The Wang family once managed the sea pond for the imperial court, and was also responsible for taking care of the affairs of foreign tribute.

Haitang, scientific name steep wall seawall, is a steep wall-shaped embankment built along the coast with stones or strips of stone and other materials to keep tide and waves, which is an artificially built tidal dam and an important barrier in the southeast coastal zone. Unlike river embankments, the seawalls are made of more elaborate materials, after all, the power of a tsunami is not comparable to the flood of a river. Therefore, like river affairs, the state has special financial allocations every year, and even local governments have corresponding expenditures.

The salt merchants are all thieves and thieves, but just like that, they also spend money every year to repair the sea pond, because in many cases, the sea pond and the sea salt field are connected together. The quality of the sea pond is directly related to their pockets.

It is conceivable that with the appropriation of the imperial court, the support of the local finance, and the sponsorship of the salt merchants, this sea pond can be regarded as a rich business, and more importantly, in this business, the more you spend, the more money you get, just like the financial allocation in another world, the less you spend, the less the financial allocation will be in the coming year, and only if you spend more and more year by year, this financial allocation will be more and more.

At the beginning, the Wang family didn't know how much money they had saved in Haitang.

There are also foreign tributes and maritime merchants. The custom of the national dynasty has a long history, and the Great Qi has always been strict in the management of ships that are not in this dynasty, and the ships of non-this dynasty can only reach Jinling in the northernmost way. As a result, the goods of those maritime merchants had to be unloaded at Jinling, and then reloaded into small boats, river boats, or by land before they could enter the interior of Daqi. If the official in charge of management had skipped the card, there would have been no one to unload their ships even if they had entered the dock. Their cargo can only rot on the ship.

This reality has also caused those merchants to try their best to open up the joints to ensure the smooth flow of goods in and out, and even those foreign officials want to enter Beijing to pay tribute. It is also necessary to deal with and curry favor with the corresponding officials first.

When the Wang family was in the south, they not only made a large amount of money on the sea pond, but also got countless overseas treasures.

In such a situation. The Wang family quickly accumulated a large amount of wealth, including not only the large amount of money they added to the land, but also all kinds of ordinary people. Even if it is a treasure that the official eunuch family is likely to never see in a lifetime.

Under such circumstances, the daughters of the Wang family naturally live a rich and noble life that others envy. In the original book, Wang Xifeng will point to Jia Lian's nose and say, "Sweep the cracks in the ground of our Wang family." It's enough for you to live a lifetime. This sentence also illustrates the state of economic property. The Wang family is indeed much better than the Jia family in the original book. In the original book, the Jia family is already so rich, you can imagine what the Wang family was like when their economic status and power were higher than the Jia family at that time.

In such a situation, can the Wang family be thrifty?

Mrs. Wang Ziteng is a person who likes luxury and pleasure, and Wang Xifeng can make trouble and can't stand grievances, that is, Wang Ziteng has a heart, he can restrain his wife and daughter, can he still let his nephews and nieces be wronged?

So. While the historians were desperately trying to make a good reputation, the Wang family was resting on their laurels. Even the reputation of the Wang family is not as good as before.

For this reason, Wang Ziteng complained about his wife in private, and Mrs. Wang Ziteng was not easy to provoke, so he immediately ridiculed back: "If you want the horses to run fast and don't give the horses grazing, your abacus is really fine." In their hearts, Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng, who were really angry, also annoyed the two younger siblings of their mother's family. He once confided in his two brothers about his grievances. But the two Hou masters of the Shi family are both smart people, and they should answer their mouths, and they turned their heads and left them behind, but the little guys around them, in order to please the two Hou Ladies went back to report with added fuel and vinegar.

At this moment, where are the two Mrs. Hou not annoyed?

It turned out that it was the daughter of the Wang family who made trouble, and this sister-in-law didn't take care of the family's affairs well, and complained that they didn't give him face? Could it be that the face of his prince and Mrs. Teng is important, and the future of their Shi family's children is not important?

In this way, the two ladies of the Shi family became more and more disgusted with the Wang family, and they couldn't see Wang Xifeng squeezing Jia Qing.

Mrs. Baolinghou said: "Being able to be educated by the palace grandmother, this child is naturally good." Butler or something, of course. ”

Sure enough, Jia Qing replied to Mrs. Baolinghou's words: "Madame praised it falsely, how old am I, and what have I experienced?" It's just a ready-made old practice, and the grandmothers have sorted it out, take it to me and show it, tell me the cause and effect of doing so, and stamp it again by the way. It's just that Aunt Wang's words are strict, I'm young and can't be excited, Aunt Wang, you have a lot of adults, don't worry about my little girl. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Wang Xifeng with a smile.

Wang Xifeng was so angry that his face turned blue.

