Chapter 513: Yongzheng Seal
The next day after Lu Jiajie came back, he sent his two children to primary school and followed Lu Hongjun to see Doctor Zhao. Doctor Zhao was good at orthopedics and could also treat trauma. He had more than 40 years of experience in medical practice.

Lu Jiajie had been beaten several times while in the mines, and had some old injuries on his body. Doctor Zhao first felt Lu Jiajie's pulse, and then examined his body, saying that these injuries did not hurt his muscles and bones and would heal after a period of rest without any sequelae.

Doctor Zhao prescribed some medicine for the wound and said, "I'm not very good at conditioning the body. You can go find Doctor He. Everyone who has been to him has praised him highly."

Lu Jiajie knew this doctor, he was the one who treated Jiaxin. He was really amazing. Jiaxin was injured, but she recovered after taking the medicinal diet he prescribed for a year.

It was very convenient since they had a car, so the uncle and nephew went straight to Dr. He, got the medicine, bought a medicine bowl, and boiled the medicine when they got home.

In the past, he would feel nauseous whenever he smelled Chinese medicine in the countryside, but now he finds it fragrant because it is a good thing that can help his body recover quickly.

He was busy picking up and boiling medicine in the morning, and only went to the homes of his two friends at the mine after lunch. One of the two friends was called Luo Guangyuan and the other was called Sun Qi. Lu Jiajie went to Luo Guangyuan first, but he didn't expect that Luo Guangyuan's wife had remarried with two children, and now she was pregnant with her second husband's baby. Sun Qi was the only son, and he also got married and had children, but he had divorced before going abroad. The child lived with his mother. His mother was very excited to know that her son was still alive, and said that she would sell everything she had to redeem her son.

Lu Jiajie and Sun Qi's mother said, "The other party said that they would give him an answer tomorrow. If you want to save your son, you must raise the money within two days."

It was not easy to collect 20,000 green coins in three days! But in order to save her son, his mother agreed and said she would try her best to collect the money.

When Lu Jiajie left Sun Qi's house, he felt very heavy. The Sun family was willing to raise money to redeem him, but Luo Guangyuan would never come back. He wanted to raise the money himself, but he only left 50,000 yuan when he went to Chang Maozi. He needed to take care of his health and raise two children, so he needed money everywhere, and he was powerless.

After finishing this, he went home to boil some medicine, and after taking the medicine, it was time to pick up the children. He didn't want to cook, so he took the two children to live with Lu Jiaguang.

When Lu Jiaguang got home, he saw that he was worried and asked, "What's wrong? The doctor said that your body can't be adjusted?"

Lu Jiajie shook his head and told the story of his two friends: "Sun Qi should be able to come back, but Luo Guangyuan, he may never come back."

Lu Jiaguang said, "Twenty thousand green coins, how many families in the entire Forty-Nine City can come up with that much money? Do you think the Sun family can raise it within a day?"

Lu Jiajie was not worried about this: "Brother only said to give me two days to do this, but he didn't say that I have to give him the money within two days. I should be able to give him a few more days after we meet and discuss it with him tomorrow."

Lu Jiaguang patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Don't think too much, just do your best."

If it weren't for Jiaxin, Lu Jiajie himself would not have been able to come back, let alone Sun Qi. By the time his mother died, she wouldn't even know where her son's body was.

After dinner, Lu Jiajie took the two children back to her home. Unexpectedly, there were two people waiting for her at the door, one of them was Sun Qi's mother, and the other was Sun Qi's eldest sister.

Lu Jiajie welcomed them in and wanted to pour them some water but was stopped by Sun Qi's mother.

Sun Qi's mother took out a red lacquered wooden box from the cloth bag she was carrying. She placed the box on the table in the main hall and said, "My child, it is difficult to raise 20,000 green coins in one day. I heard that your sister likes old things very much, so she will definitely accept this. We don't want much, as long as you can bring my Qi back."

Hearing what Sun's mother said, Lu Jiajie immediately opened the box and saw a jade carving inside. Sister Sun said, "This is the imperial seal of Emperor Yongzheng, a white jade square seal with nine dragons. It is priceless. If it wasn't for saving my brother, our family would never have taken it out."

Although Lu Jiajie didn't study much, he knew that the things used by the emperor were very precious and valuable. He looked at Sister Sun and asked doubtfully, "If it's true as you said, this is the seal of Emperor Yongzheng, it can be sold for 20,000 green coins."

Sister Sun nodded and said, "Yes, as long as we are willing to sell it, we can get it for 100,000 green coins, and we can pay immediately. But can 20,000 green coins really ensure that my brother will return safely?"

Lu Jiajie couldn't really guarantee it, but he also understood what Sister Sun meant. He sold the jade carving to Jiaxin for 20,000 green coins, and asked her to ensure that Sun Qi returned safely.

Lu Jiajie shook his head and said, "My sister can't guarantee that Sun Qi will come back safe and sound."

Mother Sun said hurriedly, "It doesn't matter if it's intact, as long as Xiaoqi can come back alive. Jiajie, please ask your sister for me. If this jade carving is not enough, I can get more. We will raise money as much as possible."

Lu Jiajie also wanted to save Sun Qi. He thought for a moment and said, "Wait here for a moment. I'm going to call my sister and ask her if she's willing to accept the jade carving."

Naturally, the mother and daughter had no objection.

After Lu Jiajie asked the two children to go back to their room to do their homework, he went to Lu Jiaguang’s house: “Brother, I have something to call Jiaxin, I have to go to the study room to call.”

As soon as he heard it, he knew that the content of the call was not suitable for the children at home to hear, so Lu Jiaguang asked him to go into the study to make the call.

Lu Jiaxin was doing yoga and was surprised to hear the maid say it was Lu Jiajie calling, but she answered the phone anyway. He wouldn't call so late if it wasn't something important.

When Lu Jiajie heard her voice, he told her about the jade carving and Sun's mother's request: "I don't know whether the jade carving is real or fake, but it concerns Sun Qi's life so he shouldn't lie to us."

When Lu Jiaxin heard that it was the emperor's seal, she became interested and said, "He Bin is in Sijiu City now. You take the seal to He Bin tomorrow and ask him to find someone to authenticate it. If it is genuine, I will ask Lao Geng to make another trip and bring his son back safely."

If it was fake, Lao Geng would have left without her saying anything, but the probability of this happening was very low.

"it is good."

The next day at noon, He Bin called Lu Jiaxin and told her about the seal: "Boss, I asked three experts to identify it, and the seal is real. One of the experts said that the emperor had a total of five jade seals, and this is one of them. There are clear records about its production."

Lu Jiaxin hummed and said, "Give my fifth brother 30,000 green coins, and tell him that the seal is worth 100,000 green coins. The 50,000 is for someone else to guarantee that this matter is foolproof. I will give the reward and ransom directly to Lao Geng. With so much foreign currency, Lao Geng may not be able to leave the country."

"it is good."
