Chapter 498: Too Ruthless (Third Update!) )
"Jia Qiang is here."
Li Shi, the king of Kerong County, saw Jia Qiang and Li Xuan coming in, and also got up to greet him.
As an ordinary minister, seeing this scene, it is inevitable that he will not be grateful.
Li Shi's identity, for now, is very noble.
It's just that Jia Qiang doesn't have so much awe, and secondly, she always feels that it is difficult for the popular candidate to hold on to the end.
Moreover, Li Shi's errand this time was to force Jia Qiang to sell his son to Ruixiang in exchange for Tian Fu's help.
In the end, it was he who got the good and it was Jia Qiang who suffered, Jia Qiang didn't think that standing up to greet him would be considered a corporal Lixian.
His face was pale, and after saluting according to the rules, he didn't say anything.
Seeing him like this, Li Shi squinted his eyes slightly, his heart turned, and it was naturally not difficult to guess the reason why Jia Qiang was unhappy, he looked at Jia Qiang with a straight face, and said: "Jia Qiang, the lonely king understands your difficulties in this matter, and also remembers your favor." ”
Speaking of which, Jia Qiang didn't say anything more, and said: "The prince is serious, but it has nothing to do with the prince, so he said good things." ”
After that, his eyes fell on a middle-aged man he had never seen before, and when he saw him smiling, he stood there slightly bowed, how humble and humble he was, and guessed his identity.
It was Uncle Tian Fu, who was now more than twice as strong as a few days ago, and he almost engraved the word Bahu on his face, he glanced at Jia Qiang with a sneer, and said, "It's good, it's a good thing!" Jia Qiang, when the emperor was there, he was always kind to you, and even more admired you for being a good minister, how much kindness is this? If there is no emperor, you are afraid that you are still just a little minion who was kicked out of the house by the Jia family and almost expelled from the family tree? Are you qualified to stand here and talk to us? Now that the emperor is in a big line, leaving the queen mother alone to mourn, you, the emperor's good minister, shouldn't you be filial? ”
Jia Qiang said lightly: "Uncle Tian Guo, Benhou came here today, isn't he here to respect filial piety?" Besides, didn't you say in advance that you would take 100,000 taels to honor the queen mother? Ben Hou doesn't know, up and down the government and the opposition, who is more filial than me. ”
Hearing this, Tian Fu's face fell, and Li Shi, Song Zhe and others "looked up" at him.
Li Xuan was like a transparent person, happy on the sidelines, if it wasn't for the national funeral, he really wanted to laugh three times.
Tian Fu said with a dark face: "These are all secondary, but if you want to cheat the Zhao family and give a fake recipe again, then the Queen Mother, the King of Kerong County and the old man will never spare you!" ”
Compared with Tian Fu's sharp threat, Jia Qiang seemed much calmer, and he said indifferently: "The reason why the Dongsheng Zhao family got the fake recipe was because they colluded with Jia Zhen and wanted to take it without spending a penny. is also a seller, why did the Hang Seng Wang family get the real recipe? If it weren't for his own charm, his dirty mind, and his despicable and shameless methods, how could he bring shame on himself? ”
However, these words made Tian Fu and Song Zhe unable to get off the stage more and more.
Li Xuan became more and more happy, stood in front of Li Shi, squeezed his eyebrows and laughed quietly: "Gaga, fourth brother, have you seen it?" This kid can't afford to lose anything! I begged my father several times to let Jia Qiang come to the Internal Affairs Office to help me, but my father was not allowed, because I was worried that this kid would stab the dilapidated land of the Internal Affairs Office! No, I'll ask my father when I go back, or transfer Jia Qiang to the Internal Affairs Office, I don't look at him, he will always make trouble. ”
Li Shi laughed angrily: "You look at him? In the end, it is still the father who is wise and knows that he can't let you get mixed up. It's just this Jia Qiang......"
Where did he get the confidence to dare to go toe-for-tat like this?
But thinking about it again, Jia Qiang really has some money to mess around.
The Jia family will not talk about it, although it is a double prince, but the Ning Mansion has been in decline for many years, although the Rong Mansion has produced a Jia Daishan, leaving a lot of old departments in the army, but Jia Daishan has been dead for more than ten years, and it has also made the Yuanping heroes almost pulled out.
