People in the world only know the "lotus" of Yinglian, which can be understood as "pity".
But I don't know that Jia Lian's "Lian" can also be pronounced as "Lian".
The women in the Red Mansion are pitiful.
But this is the only man, which is pitiful.
My father doesn't care about this man.
Jia She beat him whenever he asked, and scolded him whenever he asked.
My mother doesn’t love this man either.
His biological mother is not here, and his stepmother, Mrs. Xing, doesn't want to care about him and can't care about him.
This man has a strong wife.
Squeeze him to death.
The good legitimate son of the Jia family was managed like a grandson.
There are two people in the house, one is the daughter-in-law, and the other is the daughter-in-law's dowry girl.
The two of them worked together to guard against him.
This man also has a half-sister.
But it looks like "wood".
After searching through the entire book, not a single decent word was exchanged between the two of them.
Jia Zheng, who has the most upright reputation in the Jia family, also has several aunts.
Jia Lian, however, could only "not be afraid of smells and smells" and "touch dogs and steal chickens."
He is obviously the legitimate son and future heir of the eldest son of Rong Mansion.
It's like living under someone else's roof.
The huge Rong Mansion was filled with his family members.
But from top to bottom, no one really cared about him.
Oh, except Wang Xifeng.
This is also the most pitiable part of him.
Master once said: Where there is oppression, there is resistance.
Jia Lian, who was so oppressed in Rongfu, showed resistance only to look lustful.
But lustful but not obscene.
There has been no other unhappiness.
Through the six months of contact with Jiangnan, Feng Yibo basically knew what kind of person Jia Lian was.
To sum it up in eight words:
His abilities are mediocre and his conscience is still intact.
Compared with other noble children, Jia Lian is considered the bottom line.
It is not easy to live in such a family.
This is also an important reason why he is willing to establish relations with the capital through Jia Lian.
At this time, everyone in the room was intrigued by Feng Yibo.
Jia Zhen'an couldn't bear it and said with burning eyes:
"Brother Yibo is worthy of being ranked third, and he actually came up with three ways to make money at once?"
Feng Yibo responded with a smile: "Actually, it's an idea, three directions."
Then he didn't show off, stretched out a finger and said:
"First, stone."
"Second, wood."
"Third, flowers and trees."
Looking at the three fingers, everyone present looked at each other.
It was Feng Ziying who reacted first and blurted out:
"Is this going to be a garden?"
"Brother Ziying is right!"
Feng Yibo nodded with a smile, retracted his hand and said:
"If nothing else, there are many powerful people in the capital."
What he said was somewhat of a reminder.
The implication is that there are many powerful people:
If you don't want to, I'll find someone else.
After saying this, he looked at Jia Zhen and said:
"It costs a lot of money to repair and maintain each family's garden every year, right, Brother Zhen?"
"Families like ours, in order to maintain their dignity, have to garden at least once every three or two years."
Jia Zhen nodded and said with deep approval:
"It even needs to be renovated once a year, with exotic flowers and plants planted, and a dedicated person to take care of it."
The people present here are all children of wealthy families.
After hearing Jia Zhen's words, I more or less had some ideas in my heart.
It's just not as detailed as Jia Zhen's personal management.
Feng Yibo saw that they were a little confused and smiled directly:
"The opportunity to make money has actually been there for a long time, but most aristocratic families think this is a hard job and don't bother to do this kind of thing."
"But……"
Jia Rong, who had been silent, interrupted with some hesitation, frowned and said:
"Has someone already done this business?"
"Tsk! Which business is no one doing?"
Feng Yibo immediately laughed when he heard this.
He waved his hand to signal Jia Rong not to interrupt him.
"We are not going to get fat in one bite. Business is done slowly."
Jia Lian was eager to give it a try and asked, "Tell me about that gamble. How should we do it?"
The blunt compliment made Feng Yibo a little embarrassed, but he still continued:
"In the early stage, we will choose one of the three. With everyone's kindness, it will not be a problem to get some business."
Jia Zhen, Jia Lian and Feng Ziying looked at each other quickly and nodded slowly.
With so many old relatives in the city, someone will always give you face.
The only difference is how many times you can give it.
“After we are familiar with it, we will expand our business scope and gradually become all-inclusive.”
When Feng Yibo said this, his hands seemed to be grasping.
It was as if he held several people's hearts in his hands, then squeezed them hard and said:
"Don't talk about making pocket money by then. If the year is good, I can support my family in Hukou."
Jia Lian swallowed hard.
He was the one who was most in need of money.
At this time, he even regretted bringing Jia Zhen because they had too many overlapping connections.
Fortunately, he was not that greedy. Hearing this, he smiled and said:
"I don't ask for anything to support my family in Hukou. After all, Rongfu is so big. I just want to be able to support Guerlain."
