Sword of the Red Chamber from Heaven

Chapter 31 Dialogue with Lin Ruhai, Buying and Selling (Please recommend! Please collect!)
As the night grew darker, insects chirped outside the window, Lin Ruhai was silent for a long time, and said, "Is what Brother Gong said true?"

Jia Jun nodded, "If Shi Bo doesn't believe it, you can go find a Xinglin master, and you will know what I said is true!"

Hearing this, Lin Ruhai fell silent again. What Jia Jun said was serious and did not seem to be lying. Besides, it was the first time they met, so there was no reason to lie to him.

He knew that the thing about his being poisoned was probably true, Lin Ruhai's heart was turbulent for a while, and the light in his eyes was shining endlessly.

Almost at the moment when he confirmed that he had been poisoned, several people flashed through Lin Ruhai's mind, including the six major salt merchants in Yangzhou, members of the Salt Gang, and the salt that he had been caught in jail for selling illegal salt in the past few years. Traffickers, they may all be involved in this matter.

"Why save me?"

After a while, Lin Ruhai's expression became calmer, as if he was relieved, and he said leisurely.

In this regard, Jia Gong did not hide it. When dealing with such a smart person, it would be unbeautiful to hide it, so it is better to be open and honest.

"I want to make a deal with Shi Bo!"

Lin Ruhai's eyes fluctuated slightly when he heard this. He heard too much of the word "buy and sell" from the position of Xunyan Yushi.

"Business?"

Jia Gong stepped forward, "I can save Uncle Shi's life, and I can also help Uncle Shi secretly wipe out the six major salt merchants in Yangzhou, and even let Uncle Shi return to Beijing to work!"

Lin Ruhai's face was startled, and he didn't really believe that Jia Gong could solve these problems. First of all, the six major salt merchants in Yangzhou. It was very difficult for Emperor Mingkang to move these people, let alone a powerless offshoot of the Jia family.

As for returning to Beijing, that would be even more impossible. He is an imperial official, and Emperor Mingkang has the final say on his promotion and transfer. No matter how powerful Jia Gong is, how can Emperor Mingkang be obedient?

But he didn't refuse either. Since it was a business, there would naturally be exchanges. He wanted to hear what this very interesting kid in front of him wanted?
"Since it's a business, it's natural that there will be exchanges. I'm a little curious about what you want?"

Jia Jun smiled softly, "It's easy to talk to smart people! Has Shi Bo thought about returning to Beijing one day??"

Lin Ruhai frowned, as if she didn't quite understand what Jia Gong meant.

Jia Jun didn't beat around the bush, and continued: "If one day, Shibo investigates the Yanzheng and finds tens of millions of taels of silver, will the emperor think of your hard work and transfer you back?"

Lin Ruhai was taken aback for a moment, then frowned, thought for a while, and replied uncertainly: "If I ask in the memorial, I should be transferred today!"

Hearing this answer, Jia Jun couldn't help being taken aback. What kind of tone was this? As Emperor Ming Kang's confidant, Lin Ruhai seemed not sure about Ming Kang Emperor's attitude.

In fact, after saying this, Lin Ruhai felt a little bit cold in his heart, and felt mixed. He knew very well that if he could really help Emperor Mingkang get tens of millions of taels of silver, Emperor Mingkang would probably not let him go back. Instead, let him stay here and continue to make money for him. Human nature is so, so there is nothing like it.

Jia Guan looked at Lin Ruhai, who was a little sluggish, and sneered from the bottom of his heart, saying that the emperor is a cold-blooded animal, and now it seems that it is really good.

After a moment of silence, Jia Jun continued, "What if I offend the entire Yangzhou officialdom again?"

When Lin Ruhai heard this, his head buzzed, and he was speechless for a while. He seemed to have guessed what Jia Jun meant.

"After returning to Beijing, shouldn't Shi Bo's Pin Yi also be promoted by one!!"

Lin Ruhai is a smart person, and a very smart person. He knows the meaning of the strings when he hears them. When Jia Guan said this, he could vaguely guess what the other party was going to say next.

I saw that Lin Ruhai was uncharacteristically, his face was cloudy and uncertain, and then he stood up angrily, "Jia Jun!! Although I, Lin Ruhai, deal with those merchants every day, I have read sage books since I was a child, learned to be loyal to the emperor and love the country, and practiced the way of a gentleman. , if you want to use my hand to bring cholera to court, that is absolutely impossible, even if I die from poisoning, I will definitely not do anything that would wrong the Holy One, the common people, or the world!"

What he said was heart-wrenching, and he was stunned when he heard Jia Yu. For a long time, Jia Yu has been thinking about the behavior and habits of people in later generations. He didn't realize it for a while. There is an insurmountable admiration.

In addition, Lin Ruhai was in a depressed mood before, as if he had knocked over the five-flavored bottle, and he also wanted to use his own words to strengthen his belief once again.

In ancient times, scholar-bureaucrats learned literary and martial arts and sold them to the emperor's family. This has been the same rule for thousands of years.Even Li Bai, a poetic fairy, has not escaped this vicious circle. It is a pity that Xuanzong didn't know the goods, so that the poetic fairy can only appear in poetry, which is hard to understand after all.

But soon, Jia Gong came back to his senses. Since Lin Ruhai had this thought, he continued to be positive, but adopted a roundabout policy-surround Wei and save Zhao. Let him go down?
Of course, if you don't take it hard, then I'm sorry, he is a really big villain, just like Xichun and Daiyu shouted every day.

He just looked at him innocently and said: "What is Shibo saying again? It's okay, what am I going to go to the cholera court? I really have nothing to do?"

Hearing Jia Jun's words, Lin Ruhai also reacted, and his face turned red. Originally, he wouldn't think about it, but Jia Jun's previous words were too explosive, and he directly counted it on Emperor Mingkang. No wonder he thought about it that way.

"Then what do you want to do??"

Jia Gong said seriously: "Nowadays the border wars are everywhere, it's the time when my generation of men join the army to kill the enemy. I think I still have the strength in me, and I want to learn from the Weihuo, defend the family and the country, but today I emphasize culture and restrain martial arts. I also had to find a backer in advance, but now I am a boy, I have no prominent family background, and I have no outstanding achievements. Those big figures in the court look down on me. I happened to pass by Yangzhou and encountered the robbery of officials by the Yan Gang. I heard that the matter involved Uncle Shi, so I came to wade into this muddy water!"

Jia Jun's words were seven parts true and three parts false. After Lin Ruhai heard it, he also felt that it was reasonable. He didn't doubt Jia Jun's intentions anymore, but he didn't want the kid in front of him to go to the battlefield to die. After all, he had sold himself before. a favor.

"Are you serious? On the battlefield, swords have no eyes. If you don't pay attention, you will be shrouded in horse leather and buried in a foreign land! If you give up this plan now, I can teach you to read in person, and I will definitely not teach you when the time comes. !!"

Jia Guan didn't make another answer, but said firmly: "Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the green hills, so why return them wrapped in horse leather!"
