Lin Zhixiao is still very old-fashioned, and there is no way to copy more than a dozen families at one time, so he arranged for someone to control the other families in advance, so as not to hide money in advance.

Then the troops were divided into three ways and copied from house to house, and the efficiency was still very fast.

Even so, by the time all the copies were finished, it was already the end of the time.

Mingyan quietly walked to Jia Baoyu's side and said, "Moyu and Sweep Red have all quietly stared at it, and they have also secretly inquired, Steward Lin and a few stewards are very well-behaved and have not done anything in the middle."

Jia Baoyu nodded silently.

Of course, he doesn't think that those who serve him are all good, but at least, they are all better.

Otherwise, Jia Baoyu would not give them the opportunity to surrender.

Raiding the oil and water in the house is no worse than building a garden, although he believes that these people dare not commit crimes against the wind, but the necessary monitoring is still necessary.

Walking out of the hall, Jia Baoyu came to the courtyard.

Lin Zhixiao is still leading the inventory.

"Second master, there are too many things, the slaves only confiscated the silver, silver tickets, valuable antiques and farm shops, and the others have not been moved, and there is no intentional damage."

Lin Zhixiao is not a domineering person, in the end, he has worked together before, although he is now on the opposite side, but he still does not go too far.

Only copy what is valuable.

"None of the people in their family resisted?"

"Naturally, there is, but as soon as I heard that this was what the second master meant, and warned them to hand them over to Tianfu if they made any more nonsense, they would be honest."

The people are afraid of officials, and the minions are even more afraid of officials.

Because the slave is managed by the government, they used to rely on the face of the master's family, and they were nobler than the people, once the master's family wants to clean them up, what is called "slave", and the taste can be tasted by them.

Jia Baoyu raised his eyes and glanced at the boxes and packages that filled the entire courtyard, divided into more than ten piles, four of which were particularly obvious, because there were many more than others.

These four piles were also put at the forefront by Lin Zhixiao.

Lin Zhixiao saw Jia Baoyu's gaze, and immediately said: "These four places are single housekeepers, Qian Steward, Feng Steward, and Xia Steward. ”

"How much is Aunt Shan's house?"

"It adds up to about thirty or forty thousand."

Jia Baoyu and Lin Xia were talking in front, and an old man who was kneeling immediately bowed down and pleaded guilty.

Jia Baoyu asked him: "Aunt Shan, how many years have you been a housekeeper in the Jia family?" ”

"Return, back to the second master, the old slave has been in charge of land rent in the house for more than 30 years since the old lady was the housekeeper, and then he was promoted to the housekeeper by the master, and it has been more than 10 years."

The old man was already frightened, and Wu Xindeng's tragic situation obviously frightened him.

Unexpectedly, Jia Baoyu nodded and said: "You are far worse than Wu Xindeng, people have only worked for six years, you have been working for decades, but you can't even accumulate half of the family's property, it's really a failure." ”

"The old slave is terrified."

"Okay, you get up, in these things, if you can tell the way clearly, whether it is rewarded by the master, or given by others, or earned by yourself, I will ask someone to wrap it up for you and send it back, which is considered a decent part of you."

"The old slave doesn't dare"

Obviously, Aunt Shan thought that Jia Baoyu was talking back.

is a housekeeper, and the monthly money for a year plus the normal reward is only one hundred and ten taels.

The family property of thirty or forty thousand yuan is enough to explain his character.

"I heard that because you and Lai Da did not get along, he was excluded from the construction of the garden this time, and he did not receive many errands. You should rejoice.

Okay, I'll be the talker, you claim the things, and then go home to retire.

The reason why I didn't punish you was that I saw that you were seventy or eighty, and left you a decent one, and turned around and asked your eldest son to come in and receive sixty boards, which can be regarded as a son acting for his father. ”

Lin Zhixiao saw that Aunt Shan didn't dare to get up, so he also said: "Brother Shan, you can get up, Second Master Bao is talking and is not joking with you." ”

Aunt Shan believed that she was very grateful, and then she didn't dare to claim more, only hastily recognized a few things that he was really reluctant to do, but she didn't dare to ask for any more money, and then left with a thousand thanks under the leadership of his youngest son and daughter-in-law.

"Wait, these five hundred taels of silver, take it back, it can be regarded as a reward for your decades of housekeeping."

Jia Baoyu pointed to the bag of silver that he had thrown at him before and said to Aunt Shan.