"Go out!"
Jia Zhen rolled her eyes at him.
Just when he was about to say more, Jia Rong was struggling beside him and said:
"What if we do it and offend the original person?"
"Brother Rong! What kind of business can you do without offending others?"
When Feng Yibo heard this, he glanced sideways at him and said with a smile:
"If you're afraid of offending someone, it's safest to go home and hug your wife."
These words hit Jia Rong's pain point.
His expression changed, but he could only treat it as an unintentional remark.
But I didn't think deeply about why a Tanhua could say such vulgar words.
Jia Lian had just been insulted by Jia Zhen and was feeling a little unhappy.
Hearing this, he immediately agreed: "Yibo is right! If you look forward and backward, what great things can you accomplish?"
Jia Zhen was used to being beaten and scolded, but she was interrupted again just now.
He looked at Jia Rong angrily and scolded:
"When the elders are talking about business, how can you interrupt?"
Jia Rong shrank her neck and didn't dare to talk anymore.
While the three members of the Jia family were bickering, Feng Ziying was thinking beside them.
At this time, he frowned and asked: "I think this is feasible, but it's just our two families. I'm afraid it's a bit weak, right?"
When he said there were two families, he naturally classified the Ningrong and Ningrong mansions into one family.
Feng Yibo didn't correct him, he just smiled and said, "It's not urgent."
"After we make a name for ourselves, people will naturally come looking for us, and then we will choose one or two of them."
When Feng Ziying heard this, she felt relieved knowing that he had a development plan in mind.
He nodded and said: "This business is quite successful."
After saying that, he changed the topic and said:
"It's just that the cost is not small, and it's difficult to get raw materials and manpower."
"As for the cost, I have two options for you to choose from."
Feng Yibo stretched out his hand again and said confidently:
"First one, I will pay for all the costs."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was stunned.
"You only have some manpower and your own connections."
"In terms of distribution, you and I will get 70% and 70%, I will get the big share and each of you will get 10%."
Only then did a few people understand what Feng Yibo meant.
Feng Yibo paid and got 70%.
They save face and each person gets the benefit of the doubt.
Doesn't this mean that Feng Yibo has become their boss?
Jia Lian didn't care, he just wanted to earn some money to support his wife.
But Jia Zhen and Feng Ziying looked at each other, and neither of them spoke.
"Second, I will contribute half of the capital, and you will contribute half together."
Feng Yibo didn’t show off and said directly:
"In terms of distribution, Brother Lian is in charge of this matter. He will take 10% without any contribution, and each of us will take 30%."
When Feng Ziying heard this, she was immediately moved.
But he still didn’t agree easily, but continued to ask:
"How much is the initial cost?"
Feng Yibo had already made up his mind and said with a smile:
"Start-up capital, at least one hundred thousand taels."
"One hundred thousand taels?"
This amount was not a small amount, and everyone was shocked.
Only Jia Lian smiled and explained:
"Yibo's family has a big business. Although he is just playing with us this time, there is no need for him to come out in person if we are making a small fuss."
This time, Jia Zhen and Feng Ziying were calmed down.
Although they have a lot of wealth, one hundred thousand cash is not something they can just take.
At least some fixed assets need to be mortgaged.
Feng Yibo was not modest when he heard this and said with a smile:
"If the follow-up is not enough, investment will be increased. The specific proportion depends on whether each company will participate in the investment, so we will discuss it when the time comes."
There will certainly be dilution involved, but it's too early to say.
Feng Ziying pondered for a while and then decided to do something with Feng Yibo.
Expressing his position immediately, he tested Jia Zhen by the way and said:
"I can contribute money. I wonder what Brother Zhen thinks?"
"Twenty-five thousand per person, accounting for 30%..."
Jia Zhen smiled a little unnaturally and hesitated:
"What if we lose?"
Feng Yibo smiled confidently and asked:
"With your reputation in the capital, how can you compensate?"
Jia Zhen thought there was nothing wrong with this, so she immediately gritted her teeth and agreed:
"Okay, I also agree to pay!"
"In that case, let me briefly explain the process."
After finalizing the equity structure, Feng Yibo continued to talk while the iron was hot.
"I can also solve some of the raw materials."
"I have some ways to get rare timber from overseas, but transporting it to the capital is more troublesome."
This was one of the reasons why he proposed to start a garden business, taking advantage of his overseas caravan.
By the way...
Open up the channel from overseas to the capital!
Of course, there is really a lot of wood overseas.
Some special types, if they can be shipped back,
Its value is comparable to its weight in silver.
When Feng Ziying heard about overseas transportation to the capital, she immediately laughed and said:
"We might as well transport it to Jinmen Guards. The commander there is my father's old department."
