Red Mansion Jia Enhou

Chapter 23 Brothers, Friends and Brothers (please read it!)
  If one takes the money, he can't get anything out of it, while the other can use it for anyone.

Zhang Pingzheng was sweating on his forehead and kneeling tremblingly.

Jia She raised his head, as if he had done nothing wrong.

Zhang Pingzheng felt that he was really being tricked to death by Jia She. He was doing big things in silence, and all he had to do was secretly produce the drawings.

What do you have to do to reveal yourself?

Now it's okay, the emperor knows it, and the melon seeds in his head are about to shift.

The emperor looked at Jia She.

"Why didn't I know you could draw drawings?"

Jia She glanced at the emperor proudly.

"Your Excellency, you don't know that there are many Xiaguan officials. It's just that you don't have a deep understanding of Xiaguan officials."

"As long as you are willing to get to know Xiaguan deeply, you will find that Xiaguan is a versatile and compound talent."

"Compound talents?"

The emperor muttered these five novel words.

It's a good word, but it's definitely used to describe you.

The emperor spoke in silence.

"Jia She, I didn't expect your face to be so thick!"

"Not only is it thick, it's also shameless."

King Zhongshun on the side echoed.

Both of them had a deep misunderstanding of Jia She.

Jia She felt aggrieved and began to complain in his heart.

Why is he not a compound talent? Qian Jiashe has a high appreciation of antique art. In addition, he also knows martial arts.

Although I haven’t practiced for a long time, the showmanship is still there.

Coupled with what he learned in modern times, he has three talents, and this is not called a compound talent.

Jia She was very dissatisfied in his heart.

The emperor's eyes fell on Jia She calmly, and he could see through Jia She with just one glance.

"Jia She, you are disobedient to me."

Jia She lowered his head and glanced at the emperor sideways.

If he obeys, how can he disobey? Those who disobey are either dead or on the way to death.

He still wants to live for two more years and enjoy the happy life of a great man.

Jia She remained silent under the emperor's gaze. King Zhongshun jumped up excitedly.

"Fourth brother is not convinced. You should take away his title."

Jia She's expression changed, this old boy wanted to kill him.

The emperor hit King Zhongshun hard on the head with the fan in his hand.

"What are you talking about? General She and I are colleagues, so what qualifications do we have to give him a title?"

King Zhongshun covered his head and stood aside with a gloomy look.

You really think you are an ordinary minister.

The emperor looked at Jia She.

"Can you really make drawings?"

Jia She nodded and saluted the emperor.

"Xiaguanyun, Xiaguan has always been very interested in this thing, but because there is no place to display it, it is not well known."

The emperor nodded and his expression became serious.

"Since you said you can, I will give you two days and you can draw the drawings of this health hall."

Jia She frowned, how could it be possible in two days.

This health hall covers a large area, and two days is only enough for him to draw a rough sketch.

If it is built according to that sketch, there will definitely be no problems when it is built, but don't think too carefully about functionality and aesthetics.

Jia She boldly extended five fingers to the emperor.

"Five days!"

"Your Majesty gives me five days, and I promise to come up with it to your Majesty's satisfaction."

"Are you sure five days?"

The emperor asked Jia She.

Jia She nodded solemnly.

"Five days is definitely enough!"

"it is good!"

"In this case, I will make a bet with you. If you don't draw it within five days, you will pay back the two hundred thousand taels owed to the court."

"And if this is drawn, I can extend the 200,000 taels from the court to you for ten or eight years." Jia She frowned tightly. Rongguo Mansion still owes the court money?
  How could he not know about this.

Jia She began to search for memories in his mind.

After seeing it, Jia She suddenly realized.

This money was borrowed by Jia Yuan.

At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, this sacred capital was in ruins.

Taizu took pity on these old men who were given houses and allowed them to borrow money from the court to repair their houses.

So in response to Taizu, the old Duke Rong borrowed two hundred thousand taels of silver.

It's just that the money can be borrowed for three generations. The imperial court was rich before and was not in a hurry to ask for it.

When it comes to the current emperor, Da Chu's problems gradually become apparent.

The finances of the imperial court began to become empty. The emperor had no choice but to focus on this and began to ask for money from various families.

However, three generations have passed since then. It is easy to borrow money but difficult to ask for money.

The luxurious life of three generations has made every family's finances begin to become tight.

As a result, the relationship between the founding family and the emperor was estranged.

Jia She analyzed the money carefully.

This money must be repaid, not only must it be repaid, but it must be repaid neatly.

Otherwise, because of this money, the emperor would definitely keep an eye on various minor problems in the Rongguo Mansion.

"Thank you for your kindness."

Jia She bowed deeply to the emperor, then straightened up.

"Repaying debts is a matter of course. Regardless of whether Xianguan can draw the money or not, Xianguan will pay it back as soon as possible."

"If you don't pay it back, your Majesty can just lead people to raid the Rongguo Mansion."

What Jia She said was quite righteous.

The emperor's body trembled and his eyes lit up.

This is a virtuous minister. He had misjudged Jia She before, but he didn't expect that Jia She's thoughts were so upright.

He is indeed a child raised by the old Duke Rong.

The emperor immediately decided.

"We've settled on this, Jia She."

"Can't go back on my word!"

Jia She looked at the emperor and became hesitant. Now the Rongguo Mansion has not sucked the blood of the Lin family and the Xue family, and its finances are not in good shape.

And what if I can't get it out? I will really be fired.

But you can also copy it. The family hasn't been divided yet and the money is all in the second bedroom. If you want to copy it, just copy the second bedroom.

Yes, copy the second room.

Jia She bit the bullet and interrupted the emperor.

"My lord, please wait for a moment. I have something else to say."

Surprise flashed in the emperor's eyes.

It’s all said and done, what else is there to say?

"you say!"

Jia She's eyes flashed.

"Sir, all the money in the Rongguo Mansion is in the second room. If the official fails to repay the money in time, it means that the second room is unwilling to pay."

"When the time comes, your Excellency will send people to search the house, and they will go to the second room to search."

"There is plenty of money in the second room. Once the money is copied out, you can just take it away. As for the first room."

Jia She smiled sheepishly.

"Dafang has no money, so the money he donated to the Yangshengtang was obtained by selling people as a low-ranking official."

"Selling people?"

The emperor was startled, what kind of operation is this, selling people to donate money, awesome!

The emperor gave Jia She a thumbs up in his heart. It must be you Jia She.

This operation is really cool.

Jia She smiled sheepishly again.

"Unfortunately, the family had some servants who were cheating on others, so the subordinates had no choice but to sell some."

Then you don't need to use it to supplement the family income. The emperor's mouth twitched and he mentally labeled Jia She as a prodigal.

At the same time, the emperor, who had nothing to say, silently uttered a few words.

"Your family is truly full of brothers and sisters."
