The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

Chapter 525

Feng Ziying told the old man Jia Cong of the Han family to go to Chang'an under the order of King Yan. Han Qi guessed that if he passed through Taiyuan, he would stay in the inn where he almost died in his early years, so he sent people waiting every day to arrest him, and he was finally caught.Jia Cong tilted his head and looked at Han Qi for a long time, and said, "May I infer this?" He snapped his fingers, "Your mansion followed King Jin a long time ago."

Han Qiqi asked: "How can you see it?"

Jia Cong said: "From the point of view of the selection of fiefdoms by the kings, they did not pick randomly. The king of Wu loved money and chose the richest state of Wu; the king of Qi loved literature and chose the state of Qi which was close to the sage Kong; The Dushi Fang Xiong colluded and chose Shu. King Jin still had some advantages back then, and he belonged to the kind who could get the territory he wanted. There must be a reason for him to pick Jin. Your brother Han Guang was originally the parent official of Taiyuan Mansion. Although you are not very competent; then you also left the capital and went to Jin to become an official. If you say that you don't look down on King Yan or that you have no ability to show your face in front of King Yan, I don't believe it. From one location, one can guess that Jinxiang Bo’s Mansion has long belonged to King Jin, and even Taiyuan Mansion has long belonged to King Jin.”

Han Qi clapped his hands: "Excellent push!"

Jia Cong continued: "However, Feng Ziying actually ran to tell Mr. Han that I would pass by Taiyuan. Could it be that in the past two years, your family has seen Jin as a bad state and intends to switch to Yan? Brother Feng sincerely wants us to meet each other? "

Han Qi smiled and said: "We really think that the state of Jin is not good, but it is not in the past two years; we have seen it for a long time. Feng Ziying really wants to let you and me meet. It is not in our house that we want to vote for the state of Yan." Cong'er—" He looked up at Jia Cong, "Have you decided on King Yan?"

Jia Cong shrugged and said, "I have chosen King Yan Situ Pan."

"That's because he didn't like his son."

"His son hasn't been outstanding yet. Keeping a business is more difficult than starting a business. No matter how good the country is, a prodigal son can be ruined; even if he is not a prodigal family and everyone else is running, he can't do it if he hangs around slowly. Today is different from the past, counting There is only one opportunity in a thousand years, if you don’t advance, you will retreat.”

Han Qi was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Okay. Then I'll stay here in Jin. Whenever you make up your mind or change your mind, let me know, and my brother will follow you."

Jia Cong blinked, and then looked at Han Qi's expression as usual, as if he just said something like fried duck meatballs in sauce. "Are you sure? What if I lead you into a ditch?"

Han Qi said: "According to what you said, if you don't advance, you will retreat. You have a history, and you will be able to pick the most 'advanced' one."

Jia Cong said slowly: "If I say that there is a history, it is a rumor, do you believe it?"

Han Qi smiled: "Even if that's a rumor—" He raised his hand and pointed upwards, "It's not a rumor that you were in this inn back then. The disparity in manpower is such that you were attacked by surprise, and you can win That!"

Jia Cong missed the battle of Huizi that day, and said: "The main reason is that the opponent is stupid. The members of the Gao family are all veterans in the battlefield. How can ordinary street hooligans be opponents."

Han Qi said: "Why is the disparity between victory and defeat so great?"

Jia Cong said with a smile: "That time we really played well, I am not humble." Nai changed his voice, "Brother Han really thinks that younger brother has vision?"

Han Qi and him looked at each other and smiled: "Brother, I have long felt that my virtuous brother has discernment."

Jia Cong thought for a moment: "That's fine. Since that's the case, I have two things to entrust to Brother Han."

Han Qi clasped his fists immediately: "Brother, please speak."

"The first thing. The old Jin king is dead, and the new Jin king is on the throne. I heard that he values ​​Brother Han very much. I beseech my brother to advise him and popularize compulsory education schools in the Jin country. A century-old plan, education is the first. There is no one left. , nothing is easy to do."

Han Qi nodded: "This section is easy."

"One more thing." Jia Cong smiled, "Red Bone and I have already joined hands to make money." Han Qi suddenly took a breath.A few years ago, he was coaxed by Shi Li into swallowing a "Three Corpse Brain Pill", and he had no choice but to become a spy of S.H.I.E.L.D.In the past few years, all the affairs of the Jin Kingdom have been recorded in the files of SHIELD, and some things have also been learned from SHIELD; for example, although the Taiwan government has few troops, it has a lot of guns.He guessed that Jia Cong and Hong Gu Ji had tricks, but he didn't expect this kid to say it out of his mouth. "Many of today's firearms workshops are in the hands of Hongguji. The coal mines in Jin State are really eye-catching..." Jia Cong straightened up, "It is very laborious to get coal mines from Jin State. If there is Brother Han With your help, this matter will be much smoother."

Han Qi raised his eyebrows and said, "Does Red Bone have any ambitions?"

