To get rich quickly, you need to be simple and rough

The situation in the Jia family was changing quietly, and the first to be affected was the phoenix egg Baoyu. In the past, Mrs. Wang would give her son whatever was good or expensive.

Anyway, it's public money and it would be a waste if it isn't spent. Jia Zheng's retainers are also the biggest spenders.

Now Jia She has control over the economic lifeline of the Jia family, and the dividends for each master at the end of this year have increased by 30%.

But it is a dream for the mansion to spend money freely now, because the eldest master controls the external accounting office.

The inner treasury was filled with almost nothing but furniture, furnishings, and utensils.

Now Jia She, under the pretext of letting each family have some leeway, gave each family's annual expenses in advance. And then nothing happened.

The outer account office was now only responsible for the food and drink of the people in the mansion, as well as the repairs of the houses. Even the money for winter charcoal was sent to each room.

It looked like a huge sum of money, but in fact, the things distributed by the government in the past were useless, so each family had to make up for it themselves. This was a good thing for the poorer clansmen and those who knew how to make a living like Li Wan.

Jia Baoyu used to be the center of attention and had everything he wanted, but now he has to rely on subsidies from Lady Wang and Lady Jia to maintain that kind of life.

Lady Jia was so angry that her heart ached, but there was nothing she could do. Her eldest son was careless and took full advantage of the situation. If this matter were to be made public, it would be considered that Jia Zheng's family was ungrateful.

He got no benefits at all and was only criticized by outsiders as an ungrateful person.

It's like boiling dumplings in a teapot and not being able to pour them out. Now the kitchen serves dishes strictly according to the portion size.

Your portion of meat and vegetables is predetermined; this is the family law passed down from generation to generation. In the entire mansion, only Grandmother Jia has the privilege of ordering whatever she wants from the menu.

Jia She was given the reputation of being filial, and Jia Baoyu now eats with his mother every day.

The most pitiful one was Jia Zheng. Only when he found out that he had to pay for all the guests' expenses did he finally lower his head to look at the financial situation of his family.

Although Mrs. Wang usually behaves like a virtuous person, she only uses public funds to spend generously on others. It is a dream to ask her to use the money to support Jia Zheng's guests.

Jia Zheng seemed still in his dream, and in a few words he said that the family was broke and that they had to rely on their allowances to make ends meet. Mrs. Wang then said hypocritically, "My lord, life is difficult, and my uncle has taken control of the money in the outer courtyard. I have no other choice now.

I have a pair of gold necklaces in my dowry. Now that I am old, I can't wear those bright things. How about you pawn them to relieve your pain?"

Jia Zheng still has some dignity to maintain. If he spends his wife's dowry, he will not be able to hold his head up high. Jia Zheng has no choice but to act like a spoiled child in front of his grandmother at such an old age.

Grandmother Jia sighed and gave Jia Zheng five thousand taels of silver. Her eldest son now looked sweet on the outside but bitter on the inside, as if his powerful mother-in-law had returned to the world.

She usually doesn't bother this son, out of sight, out of mind. She raised her youngest son with love, but when will this end?

Now my youngest son and his family all need me to support them. Yesterday, Baoyu twisted himself around like a piece of candy and coaxed him out of another thousand taels.

Even if I were made of iron, I could only hammer a few nails. The income from my dowry shop is not enough for these people to spend.

Jia Zheng had no choice but to dismiss several of his guests and stopped importing new antiques, rare stones, calligraphy and paintings. This was the only way he could maintain the Second Master's dignity.

What made Mrs. Wang even more upset was Yuanchun's expenses in the palace, which now had no place to be reimbursed.

You tried to reason with Jia She, but he immediately contradicted you: "Second brother, I'm not saying that I never agreed with my niece going to that shameful place before.

The flowering period of such a good child has been delayed. Why don’t we ask someone to bring the child back? What will happen if this continues?

Even if there is a mountain of gold at home, it won’t resist any trouble! "

Jia Zheng was so angry that his liver ached, but there was nothing he could do because what the other person said was true. Jia Zheng was not good at speaking and was rejected with a cold shoulder.

Mrs. Wang was so angry that she had no choice but to use her own private money to supplement the family income. She would also run to Lady Jia every now and then to cry about how difficult it was for Jia Yuanchun.

After a long time, Lady Jia became annoyed with Lady Wang because all she did was ask for money and cry.

Here, Jia Jing paved the way for his grandson and sent him to Boyuan County, Guaduzhou, to be a seventh-rank county magistrate. Jia Jing was originally very nervous, fearing that the emperor would not approve.

Who knew that the emperor would approve it without even a pause, and Jia Jing finally felt relieved. This time, he had won the gamble.

Now Jia Jing did not mention returning to the Taoist temple at all. Jia Rong and his family packed their luggage. Jia Jing gave his grandson a bill of exchange for 50,000 taels and told Jia Rong:

"Listen more to Master Qian. This is the master I asked someone to invite from your great-uncle in Yangzhou.

The important thing is to live a good life with your wife and give me a great-grandson as soon as possible.

Qin Keqing had a special status and she had no shortage of money. After all, she was the daughter of the late crown prince and had enough private money.

Several people left Jia Jing's sight in a carriage.

Jia Jing felt much relieved after completing a big task, but the old man couldn't sit still!

So Jia Zhen and Youshi, who had just recovered from their leg problems at the farm, were taken back to the mansion, and Jia Zhen's hard days finally began.

Jia Jing despised his son's lack of knowledge the most, so Jia Zhen lived a life of hard work.

He lost a lot of weight in just a few days. Even though he was so old, his palms were swollen like big buns because of the beatings from his father.

Lin Ruhai from Yangzhou has made a fortune recently. The large amount of glass in his space has come in handy. They are all stocks produced by slaves in the previous small world.

No one would want this thing in modern times, but it is a treasure here.

Lin Ruhai took advantage of the maritime trade to sell domestic products as imported goods. These transparent glasses soon found their way into the homes of the wealthy.

Who has the patience to see the house in pitch black? No matter how bright the green screens or the translucent paper are, they can't compare to this big piece of bright glass.

The emperor in the palace used glass windows to review memorials, and the ninth prince also received a lot of gifts from Lin Ruhai.

He was so extravagant that he secretly built a greenhouse with glass on his farm. In the middle of winter, he couldn't even get a single vegetable to eat and his hands were covered with thorns.

A variety of vegetables are carefully planted on a piece of land of one hundred square meters, and dozens of kilograms can be harvested at a time.

The ninth prince picked up the tip and sent it to the emperor first, then to his mother, and then to his brothers, each of them gave some to try.

The emperor nodded with satisfaction. Xiaojiu was filial, kind to his brothers and an honest child.

What the superior likes, the subordinates will like even more. Thus, the reputation of the Ninth Prince's filial piety spread like wildfire.

The third and fifth princes were so angry that their teeth were itching, and the ninth prince was not someone to be trifled with either.

Concubine An in the palace was targeted by two factions, but Concubine An was not a pushover. They would find ways to let the emperor know her situation in a roundabout way.

They were all revealed in a subtle and unobtrusive way, which convinced the emperor even more.
