Chapter 443: Interests
At this moment, in the mansion of the fourth master of the Qiao family's mansion, in the deep rain curtain, there is a low light singing leisurely sounding, Qiao Hongru is listening to the rain pavilion, lying in the Taishi chair while enjoying the rain while humming a small song, his face is ruddy, and he has been in a good mood recently.

"Sir." The little guy paced softly to the bottom of the porch, interrupting the comfort of this moment, and whispered: "Second Master Qiao is here to visit." β
Qiao Hongru sat up straight, and the Taishi chair was also instantly paused, pursed his lips, and put the teacup in his hand on the table.
"Let him come up."
After a while, the sound of footsteps on the stairs echoed, and Qiao Xianting had spots of rain-soaked dampness on his body, stepped into the pavilion, and sat down opposite Qiao Hongru.
Qiao Hongru's face became more and more suspicious as he sat calmly.
Hearing that the door of the Rain Pavilion was slowly closed from the outside, Qiao Xianting's face remained unchanged, he shook his robe, looked at his fourth brother with his eyes, and was silent.
"Last year's flood problem in the south has begun to be dealt with this year, I heard that someone under your command wants to go over?"
Qiao Xianting's voice suddenly sounded in a low voice, which made Qiao Hongru's eyes immediately look at him when he heard this, his body was straighter, and he didn't speak for a long time.
"Fourth, over the years, it seems that the foundation in the court has been a lot more stable."
Qiao Hongru was silent for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "It's also for this family, for our Qiao family." β
"It's fine." Qiao Xianting nodded and said slowly: "Fortunately, you still remember that it was for the Qiao family." β
"Second brother." Qiao Hongru raised his head violently, his voice was low, with a little uneasiness.
"Fourth, don't be so nervous, I'm your brother, I will never make a reluctant request to you, why are you so embarrassed about what you say."
Qiao Hongru frowned, and was silent for a long time before he whispered: "What are you talking about, moving your mouth?" Hmph, why don't you move this mouth? β
"You tell me this." Qiao Xianting raised his head, and his brows furrowed tightly: "Our four brothers, you have always been the most stable one, the young man is stable and cautious." But you're bad because you're not sharp enough. Do you remember when we were young, our four brothers sat together, we can only have one person in our life, you said that you came to be this beam, tried your best to persuade the eldest brother, how much effort did you put in order to make us agree, how many promises you made, and finally finally got the eldest brother to agree, and now you have set up in the court and taken root, how did you promise back then, this is forgotten? β
"I haven't forgotten." Qiao Hongru lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "I remember everything I said back then, but don't forget, all the protection must be for the sake ......of the Qiao family, you let me move my mouth now, it's all your own selfish interests, have you ever thought about it?"
"What do you mean that I am for my own selfish gain?" Qiao Xianting's voice lost patience, and said in a deep voice: "How do you think that the imperial history of the Imperial Court of the Metropolitan Procuratorate could be so coincidental to temporarily remove Ning Fu as the steward of the banquet?" Do you think this is an eye-opener? Didn't I help you with this in secret? β
Qiao Hongru raised his head violently, very stunned.
Qiao Xianting took a deep breath and snorted: "I thought that when you reached this age and position, you would not easily believe in any coincidences, but I didn't expect to be so naΓ―ve." Our surname Qiao will always be one, Ning Fu to do this stewardship is tantamount to giving you an ugly face at the banquet, I secretly did something to make this matter yellow, but also for the dignity of the Qiao family, now let you move your mouth, do you think I am just for myself? Our brother, now it depends on you and me, hello, I will follow suit, in the same way, I get better, how can it be harmful to you? β
Qiao Hongru's head lowered again, he couldn't see what his face was, he could only hear his low voice and say slowly: "I have already made a lot of moves in this matter, and it was not easy to put people in it, if the money for this relief falls into your silver trumpet, wouldn't it be a matter of people......'s words."
Qiao Xianting didn't speak, he walked to the window, looked at the heavy rain outside that didn't seem to stop, his narrow eyes slowly narrowed, and suddenly with a wave of his big sleeves, the cup in his hand snapped and smashed on the jade ground, and the splashed broken porcelain made a piercing sound, and a few pieces of broken porcelain flew to Qiao Hongru's feet, rolling twice before stopping.
Qiao Hongru turned his head and looked at the messy ground with his eyebrows locked, but he didn't say a word.
"Fourth, my Qiao Er's silver number is the first in Da Zhou, even if you don't move this mouth, it is also one of the first choices for this payment, now it's just for you to push it a little, aren't you afraid of wolves and tigers for yourself? How long can I keep this amount? It's just that it's deposited here, and then it's sent down by the southern semicolon, and it won't stay in my hands for more than two months at the latest, and not a penny will be less, what can you give someone someone to say?! β
The money seemed to be just a turn in Qiao Xianting's hands, but the bulk of the money was remitted to the silver number in the capital at once, and the silver number in the south was distributed evenly, which means that Qiao Xianting melted the public funds into his hands.
He did this, and Qiao Hongru could understand what was going on.
First, because of the matter of Qiao Pinghai in front of the head, Qiao Xianting's reputation in the capital was affected a little, and if the royal family remitted the silver items into Qiao Xianting's silver number, the influence of Qiao Pinghai on the silver number in front of the head could be completely eliminated from the bottom of the people's hearts, and it was more trusted by the people.
With the state behind it, this is not a help that money can do at all, and more importantly, it has directly raised Qiao Xianting's social status by more than one notch.
Second, this large amount of money is in Beijing, in Qiao Xianting's hands, what he wants to do to make money make money is as easy as a snap, and he will no longer be constrained.
The more Qiao Hongru thought about it, the more blocked he became.
Remove Ning Fu's management rights in exchange for the inflow of this money.
His second brother really deserves to deal with money, and he really knows how to calculate this account.
The dampness of the rain drifted in, and even in the summer, it was even colder.
"I said this matter, help or not, you can do it yourself."
Qiao Hongru was still sitting in the chair, raised his head when he heard the words, and said in a deep voice: "Does Han Chen know that you are doing the action behind your back?" β
"What does he know?" Qiao Xianting sneered: "He dared to introduce Ning Fu to slap our Qiao family in the face, and he deserved to fight back with our surname Qiao!" β
