Time passed little by little, and Mrs. Jia looked anxious: "Min'er, I'm a little panicked in my heart, I'm afraid something is wrong?" ”

Jia Jingmin was also nervous in her heart, but she said, "Mother, you are waiting anxiously, it's okay." Shopkeeper Qi and Wang Erwa are together, if something really happens, someone must have run back to report the news. This no one has come back, and it may still be trading. I heard that those Hu people were hospitable and good at drinking. On the contrary, I am worried that they are pulling Jia Song to drink, but the shopkeeper should be a measured person. Mother, let's wait. ”

Ruyi ran out to take a look again, and came back and asked Mrs. Jia: "Madam, is the kitchen asking for dinner?" ”

Mrs. Jia sighed: "Send it to Mr. Qin." Let's wait for Jia Song, we don't have the heart to eat now! This kid, when he goes out to run errands, he doesn't know that his family is in a hurry? If there's anything delayed, you send someone back to report it! ”

The sky gradually darkened, Jia Jingmin couldn't help it, stood up and said, "Ruyi, go and call Uncle Zhou to set up a car, let's go to the shopkeeper's house to have a look!" ”

Ruyi ran out of the door, and not long after, he ran back with a panicked face: "Young master, I'm back!" Doesn't look right! ”

Wang Erwa went directly into her room, Jia Song looked ashen, drooped his head, and slowly walked into the backyard.

Seeing Jia Song walking into the door in despair, Mrs. Jia and Jia Jingmin's hearts sank and they stood up together.

"What's wrong!" Mrs. Jia shouted.

"Shopkeeper Qi poured us two bowls of tea, and Wang Erwa and I drank it and were fascinated. The goods are gone, the shopkeeper is gone, and the Hu merchants are gone. We reported to the official, and the official took us to the house of the shopkeeper Qi, and his wife and children were gone! I searched all over the city for a day, but I couldn't find anything. We were deceived by him, mother, sister, the shopkeeper of Naqi, colluded with Hu Shang, and deceived all our silk! Jia Song's eyes were red, and tears flowed out.

Mrs. Jia was stunned, shook in place, her body shook, Ruyi stepped forward to support Mrs. Jia, and slowly sat back on the chair.

Jia Jingmin's pretty face turned pale and sat down dejectedly. Tears in his eyes: "Mother, this matter depends on me, so I shouldn't have done this deal!" ”

Mrs. Jia didn't say a word, and stared at Jia Song in a daze.

Jia Song squatted on the ground with a sad face, crying in a low voice.

Jia Jingmin said with a crying voice: "Mother, what's wrong with you? You speak! Don't scare me, scold me, blame me for not being good! ”

Mrs. Jia let out a long sigh: "What am I scolding you for?" Your father, when he leaves, I must watch you get married! watched Jia Song marry a wife. I thought, I can buy you a decent dowry. I can give this cloth to Jia Song. I'll do it too, and I'll fulfill your father's wish. However, we were targeted by the bad guy who killed a thousand knives, and they came prepared, and they stayed in our house for a few months! Can we prevent today, can we prevent tomorrow?! Sooner or later, he will still succeed! I'll just say, why did Hu Shang take the initiative to come to the door as soon as he came, thinking that he was wealthy. As a result, people are in a bad place. We can't avoid this catastrophe. I don't understand, why did he target our family? Our family is the worst run in the entire cloth shop! Why are you eyeing our family? Mrs. Jia rolled down with two lines of tears.

Jia Jingmin had a pretty face, and she had already cried out with rain. Ruyi wiped her tears while supporting Mrs. Jia.

Jia Song sat paralyzed on the ground, he no longer whimpered, but tears were still flowing.

I don't know how long it took, Mrs. Jia took a deep breath: "Shut up!" Back then, your father and I fled all the way from the northwest to here, penniless. With one pair of hands, he also earned this house! We have to live our days! Jia Song, tomorrow you go to the cloth shop for a meeting and announce our withdrawal from the cloth shop business. The inventory in the cloth shop, you ask other people, who wants, sell it out at a low price. When you come back at noon, bring a tooth man back, and this house will be sold immediately! There can be five hundred taels. Return to the Wu family, two hundred taels. and return the quality bank two hundred taels. Those jewels have to be brought back, that's your sister, the bottom of Ruyi's box. Even if I want to sell it in the future, selling it one by one, it is better than dying to the pledge warehouse! The workers in the outer courtyard have been with us for a long time, and everyone has more March and monthly cases, so they are all dispatched. We still have a hundred taels of silver left, go rent a small yard, and buy two cloth machines back, and our family life can still live! If you have the right person, marry first, my jewelry, share some of your dowry, I really wronged you. ”

