On this day, the boat finally arrived at the pier.

The soldiers were the first to go ashore and dispersed the surrounding pedestrians.

Lin Daiyu and the others got into the carriage directly, followed the pedal to the shore, and the carriage drove all the way to the capital under the escort of the soldiers.

Lin Ruhai's family rolls have also disembarked and followed behind the Jia family's convoy.

Emperor Longqing gave Lin Ruhai an official office, and Lin Ruhai had already arranged for someone to go to Beijing in advance to clean up, and this time he moved there directly.

Li Biao was responsible for escorting Guanyin in the back, and commanded the convoy to follow behind.

The entire convoy had more than 200 frames, and it was heading towards the capital.

The pedestrians around were also a little dumbfounded and talked about it when they saw such a huge convoy.

The convoy entered the East City Gate, traveled a few more streets, and then split into three.

Jia Cong's convoy went all the way to the west, escorted by Qingwen and others, and rushed to Ning Guofu on Ningrong Street in Xicheng.

Lin Ruhai's official residence was in Dongcheng, and under the command of the housekeeper, he broke away from the team and went on his own.

Jia Cong took more than 100 vehicles loaded with official silver, went to the palace, and handed over to the emperor, he didn't know who to hand over so much silver, and he couldn't go to the palace first.

Shortly before rushing to the palace gate, Dai Quan hurriedly ran out, probably getting the news a long time ago.

"Ning Guogong, you can be regarded as back, Your Majesty has been looking forward to you for a long time."

Jia Cong didn't believe this at all, Emperor Longqing was just looking forward to silver, it was more than 20 million taels of silver, and the country's annual tax revenue was not a small amount.

Jia Cong smiled and said: "Father-in-law Dai don't come unharmed, I rushed over with a convoy as soon as I entered the city, I was afraid that His Majesty would be in a hurry." ”

As he spoke, he quietly gave Dai Quan two thousand taels of silver tickets.

Seeing this, Dai Quan smiled even more, this Ning Guogong is really a particular person.

"Ning Guogong is really polite, let's go see Your Majesty first."

Jia Cong nodded, pointed to the convoy outside, and asked, "Father-in-law Dai, don't you take this silver?" ”

Dai Quan smiled bitterly: "I would like to, but this is too much, and Your Majesty is not good to collect all of them into the inner treasury, and the people in the cabinet do not agree, and now they are negotiating with Your Majesty for this batch of silver."

Lord Song from the household department is also here, and the silver is estimated to be collected into the treasury of the household department, so let's go over first. ”

Jia Cong followed Dai Quan to the imperial study, and glanced at it hurriedly, and several cabinet ministers were actually there.

When they saw Jia Cong coming in, they all turned their heads to look over.

This is really worthy of the title of the little God of Wealth, and this next time Jiangnan, he got back more than 20 million taels of silver, which is really amazing.

When Jia Cong saw Emperor Longqing above, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "Minister, Jia Cong, knock on the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”

Emperor Longqing saw Jia Cong below, and he was in a good mood, Jia Cong came back, so the silver came.

waved his hand and said, "Jia Aiqing, let's get even, can this trip go well?" ”

Jia Cong stood up, arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the minister's journey is very smooth, the salt gang has been exterminated by the minister, all the middle and high-level members of the gang have been killed, none of them have escaped the net, and the ordinary gang has been transferred to the local government for detention."

In addition, the Huazi Gang in Jinling colluded with some local tyrants to abduct and sell children, collect and torture children, and be vicious and ferocious.

Lord Lin has also returned to Beijing with his ministers, and the seizure has also been escorted back to Beijing, and now it is outside the palace gate. ”

As he spoke, he handed a book to Dai Quan and forwarded it to Emperor Longqing.

Emperor Longqing flipped through it, saw the list behind it, and nodded with satisfaction.

Unexpectedly, Jia Cong went to Jinling to exterminate the Salt Gang, and actually got more than 4 million taels of silver, this kid is really good at making money.

At the end of the year, it is the time to use the money, and with this money it is much more abundant.

"Jia Aiqing, you did a good job this time, not only saved the official bank, but also exterminated the Salt Gang, and even brought back a large amount of silver money to solve the urgent need, I am very relieved.

Special gifts: 1,000 taels of gold, 200 pieces of palace brocade, 200 pieces of colored satin, and two pairs of jade Ruyi to show appreciation. ”

Jia Cong didn't expect Emperor Longqing to reward him again, so he quickly knelt down to thank him.

"Minister, Jia Cong, thank you for the reward, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Emperor Longqing smiled: "Okay, get up, how is Lin Aiqing's condition now?" Is it getting better? ”

Jia Cong said: "Back to Your Majesty, after Lord Lin's toxin is cleared, there is no danger of life, but he has been poisoned for a long time, and his internal organs have been seriously damaged, so he can only slowly recuperate, and if he wants to recover, it is estimated that it will take a long time." ”

"I see."

