Chapter 261: Dowry
Except in front of Lin Daiyu, Lin Ruhai never regarded Jia Huan as a child from beginning to end.
As a powerful figure, it is impossible for him not to know Jia Huan's "glorious achievements" in the capital.
Being able to practice martial arts independently and endure inhuman suffering shows that the heart is resolute.
Being able to regain the connections of the old department with the help of the ancestors shows that he is not a reckless man, understands human feelings, and is not arrogant.
Being able to earn a lot of business shows that there is an economic mind, not a paste that does not eat minced meat.
Plus a deep background......
If Lin Ruhai only regards Jia Huan as a yellow-mouthed child, it can only show that he himself is a pedantic and sour literati who can't recognize the facts.
Moreover, if it weren't for the fact that he could clearly see Jia Huan's ability and potential, even if Lin Ruhai only had half a year to live, he would never let his only daughter be a shadowless wife.
If someone else made a promise to his daughter, when he became a marquis, he would grant her the position of a wife, and Lin Ruhai would do everything he could to kill him......
Bastard thing, deceived people to the Lin family.
Great Qin billions of Li people, I don't know how many capable people and strangers, and there are countless dragons and snakes in the recklessness, but ask them, who dares to look forward to being able to seal the marquis immediately?
Great is the extravagant hope to be a champion in the exam, and being a high-ranking official in the future can be regarded as green smoke on the ancestral grave.
If you are from a martial arts background, then you have the luxury of hoping that one day you will be able to become a general of the imperial court, go out to fight outside the fortress, fight with the bearded rakshasas, and finally be able to mix with the world, even if it is just a baron and a viscount, thank God.
Who would dare to hope that he would be able to attain the throne?
How can the position of prince be so easy to obtain?
Even at the beginning of the founding of the country, anyone who could be a marquis. Who doesn't have hundreds of thousands of rolling heads, most of them Tartars and Rakshasas.
As for the war in the country...... A group of civilians with weapons. What's so glorious about killing them?
The most important thing is the battle in the North Sea of the Rongguo. After crippling the entire southern army of the superpower Eros and killing the crown prince and the three major dukes, it greatly shocked the surrounding countries of Great Qin and brought peace to Great Qin for thirty years!
Although small frictions and local small wars still existed, large-scale battles of the 100,000-strong regiment became less and less frequent, and almost never happened again.
As a result, the soil of the feudal marquis has basically been lost.
Therefore, if someone else says to Lin Daiyu, wait for me to be the marquis immediately. Allow you to be a wife.
Lin Ruhai will definitely see it as a frivolous disciple deceiving his daughter.
But Jia Huan is different.
Jia Huan originally had a first-class viscount of Ning Guofu as the foundation, and the title he inherited was passed down from the hereditary Duke of Ning Guo.
That is to say, as long as he is down-to-earth, develops step by step, and makes meritorious contributions to his duty, he doesn't even need much merit, and the level of martial arts keeps up, then his title can rise step by step in the future. Until Ning Guogong. (Similar to the red children, as long as they are willing to endure hardships and are practical and capable, then the development will basically not be bad.) Ahem, it's not harmonious, right? )
Therefore, what Jia Huan said is still reliable.
And he's not just a guy who just talks about it. His execution ability, Lin Ruhai is still recognized.
So. Lin Ruhai treats him as equals......
"With such a big benefit, it is almost a business without capital. But they refused to pay even the taxes they should have paid. Not only did they not pay taxes, but they also smuggled smuggled salt in many ways. The entire Yangzhou City, from the prefect of Zhizhou, to the garrison and the road, and even the ordinary officials were fed with silver by the salt merchants.
The dignified officials of Qin have become the umbrella of salt merchants, and even their minions! Before I came, those salt merchants even dared to sell illicit salt in a blatant manner, but the salt government and the yamen turned a blind eye!