"Thank you, Second Master!"

Aunt Shan bowed and thanked again.

Jia Baoyu ignored him and looked back at the other three frightened people.

"Hehe, the Qian family, the Feng family, the Xia family, the three of you, but they are all big families in the house, hum."

"Ask the second master for mercy, the minions know that they are wrong, ask for the second master to be merciful"

It's a pity that their plea for mercy did not slow Jia Baoyu's complexion by half a minute, but said coldly: "Each of the three of them will be beaten with eighty boards, and then all the people who are directly related to these three families will be driven out of the house." ”

The so-called expulsion from the house is not to return the slaves and become free people, but to drive out the household slaves and leave them to fend for themselves!

Their slavery is still in the master's house.

The Lord is to clean them up, at any time.

The mournful wail resounded through the Rongguo Mansion.

Tonight, everyone is destined to be unable to sleep.

At Jia's mother's place, a mother-in-law said to Jia's mother: "Old lady, look"

"That's it, sooner or later, he will be the master of this family, since he wants to establish a new law, let him toss it."

"Then, those people outside, their mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law, most of them are running errands in the inner house"

"Alas, Mother Lou, don't sleep tonight, and drive out the families of those people he disposed of."

"Yes."

At about the same time, Madame Wang gave the same order.

At this time, Jia Baoyu's unique identity advantage was undoubtedly revealed.

Even if many of the people Jia Baoyu disposed of were Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang's people, but because Jia Baoyu was their precious son, precious grandson, and the person they would rely on in the future, at this time, even if it was a broken wrist, they had to maintain Jia Baoyu's dignity and prestige.

Of course, more importantly, it is.

Jia Baoyu is now ranked in the third grade!

The hustle and bustle in the antechamber of Rongxi Hall did not end until the end of the hour.

Of the more than a dozen stewards, half were expelled from the Rongguo Mansion.

The rest returned with only a small amount of possessions, and were stripped of their positions and reduced to the lowest ranks.

In the entire courtyard, only Lai Da was the only one kneeling.

Originally, he was the most damned one, but because of Jia's mother, Jia Baoyu needed to let him go.

But Jia Baoyu has no regrets, family members are meant to tolerate each other.

As long as the shadow of the Lai family will never appear in Rongguo Mansion in the future.

Lin Zhixiao, Zhou Rui and other seven or eight housekeepers and stewards who were not named and disposed of gathered in front of the hall.

Jia Baoyu glanced at Zhou Rui, who was slightly uneasy: "Do you know why you haven't been raided?" ”

Zhou Rui hurriedly knelt down and said: "The slave is guilty, please spare the second master"

"Ming'er, you personally send the income from the greedy ink in the garden to the account room, and log it into the warehouse, so that the past can be avoided, otherwise, it will be the wife's companion, and I will not be unable to do it."

"Yes, the minions obey, the minions don't dare"

Zhou Rui wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

He is not a person who has taken refuge in Jia Baoyu in advance, nor is he clean.

It's just because he is the companion that Mrs. Wang brought to the Jia family from the Wang family, and like Mama Lai and Jia's mother, Zhou Rui is the number one person who can best represent Mrs. Wang's dignity.

In addition, he is only a steward in charge of land rent, which is far less than Lai Da's greed, so Jia Baoyu spared him once.

When the water is clear, there is no fish, Jia Baoyu naturally understands.

After making a register of all the belongings and putting them in the warehouse, Jia Baoyu said:

"Okay, tonight, I sent seventy or eighty people out of my house in one go, and most of them were people in important positions. From tomorrow onwards, you guys will have to be more tired and cautious, and if something goes wrong during this period, I don't mind sending some more people out.

Anyway, our family lacks everything, but there is no shortage of people.

Of course, the errand is well done, and now that there are so many vacant positions, everyone should understand what I mean.

Ten days at most, the new appointment will be implemented, and how much benefit you can get from me at that time depends on your own ability. ”

Jia Baoyu said, stopped and looked at everyone's expressions, secretly rejoicing, and some of them had golden light in their eyes.

Jia Baoyu didn't mind at all.

This group, at least, will be much better than the previous ones in the next few years.

That group of people was only corroded in decades, and this batch, he will not give them a chance to corrode.

"Lin Zhixiao stayed behind to clean up the last heads, and the others dispersed for the time being."

"Yes."