However, there is also a Lin Ruhai behind Jia Qiang.
A noble figure like Lin Ruhai, who is simply in the heart of the emperor and has made great contributions to the society of the country, is destined to enter the military aircraft in the future, that is, he, the prince, must be treated with courtesy before he ascends the throne.
Because of Lin Ruhai, the emperor obviously regarded Jia Qiang as an ordinary minister.
In addition, she somehow fell into the eyes of the queen, and Xu Xu, the only concubine of the Yin family, was also a wife.
Mrs. Yin Jiatai loves it very much......
Therefore, Jia Qiang does have some tough capital.
But, in any case, the top priority at the moment is still the Queen Mother's business.
Thinking of this, Li Shi said to Jia Qiang: "Jia Qiang, Fangzi, you must ensure that it is true, and there must be no mistakes." In this transaction, the lone king is also a middle-aged person. ”
Jia Qiang smiled faintly and said, "Lord Wang, this place is Jiuhua Palace, no matter how I don't know how thick the sky is, I won't take a fake recipe and fool people in Jiuhua Palace." ”
After that, he put the thick file in his hand on the side of a few cases, and said to Song Zhe: "Fangzi is here, you don't have to test it here, because you can't understand it at all." You are an old man in the cloth industry, so you naturally understand the primary colors of dyeing and weaving, only blue, red, yellow, white, and black, and the rest are intermediate colors. In addition to the five primary colors of green, yellow, red, black and white, there are also four colors of green, ochre, purple and green onion, a total of nine primary colors. These nine primary colors, the intercolor, and then the intercolor to match the intercolor, counting the shade, there are 745 colors. Some colors are made with three, or even seven or eight intercolored, to produce a bright color. If you Ruixiang can really master these recipes, you will be the first cloth in the world. ”
Seven hundred and forty-five colors?!
When Song Zhe heard this, he was so excited that he wanted to jump up, he took out a thick stack of silver tickets from his pocket, stepped forward and put them on several cases, and said, "The 300,000 taels of silver tickets are here, Ning Hou can count them." ”
Jia Qiang shook her head and said, "No need, Ben Hou doesn't dare to make ghosts here, let alone you are a businessman?" If something really goes wrong, the deed can be regarded as a witness. ”
When Song Zhe heard this, he hurriedly said: "It should be, it should be." "I feel more and more relieved.
Li Shi was also happy, sent someone to fetch the four treasures of the study, watched the two of them make a purchase and sale document, and signed and pledged together.
In triplicate, Jia Qiang and Li Shi each have one copy, and the other copy is held by Uncle Tian Guo in his hand.
Jia Qiang counted out a silver ticket of 100,000 taels of silver in front of him, handed it over to Uncle Tian Guo, and said goodbye to Li Shi.
Li Shi was willing to agree, and said: "Today, no matter what, wait until noon and eat a vegetarian meal together." King Gu still has a lot to say to you, you have always been close to Xiao Wu'er, why is this king not Ziyu's cousin? ”
Li Xuan quacked on the side and said secretly: "Fourth brother, how do you think this kid will be honest and obedient?" The father and the queen mother have beaten once before! Now that it's over, he still has to go to the Heart Cultivation Hall with me on an errand. But the fourth brother, let me tell you, Jia Qiang said that he made a somen sauce, which can be eaten with grilled mushrooms, which is delicious! We're going to call you for the evening, let's go ......"
Li Shi couldn't listen anymore, and after looking left and right, he whispered with a straight face: "When is this?" This is the place where you want to eat to satisfy your appetite? Let people know that it is not a great disrespectful sin to impeach you! Monkey business! ”
After Li Xuan was trained, he frowned and was silent, and he was not happy.
Seeing this, Li Shi twitched the corners of his mouth, knowing that these five brothers were quite favored by his father and queen mother because of his young age, and he had developed this kind of reckless temperament, so he could only shake his head helplessly and said: "I won't go, you two be careful, don't let people look at it." Otherwise, my father will not be able to spare you. ”
When Li Xuan heard this, he became happy again, and whispered: "Fourth brother, really don't you go together?" We also have to call my grandmother's little four, Jia Qiang has an excellent storyteller, hey, let me tell you, the book that the storyteller said was written by Jia Qiang himself, so stubborn......"
