Lin Daiyu looked at the remaining six women, feeling sour, they were all so beautiful.
Lin Ruhai hastily declined: "I can't do it, I can't do it." I was secretly happy, I didn't expect that I would have such a blessing when I was old.
Jia Rong smiled: "Let's go into the room and discuss how to write a memorial for today."
"Okay." Lin Ruhai walked into the house.
Ping'er took six women to the next room to talk about the rules of Jia's house.
Zijuan is making tea, while Lin Daiyu and Xiaocui are talking outside.
Jia Rong didn't understand the memorial: "I don't know if Grandpa has any suggestions?"
"According to my report, a salt merchant rebelled and killed local officials and soldiers. You and I have saved Yangzhou City and restored the stability of the people." , let’s take control of Yangzhou City secretly for the time being, and wait for the opportunity.”
Jia Rong nodded in agreement: "Since Yangzhou City has been defeated, it must not be handed over to others. Let it be controlled first and see what to do today. I will write to everyone in Beijing to recommend you as the magistrate of Yangzhou. If he disagrees, come here. The officials are under control, and if they don’t follow orders, they will be killed.”
Lin Ruhai declined: "I think Mr. Jia Xu is qualified for the post of magistrate, but I will still be the censor."
"He doesn't have a good reputation in the imperial examination, so you don't have to refuse." Jia Rong knew that he had concerns and was afraid that he would not be able to control his subordinates: "You can be the prefect with peace of mind. I will send Mr. Zuo to protect your safety. Jia Xu and Li Mu To assist you, they are all trustworthy people and can be used with confidence."
Lin Ruhai nodded solemnly: "In this case, I will not refuse any more, and I will take care of Yangzhou first. In addition, all the salt merchants have their homes ransacked, and they must be replaced by merchants immediately, otherwise there will be a salt shortage in the world, and there will be turmoil in the nine borders. Do you have any recommended candidates? ?”
"Let the Xue family participate, and you choose the others. Find a few confidantes and take the opportunity to collect information and terrain from various places. Maybe someday it will be useful." Jia Rong thought of Aunt Xue's hard work in supporting her family, and gave her a way of making money.
Lin Ruhai pondered for a moment while twisting his beard, then got up and said, "Don't worry, Brother Rong, I will definitely take care of this matter for you. I will write the memorial immediately, and then call the merchants."
"Okay, you go and handle it." Jia Rong sent him out.
When he returned to the house, he asked Xiao Cui to write a letter to Yin Tianzheng, instructing him to deal with Lin Ruhai's matter, and also notified Er Gouzi to catch the monk who killed his brother.
Xiaocui went out to deliver the letter, Master Rong was exhausted from dealing with government affairs, and took Lin Daiyu to the yard to breathe. At this time, the sky was getting dark, and many dark clouds covered the sky, and it seemed that there was a heavy rain coming.
One day I didn't have time to talk to my aunt seriously: "Let's go out of the yard for a walk."
Lin Daiyu smiled knowingly: "You can go for a walk, but don't go to remote places."
The two talked while walking out, Zijuan followed far behind.
"Auntie, you can't bear my suffering."
Lin Daiyu curled her lips and smiled: "Why are you suffering? There are six more beautiful women in the house. How can you have time to miss me?"
"It's all good intentions, I don't want to hurt their hearts. Don't you know my heart?" Jia Rong took her hand.
Lin Daiyu coquettishly said, "Understood. My father's body is still a little weak, you have to think of a way."
"Let's go to the rockery." Jia Rong saw a secluded place.
"You are too bad, I don't want to go." Lin Daiyu refused with a smile, wouldn't it be good to hold hands?
Just as Jia Rong was about to take action, Jia Xu walked over with two soldiers from a distance, and quickly let go of her aunt's hand: "I don't have time to play with you now, I guess there is something that needs to be decided by me."
Lin Daiyu was a little disappointed: "It's good to finish the time, you deal with things first, and I'll wait for you next to you."
Jia Rong nodded: "Wait a minute... okay?"
Lin Daiyu shyly said, "I don't want it." She walked towards Zicuckoo arrogantly.
Jia Xu led the soldiers to salute: "My lord, the city of Yangzhou looks prosperous, but in fact there are many poor people who usually rely on hard labor to make a living, but now the city's economy is depressed, and they are starving.
We have seized a large amount of grain from the salt merchants, and I want to pay them with grain to avoid rebellion.Please announce it. "
The divine dynasty has suffered from natural and man-made disasters for many years, and the price of food has been rising. Now it is an important military material, and Jia Xu dare not make the decision alone.
"Yes, poor people don't have much food in stock, so we need to plan as soon as possible. In addition, the autumn harvest is coming soon, but the weather looks like heavy rain. I'm afraid it will be another disaster year. We must be prepared." Jia Rong agreed with his proposal.
"The house was copied from the shop, land, property and house. The amount is huge. After the sale, where will the master arrange to send it?" Jia Xu asked for instructions.
"Don't sell the land, you take the title deed, rent it out to the poor, cut off [-]% of the grain, and give them a chance to survive.
Part of the other income was given to the Lin family as compensation, part of the magistrate's office and the army, and the rest was given to Zuo Qianhu as a spare.In addition, silver was used to reward meritorious soldiers. After the military control was lifted, a celebration banquet was held on a certain day. "Jia Rong felt that he had no leisure time.
"Yes, my lord." Jia Xu obeyed and left.
Turning back to meet Aunt Lin, she was already tired of standing, so they turned back to the yard.
"Is there anything you can do about my father?" Lin Daiyu asked.
"My aunt begs, if there is no other way, I have to find a way. I will find time to give him medicine later." Jia Rong was going to give him the Xiantian Yiqi pill.
Lin Daiyu was delighted and silently glanced at him.
There were a few rain stars on the road.
Xiaocui came back early and saw the master: "What are you eating tonight?"
"Grill a few skewers of meat, eight dishes, and rice." Xiaocui just wanted to have dinner for five people, so there was no need to waste it.
"Master doesn't care about your six maids?" Xiaocui asked him with a smile.
"Isn't there a standard for Lin's kitchen? Follow it." Jia Rong smiled.
After entering the inner and outer rooms of the house, Ping'er took the maids to greet him.
"Excuse me, Ping'er come in and have a meeting." Jia Rong took the three girls into the inner room.
"Zijuan, sit down too, we'll have dinner together later," Jia Rong told her.
Zijuan looked at the girl.
"Sit down, there are no outsiders." Lin Daiyu and Brother Rong had suffered twice, and they already regarded themselves as his people, especially yesterday, it was so embarrassing.
Unable to move himself, he fought with the enemy without retreating a step.
The bloody scene is so scary, he is insisting on protecting himself.
But the skirt is wet.
Zijuan sat beside the girl somewhat restrained.
The new maid served tea for several people. Master Rong said a lot and was thirsty. After taking a sip, he felt that the craftsmanship was similar to Xiren's.
After a while, Ping'er and Zijuan went to Xiaocui's place to serve food.
Lin Daiyu noticed Brother Rong's burning gaze: "Is this going to be a mess?"
"Let me try the rouge." Jia Rong said with a proud smile.
"No, what should they do when they come in?" Lin Daiyu objected.
Master Rong was entangled.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Lin Daiyu protested to no avail.
When Zijuan came back from serving the dishes, she found water stains on the corner of the girl's mouth, so she took out a handkerchief and wiped it off for her.
Lin Daiyu blushed, and gave the bad guy a sneaky look.
