For the sake of the money, Jia Lian had no choice but to endure it, even though he was unhappy.
After this incident, how could Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian still trust their own people in the household?
We had no choice but to follow Jia Huan's advice and use the most primitive method, spending a lot of effort to complete the registration, at least to ensure that there wouldn't be any major mistakes.
After all, the business has just begun, and there are many more days to come when we can make money.
When the maids and wives in the mansion delivered a batch of embroidery, Wang Xifeng's silk shop immediately settled the accounts after selling it, without any intention of delaying payment, as that would be very unethical.
This time, Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian were dragged into the mess, and even Aunt Zhao got caught up in the chaos.
Once everything was on track, Jia Huan left behind the people to oversee the accounts and the shop, and then focused his attention back on the clan school and himself.
In fact, he himself had not expected that the families of some students in the clan school would have such outstanding social and activity skills!
That's right, I'm talking about Jin Rong's mother!
This time, in order to open up the silk shop, Jia Huan spent a lot of money.
At this time, how could elementary school students like Jin Rong possibly earn this kind of money?
Jia Huan directly suggested that their parents come.
In fact, this move was quite successful!
Not only Jin Rong's mother, but also the parents of the other elementary school students from other families played a significant role.
Otherwise, how could rumors spread so rapidly in Dongcheng District?
However, Jin Rong's mother was the most outstanding among them.
Come to think of it, these elementary school students from other families are trying every means to come to the Jia family school to take advantage of the situation, enjoying free lunch and snacks, as well as writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstones.
They all look like complete destitute people!
In reality, it was quite remarkable that they, as relatives of a collateral branch of the Jia family in the capital, could even use various connections to get their own school-age children into the clan school.
Otherwise, the Jia family school would have had more than sixteen students in total.
Jin Rong's mother even persuaded Wang Xifeng through her relatives to help her get a favor.
Jia Huan never expected that Jin Rong's mother was a true social butterfly with a wide network of connections.
She actually had connections with some wealthy wives in Dongcheng, and even encouraged them to buy things from Wang Xifeng's dowry shop, which is quite remarkable.
The parents of other primary school students may lack social skills, but they know a lot of people from all walks of life.
With some private instigation, it was easy to spread many related rumors in Dongcheng.
These guys are all talented if you use them properly.
I have a slight cold, and it's getting late.
Chapter 28 Lin Daiyu Arrives (Please continue reading)
Even the emperor doesn't starve his soldiers, so Jia Huan certainly wouldn't do something like that—get something for nothing.
Many parents of primary school students in the clan school performed well, and Jia Huan gave them money.
This time, he took out nearly twenty taels of silver in one go, almost emptying his savings, all for the purpose of making a name for himself.
He won his gamble!
The first batch of profit sharing amounted to more than fifty taels of silver.
Fortunately, Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian did not play the trick of abandoning their benefactor after they had served their purpose, otherwise Jia Huan would have been in serious trouble.
With the money, he could enjoy a proper meal outside.
There was no other way; as he incorporated the breathing technique he had figured out into his daily life, his appetite increased at a visible rate.
In addition, he would practice his hidden weapon skills in a secluded spot in the backyard every morning.
Daily energy consumption is considerable, so naturally, a large amount of energy needs to be consumed to replenish it.
The lunch provided by the ethnic school is communal cooking, so how good can the taste and nutrition be?
He doesn't want his health to be affected by eating problems!
Although his height and weight did not increase, his strength, agility and speed improved significantly.
He's probably mastered the basics of throwing weapons; he can hit targets within five meters with small stones.
They have little real combat ability, and their ability to protect themselves is a joke, but if they suddenly launch an attack, they can still be quite intimidating.
This time, the elementary school students at the clan school were a great help, and he also had some thoughts on it.
Whether it will succeed or not, it's always good to give it a try.
Of course, things cannot be rushed, and the cooperation of Uncle Dairu, who is in charge of the clan school, is also needed.
Time passed slowly, and soon Jia Huan's sixth birthday came and went.
He was just a nobody. For his sixth birthday, only Aunt Zhao and two maids attended. They specially paid the head chef to make a bowl of longevity noodles with a poached egg on top.
