Hearing this, Wu Yuan glanced at Jia Huan deeply, but he didn't say anything grateful, and after taking the pair of cards, he turned around and strode away.

Jia Huan didn't think it was wrong, dignified martial arts, what a character!

How can a small favor be impressed?

Moreover, Fang Cai Wuyuan had already sworn in front of Mrs. Fengsheng, and Jia Huan did not bother to do these small gestures of kindness.

It's just respect.

Jia Huan doesn't mind, it doesn't mean that Zhen Fu doesn't mind.

What he minded was that Wu Yuan was a character from Zhen's mansion, but he didn't understand the rules so much and lost his face.

Snorted heavily, Zhen Fu said coldly: "A vulgar martial artist who doesn't know how to be rude." ”

Jia Huan twitched the corners of his mouth on the side, but didn't say anything, smiled and haha, sparing this stubble.

……

Winter in Jinling is cold and damp.

Zhenfu is also located on the shore of Xuanwu Lake, with sufficient water vapor and naturally colder.

But in the big flower hall of Zhenfu, it is as warm as spring.

There are warm walls all around, and there are earth dragons burning underneath.

After walking in from the outside, you can see the famous flowers and precious grasses full of purple and red, and the windows are also made of glass, through the bright glass, you can overlook the beautiful scenery of the snow on the Purple Mountain and the fairy steamer on Xuanwu Lake.

In the midst of the flowers, there is a pavilion with a large round table full of delicacies.

Outside the railing outside the pavilion, there are two bamboo cases.

One is equipped with cups and wine utensils, and the other is equipped with tea whisks and tea cups.

There are two or three girls here who fan the stove to make tea, and a few other girls over there are also hot wine in the fan stove.

The maid only wears a small coat, but there is no charm on the side, and she does things carefully. But it adds a bit of charm.

After Zhen Fu entered the pavilion with Jia Huan, he sat down separately.

Jia Huan smiled: "Big brother." Just the two of us, we made these dishes. Where can I finish eating? ”

Zhen Fu was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled: "The third brother is really an elegant person, if there is no wonderful person to accompany him, it is not fragrant to come to eat." Haha, my brother had already expected it and prepared it in advance. ”

After that, he clapped his hands gently, and then saw four graceful girls suddenly walking out of an ear room on the side of the flower hall. Most of them are around sixteen or seventeen.

The posture is outstanding, but the demeanor only smiles lightly but there is no demonic spirit.

The four of them came from the depths of the hundred flowers, spared the winding path, came to the pavilion, bent down together, and the warbler said: "The slave family has seen the uncle, and the third master." ”

No, they even knew Jia Huan's identity.

Zhen Fu smiled extremely proudly and said, "The third brother's trip was originally to go to Yangzhou. Being a brother shouldn't have done anything else. But it's not for my brother to boast, or in Yangzhou, I have been looking for thousands of paintings in Slender West Lake, and it is difficult to find four beauties who are so good for my brother. The most authentic Yangzhou skinny horse. And the original is from a beautiful background, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and named after the four seasons. ”

Say it for yourself. Then he pointed to the four girls with a quiet smile on their faces and said, "This girl is Wangchun, don't look at her demure." But the line of Wang Youjun's writing is strong and powerful, and the pen is strong. Many Jiangnan calligraphy masters. I came to the door several times to ask to see, only for this female Mobao. If it weren't for that, it wouldn't be impossible to send her away for my brother......"

"This woman is Yuanqiu, oops, it's even more amazing. What did she guess she was best at? It's actually the Four Books of Scripture! Jiangnan is a cultural treasure, and the famous masters of the past dynasties have doubled. But this woman was able to argue with the famous masters for three days without being defeated, and she was impressed by countless scholars. To this day, I don't know how many famous scholars ask to see each other every day. If not, ahem, it's not impossible to send her away for my brother......"

The two daughters are Youxia and Lidong, and they are twin sisters. To be honest, I can't tell which of the two of them is Xia and who is Lidong. Both of them are good at playing the piano, but Lidong is also good at danqing, although not everyone, but also a little famous in the painting world.

These two people are the ones who sent the third brother for the elder brother. Third brother, you have to treat each other well, don't let down the good intentions of being a brother! ”

Zhen Fu smiled with a spring breeze on his face and said warmly.

The corners of Jia Huan's mouth twitched, he looked at the two identical girls standing in front of him, and said with a headache: "Big brother, what are you...... It's ......"

Before Jia Huan could speak, Zhen Fu waved his hand and said, "You and my brother, don't be polite, otherwise wouldn't it be a waste?" Besides, if you don't accept a gift to the third brother for the first time for your brother, won't you look down on your brother? ”

Jia Huan was speechless, blinked his eyes, and then smiled: "Then thank you for the kindness of the eldest brother." ”

Zhen Fu said happily: "Eh! That's right! Come on, come on, eat the vegetables quickly, don't get cold. When you come to Jinling, you must try our famous dish in Jinling, salted osmanthus duck. I Jinling is also known as the duck capital, because of this famous saltwater duck. ”

Jia Huan: "......"

……

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Zhen Fu was a little drunk, and with a bare face, he said to Jia Huan: "Third brother, don't hide it, it's a brother...... Returning the ...... for my brother There are still some things to ...... with the third brother Let's talk about it. ”

Jia Huan took the handkerchief handed by Li Dong or Youxia, wiped the corners of his mouth, and then a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "Big brother has something to do, just tell me." ”

"Okay, happy!"

