Heaven's Martial Fate

Chapter 994

Although I still live in the same place, the environment inside is quite different.

Jia Yun is very satisfied, but she is not in a hurry to buy a house outside.

In Dagan, family living together is the mainstream. If they are separated, no matter whether it is to take advantage of the situation or some other clan conveniences, it will be difficult to enjoy.

Fortunately, Jia Rong, the patriarch, has thought about this for a long time, and has a specific plan for the transformation of the clan's residence, which has been unanimously approved by the clan elders.

After all, at present, a large number of members of the Jia clan in the capital have official status, although most of them are from the ranks of Jiupin and Zhengjiu, but an official is an official.

How to say it has broken away from the category of people, so the place of residence should not be too casual.

According to Jia Rong's idea, the clan paid for the construction of a number of independent small courtyards of similar specifications, separate from the residences of clan members without official status.

It's not that there is an artificial distinction, but that the mainstream of society is like this.

As long as there is no problem with the ascending channel given by the clan to the clansmen, in fact, it is quite inspiring to act like this.

If there are clansmen who can be promoted to the sixth rank or above, even if they are unwilling to move, the patriarch Jia Rong will force them to leave.

It would be too eye-catching to artificially create an area where middle and high-level officials live together, and all of them are surnamed Jia, or are sons-in-law surnamed Jia.

Because of her outstanding ability, she was favored, and Jia Yun suddenly had more friends around her, all of whom looked friendly at first glance.

Jia Qin's sudden visit made Jia Yun wary.

They are all of the same age, Jia Yun has a deep understanding of Jia Qin, this guy is not a good bird.

If he did something inappropriate, it would be quite troublesome to drag him into the water.

Sure enough, Jia Qin wasn't of a temper that could hold her breath, and she just made her mind clear within a few words of greeting when they met.

He wanted to partner with Jia Yun to contract most of the material supplies for the construction of the Provincial Hospital.

"Where did you get the money?"

He was noncommittal about Jia Qin's move to grab it, but he wanted to figure out whether Jia Qin was on his own whim or someone pushed him behind the scenes.

Jia Yun is a caring person. When she was a warehouse envoy in Tongzhou, she paid great attention to and put a lot of thought into the situation near Jinmen Port.

Inadvertently learned that most of the planning and design of Jinmen Port were completed by a group of students from Ningfu Women's School.

This shocked him very much, and he paid more attention to the Ningfu Girls' School.

Not to mention, who are the female students!

When I was still in office a few years ago, I suddenly heard that the construction of Rongfu Provincial Family Hospital was handed over to the Ningfu female school students.

He immediately realized that the previous news was true.

In addition to being curious in my heart, I also made up my mind that I would never participate in the affairs of the provincial hospital.

Unexpectedly, Jia Qin was so stubborn.

He spoke bluntly, saying that he wanted to sell materials to female students at a high price, but he didn't know where the confidence came from?
Jia Yun did not directly refuse, but asked Jia Qin's details on the sidelines.

This guy is not one who can hide things, he poured out everything after a few glasses of water and wine, and he still looks complacent.

As expected, the mastermind behind it turned out to be Butler Lai!
It turned out that the housekeeper Lai saw that the female students of the provincial hospital were not easy to provoke, so he went around a detour and found Jia Qin.

Just say a few words casually, and talk about it after giving some benefits.

Jia Qin's brain was also flooded, and he immediately thought of partnering with Jia Yun.

No way, who told Jia Yun to be famous for her loyalty, and her family fortune has gradually become stronger?

Jia Yun didn't have the guts to participate in such a thing. If she was not careful, she might offend the patriarch, and that was no joke.

Jia Qin, who was drunk and confused, was sent away with a few sentences. Jia Yun thought it was wrong, but ran to Ning Mansion immediately to report.

Naturally, this is not considered a whistleblower, but I just don't want to involve myself in it.

If something happened, Jia Qin's peeing nature might drag him into the water, which means that Jia Yun also agreed to participate.

At that time, the yellow mud will fall into the crotch, and it will be shit or shit.

After hearing Jia Yun's report, Jia Rong didn't intend to go to war.

I just asked about Jia Yun's situation in Tongzhou, and told him to go back to work as soon as possible and not to stay here in the capital.

Jia Yun was a little puzzled, but she could still listen to her advice.

He guessed that Jia Rong might have other considerations.He was too lazy to say anything, and left the capital quickly after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to return to his post.

