The Coral of the Red Mansion Does Not Return
Chapter 45
Shui Rong saw that he was interested and wanted to sell well, so he came one by one.
He first talked about the rise to fame of Biyulou.
It turned out that there was a prostitute in Yangzhou, named Yanliu, who loved the green color the most. I don't know which guest, who noticed the word "biyu" in Biyu Tower, bought a set of hairdresses with a lot of money, and gave it to Yanliu.After Yan Liudai came out, everyone present was astonished, and the son of Yangzhou prefect even spent a lot of money for her, redeeming her to come out.
Unexpectedly, the good times didn't last long, the son of the prefect of Yangzhou was actually a ruthless one, he got tired of her after a month or two, Yanliu was tortured by the old woman into a shapeless shape, and was even slandered for having an affair with others.To show her innocence, Yanliu jumped down from the attic where she was living while wearing that set of jasper jewelry, and the jade was shattered to death.
However, some poets heard about it, felt a little bit in their hearts, and wrote an "Ode to Jasper".Its words are gorgeous, and it has a lingering fragrance after reading; its sentiment is so sad that tears flow down the face after reading it; its warning is even more thought-provoking, and many people use it to warn their children.
"Jasper Fu" says: Is she a beauty?Is it jasper? ... There used to be a golden house to hide the beauty, but now there is a jasper makeup willow... How sad!The beauty is steadfast, just like this jasper! ...
It is from this article that people in Yangzhou who love jade are no longer only famous prostitutes and wealthy businessmen's wives, but also officials' wives and ladies in deep boudoirs also wear jasper, which symbolizes innocence and steadfastness.
Jia Hu is very clear about this, Gein's "Jade Fu" was prepared by him a long time ago, and for this, he suffered a lot of blood to let Sun Muge keep it a secret for him.He cast a wide net in Yangzhou, and this is the only thing that can be used to make a fuss.Fortunately, he did not live up to his expectations, and the initial investment has now been recouped.
However, what does this have to do with the big event in the water-soluble mouth?
"Don't worry." Shui Rong said, "I think the Biyu Tower is also attracting people's attention."
It turns out that jadeite has a good reputation since ancient times. In "Stone Elegance", there is an introduction to jadeite from the Zhou Dynasty. Ouyang Xiu of the Song Dynasty accidentally rubbed a gold ring on a jade bottle, and found that the gold flakes fell off one after another, like inkstone grinding ink.Since then, jadeite has the name of "gold like grinding", which is one of the reasons why it is called "steadfast" in "Jasper Fu".
"Gold has a price and jade is priceless", and the origin of jadeite is Tengchong and Dali, which is extremely rare.In fact, Biyulou did not sell many, only a dozen or so sets, and two of them were given away.Although it seems to be very popular in the capital, how long has it been since the eldest princess went to the banquet, and it is estimated that people who are going to Yangzhou have just set off.
Even so, it is still enviable.
"...A censor said that jadeite was originally produced in Tengchong and Dali. Where did the owner of Biyulou get so much jadeite? I am afraid that he is suspected of collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country. Please make a decision."
"This year's tribute to Tengchong includes jadeite. Since it is a tribute, is it inappropriate to buy and sell it among the people? The owner of Biyu Pavilion is suspected of committing a crime of disrespect!"
Jia Hu's expression was distorted, he never imagined that these officials could be so brazen.
As early as in Yangzhou, the shopkeeper said that some wealthy businessmen in Yangzhou wanted to join forces.Heh, he has a purchase channel, he also has a processing place, and the market has opened up. What is he going to do as a partner?Of course, Jia Hu ordered the shopkeeper to refuse, but who knows, there are more than one wealthy businessman, and he even said that he wanted the Biyu Tower to look good.
This is their back trick?If he really has no power or power, he really has no choice but to submit, but unfortunately...
etc!Jia Hu remembered, it seemed that he hadn't reported this matter to Jia She.
Jia Hu wants to cry but has no tears.
Shui Rong noticed that his complexion was different, and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
Jia Hu laughed and said, "I just thought that I also bought Biyulou jewelry for my mother."
Shui Rong felt relieved and said with a smile: "Although it is a tribute, it is not forbidden to buy and sell in this court, let alone use. Besides, according to your family's status, this so-called disrespect is just a joke."
"Then, in your opinion," Jia Hu tentatively asked, "Is it possible for the Biyu Tower to collude with the enemy and betray the country?"
Shui Rong only thought that Jia Hu was still not at ease about this, and said: "If the master behind that is someone in the court, it will be fine. If there is no one, I'm afraid there will be a lot of blood. In any case, the buyer will not be involved."
He said again, "Traitor of the country? Is selling something from another country a traitor to the country? There are so many sellers of foreign goods in the capital, and many clans have bought shares in foreign ships. Who dares to join them and betray the country."
Having said that, Jia Hu was a little relieved.
The ancient times and the modern times are really different. He is clearly familiar with the law, but who knows that they don't follow the routine.He managed to get through the line in Tengchong. If the Jade Tower was sealed off, then this batch of emeralds would be in his hands.
Jia Hu calmed down for a while, Shui Rong took a look at his face, and then got down to business: "You don't know, do you? Among the few people who invited you this time, Niu Jizong, the grandson of Duke Zhen..." Balabala said a lot, Jia Huqiang Make yourself listen carefully, which will help him understand the market in the capital.
After listening, Jia Hu understood.The person who co-authored it also came to sell it, but he understood it.
