No, this kind of errand that can be done with your eyes closed can also be done?

It's not digging a canal from scratch, it's repairing, it's dredging the river!

You don't even have to do it yourself, go to the local gang that runs the dock, hand over the money to them, and they can handle this matter safely and securely.

Through Old Man Lu's words, Jia Hui probably figured things out.

For this unskilled matter, Jia Zheng felt that it was a condescension of the court to do this kind of thing by himself, so he wanted to make it difficult for himself, so that the officials and the emperor could see their own skills!

Combined with the 100,000 taels of silver given by the imperial court, after thinking about it, Jia Zheng decided to save money for the imperial court as much as possible!

Originally, it was handed over to the local craftsmen or gangs in Beiping to do it, but Jia Zheng just had to make some moths.

He felt that these craftsmen and gangs of government-run workshops would embezzle a lot of special funds, and then only leave the silver for the construction of projects of barely acceptable quality, and then it would break down in a few years, so that he could eat another wave of silver.

Hmph, the people who came to supervise the work before were all corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and I was ashamed to be with them!

This time, I, Jia Zheng, want to use these funds for the project to ensure that it will be settled once and for all. At least for a hundred years, there will be no problems!

For this reason, Jia Zheng decided to form an engineering team by himself!

But having said that, Jia Zheng was puzzled by how to recruit workers, who was considered a qualified craftsman, and what plans to make plans for the repair of the canals

Just when Jia Zheng was busy but didn't know what to be busy with, and was a little disheartened and ready to give up, at the critical moment, his Qingke Shan Renren appeared in front of him, patting his chest and promising to do this matter properly.

Jia Zheng believed it!

"Then your second uncle, the Qingke surnamed Shan, went to the gang and the official family to have a meal together."

"Wait a minute, Master Lu, people from the gang and the official family?" Jia Hui's face was strange.

Isn't it not for gangs and officials to repair? How did this twist and turn back again?

"But no, think about it, who are the people who have the ability to dredge rivers and repair canals? Those are all talents, either into the Ministry of Industry Yamen, or into the gang as a master, and there will be some two knives left soon!

The surname Shan is not stupid, he knows this truth, if he really finds those two knives to repair, it will be repaired, but if something happens if it is not repaired, the chief officer is dead, and he can still run away from the one who made plans and actually participated in the construction? That's going to kill your head! ”

"Tsk, this Shan Pingren is also a talent."

"No, then he asked the official family and the gang to partner up an engineering team to build a construction team together."

Originally, they wanted to refuse, but to make money, business, chilling!

The two parties also reluctantly assembled a construction team.

Everything went smoothly here, and Jia Zheng was also very satisfied when he inspected it, after all, he had only seen the heads of gangs and official families, and no one under him had seen them, so he couldn't tell them, so he started to do it with a wave of his hand.

In fact, it is not necessarily true that the official team is said to be an official family, to be precise, it is attached to the Ministry of Industry, and it is convenient to do things with layers of official skins, and it is precisely because of the official skin that his words and deeds on weekdays are also very arrogant.

And who are the gangs? was originally a brave and ruthless master, how could he fall into majesty in front of this gang of subordinate officials' families?

In addition, there are many contradictions in grabbing business, and this group of people got together and naturally fought.

However, under the deterrence of Jia Zheng as the official of the Ministry of Industry, the two parties seem to have reconciled on their faces

But the private feud intensified!

This battle also quickly affected the finances

"Ah, I see, it's that group of gangs who think that they can avoid conflict with you, no problem, I can even completely obey your command, but I want to take more money!"

"Yes, that's it! But those officials don't think so, and the officials think that you should have listened to us professionals, and we should have taken more money, and then these two groups of people began to fight openly and secretly."

Today I cut a cut of the food bill, and tomorrow I accidentally knocked over the bracket and injured the professional standing on it.

The two groups of people made more and more small movements, and as they fought, they suddenly remembered that the cause of all conflicts was wages.

So under the negotiation of the heads of the two groups, they went deep into the finances

"So where did Shan Renren go? It stands to reason that if you do this, it will definitely delay the progress of the project, right? ”

"This is natural, the surname Shan also wanted to take care of it, but the group of people suddenly stopped, and then began to build the canal honestly, the surname Shan thought that they were hurting and honest, so they didn't care, and continued to go to the flower and drink."

