Chapter 344: The Grand View Garden is completed
Lin Zhixiao hurriedly saluted: "Please third master, I don't know what the third master commands?" ”
Jia Huan couldn't help asking: "Lin Zhixiao, I don't know how many drivers are in our house?" ”
Lin Zhixiao hurriedly said: "Back to the third master, in our house, in order to prevent the masters from going out together for something, we have nine coachmen." ”
"Two followed the third master to Ping'an County, and followed the third master back to one, and now there are eight coachmen left."
Eight coachmen is not a small number, but the number is still not enough.
Jia Huan asked again: "Lin Zhixiao, then you go to Xifu to borrow four coachmen, and I will use them tomorrow." By the way, do you still need me to come forward to say something to my ancestors? ”
Lin Zhixiao said with a smile: "Third Master, just borrowing a few coachmen for such a trivial matter, where can you use the third master to come forward in person?" That old slave has been in vain for so many years. ”
Jia Huan smiled: "That's good, by the way, I also want you to make dozens of banners overnight, and wait for Ming'er to hang them on the bodies of those four-wheeled carriages I ordered someone to send." ”
"Then catch Ming'er, and you let the coachman drive the four-wheeled carriage around the whole capital. Don't run too fast, run slowly, and let people see the banners clearly. ”
Lin Zhixiao listened to the novelty, and he hurriedly asked: "Third master, I don't know what words to write on this banner?" How big a banner should you want? ”
Jia Huan said what words to write on the banner, and said: "As for the size of the banner, you can look at it yourself according to the size of the four-wheeled carriage." Let people see the Lord clearly, and by the way, remember not to block the glass. ”
And Lin Zhixiao couldn't help but be startled when he heard the words that Jia Huan asked him to write on the banner.
He hurriedly asked, "Third Master, do you really want to write like this?" Isn't that a prohibition? If the top blames it, it's ......"
Jia Huan smiled: "I tell you to write whatever you want, I will carry you when something happens, what are you afraid of?" ”
Lin Zhixiao had no choice but to say, "Yes, third master." ”
Jia Huan said again: "By the way, if anyone orders a carriage in the future, they will come to you, and you must record the list and remember their addresses clearly." ”
"If there is a deposit, how much deposit you have collected, these must be clearly recorded. Then you see that there are more summaries, so you will send them to Ping'an County. ”
"These things will be troubled for you in the early stage. Later, the capital will definitely find a warehouse and shop, and then you won't have to work so hard. ”
Now Lin Zhixiao has just become the chief housekeeper of Ning Guofu, and on the side of Ning Guofu, the serious master Jia Huan is not at home.
The two masters below, the You Clan, the Xiao Qin Clan, and Xichun, are all very peaceful and self-contained, and they rarely trouble him.
Of course, Lin Zhixiao is also very respectful to them, and there is no slackness.
It's actually very quiet in this house.
It's no wonder that Lin Zhixiao has only been in office for a few days, and he is about to be blessed.
Now that the third master has found something for him to do, Lin Zhixiao is very happy.
Lin Zhixiao hurriedly said: "Third master, such a trivial matter, just leave it to me to do." Doing things for the third master is a blessing for us, where is there any hard work? ”
Jia Huan nodded and said, "Okay, then you go down and get ready to go." ”
After Lin Zhixiao stepped back, Jia Huan found that Xiangling was pulling Qingwen to talk loudly.
Jia Huanzheng heard Xiangling say how to be the depression of the Du Gong Department, the elegance of Wei Suzhou, and the elegance of Wen Bacha, and the seclusion of Li Yishan.
Jia Huan couldn't help but smile when he heard it, he remembered that this should be Shi Xiangyun's argument.
Xiangling must have gotten it from Shi Xiangyun, presumably these days, Jia's mother also picked up Shi Xiangyun.
Shi Xiangyun, a heroine among women, has a face-to-eye with Xiangling, a poet.
Jia Huan saw that Qingwen's face was impatient, and he endured it, obviously not very interested.
Xiao Jixiang, this girl, with her hands on her cheeks, is listening to the nap.
The mandarin ducks sat not far away, smiling at them.
Xiaohong is holding a ledger and is reconciling.
Seeing Jia Huan coming in, Xiaohong hurriedly came to report: "Third master, this is the expenditure account book of the Provincial Relatives Hospital, and since I took over, I have spent a total of 176,700 taels of silver. ”
"A total of 513,000 taels of silver were spent before and after, and now the main body has been fully constructed, and only some details still need to be repaired, and it will not take a few days."
"Take a look at this account book, there are inaccuracies in it."
Jia Huan took the account book, flipped through it at a glance, and then threw it away.
Xiaohong's record is very detailed, and there is nothing wrong with it.
The specific accounts Jia Huan did not calculate, there are two governments to audit the accounts and fight corruption, he believes that Xiaohong does not dare to risk the world's disapproval and greed.
Jia Huan said with a smile: "The third master employs people, and he has always been suspicious of people, and he is not suspicious of people." Since I trust you with the errand, I naturally trust you. I don't need to look at this account book. ”
"It's been hard for you these days, how do you say the third master should reward you? What reward do you want? ”
Xiaohong pursed her lips and smiled: "Third master, this is what should be done by slaves and maids. The trust of the third master is the greatest reward for the slave and maid, where can he dare to ask for more? ”
Jia Huan said with a smile: "You have done a good job, you should have been rewarded, if you have merit, you will not be rewarded, and if you have a fault, you will lose your dignity." ”
"So when you went to the account office and paid fifty taels of silver, you said that the third master gave it to you. In addition, the rest of you, who have no merit and hard work, have also worked hard. Go to the account room and take twenty taels of silver, which the third master has given you. ”
The other girls just heard that Jia Huan had rewarded Xiaohong, and their hearts were sour, and they were a little unconvinced.
When Jia Huan also rewarded them, although they were far less than Xiaohong, they didn't do anything, which was an unexpected joy.
Therefore, all the women were overjoyed and thankful.
Xiaohong said again: "Third master, now that the garden has been built, but the places have not been named, and the third master is asked to name it with an inscription." ”
After listening to Xiaohong's words, Jia Huan pondered for a while, and finally decided to follow the name in the Red Mansion Book.
Although he was able to copy better poetry couplets, if he really changed his name, he would inevitably lose the charm of the Red Mansion, which would be a pity.
(Well, it's actually the dog author who is shallow in learning, so I have to follow Xiao Guicao)
With his memory, Jia Huan wrote down the names and couplets of the various scenery in the Grand View Garden.
Then ordered Xiaohong to hang on first.
Now Concubine Xiande has not yet saved her relatives, so it is naturally difficult to settle it, and she will not be able to finally engrave it until Concubine Xiande has seen it.
After Jia Huan finished writing, Xiaohong didn't take it, and Xiangling came over early to grab the paper.
After watching it for a long time, Xiangling couldn't help but say: "What the third master wrote is naturally excellent, but it seems to be a little worse than the few poems written by the third master before!" ”
