!”

Lin Ruhai said softly: "It's not easy for you not to be blinded by a moment of anger. But right now, there is no evidence. The Xiuyi Guards are investigating, but most of them can't find anything out about this kind of thing.

At this time, it is more appropriate to hold back and say nothing than to launch a large-scale prison edict."

Jia Qiang frowned, although she also knew that Emperor Long'an had just taken over the power and taken over the Zhao family, which was a warning to the monkeys. It not only hurt Jingchu's old ministers, but also cleared up a lot of positions, and also took the Zhao family's wealth.

To make up for the shortfall of the imperial court. But we cannot let this fire burn any longer, otherwise all the old ministers of Jingchu will be in danger and instead join forces, and the situation will be unfavorable.

However, when Lin Ruhai was assassinated, he only killed the Zhao family, but because he threw a rat weapon, he let the instigator behind it go, which really made Jia Qiang feel dissatisfied.

He asked Lin Ruhai: "Sir, where is Jing Chaoyun?"

Lin Ruhai slowly shook his head and said: "Jing Chaoyun asked to resign and beg for his body to become an official, but was not allowed. The emperor not only excused him, but also pardoned his sister, Zhao Dongshan's wife, and allowed her to return to the Jing family."

When Aunt Mei heard this, she immediately said unhappily: "Why is this so?"

Jia Qiang's expression turned strange. She blinked at Lin Ruhai. Emperor Long'an's move was a bit cruel...

Lin Ruhai chuckled softly and said: "This matter was definitely not planned by Jing Chaoyun. Because Jing Chaoyun was the worst victim of such a thing. He would never want to see such a rough thing happen."

Jia Qiang explained to Aunt Mei: "Moreover, the Zhao family is destroyed, leaving only Jing Chaoyun's sister alive, and her two sons will also be executed. How can we not make a big fuss after returning to the Jing family? Sometimes, people are more alive than others.

It's harder to die. The harder it is for this woman, the harder it is for Jing Chaoyun. But..."

He changed the topic and looked at Lin Ruhai again: "That's it?"

Lin Ruhai smiled faintly and said: "What else do you want? By the way, the emperor originally wanted to send me a chariot to send me back, but naturally I couldn't accept it. He also rewarded four dragon guards as escorts, and four palace servants to serve them...

I firmly resigned. Well, the emperor's kindness is so profound. If a minister is dissatisfied, it means he is ignorant. Qiang'er came today, is there anything?"

When Jia Qiang heard this, she glanced at Daiyu. Daiyu looked over with some emotion in her heart. She glared at him with her beautiful eyes and told him not to talk nonsense. However, she also had some small expectations in her heart. She had some expectations.

A little rebellion is coming...

Jia Qiang coughed dryly and said with a smile: "I just came to see sir and junior sister..."

Seeing that he was uncomfortable, Lin Ruhai looked at Daiyu and smiled. Daiyu only smiled, her pretty face turned red, and she lowered her head and said nothing.

Aunt Mei took Daiyu's hand and said with a smile: "Let the master and Brother Qiang talk about serious matters. Miss, follow me to the kitchen to have a look."

After the two left, Jia Qiang's expression immediately changed, and with a solemn expression she told the news that Jia Mu had received from Aunt Xue, and finally gritted her teeth and said bitterly: "Sir, what on earth do Jia Jing and his wife think?

?How dare they do this kind of thing?"

Lin Ruhai also frowned and said slowly: "If you go up the right path, you are afraid of hardship and tiredness, so you naturally want to go on the wrong path."

Jia Qiang laughed angrily and said, "Then they are not afraid of death?"

Lin Ruhai shook his head and said: "People who think they are self-righteous usually think that others are fools..." Seeing that Jia Qiang's face was really ugly, Lin Ruhai smiled and said: "Qiang'er, don't worry too much, those people were almost dead back then.

.Even if there is really someone alive, what is the purpose of threatening the Jia family, it is a matter of the Dongfu Dafang, and you have no idea about it. With the relationship between you and the palace, this matter can only be regarded as a trivial matter.

.If the person from the eldest family inherits the title, it will be a disaster."

After hearing this, Jia Qiang's face softened a little and said: "That's good... Sir, there is one more thing. Ding Hao, the leader of the Caobang, came to Beijing. He sent a greeting card at noon today, saying that he would come to visit in the evening. Caobang, it is beneficial. There are disadvantages. It is definitely not a blessing if one family is the only one. Of course, this is for public and private purposes. I want the fleet under my name to get a share of the pie. Nowadays, the grain transported to Beijing by water is about 4 million shi every year. It costs no less than twenty taels to transport one stone of grain."

He had previously read the "Complete Book of Water Transport of the Ministry of Finance", which recorded: "Only one stone of normal grain for the original transportation, and the additional consumption varies from three to four bushels. In addition, there are supplements, gifts, rinsing, rice and other rice. There are also things such as kicking, steady jumping, emptying baskets, cabin cushions, etc. In Ding, there is the moon, in the ship, it needs to be repaired and built, in the collection, it is more light money, mats, and the Yamen servants need to cheat the grain. It's just a matter of borrowing money to interfere with science, and it's just a matter of asking for a low price, but it's still not the same."

In short, the cost of transporting one stone of grain far exceeds one stone of grain itself.

Therefore, the water transport industry is not only guarding a canal, but a golden river!

The most important thing is...

"Mr. has always had the ambition to replace the shortcomings of water transportation with sea transportation! However, someone in the previous dynasty had tried it. The cost of four million stone grains was about 12 million to 16 million stone grains, and The cost of sea transportation is only four million dan. The reason why the reform failed is because one water transport involves the interests of too many people. Cutting off people's money is like killing their parents. It is absolutely impossible for Mr. to directly engage in sea transportation, and there will be resistance. Many things. If I had not done the water transport first, it would have paralyzed the enemy and made them feel at ease and not think that the Ministry of Revenue would engage in sea transport. Secondly, and more importantly, the sea transport would not be completed in one day, and it would take a long time to turn around and experiment. This time In this section, there will definitely be a water transport strike. If we have our own water transport team, it will be much safer."

Lin Ruhai heard the words and said slowly: "Is this a plan to build the plank road openly and secretly use it to destroy Chencang?"

Jia Qiang smiled and said: "I am not mature enough to think..."

Lin Ruhai smiled and asked: "If this is true, what will happen to your fleet after water transportation is changed to sea transportation? As far as I know, river boats cannot enter the sea."

Jia Qiang shook her head and said: "I won't make it big, and in fact I can't make it big. So even if water transportation is changed to sea transportation one day, transportation capacity will still be needed on the canal. Sea transportation goes from the mouth of the Yangtze River to Tianjin. And there are many cities on both sides of the canal. , the necessary commercial river transportation is enough to support my fleet."

Even before he crossed over, there were still dense ships running on the big rivers.

Even if most of the canal has been abandoned, it was only after the rise of the railway network...

Lin Ruhai looked at Jia Qiang and said with a smile: "Since you have this plan, is there any good way to convince Ding Hao to let you join the canal transport and get a share of the pie?"

Jia Qiang chuckled and said: "It's nothing more than pulling the tiger's skin and trying to frighten him with the dispute over sea transportation and water transportation. This time, I'm going to play the role of Gao Yanei and bully others with my strength! Don't you dare? Let me go into water transport, and I will go into sea transport!"

"Hahaha!"
