Uncle Hong Lou Rong

Chapter 151 Two Ways for Lai Sheng

Surname Lai?It came out of Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Rong didn't even need to think, just a name popped up in her mind - Lai Shangrong.

"Why do you ask me about this matter? Which bastard came up with the idea, a son who escaped from the Rongguo Mansion, is it possible that I have to discipline him?" Brother Rong was very angry, "I want to see and see Lang Zhong and Yuan Wai Lang, who are in charge of the Huangzhuang water conservancy, ask what this matter means."

"Brother Rong, don't be in a hurry." Duan Yu pulled Rong Rong who was furious, and said with a smile: "The stewards there are also afraid that if they deal with the Lai family, they will offend you, so they invited me over to ask you."

Jia Rong snorted and said, "You can deal with it as you like, and it's useless to intercede. To put it bluntly, this Lai's behavior is just obstructing public affairs. It would be easy to drag him into dozens of boards."

"Don't be in a hurry. I can't blame the officials of Yingtian Mansion in Shuili for this matter. I also heard about the background of the Lai family. His ancestor was an old servant of your Jia family's Rongguo Mansion, and his father and uncle belonged to your two mansions, Ningrong and Rong. Manager, with such a status, those officials have to look at you no matter what."

Duan Yu comforted him with a smile, and said: "The officials in Shenjing today don't know that you are a bastard and famous. Even the Thirteenth Lord almost met you, how dare they offend you because of such a thing. It's just The Lai family is really shameless, if it only costs a few dozen taels of silver, those who are on duty will be filial to Brother Rong. This offer is 500 taels per mu, and no one dares to accept it."

Brother Rong sneered and said: "That's not the case. The land in Shenjing is expensive, but it's only 30 taels per mu, but he called for 500 taels per mu. It's not that he is required to make an entire mu of land, but just to build a canal from it What a cowardly bastard, he doubled it more than twenty times. If those officials really want to be filial, they should go to our Ningguo Mansion, where can they find a son from Rongguo Mansion to be filial?"

Duan Yudao: "That's what you said. Those on duty didn't know your temperament, and they thought it was your Jia family who wanted to fish in troubled waters and get some money from it. So I can only invite me to come over and ask you quietly. After all, the water conservancy farm is no better than other places. .It is the business of the Prime Ministers, Mr. Thirteen and Mr. Chen, and ordinary people dare not reach out."

Jia Rong was taken aback for a moment, then tilted her head slightly to look at him. "Could it be that Yu Shangguan also thinks that someone is such a person?"

"Look at you, aren't you unfamiliar? Just now you called me Big Brother Yu, and now you're calling Shangguan." Duan Yu smiled and said, "What kind of temperament is Brother Rong? We don't know? Don't say it's 500 taels, even if it's 5000 taels, 5 taels, Brother Rong didn’t pay attention to it either. Some of those officials also reprimanded you, but it’s just that your Jia family was involved, and it’s up to you to make up your mind.”

If there were really 5 taels, I would still be tempted.Brother Rong rolled his eyes.

"Then act according to the regulations, and the Yamen will not bully the Lai family. If it can be exchanged at the market price, then it will be exchanged. If it cannot be exchanged at the market price, it will not cost an extra 500 taels of silver to divert the canal."

Duan Yu nodded in response, and said again: "Although the matter makes sense, Brother Rong had better find someone from the Lai family to teach him a lesson after returning home. No matter what they did in the Lai family, everyone will not remember it." Lai is only looking for your Jia family."

Brother Rong laughed: "There is no such reason."

"That's the reason. Lai's elders are slaves of your Jia family, and they are also the managers of the two houses. Although the matter of a certain trust family has nothing to do with Brother Rong, but other people will trust the family to dare to speak so loudly. The prestige of the Jia family? You may even suspect that you, Ningrong and Rongfu, ordered it."

Lai Shangrong dared to open his mouth like a lion because of the prestige of the Jia family.It would be too nonsense to say that Ning Rong and the two governments ordered it.

But the Lai family really had to find a chance to clean it up.

Lai Sheng is fine, many things in Ningguo Mansion are not under the control of Lai Sheng now, kicking him out of the mansion is only a matter of one sentence.It's just that Jia Rong can't control Rongguo Mansion.

Nanny Lai was the old master who served the Rongguo Mansion before, and she is equivalent to the mandarin ducks around Mother Jia now.Which junior is not polite when seeing a mandarin duck?Coupled with the relationship with Jia's mother, this Nanny Lai is also equivalent to half of the old master in the Rongguo Mansion.

Brother Rong was upset for a while thinking about these things.

"It's good to discipline them, otherwise these servants will turn upside down."

Duan Yu said again: "Don't be angry about these things anymore, it's only a matter of these two months. After we're done here, we'll go back to Master Thirteen."

What's so good about going back to Lord Thirteen.

Brother Rong curled his lips, he was in this Huangzhuang, and no one was looking after him except Duan Yu.Do whatever you want, just hide in a corner to catch up on sleep when you have nothing to do.