He turned his head to the ministers next to him and said, "Hu Aiqing, then, according to what I just discussed, all the seizures in Yangzhou will be handed over to the household department and included in the treasury, and you should be satisfied." ”

Hu Yong arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty is Shengming, and the ministers obey the order." ”

Emperor Longqing said to Jia Cong: "Ning Guogong, don't bother the two masters, just hand over to you and the household department, hand over the seizure of Yangzhou to the household department, and collect it into the treasury, do you understand?" ”

Jia Cong thought for a while, and saw that Dai Quan made colors for himself, and immediately understood the trick.

Emperor Longqing wanted to take the seizure of Jinling into his inner treasury.

This part of the seizure, others don't know yet, just stay and hand it over to Dai Quan.

Although the money in the treasury is also Emperor Longqing's, if he wants to take money from the treasury to spend, it is almost impossible, and these ministers will do everything possible to stop it.

The big truths are all set in one, and if you can say that you collapsed, it is no wonder that Emperor Longqing will play tricks with them.

Now that he knows Emperor Longqing's thoughts, he naturally can't let him down, this is his real boss.

Jia Cong arched his hand and said: "Minister, if you obey the order, you will definitely do it properly." ”

Emperor Longqing nodded with satisfaction, and said to Song Yan, the head of the household: "Song Aiqing, this time it is as you want, you and Ning Guogong will go to the settlement together, and you will follow Dai Quan." ”

He was really afraid that Jia Cong didn't fully understand what he meant, so he handed over all the money to the household department.

Song Yan said with a smile on his face: "Minister, according to the order, the silver is still His Majesty's silver when it is placed in the treasury, and His Majesty can spend it at any time if he wants." ”

When Emperor Longqing heard this, his face turned dark.

This is purely Hu Tu's own, it's just a fart, this old guy is cheap and good.

Emperor Longqing didn't bother to take care of him anymore, and waved his hand to let him get out of here.

Not only did Emperor Longqing not believe it, but even Jia Cong didn't believe it.

After staying in Liaodong for three years, the military salaries of his subordinates were all distributed through his hands, and the military salaries in his hands were only seventy percent.

This is still He Shiyuan, who gave his one percent to himself. If it's anyone else, it's only sixty percent.

As soon as the money left the household department, it was directly confiscated by the people of the household department.

The remaining 10 percent, after layers of deductions, to the frontier only 70 percent, the frontier generals, another deduction of 1 to 2 percent, to the soldiers, cavalry 60 percent, infantry 50 percent, this has become a practice.

This time, I got back more than 20 million taels of silver, and the two achievements were nearly 5 million taels.

It is said that Song Yan doesn't have so much courage, so much silver, whose hands did it go?

To say that Emperor Longqing didn't know at all, this is estimated to be unlikely, and it seems that he can't control it.

This matter is estimated to involve the Emperor Taishang again, it is all a bunch of things in the royal family, and it has nothing to do with him, so he still doesn't bother with this idleness, as long as no one comes to provoke him.

The three of them came to the outside of the hall, and Song Yan said with a smile: "Ning Guogong is worthy of being a little god of wealth, this next trip to Jiangnan has brought so much silver, the name of this little god of wealth is really well deserved, and the old man is also envious." ”

Jia Cong laughed and said: "Lord Song is joking, you are the real God of Wealth of the Empire, the financial power of the entire empire, all the money and grain, are in your hands, you are the veritable God of Wealth." ”

Song Yan laughed, thinking that this kid is really a slippery head, but this method is also leveraged, he is really a hero.

The three of them came to the gate of the palace, and when they saw the more than 100 carts, the smile on Song Yan's face was even worse.

The capture of Jinling was originally on Jia Cong's ship, and it was separated separately when he got off the ship.

Let Li Biao take these vehicles, obey Dai Quan's command, take the harvest of Yangzhou himself, and go to the household with Song Yan.

Song Yan looked at the vehicle that Dai Quan took away, and asked suspiciously, "Ning Guogong, what are those cars loaded on?" Why didn't you go to the household department, but sent it to the palace? ”

Jia Cong smiled and said: "Don't worry, Lord Song, your silver will not be less, those are the gifts I prepared for Your Majesty, some local specialties from Jiangnan." ”

Song Yan was a little skeptical of Jia Cong's words.

However, when Jia Cong sent something to the emperor, he had no right to ask, so he stopped asking.

Looking at Jia Cong's eyes, there was some meaning, this kid is really good at things, and he actually gave gifts directly to His Majesty, which is really promising.

