The Red Mansion En Xiaohou

Chapter 124: If you cause trouble, you will be hung up and whipped (please subscribe!)

This reputation is not important to the imperial court, so how can the reputation of the Duke of Qi be as good as that of the imperial court.

Jia Shan glanced meaningfully at mother and son.

"Forgive me, Duke of Qi, but I cannot agree."

After hearing Jia Shan's words, Duke Qi and Mrs. Qi's faces turned dark.

Isn't the reputation of their Duke of Qi worth the 30 taels of silver?

Jia Shan smiled slightly, not worth it.

Everything must be compared. Compared with the reputation of the imperial court, the reputation of the Duke of Qi's mansion is nothing.

What's more, the imperial court has no plans to open a bank.

These banks took it over and used it for a second sale.

"What does Mr. Xiao Jia mean?"

Qi Guo's eyes were gloomy and he asked straight to the point.

Jia Lian pulled Jia Shan, and his eyes told Jia Shan not to be too aggressive, that was enough.

Don't stay until the end and make everyone become enemies, which is not good for Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Shan glanced at Jia Lian and knew what Jia Lian meant.

He also understands this truth, but he wants to push the price down further.

"In this way, the imperial court does not want banks north of the Huaihe River, but only those south of the Huaihe River. The Duke of Qi will pay an additional 3 taels of silver. It is almost the same, and it can just cover the price difference of the buying and selling risks."

"how?"

Jashan looked at the two people in front of her.

The two of them were silent and looked bad.

Mrs. Qi spoke.

"North of the Huaihe River, add 5 taels."

"No, Mrs. Qi, you know what is going on north of the Huaihe River. Besides, the imperial court will never engage in loss-making business, nor will anyone clean up the mess."

Jia Shan's voice was cold and hard, how could this old woman do this.

He allowed them to pay off their debts with assets, which was already an open policy.

Otherwise, if he only needs cash or things that are popular in the world, the Duke of Qi will lose his title even if he dies.

The atmosphere fell into silence.

Jashan broke the silence.

"Old Madam Qi, I will give you and the Duke of Qi one last chance. The bank south of the Huaihe River, plus 3 taels of silver. If it works, we can do it. If not, we will break up. Feng Qiwei will take care of the rest. If someone comes to copy it, then everything in the Duke of Qi's mansion will belong to the imperial court."

"As for you."

Jashan smiled and said nothing.

"Old Madam, please think about it yourself."

Mrs. Qi fell into silence. She had lived for almost a hundred years, and at the end of her life, she was threatened by a child.

Mrs. Qi couldn't help but laugh, and soon she regained her composure.

"Does Mr. Xiao Jia know about the Young Miao Law of Wang Anshi's New Deal in the Northern Song Dynasty?"

Mrs. Qi tried to ask Jia Shan.

Jia Shan's eyes moved. She learned about it in high school, mainly about borrowing money.

When the people were in dire straits, the imperial court organized loans.

Looking at Jia Shan's appearance, Mrs. Qi spoke again.

"The way the bank makes a living is by lending money. If the Duke of Qi is willing to take the lead in urging the court to implement the Green Miao Method and other methods of strengthening the country, your Majesty may give the Duke of Qi a guarantee."

"The method of young crops."

Jia Shan muttered these four words and began to make calculations in her mind.

The Young Crops Law was a new law created by Wang Anshi in the New Deal, with the purpose of enriching the country and strengthening the army.

But it also has quite a few shortcomings. One is that it is too rigid, and the other is restrictions, which are equivalent to modern loan thresholds. The poorer the people, the less they can borrow.

But if the reform can be implemented, it will also be of great benefit to Daqian.

Jia Shan looked at Mrs. Qi.

"I can't be the master."

Mrs. Qi smiled.

"You can't make the decision, but you can tell your majesty that the Duke of Qi's office only needs one person to protect you, and the Duke of Qi's office is willing to donate it to your Majesty for free for this Desheng Bank."

Jashan's eyes flashed with strange color.

"The old lady must first tell me what the guarantee is."

Mrs. Qi looked at Jia Shan with her wrinkled eyes. Jia Shan felt like she had fallen into the abyss and felt like she was being plotted against.

Mrs. Qi smiled and spoke.

"Without him, just save the lives of the descendants of Duke Qi."

The Duke of Qi knew why Mrs. Qi did this. In the end, it was because his heir was unsatisfactory and liked to make troubles.

Now that he is still alive, when he dies, the Duke of Qi's Mansion will probably decline even faster than the Rong Guo Mansion.

Coupled with the character of his eldest and second son, it was only a matter of time before the emperor dealt with him.

Qi Guogong, who understood what his mother had done, couldn't help but get wet in his eyes.

Jia Shan looked at Mrs. Qi.

"Old madam, I really can't make the decision on this matter. Please hand over this Desheng Bank to the court happily first, so as to leave a good impression on His Majesty."