Jia Cong said: "Does being the world's richest man count? Even if you don't become the world's richest man, being an arms tycoon is still a big deal."

Han Qi thought for a while: "It's not difficult." After thinking for a while, he said decisively, "It's not difficult."

"There are also iron mines, and there are many in Jin." Jia Cong said, "And they are concentrated and easy to mine."

Han Qi was very straightforward this time: "Okay."

Jia Cong raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Han family's money will not be lost."

Han Qi's eyes lit up!The first king of Jin was stingy, and the Jinxiang uncle's mansion didn't get much benefit from following him for more than [-] years. Instead, he paid a lot of money and money.He couldn't help stroking his beard and laughing: "I know that Hongguji is rich."

Jia Cong winked and asked again: "Have you heard of the Shang Party?"

Han Qidao: "I heard that there is a merchant party in the Kingdom of Shu. They colluded with bandits in the green forest and made a lot of trouble. What they do is somewhat similar to the rangers in the capital. They specialize in dealing with the government on behalf of merchants."

Jia Cong said: "The leader of the merchant party is the Red Bone Story."

Han Qi's eyes flashed: "The ranger?" Jia Cong looked at him with raised lips.Han Qi understood.After thinking for a long time, he asked, "What does the Shang Party... want to do?"

"At the moment, it is to prevent the prince and the government from robbing merchants' properties, so as to leave room for development of free commerce." Jia Cong said, "The long-term plan is to prepare a political party representing the bourgeoisie for the future." Han Qi didn't quite understand.Jia Cong explained, "Money and power have been rampant in the world since ancient times. And when the two compete, power crushes money in the past. Now it's not the past. The business party's use is to use money to resist power."

Han Qi immediately shook his head: "Red Bones is too superficial. If the Tian family wants to take advantage of the merchants, they can't plunder the branches and vines, so increasing taxes is the usual strategy."

Jia Cong smiled and said: "Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the exchanges between merchants from various countries. Whoever wants to increase taxes can move to a place where no taxes are raised. Chu State also raised taxes in the early years, and it was not lowered within two years? Merchants They all went to Wu. The king of Wu not only did not increase taxes, but also reduced ideas. Besides—" He took a sip from the teacup, "There are also foreign countries. In order to attract the population, the foreign colonies have the least tax .”

Han Qi suddenly thought of something, squinted his eyes and looked at Jia Cong: "Cong'er, do you miss overseas?"

Jia Cong nodded: "I've always been thinking about foreign countries, especially North America. By the way, Brother Han, when King Yan conquers North America, I'll trouble you to help mobilize people to open up wasteland and seek gold."

The corners of Han Qi's mouth curled up, and he said clearly: "Okay." In the early years, the person from SHIELD once said that Jia Cong seemed to have the intention to wait for the princes of various families to conquer America and go there to take charge.This kid likes to take a slant when he urinates.

"If you can really hold the state of Jin, you can also develop industries." Jia Cong said, "It's like building factories in the state of Wu and Lu in recent years." He thought about it again, "Originally, it is best for you to directly smelt iron here. Okay. It’s just that… those technologies are temporarily inconvenient for Jin, and it’s not stubborn if they leak out. Forget it.” He shook his head and said, “Let’s wait until King Yan comes to conquer North America, and do it there.”

Han Qi sat and thought for a long time, then stretched out his hand and said, "Five years. In five years, I will take all of Jin."

Chen Ruijin had been listening, and suddenly asked after hearing the words, "Why did it take five years?"

Han Qi said: "I am not alone in Jin Kingdom."

Chen Ruijin said: "Who is hindering you?" Han Qi looked at her sideways.She asked, "Did you do anything bad?"

Han Qi suddenly became short of breath: "I have done it, have I not done it."

"More of that kind?"

Han Qi breathed faster: "Of course there are more of the latter."

"If those who have done bad things are gone, can you deal with those who have not done bad things?"

Han Qi said with a smile: "Above the court, good people are always easy to deal with."

Chen Ruijin smiled and said: "You Xia is tired of staying in the capital for a long time, it's time to go around."

Han Qi was overjoyed, and bowed to her: "Thank you very much!"

Chen Ruijin stood up and returned the salute: "Thank you, Mr. Han."

Jia Cong also made a long bow to him: "Thank you, Mr. Han." The three looked at each other and laughed in unison.

Han Qi didn't even have a meal with them, he straightened his clothes and hat, and left as if nothing had happened, his pace was much faster than when he came.Jia Cong left him the contact method, and secretly sent letters to Jia Xu in Beijing, Liu Feng in Sichuan, and Wu Xiaoxi in Taiwan to arrange contacts with Han Qi and start large-scale activities in Jin.

Chen Ruijin was busy compiling the coded letter, Jia Cong sat there for a while, and suddenly said: "The opportunity for this matter is that Princess Jian'an killed the first King Jin. Are we too inactive?"

