Chapter 632: Chen Shou is suspicious

The avenue leading to the outside of the North City is wide and flat.

When a group of luxury carriages from Jiafu went straight out of the avenue in the middle of the city gate, it attracted the envious eyes of the people queuing up to enter and leave the city on both sides.

"You kid, got sores under your buttocks?"

Jia Qing sat in the carriage, looked at Jia Yun on the opposite side and twisted his buttocks, and scolded with a smile. In the Grand View Garden, he didn't do anything to Ping'er in the end, he just simply teased her.

Today, he is going to take a look at the winery in the north of the city. No, it may no longer be appropriate to call it a winery, but after another year of development, it is now appropriate to describe it as a winery.

The people who traveled with him, in addition to him and Jia Yun, also included Yang Xu and Chen Shou, who were sitting in another carriage. Chen Shou was fooled by him.

He wants Chen Shou to see his strength!

"Hehe......" Facing Jia Qing's ridicule, Jia Yun had no choice but to smile to hide her embarrassment. Sitting face-to-face with Jia Qing like this, he was a little uncomfortable.

Jia Qing also smiled, suddenly straightened up, and said, "How did the incident I explained going?" ”

As soon as Jia Yun heard Jia Qing ask about business, she immediately changed to another person, and immediately became respectful. He knew that Jia Qing was not asking about the business in the south, because he had reported these to Jia Qing a few days ago......

"According to the second uncle's instructions, I have already transferred the factory out of Nanjing, in a place called Mawan in Lingxian County, which is hidden enough, and I did not use the name of our Jia family, but in the name of a local rich businessman, circled the entire Mawan, and secretly built a base on the small island in the middle.

Mawan is almost uninhabited within a radius of ten miles, and if you take 10,000 steps back, even if you are really discovered, your nephew has also arranged the means to destroy it in one fell swoop, and there is definitely no problem with the fact that the second uncle must be hidden! ”

Jia Qing listened and nodded. Obviously, Jia Yun knew what he cared about the most, and he had already finished talking in advance.

The factory that Jia Yun said could not be such as a food processing factory...... Rather, the arsenal!

This idea came to him as early as after the Golden Retriever Prince gave him a Russian collector's edition of the firearm and compared it with the firearms of the national dynasty.

Of course, he is not going to equip any troops now. He has no power in his hands, no soldiers, what he has to do is to research the technology and make samples first! Once it is used in the future, it can be quickly manufactured in batches.

The Great Chu Imperial Court really didn't pay enough attention to firearms, so Jia Qing could easily recruit some retired craftsmen who knew firearms! In addition, Jia Zheng is still a member of the Ministry of Labor, and it is not too easy to get information and talents in this area.

In the past two years, he has sent more than a dozen people to Nanjing.

"Well, the stakes are high, so be careful! But don't worry too much, we're not going to rebel, you just need to treat it as a money-making business.

In this way, after a while, I will ask the imperial court to replace the county order of Jinling Ling County with one of our reliable people, in this case, do you think there are any doubts? ”

Jia Yun smiled: "If this is the case, it will be absolutely foolproof." ”

Ling County is just a small and remote county, and once the county order is changed, it won't be long before it can be used as their own territory. It's just that Jia Yun still has a doubt:

"Speaking of the second uncle, there are many firearms in the Ministry of Labor, and it is said that every year the Ministry of War reimburses the military equipment, but it is not wanted. So the Ministry of Industry doesn't make firearms very much, if the second uncle is interested in this, it's still easy to spend some silver to get a batch out, why bother us to get this ourselves? With this in mind, it is better to build two more wineries and earn more silver......

"Hmph, I don't know what you're talking about? Forget it, you'll understand later, just do what I say first. ”

"Yes......" Jia Yun was not annoyed by the despise, and still replied with a smile.

For such a simple and obedient Jia Yun, Jia Qing sighed in his heart. Suddenly remembering something, he asked him, "How many years has your father died?" ”

Jia Yun was stunned for a moment and said, "It's been about ten years......

It's been ten years, so to speak, at that time, Jia Yun was only eight or nine years old. Her mother has always been sick, no wonder Jia Yun is much more mature and sensible than all the children of Jiafu he has ever seen.

Stress makes precocious people.

"I remember that there shouldn't be many people in your room, right?"

"Well, there are two or three more households, but from my grandfather's count, I'm the only one."

Jia Qing thought for a while and said: "That's the case, you also know that now the population of our big house is withering, except for me, there is only Brother Rong." You also know that he looks like that, it's useless, so I'm going to choose a suitable person in the clan to carry the sect and put it in my name, I don't know if you're willing? ”

"This ...... Yikes! ”

Jia Yun stood up suddenly, forgetting that this was in the carriage, and he was taller, and when he got up, a "bang" sounded on his head.

But he didn't care about the pain, and immediately knelt down for Jia Qing: "Child, knock on your father." ”

Knock knock, three knocks will be over, for fear that Jia Qing will regret it.

"Hehehe"

Jia Qing smiled. This kid thought he had become more stable, but he didn't expect that this sleek momentum had never changed!

