The expression on Lin Daiyu's pretty face changed. After a while, she finally said, "Brother Hui and I have made an engagement. How can I, a girl, be such a big boss? I still need Brother Hui to nod and agree to this matter."
Sister Lin's matter was reasonable. Since her father had entrusted her to Jia Hui, Jia Hui had the authority to handle the matter.
This was what Wang Xifeng was afraid of. Dealing with Jia Hui would be life-threatening.
But there was nothing we could do. Fortunately, Jia Lian was able to speak in front of Jia Hui.
After leaving the courtyard where Sister Lin lived, Sister Feng pestered Jia Lian hard and asked him to go to Jia Hui to discuss the matter.
"Brother Hui, come on, please take a seat." A table of wine and food has been set up in the yard of Jia Lian and his wife.
Jia Lian diligently persuaded you to drink, "Brother Hui, you and I haven't seen each other for many days. We want to have a few drinks today."
Jia Hui also refused to refuse anyone who came. After drinking for three times, his face was still as usual, but Jia Lian, who was trying to persuade him to drink, was already blushing.
"Okay, Second Brother Lian, I already know from Sister Lin the reason why you invited me today." Jia Hui put down the wine glass in his hand.
"It is impossible to borrow money. If your Rongguo Mansion is willing to open your private treasury and let me select treasures enough for one million taels of silver, these silvers will be yours.
In addition, the dowries of Aunt Min and Sister Lin can no longer be kept in Rongguo Mansion. I am afraid that some people are interested in these dowries. At that time, I am afraid that I will not be able to help but kill them. "
Jia Hui's tone was calm, but Jia Lian didn't dare to argue. It was better to leave it to Jia Mu to deal with the problem, since he himself wouldn't benefit much anyway.
Jia Lian called Wang Xifeng and asked her to go to Jia Mu to convey Jia Hui's wishes. He was still drinking with Jia Hui here.
In fact, Jia Hui had his own considerations about this matter. The 1.5 million taels of silver that Sister Lin hid in the small world was enough for future expenses.
Instead of leaving this apparent million-dollar fortune there, it would be better to exchange it for something useful.
Jia Min had told him that two generations of Duke Rong had collected a lot of good things during their campaigns.
Some precious treasures, such as gems and antiques, went into Jia Mu's private treasury after Jia Daishan's death, but they were never realized.
There are also some weird things that have no apparent use and are not valuable. Because they were collected by two generations of Duke Rong, they are not thrown away casually and are kept in the warehouse.
At that time, Jia Hui was a little moved. There must have been practitioners in this world before. Among the gadgets collected by these princes and nobles, it is impossible to say that there are some spiritual artifacts that are more popular among the people.
Just like the alchemy book I had picked up before, no one knew what it was. Although it is of no use to others, it is of great use to yourself.
Jia Hui also discussed with Sister Lin, Jia Min and her daughter that it would be better to use the temporarily useless silver to exchange for some good things.
This also contains a hint of Jia Min's selfishness. She doesn't want her daughter and her mother, Jia Mu, to become hostile to each other. This can be regarded as a suitable step for both parties.
But Wang Xifeng was convinced and hurried to Rongqing Hall where Jia Mu lived.
After learning that Jia Lian was hosting a banquet for Jia Hui today, a group of elders from the Rongguo Mansion sat there waiting. They couldn't help but care about the one million taels of wealth.
As for Sanchun, Baoyu, Li Wan and a group of girls and wives, they have been ordered to find somewhere else to play, lest they get into trouble and it won't look good.
"Ancestor", Wang Xifeng still hadn't arrived yet, but the laughter was already heard.
"Girl Feng, what's going on with Lian'er?" Seeing the smile on Sister Feng's face, Jia Mu knew it must be good news.
Wang Xifeng smiled broadly, "Old ancestor, Second Master Lian finally persuaded Brother Hui to let go.
Brother Hui said that all he had to do was open the warehouse in the mansion and let him pick out a few treasures worth the one million taels of silver. "
When Jia Mu heard this, her face sank. Since Jia Daishan's death, these collections of the old Duke have become her private property.
Jia Hui said this, which was tantamount to cutting flesh from her body, which made her very dissatisfied.
However, Jia She, Jia Zheng and his wife next to them were a little moved. They knew that Jia Mu was the richest person in the Duke's house.
"Old lady, you can't eat those antiques in your hands anyway, and no one wants them if they are expensive. Why don't you take out two of them, deal with that kid Jia Hui, and get the money first?" Jia She was impatient. He said, anyway, it’s not asking him to pay for it.
The old lady glanced at her sons and daughters-in-law, and felt a little moved when she saw them, and her heart suddenly felt as heavy as dead water.
"Okay, you are all so thoughtful that you have set your sights on my old lady." Mother Jia was a little angry.
Jia Zheng suddenly fell silent, but Jia She was a little unconvinced, "Didn't the entire collection of mother, grandfather and father fall into your private treasury?
We sons don’t have any of it. Even if we wanted to, we couldn’t take it out! "
Mother Jia was even more annoyed when she heard this, but she couldn't get angry. This was also the case. But these are her guarantees for old age and maintaining her status.
Without this huge amount of wealth, do you think there would be so many juniors surrounding a poor old woman?
"Old lady, my wife has an idea. There are some items of unknown use in the collections of the two old princes. They are all stored in the palace warehouse. Just let the boy Na Hui go there and choose at will." Mrs. Wang said aloud.
Since her eldest daughter Jia Yuanchun became a concubine, Mrs. Wang felt that she was capable again. Could it be that that barbarian warrior dared to confront the royal family.
Those junk things, because they were collected by the old Duke, are not easy for descendants like them to deal with at will. Now they are just perfect for dealing with that bastard.
Mother Jia's eyes lit up, "Well, this is a good idea. Those things were collected with great effort by two generations of princes. Letting Jia Hui choose as he pleases can be regarded as a courtesy to him."
"This method is very good." Jia She clapped his hands and applauded. He had already gone to the warehouse to see those shabby things. From the perspective he had developed over many years of appreciating antiques, none of them were good. It was just that after all, Just a rarity.
"If you use these things to deal with that kid, you will be embarrassed not to give him any money."
Jia She and the others thought quite well, but they never thought that what Jia Hui was talking about was in exchange for something worth one million taels of silver.
If they are all rubbish by then, Jia Hui will not tolerate them. If you want money, you don't have any shit.
Wang Xifeng got the explanation, took the warehouse key from Mrs. Wang, and went back to hand over the task happily.
If this matter is really done, then she is trying to please both sides. If it fails, she is just a messenger, and it is not her fault.
"Second Master Lian, Brother Hui, I spent a lot of effort to help you settle this matter.
The old lady has agreed to open up the collection left by the old Duke for the Hui brothers to choose from." Wang Xifeng sold it in front of Jia Hui with a smile.
