Chapter 291: The Lion Opens His Mouth
Jia Cong followed Jia Lian to Rongguo Mansion, in Jia's mother's room.
I saw Jia Yu, Jia Zheng, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, and Wang Xifeng, all sitting in the room.
In addition to Jia Lian, the people who have the final say on the side of Rongguo Mansion and those who have decision-making power are already in this house.
Jia Cong stepped forward to say goodbye to Jia's mother, and then to Jia Yu and Mrs. Xing, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang, but this thing on the face can't make people talk.
Mother Jia asked Jia Cong to sit down on the side and said, "Brother Cong, I called you over today to discuss the matter of your eldest sister's provincial relatives. ”
Jia Cong nodded and said: "I heard about the matter of the imperial concubine's relatives some time ago, but it was not decided at that time, and it is a good thing to hear that the second brother said that it has been decided now."
The eldest sister has been away from home for so many years, it is good to be able to go home to see, choose a good yard, and then a little tidy, it will be almost, the eldest sister will stay for an hour or two at most, and then she has to rush back to the palace, and it is impossible for the imperial concubine to spend the night outside the palace. ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and they didn't expect Jia Cong to say this.
This is completely different from the result they just discussed, they still want to occupy Huifang Garden, and let Jia Cong spend some money to repair the garden.
Several people glanced at each other, and they all looked at Jia Mu.
Mother Jia also frowned when she heard Jia Cong's words, she still wanted to build a luxurious garden to let the Jia family have a good scenery.
According to this bastard boy, how can that work?
If he really did what he said, then the Jia family would be too embarrassed, even relatives and friends would talk about it.
Even Yuan Chun's face is not good-looking, what a woman wants outside is a face, the Jia family can't help her otherwise, it's still okay to save face for her.
"Brother Cong, although what you said is like that, but you can't do that, if you really want to do that, outsiders will laugh at us, and your eldest sister will also be ridiculed by others, this provincial family courtyard must be built, and it must be built."
Jia Cong had known this result for a long time, and the reason why he said this was also to wait for a good bargain.
"Since you want to build a garden, then build it, now there is no shortage of money in the house, and there is no problem in building a garden."
Jia Mu can see that this stinky boy doesn't want to care at all, but what should be said still has to be said.
"Brother Cong, we also discussed it roughly before you came, let your second uncle talk to you."
Jia Cong nodded and looked at Jia Zheng.
Jia Zhengdao: "This time is really the emperor's grace, the emperor is sympathetic to the concubines in the palace, who have been away from home for a long time and cannot reunite with their parents, so he has a special decree."
The families of the imperial concubines, in addition to entering the palace on the 26th to meet each other, those who have a Chongyu Annex, who can be stationed at the gate, can invite the inner court Luan Yu into their private affairs, and they can do their best to share the joy of family.
This holy decree, who is not enthusiastic to wear, now Zhou Guifei's father has started work at home to repair the provincial family's courtyard. and Wu Guifei's father, Wu Tianyou's family, also went to look outside the city. ”
Seeing Jia Zheng's excited face, he really felt as if he was very gracious.
The emperor's move is not necessarily An's kindness.
In the original book, the Jia family put the entire family into it in order to repair the garden, which was considered to be crazy in the end, and Dongfu was out of silver and land, and in the end it didn't get a good job.
Thinking of this, Jia Cong couldn't help but pouted secretly, if he really cared about flesh and blood, he wouldn't send Yuanchun into the palace.
Jia Cong said: "I heard about these a few days ago, second uncle tell me about the results of your discussion." ”
Jia Zhengdao: "Since we want to build a provincial hospital, it can't be too small, and it's not convenient to go outside the city, so we finally decided to build it at home, but the Rongfu is smaller."
Let's discuss, from the east area, and then the Dongfuli garden, to the northwest, including the garden on the side of the East Road Courtyard, measured together, a total of three and a half miles old, you can build a provincial courtyard.
I invited a garden master in the Ministry of Engineering, Shan Ziye, who has already designed the layout of the provincial courtyard, as long as we have decided and the money is in place, we can be ready to start construction. ”
These are not beyond Jia Cong's expectations, and he has known for a long time.
"Second uncle's action is quite fast, our Huifang Garden in Dongfu is also one of the most famous gardens in the capital, if you draw it together, it shouldn't take much silver, right?"
Jia Zhengdao: "I have already found someone to budget, and I need 800,000 taels of silver to build the provincial family's courtyard, although the house here is a lot better, but I can't take out so much money, and I still need you to take out some of it." ”
】
Spending 800,000 taels of silver to build a big garden, seriously, it's not worth it.
