The so-called general is outside, and the emperor's orders will not be accepted.
After Yang Yuchun and Liu De took people to Taiwan, Jia Liu did not interfere in the specific war except for giving the general strategic direction.
As soon as he realized that he was not good at fighting, although his past achievements were astonishing, there was too much water in them.
To put it bluntly, Jia Liu always believed that he was an excellent commander, but he was definitely not a qualified general.
In this aspect of self-positioning, he still has a strong point.
Of course, the main reason is that it is not convenient to make calls these days. Even if he has any ideas, he cannot send instructions immediately.
Secondly, it also allowed Yang Yuchun to develop, so that he could grow up in the confrontation between Taiwan and the Qing army and become a truly useful general.
Now it seems that Xiao Chunzi is obviously smooth and has gained experience, otherwise Fujian would not ask for help from the imperial court again, and from what the old man said, the Qing army was defeated miserably in Taiwan this time.
This is a happy event for everyone.
"The affairs of foreigners must be investigated in Fujian. If there are Westerners who interfere in the internal affairs of the Qing Dynasty, they must protest to their own country through diplomatic channels. Those who should be punished in trade must be sanctioned. If it is really not possible, they can write a stern letter to their king.
rebuke"
Jia Liu's suggestion is a mature approach, which coincides with Liang Guozhi's idea of military aircraft handling.
Of course, there are no other sanctions.
The world's largest country doesn't even have a navy, so it still wants to go to the English Channel to set up cannons.
This shows that Jia Liu's career is far from reaching its peak. The so-called revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard.
After listening to the countermeasures put forward by Sixth Son Xiandi against foreign interference in the internal affairs of the Qing Dynasty, the old man agreed in principle, and this is what he did in fact.
"As for Fujian's request for help, I don't think it would be better to send all the Shanpu battalions, firearms battalions, pro-military battalions, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs' coating battalions from the Eight Banners in Beijing after the National Assembly to have a quick victory. Otherwise, it will really be a world meeting.
If the rebels get bigger, I'm afraid the southeastern half of the wall will be shaken by them."
Out of his original intention to think about the Qing Dynasty, Jia Liu kindly reminded the old man that in the Ming Dynasty, the man with the surname Guo traveled directly to Nanjing by sea.
Therefore, your court will not use all its strength to wipe out the rebel rebels in Taiwan. If the rebel rebels become popular, they will follow the example of the country's surnamed master and sail into the Yangtze River. The Qing Dynasty's land of money and food will be destroyed in an instant.
By that time, you, old rich man, might become the last high-ranking official in the Qing Dynasty.
"Um?"
The old rich man glanced at his six wise brothers with a faint look.
"Don't worry, brother, I have no other intentions. If brother is worried that sending troops to Beijing will cause trouble, I can lend him the troops."
Jia Liu made a serious suggestion.
That's really what I thought, nothing else.
"It's getting late, so I won't drink any more. You're busy."
The old rich man slapped his butt and left without saying anything.
Seeing that the old rich man was not on the road, Jia Liu was so anxious that he grabbed his sleeve and said sincerely: "Zhongtang, I'll see you off!"
"Don't mention me, my dear, you are busy!"
The two brothers wanted to give each other life and death, but the other would not give up life or death.
Most of the people who didn't know the inside story came out to smooth things over, saying that it would be better for him to send off to Fu Zhongtang. After all, he was the top leader of the Jia family anyway.
"Okay, okay, we have Lao Jia Weng!"
The old man got on the bus smoothly and didn't give Jia Liu a chance to get angry.
Helpless, Jia Liu could only watch the old boy slip away like this, and angrily cursed secretly: Next year, next year at the latest, let Xiao Chunzi lead troops into the Yangtze River, let's see how you, old boy, can carry it!
Just when I was about to talk to Bi Yuan about selling tickets, a relative came.
It was Se Kexi, the second cousin who served as minister in the Ministry of Punishment, and who had previously been working as a part-time job in the Zongren Mansion.
Uncle Se Er and Daquan are direct cousins, and they are also the ministers of the Ministry of Punishment. Of course, it is not because they dare not come because of the old rich man's notice, but because there is something really wrong in the ministry.
Second cousin Se is also here on behalf of his eldest brother, Prince An. Jia Liu must go there to receive him and wait until Daquan sends the rich man over to accompany his second cousin before he can escape.
Bi Yuan didn't leave, but somehow ended up chatting with He Shen.