Aunt Zhao had recently earned some hard-earned money, so she gritted her teeth and took out two taels of silver to prepare a small table of food as a way to celebrate Jia Huan's birthday.
As for her elder sister, Tan Chun, she only sent a hand-embroidered purse as a congratulatory gift in the evening through her head maid.
How could anyone else in the household possibly know Jia Huan's exact birthday?
Even with Cong-ge, whom he was close to, he didn't reveal it proactively, so there was no need to cause any trouble.
Not long after Jia Huan turned six, Lin Daiyu, under the protection of Jia Yucun, traveled by boat to the Rong Mansion in the capital.
It was Wang Xifeng who unintentionally mentioned it when they were discussing business.
Judging from Wang Xifeng's tone, she didn't care at all.
According to her, she was just a young girl staying at a relative's house, not worth paying too much attention to, and it was enough for her to be on par with Xiangyun.
Unless, Lin Daiyu's biological father, Lin Ruhai, is also in the capital!
What is meant by a powerful and wealthy family? It means that local officials who are not high-ranking officials are simply not worthy of their attention. That's how arrogant they are.
At this time, Lin Ruhai, the salt commissioner of Yangzhou, was clearly not highly regarded by Wang Xifeng.
Of course, she certainly has the right to be arrogant!
His uncle, Wang Ziteng, was then the military governor of the capital garrison!
As the leader of the four major families in Jinling, this was the most glorious time for Wang Ziteng.
Even as a former noblewoman, Grandmother Jia treated Prince Teng with great caution.
With such a powerful backer, Wang Xifeng dared to do some outrageous things!
For example, in her own dowry shop, she sold embroidery made by the maids and wives of the Rong family, still using the Rong family's name.
Such a thing was naturally very shameful in the eyes of Grandmother Jia.
But she's gotten used to it all, and she's getting old, so she can't handle any more stress.
Unless things get too out of hand, Grandmother Jia wouldn't easily interfere with Wang Xifeng's business.
During this period, numerous conflicts of interest were also involved, so how could Grandmother Jia easily intervene?
Jia Huan wasn't particularly interested in Wang Xifeng's smug boasting.
He didn't seem to care much about the famous scene of Lin Daiyu's first arrival at the Rong Mansion.
Whether the phoenix egg is broken or not is not really a concern for me.
If he had the ability to intervene, Jia Huan wouldn't mind giving Lin Daiyu a little reminder along the way, so as to change her awkward situation in the early days of the Rong Mansion.
Incidentally, it also changed the trajectory of Lin Daiyu's fate, and she should have gained a lot of good fortune.
Right now, even Jia Huan's right to pay his respects at Rongqing Hall has been ruthlessly stripped away by Grandmother Jia. What else is there to say?
It's better to make money honestly. At the same time, changing the situation of the maids and wives in the Rong Mansion through economic means will bring you a lot of good fortune.
Ten o'clock, a full ten o'clock!
Since the start of the partnership, Jia Huan's virtual fortune panel has increased by a full ten points, which shows how significant the impact this partnership has had on the Rong Mansion's inner circle.
Thinking about it, it's not hard to understand!
In the somewhat distorted environment of the Rong Mansion's backyard, money is the only true guarantee.
Aside from the high and mighty Grandmother Jia, even Master She and Master Zheng had to put some thought into matters of money.
Aside from the basic supplies allocated, everything else requires money!
In the past, ordinary maids and wives could only rely on their monthly allowance to make a living.
They also had to be exploited by their families, so the amount of money they actually received was very little.
This situation led to a severe class stratification among the servants of the Rong family. Unless they were exceptionally lucky, the lower-ranking maids and wives rarely had a chance to climb the social ladder.
Without money or opportunity, it's difficult to even meet the young masters and ladies of the mansion.
Unless, of course, one is exceptionally lucky enough to enter Rongqing Hall and catch the eye of Grandmother Jia.
Now, being able to earn money through one's own labor and skills naturally brings about a completely different situation.
Those skilled maids and wives didn't even need the stewards in the household to tell them what to do.