The construction of Huifang Garden also used two or three hundred thousand taels of silver, a provincial hospital, where can you use so much silver?
Most of the things in Huifang Garden can be used, and some can even be left untouched.
In the original book, a large view garden was repaired, but countless people were fattened, and those housekeepers and stewards were all fattened.
Jia Cong glanced at everyone in the house, these people had money but didn't want to give it up, so he let himself be the wronged leader, and turned his head to look at the old lady.
"Old lady, is this what you have discussed? He who called me to give money and the earth? I don't know how much money you want me to pay? ”
Jia Mu heard the unhappiness in Jia Cong's words, and was thinking about what to say.
Mrs. Wang said: "Brother Cong, we won't let you pay more, Rongfu Gongzhong can make up 150,000 taels, the eldest master will pay 50,000 taels, your second uncle and I will pay 50,000 taels, your second brother and Feng Yatou will give 50,000 taels, and the old lady will also give 50,000 taels."
This adds up to 350,000 taels, and there is a difference of 450,000 taels, you are the richest in this, you are all out, if the two mansions are half of the family, it is 400,000, and you only have 50,000 more, which is not much, right? ”
When Jia Cong heard this, he laughed angrily.
What the hell, do you really think you're wronged?
It's also half of the two houses, why are you embarrassed to say it, does it have a half-dime relationship with yourself?
If you really want to calculate it, in your own generation, Ning Rong's second mansion is already the fourth generation, and it is not very close, if it weren't for the fact that the two mansions have titles and are next to each other, it is estimated that there will be very little contact.
This is to see that during this period of time, I respected them and felt that I was good at talking, so I opened my mouth to my lion.
glanced at everyone in the room, and suddenly felt quite boring.
He was not a member of the Jia family in the first place, but he just occupied Jia Cong's body.
Because in this world, I am alone, so I think that I am the relatives of this body, so I treat them as my relatives and get along well.
I didn't expect my sincerity to be treated like this, which was really chilling.
If you really can't do it, you don't want this identity, take your own people to the grassland to claim the king, unify the grassland first, and then beat down the barbarians, and by the way, take down Goryeo.
The climate in Goryeo is similar to that in the capital, and it is not bad to spend the winter there.
In the summer, I went to the prairie in the north and galloped on horseback, which was regarded as a summer escape, and this small day was not a hundred times happier than in the capital?
Jia Cong is just thinking about it, and he won't take that step unless he has to.
After all, the climate of the Central Plains is more comfortable.
Let's continue to fight with these people, since they are reluctant to pay, then take the ownership in their hands.
"Second wife, who will belong to this provincial family courtyard after it is built? Does it belong to your Rongguo Mansion, or to our Ning Guofu? ”
Mrs. Wang said: "This is a provincial courtyard built for Concubine Yuan, so it is naturally returned to Concubine Yuan." ”
Jia Cong said: "I don't like to listen to the words of the second wife, the concubine will stay for an hour or two when she comes, after coming this time, I don't know if I will come for the second time in this life, and besides, people live in the palace, what's the use of wanting this garden?" ”
Mrs. Wang said: "Concubine Yuan came to our side to save her relatives, and this provincial family courtyard should naturally belong to our side." ”
Jia Cong smiled: "I'm out of the garden again, and I'm out of the garden, and I'm out of the money, what's the matter with me?" ”
Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Brother Cong, you are usually very generous, what is the matter today, you are worried about such a thing." ”
Jia Cong said: "Sister-in-law, what you said is really light, that's 450,000 taels of silver, or we will change it, I will pay 50,000 taels, and you will pay 450,000 taels?"
You've made a lot of money over the years, so if you come up with another two or three hundred thousand taels, there should be no problem, right? ”
When Wang Xifeng heard this, he was anxious.
"Brother Cong, don't talk nonsense, how can I and your second brother have so much silver in our hands, we can't compare with you, you are a rich man."
Jia Cong said: "Look at the affairs of your own house, you are not willing to pay more, but let me be an outsider to pay more, and it is still for nothing, do you think it is appropriate?"
The second wife kept saying that Concubine Yuan came to your side to save her relatives, what's wrong with you having more money? As for the assets of the second wife, take out another 100,000 taels, there is no problem at all, it is your daughter, and you are reluctant to pay it? Do you think it sounds like words? ”
Wang Xifeng was afraid that Jia Cong would reveal her assets, so she sat directly on the side and kept silent.
