Jia She heard Lin Ruhai's words and understood that with Lin Ruhai's status and experience, he could say "too precious", so it must be a treasure of astonishing value.
He quickly stepped forward and took the red sandalwood box from Lin Ruhai's hand, placed it on the Eight Immortals table in the hall, and gently opened the lid of the box.
A ray of sharp golden light flashed away, and Jia She, who was nearest, keenly sensed a fatal threat from the small and exquisite gold wind scissors in the box!
"This is? A high-level Taoist artifact?"
"Brother, this is a top-quality Taoist embryo!" Lin Ruhai corrected.
"I took a piece of glazed gold from the secret treasury, plus several other high-level spiritual materials, and asked the elders of the master's sect to refine the Taoist embryo!" Jia Lian already knew what was going on.
Feng Qingyun explained calmly.
"Lian'er, why don't you discuss such a big matter with us?" It was Jia Zheng who spoke this time.
Zheng Lao Er is also his legitimate son, how could he not know the value of such valuable treasures? Even if Jia Min is his biological sister, Zheng Lao Er does not agree with giving such valuable treasures to Jia Min as a dowry.
Fortunately, my brother-in-law knew something and sent the baby back, otherwise...
"Second uncle, don't worry. Although this thing is rare, it's not too rare. Besides, even if I keep it, no one in our family can use it."
When Jia She heard this, he thought of something and asked:
"You mean, your aunt can use this treasure? Is your aunt practicing god?"
"Hehe, my dad's brain works very fast. Last year, I discovered that my aunt also had some aptitude for refining gods, so I taught her a god-refining method suitable for her. I found another elixir some time ago, and my aunt finally got started. Now,
As long as she has completed her cultivation, she can begin to cultivate this Taoist weapon."
The brothers Jia She and Jia Zheng couldn't help but look at each other after hearing this. Although they were amazed at their sister's ability to cultivate gods, they were really reluctant to part with this top-notch Taoist artifact because their married daughter had thrown water away.
You must know that this is the most top-notch treasure for refining gods. As long as this treasure is kept in the family, even if the family declines one day, as long as one of the descendants in the future can have the talent for refining gods, coupled with this extraordinary treasure,
weapon, sooner or later it will be an innate level of combat power!
What is family heritage? This is family heritage!
It's a pity that they didn't have the final say on this matter. In the more than a year since Jia She came back from Jinling to observe mourning, he probably understood that he really had no status in Jia Lian's heart.
Apart from being sad, he didn't want the remaining relationship between father and son to become indifferent again, so he didn't speak again.
Jia Zheng is simply unwilling to let the family's treasures go out. At least at this time, Jia Zheng has not thought about dividing the family.
"Okay, second uncle, this thing is really not that valuable to me. I promise you that if sister Yuanchun can practice god in the future, I, the brother, will also prepare such a dowry for her, okay?"
Jia Zheng saw that Jia Lian's words did not seem to be false, so he followed Jia She's example and remained silent. Thinking back, he already had a piece of glazed gold at home, so he could still afford the dowry!
Seeing that the two of them were taken care of, Jia Lian stepped forward and closed the red sandalwood box, picked it up and stuffed it into Lin Ruhai's hands.
"Uncle, you have seen that my father and my second uncle have no objections. You have to return the things to my aunt when you go back."
"This is my aunt's dowry, not for your Lin family! From now on, my aunt can give it to whomever she wants. Even if it is passed down from daughter to grandchild, you are not allowed to stop it!"
"What you kid said is my daughter and grandson too. Why should I stop them?" In this era, Lin Ruhai can say such words. He has indeed raised a gentle and upright gentleman.
The fact that he was able to send back this treasure that he had almost received so lightly shows his character.
Compared with the Jia Yu Village that was promoted and praised by Jia Zheng in later generations, there is a huge difference!
Well...it's about the vision of Jia Daishan and Jia Zheng.
"Hey, isn't this why you are coming home today? We, my natal family, are not allowed to scare you and support my aunt."
"Ha ha ha ha"
"..."
…
…
…
This year, Jia Lian was nine years old, and her aunt Jia Min gave birth to Lin Ruhai. It was also this year that Wang's good news came out in Rongxi Hall that she was pregnant again!
The whole family was rejoicing and celebrating, but Jia Lian was secretly melancholy. If the big-faced baby is coming, will Sister Lin be far away...
…
In early winter, Jia Xin, the general manager of the Jia family's village in Liaodong, came to report that in recent years, the Liaodong border army had made trouble for the Jia family's village. At the end of autumn this year, two villages in Benxi were attacked by the remnants of the Tatars of the Later Jin Dynasty.
, heavy casualties!
At the same time, someone wrote a month ago that the Jia family's caravan to the Western Regions disappeared less than two hundred miles away from Chang'an when it returned this year!
After learning about this, Jia Zheng hurriedly ran to Dongkua Yuan to find Jia She and discussed it for two days, but could not come up with any charter.
With this series of incidents, it is obvious that someone wants to pinch the persimmon tree of Rongguofu to see if you are soft enough.
The two brothers didn't care too much about the loss of a caravan and several Zhuangzi. What really made them feel threatened was the meaning behind these actions.
It is easy to deal with these two matters. If the two letters are sent to Liaodong and Chang'an, it will naturally be handled by local dignitaries who have good relations with Rongguo Mansion.
But the problem is that such a temptation cannot only happen once, it must happen again and again.
Unless someone from the Jia family in the capital can truly stand up to the problem, countless forces, large and small, driven by huge interests will successively take action against the Jia family's peripheral forces.
Even the merchants from all walks of life who originally took refuge under the wings of the Jia family will find new backers.
In the past, Jia Daishan was the biggest military leader in Daqing, so he could naturally obtain benefits ranging from gold and silver from trade routes, farms and unknown places across the country, but now Jia Daishan has gone.
It has been nearly a hundred years since the founding of Daqing, and the military forces are no longer headed by the four princes, eight princes, and twelve princes who were there during the founding period.
If the Four Kings and Eight Gongs group had not produced Jia Daishan, they would still be in a state of stagnation to this day.
After Jia Daishan, Emperor Shengyuan did not want the military to become too cohesive a group anymore, so he made a lot of arrangements and reorganization of the army. In the end, the Liaodong Army was led by Huainan Marquis Zhu Yu, and the Northwest Army was led by Jingzhong Marquis Liu Shigong.
The fact that these two parties were able to start taking action on the Jia family's huge profits only four years later was enough to give the Rongguo Mansion face, and at the same time it was enough to illustrate the great prestige of Jia Daishan in the past.
Fortunately, Niu Jizong, the head coach of the Jiangnan Camp, is the head of the Zhenguo Palace, one of the Four Kings and Eight Eight Great Men promoted by Jia Daishan. With this man around, the Jia family's base camp in Jinling is guaranteed to be safe.
It's just that Niu Jizhong can only protect some of the Jia family's interests in the south of the Yangtze River at most, and it is impossible to fall out with those two families because of the Jia family's affairs in the northwest and Liaodong.
People take their tea to cool off, this is reality!
Next, the Jia brothers could only send letters one after another to the northwest and Liaodong, spending more than half of the favors Jia Daishan had accumulated over the years, and only expected that the letter would drag on day by day.
Why not just give up?
A business that earns three to five million taels of silver every year, does that mean you can give up if you give up?
Besides, why are you so soft? You give up as soon as someone presses you?
What do those who follow you think of you?
This is the decline process of most noble families.
Is it okay for the handicapped party to ask for a vote?