Ruyi said with tears: "I don't want it, I will also use a cloth machine, I want to accompany Mrs., Miss." I don't marry, and no one loves me when I marry. ”

Mrs. Jia sighed: "Poor stupid child! Let's talk about this when there's a suitable one. Jia Song, I can't afford to hire a gentleman at home. Give Mr. Qin two more months, tell him about it, and ask him to make plans early. Ay! It's a pity, it's a pity! ”

Qin Feng didn't know that he was already unemployed.

In his room, he saw the strange appearance of Jia Song and Wang Erwa, and concluded that something was wrong. Silently watched Jia Song walk into the backyard in despair, and then there was a faint sound of crying. Qin Feng was also a little sad in his heart.

It's just that it's a family affair, and it's in the backyard. Qin Feng couldn't come up with an idea to comfort him.

This night was the sad night of the Jia family.

Early the next morning, Jia Song went out. Ruyi's red and swollen eyes brought Qin Feng breakfast.

Qin Feng asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Ruyi pursed her lips tightly: "Mr. Qin, when Young Master Jia comes back at noon, you will know." ”

Mrs. Jia's plan was to wait until noon, after Jia Song withdrew from the cloth shop, bring the tooth man to see the house, and then announce the dismissal. Everyone still lives here for the time being, but they have to make other plans in advance, and when the house is sold, they will send the severance pay to everyone.

The cloth shop held a meeting, which was in a tea house, Fengming Tea Room. This kind of tea house provides tea lady singing and dancing, as well as various tea art performances. It is suitable for some guests who do not like wine and tea.

Businessmen can also choose this place to talk about business, or if you have an important meeting. Because of the quietness, the environment is comfortable, and the guests are all drinking tea and tasting art, they generally will not encounter the embarrassment of causing trouble after drinking.

Moreover, the tea lady here is high-end and high-grade. Exactly, the drunkard's intention is not in the wine, and the art of the tea house is not in the tea, but in the mountains and rivers.

Today is the meeting of the cloth guild, and it is inevitable that there will be any activities after the meeting, but when the meeting is held, it is still relatively formal and serious.

Jia Song came to the second floor, and there were already some cloth dealers sitting down at several large round tables, drinking tea and eating snacks. Waiting for everyone to gather.

Jia Song chose one, sat down in the corner of the door, and was at war between heaven and man in his heart!

He thought about it for a long time last night and still didn't make a decision, it was a difficult decision!

If, according to his mother's plan, his whole life may be spent in a small courtyard. It won't be better, it's only going to be worse. Mr. Qin will leave, no one will teach him arithmetic, no one will praise him again. There was no one to help him take care of that seed, and the seed would rot in his heart, and it would be uncomfortable to think about it.

Jia Song did not blindly worship Qin Feng, but Qin Feng's talent, insight, and thoughts in the past two days convinced Jia Song.

and splashed skin, outspoken and eloquent in the hall, arithmetic made the Xueba sister out of reach, the plan of the empty gloves and silver business, and the story of the Knights Templar!

Jia Song himself didn't realize that Mr. had become the biggest support in his heart.

Therefore, Jia Song still has a plan for himself, this plan is crazy! Even Jia Song himself was a little scared.

Escorts, Knights Templar, Merchant, Merchant Plan...... These elements were crowded in Jia Song's mind, desperately trying to form a crazy plan!

This plan is like a thick vine, entangled in Jia Song's brain, unable to shake off, and still tightened. Jia Song felt like his head was about to explode.

Jia Song's side sat down several dealers one after another. Everyone nodded to each other, Jia Songqiang smiled, nodded and signaled, and did not speak. The rest of the people didn't pay attention to him, and if they knew each other, they chatted with themselves.

"Brother Cheng, one hundred taels per household, this apportionment is a bit high!"