Not only that, but when I decided to deal with this situation ruthlessly, I thought it was a matter of extreme secrecy, but I didn't want to be heard by the eyes and ears of the all-pervasive salt merchants, and I felt sorry for my wife and children......
Lawlessness, lawlessness...... Ahem, ahem! ”
The more Lin Ruhai spoke, the more angry he became, the more excited he became, and he coughed violently.
This world is even more greedy, dark, cold, and cruel than he imagined!
Looking at the old tears in Lin Ruhai's eyes, Jia Huan's heart was sad, his eyes were slightly cold, but he still shook his head and sighed: "Uncle, you have been an official in Beijing for many years, and you have been promoted to the doctor of Lantai Temple, you should have seen a lot of the darkness and ugliness in this world. If you can endure it in the capital, why can't you bear it in Yangzhou?
It's not that the nephew doesn't have sharpness, how can the officialdom in this world really be able to clear the Haiyan River? Not to mention officialdom, even my Ningguo Mansion, although he did everything possible to do politics, in the end, it was still difficult to completely eliminate greed. Rot.
The old lady talked to me several times, and what she said was the truth that if the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if people are observed, there will be no fugitives.
I don't know if that's right, but you should understand it, uncle. ”
When Lin Ruhai heard this, the tears in his eyes disappeared in an instant, and his eyes were a little deep when he looked at Jia Huan.
He couldn't be sure if Jia Huan had seen through his intentions, but he ......
"Brother Huan'er, since you have received the holy order, you will definitely not be able to escape. Otherwise, it will inevitably leave a mustard in that person's heart, and ...... in the future."
Lin Ruhai said "heart-to-heart".
The corners of Jia Huan's mouth appeared a playful and cold curve, and he said with some emotion in his tone: "Uncle, it's all here, and I'm still thinking about that person." I ask you, what should Sister Lin do? Is the honor of a celebrity so important to you? ”
When Lin Ruhai heard this, he laughed miserably and said: "I never thought of being a famous minister, since ancient times, which famous minister will offend most of the top literati in the world in this land of culture?" Fall to a greedy and thin name who scrapes the ground......"
Jia Huan thought about it, the so-called celebrities, the so-called word of mouth, isn't it from these mouths and spread all over the world?
"In that case, then uncle, ...... you are"
Jia Huan asked puzzled.
Lin Ruhai's eyes were complicated and inexplicable, and he sighed: "I just hope that you can help me clean up this mess, so that that person can take care of my Lin clan for one or two ......."
When Jia Huan heard this, he was immediately displeased, and said, "I've been talking about this for a long time. In the end, it's still nothing wrong with my sister Lin? Uncle, you're a father. Really don't think about your daughter? ”
Lin Ruhai was even more displeased after hearing this, and looked at Jia Huan's eyes with some hostility. said: "My daughter, isn't it cheap to raise in the end, you bastard boy?" ”
The father-in-law rarely looks at his son-in-law......
Jia Huan froze when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "Uncle, it's not that the kid brags, in the future, except for my nephew and me, I am afraid that no one in this world can protect Sister Zhulin's life." With me, no matter who it is, she can't bully her. This. You can rest assured. Unless I die, no one can touch my family. Whoever dares to move, I will fight with whomever I want, and the king of heaven will not succeed. ”
When Lin Ruhai heard this, his eyes were a little incomprehensible to Jia Huan, but he finally sighed, nodded, and said in a somewhat uncertain tone: "Yu'er, she ...... Born weak. A famous doctor has long concluded that she is afraid that she will be ...... Moreover, in terms of heirs, I am afraid that it will be difficult to bear. Are you sure. Can you protect her? ”
When Jia Huan heard this, his face changed suddenly, but it was not because of disgust. It's because of distress.
He calmed his face and said, "I will definitely protect Sister Lin." I won't let her die young. You are incompetent as a father, and she still has something I can rely on. I sure. She won't be allowed to suffer. ”
Jia Huan looked at Lin Ruhai and said word by word.
