Jia Yujing of Red Mansion

Chapter 191 Recruiting Two Heroes
Jia Qiong came out of Li Shirui's place and returned to her dormitory. As soon as she sat down, a clerk in his twenties followed him in.

He cupped his hands and said, "Young Feng Wenjun, please see Mr. Jia.

I am sent by the courtyard to listen to your orders. I usually wait in the nursery next to you. If you need anything, just call me. "

Jia Qiong nodded and said: "Okay, I understand.

You go and call me Tao Bianxiu, Han Bianxiu, Song Bianxiu, Pan Jifeng, Gongsun Yue, Jiang Wuji, and Zhou Xi. "

"It's an adult."

After a while, Tao Dachun and others came over one after another, and seeing everyone gathered, Jia Qiong said: "The emperor has already agreed to the big plan I mentioned two days ago.

In a few days, our Hanlin Academy will establish a new department called the Mutual Aid Department to deal with this disaster.

I will take the lead in establishing the Mutual Aid Department, and there will be many opportunities for practical contact. Which of you would like to come? "

Everyone is naturally willing to join the department established by Jia Qiong.

Zhou Xi said excitedly: "I want to go, just because I want to do something practical."

Jiang Wuji followed up and said: "Yu Jing, you are the one who took the lead. It must be a big deal. Count me in."

Tao Dachun smiled and said: "We must all go to the department established by Yu Jingqi. What does our Mutual Aid Department do?"

Jia Qiong said: “We are mainly responsible for organizing production and self-rescue for disaster victims, providing work-for-relief, and implementing old city reconstruction projects.

There are many things and I can’t explain them clearly at the moment. I will explain them to you in detail later.

Since you all want to come with me, please hand over the work at hand.

I will arrange some preliminary research work for you, so you can do it first.

I will petition for the establishment of the Mutual Aid Department at the Grand Council the day after tomorrow, and we will move to a new place then. "

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Jia Qiong arranged: "Senior Brother Tao, you and Shu Heng and Zhong Fang will be in a group.

Investigate where there is limestone, high-quality clay, and high-quality fine sand near the capital.

Especially for limestone, we need to look for it in more places, as our demand will be huge.

After you find it, make a detailed list of locations for me, preferably marked on a map. "

The three of them nodded and said, "Understood, leave it to us."

"Senior Brother Pan, you and Senior Brother Gongsun work together to investigate the prices of all building materials and flowers and trees on the market and keep records."

"Yes."

"Chang Lin and Brother Dao Yi teamed up to find out where all the mines near the capital dump their waste.

Mark it on the map and find out the road conditions. "

"Okay, leave it to us."

After allocating everyone's work, it was already noon.

Jia Qiong left the Hanlin Academy and went straight to Taibai Tower.

In the morning, he posted a message and invited Xue Pan, Feng Ziying, and Liu Xianglian to come here for a gathering.

When Jia Qiong arrived, the three of them had already arrived and were sitting together chatting animatedly.

As soon as he saw Jia Qiong, Xue Pan shouted loudly: "Brother Qiong, I heard that you have been made a viscount, how great it is!"

Jia Qiong cupped his hands and said, "Brother Xue, Brother Feng, Brother Liu, I'm sorry I'm late."

Feng Ziying smiled and said: "We have just arrived, Yu Jing, congratulations."

Liu Xianglian also stood up and clasped her fists and said, "Congratulations to Brother Yujing."

Jia Qiong said with a smile: "The emperor's kindness is so great. I haven't done anything big, but I feel a little unworthy of it."

Feng Ziying said: "Yu Jing is too humble. With your merits, the title of Viscount is more than enough."

After several people sat down, Liu Xianglian asked, "Did Yu Jing come to us for something?"

Jia Qiong nodded and said: "Exactly, locust plagues are now breaking out in many places in Henan, Shandong, and Jizhou, affecting a wide range of areas and causing serious disasters.

Many people will definitely suffer this year, and the court will not be able to come up with so much disaster relief funds.

Therefore, I made a suggestion to the emperor to set up a business company to help the people and generate income.The company requires a lot of capital. I can only raise part of it myself, and I need to find someone to buy shares in the rest.