"I will talk to Your Majesty about the rest. As for whether it will succeed or not, I can't say."

Jia Shan can understand the psychology of Mrs. Qi.

He had just had contact with Chen Zhenming, the uncle of Duke Qi's Mansion. He was a fool who was stupid at reading.

The words he just said could fool anyone with a small heart.

If such a person continues to have such a character in the future, he will cause big trouble sooner or later.

There was also a grandchild of the Chen family, he also came into contact with one.

It was Chen Siqi who he met when he first started school. He was arrogant and domineering, and loved to stir up trouble.

This seems to be a bit clever, but it will only be a matter of time before someone takes care of it in the future.

This may be the wisdom of Mrs. Qi in front of her.

Without saying a word, Mrs. Qi had someone fetch a box and put it on the table.

"This is the Chen family's last trump card. Whether it succeeds or fails, I don't blame you. It's just that the Chen family's fate has come to an end."

Jashan opened the box and inspected it.

After confirming that it was correct, Jia Shan tore off the page of the Duke of Qi from the book and tore the IOU into pieces in front of the people of the Duke of Qi.

The people in the Duke of Qi's mansion were relieved.

Although they did not pay back the money they owed the court, they still felt uneasy.

After all, it was the imperial court, so it would be easy to deal with their Duke of Qi's mansion.

Jia Shan and Jia Lian came out of the hall of the Duke of Qi's mansion and were taken outside by the servants of the Duke of Qi's mansion.

A child stood in the way of Jia Shan and Jia Lian.

Looking at the strange yet familiar face in front of her, Jia Shan tried to speak.

"Chen Siqi."

"Stop Jashan!"

Chen Siqi stood in front of Jia Shan's way.

Jia Shan looked at the former classmate in front of her and stopped in shame.

"Are you alright?"

Jia Shan asked Chen Siqi, and Chen Siqi stared at Jia Shan angrily.

"Did you bully my father?"

Jia Shan was startled.

"When did I bully your father? And who is your father in the Duke of Qi's mansion?"

"if not?"

Chen Siqi wanted to push Jia Shan forward, but the groom on the side blocked Jia Shan with quick eyes and hands.

"Confronting an official of the imperial court is a crime of having your home confiscated and exiled."

Chen Siqi stared at Jia Shan with red eyes.

Jia Shan rolled her eyes speechlessly. Your father was looking for trouble, so he hit the gun and had the nerve to come to him to accuse him.

Jia Shan didn't want to talk to Chen Siqi in front of her, so she took Jia Lian and left.

Chen Siqi refused to give in. Jia Shan's steps stopped and her eyes became solemn.

"Your father had previously blocked the court from handling the case, but I had already opened the door to him. I just let Feng Qiwei take him, and then let him go. I don't know what is good or what is evil."

"I think you know what kind of crime it is to obstruct the court from handling the case." Chen Siqi remained silent and continued to stand in front of Jia Shan.

"Then you shouldn't treat my father like that. Regardless of the relationship between the two families, you and I are also classmates after all. You don't care about the feelings of classmates, and you treat my father like this."

Hearing Chen Siqi's words, everyone with Jia Shan couldn't help laughing.

Where do you think this is? What are you talking about about worldliness? The court should be impartial and impartial in handling cases.

Apart from this, their Feng Qiwei is still here. Saying this in front of their Feng Qiwei is because they dislike the Duke of Qi's death not fast enough.

The people in front of me are becoming more and more understanding of what Mrs. Qi is doing.

With this mindless energy, even a mountain of gold wouldn't be able to withstand it.

Jia Shan led the people forward, but Chen Siqi blocked the way and refused to get out of the way.

Duke Guo of Qi hurried over and saw Chen Siqi's appearance. He immediately slapped Chen Siqi in the face.

Chen Siqi looked at her grandfather who always loved her the most in disbelief.

"Master, hit me."

"If you don't practice calligraphy in your own yard, what are you doing here?"

Duke Qi stared, his eyes full of anger.

Especially when he thought about the money bank that the Chen family had just lost, the fire in his heart seemed to be poured with oil, and it burned stronger and stronger.

"say!"

Duke Guo of Qi pulled Chen Siqi.

Chen Siqi was frightened, tears streaming down her eyes, and she stumbled and said, "I saw my father being bullied, and I came to make trouble."

After hearing Chen Siqi's words, Qi Guogong closed his eyes and took a deep breath, his eyes full of despair.

"It's no use to you. Your father is asking for trouble."

"You came to find a place for him. I think you are too idle, so I immediately apologized to Master Xiao Jia."

Duke Qi asked Chen Siqi to apologize to Jia Shan, and Jia Shan glanced at Chen Siqi.

He didn't have the energy to be as knowledgeable as a little kid, so Jia Shan saluted the old Duke of Qi.

