Chapter 225: Patterns are not replicable
It has been three days since the two Tatars were handed over, and there has been no movement.
Jia Rui didn't inquire about the news, and Xu Daozhong didn't reply to Jia Rui.
Jia Rui once wanted to inquire about the news, but after thinking about it, he forgot it.
He is only a seven-rank official, and if he is in a county seat, he may be the lord of a county.
But in the capital, such officials grabbed a lot of them. Just throw a brick, and you can smash a few seven-pins.
Although there were many dumb people among the court officials, they were not without smart people.
Which official can climb to the status of the court class, they have all gone through a lot of fighting, and they are all smart people.
There are also military bigwigs such as the Ministry of War, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, the Beijing Battalion, and the various guard posts, who have received news in advance, even if the Tatars do not attack the capital, they should make some preparations, right?
Besides, the 200,000-strong army in Shanshui Pass, with four or five million silver per year, can still intercept the Tatars.
Northern Xinjiang and other passes, guarded, serious preparations, even if the Tatar iron cavalry is strong, it is not easy to attack the capital.
It's a bit redundant to worry too much about this matter.
Being able to crack this spy case is also worthy of the court and the people, and worthy of the fame of this Jinshi.
After inspecting the Dongcheng for a while, checking the traffic situation in Dong'anmen, and going around the Dongsi Pailou Market, Jia Rui arrived at Chongwenmen.
I stayed in my uncle Huang Jin's shop for a while, and my uncle introduced the business situation.
The poker business that he and his uncle have partnered with has now entered a stable period.
Although there are still two imitations in the capital, the market is getting bigger and bigger, and the business of the three is not bad.
The money earned in the poker business was directly handed over by my uncle to Jia Rui's grandmother Wang, and Jia Rui basically didn't ask too much.
While the two were talking, Baoyu suddenly entered.
"Brother Rui, how did you get here?"
"I'm coming to see my uncle. Baoyu, how did you come here? ”
"I'm here to talk to my uncle about business."
"Do you do business?"
"Brother Rui forgot, this business is still proposed by you. Last time you asked Xichun to draw, didn't you say that you asked the girls to draw comic strips? The girls did the math and did it. ”
"At present, the "Thousand Character Text" has begun to be printed, and this time I will send the manuscript of "Yan's Family Motto" to my uncle. Uncle, this is the manuscript, you can take a look. If something doesn't fit, I'll take it back and ask the girls to fix it. ”
Baoyu handed Huang Jin a stack of manuscripts.
"So you guys actually did it, but I didn't expect that."
"Yes, Second Master Bao is very enthusiastic and very diligent."
Huang Jin praised.
"If it's something else, it's just a matter of doing things for the girls, if you don't be diligent."
Baoyu does things for the girls, and there are thousands of people who are willing, and they are a friend of women.
"What does Uncle think of this business?"
"It's good, I contacted some bookstores and they were all willing to buy them. At present, 1,200 copies have been pre-ordered. If the book comes out, there will be more buyers. ”
"On the Zhili side, plus the merchants in the south, I also contacted them, and they were all interested. I think it sells well. ”
"I used to have a picture book, but I didn't have many paintings. There are only a few illustrations in a book. This book is mainly illustrated, with explanations, unique style, and very original. People who watched it said they liked it. ”
Jia Rui looked at the manuscript, the paintings are indeed more exquisite, and the words are more refined, as an enlightenment and pastime reading, it is a good book.
Although I don't think it suits my taste, it should still be an excellent read for people in this era.
Judging from the drawings and descriptions, the girls really grasped the characteristics of the times.
This also shows that the girls in Jiafu are indeed very talented.
"Brother Rui, I also read the three poems you wrote last time in Guozijian, they are very good, and the girls like them very much."
Because Jia Rui gave the girls the idea of publishing a book, Baoyu is more pleasing to Jia Rui now.
Love the house and Wu, and even this Jia Rui's poems, I also think that they are very well written.
