Chapter 288
There is a house in the northwest of Yangzhou City Central Avenue, divided into three places, and people are coming in and out, either rich or noble. The temperature in summer nights is just lukewarm or hot. The title of the Golden List is a big winner, the wedding night is a little winner, and the inspector Jia has married a concubine. Do local officials dare not come? Even if they don’t come, they have to give this money? If they give it less, they will feel uneasy...
This yard is a temporary headquarters arranged by the current Yangzhou prefect for the Censor. Jia Cong did not carefully check whether it was rented or bought, or robbed it, and now it has become his new house.
It is actually very simple for officials to marry concubines. They do not need a tedious process like a wife, a marriage, a six-ritual ceremony, and signing documents. They do not need to sing or gongs or drums. To get a concubine, you only need to give your concubine some money. At night, you can send someone to a two-person sedan chair and carry it to your new house. You will be a concubine.
At the beginning of night, four sedan chairmen, each of them came in a sedan chair from the backyard. The groom and the beautiful concubine were both wearing red clothes. Jia Cong walked out with a proud look. The guest did not see the beautiful concubine's true appearance, but they all complained in their hearts: "Josue Jia is still young and energetic, and he only married two..."
"Young people are terrifying..." Some old officials sighed that they were not unable to afford to marry themselves, but they were not as good as they were, and they envied Jia Cong. Most of them were devoted to the eight-legged essay at Jia Cong's age.
Under Eryou's red veil, he was shy, but no one could see it. Jia Cong smiled so hard that his face was sore. From beginning to end, he smiled. When they entered the new house, they went to the flowing table to toast one by one, and were happy: "My friend Jia was a little bitten tonight, thank you for your appreciation! Some of you came from Zhenjiang, Tongzhou, and some didn't have much friendship with me. They were all giving me faces. As for giving gifts and money, that's second! Mr. Jia didn't care about this! Come on! Let's respect this cup first!"
Dingdang!
Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding!
The sound of cups colliding first came from the prefect of Yangzhou and Jia Cong, followed by Gu Tongzhi of the river channel, Yan Ming, the commander of the salt transport commander, and then the magistrate of Ganquan, Jiangdu... descended in an orderly manner, and everyone stood up and drank the wine.
"The Censor of the Censor of the High School will relieve the people's worries, settle the capital, and set the money and grain, and make the punishment. Jiangnan is very lucky. How can we not admire the viewing?" Gu Tongzhi said a few words with a few words. He ran fast. When he heard that the Censor of the Censor of the Colonel immediately went down from Gaoyou to Jiangdu. Obviously, this matter is more important than the flooding of the Yellow River.
The Huai'an River Dock Office is in charge of the Qizhou County of Xiahe and Gaoyou and Jiangdu. To be precise, the entire river channel in Jiangbei is under the jurisdiction of this yamen. As an adjutant, Gu Tongzhi is also at the level of a director, and he is very proud of his face.
After a while, the guests were having fun, but the guests did not see the inspector Liu Zhiyuan coming. Shen Sanguan had been thinking for a long time. Yan Ming, who was not far from his seat, nodded slightly. Shen Sanguan stood up with a sad face: "I will not hide the fact that the Yellow River floods have endangered Yangzhou, west of Hongze Lake, Baima Lake and Gaoyou Lake are all disaster areas. The east coast of these lakes are also the canal transportation and salt canal channels. Our salt merchants and salt road masters are all worried and donated money."
"Oh? This is the first time I heard of this." Jia Cong was surprised: "I spent a lot of money in Huai'an, and said that I had a hundred thousand yuan in wealth. I rode a crane to Yangzhou, but I came here in poverty. I wonder how much Lord Yan donated in Yangzhou?"
"We can't explain in detail now. As long as we know, only one of us can sing a red face and the other sing a white face, we can reduce their resistance and get a million yuan in silent ways." Jia Cong instigated and encouraged him.
When Eunuch Liu thought about it, he suddenly became very happy. He understood and looked around everyone and comforted him: "Don't worry, it is our family's idea. It is also our family's report to the emperor. When the imperial edict is given, the refugees will be comforted, and everything will be fine. The so-called "Salt" is just a change of form."
Jia Cong was extremely excited. Now he didn't have to take the blame. When people were not paying attention, he wiped the corners of his eyes with wine.
Liu Zhiyuan secretly praised Jia Cong's warm water boiled frog Gao Ming, and said in surprise: "Why is Brother Shanhai crying even harder?"
Jia Cong sighed: "I cried with joy!"