This is what Feng Yibo was waiting for. Hearing this, he smiled and said:
"Then there is Brother Lao Ziying. All the necessary management will be paid by the public."
Favors can be used, but they cannot be used without any benefit.
With Feng Ziying's face, it doesn't take much to manage.
Jia Lian and Jia Zhen looked at each other and nodded:
"That's the way it should be."
"As for manpower, we won't need too much at the beginning. It will be enough for each company to contribute."
Feng Yibo had another idea about the servants, and comforted him:
“When we attract business, we can then recruit people locally.”
As for not paying it back, it depends on whether there are enough manpower at that time.
"..."
Afterwards, several people discussed the matter while drinking.
Of course, the main thing was that they asked and Feng Yibo answered.
This matter has been well documented for a long time, and Feng Yibo answered all the simple questions they asked fluently.
Even for many questions, I felt that the other party missed the point.
But of course he didn't mind.
Seeing that no one had any more questions, Feng Yibo announced:
"Today I will only tell you the preliminary plan, and the specific implementation plan. I will have someone come to Brother Lian to discuss it later."
"Coming over at the same time is my accounting office."
This is what he wants to say.
Since money is being paid, there must be financial supervision.
Although the three of them were not familiar with the affairs, they all understood this.
Seeing that no one present had any objections, Feng Yibo raised his glass and said:
"I wish our business is prosperous, let's have a drink together!"
"Drink victory!"
The initial conclusion of the cooperation means that Feng Yibo begins to operate in Duzhong.
If we take this opportunity, we can allow the caravan to enter the capital directly.
Not only is it easy for him to control, but he can also be relatively hidden from the eyes and ears of the Zhen family.
The Jiangnan Zhen family is ultimately rooted in Jiangnan.
Originally, Feng Yibo raised this matter because he was planning to let the Jia family open up relations with Jinmen.
The Jia family still has some respect in various places in the Wei Dynasty, especially in the army.
The relationship between Feng Ziying and Jinmen is just an unexpected surprise.
When I returned to the mansion, it was already midnight.
When I came out and saw the wind, I had almost sobered up from the wine.
After Feng Yibo passed through the main hall, he tiptoed.
I was afraid of disturbing some elders.
"Dongdongdong!"
I knocked on Sister You's door several times, but no one responded.
"Dongdongdong!"
Knocked a few more times, but still no one answered.
what's the situation?
It stands to reason that there are maids on duty keeping vigil in the outhouse.
It’s impossible to sleep like this!
Feng Yibo was a little impatient, but he didn't continue knocking.
Knowing that he would come back late today, I just didn't wait for him.
Not leaving the door open?
snort!
I won't miss you today.
Feng Yibo rushed to Sister You's house angrily.
This time with a little more force, the door opened.
have a look!
This is the gap!
Tomorrow I have to reward the second sister and let the third sister reflect on it.
He tiptoed into the outer room, and the maid who was keeping watch at night got up immediately when she heard the sound.
"Shh! Just go back to sleep."
Feng Yibo waved his hand and quietly opened the door to the back room.
Without lighting a lamp, he touched the kang in the dark.
He took off his clothes and got into bed.
It feels really good to have the warm and fragrant nephrite in my arms.
Huh?
Wrong size!
"Master, you're back, I've been waiting for you to fall asleep!"
A resentful voice sounded, but it was not Second Sister You.
"Forehead?"
Feng Yibo was stunned for a moment, then kissed the beauty in his arms and asked:
"Third Sister, why are you here?"
At this time, I heard someone laughing behind me.
Feng Yibo turned around and took a closer look, only to find that there was another person in the shadow behind.
You know without asking.
The one in my arms is the third sister, so there must be the second sister over there.
At this time, the third sister was swaying in his arms for a while, and said coquettishly:
"Master didn't come back, so I couldn't sleep, so I came to my sister's place."
Feng Yibo patted her behind gently and said:
"Okay! I just knocked on the door for a long time and no one answered! Let's see how I deal with you today!"
"So it turns out that I came to see me after being rejected by Third Sister?"
Feng Yibo's words aroused the dissatisfaction of the second sister. After speaking, he snorted coldly and said:
"Hmph! Not to mention, I hugged the wrong person as soon as I entered the house!"
"Wrong hug?"
Feng Yibo reached back and said:
"We are all a family, what's right and wrong?"
As he spoke, he already touched the second sister's side.
No longer being polite at the moment, I pulled with a little force.
The three of them rolled together.
A few days later, it was the holiday.
On this day, Feng Mansion became lively.
The maids and women came in groups.
Because Li Wan came with Jia Lan and Daiyu.
The most unexpected.
Also following is Baoyu.