"It's just a casual write, a work that is appropriate to the situation, and it should not be taken seriously."
"Brother Rui, you sit here, I'll go to Feng Ziying and Wei Ruolan and them to promote the "Thousand Character Text". By the way, Second Brother Lian has been promoted. Won't you go back and see him? ”
Jia Lian was promoted? This guy is moving very fast. 、
"What kind of official did you get?"
"It seems that the commander of Ping'an Prefecture knows something or something, and I don't remember it."
The commander is the same knowledge, if it is a real job, at least a subordinate of the fifth grade.
However, with his little ability, can he still be a fifth-grade official? Aren't you afraid of missing a big thing?
"Rui Ge'er, the people in Jia Mansion are very capable. It is said that Bao Erye is not doing his job all day long, and I think he is also very concerned about book printing. ”
Hehe, that's because it's because of the girls' errands, change something else, and you try again?
After all, they are still brothers, and Jia Rui is not good at saying bad things about Baoyu, so he chatted with his uncle for a while and walked back.
After walking a short distance, he met Wei Ruolan and Ma Shangde, one with a general armor.
However, both teams seemed to be very embarrassed, their clothes were torn, and many of them were limping.
Wei Ruolan and Marchand's faces were swollen, and there were still blood stains on the corners of Marchand's mouth.
"Ouch, two, what's wrong with you, have you encountered hard stubble?"
Jia Rui looked behind him, and there was no one in charge.
"Brother Rui, you can make our brothers suffer."
Wei Ruolan cried and chirped.
"Yes, you hurt us, if it weren't for you, we would have suffered such a big loss."
"Hey, hey, you two make it clear, when did I hurt you? What the hell is going on with you guys? ”
"You're embarrassed to say, if you hadn't challenged the country's eunuch, would we have been able to do this?"
"I challenge the national eunuch, what does it matter to you? You didn't challenge it. ”
"Who says we didn't challenge?"
"You're also going to challenge the country? They also owe you money? ”
"We didn't challenge Guozijian, we challenged Jingying."
"Why do you challenge Jingying?"
"Isn't it just like you Dongcheng, the money that Jingying owes to the city households, we don't have any recruitment, so we will learn from you and challenge Jingying. Thinking about disgrace them, they can't save face, and they can pay back. ”
"Is the money coming back?"
"It's a fart, we just went to the door to challenge, saying that we wanted to compete with them, and hundreds of people rushed out of the barracks.
Marchand looked back, as if he had palpitations, and saw that no one was chasing after him, and his heart was a little relieved.
"Fortunately, I ran fast, and finally saved my life, Jia Rui, you really lack morality, what kind of challenge you are trumpeting, it is simply deadly."
Hahaha, Jia Rui couldn't hold back anymore, almost laughing and tears.
You said you two goods, so did the challenge come casually?
Jingying has always been arrogant, you just go there to challenge, aren't you dying yourself, who else will you beat if you don't beat you?
If Jingying was so easy to provoke, I would have gone a long time ago, and it would still be your turn?
Challenging Guozijian, that is pinching soft persimmons, knowing that they will not use force.
Cleaning up Li's guerrilla, it was the Chongwenmen tax supervisor who came forward and caught him.
He evaded taxes and moved the cake of the emperor and the big men in the court, Bing Jing and Tan Jing, and no one would give him a head.
Several other companies took the initiative to ask me to pay back because of the pressure of public opinion, the pressure of the emperor, and the fact that they couldn't guess my way, so they didn't know the bottom of their hearts.
You run to the gate of the house to kick the field, don't beat you and keep it for the New Year?
Although there are many successful models, not all of them can be replicated.
"Two, this is your scoundrel, and I didn't ask you to go, so I can't blame you for this."
"Don't blame you, who do you blame? Didn't they all learn from you? ”
The two were complaining, and Ni Er rode over.
"Uncle Rui, Master Xu has sent a message and told you to go to him immediately."
What's the matter, so anxious.
