Chapter 604 T-shaped roll hits swollen face to pretend to be fat

   "Did Ruhai and Lian'er reply?" Jia Zheng looked at his brother with a cloudy expression.

   "Well, I have replied." Jia Amnesty also had a subtle expression, as if he was worried, but finally handed the letter to Jia Zheng.

  Jia Zheng couldn't see anything from his brother's expression. It didn't look like he was satisfied or happy, but he didn't seem to be angry or dissatisfied either.

   After receiving the letter, Jia Zheng glanced over it, and finally put it down, feeling a little indescribable.

My sister-in-law is still reliable. Knowing that the money may be borrowed but not repaid, he still generously promised to lend him 150,000 taels of silver, but he also said that he will wait a little while. He is dealing with the houses and shops in Suzhou and Yangzhou, and he will try to wait a month later. Send back the silver.

  I have always been very satisfied with my sister-in-law, Jia Zheng. In every respect, Lin Ruhai is worthy of the Jia family, and to be honest, the Jia family is not as busy as Lin Ruhai in other aspects.

  Of course, the Lin family must have more than this property, but it is the property of the Lin family after all. Lin Daiyu is not married yet, and Lin Ruhai is in poor health. She must also consider the follow-up marriage and dowry issues for Daiyu.

   "Ruhai is still good, 150,000 taels of silver..." With a dry cough, Jia Zheng guessed that his brother might not be satisfied, so he first explained for Lin Ruhai embarrassingly.

"Well, Ruhai is not bad. I have made so much money in the past few years when I visited the salt censor. I guess I have to leave some dowry for Miss Lin?" Jia She said with a dull expression, "However, second brother, Now the money is a bit far away. At first I thought the Lin family could lend us two to three hundred thousand taels of silver, but now it’s only half of it. The Zhen family tried every means to evade, so they only agreed to give us 50,000 taels, and we were still short of 100,000 taels. Two, do you know when you can return it to us?"

  This is the most realistic problem before us.

  Although Yuan Chun's letter didn't mention anything, everyone in the whole family knew that this garden must be built, and it couldn't be worse than the Wu and Zhou families.

This is related to the face of the imperial concubine and empress, and it is also the best performance of whether the Jia family can earn back face with the emperor. All debts and debts have to be built, and now time is very tight. When the time is up, you have to move right away.

"Brother, time is so tight, I'm afraid we have to hurry up. I'm afraid the public money in the mansion can only be moved for the time being. Ruhai's 150,000 taels will be delivered after he said he will send it back in a month." Come back, Zhen’s house is 50,000 taels, and the public is paying 50,000 taels, at least 150,000 taels.” Jia Zheng twisted his beard under his chin, his face was full of embarrassment, “Why don’t we just go to the King of Beijing to borrow some money?” son."

Jia She sneered, "How can the King of Beijing lend us so much? Fifty thousand taels is the sky, don't look at him wearing red and hanging colors all day long to pretend to be beautiful, that is also false. I heard that whoever wants to marry the younger sister of Shui Rong, the dowry It's all fifty thousand taels, what's the difference between that and selling someone?"

Jia Zheng also knew that it was not easy for the King of Beijing. This snake has a big hole, and the prince's house has to be greeted and sent. It is estimated that the amount of money for such favors in a year is not less than 20,000 taels. In such a situation, Jia The government also has a deep understanding.

"If King Beijing can borrow 50,000 taels, it's only 100,000 taels short. Where else can I borrow it?" Jia Zheng thought hard, and suddenly remembered a person, and raised his eyes, "Feng's family... "

"I'm afraid it's not going to happen. Lian'er said in the letter that Da Lang of the Feng family was ordered to set up Haitong Yinzhuang. He originally planned to invite us to invest in it. He said that King Zhongshun had invested 80,000 taels of shares. The Feng family also cleared out the old family. Collected enough 60,000 taels of silver to buy shares,..."

   Jia Amnesty's expression was a bit strange, and even his tone of voice was a bit strange, but Jia Zheng's mind was attracted by the topic, "Huh? Buying shares in Yinzhuang? Sixty thousand taels? Prince Zhongshun bought eighty thousand taels of shares?"

"Well, under such circumstances, how can the Feng family have any money to lend us?" Jia She's expression slowly returned to normal, but his tone became more feminine, "Second brother, can you go to the Xue family and the Wang family to borrow some money?" Yinzi? This big girl is famous, and she has a face, which is good for everyone,..."

   Jia Zheng's heart skipped a beat, his brother was planning to hit the Xue family.

  Jia Shi Wang Xue, the four great masters, in name, are all connected with each other, one prospers and the other loses, but that is the old calendar decades ago.

The historians are now Baolinghou and Zhongjinghou, both of whom are worthless, and their relationship with the Jia family is not very good. If it is not for the sake of the old lady, the Jia brothers would not want to deal with the historian at all, and the historian is now With a desolate appearance and a family of two princes, you can see how mean he is to his niece by looking at her clothes.

  Wang's family, is my brother-in-law so talkative? Even if the matter of the eldest girl is related to everyone, it is also beneficial to the Wang family, but how much you can borrow, 10,000 to 20,000 taels of silver is probably the best, and it depends on Wang Ziteng's mood.