Li Shi exhaled slowly, he couldn't bear the noise, turned around and walked to Uncle Tian Guo and whispered a few words, Uncle Tian Guo put away the silver ticket, raised his hand, and walked to Shouxuan Hall to see the Queen Mother.
Song Zhe held the secret recipe file and was led out of the palace by the inner attendant.
After Jia Qiang and Li Xuan glanced at each other, Li Xuan almost lost his joy and went to the Heart Cultivation Hall together.
……
"Fang Zi is fake?!"
In the Palace of Nourishing Hearts, Emperor Long An saw Li Xuan laughing and complaining, and even said that Jia Qiang was "too bad", and then lowered his face and asked.
Li Xuan didn't give Jia Qiang a chance to speak, laughed a little hiccup, and after being forced, under the disgusted and annoyed gaze of Emperor Long An, he hurriedly said: "Father, the recipe is the real recipe, and the Ruixiang can also dye the cloud brocade according to the recipe, but if they really dye it according to that recipe, they have to pay for death!" ”
"Wu'er shut up!"
Seeing Li Xuan talking by himself, he was so happy that he couldn't laugh clearly.
Empress Yin saw that Emperor Long An was about to become really angry, and after hurriedly scolding her, she said to Jia Qiang: "Jia Qiang, you say, what's going on?" Since Fang Zi is real, why can't the Ruixiang be dyed? ”
Jia Qiang's face was also unbearable, and said: "Dye it can be dyed, and it can be dyed exactly the same!" It's just that according to the secret recipe to remember the process to dye, only the cost is twice as expensive as Yunjin, and many raw materials are only available in Jiangnan, and there are not many in Jiangnan. The labor required is more than ten times more expensive than that of ordinary weaving and dyeing.
For example, the silk that comes out of the silkworm cocoon is called raw silk. But there is a layer of sericin on the raw silk, with this layer of glue, it is not good to color, there are sundries in the glue, and the silk is not bright, so the raw silk must be degummed to become cooked silk.
Normal degumming is degumming through the warp silk pasting and tamping, so that the gum in the silk can be removed, and its fibers can be loosened, so that the silk obtained is cooked silk.
However, most silk degumming can be taken off to 50% at most, and most of them even only need to be removed by 30%. However, Yunjin must be taken off seventy percent.
For this alone, the Song family would have to spend at least three times as much labor to do this.
Coupled with the difficulty of finding other raw materials, don't even think about large-scale weaving and dyeing!
However, didn't the Song family and Uncle Tian Guo say that they wanted to weave and dye a few cloud brocade for the Queen Mother to make clothes? This is guaranteed, as long as they put their hearts into it, they can definitely do it!! ”
The degumming method used by Delin is to crush the pig liver and pancreas, and then use some rough refining techniques to extract biological enzymes to degum.
This method, even if Ruixiang uses more masters, it is impossible to think of it, so it can only be degummed with crude benzene.
"Hahaha!"
Li Xuan's laughter was a little too low, and when he heard Jia Qiang's serious explanation, it was more fun than listening to the cross talk of the Xianggong of the film, and finally got carried away and hooked up with Jia Qiang, gave a thumbs up and said: "Jia Qiang, you are too chicken thief, but you did a really beautiful job!" ”
"Presumptuous! Are there any rules? ”
Empress Yin scolded, and after letting Li Xuan stand up, he turned his head to look at Emperor Long An, and saw Emperor Long An staring at Jia Qiang with a strange face, and said, "So, you used such a recipe and got 300,000 taels of silver from the Song family?" ”
300,000 taels is by no means a small number for Emperor Long An.
Even at the moment, he doesn't have so much silver in his inner library.
Jia Qiang always felt that this look was a bit like a big bad wolf, and said busily: "Your Majesty, the 300,000 taels of silver, except for the 100,000 taels for Uncle Tian Guo, the rest will be put into the carriage factory." ”
Emperor Long An was silent, Empress Yin's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, looked at Jia Qiang and said with a smile: "These 200,000 taels, you and Wu'er are 100,000 each?" ”
Jia Qiang nodded, Li Xuan also smelled a bad breath, and said busily: "Queen Mother, these 100,000 taels are invested in the carriage factory, and when you earn a lot of silver, your son will repair the garden for you and your father, and it will be in Tangshan, there is warm soup......"
