Jia Huan left first knowingly. Wang Xifeng and Ping'er also hesitated for a while before leaving. They would definitely have to go to Mrs. Wang's place to recover.
Only Feng Ziying and Jia Lian were left.
"What's going on?" Feng Ziying frowned.
Jia Lian is very busy during this time.
Duan Xigui is still in charge of the overall situation in Yangzhou. Haitong Yinzhuang's Jingshi Hao has not actually been launched yet, but some business cannot be delayed.
For example, the money collected by Zhongshu Ke will be transferred to the Ministry of Household Affairs, but the royalties handed over, the Kaihai bonds sold, and the income from the Dongfan Salt Service are all concentrated in Yangzhou.
It is very troublesome to transport such a large amount of silver back to the capital city. However, the capital contributions of the clans headed by King Zhongshun in the capital city have already been received, so the best way is to promptly transfer the capital contributions subscribed by the princes and clans.
Receive it and then transfer it to the account of the household department on the spot, and a part of it will be transferred to the bank of the household department.
This work is quite complicated. Although Jia Lian also brought back a few helpers from Yangzhou, they can only do specific tasks. On the scene, he has to deal with the shareholders including King Zhongshun, various clans, and even northern merchants.
You still have to ask for Jia Lian.
So in the past ten days, Jia Lian was almost too busy, from selecting the site to selecting people, and then starting to take over the shares, Jia Lian did not dare to let go of anything.
It was impossible for King Zhongshun and others to ignore such a big matter, so they naturally had to send their own people. The same was true for Shanshan merchants. Although Feng Ziying took the lead, they sent a few people as
Supervision is also what it should be.
But I have to say that the few months in Yangzhou have made Jia Lian grow up a lot. If it were a year ago, Jia Lian would never have the ability to deal with such a big thing. But now Feng Ziying has visited several times, and Jia Lian has never been able to handle it.
It was done so well that even King Zhongshun, who had previously been dissatisfied with Jia Lian's management, gave his approval.
This also made Feng Ziying very emotional. Sometimes it's not that the person is incompetent, but that he is not given the opportunity to grow. Like Jia Lian, if he had been hanging around in Rongguo Mansion all day long, would he have been able to get to where he is today? If there was no Yangzhou
With all the hard work of the trip, can he be able to withstand such a big battle?
Of course, this is still the simplest way to collect the share capital and transfer part of the money to the account department. For now, Haitong Bank does not have enough manpower to support the Yangzhou and Jingshi ships at the same time, but Jia Lian is really polishing it.
He came out and showed his ability to be independent.
Seeing Jia Lian looking a little tired, Feng Ziying could understand.
I have never been in charge of such a big thing before. Even if I have experience in Yangzhou, Duan Xigui is taking the lead there and Wang Wenyan is supporting me, so I don’t feel it yet. But here, although I am more familiar with it, I have become more familiar with it.
Being independent, you have to make decisions on everything yourself.
Feng Ziying would not ask about such specific matters, and Jia Lian was not willing to ask Feng Ziying about everything. It would be harmful to himself.
There were dozens of people under his command, some from the clan and merchants from Shanxi and Shaanxi, some brought from Yangzhou, and some whom Jia Lian dug himself when he came to the capital city. Jia Lian even invited Jia Yun to help, just to
This situation must be brought under control as soon as possible.
"Children are having fun, just let it go." Jia Lian said casually. He didn't take this matter to heart at all, and his mind was still on Yinzhuang, "Ziying, I plan to talk to Brother Yun over there.
Tell Xianglian, I want this person. I don’t have enough suitable people here. Yun’er people are loyal, reliable and down-to-earth. I need such a person on hand. Daguanlou, let Xianglian find another one.
.”
Feng Ziying didn't expect that Jia Lian didn't take this matter to heart at all. Instead, he talked about Haitong Yinzhuang and frowned: "You can just discuss it with Brother Liu. Why? I don't plan to return to Yangzhou. I'm going to send the capital to the capital."
Start working on it?"
The original plan was to let Duan Xigui take charge of the capital. There were several considerations. Firstly, Duan Xigui was more experienced. Secondly, he was still a little uneasy about Jia Lian. Thirdly, Jia Lian himself was not willing to stay in the capital. But now it seems that Jia Lian's performance
Getting better.
He is more familiar with all aspects of the situation in the capital. For example, he can easily recruit several shopkeepers who are in the same industry. In addition, he can get along better with the businessmen in the capital. Therefore, Feng Ziying feels that if Jia Lian is willing to stay in the capital, here
Jingshi can be completely set up by Jia Lian.
