Chapter 032: Little Lord
Young Master Jia felt very aggrieved, he finally caught a flower thief, why was he chased and beaten by his father inexplicably, and on the other side, Mrs. Jia was sincerely afraid and hurriedly untied the hemp rope on Zhao Jia's body in person.
Master Jia chased after his unsuccessful son for a long time, tired and out of breath, and then came to Zhao Jia's side and said with a smile: "Lord is fine, my son of a scumbag is messing around, I didn't hurt you." ”
Zhao Jia threw away the hemp rope on his body, and said casually: "Forget it, it's not fun at all, I originally wanted to pretend to be a subordinate to come to your house to play for two days, but I was arrested as a thief." ”
When Master Jia heard that Zhao Jia was not to blame, his old face was flat, and he shouted angrily at Young Master Jia: "Son, don't get here, this is your eldest cousin, and he is also the lord of General Zhao's Mansion in Taichang County, you are too bold, fortunately, the little lord did not blame, hurry up and make amends to the little lord." ”
Young Master Jia's face turned pale, what is the situation, when will a lord come out, but now that Daddy has spoken, Young Master Jia knelt down and said, "Thank you little lord for not blaming him." ”
Zhao Jia waved his hand and said, "Get up, my father told me to come to visit the second elder, saying that I haven't moved around for many years, we are all relatives, why are you going out like this." ”
Master Jia and Mrs. Jia suddenly relaxed a lot, although Jiafu is the home of the rich Jia in Taichang County, but it has always been divided into status levels by Shinong and industrialists, there is no doubt that businessmen were the lowest in ancient times, and Zhao Mansion is different, Zhao Jiameng ancestor Yin De, hereditary General Zhaoxin from the title of Liupin, only one level smaller than Zhixian, and Taichang County really holds the military power but General Zhao's Mansion, so even the prefect usually has to give Zhao Mansion some face, and his son actually tied up General Zhao's only baby son as a thief, How is this great, although Jia Mansion has some kinship with Zhao Mansion, but it has not been moving for many years, who would have thought that General Zhao would let his son come to visit.
At this time, it was not only Young Master Jia who was sweating, Li Wencai shrank in a corner of the hall, and when he saw that the situation was not right, Zhao Jia was hiding so deeply, it turned out to be an out-and-out second generation official, and now while the situation was still chaotic, Li Wencai was ready to slip away quietly.
"Brother Wencai, we are such good brothers, why are you in a hurry to leave." Zhao Jia seemed to have calculated that Li Wencai would take the opportunity to escape, and at this moment Li Wen had just raised his foot, only to see Zhao Jia with his hands on his hips, and said with a wicked smile at Li Wencai.
Li Wencai suddenly felt that Zhao Jia was too evil, you said that you are not cheap, there are so many beautiful maids and slaves in General Zhao's mansion, you don't go to peep, but go to the Qinglou to squat at the root of the wall, you like the maids in Jia's mansion, you just come blatantly, you have to pretend to be a subordinate, just a bastard who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger.
Although Li Wencai secretly scolded Zhao Jia in his heart, he had already smiled on his face, pointed to the door and said: "Urgency, if you don't go, you won't be able to hold back." ”
"Come on, take down this traitor for me." Zhao Jia picked at his nose and commanded casually.
Knowing Zhao Jia's identity, where did the few minions next to him dare to slack off, they rushed up and pressed Li Wencai's grip firmly in front of Zhao Jia.
Zhao Jia was very proud, and he looked like a villain, and now when he saw Li Wencai being pressed in front of him, he asked with his nostrils facing the sky: "You traitor, who will report your name?" ”
Li Wencai was speechless, this thing can really pretend to be forced, so he said with a bitter face: "Back to the adult, the little one is called Li Wencai, the family lives in Liuzhuang, and there are old and young ...... in the family."
"Stop, stop, did I ask you this? Do you know what sin you have committed? Zhao Jia learned the tone of the county order and interrogated.
"The little one offended the adult, and he really deserved to die." Li Wencai was also very helpless, seeing this thing pretending to be so forced, he really had the urge to beat people, and there was no way for anyone to let this kid and villain get his will.