Before leaving, Jia Hu paused at the door of the box, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Jia Hu thank you for your kindness. Tomorrow's banquet, I would like to invite your Majesty to introduce me."
Shui Rong was overjoyed, and said: "It's natural, Jia Hu, you haven't seen them in six or seven years. At that time, I will send someone to pick you up, and we will go to the restaurant together."
Jia Hu nodded, thank you again.
Back at the mansion, Jia Hu hesitated for a moment.I only made my mother angry in the morning, and now that it's over, I wonder if my mother has calmed down?Jia Hu was not one to run away, since he had made up his mind, he went directly to Lanfangyuan.
In Lanfang Courtyard, Mrs. Liu received the news that Jia Hu would not come back for dinner at noon, and she couldn't help feeling a little annoyed that she had spoken too loudly.Jia Amnesty also came back from court at this time, because he asked what was the matter.
Mrs. Liu said one by one, and Jia She said, "Huer is also thinking about Lian'er. He is naturally quiet, but he doesn't know that Lian'er is not good at studying." Sooner or later, my son will be separated, we can't let him walk around the capital as a lowly official like my second brother, right?"
Liu stressed helplessly: "How many times have I said this! Lian'er is very smart! It's not that he doesn't like reading, it's just that he's too young!" She asked, "Do you think Lian'er is too playful?"
Jia She nodded and couldn't help saying, "Hu'er is right, at his age, he would never waste time like Lian'er."
Mrs. Liu didn't answer, but asked again: "Do you think Lian'er's enlightenment is too late?"
Jia She continued to nod and wanted to speak again.
Mrs. Liu interrupted hastily, and finally, asked very solemnly: "Do you think that Lian'er will fail the examinations for scholars, candidates, and Jinshi in the future?"
Jia Amnesty was stunned, thought for a while, and nodded solemnly.As if afraid of hurting Jia Lian's self-esteem, he added: "Scholar may be possible."
Liu rolled her eyes.
She hasn't done this kind of unladylike action for many years.
She began to popularize science with Jia Amnesty: "Our Liu family is a scholarly family, do you admit it?"
Jia Amnesty nodded, with infinite admiration, this is the ultimate goal of the Jia family.
"Our Liu family, regardless of gender, is enlightened at the age of six."
Jia Amnesty couldn't help interjecting, "That's official, if it's just taught by relatives, it will start at the age of three!"
Mrs. Liu had no choice but to stop giving examples of the enlightenment age of the Gu family, the Zhou family, and a series of scholarly families, and said, "Aren't I teaching my son? Also, Hu'er said today that he should invite Lian'er to have a husband. "
Jia She said sternly: "Then I definitely don't agree."
Liu was angry and funny, gave him a look, and continued: "...Look, most people are enlightened only when they are six years old."
Jia She nodded wildly.
"That Lian'er will also be enlightened at the age of six, the kind sir."
Jia Amnesty still nodded.
"So? What's the problem?" Mrs. Liu was too lazy to explain to the father and son.
"Um, it seems there is no problem?" Jia She thought uncertainly, he thought carefully and thought again, and suddenly realized, "Don't invite Mr., let Hu'er teach Lian'er to read."
He said again: "Hu'er said he's fine, it's just enlightenment, just teach him to memorize books every day, it won't delay his study."
How is that different from asking for a gentleman?Liu stroked his forehead in despair.
She touched Lian'er's head and said to herself, Lian'er, mother can't bear it anymore, this father and son don't understand human language.If you want to blame, blame your father and brother.Anyway, after teaching for a while, your brother will understand.
Jia Lian still smiled heartlessly, looking at this and then that.Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Brother is back!" He jumped out of Liu Shi's arms, rushed into Jia Hu's arms like a small cannonball, and asked excitedly: "Brother, did you bring Lian'er?" delicious?"
Jia Hu smiled and motioned him to look at the food box in the hands of the big maid behind him.Jia Lian opened it with cheers, then turned her head and asked, "Where's sister's?"
Seeing Jia Lian's expectant eyes, Jia Hu said generously, "Your sister's has already been delivered, and this belongs to you alone."
Jia Lian couldn't wait to eat, because Jia Lian couldn't eat much after lunch, so Liu Shi went with him.
Only then did Jia Hu look at her mother.He has adjusted his mentality and is about to apologize to his mother.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Mrs. Liu said: "Hu'er, you can teach Lian'er to read tomorrow. Your father and I agree."
Jia She looked at Jia Hu triumphantly, his eyes were full of victory.
Unexpectedly, his aggressive method really made his father unleash his potential. Jia Hu couldn't help laughing, and insisted on pleading guilty to his mother.
Mrs. Liu generously said nothing, and said: "If you regret it, just tell me. Don't be embarrassed, I'm your mother."
Although he didn't think he would regret it, Jia Hu still nodded, leaving himself a way out.
After talking about Jia Lian, Liu turned to talk about Jia Hu's marriage.
"Hu'er, did your father tell you last night?" Mrs. Liu was reluctant, but still said, "What do you think of the marriage that the old Duke and the Zhou family agreed upon verbally?"
He first talked about the rise to fame of Biyulou.
It turned out that there was a prostitute in Yangzhou, named Yanliu, who loved the green color the most. I don't know which guest, who noticed the word "biyu" in Biyu Tower, bought a set of hairdresses with a lot of money, and gave it to Yanliu.After Yan Liudai came out, everyone present was astonished, and the son of Yangzhou prefect even spent a lot of money for her, redeeming her to come out.