During this period, Lin Ruhai stared at Jia Huan with a pair of eyes.
With his experience of being more than half a hundred years old and knowing countless people, he believes that Jia Huan's words are true......
Lin Ruhai nodded slowly, and then didn't say anything, but laboriously raised his hand, touched the side of the bed, and twisted it gently and forcefully on a floating flower carving, "Hula", and a one-foot-square dark grid appeared on the back of the wooden wall at the head of the bed.
Lin Ruhai laboriously took out a wooden box from the dark compartment, looked at Jia Huan's face condensed, and said in a low voice: "Here, is the accumulation of the four generations of the princes of my Lin family, and all the family business I have accumulated for the eunuch over the years, and it is also the dowry I saved for Yu'er." Brother Huan'er, in the future, if you treat me Yu'er badly, even if I am a ghost, I will not let you go. ”
When Jia Huan heard this, he smacked his mouth, and after taking the wooden box from Lin Ruhai's hand, he opened it and saw that what was printed in his eyes was a silver ticket of Dalongzhuang with a denomination of 10,000 taels.
Looking at this wooden box full of silver tickets, adding up, there should be two or three million taels to say the least.
Jia Huan smiled and said, "Uncle, you are not a Qing official!" I originally calculated that it would be good to have 1.8 million taels. When I took over Ning Guofu, there were only a few hundred thousand taels of silver in the silver treasury, which was far worse than yours. ”
Lin Ruhai glared at Jia Huan and said: "Ning Guofu's family business is mostly in the grange, since I was promoted to the doctor of Lantai Temple, I have sold all the land in Suzhou, naturally more than Ning Guofu's silver treasury." Boy, let me tell you, this is my dowry for Yu'er, don't spend it! ”
Hearing this, Jia Huan pouted and said, "Don't worry, in the future, this money is just to invite a famous doctor for Sister Lin and buy good ginseng for medicinal purposes." Two or three million taels is a lot, but it's not in my eyes. ”
When Lin Ruhai heard this, he was about to be furious, but then his anger was extinguished again.
Jia Huan's current net worth may not be so much, especially the cash silver cannot have so much, but in terms of total assets, it is only a lot more.
Thinking of this, Lin Ruhai sighed and said, "Yu'er's body and bones can only depend on the will of heaven, and you don't have to force it...... If you need it urgently, use it, and don't be bound by customs. As long as you can treat Yu'er well, you will use all these things, so what's the matter? ”
Jia Huan shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not about vulgarity...... In fact, the nephew is not short of silver. Uncle, don't you think this will work? In the future, when Sister Lin is well and healthy, my first son and I can be surnamed Lin. When the family is separated in the future, these belongings will be passed on to him, which can be regarded as a continuation of the incense for your uncle's lineage. ”
"Is that true?!"
……
"What's the matter? What kind of system is it to be so flustered? Go down in a while and get your own twenty boards! ”
The old man surnamed Jiang looked at the servant who hurriedly walked in with great displeasure and said in a deep voice.
The servant's face turned pale when he heard this, but he didn't dare to quibble, but just knelt down and said respectfully: "Master, there is an urgent message from the Yanzheng Yamen, saying that a group of fierce and vicious soldiers have come out of the yamen, and all those who are watching around the yamen have been beaten away with sticks. As long as you dare to talk back, you will dare to kill you.
The men sent by the Bingbei Road were not angry after being beaten, and as soon as they drew their knives, they were hit with arrows in their thighs and arms. The archers also said that if anyone dared to watch the Qin mission, they would shoot directly at the neck.
The people over there sent someone back to report the situation to the master, and asked him to ask, what should I do later? ”
When the old man surnamed Jiang heard this, his face flashed with anger, and a fierce light flashed in the old man's eyes, but then he regained his composure, as if nothing had happened, and after glancing at the middle-aged man next to him who was even more angry, he said lightly to the servants on the ground below: "Since everyone has said so, we are just businessmen and ordinary people, what else can we do?" Recruit all ......."