Duan Xigui straightened out the Yangzhou number and went directly to Datong to open the Datong number.
As the foundation of the Duan family, the Feng family also has great influence there. The Datong number is very important. This is also to prevent Shanshan and Shaanxi businessmen from imitating the same example and posing a threat to Haitong Bank in the future. They must at least establish their own precedence.
To develop advantages, it is also crucial to do it as soon as possible.
Moreover, cities like Guangzhou must be occupied as soon as possible, so Duan Xigui will be very busy in the next two or three years. If Jia Lian can take over the capital, it will also greatly reduce Duan Xigui's pressure.
"I haven't decided yet. I still prefer Yangzhou." Jia Lian hesitated for a moment, but then quickly added: "But we can't delay on the Jingshi. Xigui can't escape there for the time being. I will definitely do it here without hesitation."
, with you in the capital city, I have a solid foundation, at least nothing has gone wrong now."
"Second brother Lian, be more confident. I have seen what you have done during this period, and you have done very well. My cousin may not be able to do as well as you. You are more familiar with the capital city, such as looking for an office space.
, poaching people, straightening out relationships, my cousin can't do it so smoothly in such a short period of time, I mean it's better for you to do it first, as for the Jingshi Hao, as for whether you want to return to Yangzhou in the future, you can go anywhere."
Feng Ziying smiled and said, "If Brother Lian doesn't want to let you live in the house in Yangzhou, you might as well have someone send him back. If it's difficult to get into the house, you can keep him outside for the time being."
Jia Lian's face stiffened and he shook his head, "How can I still think about those things now? Your second brother has never worked so hard as he has during this period. Every morning when he opens his eyes,
I have to think about what happened today, I have to go out after dinner, and I have to get home in the middle of the night. I haven’t even slept with your second sister-in-law for so long, I really don’t have the energy..."
Jia Lian's words also meant that meat and vegetables were not taboo, and Feng Ziying also laughed, "Second brother Lian, this is not okay. No wonder the second sister-in-law didn't look good when she saw me just now. It's because you haven't plowed your own land since you came back, maybe.
Second sister-in-law knows what happened to you in Yangzhou?"
"Huh, I'm not afraid if you know what I do. How can a woman control what a man does?" Jia Lian snorted softly, "If you annoy me, I will do the same as you, buy a few houses outside and be too lazy to go home.
, when the time comes, she will have to beg him to go back."
Oh, Master Lian now has a career and is more confident. Feng Ziying is a little funny.
However, he didn't think that wild flowers outside like Yangzhou's skinny horse could be very fragrant, and they were just for novelty. However, he did appreciate Jia Lian's energy to abandon everything and do serious business.
Everything is difficult at the beginning. If Jia Lian cannot put aside his enjoyment and concentrate on doing things at the beginning like this, Feng Ziying will be really worried that he will not be able to shoulder this burden.
But now it seems that Jia Lian is doing well, and he also knows how to draw Jia Yun around to do things, which shows that he has consciously learned to control the situation, which is a good thing.
Jia Yun is a person who can do things well. It is a pity to be placed in Daguanlou, which is just a theater. His performance in the past year can explain a lot. If he is placed in Haitong Yinzhuang, he may still be able to train himself.
"Second Brother Lian, you should do the things on the Capital Ship first. I think it's okay to do it like this." Feng Ziying waved her hand, "Jia Yun, if you think you can do it, come over. I'll go over to Second Brother Liu."
It’s okay to say so.”
"Well, then this matter has been settled, and I will let Yun'er come over officially. Previously, I was just helping. I think Yun'er has some understanding in this area, and is willing to learn and work. She is better than the people who came from King Zhongshun.
Too strong..." Jia Lian shook his head, obviously not satisfied with the people sent by King Zhongshun.
"Prince Zhongshun and the people from Shanshan and Shaanxi merchants, Brother Lian, you should make the best use of people's talents and use them when they can. But the key points must be in your hands. The treasurer needs our people and the accounts need to be done."
It’s absolutely clear,…”
Jia Lian nodded, "Don't worry Ziying, I naturally understand the importance of such things. Yun'er, I plan to let him go to the treasurer's place to learn from the people we brought from Yangzhou for the time being, and let him get familiar with all aspects later.
business,……"
Feng Ziying didn't say much, "Well, as long as you have an idea, by the way, what's going on today?"
