Chapter 151 Money touches people’s hearts

Chapter 151 Money touches people’s hearts (please subscribe)
The people in Rong Mansion have a peaceful and happy attitude, and the stewards of the farm below are similar.

According to modern terms, it means that it is completely corrupt and degenerate, and it is addicted to enjoyment and cannot extricate itself.

Faced with the unexpected team that raided their homes, the stewards of the Eight Great Farms had almost no power to resist.

The tenants below, as well as the young man who is attached to the village, don't dare to let go of one more thing!
As soon as the home raiding team arrived, they made it clear that they were the "imperial envoys" sent by the Rong Mansion. Unless they were completely tied to Zhuangtou's interests, no one would act recklessly.

Next, there are the details of the home raid that we love to hear about.

By the time Jia Huan received the detailed information, two days had passed!

There is no way, confiscating a house is a delicate job, some properties have become physical objects, and it is difficult to determine the price for a while. As for transporting them back to Beijing, it is not a small trouble.

But even so, the amount of cash copied out alone was 15 taels!

What is this concept?
Anyway, when the money was delivered to the front yard of Rong Mansion, Master Zheng's eyes were spitting fire.

The whole Rong Mansion was in a sensation!

Whenever a family with some free time has a child, they have to come to the front yard to take a look. How much is the 15 taels of white money piled together?
Some subsequent properties whose prices are difficult to estimate, excluding houses and the like, were worth almost 15.Including the houses and shops bought outside and in the city, the total must exceed 40 taels.

On this day, the front yard of Rong Mansion was very busy. Many accountants affiliated with Rong Mansion were urgently transferred to the farm to settle accounts.

Mr. Zheng Er's face was always dark from beginning to end!

When I heard Jia Huan's encouragement before, I thought it was impossible. Even if the head of the farm could make money, he wouldn't be able to have that much wealth!

Who knew reality would give him a slap in the face!

Fortunately, Jia Huan was very sensible and didn't wander around, otherwise Master Zheng would have been embarrassed.

His understanding of a family-born child is actually worse than that of an eight-year-old bastard, and it would be embarrassing to tell anyone about it.

Wang Xifeng was also shocked. Regardless of the difference between men and women, she ran to the front yard to check the situation.

Seeing those boxes of white money, I gritted my teeth with hatred!
Recalling the various scenes of complaining in front of me at the head of the farm, I felt my face burning with panic.

Fortunately, she thought it was not easy to manage the farm at that time, but she never expected that it would be such a 'not easy' method.

At the same time, I also felt a little gloating in my heart. These village owners were unlucky, and the old lady and second wife, Mrs. Wang, were also devastated, and they felt a little happy for no reason.

Mr. Zheng Er made it very clear to her that from now on the eight farms would be managed by the outer court.

The majority of the income will be sent to the public school as a source of various expenses for the house.

If this was said by the second wife, Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng would only believe it three points.

But this was said by Mr. Zheng Er, and Wang Xifeng believed it. This is the credibility of an honest person.

With the output of the Eight Great Farms as a guarantee, the financial situation of the public school will suddenly improve, and her burden will be reduced by half, which is naturally a good thing.

The only pity is that she cannot personally take charge of the Eight Great Farms. For Wang Xifeng, who loves power and likes to seize power, this is indeed a pity.

She also didn't think about it. If the eight large farms outside the city were managed by her, would they be able to withstand the constant poaching by the old lady and the second wife, Mrs. Wang?
Wang Xifeng probably knew what was going on, but she just didn't want to think too much about it.

On this day, Rongqing Hall was very quiet, and the old lady didn't react at all.

However, the maids who were close to her could clearly sense that the old lady was not in a good mood.

As for Sanchun, he went directly to Xichun's courtyard in Ning Mansion to play and wouldn't be back for a while.

It can be said that this time the old lady was also severely slapped in the face.

Under Jia Huan's instigation, Mr. Zheng Er directly gave the old lady a detailed list of the house raids.

Looking at the list of house searches on the desk, the old lady's emotions were quite complicated, and her face naturally didn't look good.

It's not that Mr. Zheng Er is a slap in the face, but he didn't expect that the courage of those farm leaders would be so bold. It's really unimaginable.

Originally, according to her idea, these village heads could only make a few thousand taels of silver at most.

Such a small amount of money and water, based on the hard work of the village leaders, the old lady can still accept it.

But the numbers shown on the list totaled more than 40 taels of silver. Even the old lady would never tolerate such a thing happening.

Needless to say, most of them were obtained from poaching the corners of Rong Mansion.As for the rest, it was illegal property obtained by bullying others.Don’t we have to borrow the name of Rongfu?
The most unhappy person was Mrs. Wang. She had a good and stable source of income and asked Mr. Zheng directly to cut it off.

As for the abnormal property of the head of the farm, what does it have to do with her?
She really wanted Mr. Zheng Er to return the 10 taels of silver that he had previously supported, but she was a little embarrassed to ask, so she found the old lady.

He hesitated and expressed his thoughts, which made the old lady angry and happy.