When the project was hard for a month and it was time to pay the next month's payment, something happened.

The rest of the project is not enough!

Looking at the account book that was owed 100,000 taels after calculation, Shan Ren's heart suddenly cooled down

The 100,000 taels of silver used as the project payment, Shan Pingren was greedy for 15,000 taels, and another 15,000 taels was used to seal the mouths of his colleagues who were also Jia Zhengqingke and the servants of the Jia family who came with him, and the remaining 70,000 taels were the money for repairing the canal!

Last month, 50,000 taels of money were given for the project, and the 50,000 taels of silver could barely be repaired before a year and a half to ensure that the errand was not bad, and the canal of luck for two years was coming, but this time it was different, although Shan Pingren was a little greedy this time, but he also wanted to really do some achievements, so that Ming Gong could see his ability, so that he could be recommended to enter the six departments on an errand

Therefore, he plans to use 70,000 taels to repair the canal, which can not only be greedy for some money, but also repair it well, and the canal will not be bad for seven or eight or even ten years, but

In front of him, it took 50,000 taels to reluctantly spend more than 30,000 taels to repair the canal, and there were two groups of people who stood together like brothers, and said that the remaining 60% of the canal was to be repaired with 80,000 taels, and Shan Renren's face was extremely pale.

The 15,000 taels that were given to other Qing guests and servants must not come back, and the 15,000 taels they had left and 3,000 taels bought a thin horse from Yangzhou, and the 5,000 taels had been sent back to their hometown to buy land and buy real estate, and then they had spent almost 2,000 taels in Beiping City, and there were 5,000 taels of silver left in their hands!

The panicked Shan Pingren's first thought was to go back to Jia Zheng to ask him for help, but these two groups of people knew about his embezzlement of project funds, and if they told it, let alone himself, Jia Zheng would be stabbed.

As for why he didn't tell Jia Zheng that the canal was built too well, so the money was not enough

100,000 taels of silver is a number that the Ministry of Industry has calculated repeatedly, even if there is an error or something like the rise in local prices, it is less than a few thousand taels of silver.

And this kind of more than 100,000 taels not only the officials of the Ministry of Industry will not believe it, but even his Ming Gong, who is not familiar with popular affairs, will not believe it!

Shan Pingren, who had not yet become an old oilman, panicked suddenly, and promised to send another 100,000 taels, and then rode on his horse and galloped to his residence in the city, and took the remaining silver tickets and ran out of the city from the north of the city to the south

"Then, after waiting for two whole days, the two groups of people who still didn't wait for the money also panicked, since they took this errand, it was the responsibility of repairing the canal, so frightened that they hurriedly ran into the city to find Shan Renren, only to find that he had run away

You said that this group of people is also stupid, and it is about the responsibility of repairing the canal, why didn't they send someone to keep an eye on the surnamed Shan! ”

In the private house, Jia Hui talked about the noodles over and over again, and told the gossip he heard from Lu Xiujie to Li Kun and Jia Yu, who were stunned and the noodles fell out of their mouths

The old lady didn't want to stay with the big house, so she took Baoyu to Jia Min for dinner

"Bastard, something so big, why are you still smiling!" Jia Yu was anxious all of a sudden.

Although he doesn't like Jia Zheng's second brother very much, but the embezzlement of project funds, especially those related to water conservancy, is to destroy the three clans!

He's in the Three Tribes!

"Hey, it's okay, isn't it just greedy for money? Little things, according to the law. In fact, you can get away with paying twice the amount of money you originally set."

"But if he is hypocritical, how can he have the money to pay for his sins? You've got your eye on the old lady's private room! "As soon as he encounters this kind of life-threatening matter, Jia Yu will become deaf and wise.

"Yes, didn't the businesses in the public middle school, the Wang family and the second room industry all mix up the yellow, but I didn't expect that the old lady and the second room have a very thick foundation, and so far they have the same living standard as before giving birth, and at a glance, I know that they are not less greedy" Jia Hui snorted and pulled all the remaining noodles in the sea bowl into his mouth, took the handkerchief that had been wet handed by Li Kun and wiped his mouth.

