On the other side, Lian Er went straight to the clan school after going to the Yamen.
At this time, Jia Rong usually sits in the clan school to deal with possible emergencies.
Speaking of which, Jia Rong is definitely a strange existence among the noble children.
When Mr. Zhen was the head of the family, he often went out to hang out with his peers and was a frequent visitor to major brothels and gambling houses.
It's just that I was young at the time, so I didn't make any jokes.
But when he became the master of the house, he immediately seemed like a new person.
He spends his whole day either thinking about business and making money, or trying to improve the overall strength of the Jia family.
Although he got married early, he is still young and spends all his time sitting in a family school and other places, which makes his familiar playmates reluctant to visit him easily.
As time goes by, the relationship gradually becomes distant.
Lian Er naturally found it difficult to understand. As far as he was concerned, no matter how busy the affairs of the Hubu Yamen were, it would not hinder him from gathering with his friends.
Of course, Chain 2 is completely transformed compared to the past, and basically no longer plays those unreliable tricks.
Another thing Lian Er didn't expect was that he heard a very shocking news from the mouth of a friend who was also a noble son.
The 'shattering' person who suddenly appeared and wrote such popular novels as "The Biography of Chen Shimei" and "The Cornucopia" turned out to be Brother Rong's vest.
It’s no wonder that the Jia family’s benevolence and righteousness are highlighted everywhere in the story of “The Cornucopia”.
He did not inform the old lady about this.
There were some things that he actually disagreed with the old lady's approach.
For example, when Baoyu made a fuss at Ning Mansion Girls' School, it was originally a child's act of throwing a tantrum, but the old lady decided to make a fuss in a big way, and was slapped in the face by Brother Rong.
And when it comes to treating Uncle Lin, his attitude is too chilling.
Lian Er just couldn't figure it out. Even if Uncle Lin wasn't popular nowadays, he was actually a second-grade border official. How could he have the confidence to alienate him in the government?
Now, no matter whether it is from the story of "Treasure Bowl" or from the mouths of his friends, the information he knows about Jin Province is something that Brother Rong cannot easily get around.
He even vaguely heard that the coal mine issue in Jin Province was actually managed by Brother Rong.
Lian Er believed this almost 50% of the time.
The Polo League is the best proof!
In addition, Brother Rong told him at the beginning that there was actually a better profitable business to do, but Ning Rong's Second Mansion couldn't control the situation at all.
Now that I think about it, it should be the briquettes and briquette stoves that have become completely popular in Beijing and Zhili areas.
In fact, considering what happened in the court, the timing of the appearance of "Chen Shimei's Biography", and the subsequent series of changes, it is difficult not to make Lian Er suspect that this was the result of a series of actions.
By the time "Cornucopia" appeared, the dust had basically settled.
However, he couldn't figure out how Brother Rong got involved with the core members of the Xungui Group. This was not easy.
Lian Er knew what was going on, and it was probably too late to go find Brother Rong at this time.
But since the old lady had already given the order, he might as well go and ask Brother Rong: Why did you leave Rong Mansion aside for such a good thing?
"It's not that I meant it, but Xifu has no way to participate in this matter!"
Facing Lian Er's inquiry, Jia Rong answered very calmly: "Uncle Lian Er should know what happened in the court before, which was to clean up the Jin Province!"
"There was such a big commotion back then, and it was only because the Xungui Group spent a huge price to accomplish this!"
"If the Xifu is asked to contribute at that time, does Second Uncle Lian think that the old lady may take great risks?"
Lian Er smiled bitterly and shook his head, this is a sure thing.
The highest decision-maker in the Rong Mansion is Jia Mu, and the most core human resources in the Mansion are also in the hands of the old lady.
For example, the risks involved in suppressing the officialdom of Jin Province and the affairs of the country squires are too great, and the old lady will not easily participate.
"Isn't this the end?"
Jia Rong said with a smile: "You didn't come when it was time to take risks and contribute. Now it's time to share the fruits. Why should Xifu get a share of the pie?"
Lian Er was speechless for a moment and felt very lost.
This feeling of being marginalized by the Honorable Group is not pleasant.
He still wants to lose face. If it were the old lady or the second wife, she would probably make trouble with the Jia family.
Anyway, the Jia family in the capital is one family. Ning Mansion has contributed, and what happened to Rong Mansion following Zhan Guang? Could it be that the close relationship between Ning and Rong Mansion is fake?
He had no shame in saying such words in front of Jia Rong.
"Besides, the coal mines in Jin Province are not so easy to control!"
Jia Rong, no matter what Lian Er's thoughts are, it is best to explain everything that needs to be said clearly and to put the matter on the table.
"Second Uncle Lian must have heard or read "The Cornucopia" I wrote!"
"Some of the situations in it are all inferred by me based on the actual situation, and there shouldn't be much deviation!"
"Coal mines can be said to be mountains of gold and silver, containing amazing benefits!"
"Second Uncle Lian should understand that some people and forces are willing to do anything in order to compete for their own interests!"
"If nothing else, does Rongfu have enough force to ensure the environmental safety of the coal mine and the specific production safety?"
"You know, there have been armed conflicts involving hundreds of people over the competition for several large coal mines in Shanxi Province!"
"impossible?"
Lian Er was startled, shook his head and said, "Don't the local officials just care?"
At this time, he thought of Lin Ruhai, who was the chief envoy of Jin Province.
"Control? How?"
Jia Rong sneered: "When armed conflicts break out, they all have big backgrounds and powerful forces. They are even powerful forces in the court. How can local officials dare to get involved easily?"
"As long as it doesn't involve civilians or there are serious casualties, the local government won't bother to pay more attention!"
When Lian Er heard this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
He didn't think that Jia Rong was trying to scare him. There was no need to do so.
Rongfu, or rather the old lady, wants a complete large coal mine, and does not want a share of the coal mine controlled by Ningfu, so there is not much conflict of interest.
In other words, if you want to conquer the muddy waters of Jin Province's coal mines, you must be prepared with sufficient force.
It's just that the family in Rong Mansion gave birth to a son, hey, let's not talk about it.
“Second Uncle Lian, there’s something else you didn’t expect!”
Seeing Lian Er's expression, Jia Rong spoke more clearly, lest this guy was tricked and didn't know it: "Once the Xifu gets what it wants, there must be a reliable person to take command and deal with possible unexpected changes!"
"When the time comes, I guess Uncle Lian will have to resign and return home to deal with such matters..."