"Brother Wu, there is no way to do this, we can only admit it. We have a total of more than 60 dealers, and there is a gap of more than 3,000 taels, and the heads of the three guilds are all round, what else can we say? ”

"Brother Cheng, can this be compared? It's going to be the first big one! The entire Nanchang Mansion's cloth and textile, they account for eighty or ninety percent! They're rich! ”

"What's wrong with having money? Is there an extra family? The cloth dealer sitting right now, how much money is there, right?! This is apportionment, and if people are willing to pay more, they have to admit it. Otherwise, it can really be divided evenly among each family, and we have to give more! ”

"Brother Cheng has a point. Alas, the root cause is, Lord Futai Shu, isn't he a clear stream? How can you do things to please eunuchs? To rebuild the ancestral hall for the eunuch with great fanfare, isn't this becoming a treacherous minister? ”

"How about Qingliu, there are still factions in Qingliu. Just like the three of us will go to business together, and usually call each other brothers, which is so good. But are they really that close? Hehe. ”

"Yes! Things will change, and so will people......"

"Stop, two, stop! Don't guess, I'll just ask, how is Jiangxi under the governance of Lord Futaishu? ”

The two nodded in unison, and one said: "It's not bad, Lord Futai Shu is still a good hand in governance." For the people, for our merchants, it's not bad. ”

"Good!" The man said, "Then if Lord Futai Shu resigns, are you willing?" ”

The two were silent for a moment, and one said, "If you want to meet an official like Master Shu again, I'm afraid it's a little difficult." ”

Another person also shook his head: "Master Shu has been staying in Jiangxi, that's the best." ”

The man laughed, "It's over!" Let's apportionment this one hundred taels, even if it is, help Master Futai Shu. ”

"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”

"The two of you, the affairs of the court are very complicated. We Jiangxi is a rich land, and if we are an official, we want to come here to govern. But Lord Futai Shu has always had a high reputation. Those people don't have a chance either. It's just that recently, have you heard that Dongying and Goryeo chess players are resident in Qingfeng Temple? ”

"Yes! Who doesn't know this? Those two have been here for more than half a year, and we Dahua, no chess player has ever won! It's a shame to say! Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting! Haven't we Dahua scholars been learning these things? How come even the chess players in the land of two projectiles can't do it? Or two barren, ignorant projectile land! ”

"Yes, it is said that this matter has alarmed the emperor! I sent several national players over, but the result was the same loss! It is said that the emperor was so angry that his face turned white, and he scolded the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy and the students of Guozijian. That Dongying, the chess players of Goryeo also spoke badly, jokingly saying that the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting after Dahua were changed to song and dance calligraphy and painting. It's a shame, but what does this have to do with Master Shu? ”

"Originally, it didn't matter! But the matter is getting bigger and bigger, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, the world's scholars, when they talk about this, they all frown. The dignified Dahua Dynasty, just lost so shamelessly, someone has to come out to take responsibility and be scolded and blamed, right?! Who wants to come? To put it bluntly, everyone in the world is responsible! So who is most responsible? Court? Emperor? Can these two take the blame? No, I can't! More humiliating, isn't it? Then there is only Master Shu, and there is a reason to say it, this Dongying and Goryeo chess players are pumping Dahua face on your turf! You say, Master Shu is still not allowed to hurry up and do activities? Master Shu just wanted to pass this level, so he repaired the ancestral hall for the eunuch. ”

One of them sighed: "Isn't this a disaster?!" ”

"Yes! When Lord Shu encounters this unwarranted disaster, will it affect us and other pond fish? One hundred taels for a family. ”

The man said: "Master Shu is also helpless, if it is only for the position of governor." He may not be willing to collude with this eunuch, but he really doesn't want to carry this pot! In this black pot, it is filled with a thousand years of infamy, and the world's scholars are worried that there is no place to vent, and Lord Shu is behind the pot! Just right! It's all in your pocket. The reader scolded and scolded, but he still understood in his heart that Master Shu was wronged! But the common people in the world don't know wow, when they see that the scholars are scolded and the court is degraded, they will take it seriously! The people of the world still don't scold Lord Shu to death? The Shu family has been around for generations, how will they be in the future? Therefore, Master Shu had no choice but to make this decision. ”

A merchant nodded, quite insightful: "After a long time, the imperial court plans to let Lord Shu carry the black pot, but Lord Shu can't afford it!" I can only ask the eunuchs for help! Let's just say, how could Master Shu be so taboo, and he was not afraid of being spurned by the clear stream of the DPRK. It turned out that he had been abandoned by those people! That, no wonder Master Shu. ”

"Yes! I'm going to be finished! Still not saving yourself? Wouldn't that be damned?! Even if you expect someone to pull you, you have to reach out first! Isn't it? ”
