Chapter 73

What will happen to the Sun family in the end, whether Sun Ziqing will be taken into the house by the second brother, the little fat man will not care too much.

It's just that Jia Lian looked at the ragged beggar outside the car, and gradually understood his brother's anger when he came.

People say that salt merchants are extravagant, but he really didn't pay attention to it before. He was even a little envious of the inexhaustible wealth of salt merchants, and wished he had so much gold and silver in his family.

But after coming out of the luxurious Sun's family, compared with the countless old and weak beggars in Jiangdu City, the kindness in Jia Lian's heart made it difficult for him to calm down.

After coming to Yangzhou, his uncle Lin Ruhai once asked him what is the purpose of becoming an official.

money?that power?face?

As the heir of the Rongguo Mansion, he really doesn't lack for anything.

No, he is quite short of money, after all, the monthly allowance is not enough to support his spending time.

But does he really like to spend time and drink?
Jia Lian looked at his younger brother who was holding the golden ingot Shale, the flying fish suit and the Yanling knife placed by his leg, and remembered the childish words of the little fat man who wanted to kill all the country's thieves, and suddenly became a little confused.

Why do I, Jia Lian, want to be an official?

One of the two brothers was silly and the other was confused. On the way back from Jiangdu County to Yangzhou City, the carriage was even more dull.

It wasn't until he got off the carriage back in front of the Lin Mansion that Jia Lian's face regained the spring breeze of the past.

It was still Lin Ruhai's study. After Jia She and Lin Ruhai listened to Jia Lian's narration, the approval in their eyes was very obvious.

Sure enough, he still has to come out to practice and experience, Sun Kewang would not have thought that the young master in Beijing would be more difficult to deal with than the people in the officialdom and shopping malls.

"For the 50 taels of silver, keep [-] for you brothers to share, and send the rest to the capital."

Lin Ruhai took the booklets from Jia Lian, opened the box containing gold ingots and silver notes, took 5 taels and handed them to Jia Lian.

Before Jia Lian could move, the little fat man rushed over, drooling while holding the bank notes and the pile of gold ingots.

"Now I have money to spend..."

"Hey hey hey hey...Second brother, don't grab the back of my neck!"

The little fat man felt that he was flying, and the silver notes and gold ingots he just touched were getting farther and farther away from him.

Jia Lian took the little fat man by the back of his neck and slipped to his side, shaking his head with Lin Ruhai, and said, "Let's send them all to the capital, 5 taels of silver is not much, but it will also allow the court to save one more disaster victim and make a bunch of more sharp arrows. My nephew has enough money."

As soon as these words came out, let alone Lin Ruhai, even Jia She, the father, looked at his eldest son with strange eyes.

This is my species?
Besides Baoyu, is there anyone in Rongguo Mansion who doesn't love money?
"Second brother, are you stupid?"

Snapped!
Jia Cong's head buzzed, and Jia Lian, who took back his slap, bowed deeply to his father and uncle Lin Ruhai.

"My lord father and lord uncle please find an official position for me. The grade doesn't need to be high. I just want to be a leader for the people, or go to battle to kill the enemy!"

Lin Ruhai nodded, and after making eye contact with Jia Amnesty, he replied, "If you are going to be an official, you can start as a county official, or as a military officer in the Beiwa Guards, which one do you choose?"

Jia Lian didn't directly make a choice, but asked again: "Please ask my uncle to explain to my nephew, which one is more likely to achieve success, the county assistant officer or the Beiwawei military officer?"

Lin Ruhai asked back, "What is Lian'er so anxious about?"

"My nephew doesn't know either. My nephew just feels that I need to get a high position as soon as possible, so that I can get rid of people and things that have polluted my nephew's eyes."

Jia Lian spoke out what was in his heart truthfully, and felt that the depression in his heart dissipated a lot after he said these words.

Lin Ruhai looked at Jia She, wanting to ask Jia She's opinion, but Jia She said: "It's better for Lian'er to stay in the south of the Yangtze River for the time being, because there are too many restrictions in Beijing."

"Then go prepare the Japanese guards. The palace issued an order a few days ago to send the imperial envoy to Jiangnan to fight against the Japanese. This person is Wen Lian, my Minister of the Ministry of War in the same year. When the time comes, let Lian'er take my recommendation to go to the imperial envoy." Xingyuan, I think Brother Wen would be happy to have Wu Xun help in the fight against Japan."

Lin Ruhai's friends didn't know how many friends he had in the same year. Wen Lian went south to Pingwa as an imperial envoy, and he had written to Lin Ruhai for help long ago.

One is money and the other is people.

One must know that Great Xia has been in peace for a long time, and the old soldiers in the Beijing camp have long lost their blood. With the thousands of forbidden troops under his leadership, it is hard to say whether they can defeat the Japanese, but when they lose their temper, he is really uncertain as a civil servant.

It would be different if it had the help of the founding martial arts of the Rongguo Mansion.Xian Rongguo has been in charge of the Jingying for nearly 30 years. Those uncles in the Jingying, who dare not give face to the Rongguo Mansion?

After Jia Amnesty nodded, Jia Lian immediately thanked him and said, "My nephew is very grateful to Uncle, and I will do my best to help Wen Shuai put down the Japanese pirates as soon as possible, so as not to embarrass my uncle!"

……

Jia Lian's transformation did not happen overnight. At night, the two brothers went to sleep. The little fat man once asked his second brother why he didn't even want money.

At that time, Jia Lian said this: Gold and silver are good, and the knees of drunken beauties are also good, but he can't just live like this for the rest of his life.The men of Rongguo Mansion, even if they can't enjoy the Taimiao like their ancestors, they have to leave a good story, so that they can live up to the blood flowing in their bodies and be worthy of the salary they get back from the household department every year.

At that time, Jia Cong responded like this: Second brother, it's too fake, it's not like what you said!
After getting a slap on the head, Jia Lian spoke again.

"Actually, I don't know why I want to be an official or a high-ranking official, but I saw that the Sun family is extravagant by squeezing the people, but outside the wall there are beggars who can't beg for food, and are bullied by vicious dogs, so I don't want to worry too much about it." You demolished the Sun family..."

The Pingwo imperial envoy will arrive in the south of the Yangtze River at the beginning of winter, and there is still one month to go. Jia She is still helping Lin Ruhai deal with the Yangzhou matter, and starts to force-feed Jia Lian.

Instead, after bidding farewell to everyone, Jia Cong was escorted by Baiyu Linlang to Jinling Zhen's house to express condolences.

A group of people left Yangzhou City and went south by boat, followed the canal into the Yangtze River and headed west. In just one day and one night, they arrived in Yingtianfu on the second day of October, and stopped at Jinling Wharf after noon.

As soon as he got off the boat, a young man in brocade clothes greeted him on the pier.

"Brother Cong, why did you come here? I have been waiting for you for days!"

This person is none other than Xue Pan who met Xue Pan when he was in Huai'an Mansion.After arriving in Yangzhou, the Xue family just went to the Lin family to pay a visit to Lin Ruhai, and after sending some rare medicinal materials, they hurried back to Jinling to deal with family affairs.

After Mrs. Xue received Jia Lian's letter, she kept people guarding at the Jinling Wharf to show her kindness as a landlord.

On the other hand, Xue Pan slipped to the pier every now and then, thinking that after Jia Cong arrived, he could bring his new best friend to the market, and it would be best if he could show his arrogance in front of his cronies.

After all, the flying fish suit is too eye-catching, if I can take Jia Cong in the flying fish suit to the Qinhuai River, what kind of sour words do I need to write?Why don't those beauties take the initiative to throw themselves into their arms?
