Honglou: This bastard is too persuasive.

Chapter 241 Jia Mu was cheated, Jia Qi came back, shocked (2.5)

The Jia family and the Wang family wanted to ask His Majesty the Emperor for help in getting the money back, but unfortunately His Majesty ignored them.

After repeatedly asking for an audience but being turned away, they understood that the Emperor did not want to deal with this matter.

The two of them had no choice but to turn their attention to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division.

As the commander of Dongcheng, Qiu Liang was the first to bear the brunt.

Even when he reported the matter to the commander-in-chief, he was directly handed the matter over to him.

Regardless of whether it was the yamen or other departments, after receiving the news, they all acted as if they didn't know everything and pushed everything to him.

This made Qiu Liang very anxious.

He mobilized all the forces he could mobilize and invited some professional crime solvers to come to help, but after three days of investigation, there was no clue at all.

During these three days, Jia Mu was even more powerful than the other two.

"Ms. Wang, you are Baoyu's biological mother. I, the mistress, have come up with 600,000 taels. You can't even come up with 400,000 taels, right?"

She thought that if she came forward, Baoyu's title would be easily obtained, but she didn't expect that she was wrong.

Mother Jia showed her majesty of Rong Ning's second house and even threatened others, but they didn't listen at all.

His treasure is a man of great fortune. As long as he is given a chance, he will definitely rise to the top.

Not only couldn't she accept it, but she didn't have the money now, so she just frowned and said.

He really couldn't bear to part with five hundred thousand taels of silver. After all, he wouldn't have much left after taking out these silvers.

"Mother, ancestors, why do I hear that you want me to be an official? I can tell you that as a noble, I will just have a name and don't have to worry about anything. I will accept it. But if you If you want me to be an official, then I am absolutely inappropriate.”

Mother Jia didn't expect Mrs. Wang to have this reaction, but after thinking about it, what Mrs. Wang said seemed right.

Jia Baoyu heard the conversation between the two just now. Seeing that her mother and the old lady were about to give up on her, how could she accept it.

Moreover, the large warehouse in the mansion was stolen, Mrs. Wang had no money, and Jia She's money was also stolen.

Jia Jingna also inherited a different title from Jia Qi.

Such a title cannot be given to others unless the person dies.

Therefore, after Jia Baoyu came in, he said quickly.

Just when the old lady was feeling disheartened, someone sent him a message.

In this case, why did he have to sacrifice so many people just to get him a title?

If he takes out another 500,000 taels, it may be difficult for the Jia family to survive.

"Mother, Rongguo Mansion has no money at all now. Where can we get 500,000 taels? If we really need one million taels to get that title, then we might as well give up. With that one million taels, we might as well I spent tens of thousands of taels to buy Baoyu an official position. I believe that with his good fortune, as long as he enters the officialdom, he will rise to the top and earn a title for himself. Why spend that money? "

There was no other way, the old lady could only go home and find another way. In order to let Baoyu inherit the title, she went to various relatives for help without touching the ground for three days.

"I have already asked someone. If I want Baoyu to get that title, the cost cannot be less. It will cost at least one million taels of silver. The most I can come up with is five hundred thousand taels. The remaining money will still be needed." To maintain the operation of the Jia family, I also need to leave some cross-river money for myself. "

When she went to the Zongren Mansion and said that Jia Qi wanted to give up her title, the Zongren Mansion told her directly.

"If you can get another five hundred thousand taels of silver, I can handle the matter of Baoyu. If you can't get this five hundred thousand taels of silver, then there's nothing I can do about it."

Even if she shows her identity as a super-destined wife, she can't suppress others.

"No one said that you should become an official. We are just studying a plan. Besides, I don't agree with this plan either."

"Your mother just takes it for granted. Although my Baoyu has great fortune, he can become the protagonist in one step. Why should he be a small official and slowly develop up?"

Even if all he needs to pay is only 50 taels, Mrs. Wang cannot accept it.

Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang were immediately startled. Jia Mu hurriedly walked up, hugged Jia Baoyu and said.

He wanted to ask these people for help, but no one was willing to help him.

But she didn't know that after not leaving the house for so many years, he no longer had any majesty among his relatives and old friends.

Mrs. Wang did not expect this outcome. She thought that the old lady would be able to solve the problem easily, but she did not expect that she would have to pay money in the end.

"I have decided on this matter. We must find a way to get this viscount. Isn't it just one million taels of silver? I am willing to give out an additional hundred thousand taels."

Just when the old lady was about to agree, Baoyu barged in in a hurry.

Jia Baoyu had already told Sister Lin and the others that he was going to become a noble. If he suddenly stopped becoming a noble, his face would have nowhere to put it.

Tell her that as long as she comes up with five hundred thousand taels of silver, the matter will be handled for her.

There is no precedent for this.

"Anyway, I'll put my words here. If you really force me to become an official, then I will run away from home."

But the people from the clan family said so.

