Chapter 32: A roundabout strategy to persuade Lai Sheng
Of course, the real reason for Jia Qing's leave was not because he wanted to go to Xifu to live, although it felt good to stay with those sisters with outstanding qualities, but he didn't want to be the same as Jia Baoyu after all, and in the end, when Wan Yan was sad, he could only cry silently......
Therefore, he has to struggle, he has to accumulate strength, and the accumulation can keep the strength of Jiafu! And the most important premise for accumulating strength is to have money!
With money, others will do things for you and work hard for you; With money, you can make it convenient for those who need money and are greedy for money; With money, you can make the people you care about live a prosperous life, and you can help those in need and make them in turn your own dependence.

And now, he is ready to make money, make a lot of money!
However, before that, you need to get the support of a person, and this person is called Lai Sheng.
That's right, it is Lai Sheng, this confidant of Jia Jing, who is a very important figure in the entire Jia family and the two mansions, managing hundreds of subordinates in Ning Guofu. However, Jia Qing has a certain degree of confidence in subduing Lai Sheng, and every time Lai Sheng sees him over the years, he is respectful and does not dare to slack off.
So he's sure. When he shows his will to him, even if he is not sincere, he will give some help in some things. There will be no idea of reporting to Jia Zhen, otherwise, with Jia Qing's status in Jia Jing's mind, if he offends Jia Qing, his life will definitely be very sad.
When he returned to Yipintang, he instructed a little girl to call Li Yan and Wang Shun to wait outside the second gate, and she simply cleaned up and set off.
After seeing Li Yan and the others, Jia Qing said: "Wang Shun, you go to find a random person on the street, and ask him to go to our house to spread the word, and say that there is a distinguished guest in the house of Chief Lai and ask Chief Manager Lai to go home to meet the guest." Remember, you can't leave flaws and handles. After that, go to the west corner gate of Rongguo Mansion and wait for us. ”
Wang Shun glanced at Jia Qing and the others, but didn't dare to ask, so he left the house first.
After that, Jia Qing took Li Yan from the east corner gate of Rongguo Mansion into Rongguo Mansion.
The disciples of Rongguo Mansion had already received orders from above, and the second master of Qing could enter and leave Rongguo Mansion freely, so Jia Qing was not hindered in any way. Walk along the outer courtyard of Rongguo Mansion, turn a door, and exit Rongguo Mansion from the west corner gate of Rongguo Mansion.
It's not that Jia Qing is doing more, for the sake of insurance, the less people know about him going to see Lai Sheng, the better. Moreover, Jia Qing didn't know if Jia Zhen had arranged for someone to follow him.
After meeting with Wang Shun, Jia Qing and the three of them waited on the way home for Lai Sheng.
After a while, I saw Lai Sheng coming in a hurry. Jia Qing and the others hurriedly walked over and blocked Lai Sheng's way.
"The old slave has seen the second master."
When Lai Sheng saw that the person who stopped in front of him was Jia Qing, he was taken aback, and hurriedly saluted.
Jia Qing was even happier when he saw that Lai Sheng was the only one, and said, "Such a coincidence, Manager Lai, why don't I invite you to a cup of tea?" ”
"Thank you for the kindness of the second master, but there is a distinguished guest at home, and the mother calls back to entertain the guests, so I can only thank the second master for his kindness. Next time, the old slave must ask the second master to make amends to the second master once. ”
"Oh? Aren't you just around the corner? Jia Qing said jokingly, and then kept watching Lai Sheng's reaction.
Lai Sheng was stunned at first, and then his face was cloudy, but in the end, they all turned into a touch of relief.
"So thank you for the kindness of the second master, please!" As he spoke, the man had stepped aside.
Jia Qing laughed, this Lai Sheng is really a smart person, and it is a very pleasant thing to talk to a smart person.
So Jia Qing took the lead, followed by Lai Sheng, and finally Li Yan, and the four of them walked towards the nearest teahouse together.
After entering a private room, Jia Qing sat down first, and after ordering the three of them to sit down as well, he didn't go around the bend, and asked directly: "Who does Manager Lai think I and my eldest brother can support Ning Guofu, keep the foundation of my Jia family, and even expand the territory?" ”
Hearing that Li Yan and the others were a little uneasy, Jia Qing had never told them about his ambitions, and now they were a little nervous when they heard that Jia Qing had the intention to fight for power.
Lai Sheng didn't, Jia Qing's more and more excellent performance over the years, coupled with Jia Jing's love, he didn't think about this problem, but there was no way, Jia Qing was born too late, how could this primogeniture inheritance system be so easy to shake? So he slowly spoke: "The second master and Uncle Zhen are both dragons and phoenixes among people, and any one of them can keep the foundation of the Jia family, which is really the blessing of my Jia Mansion." ”
Jia Qing was a little dissatisfied, this Lai Sheng actually wanted to give him a "golden mean for a minister", he wouldn't give him a chance.
looked at Lai Sheng with his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I said the above three, why should Mr. Lai fool me?" ”
Lai Sheng said with some hesitation when he heard this: "Why should the second master force the old slave, how dare I open my mouth for this kind of thing, it is all decided by the master's words." ”
"Hehe, of course I know that this matter is decided by the master, and I don't dare to interfere with the master's thoughts, but now I want to ask the opinion of the chief manager.
