Jia Mu couldn't help but asked in confusion: "What can you do?"

Mrs. Wang said: "Mom, Brother Huan's perfume business is very profitable. He must have money in his hands."

"In addition, he inherited the Ningguo Mansion, and the imperial concubine is also his biological sister. It is only natural that he would pay for the construction of the provincial residence."

"Therefore, as long as Brother Huan spends five hundred thousand taels of silver, this courtyard can be built."

Before Mrs. Wang finished speaking, Jia Zheng sneered and said, "Although the imperial concubine is Huan Ge'er's biological sister, she is no longer from our Rongguo Mansion. She is now from Ningguo Mansion."

"You emptied Rongguo Mansion's 500,000 taels of silver and lent it to your brother, and in turn asked Ningguo Mansion to spend 500,000 taels of silver to build a provincial residence. Isn't it ridiculous?"

After saying this, Mrs. Wang felt ashamed. She lowered her head and said, "He didn't pay for this money in vain. I just treat it as a loan from him. When the Wang family raises the funds, the money will be returned."

Mother Jia, who knew Mrs. Wang's character well, knew that if Brother Huan borrowed the five hundred thousand taels of silver, Mrs. Wang would definitely let the Wang family transfer the debt to Brother Huan.

When the time comes, the Wang family will definitely not return the five hundred thousand taels of silver to Brother Huan.

Jia Mu sighed and said, "Well, repairing the yard is the first priority now. This money is borrowed from Brother Huan, but it is borrowed in the name of Rongguo Mansion, not the Wang family."

"When the time comes, we will use the Rongguo Mansion as a mortgage. If you can't pay back the debt by then, just mortgage the Rongguo Mansion to Brother Huan."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang's face suddenly changed color.

She originally just wanted to steal five hundred thousand taels of silver from that little beast with nothing, so as to settle the Wang family's debt. How had she ever thought of using the Rongguo Mansion as a mortgage?

If she had said that she would use the Rongguo Mansion as a mortgage, Mrs. Wang would never agree.

Now, even if she wanted to refuse, she couldn't find an excuse.

Jia Mu ignored Mrs. Wang's little idea and said tiredly: "You send people to call the boss, Lian'er and his wife, and Brother Huan."

"Let's discuss the construction of the provincial villa today so that construction can start as soon as possible."

Jia Zheng stood up and said, "Yes, mother."

Not long after, Jia She, Mrs. Xing, Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng and Jia Huan all rushed to Rongqing Hall.

Jia Huan was the last one to arrive. He was in Dongfu and was far away from Ben.

Arriving at Rongqing Hall, Jia Huan was slightly startled when he saw that all the serious masters of the Jia family in the east and west houses had been called over.

Immediately, Jia Huan realized that this was probably about building a provincial residence, right?

If not, everyone wouldn’t be called over.

It seems that Huifang Garden in Dongfu cannot be saved.

In The Book of Red Mansions, Jia Zhen contributed the Huifang Garden of Ningguo Mansion without hesitation.

Not to mention that in terms of blood, he is Jia Zheng's biological son. He has no reason not to give it.

It is estimated that not only the contribution to Huifangyuan will be made, but tens of thousands of taels of silver will also be spent.

After sitting down, Jia Mu revealed the reason why she asked them all to come over. Sure enough, it was to build a provincial residence.

It also explains that building a yard at home is not only convenient, but also saves money.

Jia Mu paused for a moment. Jia Huan did not wait for Jia Mu to speak before he took the initiative and said: "Old ancestors, since we want to build a yard at home, in my opinion, the ground of Xifu alone is not enough to build a yard."

"My grandson simply took out the Huifang Garden in Dongfu and merged it directly into the Provincial Family Courtyard. This will be about three or four miles in size, which is enough to build a courtyard."

Jia Huan's words made Jia's mother very happy.

Others also looked at Jia Huan with admiration.

Look, this is Brother Huan’s realization!

This is Brother Huan's mind and realm.

In fact, for Jia Huan, Huifangyuan must be given away in the end no matter what.

In this case, it is better to propose it yourself and still sell one.

Jia's mother said: "Brothers fight tigers, father and son go into battle, and it becomes clear that we are a family."

"However, it is not easy to build this courtyard. It will cost about one million dollars."

"Now the public school can't afford so much money. I asked you to come, but I want you all to chip in."

Jia She smashed the bar and said, "Mother, building the provincial villa is a major event for my Jia family, and it is also a good thing for our ancestors. I will take out 20,000 taels of silver."

Jia's mother stared at Jia She for a few times and then said: "Boss, my family is not what it used to be, and we don't have much money per kilometer, but we have to ask you brothers to pay more. You can take fifty thousand taels of silver."

Jia She said calmly: "Mother, my son also wants to pay more. Even if he pays one hundred thousand taels of silver, it is appropriate. But when the family was separated, he didn't give much to his son, and my eldest family didn't make much profit. Where does the money come from? I can't even get it out even if I want to."

Is Jia She rich? In fact, there are still some, and it’s not like I can’t even afford 50,000 taels of silver.

Unexpectedly, he fell in love with Yuanyang, and after being rejected by Yuanyang, he bought a girl with eight hundred taels of silver.

In order to buy a few fans, I am willing to spend 500 taels of silver to buy fans.

You don't have tens of thousands of taels of silver in your hands, how dare you spend such money?

But he was unwilling to pay fifty thousand taels for nothing.

Jia's mother was so angry at Jia She's words that her liver ached, and she kept a straight face and said nothing.

Jia Zheng said: "Mother, my second wife is willing to pay fifty thousand taels of silver."

Jia Mu nodded and said nothing.

Jia Lian glanced at Wang Xifeng, and the couple exchanged glances.

Jia Lian said: "Old ancestors, our grandchildren don't dare to compare with the master and the second master, so we will take out 10,000 taels of silver."

After Jia Lian, Jia Huan said with a smile: "Ancestor, I am a junior. Although I don't dare to compare with the master and the second master, I don't dare to take less. I will also take out fifty thousand taels of silver."

Look at Brother Huan, and then look at the boss’s virtue?

It is true that a son is not as good as a grandson.

It's really rare for Brother Huan to be able to shell out 50,000 taels of silver, but it's a pity that the money is far from enough.

After sighing twice, Jia Mu said: "Brother Huan, you are good for taking Huifangyuan and getting money at the same time. However, the money to build this provincial residence is not enough, and I need to borrow some money from you." .”

"But don't worry, the first and second bedrooms of Rongguo Mansion are here now. In front of them, the old lady will make it clear."

"Now Ningguo Mansion borrows five hundred thousand taels of silver from Brother Huan and uses Rongguo Mansion as collateral. If Rongguo Mansion still fails to repay the money, Rongguo Mansion will be pledged to Brother Huan. Brother Huan, what do you think?"

Look at what you said, is it so easy?

You want to lend me five hundred thousand taels of silver, are you kidding me? Why should I borrow it?

Jia Huan can guarantee that once the money is lent out, it will never be recovered.

Can he really take over Rongguo Mansion by then?

Let’s not talk about whether the people in Rongguo Mansion will give it or not.

Just saying that the Rongguo Mansion was built by imperial decree, how could it be taken over at will?