Jia Yu sat on the side and the old god was there, no matter if he didn't ask, as long as he didn't let himself take more money, when he discussed it just now, he felt that Jia Cong would not agree.
It's obviously a bit of a bully to do this, there is no benefit, let people pay for nothing, go out of the land, and no one will agree to it.
Mrs. Wang said: "Brother Cong, how can you be an outsider, aren't you also the old lady's own grandson?" You're so rich, what's wrong with spending a little more for your family?
In the future, when you are in the court, you also need your eldest sister to take care of you, don't you, you should contribute more money for her? ”
When Jia Cong heard this, he was a little speechless.
Yuan Chun was not very favored in the palace, and Emperor Longqing named her a concubine, also to envelop Jia Cong, to put it mildly, it was a tool for marriage.
Whether she is doing well in the palace or not depends on Jia Cong's help and asks Dai Quan to help take care of it.
Expecting Yuanchun to take care of himself, it is estimated that it is impossible, and it is good not to drag himself down.
Jia Cong said: "Second wife, since you said that I am not an outsider, but my own, how about the provincial relatives and other courtyards belong to me?" ”
Mrs. Wang said, "How can this be done? How can this be the same? ”
This Nima's, when he asks for money, he is his own person, and it is different when it comes to ownership.
Jia Cong shook his head and stopped paying attention to her.
Turning his head to look at Jia Mu, he asked, "Does the old lady feel the same way?" ”
Jia Mu listened to it for so long, and she didn't know where she was, this bastard boy was a little unhappy.
She is still counting on Jia Cong to give her a long face, naturally she doesn't want to stiffen the relationship with him, besides, this child is really filial to herself, and there is really no one among these children and grandchildren who can compare to him.
is his favorite Baoyu, that is, to make himself happy, in terms of filial piety, he is far inferior to Brother Cong.
Let's calm down and discuss with him slowly.
"You stinky boy, when did I say this, let you take so much, it's indeed a bit much, if you have any ideas, let's discuss it again."
Jia Cong looked at Jia's mother, thought for a while, and said: "Old lady, although we are a family, but, after all, we belong to two mansions, let me assign Huifangyuan to Rong Mansion for nothing, this territory will always belong to my Ningguo Mansion."
My huge Ningguo Mansion, I can't even have a garden, I can occupy it if I want, and we can also open a corner gate on our side of Ningfu, we can go over to play at any time, and in the future, the provincial courtyard is the common garden of our two mansions, what does the old lady think? ”
Jia Mu thought about it, it was nothing, and agreed.
"I think so, do you have any opinions?"
Wang Xifeng said: "I think it's very good, there are corner gates on both sides, and it is more convenient for the two mansions to move around, and they go directly from the garden." ”
The others didn't have any opinions, so it was decided.
Jia Mu said: "Then this matter is settled, what about the silver?" What are you going to do? ”
Jia Cong said: "Such a big garden, in the future, it also needs someone to manage, whoever wants the management of this courtyard, who is responsible for raising money to build, if the Rong Mansion wants the right to manage, then your Rong Mansion will pay for the construction yourself, and I can just go out of the garden."
If you don't want to pay, then give us the management power to Ningfu, I will raise money to build it myself, and we will manage it in the future, you don't have to pay, and you can only go out of the place.
These two plans, you can choose, which one you think is suitable, you can choose which, the decision is still in your hands, let you choose, my two plans, no matter who you are, are absolutely fair. What does the old lady think? ”
Jia Mu listened to Jia Cong's words, smiled and said: "It's really fair, whoever wants the right to manage will pay for it, it's the same for everyone, my wife won't want the right to manage, which of you wants the right to manage, hurry up and stand up and speak, do you want it?" ”
Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Hey, ancestor, Lian Er and I don't have any money, we don't want this management right." ”
Jia Yu said: "We don't want it either, you love whoever you want." ”
Jia Mu said: "The second family, do you two want it, if you want it, you can raise money to build it yourself, and if you don't want it, you will give it to others." ”
Wang said: "Old lady, we can't afford to repair it ourselves, but what about the concubine?" ”
Jia Mu said: "No matter who built the provincial relatives' courtyard, it was all for the provincial concubine's relatives, but this is beyond doubt, what are you worried about?" Wait for the provincial pro-courtyard to be repaired, first let the concubine save the pro-family, and afterwards, the provincial pro-courtyard will be managed by the builder. ”