Although Mr. Lai can rest assured, there are only four of us here. Since Wang Shun and Li Yan dare to bring them here, it means that they have absolutely trusted, and Mr. Lai can say it bluntly. ”
When Li Yan and the others next to them heard this, they were moved, and their faces showed resolute expressions of the death of those who were confidants. It made Lai Sheng believe Jia Qing's words.
Looking at Jia Qing's serious expression and being silent for a while, Lai Sheng said slowly: "Since this is the case, then I will also say it openly and honestly, in fact, the performance of the second master over the years is also in the eyes of the old slave, if you want to talk about the old slave's opinion, in fact, I value the second master more." However, the old slave's opinion was useless, and the old slave did not dare to give the second master any help against the master's will. The second master came to find the old slave today, but I am afraid that he is doing useless work.
In fact, as long as the second master can get the approval of the lord and let the lord pass on the position of patriarch to you, then why not hand over this small half of the old slave's life to the second master in the future? ”
Isn't this nonsense? I can let Jia Jing pass on the throne to me, why am I still coming to you? However, Lai Sheng can say this, Jia Qing is still quite satisfied, at least he will feel a lot more relieved to use it in the future.
It seems that after persuading Lai Sheng to change his strategy, and after sorting out his thoughts, Jia Qing said: "Does Chief Lai know why the old man is obviously good, but he has not handed over the position of patriarch to my eldest brother for a long time?" Mr. Lai doesn't need to deny it, it's nothing more than my eldest brother who reassures the master, worried that he won't be able to support the whole family. And the lord has loved me so much all these years, but he has never mentioned what is the reason why he wants me to take the title and serve as the patriarch, does Mr. Lai know? Hehe, I think it's nothing more than the following three points, is Mr. Lai willing to listen to them? ”
Lai Sheng nodded and motioned for Jia Qing to continue.
"First, my eldest brother is the son of Mrs. Xianningguo, and he is the eldest son according to the law. And I'm a concubine, does Mr. Lai think so? ”
Lai Sheng was a little embarrassed, it was not good to be said by others to be a concubine, but who knew that the second master in front of him said it himself, but he still nodded.
"I thought it was just a stub. Since ancient times, in addition to Liyan, there is also a saying of Lixian. My eldest brother eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles, and has everything, so naturally he can't talk about the word virtuous, so this article can be ignored. ”
Without giving a chance to object, Jia Qing continued: "Second, my eldest brother is almost forty years old now, if I am allowed to attack the knight, my eldest brother will definitely not accept it, maybe there will be a tragic incident of the brother's wall, and the master will definitely not want to do this!" ”
Lai Sheng nodded again, indeed, Jia Jing definitely didn't want his two sons to become enemies.
"However, over the years, I have become more and more loved by my lord, and my eldest brother's dissatisfaction is a foregone conclusion, not to mention that I still have the intention of winning the position of the head of the family. With my eldest brother's heart, how can I get out of it with my whole body? In this case, how can there be a sense of brotherly harmony?
The only difference is that if I attack the knight, not only will the Ning Guofu benefit, but the entire Jia family will benefit, but I can also place the eldest brother in the good life, and even let him live in the Ning Guofu and treat him as a brother! And my eldest brother, does he have such ability and heart?
Therefore, this does not constitute a condition for my father to give up on me, and the most important thing is the third point! ”
Lai Sheng originally had something to say, but when he heard Jia Qing say this, he had to suppress it and listen to the third most important point in Jia Qing's mouth.
"Thirdly, I am less than eight years old this year, which determines that I have not mastered the persuasiveness of a large family. In that case, the whole family may lose faster, and this is the real reason why my father did not pass on the title to me.
In this way, my eldest brother and I both have concerns, so it is difficult to choose! ”
Seeing Jia Qing's words, he analyzed the originally complex problem into an age problem, no matter whether there was any unreasonableness in it, this powerful logical analysis ability alone was enough to show that his vision was not wrong, Jia Qing was indeed more suitable for power than Uncle Zhen.
He now wanted to know what kind of method Jia Qing would use to solve the problem at this age.
"Since the second master said so, is there a way to solve this concern of the master?"
"Of course! I have asked for the support of my lord, and he promised that I would wait until I get married to consider retiring......"
Jia Qing used a little trick, and when he said this, he created an illusion: Jia Jing intended to wait for Jia Qing to grow up, and then pass on the throne to him. Lai Sheng didn't know that Jia Jing just wanted to watch Jia Qing grow up and start a family, but he didn't say that he would pass on the throne to him.
Sure enough, Lai Sheng asked, "Is that really what the master said?" In that case, it is necessary for him to choose a position.
"I don't dare to talk nonsense about this, this is what the master said to me personally today, and the master also promised to give me a three-month vacation, so that I can study seriously in the future and get to know my classmates and teachers to help!"
Zi, it seems that this is the case, the old man still values the second master more in his heart! When the uncle dropped out of school from the national prison, the master was quite dissatisfied, but he did not persecute the uncle anymore, so it seems that the master pinned this hope on the second master......
Seeing that Lai Sheng was taken by himself to think, he continued: "Therefore, Manager Lai should love to help me, so that I can have the ability to take charge of myself as soon as possible and make some achievements, so that I naturally don't have to wait until I get married, and the master can unload the burden in advance, and ask the immortals according to his own heart, isn't it also Manager Lai who has slightly repaid the favor of the master?" ”