"Just know, come on, pull this kid to fight twenty as a small punishment." Zhao Jia is very resentful, and Li Wencai remembers the hatred of the black hand behind his back very clearly.
"Damn, you're still playing for real." Li Wencai wailed, and several slaves dragged Li Wencai to walk with his staff.
After cleaning up Li Wencai, Zhao Jia was satisfied, and sat on the chair with a swagger, at this time, Master Jia hurriedly asked someone to bring tea and asked, "Do you know the subordinate just now?" ”
Zhao Jia said with a smile on his face: "This is my classmate and friend in the academy, we are ......"
Zhao Jia originally wanted to say that he and Li Wencai met under the wall of the Qinglou, but he felt a little indecent, so he changed the topic and said: "Uncle cousin, in fact, my visit this time is really a little trivial. ”
Master Jia has been trading for half his life, and knows that Zhao Mansion has not had anything to do with Jia Mansion for many years, and this time he suddenly asked Zhao Jia to come, and there is something wrong with Bacheng, but Master Jia thinks this is a good thing, after all, General Zhao can let his son come to visit to show that he still remembers himself, so he asked with a smile: "We are relatives, just say what you have to do." ”
"Don't hide it from your cousin, you should have heard that the anti-thief Li Yinglong raised troops in Sichuan, and now one of his troops has attacked the town fifty miles outside Taichang County, the emperor ordered my father to lead the troops to Chishui City fifty miles away to block it, this is a fatal thing, if the anti-thief captures the danger of Chishui City, then our Taichang County will be dangerous."
Master Jia's face is serious, this matter is indeed very important, the anti-thief Li Yinglong conspired against the imperial court, led tens of thousands of people, like a bamboo, now the vanguard has attacked Chishui City outside Taichang County, and is close to Yingtianfu, Master Jia is a businessman, and he is most concerned about his own business, and now the war is together, but he has suffered a lot of losses, so Master Jia is also very concerned about this matter, and now Zhao Jia proposed this matter, Master Jia nodded and said: "You are right, I have heard about this matter, if Taichang County encounters war, I'm losing a lot of money. ”
Zhao Jia Yixi, it seems that Master Jia understands things very well, so he doesn't have to waste so many words, so he said: "My cousin also knows the key to it, and now the army is running out of food and grass in front, so my father has no choice but to ask me if my cousin can fund some grain and grass, so that the soldiers can kill the enemy." ”
Master Jia had almost guessed the purpose of Zhao Jia's coming, and couldn't help rolling his eyes, couldn't the imperial court even afford to pay military rations, and it still needed to be drawn from the people, but Master Jia still said with a smile: "Actually, this is all right, the soldiers are all to protect our city, and they should contribute money and efforts." ”
Master Jia paused and asked cautiously: "I don't know how much I need, in fact, I have a lot of deficit in my house now, and I can't take out too much." ”
Zhao Jia stretched out a palm and shook it, Master Jia glanced at it and said happily: "Five hundred taels?" ”
"Five thousand taels, this number can't be considered much, the master of the Sun Mansion took 10,000 taels, at that time, my father sent troops to his house, we are relatives and it is easy to talk." Zhao Jia asked for five thousand taels when he opened his mouth, and his face didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Master Jia was in a cold sweat, this soldier is no different from a bandit, this is a clear robbery, this kid will fly with five thousand taels of silver, this is too ruthless.
"No problem, I'll let the housekeeper give you the silver, I don't know if the little lord wants to stay in my house for a few days, this matter should be very important, right?" Master Jia actually wants Zhao Jia to leave quickly, otherwise he may have to open his mouth again to ask for silver.
As soon as Zhao Jia heard that Master Jia wanted to keep him, he nodded happily and said, "I have this intention, I heard that the scenery in my cousin's house is very beautiful, and the girl is even more beautiful, so I ......"
"Gee, I just want to enjoy the scenery." Zhao Jia felt that he had leaked his mouth the fastest, so he shook his fan and said casually.
Master Jia was very helpless, and he didn't know what General Zhao thought, so he let such an idler run an errand, looking at his leisurely appearance, he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
Master Jia smiled: "The little lord is here to walk around, although my Jia Mansion is not as good as the Zhao Mansion, but there are still some unique beauties, let someone take you around another day." ”
