Chapter 215 What is the purpose
Chapter 215 What is the purpose (please subscribe)
Jia Huan didn't understand that the current emperor allowed the concubines in the harem to leave the palace to visit relatives, which had nothing to do with the ordinary people in the capital. Why were they discussing it so seriously?
Later I found out that the people in the capital wanted to eat melon.
As for what kind of melon it is, it is natural to analyze which concubine will leave the palace to visit the bride, which concubine's family will build the most gorgeous provincial palace, and which concubine will have the biggest pomp.
Jia Huan realized in an instant that the current emperor was secretly fueling this incident.
Isn't this just starting a publicity campaign in advance, forcing the concubines who plan to leave the palace to go home to visit relatives, and go all out to let the family build various gorgeous and grand residences for relatives? What a thief.
He knew it but didn't say anything. The emperor wanted to make a lot of money. If he exposed the inside story in advance, I'm afraid guys from Jinyi Mansion would come to find trouble every day, so why bother himself.
First, Jia Cong, who was also interested in marrying the concubines, was sent to the martial arts school, while Jia Huan wandered over to the clan school.
Unexpectedly, the ethnic studies students were also discussing the palace concubine's marriage proposal before class.
"Ahem, students, please calm down, class is about to begin!"
Seeing this, Jia Huan walked directly to the podium and said angrily: "This matter has nothing to do with us. What is there to discuss? Is it possible that some company will give free money to idlers like you?"
After saying that, he left the large class teaching building. The scale of the clan school had expanded, and he had to see the situation in other teaching buildings.
Xue Pan, who was very embarrassed, was also in the middle class, accompanying Jia Baoyu and Jia Lan. When he saw Jia Huan, he greeted Jia Huan cheerfully: "Brother Huan, why don't you look unhappy?"
"It's nothing. Things outside have affected the mood of the students, so naturally they are not very happy!"
Jia Huan chuckled and said: "Damn it, the current emperor's concubines came out of the palace to visit the bride, and it was like a big event celebrated by the whole country. It really makes people speechless!"
"Isn't it?"
Xue Pan clapped his hands and said helplessly: "My mother and sister have been talking about this since yesterday!"
"As a result, today, not only did the matter not calm down, but it became lively outside. I don't know what happened. What does it have to do with those ordinary people?"
This guy has developed some skills through experience, and at least his mind is quite clear.
"It has little to do with us, so don't pay any more attention to it!"
Jia Huan chuckled, changed the subject and asked, "By the way, how are you enjoying your time here at Clan Academy?"
"It's okay!"
Xue Pan said cheerfully: "I read miscellaneous books in the morning and played at the Cuju court in the afternoon. I feel quite relaxed and leisurely, much more relaxed than running around outside!"
"Those guys from Jinling haven't continued to act like monsters, have they?"
Jia Huan reminded: "Not only do you stare when you go to school, but you can't relax after school either!"
"There's no need to be so harsh, right?"
Xue Pan was a little surprised, shook his head and said: "I think as long as they abide by the rules when they go to school, they don't need to worry about other things. After all, they are not children anymore!"
"I don't want to care!"
Jia Huan spread his hands and said helplessly: "But the master won't let me!"
"Besides, after all, it was the Jinling clan who specifically said hello. Regardless of whether they can become talents or not, at least they can't turn into bastards who are proficient in eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling during their studies in clan studies, right?"
"You also know that there are some guys in the capital who specialize in the business of rich dudes. Their methods are so ungrateful that they can even be said to be underhanded. You still have to be vigilant!"
"Okay, don't talk about it, I will arrange for someone to keep a close eye on it. If something happens, I will inform you as soon as possible and I won't embarrass you. Who said we are brothers?"
What else could Xue Pan say after hearing this? He directly patted his chest and made a promise.
"I'm quite relieved when you do things!"
Jia Huan laughed and said: "Recently, I have been paying more attention to the prices of building materials and the wages of relevant craftsmen. There will definitely be surprises!"
With that said, he turned around and walked towards the other teaching buildings of the clan school, still humming a little tune.
While patrolling, he naturally noticed that the few disciples of the Jinling clan who had had contact with them wanted to come over to say hello, but they seemed a little hesitant. He had no intention of approaching them.
Since he came from Jinling to study thousands of miles away, he should honestly study and make progress in ethnic studies and don't have any small thoughts that he shouldn't have. He wouldn't agree to it anyway.
The few clan disciples who came from Jinling are also feeling quite depressed right now.
They were used to living happily in Jinling, so how could they endure the days of studying hard?
Originally, I thought the clan leader was Xue Pan, but even though I was taught a lesson, I didn't think anything of it.
After all, the name of Overlord Xue Pandai is still very resounding. They can't compare to them in Jinling. There is nothing to say about being suppressed when they come to the capital.
But who knows, after spending some time in the ethnic studies, I slowly came to my senses.
It turns out that Xue Pan is not the boss of the clan school. The real boss is Jia Huan, a humble concubine of the Rong family.
Naturally, they felt very unhappy. They were all the legitimate sons of each house in the Jinling clan. How could they look at a bastard like Jia Huan and still be overpowered by him?
As a result, Xue Pan and Jia Qiang of the Ning Mansion suppressed him if he wanted to make a scene.