Zhen Fu was overjoyed when he heard this, stroked his palm, shouted loudly, and then suppressed his voice and said seriously: "Third brother, you are not an outsider, and some words are not hidden for brothers...... My Zhen family is famous in Jiangnan. It is said that my family is the first in the south of the Yangtze River, and the gold and silver at home are like earth. But who really knows my family's suffering?

Alas, in order to welcome the holy car, the silver flowers flowed like the sea. But the saint is unwilling to bear a reputation of extravagance, and the silver can only be regarded as borrowed by my Zhen family from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Three or four million taels! How amazing?

Later, in order to repay the shortfall, the Emperor Taishang specially issued a grace to draw a part of the Jiangnan Yanzheng and my Zhen family to repay the deficit of the national treasury.

Originally, it was nothing, but it was good, and it will be paid off in another ten years.

Can...... But after your uncle came to Yangzhou, the salt tax distributed to my Zhen family every year was lower and lower year by year.

In the past two years, it has been reduced by more than half! ”

Jia Huan frowned and said, "Since it is the emperor's decree, why is my uncle...... Big brother, if it's inappropriate. Why don't you communicate with him? Furthermore, if it is still inappropriate. You can also go to the emperor. ”

Zhen Fu snorted and poured a sip of peach blossom wine into his mouth. Then he said hatefully: "It's not that I'm disrespectful, it's the length of the people behind my back." That Lin Ruhai is really a Longzheng one...... It's really his die-hard loyalist. I persuaded each other in every possible way, renewed my friendship, talked about the origin, and showed him the emperor's grace, but he still didn't get in. There is no way at all......

As for the emperor? Oh, only my ancestors and my uncle have this right. But my uncle never cared about these mundane things, and he didn't want to pay attention to them. As for the old ancestors. is even more strict to order the family to never send a letter to Duzhong in her name, otherwise, she will be expelled from the Zhen family. This kind of thing has happened before, who would dare? ”

Jia Huan was puzzled and said, "I don't know what the younger brother can do to help the eldest brother?" ”

Zhen Fu smiled and said: "First, I naturally hope that you can have a good talk with your uncle, it is reasonable, there is no reason to use my Zhen family as a raft." We don't want to reason with him. But he can't go too far, can he?

Second, hehe, I'm really embarrassed to say it for my brother, but it's just ......"

The corners of Jia Huan's mouth curled. said: "Although the eldest brother said it, as long as the younger brother can do it, he will definitely not refuse." ”

Zhen Fu heard this. His face was even more happy, and he said, "It's really hard to speak." However, because of the family's financial difficulties, I don't know how much money I spent for Na Wuyuan...... For the elder brother, he knows that the third brother has the skill of Tao Zhu. So I specially asked the third brother for advice.

Or the magic method of cement, or the magic method of glass, or the secret medicine of Donglaishun...... In short, hehe, I just ask the third brother for help. Of course, it's best to use the first two, if you open a restaurant, it's still slower after all.

Third brother, it's not that my brother is greedy and insufficient, it's just that my brother has also inquired about it, third brother, the sales area of your goods is roughly near the middle of the capital, and it has not gone south.

So, for my brother, this shouldn't be robbing the third brother's business, right? ”

When Jia Huan heard this, he nodded slowly and said with a smile: "I don't count...... However, eldest brother, the cement side has been handed over to the imperial court by my father, and my small workshop can only be produced in small quantities after the emperor's permission, after all, this is a matter of military affairs, and it must not be sloppy at all. The reason why it was only sold around Shenjing and didn't go out was because of this reason.

As for the glass recipe, the younger brother personally dedicated it to the emperor, and this recipe is already considered to be the emperor's, and the younger brother is not easy to teach and receive privately. However, with the relationship between Zhenfu and the Emperor Taishang, it is naturally not a problem to write a letter to the Emperor Taishang.

There is no problem with Donglaishun's secret recipe, and the eldest brother just needs to ask someone to ask for it. ”

When Zhen Fu heard this, his face was already displeased, and he said in a deep voice: "Didn't I already say it for my brother, the ancestor had already issued a strict order that the clansmen were not allowed to go to the emperor without permission, otherwise they would be severely punished." Third brother, for my brother, I don't ask you for money, you ...... Not to mention anything else, if it is really sold at a marked price, hum, if it is less than 500,000 taels of silver, I won't look at it for my brother. ”

Jia Huan smiled dumbly, nodded and said, "Yes...... In this way, glass art is still a rarity in Daqin, and for a long time in the future, it will be the exclusive franchise of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and it will be held in the form of auctions. The sale of the capital is in charge of the king of the nine counties. There will be goods coming from Jinling soon, and when the time comes, the Zhen family will be in charge, what do you think, big brother?

The cement can also be used as an example, it may not be much, but it is handed over to the eldest brother. ”

When Zhen Fu heard this, he hesitated and said, "This ...... Is there any money? ”

Jia Huan said with a smile: "Big brother, the most developed economic way is nothing more than monopoly and monopoly. I control the technology and the shipment, and you are in charge of the sales and take a cut of it. It is not difficult to make a profit of 200,000 taels a year. ”

Zhen Fu heard this, but he didn't have much joy, and his lowered eyes couldn't hide his greed.

With only a commission, he can make a profit of 200,000 taels a year, and if he controls the production and sales by himself, then ......

Isn't that more than a million a year?
