Chapter 86: Something Strange
"I only learned today that a pound of cotton is not the same weight as a pound of pig iron, thank you Miss Miaoyu for your advice."
After Jia Rui finished speaking, he walked out, but Miaoyu didn't react yet.
"You're welcome, you know."
"Ahh
Zijuan suddenly screamed.
"Zijuan, what's wrong?"
Daiyu didn't think about it, and naturally she didn't realize Miaoyu's mistake.
"Miss, a pound of cotton and a pound of pig iron seem to weigh the same, right?"
Yes?
Daiyu and Miaoyu finally understood and looked at each other.
"Jia Rui, you villain, there is such an insidious problem, you come back to me."
Miaoyu almost jumped up, and when Daiyu saw it, Gege laughed, rolling around holding her stomach, almost out of breath.
"You're a dead hoof, you're here to make fun of me, and see how I clean you up."
Miaoyu went up, and she rolled into a ball with Daiyu.
"Good sister, don't dare, spare me."
Miaoyu was still angry, and fought for a while before stopping.
"Hao'er, you just learned badly from that Jia Rui."
"Sister Miaoyu, don't worry, I haven't learned badly. Big Brother Rui is not a bad person. ”
"Hmph, such a sinister villain is not a bad person. Be careful. lest he sell you in the future, and you will help her count the money. ”
Miaoyu was a temporary idea, the two of them laughed for a while, and didn't mention the business again, so they went to the second floor to drink tea.
Seeing Jia Rui, Miaoyu glared at him fiercely and ignored him anymore.
Originally, he planned to go directly to the Lin family in Suzhou, but because of Daiyu's investment, Jia Rui temporarily decided to go to Jiajiaying in Wangjiang County.
Since she told Daiyu about shipbuilding, it is best to let her see the shipyard of Jiajiaying with her own eyes. In this way, Daiyu will also be more confident.
When everyone heard about going to the place where the Jia family used to build a ship, they did not object.
At the end of the Shen period, he arrived in Wangjiang County.
Because there were many people, and most of them were female dependents, worried about the inconvenience of food and lodging in Jia's camp, Jia Rui decided to go to Hu Xingshan's house first.
The Hu family is a wealthy local businessman and is qualified to receive this group of people. After arriving, the Hu family saw Daiyu and Miaoyu, fairy-like ladies, and felt honored.
I took out some of the things I bought in Jinling as a gift, and stayed at Hu's house.
Seeing that Jia Rui was here again, Hu Xingshan was very happy and naturally warmly received.
He lived in Hu's house that night, and the next day Jia Rui went to Jia's camp first, and arranged with Jia Xuan, Jia Yu, and Jia Lin brothers, before coming back to take Daiyu and others to the shipyard to visit.
Mama Wang knows a little about what happened to Rong Guogong here back then. When Jia Yan explained to everyone, Mama Wang interjected from time to time and added a few words.
Jia Rui gave Daiyu a look, and Daiyu gradually fell behind. The two distanced themselves from the others slightly.
"Miss Lin, the shipbuilding I told you about is going to be built here. I've already found a craftsman, and I'll start next month. In about a few months, the first ship will be built. ”
"If you have a ship, you have to go to sea to do business, you can reach the South Sea in the south, Dongying in the east, and Silla in the north."
"I've already planned, this time I'll leave Brother Yun here to supervise the shipbuilding, and Brother Yun will be in charge of the maritime business in the future."
"If the business goes well, you and I can each have about 20,000 taels of silver per year."
"Since Brother Rui has already prepared, I am even more relieved. When I go back in the evening, I will ask Zijuan to give you 100,000 taels of silver tickets. ”
It turns out that Brother Rui has long had a shipbuilding strategy, he always does things with a plan and moves, and he is very disciplined, it seems that this time it is right to partner with him.
At least 20,000 taels of silver will be credited to the account a year, plus the remaining money in your hand, you don't have to worry about spending money in the future, and you don't have to look at other people's eyes.
Even the money that was placed in the ancestors could not be returned, and with this money, it was enough to live in peace.
"You and I do business. Miss Lin still tries to keep it as secret as possible, and the fewer people who know, the better. ”
"Brother Rui, don't worry, only me and Zijuan know about this matter. Even Mama Wang and Snow Goose didn't tell them. Sister Miaoyu, I also told her, and she said that she wouldn't tell others. ”
The little girl is still very smart, and she didn't wait for me to tell her, and she knew to take confidentiality measures.
"There are a lot of houses here, and I plan to ask Jia Yun to pack some up. If Miss Lin doesn't like staying in the house in the future, or the old house in Suzhou, or here, she can come over to relax. and so that you may not be depressed in the house. ”
"Anyway, if you have money in your hand, you can take a trip at any time. Life is not just about living around, it's also about poetry and distance. ”
This chicken soup for the soul should be more practical for people like Daiyu who like petty bourgeoisie.
Sure enough, Daiyu has a sense of bosom friend.
"I didn't expect Brother Rui to have such a taste. In the past, I underestimated Brother Rui, and asked Brother Rui not to be surprised. ”
"It's okay, Miss Lin doesn't have to take it to heart."
It used to be that Jia Rui, how can it be compared to the current Jia Rui? Don't say it's you, even I look down on the former Jia Rui.
However, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with that Jarry.
His mistake was to fall in love with someone he shouldn't like.
Seeing that Jia Rui and Daiyu were left behind, Miaoyu turned back again.
"What are you talking about?"
Jia Rui couldn't help but have a headache.
Miaoyu, you are a dead girl, why are you also a lady, don't you know how to respect other people's privacy?
"Oh, didn't say anything. I gave Miss Lin a question? ”
"Jia Rui, what problem do you have to calculate people?"
As soon as Miaoyu heard the question, she remembered the question of cotton and pig iron yesterday.
"The topic this time is, Miss Lin, you and Zijuan fell into the pond, but the shoes are not wet, why is that?"
Why is this kind of problem again?
This time, Miaoyu learned to be obedient, although she was thinking about the answer in her heart, but she just didn't say it easily.
Daiyu was also thinking about it, and she didn't understand it for a while.
But Zijuan figured it out.
"Uncle Rui, is it because there is no water in the pond?"
Even Jia Rui was taken aback.
is really worthy of Hui Zijuan, her brain is so flexible.
Whether a person is smart or not is not directly related to how many books he reads.
The wisdom of the working people at the bottom is much more clever than that of a parasite like Miaoyu.
This is the so-called lowly who are the smartest, ******.
"Miss Purple Juan is really smart, much better than some people who read poetry and books. You're right, that's it. ”
After Jia Rui finished speaking, he hurried away.
Miaoyu glared angrily again.
Damn Jarry, it's all about these shady topics.
Villain, villain, villain!
Scumbag, scumbag, scumbag!
Daiyu Gege smiled, almost unable to breathe, and Zijuan hurriedly helped beat her back.
"Feng'er, who the hell are you from, and you actually helped him laugh at me?"
Miaoyu snorted.
"Sister, I didn't laugh at you, I just thought Brother Rui's topics were very interesting."
"By the way, Hao'er, where did you say Jia Rui got these strange questions? Why do I think he is a little different from others? Talking and doing things seem a little weird everywhere? ”
"Nothing strange."
Daiyu really didn't think there was anything strange about Jia Rui.
"Why isn't it strange? First of all, the reading of Wenchang Xingjun's sentence, and then what Arabic numerals of yours, are they so different, isn't it strange? ”
This time, Daiyu woke up.
Also, Brother Rui is indeed a little strange. Could it be that he is really a disciple of Wenchang Xingjun?