"Are you talking about Baoyu?" Jia Lian didn't expect Feng Ziying to bring the topic back here, and said disapprovingly: "What else could it be? I don't understand. This Baoyu is quite old, fifteen or sixteen years old, right?"
, I don’t do anything serious all day long. I’m either listening to plays in the theater or hanging out with Jiang Qiguan, Brother Zhong and the others. I didn’t think so at first, but now I feel more and more that I can’t go on like this, and I need to find someone.
Let’s have a chance to talk to you two gentlemen.”
Feng Ziying did not expect that Jia Lian could say such a thing. In the past, he did not have the confidence to dare to speak so openly in front of Jia She and Jia Zheng, and he actually suggested that Bao Yu should not be like this.
"Brother Lian, what do you think Baoyu should do now?"
"The government also said that they would find a suitable marriage for him, but they have never come to a conclusion. Maybe they think that the eldest girl has become a concubine, and her vision is high?" Jia Lian was also a little unsure, "Maybe find a suitable one.
Regarding marriage, get married as soon as possible and see if you can make him feel at ease."
"Brother Lian, you haven't told me what happened to Baoyu today?" Feng Ziying looked at Jia Lian and said.
Knowing that he couldn't get around it, Jia Lian coughed dryly and considered his words, "Ziying, you also know Baoyu's temperament. He used to be a little obsessed with Sister Lin. Now that he heard that you and Sister Lin are engaged, he is a little bit crazy.
I was stunned. I finally managed to calm him down some time ago. Sister Lin didn't see him very much anymore. In addition, Brother Zhong and Jiang Qiguan were also close to him in the past few days. Everyone thought it was over.
, I never thought that Qin Ye fell ill the day before yesterday, and Brother Zhong went back to guard his father. Jiang Qiguan was also busy in the theater during this time, and Baoyu had no playmate, so..."
"So, you're back to your old ways and have some unreasonable thoughts?" Feng Ziying said coldly.
Jia Lian was shocked and quickly waved his hand, "No, Ziying, you also know Baoyu. He won't be that unbearable. How can I put it? He is more like a child. He feels that Sister Lin is very compatible with him, so he likes her."
Talking, laughing and playing with Sister Lin. To be honest, although Sister Lin is younger than him, he is actually more like a younger brother. Well, I think Brother Huan looks more sensible than him.
Some, just like he also likes to go to Sister Xue’s place. In fact, he just likes a lively life and hopes everyone will care about him..."
I have to say that Jia Lian, his cousin, knew Baoyu very well, and his analysis and judgment were similar to Feng Ziying's.
This guy is like a child who has not grown up, hoping that everyone around him will be centered on him, whether it is elders or peers, and he has been accustomed to living in this environment since he was a child, so once he loses this aura,
So I felt at a loss and even couldn't adapt.
"It seems that we still have to have a good talk with Baoyu." Feng Ziying said calmly.
"Baoyu's temperament never grows up. I guess all the maids in the mansion like it. If Baoyu can take a liking to her, they will definitely be willing to become an aunt. But I guess like the legitimate daughter of a wealthy family outside,
I'm afraid it will be troublesome. Those who know Baoyu's temperament probably won't be too willing." Jia Lian was still very realistic, "Actually, this can be seen from the attitudes of Sister Xue, Sister Lin and even Sister Yun."
"Oh?" Feng Ziying turned her head in surprise.
"Of course the second sister, the third sister, and the fourth sister will not have anything, but the Xue family sisters, didn't they originally come for the draft girls in the palace? I heard that after missing the draft time, Aunt Xue originally wanted to let Xue
It was just right for my sister and Baoyu to get closer and closer. I guess both parties also had this intention, but they never mentioned it again. Now that the Xue family's sister is sixteen, logically it's time to talk about marriage.
I got married, but there is no suitable candidate yet, but Aunt Xue has never mentioned Baoyu again. Even when Baoyu ran to Lixiangyuan, the Xue family sister excused herself because of illness. Isn't this obvious? "
Feng Ziying felt that she had really underestimated Jia Lian. The conclusion she drew based on this delicate observation ability was enough to show that Jia Lian was really delayed in Jia's house before. She really wanted to let him go out and give him a chance to polish himself.
After that, I dare not say that it is pure gold and jade, but at least it can be regarded as an above-average appearance.
Of course, Jia Lian did not know anything about Baochai and himself, but presumably after Baochai saw the contrast between herself and Baoyu, even if he would not marry her, she might not be willing to marry someone like Baoyu.
