The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 121 Negotiations Broke Down
For the two governments, any topic about Baoyu will basically become the focus of attention.

Baoyu has been in a coma for several days. Ma Daopo came to treat Baoyu today, which naturally attracted people's attention.So they rushed here from everywhere.

The purpose is not only to see how Baoyu's condition is, but also to show his face in front of Jia Mu and express his concern for Baoyu.

Ma Daopo was even more proud when she saw that there were more people watching.

"Since it's called the Eight Immortals Xingshen Decoction, it's made of eight things. According to my master, Second Master Bao's disease is haunted by ghosts. Ghosts are most afraid of filth, so they can fight poison with poison."

"These eight things are the rotten drownings of horses, cows, sheep, pigs, donkeys, mules, dogs, and cats mixed together, boiled together for twelve hours, and finally it is considered successful."

"What the hell is this rotten thing?"

Wang Xifeng asked.

"It's urine."

Ma Daopo answered happily.

ah?It turned out to be urine?Or are so many kinds mixed together?

Everyone here was surprised, and something even more surprising happened.

Baoyu, who was lying on the bed, jumped up from the bed with a cry.With a wow, he spit it out.

"Don't eat any more, my illness is cured."

When Jia Mu and others saw Baoyu getting up, they were overjoyed, and hurried over to ask for warmth.

"Look, my Eight Immortals Awakening God Tang Ling, it will take effect after a while."

Ma Daopo showed off again without losing the opportunity.

Although Baoyu was pretending to be sick, she had been listening carefully to what others were saying.

For the past few days, I have been so depressed that I have been pretending to be sick.Now that the girls are back, they are even more anxious.

Now that Ma Daopo said that the Eight Immortals Xingshen Soup was made of urine, I couldn't help but feel sick.I also heard that I would drink for another seven days, how could I bear it, how could I care about pretending again, so I got up immediately.

Originally, I wanted to scold the Ma Daopo, but seeing that everyone thought he was really healed, I didn't want to scold him any more, lest I reveal my secrets.

But in my heart, I still secretly calculated: Although it is made of rancid things, it does not have any smell, and drinking it is almost like tea.

Baoyu's feeling is indeed correct.This Eight Immortals Refreshing God Soup is not made of urine at all, and it is indeed tea.

Jia Min knew that Baoyu was pretending to be sick, so he checked with Ma Daopo and made this trick.Now it really works.

This set, although it is over today.However, its significance is long-term.

After that, according to what Ma Daopo said, Jia's mother made some Eight Immortals' refreshing soup for preparation. Later, whenever Baoyu wanted to throw jade to pretend to be stupid, Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang would drink the Eight Immortals' refreshing soup for him. Tang, so that Baoyu didn't dare to threaten others with falling jade unless it was a last resort.

The girls heard that Ma Daopo talked about the Eight Immortals Xingshen Soup, and at first they were associated with Tieguai Li, Lu Dongbin, etc., and heard that Ma Daopo's master was a master who traveled far and wide, so they thought that the Eight Immortals Xingshen Soup It's a tall thing.

I didn't expect that the Eight Immortals turned out to be cows and horses, or that spoiled thing. When I looked at Baoyu again, there was something meaningful in the eyes.

Baoyu naturally knew what the girls meant, so he was very embarrassed, so he simply hid in Mrs. Wang's arms and became Ma Baonan.

Jia Min followed Ning'er to Xiawazi, looked at the house that Ning'er rented, and felt satisfied, so she made a deed with the landlord.We agreed on a three-month lease, paid the rent, and went outside.

This Xiawazi, as the name suggests, is a low-lying land.A little farther away is Xunlong Mountain. This depression extends all the way to the foot of Xunlong Mountain.

Looking around, it has an area of ​​nearly a thousand acres.It's just that at the edge, there are seven or eight families scattered here and there.The depressions in the middle are almost covered by reeds.

"Ning'er, do you know who owns this depression?"

"Fourth Master, this is really a coincidence. I really knew about it. This is a piece of unowned land. Last year, when I followed Second Master Lian to collect house grass here, Second Master Lian and the people from the government I heard it while chatting."

"Go to the city and inquire about this sinkhole. If you are sure, see if there is an owner. Don't go directly to the government to inquire. Pay a few dollars to a dental office and ask them to inquire for you."

Ning'er has been with Jia Min for a long time, knowing that he must make some big moves again, she went into the city without asking any further questions.

When Jia Min returned to Rongguo Mansion, Niu Jizong, Liu Fang, Chen Ruiwen, and Ma Shangde were already waiting for him in the East Flower Hall.

They went to see Jia Mu first, and they were naturally sent to Jia Min by Jia Mu.