But Mrs. Wang would never accept it if she was asked to pay one million taels of silver.

Jia Qi's title was obtained by dedicating auspiciousness, and he could only possess it by dedicating high-yielding grain seeds.

The old lady immediately brought up Jia Jing's story.

But today, when Mrs. Wang came to tell her that the family's expenses were almost insufficient, the old lady finally gritted her teeth and said.

So he was still hesitant at this time.

Mrs. Wang felt secretly resentful.

The old lady never forgets to hit herself. The impression in Baoyu's mind is that she always wants to hit her.

Now if he really dared to ask Baoyu to give up his title and become an official, he would probably resent him. This was not what Mrs. Wang wanted, so Mrs. Wang took advantage of the situation and said.

"I didn't ask him to give up his title. I just said it would cost him one million taels. It's too much. We can't come up with the money."

"Mother, you have 600,000 taels now, but I don't have the remaining 400,000 taels."

"If I have money, can I not take it out? If nothing happens to the Wang family, I can still go to the Wang family to borrow money and decide on Baoyu's title. But now something has happened to the Wang family, I don't even have a place to borrow money. ”

"See if you can think of another way to get some money. Otherwise, Baoyu will lose the title he got."

Mrs. Wang almost cried when she said this. He also wanted to get money for Baoyu, but he really had no money.

If you have money, it's impossible not to pay a penny.

However, Jia Mu looked at her deeply.

Then he said to Baoyu.

"Since Baoyu doesn't want to be an official, then don't become an official. I will definitely find a way to help you get this title."

"But you also heard what your mother and I said. It takes a lot of money to get this title. We still have to think of a way. You can go play first. It won't be long before good news comes. ”

Jia Baoyu breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had heard that one million taels of silver would be spent for this title, Jia Baoyu had no idea.

Isn't it just a matter of spending some money? Why did their Jia family take it out?
He believed that his mother and the old lady would definitely help him resolve the money matter.

However, Jia Baoyu was also a person who wanted to save face, so he still snorted before speaking.

"It's not that I want to be a noble, I just don't like being an official. I don't want to be an official who has to worry about so many things every day from dawn to dusk."

"If I didn't think of this noble as my mother and ancestor, I wouldn't be willing to accept your wish. Fortunately, as a noble, I have nothing to do. I can continue to do my own thing."

"But if it's really difficult, forget it. I'm fine now."

"Mrs. Ancestor, you guys are chatting while I go out first."

Jia Baoyu turned around and left, and Jia's mother watched Jia Baoyu leave before speaking to Mrs. Wang.

"I will find a way to deal with money. Have you not recovered the money lost in the house and the money lost by the boss?" Mother Jia stopped talking about these things, and Mrs. Wang also breathed a sigh of relief. Now let him get the money. , he really couldn’t take it out.

Jia Qin's wife does have money, but now she has to plan for his title. If she asks him for money, she is afraid something will happen.

So Mrs. Wang had planned to wait until she got the title and then find a way to get the money from that boy.

In this way, wouldn’t he have money in his hands again?
Now that Baoyu's title issue is solved by the old lady, he can relax.

As for the lost money, the old lady didn't ask, she wanted to say it.

"Mother, forget about the money. We have been investigating for such a long time and there are no clues at all. I just heard from those 50% of the soldiers and horses that on the night we lost the money, there were many people out of the city. Thousands of people were arrested, and it is not certain whether these people actually transported the money.”

"At the same time, whether it is the shop land of our Jia family or the Wang family, the deeds have been sold to major dental shops. Since you have sold the things to the major princes and nobles, we don't want to get them back. "

"The other party was obviously prepared. It is basically impossible to get the money back."

Jia Mu also sighed.

"Then just keep watching. I'm responsible for Baoyu's affairs."

After Mrs. Wang left, Jia Mu returned to her warehouse and took out two hundred thousand taels of silver notes.

Then he found the person who told him that he could successfully transfer the title with 500,000 taels of silver, and told him that he was willing to pay, but the 500,000 taels of silver needed to be paid in two installments. The first time could only be 200,000 taels. After it is completed, the remaining three hundred thousand taels will be given.

The man originally thought that the old lady would not agree, but he did not expect that the old lady actually came with the money. She did not hesitate to collect the two hundred thousand taels of silver and told the old lady to wait for the news. It would not take long. It can be done.

Jia Mu left with a little uneasiness, but he had verified this person in many ways and believed that there would be no problem. However, the old lady didn't know that just after she returned, that person had already found King Zhongshun, the current commander of Jin Yiwei. .

"Since the old lady is willing to take the money, let's make it happen. You can take the 200,000 taels yourself as a reward. Leave the matters in the capital to your subordinates. It's just during this time. "Every Jinyiwei yamen in the coastal areas has something going on, so you should take charge of the coastal areas."

The man happily turned around and left with 20,000 taels of silver notes.

King Zhongshun went to the palace with 180,000 taels of silver notes.