When I went to Zhongshun Prince's Mansion or Shuili Yingtian Mansion Yamen, there were many rules everywhere.He is not a well-behaved person, and he can't bear these rules and regulations.What a great thing it is to be a supervisor in Huangzhuang, point here, point there.

Therefore, interest in what Duan Yu said faded.

On the same day, after returning to the mansion, he went directly to the front hall to find Lai Sheng.

"Do you know what to call the manager for?"

Lai Sheng looked puzzled, how could he know the reason for Uncle Rong's dark face at the moment.After thinking about it, there seems to be nothing else going on in the mansion recently.

"But something about the village? Second Master Qiang has already selected the manpower. This time, only a few people will go over to find out the situation. We only need to wait for news from the Xue family and then we will set off together."

Uncle Rong hummed, without changing his expression, and asked again: "Is there any more?"

Lai Sheng returned: "Recently, several villages in Shenjing have planted seeds. With Jia Qin and Jia Fan supervising, there should be no more troubles like before. Jinling also sent people there, but the one in Heishan Village is too much. It's far away, and no one has been selected yet."

There was a slight smile on the corner of Rong's mouth, he looked at Lai Sheng with deep meaning, and said: "Since we can't choose any manpower, why don't you bother Chief Lai to take the man there personally. After finding out the current details of Heishan Village, go back Shenjing is here."

Heishan Village is far away in the cold area of ​​Beiliao, where is Lai Sheng willing to go.With a dry smile on his face, he said: "There are many things going on in the mansion every day, how can we go far to Beiliao?"

Brother Rong said indifferently: "The rent in Heishan Village has been decreasing year by year. It is also a matter of the mansion for the manager to inspect Heishan Village on my behalf. Even now, I have to send someone close to me to inspect the frontier. I can trust the manager. It was only then that I came up with this idea. If it is done well, it will be of great benefit to your Lai family."

Lai Sheng suddenly heard Uncle Rong mention the Lai family, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.This is the experience summed up by being a servant for decades. If the Lai family is fine, how could the master suddenly mention the Lai family.

Director Lai suddenly knelt down on the ground and kowtowed, and said, "It's our honor to trust you. If you think that this old servant can inspect Heishan Village for you, this old servant will die."

This old batch of goods is a good one.

Jia Rong said: "This Heishan Village is always a stone in my heart. It's remote and far away. Anyone who goes there is worried that they will be bribed by Wuzhuangtou. So, let's think of a way. That is to go there in batches, Both open and dark, all family rules deal with any falsification."

Manager Lai is suffering.

This is also called trust?
This is the greatest mistrust.

If I really want to go to Heishan Village, I am afraid that if I don't hurry up with Wuzhuangtou, the uncle will not give up.

Lai Sheng said: "Everyone listens to the master's orders."

Alas...Actually, among other things, both Lai Sheng and Lai Da are really talented.It's just Lai's thoughts...

Uncle Rong shook his head slightly.The old man's attitude is still very good, and he stopped playing charades with him, and said indifferently: "Recently, you have a lot of trouble in the Lai family."

Lai Sheng knew that it was time to talk about business, so he knelt on the ground and lowered his head, not daring to look up.

Uncle Rong sneered and said, "It's a coincidence. If I hadn't been working part-time in Shuili Yingtian Mansion, I wouldn't have heard such news. How dare you act recklessly, your Lai family's good brother is worse than our Jia family's." Be flamboyant."

When Lai Sheng heard that it was related to Shuili Yingtian Mansion, he couldn't help but tremble.This yamen is like no other, it belongs to the most powerful Prime Minister Zhongshun Wang at that time.Quickly asked: "But what trouble did that old servant's nephew cause?"

"It's not a disaster." Jia Rong sneered, "It's just relying on the prestige of the Jia family to blackmail the water conservancy camp. The money is not much, but it is only 500 taels of land, and one hundred mu is only 5 yuan. Two. That's not much!"

Lai Sheng finally understood why Uncle Rong kept his face dark, kowtowed again and again: "The old servant will go back to Lai's garden tonight, and give that boy a good reprimand."

Jia Rong said: "Reprimanding? Will it be useful? I heard that the Rongguo Mansion donated a fortune to your nephew in the early years, but now we can wait for official news?"

Lai Sheng said, "I haven't heard the news yet."

"I think so, if there is news, he should go to the post." Uncle Rong sneered, "You have only three generations of Lai's family to produce such a brother who has left his nationality, so he should be cultivated well."

Lai Sheng was also aggrieved, this is all about Lai everyone, why did he get himself involved.

At this time, he didn't dare to speak anymore.

Jia Rong said generously: "We have no other way, we can't let your Lai's family get involved in the mansion. Since you have worked hard in the mansion for many years, I will give you two ways: one, after you have finished your work for a while, you can take it with you." A few people go to Heishan Village; second, hand over what your couple earned in Ningguo Mansion these years, and we will help you get rid of your slave status and never owe each other. I don’t care about Rongguo Mansion, as for the bad reputation of the Jia family. Lai Shangrong has his own way to punish him."
