After Lu Jing went home, he asked Chen Ting and Ge Yin to be invited, and the three of them drank tea and talked in the Moyan Pavilion.

After chatting for a while, Lu Jing's expression changed, and he asked solemnly: "How did the two brothers consider my proposal the day before yesterday?" ”

Ge Yin listened and said directly: "After you finished talking that day, I decided to listen to your arrangement!" ”

Chen Tingyi said with a firm face: "I have convinced Lord Jiayue, there is no problem at home!" ”

Lu Jing was a little moved in his heart after hearing this, and raised his glass and said: "I won't say more words of thanks, I will salute the two brothers in this cup!" "I drank it all down.

Ge Yin smiled after drinking: "There is no need to be like this between brothers, we have known each other for almost ten years, I dare not say anything else, but I know that it will not be wrong to follow you!" ”

Chen Ting also agreed: "Wen Jing is right, we have been friends for many years, Wen Jing and I know very well what you are, you have always been resourceful, and you have a long-term perspective than us, and now you must have your reasons for arranging like this!" ”

"Thank you for the trust of the two brothers, although the Zhaoxin Bureau is now only under the name of the household department, it will inevitably become independent in two or three years, and then the two brothers will be able to make great achievements and fly high!" Lu Jing said in a firm tone.

Chen Ting and Ge Yin gave up the Qingliu status and future of the Hanlin Academy, and agreed to their proposal to serve in the new department of the Zhaoxin Bureau, completely out of trust in themselves, and their hearts were both moved and pressured.

The more things he has experienced now, the stronger his sense of crisis, although he has now been reused by the emperor, but the king is like a tiger, and the court situation is changeable, maybe when the emperor will find a reason to liquidate himself, not to mention I don't know how much longevity the emperor has, when the new monarch takes the throne, the situation is more complicated, and he has been looking for opportunities for layout.

A month ago, Feng Yanji asked him to recommend a few talents to enter the Zhaoxin Bureau, Lu Jing immediately realized that this was a good opportunity for his own layout, and now that the Zhaoxin Bureau was established, everyone was reluctant to enter, and he was now on duty and could not enter, but he could recommend his own people to enter and gradually control the Zhaoxin Bureau.

Now that the imperial court is in financial difficulties, the situation is complicated, and the financial problems cannot be solved through reform, the emperor will definitely adopt more financing methods, as long as he can guide the imperial court to implement more financial strategies step by step, and then let the Zhaoxin Bureau control the financial situation of the whole country, then he will have the capital to become a chess player, but everything needs to be carried out in secret, and gradually arranged.

Chen Ting heard Lu Jing say this, and said with relief: "Huai Jin doesn't need to be like this, the Zhaoxin Bureau has something to do with you, and now the issuance of national bonds is a national policy, instead of staying up in the Hanlin Academy, it is better to do something practical in the Zhaoxin Bureau!" ”

The reason why he agreed to Lu Jing's proposal was that he believed that Lu Jing would not harm him, and second, he didn't want to rely on his father-in-law Chen Ju anymore, and now he had no confidence to say hard things to his wife at home, which made him very uncomfortable.

Lu Jing nodded and said: "Now the imperial court is short of money, although it can continue to live for a while by issuing treasury bonds, but it is not a long-term solution after all, there will definitely be more actions in the future, now that the Zhaoxin Bureau has just been established, no one is optimistic about its future, but it will definitely be promising in two or three years, and you will have an advantage in the first." ”

Ge Yin nodded and said: "Don't talk about anything else, let's just say that I haven't mixed the grade in the Hanlin Academy now, even if I am rated from the seventh grade next year, as long as I enter the Zhaoxin Bureau, I will be from the seventh grade, and I have already taken a step ahead of others." ”

Chen Ting also agreed: "Yes, I can also be promoted to another level when I enter the Zhaoxin Bureau, compared with those in the same year, my promotion speed is already very fast!" ”

Lu Jing raised his glass and smiled: "Then I wish the two brothers can go further in the Zhaoxin Bureau." ”

Feng Yanji had promised him that if he could recommend suitable talents to enter the Zhaoxin Bureau, Feng Yanji would arrange for them to be promoted to the next level.

Chen Ting is now reviewing from the Hanlin Academy of the Seventh Grade, Ge Yin is a Shu Jishi without a grade, even if the two of them enter the Zhaoxin Bureau, they are only the Seventh Grade, they will not attract attention, and they can slowly stand out, which is why he recommended the two.

With Feng Yanji's care, coupled with his own help, when the Zhaoxin Bureau is on the right track, the two of them can slowly get a high position in the Zhaoxin Bureau.

"The third round of selection will start soon, this bureau is related to national bonds, these days you pay more attention to how those businessmen sell national bonds, combined with the information I gave you, if you don't understand anything, you can ask me." Lu Jing continued, intending to train Chen Ting and Ge Yin into the first batch of specialized financial talents.

Ge Yin nodded and said: "I have been reading the information you gave me recently, and I have been paying attention to the selection of imperial businessmen these days, I have to say that your actions this time are really breathtaking, so that those businessmen are willing to pay money to supplement the treasury." ”

Chen Ting also felt the same way in his heart, and he had heard his father-in-law praise Lu Jing many times in private, which was why his father-in-law finally agreed to let him enter the Zhaoxin Bureau.