On Jia Rong's side, she communicated with Qin Keqing and told Qin Keqing not to rush to tell Xue Baochai and the others that he wanted to see how the little girls behaved.

It's just that I didn't expect this matter to come to Mrs. Wang.

I don't know what Mrs. Wang thinks, but she still wants to join in.

Not to mention that Xue Baochai and the others were a little dumbfounded, even onlookers like Jia Rong and Qin Keqing were a little at a loss.

Nima, did you make a mistake? The Family Visiting Hospital was built to entertain Yuan Chun. Could it be possible for you, your biological mother, to make money while building it?

It’s really wonderful to have it every year, especially this year!
Besides, nearly 90 taels of construction expenses were raised before, and the cost will not exceed 10 taels at most. The rest, except for the purchase of antique ornaments, must be included in the public account. Isn't Mrs. Wang in charge?
Anyway, Jia Rong couldn't figure out Mrs. Wang's mind, but she wouldn't make her mess up.

You know, the surge in material costs is still relatively light, and I'm afraid that Lai Da and Jia Qin are just shoddy, and that's the end of the calf.

When something happened, Lai Da pushed Jia Qin, so he couldn't just send Jia Qin to the prison for retirement, right?

But before he could make a move, Xue Baochai and other female students had already dealt with the trouble, which was really impressive.

When I asked later, I realized that Xue Baochai was also pulling the tiger's skin to scare people, but Jia Qin and Lai Da behind him were indeed frightened.

The matter is very simple, Xue Baochai immediately became angry when he saw Jia Qin making a lot of noise.

Originally, Jia Qin made it an internal matter of the Jia family, and it was not easy for her to get involved, and she always had various scruples.

But when the trouble came to Mrs. Wang, it was difficult to deal with it in a low-key manner.

Mrs. Wang is easy to talk to, after all, Xue Baochai is her niece, and the relationship is quite good, but she has always regarded Xue Baochai as a backup for Jia Baoyu to get married.

But Zhou Rui's family around Mrs. Wang is not so easy to deal with. This guy obviously wants to take advantage of it.

In addition, even the old lady's side, there is also some movement.

After all, the Rongfu family has always been very courageous in having a child, and they don't care whether it will disturb the old lady for the sake of profit.

I'm afraid they would like to be alarmed, the old lady has always been tolerant and magnanimous, even if she knew what they were thinking, she would not care too much.

When Sanchun is free, basically every evening, he has to have dinner with the old lady, and accompany the old lady to talk and amuse her.

They also heard a few words from the old lady recently, which are still common topics, such as family and everything.

Facing the old lady, Sanchun didn't have the courage to say anything more, and the old lady didn't make her words too clear, and it was difficult for them to climb up the pole.

But that's what it means, according to Sanchun's understanding, it's just to give those noisy guys some benefits and just keep their mouths shut.

Sanchun was naturally not happy, and Xue Baochai was even more unhappy.

She is quite clear that if the opening is released, the construction cost of the Provincial Hospital will more than double, it is not a joke at all.

Maybe, the 20 taels of silver allocated by Rongfu is not enough.

Once the price of materials skyrocketed, would the rest of the construction materials also skyrocket?
The prices of these materials are still transparent, and there are antique ornaments whose prices are not very transparent. Does it cost a lot of money to purchase?
What precious flowers and plants, what famous small opera singers in the south of the Yangtze River and so on, the total cost of zero and zero is afraid that it will cost 50 taels.

No kidding!

That is to say, before Xue Baochai came up with the list of construction costs, otherwise those sons and daughters would really dare to toss the construction cost of the provincial hospital to one million taels or even higher.

Anyway, they are all sucking Rongfu's blood, and they don't mind sucking more and more fun at all.

If Xue Baochai hadn't known that Jia Rong's deliberate investigation was involved in the construction of the provincial house that she presided over this time, she might have wanted to quit.

Look, even if the old lady and Mrs. Wang don't care about giving birth to a family and making money, why is she so cautious as an outsider?
After going through this incident, Rong Mansion made her very disappointed.

Xue Baochai dared to assert that if the Rong Mansion had been headed by the old lady and Mrs. Wang, it would be impossible to completely rise.

The men are fighting outside, but here in the backyard, the family is allowed to give birth to the wall. Which family can flourish in such a situation?
Unless there is a heavenly genius in Rongfu who can be promoted quickly through military exploits, otherwise he will have to wait until Lian Er's generation is in charge if he wants to restore his prosperity.