"Your Majesty, I'm polite. I have something to do, so I'll leave first."

After the ceremony, Jia Shan took the people away.

Duke Guo of Qi was so angry when he saw Chen Siqi in front of him that he immediately asked someone to fetch a whip.

Lift Chen Siqi up.

Qi Guogong took a special small whip and started to whip.

"I've always been too spoiled to you, making you so lawless."

Duke Guo of Qi whipped Chen Siqi, and Chen Siqi screamed.

The grandfather who loved him the most in the past would actually whip himself.

Before Chen Siqi could react, another whip came over.

"Who gave you face!"

Chen Siqi had no time to react and was so slapped that she took a breath of air.

Seeing that he was silent, Qi Guogong whipped him again.

"Who gave you face!"

"Who gave you face!"

In turn, pay it forward. With just one sentence, Chen Siqi wanted to speak, but it really hurt too much.

I am his grandson, is it appropriate to be so cruel?

Mrs. Qi Guogong ran over with her servants.

Seeing Chen Siqi being hung on a tree and being whipped, she let out a scream.

"You old man, how dare you hit my grandson."

Duke Qi's wife immediately became jealous.

The eldest grandson, the youngest son, the beloved of old ladies.

Although Chen Siqi is the youngest in the family, she is also the favorite of the Duke of Qi's wife.

The wife of Duke Qi, who was almost seventy years old, rushed to grab Duke Qi's whip, but Duke Qi pushed it away.

"Woman's kindness, you know what this bastard has done."

"In front of Feng Qiwei in public, he went to find out about the imperial official, and he talked about relationships in such a blatant way."

"That's what he can talk about."

The Duke of Qi told Chen Siqi everything he had done. His wife was unmoved and held the Duke of Qi's arm firmly.

"Let's talk about it. Xiaowu is also eager to protect his father. Why do you punish him like this?"

"Plus he's only this year, he can handle it if you slap him like this."

"release!"

Duke Qi looked at his wife coldly.

"I'm not loose!"

Mrs. Qi Guogong held on to Qi Guogong's arm and refused to let go.

Duke Guo of Qi became completely angry.

"If you don't let go, I'll divorce you!"

He was truly blind when he was young and disobeyed his mother and married her.

Zhenzhen is an unclear person, and the next generation of her family has been led astray by her.

Mrs. Qi Guogong looked at Qi Guogong with red eyes.

"You want to divorce me. When I was young, I ignored my reputation and hung out with you. Now you want to divorce me."

The Duke of Qi felt aggrieved.

Looking at the appearance of Duke Qi's wife in front of him, Duke Qi was helpless.

He told her to shut up with a cold face.

How old are you, and you still speak so freely, and say this in front of so many people? This is not a very honorable thing. You have to have people expose it again and make you feel unhappy.

Qi Guogong signaled her not to say anything, but Qi Guogong's wife just wanted to say it.

Duke Qi sighed deeply, feeling helpless about this.

After a while, Mrs. Qi was helped out.

"Why are you making such a fuss? It's such a glorious thing. Only when everyone knows how shameless you are can you be happy."

After hearing Mrs. Qi's scolding, Mrs. Qi Guogong lowered her head with red eyes.

Mrs. Qi didn't want to let her go.

"Tiantian is so enchanting and her hair is not combed well. She is also an old seductress when she is old. How old are she? Who are you trying to seduce by wearing this rose red!"

Mrs. Qi spoke rudely, her eyes falling on Mrs. Qi Guogong's messy hair.

Mrs. Qi Guogong stepped back in fright, and quickly covered her hair with her hands.

"old lady!"

Mrs. Qi Guogong called Mrs. Qi, and Mrs. Qi gave her a sharp look.

His displeasure with her was expressed most vividly.

Mrs. Qi looked at Duke Qi.

"You want to divorce her, so do it now."

"Looking at all the children in the house being spoiled by her, it would be a disaster to keep her here. You can just divorce her now."

Mrs. Qi urged Duke Qi.

Duke Qi's face was full of embarrassment. He didn't really want to divorce, he just said it subconsciously when he was angry.

Mrs. Qi spat at him.

"Coward, I didn't want you to marry her back then."

"What I said then, no matter what I say now, it is as I said."

"Marry a virtuous wife, why don't you understand this?"

Mrs. Qi was so angry that she kept poking the ground with the crutch in her hand.

"Look at what this family has done to her, and this child is becoming more and more unruly. When you were so old, you were not as decent as him."

Duke Qi lowered his head after being scolded by Mrs. Qi.

"Just do it, sooner or later this house will let you do it!"

After Mrs. Qi left these words, she asked someone to help her back.

The face of Mrs. Qi Guogong on the side was full of dissatisfaction.

Why wasn't she allowed to live happily even though half of her body was already buried in the ground?

Watching the expression on the face of Qi Guogong's wife, Qi Guogong stepped back.