"This Brother Hun, the old lady is all that is left for herself, after all, it is your grandmother, my own mother, there is no need to be so desperate, right?" The filial piety to Jia's mother in his heart made Jia Yu uneasy.

"Don't let the old lady pay? No problem, but my county government won't pay for it, and you can get together with the second room and the old lady with those atonement money."

Jia Hui said indifferently, picked up the teacup over and over again, drank a sip of tea soup and rinsed his mouth.

"That's it, forget it" Jia Yu thought back to his private room, and his face changed dramatically in an instant, from a good brother who was worried about his brother's safety, and suddenly became hard-hearted.

Jia Hui pursed her lips and smiled slightly.

How many private rooms Jia Yu has, he has long found out.

The first generation of Rongguo Gong and his wife, that is, the private house left for him by Jia Yu's grandparents, should have had more than 500 nearly 6 million taels of silver, including real estate, Zhuangzi, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc., and the cash and silver were worth about 3 million taels in total.

Over the years, about 1.2 million taels of silver have been spent one after another, and things like antiques, calligraphy and paintings are not missing, but they have added a lot.

In other words, he still has less than two million taels of cash left, and if he really handed over the 200,000 taels of atonement silver for Jia Zheng, then his cash amount would instantly shrink by more than one-tenth

Forget it, what is there to help the second political child, the second room has its own money, and the old lady will definitely pay for it, the most unfortunate, isn't there Jia Yuanchun, the princess

As for the father of the two brothers, where did Jia Daishan's private house go

Jia Daishan's private rooms were all left to his favorite grandson Jia Hui.

"That's right, Dad, we're all going to share our own property with the second room, don't mention that they have to worry about it." Jia Hui looked at Jia Yu earnestly and said.

"But in case the old lady."

"Then let the old lady come to me directly and let her old man talk to me! Oh, thank you ma'am! ”

Jia Hui was saying domineeringly, and Li Kun, who was silent on the side, handed Jia Hui a large bowl of noodles that had been remixed with marinade.

。。。。。。

Nameless view.

"What do you say? Dog mongrels and that old thing are coming to the gate! ”

"Master Sun, what the disciple said is absolutely true! The guard of honor is almost five miles long, it must be the emperor."

"Bastard, that's not the emperor, that's a bastard who survives by eating shit!"

"Yes! It must be the honor guard of the mongrel who survived eating shit! ”

The spy was shocked and quickly changed his words, and he actually called the dog thing the emperor, bah bah!

When he was about to slap his mouth thirty times again, he was stopped by the old Taoist priest.

"Master Sun, what are you doing? I actually barked at the dog. One bang. Alas, the disciple is sorry for the first emperor, so let the disciple punish himself thirty times! ”

"Bastard, just now the old man accidentally called that bastard the Dog Emperor. Bah, the first emperor, the old minister can't stand you, come on boy, let's open our mouths to each other for thirty years, to set an example! ”

"Yes!"

As soon as the words fell, the spy slapped the old Taoist priest in the face, knocking the old Taoist off the futon to the ground

Looking at the two people who were slapping each other and encouraging each other to work harder, the little prince with his left arm bandaged around his neck shrank in the corner and desperately lowered his sense of existence, for fear of being discovered by them.

He was already a little numb to this scene.

You beat me, I beat you, and finally stopped after beating the other party's master and apprentice with thirty slaps.

The spies' skill realm was not enough, so he could only cover his cheeks and endure the pain, while the old Taoist priest laughed

"Old Sun, what's the matter with such a happy smile?"

A middle-aged man walked in, and the spy quickly knelt on the ground and said that he was in command, and the young man who was cowering in the corner also walked over with fear.

Although Wei Ci is not as crazy as Sun Laodao, it is not much better, and it hurts to beat people.

And his mother was killed by this open-mouthed knife!

"Disciple to meet Master Wei."

"Oh, prince, it's really a tormenting old minister!" Wei Ci hurriedly helped him up, and for a while the master and apprentice were harmonious, causing Sun Laodao to stroke his beard and nod with relief.

"Hey, Lao Sun, you haven't answered Lao Tzu yet, what makes you laugh so happily?"

"Hey, hey, hahahaha, old Wei, old Wei, do you know? The opportunity we've been waiting for for nearly ten years has finally come, and the dog mongrel and the old thing have come to Guanzhong together! ”