He wanted to find trouble directly with Jia Huan, but he couldn't get past the group of younger men around Jia Huan.
Slowly, they also realized that Jia Huan was obviously not as simple as they thought. Otherwise, Xue Pan, the stupid overlord, would be honest and obedient, and even Jia Qiang, the upright great-great-grandson of Ning Mansion, would have the time to think about nonsense in clan studies. Obviously, he did it to save face for Jia Huan.
After getting acquainted with their classmates, they were surprised to know that Jia Huan was indeed quite extraordinary.
Apart from anything else, Dan Dan's status as the boss of Ningrong Street Hall scared them so much that they dared not make any mistakes.
They were in Jinling, but they had seen the majesty of the gangsters. Even the local officials gave them face, let alone a few of their playboys.
In Jinling, there are important gangs such as Cao Gang, Yan Gang and Yangtze River Gang.
There are dozens or hundreds of young men roaring at every turn, not to mention the majesty and domineering attitude.
Because the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, Jianghu gangs are extremely powerful in the south, and their behavior is much more domineering and arrogant than in the north.
Even playboys like them will not end well if they offend a big boss in the world.
Now that they knew the identity of Jia Huan and the big boss of the world, they were shocked and excited at the same time. They wanted to get acquainted with each other, so that they might be able to have a good time in the world in the future.
It's a pity that Jia Huan didn't give them any chance.
Jia Huan didn't know what these children of the same race were thinking. If he knew, he would definitely send them to the village outside the city for a good training session to let them know that it is not that simple to live in the world.
I thought that these children of the same race were still evil and wanted to see the colorful world here in the capital.
When dealing with these impetuous boys, it is natural to suppress them harshly and forcefully. They must survive for at least a year and a half before talking about anything else. Judging from their performance and the speed of their progress, Jia Huan really wanted to pack them all up and send them back, and didn't want to waste time on them.
Time passed quickly in Jia Huan's fulfilling life, and a month passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, the topic of concubines' marriage visits in the capital city not only did not stop, but also showed signs of getting more and more intense. Any dignitary with a clearer mind would probably have noticed that something was wrong.
But unfortunately, after hearing that some of the concubines' families had already applied to leave the palace, each one of them was very proud and prepared to build a provincial residence with great fanfare.
He also threatened to make his own concubines become the most glorious among the concubines.
This incident, just like adding fuel to the fire, immediately caused a quite fierce "arms race".
Apart from anything else, the prices of building materials that Jia Huan has been paying close attention to, especially the prices of high-quality materials such as good wood, have more than doubled.
Good guy, Jia Huan feels like he is directly grabbing money!
You know, no matter how crudely built the Provincial Family Courtyard is, it is still a big project for the construction workers. Those that need to be inspected by the royal family, and those that are unqualified or substandard will simply not pass the inspection.
There is a huge amount of high-quality materials that need to be consumed here.
Apart from anything else, no matter how simple a provincial residence is, if it were built without a hundred thousand taels of silver, it would be unthinkable.
Among them, the cost of craftsmen is not high, and the most expensive thing is the cost of materials.
I don’t know why, but Rongfu, which has always been very active in building provincial residences, has not had much relevant information coming out recently, as if it doesn’t have much interest in it.
How can it be?
Apart from anything else, Aunt Zhao would recite something every day when Jia Huan returned home. At least three or four of the ten sentences were related to the Provincial Family Courtyard.
It is not difficult to guess from his words that the old lady and Mrs. Wang will definitely build a provincial residence.
However, they couldn't make up their mind about where to build it for a while.
According to Aunt Zhao, there are not many places to choose from, but the two bosses of Rong Mansion felt that something was wrong. If they wanted to keep improving, time would naturally not go up.
Jia Huan could only laugh. Anyway, the second master Zheng didn't take the initiative to ask for advice. Naturally, he would not be too proactive and appear to have ulterior motives.
What he was most curious about was not this, but that he was a little confused about the current emperor's thoughts.
In the past year, not to mention other places, the northern border area close to the capital can definitely be said to have had good weather, with no natural or man-made disasters like those in previous years.
Although the imperial court's treasury revenue has been tight, it can barely maintain operations.
In other words, the current emperor's private treasury does not need to withdraw money from outside, and there is no shortage of money.
After all, even Ningrong's second mansion has such a large farm. As an emperor, the number of palaces and the area of fields must be quite exaggerated, so there is no need to think about it.
If the annual income turned in was not hundreds of thousands of taels, Jia Huan would twist his head off and play with it as a ball.
Not to mention, the emperor also had other income, and there was no shortage of money in his private treasury.
Not to mention tens of millions of taels, at least millions of taels are definitely available, and they can be withdrawn at any time.
Under such circumstances, the current emperor did not want to be shameless and went crazy for money. His purpose naturally aroused Jia Huan's curiosity and wanted to explore it.
It can be said that the current emperor at this time, whether in terms of situation or status, should be the best since he succeeded to the throne.
The Supreme Emperor's body is no longer what it used to be. Although he has struggled back from the edge of death time and time again, his body's vitality must have been greatly depleted. There is no need to mention this matter.
Under such circumstances, the Supreme Emperor's restraint on today's power has naturally dropped a lot, and it is no longer even possible to suppress today's strength.