I don’t know how the Wang family teaches their daughter. Mrs. Wang’s money-hungry temperament is an eye-opener for even the old lady.

Fortunately, Mrs. Wang still had the nerve to mention the 10 taels of silver she had supported earlier!

Do you really think that the second wife will be supported by Mrs. Wang’s dowry money?

When Mr. Zheng got married, he had at least hundreds of thousands of assets in his hands.

A small part of these assets are controlled by Mr. Zheng himself, and most of them are under the control of Mrs. Wang. Do you really think that the old lady is deaf and blind and doesn’t understand?It is simply renting out shops and fields. In the past few years, 10 taels have been unstoppable.

The old lady didn't say anything unpleasant, she just asked Mrs. Wang to find Mr. Zheng Er. She wouldn't care about this matter. Do you still want to be old-faced?
Mrs. Wang left in disappointment. She only went to Mr. Zheng Er when her brain was in trouble.

The leader next to her, Zhou Rui's family, actually gave Mrs. Wang a bad idea.

Didn't Mr. Zheng Er say that all the eight farmlands outside the city would be brought under the control of the outer court?

My wife can suggest to Mr. Zheng that Zhou Rui and a few other confidants should be in charge of the affairs.

At that time, the wealth of the farm can still fall into Mrs. Wang's pocket, even more than before!

Mrs. Wang thinks this idea is a good one, and she has some expectations in her heart, but now is not a good time.

"Second brother, if you copied the Eight Great Farms, do you get half of my score?"

Here, Master Pardon heard the news and came over to check it out without stopping.

When he saw several boxes of white money, his eyes immediately lit up, and he went to Mr. Zheng Er and spoke directly.

"Brother, this is what happened!"

Mr. Zheng Er was not angry at all, but repeated what Jia Huan had reminded him before: "If I cannot complete the task of repaying the bank this time, all my previous achievements will be wiped out!"

"Not only that, Lian'er will also be affected. The best result is to be sent to sit on the bench in a quiet yamen, or to work as a coolie in places that require hard work!"

Master Pardon didn't feel much. Anyway, Jia Lian was not close to him. As for the official positions below the third rank, he couldn't see it at all.

Mr. Zheng was not in a hurry and continued: "Not only that, those officials who have been offended by me will definitely launch an extremely violent impeachment. I am afraid that my eldest brother will be affected!"

"What kind of impact method?"

Master Pardon was a little unhappy and said angrily: "I'm particularly bothered by the troubles in the court!"

"I haven't done much serious work. I've been going around impeachment all day long. I don't know how I can be so energetic. From time to time, I have to affect innocent people!"

"Perhaps some of the things eldest brother has done will be impeached if certain officials can't see it, or if they violate national laws and family rules!"

Mr. Zheng Er smiled bitterly and said: "Just like Brother Zhen before, originally they were targeting me, but in the end Brother Zhen was in bad luck!"

"Forget it, I won't ask you for the money I copied this time!"

Hearing Jia Zhen's name, Mr. Pardon shivered. That was really not a good example.

Thinking that this was indeed the case, he waved his hand and said: "But when the farm produces more output in the future, I will definitely share half of the profit, and I can't let you take it all!"

"This one……"

Second Master Zheng was confused: "I have made it clear to Lian's daughter-in-law before!"

"The bulk of the farm's harvest will be sent to the palace for government expenditure!"

"You guy!"

Master Pardon was so angry that he almost vomited blood, but finally said: "In this case, you still have microcephaly, just give me half of it!"

After saying that, without waiting for Mr. Zheng Er to speak, he turned around and walked away and said, "This matter has been decided like this!"

Mr. Zheng Er watched Mr. Pardon leave with a slight smile on his face.

If you want to talk about what's wrong with Mr. Pardon, I really can't find any obvious problem.

What does a problem like lust for sex mean in a big family?
Not to mention, Master Pardon has no use for force, it was all bought with money.

This alone is much better than those famous libertines, and can even be said to be better than 90.00% of the dandies in the capital.

As for antiques and the like, Mr. Pardon all bought them with silver.

The stone idiot in the original novel Red Mansions, it would be unfair to place the responsibility for his death entirely on Master Pardon. He was just an inducement.

If nothing else, compared to Jia Zhen, Mr. Pardon is much better.

His daughter-in-law Wang Xifeng, at least her appearance is not much worse than Qin Keqing's. Have you ever seen Master Pardon have any inappropriate behavior or thoughts towards her?

This time, facing the possibility of tens of thousands of taels of profits a year, he immediately changed his attitude when he heard that he would compete with his daughter-in-law for a share. At least he did not back down on housework.

After working hard for several days, I finally counted all the private properties of the Eight Great Farms and turned most of them into silver coins.

The last few tens of thousands of taels of silver were borrowed from Lin Ruhai.

After hearing the news, Lin Ruhai also came over to take a look. She was also secretly amazed at the Rongfu family's boldness in giving birth to a child. It was really crazy.

“Brother Cunzhou, it’s better to do less of this kind of thing in the future!”
