Luck in the heavens starts from the Red Mansion.

Chapter 106 You are too naive (please subscribe)
The court's response was quite fast!
Seeing that paper could not contain the fire, he simply issued an announcement directly.

Ma Yuan, the right servant of the Ministry of Finance, and his family were unfortunately coerced by the White Lotus Sect thieves. They may have arrived at the White Lotus Sect's rebel area in Lu Di. The imperial court is currently organizing elite rescue forces.

There is no way, the court's face still needs to be saved.

We can't directly say that Ma Yuan is a core member of the White Lotus Sect, nor can we say that he is dead.If he suddenly appeared in the rebel area, wouldn't the court be embarrassed?

As for Ma Yuan's possible "nonsense", the court didn't bother to pay attention to it.

Everyone was forced to leave the capital by the thieves of the White Lotus Sect. It was not the thieves of the White Lotus Sect who had the final say and could not count!
The White Lotus Sect launched a rebellion!
Jia Huan suddenly realized that when he found out about the area where the White Lotus Sect first launched the rebellion, how could he still not understand the court's attempt to cover up and deceive itself?

At the same time, the imperial court also announced that the eight official warehouses were destroyed by fire. They were all the work of lunatics from the White Lotus Sect. The purpose was naturally to disrupt the normal order of life in the capital.

In a short period of time, they were successful!

The imperial court needs to stabilize the price of goods in the capital. Whether it is allocating supplies from the south or from the surrounding areas, it will take a certain amount of time to give the White Lotus Sect a little more breathing space for the sudden rebellion.

The court must make this matter clear, otherwise it will be easy for him to get slapped in the face.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see the current embarrassment of the imperial court. It is impossible to raise a large amount of food supplies in a short period of time to stabilize the violently fluctuating prices in the capital.

Exaggerating at this time will only arouse ridicule and disdain, further damaging the prestige of the court!
Then, the matter of sending troops to quell the rebellion has nothing to do with Jia Huan and Ning Rong's two houses.

Ahem, the dignified top martial arts family has mixed up like this, which makes people sigh and sigh.

He had heard that a group of honorable noble families had been making frequent moves recently, and many honorable nobles of the right age had urgently joined the Beijing camp. Their intentions were self-evident.

Obviously, the major noble families did not pay attention to the rebellion launched by the White Lotus Sect at all, and thought it would be easy to quell it.

In fact, that’s pretty much it!

The White Lotus Sect can survive for hundreds of years, and its ability to confuse and mobilize the people goes without saying.

The problem is that it is difficult for the White Lotus Sect to cultivate qualified military generals and middle- and low-level officers!
Once a rebellion is launched, the demand for qualified military generals and mid- to low-level officers will be extremely high.

The combat effectiveness of the army depends on them to maintain it. This is the case in the cold weapon era!

Otherwise, where did the general families of the Song Dynasty and the border general families of the Ming Dynasty come from?
It's such a rare opportunity to deal with the White Lotus Sect without much danger and still achieve military exploits.

If we don't take the initiative at this time, do we have to go to the border to fight with the enemy country in order to be considered a meritorious service?

Not to mention that the Ning Mansion is currently in chaos, but the big guys in the Rong Mansion have no reaction at all, which can be regarded as an eye-opener for Jia Huan.

What the hell, it's okay to just show off, choose a few young tribesmen to make up the numbers, and ask old friends from the military to take them with you as personal bodyguards. It's better than not showing anything at all.

If the selected young people from the clan are not useful enough and dare not go to the front line to work hard to earn merit, then that is their business. But it would be inappropriate for the Rong Mansion to do nothing.

It would be strange if the young men in the clan who are somewhat ambitious and dare to fight would feel chilled when they see this.

You know, among the eight members of the Jia family in the capital, several are serving in the military.

Although it has been gradually marginalized and it is estimated that they will not be able to grab the official and military positions to pacify the White Lotus Sect, it is still easy to help them through the back door. The key is that the Ning Rong Second House must take the lead.

It's not like Jia Huan didn't ask Jia Qiang before during the ethnic studies class. Who would have expected that this kid has no idea about this and doesn't even know how to operate it like this?
Grass!
Jia Huan finally knew that Ningrong's second mansion had really reached the point where there was no one left to take over, and there was no successor.

The only thing that made him happy was that with the court's statement, he immediately had more money in his hands.

The artificial river from Tongzhou to Beijing directly started the twelve-hour non-stop transportation mode.

As a gang that occupies this river, just pumping some water can bring in a lot of money.

Of course, Jia Huan had already told him not to whip too hard, as this would allow the boatman and the laborers to make a little profit.

The real bulk is the various food and living supplies they mixed in the ship.

They were all purchased at low prices from villages outside the city or even from Tongzhou, and the profit was several times higher when resold.

Fortunately, the Cangchang Yamen was paralyzed at this time, allowing a bunch of green-skinned gangsters from Ningrong Street to take advantage of it and make crazy money in just a few days without any middlemen.

Of course, the benefits are exciting, not to mention the endless benefits!
However, after just a few days of making peace of mind, other forces came to look for trouble.

