[Red Mansion] Master Jia Dadi

Zhao San racked his brains and thought for a while, and then a word popped out of his mouth.

Jia Lian immediately turned his attention to his father, as if a cat was scratching in his curious heart.

At the same time, on another boat a few meters away, the man who was talking suddenly stopped and listened intently.

Seeing this, the servant in the blue gown fell silent.

"This earthen character is good." Jia Amnesty seemed completely unaware that anyone was listening. He took a brush and wrote an earthen character on the rice paper. Since ancient times, there are several methods used to measure characters. One is to tear it down, The second is making, dismantling is to take the characters apart, and making is to add a little bit of characters to turn them into another character, which looks mysterious, but it is just a trick when it is explained.

Hearing this word well, Zhao San was overjoyed and showed a simple and honest smile.

"First of all, your family has been farming from generation to generation. This earth character shows that you are loyal and never forget your roots. Secondly, when you take this earth character apart, it is the sum of ten and one, which is your age. Finally, the earth character is reversed. It’s just a dry word, which means that what you have done recently is capable.” Jia She said.

Zhao San nodded again and again, his eyes filled with amazement.

Jia Lian asked curiously: "Father, can you tell from this word why I picked Zhao San in the first place?"

Jia Amnesty said unhurriedly: "This is not difficult. You can see that the earth characters have two horizontal lines and one vertical line, which means that the two are working together and working together. You chose Zhao San in the first place because one of them is loyal and the other is clever. , complement each other."

Jia Lian opened his mouth wide. He had never told anyone about this.

"Father, you really know it." Jia Lian took a cup of tea and handed it to Jia Amnesty, "Then can you test me?"

After Jia Amnesty drank his tea, he said, "Okay, you can write."

Jia Lian thought for a while, picked up a pen and wrote the word "letter", and said casually, "I want to ask if the trip is going well this time?"

Although he hadn't been in the world, but occasionally he learned some outside things from the servants, so he was not as stunned as Zhao San, who didn't say anything after he said the word, and didn't say what he wanted to ask.

"The word "faith" follows people from words, and the Book of Rites also says that the people do not ask for what they want, so it is called "faith". That is to say, without excessive desires, it can be called "faithfulness". It must go well." Jia She said with a smile.

Jia Lian's eyes lit up, "Then if the child wants to test whether Aunt Min is carrying a boy or a girl?"

Jia Amnesty smiled lightly, pointed to the letter and clicked, but he didn't tell the truth.

On this side, the man in the black brocade robe smiled slightly, and the young man beside him listened curiously, but he couldn't hear anything anymore.

"My lord." The servant called out in a low voice.

"Chen Si, let me ask you, have you ever heard of a blockbuster allusion?" If it spreads out, it will definitely surprise many people's eyes.

Chen Si nodded, and immediately reacted, "Subordinates go to investigate?"

If Jia She is just a dude, it will naturally not affect what they are about to do, but now it seems that if this person is just hiding deeper, it may affect what they are going to do, not to mention he is still The brother-in-law of Lin Ruhai, the censor of salt inspection in Yangzhou.

"No, it's not good to startle the snake." The man said after pondering for a moment.

Jia Lian looked at the words in his hand, and couldn't figure it out no matter how much he thought about it. When he was about to ask his father, he saw a frightening smile on Jia She's face, and a chill came from the back of his head. Roll up the paper.

Since then, the boat has gone smoothly, but the original ten-day itinerary has been shortened to six days. On the shore, the Lin Mansion has already sent stewards, women, and servants to come. Seven or eight carriages are lined up, which shows that Lin Ruhai is the son-in-law. Respect to the Jia family.

Steward Lin was telling his servants to be attentive later on. He is an old man who has grown up with Lin Ruhai, and he has met that elder brother-in-law once or twice. The truth about my brother-in-law's behavior is hard to say.

For some reason this time, it turned out to be this elder brother-in-law who came here.

"Boss Lin, it seems that Uncle and the others are here." The boy next to him had sharp eyes and saw a gorgeous boat approaching the shore at a glance.

Steward Lin withdrew his attention and took a closer look, but it wasn't right, so he hurriedly led the crowd to meet him.

No matter how this big brother-in-law behaves, they Lin Fu must treat each other well.

In life, I only love living in Yangzhou, and Yangzhou hangs down on Jia'an.Self-picked garden flowers to dress up casually, green skirts reflecting water by the pool.

Yangzhou has had a good reputation since ancient times, and Jia She and his group saw it as a well-deserved reputation. The ten-mile spring breeze brings warmth, vendors line the streets on both sides, and there are even blond-haired and blue-eyed barbarians entering and leaving.

"That place is the Shanxi Merchants Guild Hall?" The place Jia Amnesty was referring to was a mansion funded and built by the Shanxi merchants. The vermilion walls and black tiles, cornices and corridors are magnificent, and the people who come in and out are probably big men in brocade clothes. merchant.

Steward Lin nodded and said yes.

He is no stranger to the Shanxi Merchants Guild Hall. Shanxi merchants refer to merchants in Shanxi. Shanxi merchants account for [-]% of the salt industry in the world. Most of the salts distributed by the government are in the hands of Shanxi merchants. After all, it's not that no one is unmoved, but Shanxi merchants have occupied this cornucopia since the founding of the dynasty, and the backers behind them have always been difficult, and no one wants to offend them without full confidence.Lin Ruhai has served as Yangzhou salt censor for less than two years, and he also knows that Shanxi merchants are not easy to touch.

At this time, a carriage with golden bells hanging from its four corners stopped just in front of the guild hall.

Jia Amnesty noticed that the big businessmen who had been keeping their faces unchanged at the entrance of the guild hall all squeezed out a smile and greeted them.

Manager Lin introduced knowledgeably and interestingly: "That is the Chen family, second in sequence, named Chen Shao, and the Chen family is the head of the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce."

He only gave a brief introduction, but didn't mention that the Chen family can be said to overwhelm the sky in Yangzhou.

Some even said: "It is better to offend the prefect of Yangzhou than to offend the Chen family."
