"Brother Jia."

Wang Xiao looked at Jia Lian, "Why do you have to borrow money again?"

Jia Lian was also embarrassed, "It was because of the matter of the pearl store. It was originally said that it would only cost 4,000 taels of silver, but after the store took the money, he said that he only had a share, and there were other people in the store. 4,000 taels were enough to buy him, that is,

During the third festival, I will collect some dividends or something.”

Wang Xiao raised his eyebrows and confirmed that Jia Lian was indeed trapped in the setting up a situation.

But he didn't persuade him more, but instead asked, "How much more?"

Jia Lian was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "That man said that as long as there is 10,000 taels of silver, he can convince other shareholders to transfer the entire Pearl Shop."

Wang Xiao didn't talk nonsense, so he took out ten thousand taels of silver notes and handed them to him.

"Brother Wang, I will never thank you for your kindness."

Jia Lian saluted excitedly, "When I put down the pearl shop, I will pay you back immediately after I get an income."

Looking at Jia Lian's hurriedly leaving, Wang Xiao smiled faintly, "It doesn't matter if you can't pay it back, you can get the dumplings... Ping'er pays the bill first."

Just as Wang Xiao saw through, when Jia Lian ran to find the store with ten thousand taels of silver notes in great interest, the store patted his chest to guarantee that he would definitely take down the pearl store within three days.

But seven days have passed, and Jia Lian has not received any news.

When I was puzzled, I went to find someone again, and then I was shocked to find that the person was gone.

No matter how stupid Jia Lian is, he knows that he has been deceived.

That was ten thousand taels of silver, and it was enough for him to buy his own girl.

After going to the prefect's office, I made a fuss. People said they would definitely conduct strict inquiries, but I don't know when someone will be found. Otherwise, Mr. Jia, would you go back first and wait for the news?

When I was in the capital, for the sake of Rongguo Mansion, someone would still help find someone.

But this is Yangzhou City, and the face of Mr. Lian of Rongguo Mansion is not easy to use.

The angry Jia Lian was wandering around Yangzhou City for several days but couldn't find anyone. Please ask the salt merchants for help, and they were all perfunctory.

In desperation, he had to find several owners of the Pearl Shop to see if he could recover some of the losses.

These bosses are very kind, but their meaning is very firm.

You are cheated by someone, it has nothing to do with me.

If the young master really wants to buy the pearl store, I will give you 20,000 taels of silver in my hand.

Jia Lian, who was cheated again and again, started raising money with red eyes.

His state at this time is no different from a red-eyed gambler, because he can't stand the cost of so much money.

No other choice, Jia Lian found Wang Xiao again.

“How much does this time?”

"Twenty thousand taels."

Wang Xiao took out the silver notes, but held Jia Lian's hand, "Brother Jia, this time it's all."

No matter how good the relationship between the two is, Wang Xiao cannot provide unlimited financial support.

It’s not that he can’t take it out, nor that he is unwilling to give it to it. It’s that he has to give Jia Lian enough pressure to make him at a loss to do things according to Wang Xiao’s plan.

Jia Lian's hand obviously trembled, but he still firmly took the silver bill.

"Brother Wang, don't worry, the matter will be done this time."

Looking at Jia Lian's hurriedly leaving, Wang Xiao smiled faintly, "Since you are in the game, how can you get out so easily? Brother Lian, don't underestimate the heroes in the world."

Things were as Wang Xiao expected. This time, Jia Lian took the shareholders to the yamen and completed all the official documents before giving the silver notes.

But within two days, something that shocked him on the spot came.

Although the store was sold out, the masters who made pearl jewelry in the store and the apprentices all chose to leave.

But when Jia Lian tried to recruit people again, he received news from the jewelry guild, and no one in his business would go to his store to do business.

Originally, Jia Lian thought this was a huge unlucky thing, but it was obvious that he was still young and didn't know that the real huge wave was still behind.

It’s okay if you can’t find craftsmen in Yangzhou City, you can go to various parts of Jiangnan. For example, there are craftsmen in Yingtian Mansion in related fields.

However, Pearl Teeth, which has a cooperative relationship with this shop, refused to supply the goods to his house, which means there is no source of pearls.

In the pearl shop that makes pearl jewelry, there is no supply of pearls, so you can still make some yarn.

This move is the real way to get rid of the firewood.

But the matter was not over yet. A few days later, when Jia Lian was worried in the pearl shop where there were so many people, he was alarmed by the roar of firecrackers.

When I came out to watch the fun, I was shocked to see that there was an almost identical pearl shop just opposite his house.