Ni Er and the others started a life of fighting and killing all day long and making a lot of money.This is the real world, and licking blood from the edge of a knife is just normal.

Jia Huan doesn't care about this. He is only responsible for logistics and medical services. Ni Er and the others are responsible for the rest.

Unless he encounters official trouble, he needs to show off his power.

Of course, Xue Pan couldn't bear the loneliness after all. On the one hand, he was moved by his own heart, but on the other hand, Ni Er and the others actively encouraged him, so he still plunged into the lively battle between rivers and lakes.

Again, he was rich and brought his own bodyguards. Once he entered the world, he was a mini-BOSS-level existence, which greatly relieved Ni Er and the others from a lot of burden and pressure.

"You kid, take it easy, no matter where you go, you must be surrounded by guards!" All Jia Huan can do is remind him every time they meet, and he doesn't bother to mention anything else.

After all, Xue Pan is an adult and is responsible for his own choices and Meng Lang. It's that simple.

What opened his eyes the most was the news from Ni Er and others.

Almost 80.00% of the food supplies they helped transport recently were owned by the powerful families in the city and were transferred from the farms outside the city and transported into the city.

At the same time, at the gate of the capital, every day when the city gate opens, a steady stream of food is shipped in, most of which is also produced by the rich and powerful farms in the city.

Damn, you can play six with this move!
The grain that enters the city from the city gate is the amount that these powerful people apparently possess. It is strictly supervised by the court and the government. If you dare to go too far, you will easily be regarded as a typical example.

As for the food transported to the city through artificial rivers, you can naturally sell it however you want, but of course you can't do it too much.

In this way, taking advantage of the White Lotus Sect's commotion and absorbing the people's hard-earned money through food price fluctuations, everyone can make a lot of money.

What is power? This is power!

In fact, Jia Huan can be sure that the royal family had a hand in it!
When it comes to which company in the capital has the strongest capital, it is naturally the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which provides various services to the royal family.

Damn it, look at how efficiently these guys make money and take away people's hard-earned money, and look at the indifferent Ning Rong Second Mansion, Jia Huan doesn't know what to say.

It's not that his heart is dark, but that it's not too late to follow the crowd and make a fortune, and then slowly give back to the people in the future. At least Jia Huan still has this kind heart.

It's a pity that the fields he bought at a low price from the children of the Rongfu family have hardly produced much this year. Otherwise, he would have to follow the footsteps of these powerful people and harvest them hard.

It happened to be the day for Sihai Gambling House to collect dividends, and Jia Huan rarely saw Jia Lian.

By the way, Sihai Gambling House nominally pays dividends once every six months, how could Jia Lian agree?

Then Jia Huan came up with the idea to withdraw the money in advance and wait until the time for dividends to be settled together. Anyway, it was the bookkeeper of the gambling house who was in trouble.

Naturally, Sihai Gambling House will not deny face, so when the day comes every month, brothers Jia Lian and Jia Huan will take the initiative to come and get money.

It was rare to meet Jia Lian outside, and it was a happy day to get money. The two brothers simply found a tavern to sit down and planned to have a good drink.

Jia Lian must have been very busy recently. Before the food and wine were served, he couldn't help complaining, saying that the work at Taipu Temple was really not done by humans.

After working with horses all day long, my body was smelly.

In the fall, I will have to go to the horse farms on the border to check the specific situation. I don’t know how much trouble is waiting for me.

Of course, complaints are complaints, and this guy has no intention of resigning.

After finally becoming a serious official with real power, how could he give up just as he said?

Jia Huan naturally understood what this guy was thinking, and would not make such silly remarks as saying he was too tired to do it.

"Brother Lian, haven't there been a lot of vacancies in the Ministry of Household Affairs recently?"

He chuckled and said, "Don't you think Brother Lian has any idea?"

"Well, I just went to Taipu Temple not long ago to take up the post. Isn't it a little too eager to think about transferring now?"

As expected, Jia Lian was moved. The position in the Ministry of Revenue was much more popular than that at Taipu Temple.

"Haha, I'm just talking, Brother Lian just listen to it, don't take it to heart!"

Jia Huan smiled lightly and had no intention of continuing this topic.

It doesn't matter if Jia Lian is tempted. If the second master Zheng doesn't move, no matter how many ideas he has, it will be useless. He has to talk to the second master Zheng first and then talk about other things.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Jia Lian was about to pay and leave.Jia Huan then whispered about the many dignitaries transporting food and supplies to the city through both light and dark routes.

Finally, he asked curiously: "Second brother Lian, I don't know what's going on in the house. Could it be that the old lady and the others didn't respond at all, and did they miss such a great opportunity in vain?"

"That's a huge benefit ranging from tens of thousands of taels to 10,000+ taels!"

Jia Lian was stunned at first, glanced at Jia Huan with a pair of peach blossom eyes, and said with a chuckle: "No, Brother Huan, you are a young man, but you are a caring person!"

"It's not easy to know some secret ways!"

Without waiting for Jia Huan to explain, his face fell, and he lowered his voice and said angrily: "Those guys' actions were so obvious, how could the mansion not notice it at all?"

"But so what?"

"Do you really think that the government doesn't know what's going on at the farm outside? You're too naive!"