Empress Yin smiled and said: "It's good that you can have this filial piety, but your father and queen mother, how can you have this kung fu now, what kind of warm soup to wash?" Besides, there is no need to rush for the next year or two. At present, the emperor is in a big bank, and the treasury and inner treasury are all tight, and you really shouldn't use so much money to mess around. Take out 150,000 taels to share the worries of your father and mother? ”
Li Xuan's tears were about to fall, but he was sad and sad, and he laughed out loud, as if he had hit a guest, he looked at Empress Yin and said strangely: "Queen Mother, 150,000 taels?" ”
Jia Qiang was also a black question mark, leaning forward slightly, looking at Empress Yin with a look of "sorry to disturb".
Empress Yin was amused in her heart, but she frowned and asked, "Shouldn't Jia Qiang also do some filial piety?" Sooner or later, this matter will cause trouble, and in the end, it is not the emperor who protects you, why, reluctantly? ”
Jia Qiang gasped, and there was a laughing and trembling erha on his shoulder, he nodded again and again, and said: "Niangniang is worthy of being the first virtuous queen in the world throughout the ages. ”
"Poof! This palace sees that you are also begging to beat, and in front of the emperor and this palace, you dare to be flamboyant! ”
Empress Yin was greatly satisfied, and after glancing at Jia Qiang, she turned her head to look at Emperor Long An.
How ironing Emperor Long An's heart is, he feels that he has a wife like this, what more can his husband ask for?
However, it was not obvious on his face, only a faint "um" sound, and then waved his hand and said, "You two kneel down!" I warn you that you are not allowed to come during the national mourning! Stir up trouble again, be careful of your good skin! ”
……
The east gate of Qianqing Palace.
Jia Qiang and Li Xuan sat on the stone steps, looking into the distance together in a daze.
After Li Xuan finished his fun, he began to feel distressed when he left the Heart Cultivation Palace.
150,000 taels of silver!!
"Jia Qiang, is our carriage workshop still open?"
"the fart!"
"Don't mind!!"
"How can you open it without capital?"
"Why don't you get a small one first?"
"What's small? This stubbornness must be in place at one time, and it is not cost-effective to make it smaller, and it will cost more. Lord, you've been in business for a few years, so you always have a little bit of a family, right? ”
"Huh? What do you want to do? ”
"Tsk, your 100,000 taels are all going to be left by the emperor and the queen, you make up another 100,000 taels, and I will take out another 50,000 taels and start over!"
"You come less!! The 150,000, 75,000 for each of us! ”
"What are you laughing at?"
"This king is a serious person and never laughs! If you don't believe it, let's go back to find out after looking for our mother, if it's 75,000 for one person! ”
"Do you want to be so ruthless?"
"Quack! This king is also ruthless! Scared, right? ”
"Forget it, seventy-five is seventy-five thousand, seventy-five thousand, seventy-five for one person, otherwise the carriage workshop will not be open this year."
"Jia Qiang, my old book is so much, don't lose it, if it's really a loss, I will take the princess and the side concubine to your house to live."
"Huh."
"What do you mean?"
"Huh."
"How daring! Dare to hehe, this king, watch the fight! ”
……
After hearing Dai Quan's report, Emperor Long'an pondered for a while, waved his hand and said, "Let them go!" Don't bother. ”
As long as he doesn't participate in the seizure of the heir, Emperor Long An doesn't mind, Li Xuan and Jia Qiang are too close.
Being able to be a good prince in peace, safe and healthy, and rich and prosperous for a lifetime is Emperor Long'an's greatest expectation for Li Xuan.
What is an idle king, a stubborn friend?
As for Jia Qiang......
Lin Ruhai's body is not good, and he doesn't know how many years he can last.
Jia Qiang and Li Xuan are a little better, and they will have a point to rely on in the future.
It's not in vain for him and Lin Ruhai to have a fight......