What's even more exaggerated is that the owners who sold him to this pearl shop before were all standing at the door to welcome guests.

Almost all of their customers were old customers in the shop Jia Lian took out.

Jia Lian, the second master of Jia Lian, who had been under heavy pressure, was completely ignited.

He not only beat someone up, but also smashed someone's shop.

Although no one hit him, if someone hurts him, he will have to pay medical expenses and smash the shop for compensation. These are unstoppable by the identity of Jia Lian, the young master.

The man sued the paper and sued Lin Ruhai. The prefect of Yangzhou personally brought the paper with it and handed it over to Lin Ruhai.

As for the result, Jia Lian was naturally scolded and was confined to go out.

Jia Lian was almost madly angry.

But the families of those who were injured by him carried the wounded outside the Salt Administration Office to cry and shout, which really made Jia Lian feel frustrated and want to vomit blood.

"Brother Wang." When drinking with Wang Xiao, Jia Lian's tears fell. "It's really hard for me."

"It's okay." Wang Xiao comforted him. "It's not easy for men. Wipe away the tears and lift your chest and carry it over."

After drinking a bowl of fresh toxic chicken soup, Jia Lian's mentality improved a little.

However, he still said frowningly, "The people outside are making trouble all day long, and I have lost all my face."

Wang Xiao thought to himself that you still have any face, but he said, "It's okay, I'll send someone to take some silver out later and I'll send it all away."

Jia Lian twisted, "How can you be so embarrassed? I have a good relationship outside, but now I'm confined to my uncle, so I don't know how she is."

Wang Xiaoxin said he was still in love with him, and this matter was definitely the same as that woman.

But he said, "You tell me the address and I'll ask her to send some money, and I'll say it's the living expenses you gave me."

Jia Lian was really moved, "Brother Wang, you are really my good brother."

Wang Xiao smiled and said, "It's okay, I like to eat dumplings the most. Since you and I are brothers, your business is mine."

"I don't know how to repay it if I owe you so much silver."

"That's it." Wang Xiao's smile faded, "I'll definitely have to pay it back, but I can be gratified until I return to the capital. What do you think?"

What else can Jia Lian be, Wang Xiao didn't charge him any interest.

Although he can directly pay for the debt, on the one hand, Jia Lian attaches great importance to face and really can't do such a thing.

Another more important aspect is that Jia Lian has seen with his own eyes how awesome Wang Xiao is. If he really annoyed him, he would not be able to withstand it.

"Okay, okay." Jia Lian picked up the wine glass with an awkward look on his face and said, "Drink, drink."

He had no other way now, so he could only drag it out and find a way to transfer the pearl shop to see if he could recover some of the losses.

Second Master Lian had just calmed down for a while, when Lin Ruhai found Wang Xiao.

"I heard that the Jiang family has already negotiated with Lu Jianxian?" Lin Ruhai looked up at Wang Xiao. "In the future, Lu Jianxian will not interfere with his family's private salt sales?"

Wang Xiao responded in confusion, "Mr. Lin, you should ask the immortal Lu Jian. What are you doing."

Lin Ruhai has been in the officialdom for many years, and he understood Wang Xiao's words as soon as he heard them.

The cold expression before thawed instantly. When he laughed, he reached out and lit him, "You young man, aren't you afraid of being revenge after you fool him?"

Wang Xiao shrugged indifferently, "Even if they are angry and revenge, they will go to find Lu Jianxian. What does it have to do with me, Wang Xiao?"

Lin Ruhai smiled for a while before turning to the topic.

"This time, the Jiang family is going to do a big business. They want to transport a large amount of private salt to various parts of Jiangnan. Not only does it make up for the losses in the past few days, but they also need to reserve enough goods for the next two months."

Wang Xiao simply asked, “How many are there?”

Lin Ruhai stretched out five fingers and said, "at least half a million stones."

After whistling, Wang Xiaoyi said with some slightest remarks, "Mr. Lin, prepare the silver bill."

Lin Ruhai said with distress, "I didn't know you were so powerful before, and the reward you set was a bit too high. Can you discuss it?"

The bonus of ten stones was one or two taels, which made Lin Ruhai feel very heartbroken at this time.

The Salt Administration Office will not reimburse him for this money. Even if the emperor is almost mad, he will never be able to give him money if he is sued to the imperial court.

In other words, he paid all the bonuses out of his own pocket and brought his own dry food to serve the emperor.

Even if you are loyal and loyal ministers, you can't stand it if you have too many such things.