If it hadn't been for not wanting to disappoint Jia Rong, who was silently paying attention, Xue Baochai would definitely not continue to visit the muddy waters of the provincial hospital.

Her reason for dealing with Jia Qin is very simple, that is, to make a written statement.

The relatives' hospital is used to receive the empresses in the palace, and it belongs to the royal family in name.

After the construction is completed, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Internal Affairs must send personnel from the relevant functional yamen to inspect and accept, and sign a formal document of acceptance.

Once there are problems and accidents during the acceptance process, it is not a simple matter, and if it is not done well, it will be held accountable by the royal family.

After all, Dagan is a feudal ethics dynasty, and the strict rules and regulations are quite strict.

Once the provincial court fails to pass the inspection, it can easily be defined as disrespect to the emperor, which is no small crime.

When Jia Qin heard this, she panicked immediately.

Naturally, he didn't dare to make a promise or even make a written statement, so he went to find the behind-the-scenes commentator Lai to ask what happened.

Lai Da was also a little dumbfounded, he had never heard of this before.

For a while, he was a little bit on the wax. It was obvious that Jia Qin didn't want to take the blame, and it was even more impossible for Lai Da to jump directly to the front desk.

What he can do is to perfunctory Jia Qin. Xue Baochai's words are scaring him, and things will definitely not be like this.

Jia Qin was dubious, but it was impossible for him to make written evidence.

But not long after the Provincial Hospital started work, when Xue Baochai invited relevant personnel from the Ministry of Industry to check it through the relationship of his uncle Wang Ziteng, Jia Qin was completely paralyzed.

In fact, Xue Baochai's behavior is also related to some of the courses she has taken in the women's school.

Those courses were naturally created by Jia Rong.

The reason why he came up with such a course is very simple. He wants to tell the female students that procedural justice is a very important part of any matter related to the government or the royal family.

For example, the Grand View Garden in the story of the Red Chamber, from the construction to the concubine's family visit, was handled by the Rongfu, and there was no such thing as the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

For modern people, this is quite unbelievable.

That is the Provincial Family Hospital, which is nominally owned by the royal family. How could the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Internal Affairs not be involved?
If something happens to the Grand View Garden in the future, who will be responsible?
Later, Rong Mansion no longer had money to support the Grand View Garden, so they directly played tricks like the contract responsibility system. The royal family could use this as an excuse to directly tell Rong Mansion that they could not afford to eat, and others had nothing to say.

If it is true, every plant and tree in the Grand View Garden is owned by the royal family.

Whenever something goes wrong, the Rong Mansion can be held accountable.

But if, from the beginning of the construction of the Grand View Garden, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent officials to participate in it, and when the construction of the Grand View Garden was completed, and the two government officials were called to inspect and accept it, the situation would naturally be quite different.

Even if the Grand View Garden is destroyed in the future, unless it is confirmed that it was done by the Rongfu, it will not have much to do with the Rongfu.

The royal family can't use the matter of the Grand View Garden to trouble the Rong Mansion.

Because both the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Internal Affairs were involved, and there was a written acceptance document, the responsibility lies with these two yamen first.

Obviously, Xue Baochai is learning and applying it flexibly.

As for the effect, see if Lai Da and Jia Qin die down quickly, and you will know if there is a significant effect.

Even Mrs. Wang, who was a little ready to move, has no relevant rumors.

Including Xue Baochai, the little girls who were in charge of supervising the construction of the provincial hospital were in mixed and happy moods.

Anyway, this time, they were taught a lesson.

Even Sanchun couldn't admit it, sometimes it was necessary to use external force to deal with an existence like Rongfu.

The four major stewards, the Jia family members, and so on, never jumped out again, wanting to participate in the construction of the Provincial House, to make money.

However, Xue Baochai didn't block the door. He still purchased some unimportant materials and distributed them to the elders of the Jia family, who presided over the distribution.

Although he didn't get much money, it can only be said to be hard money, but it's good to earn something.

At least, it will not appear again. In the story of the Red Mansion, Jia Qiang from the Ningfu went to Jiangnan with a huge sum of 5 taels of silver to purchase fashionable fabrics and small actors.

Nima, what kind of fabric and a small actor need to spend a huge sum of 5 taels of silver, it's just like a joke.

But this kind of thing is not uncommon in the story of the Red Mansion, so it can only show that Rongfu's management is incompetent.

Also since then, the old lady never said anything to Sanchun specifically about family and Wanshixing...
