Chapter 377 The Dowry

Chapter 377 The Dowry
At this time, the two sat opposite each other, feeling relatively speechless. After a long silence, Jia Qing said: "Sister Lin, foster father, please rest assured, I will definitely take good care of her, and I will never let her be here. The Jia family suffered a little grievance."

Lin Ruhai nodded, he believed it very much.

Suddenly, Lin Ruhai remembered something, got up and walked to the big cabinet which was several feet high and several feet wide, took out a bunch of keys that he carried with him, opened the cabinet, and took out a box.

After carrying it back and putting it on the table in front of Jia Qing, Lin Ruhai found a key again and opened the box.

Looking at Lin Ruhai's solemn expression, Jia Qing also knew that it should contain more important things, but Jia Qing didn't stretch out his head to look, waiting to see what Lin Ruhai meant.

Lin Ruhai glanced at Jia Qing with a smile, and explained: "In it, most of them are the secret decrees passed to me by the emperor over the years, and there are also some important letters and the like."

Jia Qing wondered, why are you showing me these things?Immediately, Lin Ruhai took out a small box with a small lock on it.Moreover, this lock is actually made of gold, it is a small gold lock!

"This is foster father?"

Jia Qing asked intentionally.But he had already guessed that most of the things in it were bank notes!There were no safes at this time, and almost all rich people used such boxes to store bank notes, and it seemed that Lin Ruhai was no exception.

Sure enough, Lin Ruhai unlocked the small box and said, "These are all given to me by others over the years..."

Xu was afraid that Jia Qing would misunderstand, so Lin Ruhai continued to explain: "In Vanity Fair, you must abide by the rules, otherwise, you will be unable to make a single step! Therefore, these are really windfalls!

However, I didn't move at all.Not for peace of mind, but they really have no use here!

So, now I give them to you, you can use them to do things and play their due role.You don't have to worry about it, you should know that those who achieve great things don't care about small things, as long as they don't violate their conscience, they are doing the right thing. "

After speaking, open the box completely.

The Lin family has a lot of ancestral property and a small population. With a little management, they can make a surplus every year.Therefore, it is very understandable for Lin Ruhai to say that money is useless.It was Lin Ruhai who was worried that he would be pedantic and unacceptable, which made him feel funny. It seemed that Lin Ruhai regarded him as a good boy, a good boy.

He was never lenient when he took money, and this is the next trip to the south of the Yangtze River, and he already has a lot of money...

Now that Lin Ruhai, a rich adoptive father, wants to give him money, he has no burden in his heart, so he is not polite, stretches out his hand to look through it, and then realizes something is wrong.

Because, the more you flip, the bigger the denomination below, and, such a thick stack...

"Here, adoptive father, how much money is in it?" Jia Qing couldn't help asking.

Even he has never seen so many banknotes stacked together!
Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "It was originally 50 taels, plus the 5 taels you gave me not long ago, the total is 55 taels!"

Sure enough, this number has actually been reached!

Jia Qing closed the box silently, and said, "Father, I can't take this! Let's keep it as a dowry for Sister Lin!"

Jia Qing's concept of money is very good, even if Lin Ruhai is guarding the fat job, as long as he is not corrupt, it is impossible to really get in the money!The big salt merchant still has to work hard to earn money by doing business, but Lin Ruhai is here, but the money is clean!Let himself be swept away at once, although Jia Qing has a thick skin, he will not be thick in front of this matter.

In fact, even if it was tens of thousands of taels of silver, Jia Qing would put it in his arms without saying a word, because he knew that Lin Ruhai could take out tens of thousands of taels of silver at will, as a way of expressing his love.But it made Jia Qing feel a little unbearable to give up everything.

Lin Ruhai was very satisfied when he saw Jia Qing's way of not being moved by money.So he said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this, I have other arrangements for your sister's dowry. Although the Lin family has fallen, there is still some money to prepare a dowry for your sister!

These are all for you.

You are still young, have a bright future, and there are many places where money is needed!I am different. Now, how is this silver different from stones to me?Besides, where did your sister's dowry use so much money..."

Jia Qing said: "Where is it unnecessary? Sister Lin is such a person, how can the dowry be less? When Sister Lin leaves the cabinet, I will prepare a dowry of 100 million taels of silver for her!"

Hearing this, Lin Ruhai grinned and smiled.He doesn't care whether Jia Qing can really come up with so much money, he only cares that Jia Qing really really cares about Daiyu, with this point, it's good!

"Okay, since that's the case, I, as a father, can't pay less than your righteous brother, right? How about this, let's add up, I'll give you 55 taels first, and then you can add 45 taels yourself , a total of 100 million taels, is that good?"

Lin Ruhai said with a smile.

Uh, how could Jia Qing not see through such a simple trick by Lin Ruhai?But, forget it, as long as you regard the money as Lin Ruhai gave it to Daiyu, it will be fine!

Thinking about it this way, Jia Qing realized that he still didn't take Lin Ruhai's things as his own.Because, if Jia Jing suddenly gave him such a sum of money, he would take it without blinking...

"Hehe, I don't know what kind of mood Sister Lin will feel when she knows that my adoptive father and I are actually pooling up the dowry money for her!"

Jia Qing suddenly smiled, which means he agreed with Lin Ruhai's statement.

Lin Ruhai was also very happy. In fact, since he decided to accept Jia Qing as his adopted son, he had already divided his assets into two shares, one for Daiyu and one for Jia Qing.

Now since Jia Qing doesn't accept it, it's fine to count this as Daiyu's dowry.Big deal, when he gets married, give him the rest as gift money.

After the money matter was over, Jia Qing stayed in Lin Ruhai's room for a long time, listening to Lin Ruhai analyze the current situation in the court and give him advice on how to be an official.In the past, he didn't need to understand, but now he is an official in the court, these are compulsory homework!Lin Ruhai wanted to teach Jia Qing everything about himself, so he talked tirelessly with Jia Qing for nearly two hours, until Jia Qing saw that he was exhausted, and then took the initiative to say goodbye and leave.

After leaving Lin Ruhai's room, Jia Qing's complexion suddenly darkened.He is also a martial arts practitioner now, and he has some understanding of medical principles. Just now, taking advantage of the gap between helping Lin Ruhai, he checked Lin Ruhai's body... Lin Ruhai's body is far from being as good as it appears on the surface ah!