I came to you just to discuss investing and buying shares.

I can guarantee that this business can make money, and it can make a lot of money. This is a good opportunity. Do you want to join? "

After hearing this, Xue Pan patted his chest and said, "No problem. Brother Qiong, just tell me how much money you need. I will provide it."

Hearing this, Jia Qiong smiled and said: "Brother Xue, I am still short of 350 million taels of silver. Can you pay for it all?"

Xue Pan was shocked when he heard it: "350 million taels? This is too much, I can't afford it."

Feng Ziying and Liu Xianglian were also shocked by this number. Feng Ziying asked: "Yu Jing, what business do you want to do? You need so much funds."

Jia Qiong said: "Real estate business, this business can definitely make a lot of money."

Liu Xianglian said: "Yu Jing, I only have 2 taels, if it's not too little, you can take it.

Since it's for disaster relief, it doesn't matter whether you make money or not. "

Jia Qiong cupped his hands and said, "Erlang Renyi."

Feng Ziying thought for a while and said, "I have to discuss this with my father, but I can guarantee that I can get at least 5 taels."

Jia Qiong nodded and said, "Okay, Brother Xue, how much can you take?"

Xue Pan scratched his head and said: "My sister is in charge of our family's accounts, I have to ask to find out.

But don’t worry, Brother Qiong, I’ll give you all the money I can move. "

Jia Qiong smiled and said: "Okay, as much as you want, leave your money to me and share it together.

After Jia Qiong finished speaking, she turned to look at Liu Xianglian and said, "Erlang, there is something I hope you can consider."

Liu Xianglian asked curiously: "What's the matter?"

"Erlang, you are skilled in martial arts, chivalrous and courageous. You should be serving the country and making contributions. How can you waste your years in vain?

I know you can't stand the intrigues in the officialdom. Although I, Jia Qiong, am in a humble position, I still have the heart to help the country.

This time the emperor ordered me to prepare for the establishment of the Mutual Aid Division. If Erlang doesn't mind it, you can follow me first and do something for the people. You will live up to your ability. "

Liu Xianglian only pondered for a moment after hearing this, then stood up and raised her hands and said: "In the play, although the royal cat Zhan Zhao does not like officialdom, he eventually serves under Bao Gong.

Yujing, you have the talent to help the world, I appreciate you. From now on, I will be your royal cat and do whatever you want. "

Jia Qiong was overjoyed. He stood up and bowed deeply and said, "Erlang Gaoyi, please accept Jia Qiong's bow."

Feng Ziying said with a smile: "Erlang's abilities are finally put to use. It's really gratifying."

Jia Qiong nodded and said: "Erlang, since you are good at martial arts, I will first find a position for you in Jinyiwei.

You don't have to go to the Yamen as an errand, just stay with me and listen. "

Liu Xianglian nodded and said, "No problem, I will follow Yu Jing's arrangements."

When Xue Pan heard that Jia Qiong arranged for Liu Xianglian to join Jinyiwei, he also came over and said, "Brother Qiong, can you find me a job in Jinyiwei as well."

"Brother Xue, Jin Yiwei's admission test requires martial arts skills. If you want to join the army, I can arrange other errands for you."

Xue Pan shook his head and said: "Forget it then, I just want to see the majesty of the Jin Yiwei.

Ziying is good at martial arts, why don't you ask him. "

Jia Qiong secretly thought that this stupid overlord can be shrewd sometimes, and said with a smile: "That's exactly what I meant."

He turned to Feng Ziying and asked sincerely: "Ziying is very talented, would you like to come to the Mutual Aid Department to help me?"

Feng Ziying smiled and said: "I thought Yu Jing was the only one who only liked Liu Erlang."

Jia Qiong smiled and said: "Erlang is alone now, so he is naturally different from you.

If Brother Ziying wants to join the army or become an official, Feng Shibo may have already made arrangements for you. "

Feng Ziying said solemnly: "How can a man take refuge in the shadow of his father and ancestors?

If she doesn't give up, Feng Ziying is willing to follow brother Yujing and make great achievements. "
