Chapter Ninety-Nine: A Thoughtful Gift

A title deed for the Imperial Village outside the city!

A deed to a time-honored pharmacy in Beijing!

A deed of a paper workshop in Beijing!

A pair of jade, a jade Ruyi;

And a thousand taels of silver tickets!

This is the thank you gift given by Si Ding, the prince of the king of Chu, and the value is amazing!

What satisfies Jia Cong the most is that these gifts are given for his own situation, and they can all come in handy.

Not to mention Huangzhuang, being located on the outskirts of the city is the foundation of a family that money can't buy.

And once it is given away, it is ten thousand acres, and it is also a great asset in Rongguo Mansion.

With the popularity and promotion of the "Tale of the Three Kingdoms", whether it is the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" script or the commentary version, the sales have been steadily rising.

Not to mention the expansion of the bookstore, the amount of paper required for the printing workshop alone is a large amount.

This is not the era of industrialization, and the papermaking workshops are controlled by certain forces, and no one knows whether they will rely on the source of the paper in their hands to make a fuss.

Fortunately, the prince of Chu sent a paper-making workshop, saving the biggest worry about the continued expansion of the Huiyou bookstore.

And the prince of Chu made a move, how could it be simple?

It is estimated that the paper workshop will be able to make several precious papers on the market, such as rice paper.

It can only be said that Si Ding, the prince of the king of Chu, is indeed a person with a heart!

As for the time-honored pharmacy in Beijing in the gift, it is estimated that it is also based on Jia Cong's martial arts, thinking that he has martial arts, and the existence of the time-honored pharmacy can help Jia Cong better practice martial arts.

Isn't there a saying called 'poor literature and rich martial arts', if you want to practice martial arts, you naturally need a lot of medicinal materials to assist, at least this is the martial arts training environment in Daqing.

Otherwise, there is a risk that there will be problems with the practice!

With the energy of the prince of Chu, it is very simple to find out Jia Cong's status and situation in Rongguo Mansion, he may think that Jia Cong has no resources at hand except for the Huiyou Bookstore, so he kindly gives a time-honored pharmacy.

Jia Cong accepted this intention.

As for jade bi and jade ruyi, they are all things that the powerful people play with, and they are naturally very precious when they are precious, and they are like that if they are not precious.

The last 1,000 taels of silver tickets were also a lot of help to Jia Cong, and he was quite satisfied with it.

With the energy of the prince of Chu, he can naturally give away more silver money, but Jia Cong can't keep it.

In this era, the emphasis is on 'parents are there, not property', unless Jia Cong wants to completely break with the Rongguo Mansion and the Jia clan, and become an 'outlier' targeted by the entire Daqing ritual law. Otherwise, the eldest lord would be able to take away all the silver tickets he got with a single word.

One thousand taels, just right!

The eldest lord and Mrs. Xing can't look down on it, and the old lady and the second wife don't care, this is the real 'good gift'.

Not only is the 1,000 taels of silver tickets just right, but the rest of the Huangzhuang, time-honored pharmacies and paper-making workshops, and even a pair of jade bi and jade Ruyi all have the big seal of the Zongren Mansion, which is really intimate.

With the Great Seal of the Zongren Mansion, these properties and gadgets are of the same nature as the imperial things rewarded by the emperor, and they cannot be bought or sold or transferred to other people's names, which is a taboo crime.

Although the great seal of the Zongren Mansion is not comparable to the emperor's imperial gifts, the ordinary powerful families really dare not snatch it indiscriminately, and a bad one will offend the Zongren Mansion.

In a sense, offending the Zongren Mansion is more serious than offending the emperor.

In a word, the thank you gift from the prince of Chu is really intimate and practical!

Even if Jia Cong goes out and starts a household at this time, relying on these industries that cannot be bought and sold casually, he can live an easy and nourishing life.

If he does anything in the future, as long as it does not involve the vital interests of Rongguo Mansion, Jia Cong does not need to be too scrupulous, and he can let it go.

Put a few industrial deeds back into the brocade box, Jia Cong plans to inform the eldest lord and Mrs. Xing tomorrow that it is best to cross the clear road to avoid trouble in the future.

……

"This is, a thank you gift from the prince of Chu?"

Putting down a few valuable deeds in his hand, the shocked look on the eldest man's face had not yet dissipated, and his eyes looking at Jia Cong were quite complicated.

As for the 1,000 taels of silver tickets, I just glanced at them and didn't pay attention to them.

He never thought that this concubine of his own family would climb the high branch of the prince of Chu, it was really ...... Good luck.

Jia Cong nodded yes, his attitude was respectful without the slightest mistake, and he asked with a smile: "Master, there is nothing wrong with these, right?" ”

"Of course there is no problem!"

The eldest lord's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "In the future, these industries will belong to your kid, and they can be passed on to future generations!" ”

"Nafuli ......"

Jia Cong pretended to be 'cautious', and the meaning of his words was quite obvious.

"This is yours, the thank you gift from the prince of Chu, no one in the mansion can snatch it!"

Like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, the eldest lord's tone was quite unkind when he said this, and he said viciously: "You kid don't need to worry, if anyone who doesn't have long eyes dares to stretch out his hand indiscriminately, even if the lord can't stand it, isn't there still the prince of Chu?" ”

Jia Cong laughed for a while......

Nima, do you want to gasp so much?

Co-authored, the eldest master himself is not sure, he can withstand the pressure in the house.

Of course, seeing that the eldest man looked like a matter of course, he was obviously not embarrassed at all, and there was no one else.

"What about the Huiyu bookstore and the accompanying printing workshop?"

Jia Cong was not polite, and took advantage of the fact that the eldest man was in a good mood at the moment, and simply wanted to determine the ownership of Jiangyou's bookstore and printing workshop.

After the province, the development of the Huiyou bookstore became better and better, attracting the greedy red eyes of some people in the house, such as Wang Xifeng, who was full of silver.

"You kid has a lot of appetite!"

The eldest man laughed and scolded, waved his hand and said angrily: "Get out, don't be an eyesore in front of Lao Tzu, as for the deed of the Huiyou bookstore and the book printing workshop, Lao Tzu will naturally send someone to send it over!" ”

"Thank you, sir!"

Jia Cong grinned, picked up the valuable brocade box and left, this time the harvest was really not small.

Not only did he get three properties that could be used as the foundation of his roots, but he also got the ownership of the Huiyu bookstore and the printing workshop from the eldest master, and it was a complete success.

As for the huge industry of Rongguo Mansion, it has nothing to do with him, and Jia Cong didn't think about getting involved. The industry in the house is not so easy to take over, and it is not easy to deal with the children of the family who have been completely crooked.

As far as Jia Baoyu is concerned, even if a gold mine is sent to him, he can't keep it.

As mentioned earlier, Rongguo Mansion is a big sieve, as long as it is not a particularly secret matter, everything about the old lady, the second wife, the eldest master and the second master can spread throughout the mansion in the blink of an eye.

This time was no exception, the news that Jia Cong, the concubine of the big house, had received a generous gift from a nobleman, spread throughout the house like the wind......
