On the other hand, Baochai said from the side: "He probably made this move just to make Brother Bao submit."

Baoyu thought so too!

Then he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Brother Jiao, please don't lie to me. If you really just went to that yamen to have fun, how can you explain it to my father? Moreover, my father is also an official in the Ministry of Industry. If I ask the truth from others, I'm afraid it will happen again."

You want to scold me for playing with things."

"Ha ha……"

Jiao Shun smiled again, stared at Baoyu and asked, "But I don't know what brother Bao's ambition is?"

"this……"

Jia Baoyu has a salty nature and has always despised economic and official career. How can he have any ambitions that can be achieved?

Jiao Shun asked again: "Is it possible to regain the lintel and become a prince and general?"

"Brother Jiao is joking."

Baoyu immediately shook his hand like a rattle: "I am such an unfilial descendant. I am lucky enough to be able to bring less shame on my ancestors. How can I dare to think of princes and generals?"

After a pause, he added: "Besides, I really have no sexual interest in this."

"So you just want to be rich and idle?"

"Yes, yes!"

These four words hit Jia Baoyu's heart. At that moment, the little chicken nodded and said, "I don't ask for riches and honors. It would be best if I could just be a free man and watch over my sisters to live at ease for the rest of my life!"

"

Hearing his heartfelt words, the girls had different joys and sorrows, but they all wanted to know how Jiao Shun was going to deal with this unreliable ambition.

Just listen to Jiao Shun laugh and say: "Brother, since you want to be an idler, how can you miss this 'splendid and ingenious skill'? Maybe the wealth and glory of your life will be hidden in it!"

None of the girls believed this, and Baoyu shook her head repeatedly: "Brother Jiao, please stop coaxing me. I'm afraid that when I get to your Ministry of Works yamen, what's waiting for me will not be my ingenious skills, but my economic career."

"Brother, if you don't believe it..."

Jiao Shun raised his palm and pointed it at Baoyu: "How about we make a bet?"

"What gambling oath?"

"In the past six months, I guarantee that you will only associate with those who are clever and obscene in the yamen of the Ministry of Industry. If you have even a few words of lecture on economic career, brother, you will never have to go there again. I will answer all the questions asked by Mr. Zheng afterwards.

Responsible for it!"

After saying these words, all the girls inside were stunned.

Tanchun even stomped his feet and shouted: "Is this person crazy?!"

Baoyu was stunned, and after a long while he tentatively asked: "Brother Jiao, what on earth do you mean? Are you afraid that my father will blame you?"

Jiao Shun shook his head and said: "As the saying goes, times have changed. Although the brothers and Mr. Zheng are father and son, they may not necessarily know his thoughts. Now the biggest reliance of the house is not the glory of the ancestors, but the virtuous concubine in the palace.

Compared with the children's study and education, helping the virtuous concubine to be favored is the most important thing!"

"Now His Majesty is obsessed with craftsmanship and wants to revive the industrial revolution of the Taizu Dynasty. Who in the world doesn't know about this? There are many criticisms and conflicts among the important ministers in the imperial court, so His Majesty can't do anything alone. There are many constraints. That's why I can have the honor to advance.

Opportunity to become an official."

Hearing this, Baoyu frowned and said, "Brother Jiao, does he want me to learn from you and become an official by relying on craftsmanship?"

"No!"

Jiao Shun shook his head: "Brother Yi Bao is in the current situation. If you follow my example and become an official in the court, you will be inferior. If I were Brother Bao, I would never be a minister, but a detached confidant!"

"confidant?"

"Exactly a confidant!"

Jiao Shun said decisively: "Brother Yibao has such a temperament that he hates economic career, so he is suitable to be a confidant!"

"If Brother Bao can thoroughly understand the principles of those so-called ingenious and obscene techniques in the Ministry of Industry, he can use the path of the virtuous concubine to directly reach Tianting - and the expected concubine's marriage visit just provides a further opportunity!"

"By then, as long as you fall under His Majesty's eyes, my brother will naturally be able to become a wealthy and idle man who only cares about 'skillful and obscene skills' and does not care about worldly affairs and government affairs!"

Baoyu was stunned by what he heard.

After murmuring for a while, he used Jia Zheng as a shield again: "But what about Master..."

"So Brother Bao cannot fully understand your father's thoughts."

Jiao Shun said: "If he doesn't agree with this matter, how can he appoint you to go to the Ministry of Industry to expand your knowledge?"

As he said that, he said with a half-smile: "Brother Bao keeps saying that he doesn't like the official career and economics, and just wants to be an idler, but he doesn't even want to delve into the clever and dirty skills, right?"

"this……"

The "idler" in Baoyu's mind is obviously not the same thing as the "idler" in Jiao Shun's words.