Two generals, Lao A and Lao Kui, appeared. When Lao Fu was here, they were in the next yard with Brother Fifteen and his Master Zhu, and did not dare to come over.
"The old guy gave me a piece of white paper as a token of ten thousand taels. It's really a loss. He also said that he would give it to all the officials. What kind of punishment is this?"
Jia Liu angrily balled up the white paper into a ball and was about to stuff it into his mouth. When he found that it was too big to swallow, he angrily opened it and tore it into pieces.
"Sir, you really made the mistake of blaming Fuzhongtang this time."
Asiha rolled his eyes and reminded his concubine to send more greeters as soon as possible, because the officials coming to Jia's house later would be busy with traffic and incessant calls.
"What's the meaning?"
Jia Liu didn't quite understand.
Asiha chuckled softly: "Sir, think about it, even Fu Zhongtang came here to congratulate you with gifts, can other officials come?"
Um?
Jia Liu suddenly realized that he had misunderstood Lao Fu, and that he had really given Baiguan a special look to make up for his losses.
This is also a signal, a new signal to all officials: hurry up and give gifts, the policy is loosened!
"The rich are on one side, and the rich are on the other."
Jia Liu, who turned from anger to joy, wished he could kiss the old rich man a few times. The old guy had a good name, "Fu Jia Fu Jia", so lucky.
Then I thought about it, how could I be rich in front and poor in the back?
It should be Jia Fuyang.
"What are you guys doing here in a daze? Why don't you send people to spread rumors quickly? Send people to spread the news about the reconciliation between Fu Zhongtang and me. Other officials are so stupid that they don't know."
Jia Liu acted quickly. He went to the next room in person and asked Sun Chengyun, who was responsible for collecting money and accounting, to place the table directly at the entrance of the alley. He was afraid that he would be too busy by himself, so he also called a few guards who could write and count to help.
.
This will save you the trouble of being short-staffed and having trouble keeping accounts later.
Sure enough, the news that Fuzhongtang personally went to his consort's house to deliver gifts quickly spread throughout the capital at the speed of wireless transmission.
Officials of fourth rank and above in all major yamen have asked for leave.
The first person to arrive was the insider, Minister of Internal Affairs Jin Jian.
After learning that Fuzhongtang had given him 10,000 taels, the Minister of the Interior gave him 8,000 taels as a gift without hesitation.
The second person to arrive was the insider, Enming, the Minister of Works.
This guy was a bit cunning, so he didn't rush to go to Bozi first, but gave a red envelope to the secretary of the Jia family who registered for the gift. When he learned that Jin Jian, who had come before him, gave 8,000 taels, he gave him 9,000 taels as a gift.
There are one thousand taels more gold slips.
Jia Liu couldn't sit still. After thinking about it, he ran directly to the entrance of the alley and sat next to Sun Chengyun. When an official came, he stood up and greeted them warmly, and then watched them offer gifts.
This practice has caused hardship to those officials.
Some originally packed eighty taels, one hundred taels, or even thirty taels according to the rules, but Master Jia Jia was staring at them from the side. They would definitely not be able to make a move in normal market conditions, so they doubled or even doubled the price.
Several times.
That's it, the treatment is different.
Those who pack a hundred taels will not get a chance from Master Jia Jia to look at him again.
Only those who pack more than five hundred taels can get a kind words from Master Jia Jia: "Please!"
For one thousand taels, "Please come in!"
Three thousand taels became "Hurry up and come in!"
For those with five thousand taels or more, there is an additional sentence of "serve tea to Mr. So-and-so".
The one who paid eight thousand taels even specifically asked me to arrange a table for them later.
Queenie and Asha didn't even have the nerve to come over when they saw it from a distance.
This approach made the general ledger accountant Sun Chengyun feel embarrassed. He gently pulled his forehead and said in a low voice: "Sir, is this right?"
He wanted to speak but stopped.
"What is it? If you have something to say, just say it."
Jia Liu was surprised.
After a moment, Sun Chengyun finally said bravely: "Isn't it too shameless?"
"What is face? How can I get money to use it? If I want face, can I have what I have today, and how can you have today? Only if I don't have shame can you follow me and progress, and be popular and drink spicy food."
"this"
Sun Chengyun was speechless and could only continue to register silently.
Jia Liu was not very happy, because he found that the old rich man had set a ceiling for him, and dozens of officials came, but none of them paid more than ten thousand taels.