Chen Ruijin wrote on the wall and said: "It's not always true. In the early years, everything was not well thought out, and it was not good to work hard. When the time comes, everything is cheap."

"That's right, it's a matter of course."

After the matter was settled, the group left Taiyuan Mansion for Chang'an the next day.All the way without words.

Today, he entered Chang'an City and went straight to Gaofu.The old lady of the Gao family also got the letter from Feige, and when she heard that they were coming, she hurriedly asked to go inside.Jia Cong went into the hall and looked up. Although Jia Taijun was still energetic, his brows and eyes were much older, and his white hair was much thinner. The wrinkles on his face were not added, only age spots appeared.With emotion in his heart, he stepped forward and knelt down to salute: "Grandmother!" Chen Ruijin knelt down beside him.

Jia Taijun leaned on crutches and stepped forward: "Get up quickly!"

Jia Cong didn't get up, he lifted his chin with a smile and said: "Grandmother, this is my fiancee Chen Ruijin."

Jia Taijun nodded: "I heard about it." He also ordered her to get up.Jia Cong and Fang stood up together and sat down beside them.

Taijun Jia looked carefully at Huizi Chen Ruijin, and asked her age, name and so on.The two of them had discussed that there was no need to hide Chen Ruijin's life experience from the old lady, so they bluntly stated that he came from the Qi State Mansion.Jia Taijun thought for a while and said: "I remember that the fourth girl of the Qi State Mansion was lost when she was young?"

Jia Cong said: "It's not lost, it's given away. Sent to Da Nei to be a female guard."

Jia Taijun suddenly understood, looked at Chen Ruijin with a kinder look, and sighed: "He is a poor child."

Jia Cong said brazenly: "God is fair sometimes. Ruijin had a rough childhood, so he met a good man like me, so he turned back." Chen Ruijin was very gentle today, and could not help but glance He glanced.

Jia Taijun smiled and said, "You little monkey." He couldn't help but sigh, "You are so old, you are going to marry a wife." Jia Cong laughed three times.

After a few gossips, Jia Taijun asked him what he was here for.Jia Cong said: "Ask if you have any idea to let Qin Guo build a compulsory education school."

Jia Taijun said: "The King of Qin has no such thoughts." Jia Cong frowned.Jia Taijun thought for a while and said, "Is it so important to build a school?"

Jia Cong nodded: "It's really important."

Jia Taijun said: "Then the Gao family will be built. It's just reading a few enlightenment booklets, and it won't cost a lot of money."

Jia Cong said: "The Gao family is known to be rich. It's just that the Gao family built a school in Qin's territory, won't the king of Qin be suspicious?"

Taijun Jia snorted, "Wouldn't the King of Qin be suspicious if the Gao family didn't build a school?" Nai raised his head and said, "He really wishes that our family could move to Ping'an Prefecture, but he doesn't want to leave."

Jia Cong laughed out loud, and said again: "He won't treat you as a serious problem."

Jia Taijun said: "In the early years, I still wanted to win over our family, but I started to avoid it four or five years ago. In the past two years, because I doted on someone like Ding Chu, I gradually disliked the Gao family."

Jia Cong pulled off his ears: "What's his name?"

Jia Taijun said: "It's called Ding Chu. Have you heard of it?"

Jia Cong hurriedly turned to look at Chen Ruijin, and Chen Ruijin said, "Mr. Gong never told me."

Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "Could it be the same name and surname?" Nai dipped his finger in the tea and wrote the word "Chu" on the desk, "Auntie, do you see that Ding Chu's name is this? How old are you?"

Jia Taijun nodded: "That's right, that's the word. Mr. Nading is in his 30s and less than [-] years old."

"There are not many people who use this character as a name." Jia Cong said, "The age is also right, most likely it is that Ding Chu." Nai shook his head and said, "Old man Gong is doing something secretly by himself again."

But at this moment, someone from outside came in and said: "General Ou Cheng is here!"

Jia Cong stood up happily, and said to Chen Ruijin: "In the early years, I wanted to learn from Uncle Ou as my teacher and learn real kung fu from him. Unfortunately, my father snatched it away, and I pestered him to fight every day." Haha laughed.

Not long after, Ou Cheng strode in and walked in. More than ten years have passed and he hasn't aged at all.Jia Cong ran up and shouted: "Uncle Ou!" Just as he was about to salute, Ou Cheng grabbed his arm: "Master Cong, will you decide the case?"

Jia Cong was startled: "Huh?"

Ou Cheng said anxiously: "That year you were in a hurry to return to Beijing, wasn't it because Second Master Bao was wronged? Later on, you were the one who saw the truth and solved the case for him!"

Jia Cong rubbed the back of his head and said, "That matter... was a fluke." I made up the process after I had the answer.

Jia Taijun asked, "General Ou, what happened?"

Ou Cheng snorted: "The blind men who died at Mingde Gate, they must have been killed by Brother Jiang!"
