his face, so it is naturally inconvenient to explain it to Xue Pan.

"Fortunately, I came here with Brother Wenlong," Jia Lian said with a smile, "TOEFL TOEFL, bring me the salt evenly, and I can explain to the master this time." ”

"Forgive my brother for being blunt," Xue Pan said, "Second brother is preparing for this and doing it himself?" ”

"I have to ask the master what he means, but my own ideas, naturally do it myself," Jia Lian said with a smile, "If it is handed over to someone else, it will be one layer less," he has to find silver in the oil pot to make it, and he is willing to give others another layer of exploitation, "It's better to always do it yourself." ”

Xue Pan felt bad, "Most of the people in the salt merchants have someone behind them, there is no doubt about this, but no one has personally gone down to run the salt industry, first, the smell of copper in his hands is a joke, and secondly, he is also out of the matter, so as not to have many disputes, according to my idea, the second brother is still handed over to a proper commercial bank to handle it, and when the time comes, the silver will come for a long time, and it will not be delayed." ”

Jia Lian was very disapproving, he didn't like to read since he was a child, and his father Jia Yu had very little control over him, he was familiar with the situation at home since he was a child, and later co-organized a lot of affairs, these affairs were all very proper, and no one said anything bad about gossip, Xue Pan's advice, in his opinion, was very irrelevant, but it was hard to say anything just after receiving kindness, so he only laughed and raised his wine glass, "Please drink." ”

Xue Pan stopped drinking, he was a little dizzy, and shook his head, "When the alcohol is up, I won't drink it anymore, and I still have important things to do tomorrow." ”

Jia Lian no longer persuaded him, so the kitchen sent a sobering soup with perilla horseshoe and crucian carp sour bamboo shoots, which was sour and delicious, Xue Pan drank a big bowl before putting it down, "In a few days, Mrs. Gu will be funeral, and the second brother can't watch this matter." ”

"Naturally," Jia Lian said with a smile, "If the matter is not done, I will not be able to explain to the ancestor when I go back." ”

The two of them were still talking, and Li Rubang came in with a letter, "It's all a letter." ”

Xue Pan opened it and said happily, "Okay, good!" He said to Jia Lian, "My uncle has been promoted. ”

"Oh?" Jia Lian hurriedly asked, "But the envoy of the Jingying Festival that I said before?" ”

"Yes, but there's also an official!"