Only then did they know that Jia Min had returned to Jia's mansion.So I felt a little regretful, regretting that I didn't settle the matter with Jia's mansion earlier.Dealing with Jia Min is much more difficult now.

Even so, several people are still confident.from their perspective,.I still have cards to play.

The biggest hole card is the deadline of the emperor's decree.

Now there are only eleven days left.During these eleven days, no matter how capable Jia Min is, he still can't buy a new house, make enough carriages, find enough carriage owners, buy suitable horses, let alone build a new house , car park, and stables.

The only way out for Jia Min is to take all their belongings from them.

This is the most powerful weapon they can use to blackmail Jia Min.

"Hey, brothers, why are you so leisurely today, did you think of coming to my place?"

Jia Min entered the room and greeted them warmly.

Hey, this fourth Jia, it's already at this time, and he's still pretending to be a normal person.Is it any use if you pretend like this?

Now our hole cards are all clear, and no one can hide it from anyone.Everything is there, and the current situation is also there, no matter how powerful you are, so what?These are all head-to-head things, and they cannot be faked.

"Heh, brother Min, I thought that we should be the ones who should be free and you should be busy at this time, but unexpectedly, it turned upside down. It seems that we are busy people, and brother Min is as free as a wild crane."

Niu Jizong said with a smile.

"Brother Niu is doing big things, so naturally he has to be busy. The little brother has nothing to do all day, so he has no choice but to do nothing."

You still have nothing to do. At this time, you still dare to say that you have nothing to do.This fourth Jia, who really knows how to act, pretended not to be in a hurry even at this time.

"Brother Min, don't you want to talk to us?"

"Talk? What are you talking about? Oh, I see, Brother Niu wants to talk to me about Fengyue, right? Well, I'll be the host at noon and go to Meiyue Tower. However, Brother Niu has one thing to do, and what he does is not authentic. .”

"Oh? What Brother Min said, please explain clearly."

"Brother Niu clearly knows that the Rongguo Mansion has received the imperial decree to take over the bus and carriage business, but rushes to build a house on the boundary of the car yard. Mine? If that’s the case, brothers, thank you brothers.”

Oh my god, is this still the old fourth Jia?Did the emperor's imperial decree scare you silly?How could he think of such a naive thing?
"Hey, brother Ming, we brothers, friendship is friendship, business is business, since it is business, we are doing business. Of course, those houses will not be given away."

"Since that's the case, let's make a price, Brother Niu."

"Okay, Brother Ming is really a straightforward person. The price of buying everything, adding up all the things, is 7 taels of silver. I also know that it is impossible for your mansion to give out so much cash at once. But, looking at the For the sake of our brotherhood, I will give you a grace."

"Okay, then thank you, Brother Niu. Since it is a grace period, the total price will be 1 taels of silver. I don't want any other grace from you, so I will settle it for you at once."

"Brother Min, this is insincere. My brothers, I thought that we are all family friends, and I wanted to give you a discount. If the cash is not enough, you can use the house deed, land deed and shop to mortgage it. Yes. I didn’t expect Brother Min to bargain so hard, but it really made it difficult for us.”

Damn, you guys have already done the impromptu construction, what else is difficult for you to do?If you have nothing to do for a day, you can do business well, and if you insist on playing tricks with me, if I don't cheat you this time, I will travel in vain.

"Brother Niu is difficult to do, and brother can't make things difficult for him. Since you say I am not sincere, then I will show my sincerity. In this way, I will add another 5000 taels, and it will be okay, right?"

"Brother Min, are you treating us like children? To put it bluntly, 7 taels, not a cent less."

Niu Jizong's face turned cold.

"Brother Niu, are you going to eat me?"

Jia Min's face also turned cold.

"Brother Min, don't say it so harshly. Do you always want to make money in business?"

"Hey, Big Brother Niu, when it comes to business, how many dare to compare with me. Are you not afraid that I will start from scratch? To tell you the truth, without your things, I can still start this business."

"Brother Min's ability, brother naturally knows, but this time, even if you have great ability, it will not work. I don't believe the emperor's decree, you dare to resist the decree."

"Of course I don't dare to resist the decree. With so many rich people, why did they have to come to my house this time? Since Brother Niu knew it was a trap, why did he ask my family to jump into it?"

"No one else has that ability, only Brother Min can take on this errand."

Hmph, I want to see how you can fill up this big hole after you take over.

"Since that's the case, Big Brother Niu will complete the brothers, and the deal will be 5000 taels."

"7 million taels."

"Then there's nothing to talk about."

"Brother Min, don't blame my brother for this, let me leave."

"Brother Niu, let's go."

Niu Jizong and the others left.They will never come to Jia Min again, and wait for Jia Min to find them.

Jia Min would not look for them either, waiting for them to come to him.