  My elder brother also knew this, so the Wang family only mentioned it in passing, and it was clearly aimed at the Xue family.

   Orphans and widowed mothers, and living in Jia's house, if you ask me in a big way, why don't you offer one hundred and eighty thousand?

  You can even invest tens of thousands of taels of silver in a theater in the Daguanlou. This big girl, Concubine Feng, is going to come back to visit her relatives.

   Now that the Jia family is honored, the Xue family will naturally be honored as well.

  Jia Zheng can basically guess most of Jia Amnesty's thoughts. He has been a brother for decades, but he still doesn't understand his own brother's thoughts, and he is used to bullying and fearing evil.

"Brother, I can talk to my brother-in-law. My brother-in-law has always been concerned about the eldest girl's affairs, but on the Xue family's side, it is not easy for the orphans and widows to go from Jinling to the capital city now." Jia Zheng Frowning, a little embarrassed, "It's not good to spread this word."

"What's so bad about it? Xue Wenlong and other idiots dared to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver in the theater garden of Daguanlou. Could it be that the eldest girl Feng Guifei came back to visit her relatives and couldn't afford to be a Daguanlou? Or worried that our Jia family can't afford it?" How many taels of silver do they have?" Jia She said aggressively, "If you and your younger siblings are not comfortable talking, let me talk about it, these things have to be picked up, one hundred thousand taels of silver, let's make an IOU, five It will be clear within a year."

Hearing that his elder brother wanted one hundred thousand taels of silver, Jia Zheng couldn't help shaking his head: "Brother, don't do that. It would be embarrassing if you were rejected outright. One hundred thousand taels is probably unbearable for the Xue family now." It's very important, if it's two or three thousand taels, we can discuss it."

   "Two or thirty thousand taels? Send a beggar?" Jia Amnesty became more and more dissatisfied, "Then Xue Wenlong's monthly expenses are hundreds of taels, right? Why did Jia's family become cramped and shabby when they lent it to us?"

In this matter, Jia Zheng could not allow his elder brother to be so reckless. He persuaded: "Brother, how about this, talk to the Xue family and see if I can borrow 50,000 taels, and I will find a way to go to my brother-in-law's place." If it’s not enough, then find a way to move some out in the commute for emergency use, and talk about it later..."

"Second brother, I'm afraid the public money is not enough. If you want to do this, I'm afraid you have to get some things from the old lady's house..." Jia She's pissy eyes flashed, "Go and talk to Yuanyang." Said, over there mortgage I will handle it,..."

  Backing to his room, Jia She took out another letter from Jia Lian from the box, and read it again carefully.

In the letter, Jia Lian also mentioned that the Feng family might have no money to borrow, and that Lin Ruhai and Feng Ziying each lent him 5,000 taels of silver, making up 10,000 taels to buy shares in Haitong Yinzhuang. I am interested.

Lin Ruhai is a smart person, and he can still lend five thousand taels to Lian'er. The Feng family's boss is also so generous. Lian'er's friend is right, and he can be thought of for good things. Jia She is very satisfied. The impression of Feng Ziying was greatly changed immediately.

  When Mrs. Xing returned to the house, she saw the master holding the letter and smiling all over his face, and hurried forward, "Why is the master so happy?"

   "Lian'er sent a letter, um, the Lin family agreed to borrow 150,000 taels..." Jia Amnesty didn't care much.

The second child should figure out where the money for the garden repair comes from, but for the repair of the garden, I have to find a way to grasp it, at least to get a piece of it, everyone knows that it is easy to eat a mouthful of meat, of course not The second room was taken away at once.

"It's only 150,000 taels. Didn't it mean that the Lin family got at least 300,000 to 500,000 taels of silver in the past few years? How did they borrow 150,000 taels?" Mrs. Xing was also a little puzzled, "Then Lin Ruhai had other plans. ?”

"It's normal to have other plans. They still have an unmarried daughter." Jia Amnesty became impatient. ?”

   "What does the master mean...?" Mrs. Xing was taken aback. She was most afraid of her husband and listened to Jia's pardon for everything.

"We can't let the second room monopolize the repair of the garden. If you have nothing to do, go to the old lady's side to take a look. My younger brother and sister don't care much about it. Most of them will be handed over to Feng girl. Hundreds of thousands of taels of silver You can't let Feng girl eat all of your livelihood alone..." Jia She gnashed her teeth, "That's a wolf who can't support a family, so you must arrest this matter, and you can't let Feng Lazi gain power in this matter. "

"Yes, but I'm afraid I may not be able to handle this matter. It just so happens that my brother, who is useless, wants to make a living from Suzhou. If he can come to Beijing, he can be ordered to do many things. It's much more convenient." While observing Jia She's expression, seeing that the other person's complexion is okay, Xing also became bold, "And my niece is also said to be a shrewd person, far better than my brother, so she can come to help I give it a hand."

  Jia She nodded noncommittally: "This matter is going to start soon, you have to keep an eye on it. After finally waiting for such a business, you will definitely earn a lot of money."