Before the old man could finish his last "bar", he was interrupted by a surging voice below.
"Jiang Ye, there is no such statement!"
"Yes, Jiang Ye, in the realm of Yangzhou, who can still step past Jiang Ye?"
"It's just a hairy boy, and you dare to be so presumptuous?"
"Fang Shoubei, tell me, what's wrong with this?"
Suddenly, one person suddenly handed the conversation to the middle-aged man next to the old man surnamed Jiang, who had not spoken.
Fang Garrison ......
He also has an identity, the chief minister of the Great Qin Military Machinery Pavilion, the captain of the three armies of the Great Qin, and the younger brother of Fang Nantian, who is wearing a bullfighting uniform, although he is the Marquis of Yiwu.
Yangzhou is guarded by the road, and Fang Dongcheng is in charge.
With such a deep background, at this moment, he can only sit on an equal footing with the old man surnamed Jiang......
After Fang Dongcheng heard this, he said lightly: "In this matter, this soldier is not easy to do. He was originally under the banner of inspecting Yangzhou Bingbei Road, and he was also a Qincha. Therefore, this matter still depends on the means of all of you here. ”
Fang Dongcheng's words made many bigwigs present slanderous.
Even the old man surnamed Jiang beside him glanced at him slightly, however, Fang Dongcheng was still unmoved.
Fang Dongcheng's words can be said to be completely different from his performance in the search for the sun.
In the past, he had a big shelf, but when he really met people who were "ignorant" and "unruly", he didn't need the people in the circle to speak, so he directly sent troops to clean up.
Over the years, how have there ever been inconvenient and difficult words?
Even when Lin Ruhai didn't understand the rules, he dared to speak up and ridicule to his face.
But now it's cowardly?
Could it be that the domineering boy who didn't even grow his hair really made him jealous?
Fang Dongcheng saw that everyone was looking at him strangely, and he was furious and embarrassed.
He was angry that these grandsons were so fucking uninteresting, Lao Tzu said everything so clearly, and looked at Lao Tzu one by one like a grandfather, what do you want to do?
Niang Xipi!
He was also angry with his brother, the dignified Grand Lieutenant of Qin, the hereditary Marquis of Yiwu, and even wrote a letter to him, telling him not to conflict with that hairy boy as a last resort.
What a wreck!!
When everyone saw that Fang Dongcheng was stunned, they couldn't help but feel more and more angry.
Jin Million may be to take revenge on the Zhen family, and also to clear away the "crime" of uncertain position, at this moment it is incumbent on him to stand up and say: "Jiang Ye, it is better for me to go to the Yanzheng Yamen at night, so that the hairy boy can understand that this Yangzhou City is not a place for him to play prestige!" ”
…… (To be continued.) )
PS: I'm guilty, the update is late, and there is only one chapter, although it is a big chapter of more than 4,000 words...... I originally wanted to ask for leave, but I saw that there were a lot of people in the group today, as well as those who rewarded and voted, so I really didn't have the face to ask for leave. I'm really sad today. There are fewer relatives on my father's side, there are only three brothers in their generation, and although there are many cousins, they are far away, and they only call to pay New Year's greetings. My mom's ...... There are nine sisters in her generation, nine people, really nine people!! That's not all, the four children of my eldest uncle's family have all started a family, and the six children of my second uncle's family have all become married...... That's fine, because there are too many children in our generation, so we don't have to pay New Year's money when we are young. At that time, the conditions at home were not good, and if I really wanted to send it, I would ...... five yuan per person However, now the next generation has also risen, which is my nephews and nieces...... There are so many people that I can't even recognize all my names, and even so, my monthly salary is still gone...... No, add the January remuneration. If you spend money, you can do it. But...... What about your girlfriend? Don't have a girlfriend yet? You can't! You don't like words...... Who's going to save me!!!!!!