The two chatted and came to the yamen of the household department, and then counted the number of silver taels.

With such a large amount of money, I don't know when I will count it?

Naturally, this kind of thing doesn't need to be done by the two of them personally, just let the people below do it.

The two sat in Song Yan's office room, chatting over tea while waiting for the results of the final count.

······

Qingwen escorted Lin Daiyu and the others, and the vehicles of the female rolls drove into Ningrong Street.

came to the door of Ning Guofu, Zhang Fu, Ping'er and others were already waiting at the door to greet them.

Ping'er didn't see Jia Cong's shadow, so she couldn't help asking, "Qingwen, where is Grandpa Guo?" Why didn't I come back with you? ”

Qingwen said: "Sister Ping'er, Grandpa Guo has gone to the palace, and he can only come back after handing over his errands, the three girls are in the car, let's go home first." ”

Ping'er nodded, and asked the carriage to be driven directly into the mansion and went directly to the backyard.

The news of Jia Cong's return reached Rongguo Mansion and soon reached the ears of the old lady.

When Jia Mu heard this, she hurriedly asked Amber to inquire about the news.

After a while, Amber took Jia Lian to the old lady's room.

"Old lady, Second Master Lian is back, let him talk to you."

Jia Lian stepped forward and saluted: "Grandson greets the old lady." ”

Jia Mu said: "Get up, you are back, where is Brother Cong?" What about Yu'er? Why didn't I come with you? ”

Jia Lian said: "Old lady, Your Majesty asked Brother Cong to escort the official silver back from Yangzhou, Brother Cong is now going to the palace to pay the errand, and he still needs to hand over the official silver, and it is estimated that he will not be able to come back for a while and a half."

Let's try it soon, everyone. 】

Sister Lin and the fourth sister went to Dongfu with the convoy, and they bought a lot of gifts, and it is estimated that they will come with the gifts.

In addition, Uncle Lin also returned to Beijing and went to the mansion given to him by His Majesty, and it is estimated that he will come to see you after settling down. ”

Mother Jia nodded and asked, "How is your Uncle Lin's condition now?" Is your body getting better? ”

Jia Lian said: "Uncle Lin is no longer in serious trouble, but his body is seriously injured and needs to be slowly recuperated. ”

At this time, everyone heard the news and came to Jia's mother's room.

When Wang Xifeng saw Jia Lian, he was a little excited.

After all, it is a young couple, and they all say that Xiao Biesheng is newly married, and it has been three months since they saw it, and they are naturally very looking forward to it.

Thinking of the flower world in Yangzhou, I don't know if this is spending time outside every day.

"Hey, the second master is back, I heard that the thin horse in Yangzhou is very famous, and I thought the second master was reluctant to come back? Did you bring two with you? ”

Jia Lian sighed in his heart, this phoenix spicy man, he knows himself, can't he know something?

After carefully observing her face, she knew that she was lying to herself, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

With a smile on his face: "How is it possible?" When I arrived in Yangzhou, Brother Cong was stable for two or three days, and then began to toss, Yangzhou tossed over, and went to Jinling, Suzhou, Hangzhou, every day without home, I have to take care of everything at home, how can I have time to go out?

Uncle Lin got His Majesty's permission to let him go back to Beijing to recuperate, and he had already packed his bags, but Brother Cong and the others did not come back for a long time, and waited for them for almost a month before coming back. ”

Wang Xifeng glanced at Jia Lian, she really didn't believe Jia Lian's words.

However, in front of outsiders, it's not good to say anything?

"What about the aunts and grandmothers? Why didn't I come back with you? ”

Jia Lian said: "I went to Dongfu with the Dongfu convoy, and Brother Cong took them to buy a lot of small gifts, and it is estimated that they will pack up and come over together." ”

Tanchun said with envy: "I've been to so many places, I knew that we would go with us." ”

Mother Jia said: "Didn't Brother Cong say to see your Uncle Lin?" Why are you running around, it's like you're going on a trip, aren't you along? ”

Jia Lian said: "Old lady, on the way to Yangzhou, we encountered the people of the Salt Gang looting the official silver, and Brother Cong took action to defeat them.

After the matter in Yangzhou, Brother Cong went to Jinling to deal with the Salt Gang, and I also went to Jinling, after the matter in Jinling, Brother Cong and Sister Lin went to Suzhou, and I went back to Yangzhou. ”

When my mother heard this, she sighed in her heart.

Brother Cong, this child, is really uneasy wherever he goes, and this next trip to Jiangnan, he actually tossed all the way.

However, this child's ability is really not said.

With him on the back, the Jia family can at least prosper for a few more decades, or even nearly a hundred years.