In terms of age, he was already close to Lu three years ago, and now he is a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, but he uses words to squeeze Jia Qing, a little girl who is only twelve years old and has not grown, and when it is spread, everyone will only count it, where will Jia Qing find fault with such a little girl? Besides, Miss Everyone's always has a little temper, if Jia Qing is too weak, it will only make people look down on her. Didn't you see Xue Baochai accompanying everyone to listen to the play in the original book, and sneering at Lin Daiyu several times in front of the elders?

Since it was Wang Xifeng who came to provoke Jia Qing, of course the elders would not say that Jia Qing was not, on the contrary, they were basically satisfied with Jia Qing's answer.

Although many families hope that the daughter-in-law who marries the door will be sensible and in charge, they also don't like the girl's personality to be too tough, and they don't like the girl to be too good at getting into trouble. In the original book, Wang Xifeng took over the lawsuit and put the money in the seal, Xue Baochai crossed Tanchun and Li Kun as the daughter of a relative and was unmarried, and the things in the Daguan Garden were not in accordance with the rules, especially Xue Baochai, in terms of identity, he was the daughter of the imperial merchant's family, the daughter-in-law of the Jia family's big house was lying down, and the daughter-in-law of the second room, it was not his turn to have many things, in terms of status, he was just a girl from the Xue family of the merchant family, and he was in charge of the affairs in the Grand View Garden, and even used the interests of the girls in the Grand View Garden to do favors to please those mothers-in-law, This kind of behavior, whichever family you put it, the adults of any family will shake their heads.

A serious girl is a girl who is safe and secure when she is at home, she is strong without pinching the tip and not fighting for power and profit, and it is enough to take care of the affairs in her own house. A young girl, you can have sharp teeth, because flattering the elders and making the elders happy, these are all filial piety, but it is wrong to pinch the tip and step on the girls of the same generation to put gold on your face. In the original book, Xue Baochai's behavior of stepping on Tanchun is actually stricter than Wang Xifeng's stepping on Li Kun, from the perspective of morality and etiquette. Because no matter what, Tanchun is the girl of the Jia family, but Xue Baochai doesn't believe in Jia, and although Wang Xifeng is holding Li Kun's head, it is because Wang Xifeng is the daughter-in-law of the long house, and Li Kun is the daughter-in-law of the second room and is still a widow.

As for now, it is his fault that Wang Xifeng is in front of the wife of the Jia family, and he uses words to squeeze Jia Qing, the girl of the Jia family. Moreover, the current situation of the Jia family is here, after Jia Yu went out of the sect, there were few people, and when the head of the family was Jia Cong, a doll who had just begun to read and write, and Jia Qing were there, only Jia Qing, a slightly older girl, came out to take care of the things here. In the final analysis, this is all the internal affairs of the Jia family, and it is not the turn of outsiders to talk more.

Wang Xifeng is also a smart person, and immediately knew that he was wrong, and immediately raised a smile, and said: "In the end, it was raised by a grandmother from the palace, but it is different." This sharp-toothed and sharp-mouthed appearance is not quite the same as the second sister, but it looks like a girl in our family. ”

Jia Qing reacted quickly, and immediately said: "Our old lady also likes a clever girl like Aunt Wang." My aunt has also said more than once that unless there is something else to rely on, girls can't be too soft. It's one thing to be soft, and it's a bad thing to feel like a good bully. If you meet someone who is equivalent to your own identity, you will occasionally give in to one or two, and it will make people feel self-contained. But if it's too soft and gives in again and again, it will only make people feel bullied. At that time, not only would you be bullied by outsiders, but also by the minions below. My aunt once told me repeatedly that girls may be able to back down for a while, but they can't back down all the time, and when it's time to stand up, they should still stand up. ”

Aunt said, aunt said, aunt said.

Wang Xifeng's aunt who was full of thoughts said, and he couldn't help frowning when he heard it: "I remember that the second sister is still a year younger than you?" Why did your aunt say it as soon as you opened your mouth, and it hurt my head to hear it. ”

Jia Qing said with a smile: "Since I called here, I have followed my aunt's side, learned my aunt's every move, and it was not until my aunt went to Yuqing Mountain that I was raised by my aunt." My aunt was raised by an old lady, so naturally she was excellent. ”

Hearing this, Jia's mother was overjoyed and said with a smile: "You kid, you just have a sweet mouth!" ”

Jia Qing sat down and smiled. He still remembers how Wang Xifeng took the opportunity of Quara Lin Daiyu to support Jia's mother when he first met Lin Daiyu in the original book. Although he can't speak as well as Wang Xifeng, a few nice words are not worth anything. As long as it doesn't get in the way, he is happy to please Jia Mu.

Xue Baochai sat under Jia Qing. On this occasion, he has always been dignified and will not interject, and he is also surprised that Jia Qing is so good at talking. After all, this is the first time in many years that Jia Qing has sat next to Jia's mother and came out to entertain as a representative of the big house. (To be continued......)