The emperor saw the banknotes brought up and handed over 80,000 taels of them to King Zhongshun.

"You keep thirty thousand taels of them, and leave the remaining fifty thousand taels in the Jinyi Guards."

"Let's give this old lady some hope first. I hope she will be angry when she finds out that she has been cheated."

King Zhongshun did not think so.

"Brother Emperor, you are worrying too much. The old lady is in a good mood. Even if she is cheated, nothing will happen to her."

"What I'm worried about right now is that boy Jia Qi. If he goes out to make elixirs and cultivate immortality, he really won't be ready to come back. After so many days, I can't even find his figure."

His Majesty the Emperor said indifferently.

"That kid has a strong level of martial arts. You know it yourself. How could you find him so easily? Don't worry about him. Since he said he would practice immortality and elixir for a month, he must wait until a month later before he can come back."

"You prepare everything for him in advance, and when he comes back, let him take over as the commander of Dongcheng."

King Zhongshun said with envy.

"That boy is really a lucky man. He needs an official position that no one else can ask for, but he needs you, the emperor, to arrange it for him personally, and you have to arrange it quietly. If others know this, , I don’t know how envious and jealous I am.”

"Don't worry. I'll make arrangements now. When the boy comes back in a month, he will take over as the commander of Dongcheng without any obstacles."

At this time, Jia Qi didn't know that he had been clearly arranged by His Majesty.

But he also understood the system prompts.

I'm afraid I won't be at peace after returning from alchemy for a month this time.

But isn't that what he needs?
Only by allowing more malice to come will you have a greater chance of breaking through to the fairyland.

So these days he has been working hard to refine elixirs and practice.

No matter what happened in the city, he didn't care.

In this way, a month passed in the blink of an eye.

A month later, his storage ring was filled with various elixirs.

Even for the expensive Realm-Breaking Pill, he refined it three times, making a total of hundreds of pills.

There are countless other kinds of elixirs.

One month of seclusion has improved his cultivation strength a lot. Although he cannot break through after reaching the peak of human immortality in the body refining realm, he has accumulated a lot of cultivation.

And the immortal cultivation level has directly reached the pinnacle of life.

Just like the physical training realm, after reaching this realm, every time you take pills, you can accumulate a lot of realm experience, but there is no way to break through.

In other words, no matter whether it is physical training or immortal cultivation, breakthroughs have stopped at this moment. If you want to break through, you need to use the luck of the dynasty.

Jia Qi has nothing to worry about.

After all, he is still young now, and with the breakthroughs in body refining and immortal cultivation, his lifespan is twice that of others, able to reach 2000 years old.

Nearing the year 2000, he believed that he could definitely dominate the world and ascend to the upper world within a certain period of time.

But he really wasn't in a hurry.

"I don't have to stay in the Red Mansion World for a day to accumulate the strength of the previous day. If I stay for a year, ten years or even a hundred thousand years, then the strength I have accumulated, after I break through, may be in the moment of ascension. , directly elevates me to the peak of the Immortal, or even the realm above the Immortal.”

"That way, even if I arrive in another world, I will be able to protect myself enough, right?"

"Even if the world above the Red Mansion World is very powerful, I can have more confidence and a higher starting point, right?"

So he is not in a hurry to change dynasties, but wants to make more accumulation.

And even though his physical training and immortal cultivation are now very powerful, and even his sword skills are already very powerful, he still has too few things that other practitioners in this world have mastered.

My alchemy ability depends entirely on the rewards from the system.

In fact, I am not a formal alchemist at all.

In addition to alchemy, this world also has formations, talismans, Gu techniques, spells, supernatural powers, etc.

"Now, since I have reached the peak of human immortality in my cultivation, the next thing to do is to improve as much as possible in these aspects."

"At the same time, we will recruit those famous people from the Red Mansion who are talented in cultivating immortals, and let them all cultivate with us to prepare for the unification of the world in the future."

"I don't know how far Daiyu and the others have reached in their cultivation? There is also the matter of welcoming the spring, has it been resolved?"

"Of course, I don't know what the consequences of my zero-yuan purchase before leaving will be."

After exiting the underground cave.

Jia Qi's family walked back while thinking about these messy questions.

Bring him here.

The previous system prompts that he will definitely be able to keep his title. Maybe the old lady and the others have been busy for a month, but in the end they got nothing, and they got the official title instead. She should be very uncomfortable.

There is also the lost money that cannot be recovered. I think the whole family will keep an eye on the old lady, which will also make it even more difficult for the old lady.

As for Daiyu and the others, their level should not be too high. The same problem of welcoming the Spring Festival may not be solved so quickly.

But he didn't expect that when he got home, he was suddenly stunned.

Because after entering the gate of the Viscount Mansion, he was greeted not only by Qin Keqing, but also by Daiyu and Sanchun who were supposed to live in Rongguo Mansion.

Before Jia Qi had time to ask why they were in his mansion, what they said next shocked his head.

He really didn't expect that so many big things would happen this month.