After Lu Jing was modest, he combined the issuance of treasury bonds to teach the two of them relevant financial knowledge.

At this time, in the Rongguo Mansion, Xue Baochai was taking Ying'er to Wang Xifeng's courtyard.

As soon as Wang Xifeng saw Xue Baochai, he immediately smiled heartily: "Oh, it's really a distinguished guest, I'll just say that the magpie outside is squeaking non-stop today, it turns out that you, a rare guest, are here!" ”

Xue Baochai heard the ridicule implied in Sister Feng's words, understood the source of her hostility towards herself, and didn't pay much attention to it, just smiled faintly and said: "It's mine, it's not me, I should often come to visit you, the second grandmother who is in charge!" ”

Wang Xifeng hurriedly smiled and said: "Don't say that, if you let the second wife listen to this, you can't scold me for being arrogant, I have no relatives in my eyes, and besides, what kind of family member am I, and whose family can I be, really speaking, I am temporarily in charge of the family for you, and when you become the second grandmother of Bao, this family will have to be handed over to you, and you will have to take care of me more when the time comes." ”

When Xue Baochai heard this, she knew that Sister Feng was testing herself, and she was overjoyed, so she hurriedly took the opportunity to explain: "Don't make fun of me, I can't afford the title of Bao Er's grandmother, and I don't have the intention of climbing high branches to marry Baoyu." ”

Although Xue Baochai's answer was a little unexpected, Wang Xifeng thought about it and felt that it was reasonable, since the attacker was pregnant, Xue Baochai moved out without hesitation, and she guessed that Xue Baochai's mind was shaken, so she made a tentative statement.

Hearing Xue Baochai's answer at this time, she was not gullible, and still quietly probed: "Oh, you are shy, we are sisters, in front of me, what else do you have to hide, the second wife praises you all day long for how virtuous you are, just say it?" ”

Xue Baochai said with a smile: "I think it's because Aunt Su Rili often talks about me, so you misunderstand your aunt's thoughts, you see that the old lady doesn't often talk about me." ”

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Although the old lady doesn't often praise you, she also said that these girls in the house are not as good as you, and this praise is not worth 10,000 sentences." ”

Xue Baochai hurriedly smiled: "Where can I compare to the girl in the house, I think it is the old lady's polite words, if it is true, I can't afford it." ”

Wang Xifeng saw that Xue Baochai had been looking as usual, and believed her words a little in his heart, so he smiled and said, "I heard that Baoyu has often talked about you these days. ”

Xue Baochai shook his head and smiled: "Sister, don't frame me, although I don't live in the garden now, I also know that Brother Bao runs to the yard of Xiangyun's girl every day, how can he talk about me for no reason, not to mention that since I moved out of the garden, I don't plan to move back." ”

Wang Xifeng was basically sure in his heart when he heard this, Xue Baochai broke off his thoughts about Baoyu, and was secretly happy in his heart, compared with the shrewd Bao girl, Xiangyun is a fool, even if he gets the identity of Bao Er's grandmother, it is easy to deal with, and the heart that has been hanging is half lowered.

Then he smiled and said: "Speaking of this, I want to say a few words to you, you moved out quietly that day, and then the second wife came to question me, saying that who offended you in the garden, you moved out, and I want to find out who said what gossip, now you have to explain it to me, and the next time the second wife comes to ask, I can also have a head to say." ”

When Xue Baochai heard this, he immediately found an opportunity and hurriedly led the topic to the matter of the imperial businessman: "Blame me for not making it clear, but you were scolded by the second wife, I will make amends to you first, those days were the time of the imperial businessman's selection, and the family was too busy, so I moved home to help." ”

"Speaking of this, I should ask the Imperial Merchant if the matter has not been commented on yet? It's been a few days. Wang Xifeng asked.

Xue Baochai took the opportunity to say: "Since Sister Feng asked, then I will tell you frankly, now that the Xue family is in trouble, I have to come to my sister for help, begging my sister to help the Xue family in the face of relatives." ”

"What you said makes me embarrassed, but I heard that you are only famous now, and many people are asking about you, how can I help you?" Wang Xifeng said with a smile.

Since she learned that Xue Baochai entered the top ten in the Imperial Merchants Selection, she became more and more jealous of Xue Baochai, and the reason why she designed to frame Baoyu was that in addition to taking revenge on Mrs. Wang, she didn't want Xue Baochai to marry into the Jia family and become Mrs. Wang's help.

Xue Baochai hurriedly complimented: "Where can I compare to my sister, everyone in the house says that you are a woman who does not let you have eyebrows, and now that the Xue family has encountered something, I have to ask for your head!" ”

Wang Xifeng felt a little proud after hearing this, and said with a smile: "Don't pour me ecstasy soup, if something really happens, you should also go to the second wife." ”

Xue Baochai hurriedly said: "Only you can do this, and others can't do anything about it!" ”

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "I can be regarded as a great teacher of you, you tell me what is the matter first, if you can't help, don't blame me for losing your face." ”

Xue Baochai said with a smile: "The next selection will start in two days, you also know my brother's temperament, and now there is no one in charge of the Xue family who can stabilize the matter, so I want to ask Second Brother Lian to help my brother." ”
