The Red Chamber: My Stunning Confidante with a Variety of Styles

"what?!"

All the court chiefs exclaimed in unison, their eyes full of shock.

Chen Jiang asked Liu Tian in astonishment: "How much money do you think he raised?"

Liu Tian thought about it, recalled it carefully, and then said: "He said, 3000 million taels."

"Impossible!" Chen Jiang said loudly, "You must have heard it wrong!"

The other court leaders also nodded in unison. They came to the conclusion just now that it would take half a year to save up to 3000 million taels of silver, but before they finished speaking, they said that Jia Jue had collected 3000 million taels. their mouths?
Liu Tian shook his head, resolutely: "Master Chen, this old slave heard correctly, it is 3000 million taels."

"It's absolutely impossible! Unless he loots all the wealthy homes in the entire capital!" Chen Jiang still didn't believe it.

He appreciates and recognizes Jia Jue's talent, but this has nothing to do with talent and ability. He is also right about things and not about people, which is completely beyond his cognition.

This is not 30, 300, 3000 million, but [-] million!It is a state-level property and cannot be obtained by individuals.

Zhao Qi was also full of doubts. He only asked Jia Jue to raise money today. How could it be possible to raise 3000 million taels so quickly in just a few hours.

He was also skeptical of Liu Tian's words.

"Send him in." He said to Liu Tian.

Liu Tian nodded, went out and brought Jia Jue in.

"See Your Majesty, I have met all your lords." Jia Jue walked into the study and saluted everyone.

Zhao Qi asked him: "Jia Jue, why are you here at this time?"

Jia Jue replied: "Your Majesty, early this morning, you ordered my minister to raise money for the treasury, and this minister is here to answer your orders."

Chen Jiang was very impatient, and without waiting for Zhao Qifa to ask, he asked Jia Jue directly: "Master Jia, have you raised 3000 million taels?"

Jia Jue glanced at Liu Tian, ​​then shook his head lightly: "No, Eunuch Liu didn't listen."

"Sure enough!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the words, and said how could it be possible to collect 3000 million taels of silver in such a short period of time.

If it can be done, doesn't it seem that they are incompetent?

Zhao Qi also sighed softly. He hoped that Jia Jue could really raise so much money. If so, the difficulties in front of him would be eliminated.

It's a pity that Liu Tian got it wrong.

With guilt all over his face, Liu Tian knelt down towards Zhao Qi and said, "Your Majesty, this old slave will die."

"Forget it, get up, you're old, it's common sense to have a bad ear, and it's not a big deal, so I won't pursue it, as an example." Zhao Qi waved his hand.

Liu Tian quickly thanked him.

"Jia Jue, tell me, how much money have you raised?" Zhao Qi asked Jia Jue.

This is also the question of everyone, but not many people take it seriously. It is very good to have a few 10 taels.

Jia Jue smiled and replied: "We have raised a total of 9000 million taels, including 3000 million taels of cash, various jewelry and jade, antique calligraphy and paintings, discounted at 2000 million taels, and 4000 million taels to be delivered within three months. "

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard this.

Chen Jiang smiled at Jia Jue, "Did Master Jia go to rob the treasury of the Sasanian Empire?"

Everyone smiled. Indeed, there are only a few treasuries of big countries who can have so much money.

They didn't take Jia Jue's words as truth at all, they just thought he was joking.

The same is true for Zhao Qi, who glared at Jia Jue: "Don't mess around, tell the truth."

Jia Jue shook his head and said to them: "Your Majesty, my lords, what I said is true and I did not exaggerate."

The smiles on everyone's faces were even worse, while Zhao Qi gave Jia Jue another look.

9000 million taels, which is more than the annual income of the court, how could Jia Jue get so much money?
Jia Jue didn't speak any more, but walked to the door, carried a box and put it on Zhao Qi's desk: "Your Majesty, please check it."

Everyone looked at the box, their eyes were full of astonishment, what is Jia Jue doing?prank?

Zhao Qi also looked at Jia Jue suspiciously, even he couldn't understand what Jia Jue was doing.

He stretched out his hand and opened the box in front of him.

Immediately, colorful rays of light scattered from the box, illuminating the entire Shang study room, and dazzled him so much that he could hardly look directly at it.

He blinked his eyes and tried his best to recover some eyesight. He looked into the box again, but saw that there was a large stack of thick bank notes and various jewels and jade in it.

"This... this..." His eyes widened, full of shock and disbelief.

He wiped his eyes and looked into it again, but what he saw was still these things.

Seeing his appearance, everyone couldn't help but gather around him and looked into the box. After seeing him, they all exclaimed in surprise:

"This is impossible!"

Chen Jiang couldn't help but reached out and took out the banknotes from the box, and checked them carefully, only to find that they were indeed real banknotes, each of which was of a large amount!

Seeing him like this, the other court lords also quickly checked the other jewels and jades in the box. After seeing this, they all exclaimed:
"My God! This is the rare treasure Moon Shadow Stone. If it is sold, it will be worth 10 taels of silver, and there are people rushing to buy it!"

"This, this is, it's beanite! The old man has only seen it in ancient books. I can't imagine that there really is beanite in the world!"

"Ah? This, this is a blood jade! There really is a blood jade! A thousand pieces of gold don't change, a thousand pieces of gold don't change!"

……

All the bigwigs of the imperial court shouted at this time regardless of their appearance, their faces were full of surprise and excitement.

But the one who was most excited was Chen Jiang, his old face flushed, and he shouted to Zhao Qi with saliva:
"Your Majesty, the imperial court has silver! The imperial court has silver! Just because these are silver bills, there are as many as 3000 million!"

Zhao Qi heard that he took the bank notes from him, counted them and laughed loudly:
"Good! Good! It really is 3000 million taels! The pensions for the dead and wounded soldiers are here! The frontier soldiers are paid!"

"Great!" All the courtiers were also full of excitement, and the court's problem was solved.

"It's ridiculous that I swore that I had just raised this much money within six months. As a result, Mr. Jia only took a few hours to raise this much money." Chen Jiang sighed, "The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty are not as good as that." Lord Jia is alone! I am ashamed!"

"Ashamed!"

A group of big men in the court thought that they didn't believe in Jia Jue at all just now, Qi Qi blushed, showing a look of shame, they looked at each other, bowed to Jia Jue together and said:
"Before, I waited to sit and watch the sky, and I had many misunderstandings about Mr. Jia, so please forgive Mrs. Jia."