"Alright, get up. After I return to this matter, I will inform the elders of all the clans, and when the time comes, I will ask them to testify, and I will officially carry you into the genealogy of the big house. When you go back, you have to counsel with your mother, and you can't contradict it, you know. ”

"The child understands, but the mother would be happy if she knew the news."

Jia Yun was already smiling from ear to ear.

Jia Qing looked at this son who was older than himself, and felt a little emotional. Once upon a time, I didn't feel weird at all about having such an eldest son, is it really old?

"Okay, but it's better if you call me second uncle in the future, and I'll get used to it."

Jia Yun said: "The words of the second uncle." ”

Jia Qing nodded, and said, "By the way, how much do you know about the situation on your Aunt Xian'er's side?" ”

"Huh? Oh, this ...... Aunt Xian'er contacted me once in total, asking me to hand over Xunfeng's power in Hangzhou to her, and I don't know what to do. ”

"Hangzhou ......," Jia Qing muttered. This Wu Xian'er has been in Jiangnan for more than half a year, and she has never been able to call back.

Jia Yun looked at Jia Qing's face and hesitated: "Second uncle, do you still remember that Hangzhou is the helmsman of the Cao Gang...... As far as I know, Aunt Xian'er seems to have been very close to the Cao Gang in the past six months......"

Jia Qing narrowed his eyes. As for Wu Xian'er's whereabouts, he naturally couldn't be ignorant. also vaguely guessed the purpose of her stay in Hangzhou.

Woo the Cao Gang......

This is not in Jia Qing's current plan. After all, the Cao Gang is no better than the Salt Gang, and the Cao Gang has a good reputation among the people, and it is an organization recognized by the government, that is, it is a legal existence.

This girl is making her own decisions again!

The reason why she went to Jiangnan at the beginning was to integrate the old department of the White Lotus Sect and avoid causing trouble. Now it seems that she must have almost done this, but she refuses to come back, which is really not worrying.

The carriage traveled slowly, and in less than half an hour, you could see the winery in the north of the city.

"Brother Jia......"

As soon as Jia Qing jumped out of the carriage, he saw Chao Chao and led someone to meet him. Jia Qing was displeased, and said, "Brother Chao, how many times have you said it, every time you come here, are you deliberately losing my face?" ”

Chao Chao had expected what Jia Qing would say, and smiled: "In Gongyangong, you are the owner, how can I not come out to greet you." ”

Jia Qing couldn't say anything more.

Later, Yang Xu and Chen Shou also got out of the car one after another, and they looked at the scene in front of them for the first time.

Miles of brick and stone tiles can be seen faintly inside. It was surrounded on all sides, and although it was not high, it was winding up, at least ten miles long. The whole scene looks like a small city!

Where had the two of them seen such a scene, and they both watched it for a while.

Yang Xu said: "Second master, this is the small wine shop you are talking about?" It's all brewing? Is this a small deal? ”

Chao Chao was going to talk to Jia Qing, but when he saw that the two of them could get off the carriage and had a good bearing, he thought that Jia Qing had invited him to observe. Therefore, he smiled and said: "This brother Taijian smiled, this is a winery, and it is naturally full of winemaking." ”

Yang Xu exclaimed: "In such a big place, how much wine does it have to be brewed in a year......

Jia Qing said with a smile: "Brother Shihong doesn't have to sigh, although the place is bigger, but many of them have not been used for the time being, and now, only the middle third of the place is in use, and the rest of the place is still deserted." ”

After Chen Shou got out of the car, he pondered silently, and said at this time: "Even so, the wine produced every year cannot be remembered......

I've also seen a few wineries from winemakers, the largest of which is not even a tenth of this one! Tens of thousands of jars of wine can be brewed every year. If you calculate the size of this place, wouldn't you be able to brew hundreds of thousands of jars of wine in a year? ”

Chen Shou suddenly looked at Jia Qing: "With the dignity of Jiafu, there is no shortage of money to use, but Jia Linlang has spent so much financial and material resources to build such a large winery that may not have existed in ancient times and in the future, is it just to make more silver?" ”

There was scrutiny in Chen Shou's eyes. He wasn't ignorant of Tao Zhu's art either. After a simple calculation, even if the price of ordinary wine on the market is recorded, a jar of wine costs five dollars of silver, hundreds of thousands of jars, that is at least three or four hundred thousand taels of silver, and after deducting all the capital, you can earn at least one or two hundred thousand taels of silver.

That's just a year's worth of ......

Moreover, it is said that this is only one of the properties under Jia Qing's name!

Jia Qing, what do you want to do?

Chen Shou couldn't help but fall into conjecture.

Unlike later generations, making money may be just for the sake of making money. In this era, money and ambition can often be linked......

He has been the chief staff member of the Prince's Mansion for so many years, so he naturally understands the power of money.

Could it be that Jia Fu is interested in descendants?

Thinking about it, Chen Shou only thought of this. After all, there is a noble concubine in Jiafu, which is known throughout the capital.

In addition, when today's son, the rear position has been empty for a long time.

As long as there is enough silver in Jiafu, it will naturally be much easier for Jia Guifei Niangniang to ascend to that position.
