Qiyuan.
Sitting in the warm and bright thatched cottage, the heads of Chen, Wu and Zhou San felt cold all over.
Qi Taizhong looked at the three of them with a serious expression and said slowly: Maybe, it was really a report from the Mei family, maybe it was the income collected by the Salt Courtyard over the years, or maybe it was obtained from the side. In short, the flaws left by the three of you have not been wiped clean over the years are now in their hands.Someone needs evidence, someone needs evidence.Need physical evidence, there is physical evidence.There is also the Bai family... The Bai family bit you inside, and of course, we also bite a few of our families.However, the Bai family cannot provide much conclusive evidence from us.But you three families are closest to the Bai family on weekdays, so they only offer you the most.
After a burst of curses, Wu Pin said with a grim face when he heard this: Then, let’s fight to the death!!
The head of the Zhou family looked at Qi Taizhong and said sadly: Qi Master, do you really want to kill us?
Chen Cong, the head of the Shen family, shouted: This is their conspiracy! They want to divide us, kill us first, and then kill you! No one can escape!
Qi Taizhong sighed and waved his hand: In the direction of Jinling, Jiangnan Camp, and the Governor Biao Camp have sent troops here, so don’t say much if you are angry.However, I went to see Lin Ruhai, gave up all my old face, and asked you for a way out.As for whether it will be successful or not, it depends on you.
Although Wu Pin shouted the most resolutely, he was so scared that he heard that the army had already been dispatched. However, when he heard that he had the hope of living, he was the first to abandon his thoughts of dying together. He hurriedly asked: Master Qi, please tell me quickly, how can you live a life?
Chen Cong and Zhou Jiao also asked questions one after another.
Qi Taizhong's face was solemn, his white eyebrows frowned slightly, and he slowly said: Your family has carried several family extermination cases, and no one can say anything without an explanation.Lin Ruhai gave two ways, one was that the family handed over twenty heads of the legitimate lineage and half of the family's wealth, and the matter was over...
Before he finished speaking, the heads of the three families became furious and clamored.
What a joke, twenty heads of children with legitimate genital genital …
The richer the family, the harder it is to support the legitimate son.
If you really want to hand over twenty heads of legitimate sons and grandchildren at one time, there will be no one left in the three families.
Furthermore, half of the family wealth is how big is that!!
At this moment, all the three families had the violent intention of sending death soldiers to assassinate Lin Ruhai's whole family!
However, under Qi Taizhong's gradually sharp eyes, the three families finally became quiet.
Chen Qiao, the head of the Chen family, frowned and said: You must let Master Qi finish his words. If Master Qi really lets go and fight to the death, do you still have a way out?
The three families apologized in a hurry and asked for advice again and again.
Qi Taizhong paused and continued: The second way is to give up all your family’s wealth, save the lives of the whole family, and leave Yangzhou.
After saying that, he closed his eyes and let another burst of shouts and scolding start.
After a while, there were only three families in the cottage, and the sound of breathing heavily in despair. Qi Taizhong slowly opened his eyes and looked at them indifferently, saying: The Bai family's files have been rushed to the capital for 800 miles, and the punishment is planned: all the males are beheaded, and all the relatives are sold to the Jiaofangsi and confiscated their wealth.This is a serious sin that will never be able to turn over.
In the midst of great horror, Chen Cong asked in a trembling voice: Qi Ye, where is the salt field? What to do with the salt field? If four stores are closed at once, half of the salt in Jiangnan will be affected, so they are not afraid...
Qi Taizhong sighed softly and said: Let the four of us take over for the time being, but will not sell it to us, but will sell it to other small salt merchants, lay off the salt court offices, and reduce the number of middle officials... In the future, the salt administration order will change, and it is impossible to want the eight companies to account for most of them.Don’t doubt that our four families have taken advantage of the opportunity. I will never lie in my life, so I can tell you that the salt industry and the family of Qi will also stop slowly.The way of heaven is easy to return, who can still occupy the gold medal for the rest of his life?I am afraid that I will make a profit if I have no life.After all, we are just merchants after all.I will say this, how to make a decision depends on yourself.
The three families who were full of doubts and speculations were full of countless conspiracies and betrayals, but after hearing Qi Taizhong's words, they no longer had the desire to be lucky.
Even the Qi family decided to stop slowly, there was really no third way...
Moreover, if there is really no way out of life, the three families will probably take the risk and take a chance.
It is not about starting a rebellion, but about ordering the salt people to destroy the salt fields and destroying the stock of salt.
These three companies combined can affect the salt supply in at least several provinces.
Even if the salt fields are destroyed, the salt prices will immediately begin to soar tomorrow.
But……
Now that the great master of the Qi family has asked for a way out, who still has the heart to be burned with both jade and stone?
Hui merchants and Shanxi merchants are still different. Shanxi merchants really dare to sacrifice their lives for money.
Kehui merchants...
Just look at their daily life and their energy to enjoy the money, you will know that they will not sacrifice their lives for money.
Qi Taizhong looked at the old man who knelt down on the ground and begged for advice, and sighed helplessly: The money has been gone and I will come back again. As long as I am here, I am afraid that I will not be able to make money?If you need to make a decision, then make a decision.My old face can't be delayed for a long time.Sure enough, the soldiers surrounded the three of you, and at that time they would take whatever they wanted.At this time, are you still confused?!
After hearing this, the head of the Shen family, the head of the Zhou family and the head of the Wu family all bowed their heads and sighed in depression.
Even if the Qi family has this attitude, they really have no way to turn things around.
However, as long as people do not die, they will sooner or later take revenge!!
……
Salt Courtyard.
After leaving Zhonglin Hall, Jia Qiang went to the living yard again.
Although Xue Ming is a person he doesn't know and has never even had a name in the Red Chamber, after all, he is Xue Pan's second uncle and one of the bosses of Feng's brand.
He still needs to take care of his life and death.
However, this time, Xue Ming's situation seemed a bit bad, and the imperial physician had not left yet.
When Jia Qiang came in, the cousins Xue Pan and Xue Ke were wiping their tears...
When Jia Qiang saw it, he frowned slightly and asked: Is Mr. Xue okay?
Xue Pan wiped his tears and shook his head and said hatred: The imperial doctor said that it was all because the beast of the Mei family came to make trouble. The second uncle was angry and attacked his heart, which worsened the condition.I'm still using needles now, I'm afraid...
Jia Qiang felt a little tricky. At this moment, Doctor Wang pulled out the silver needle in his hand, got up and walked over.
Xue Pan and Xue Ke asked anxiously: Imperial Doctor, what's wrong with my second uncle (father)?
Doctor Wang shook his head and said: The condition is really sinister, I am helpless unless...
Xue Pan and Xue Ke, who were already heartbroken, hurriedly asked: Unless it is something?
But I saw Doctor Wang looking at Jia Qiang and said: Unless Master Qiang can get some precious medicine from Tianning Temple, the ten-year treasure medicine of Tianning Temple has miraculous effects on high-heat lung abscess. If you have this medicine, you may be 30% sure.
Upon hearing this, Xue Ke immediately knelt down in front of Jia Qiang, kowtowing and begging.
Xue Pan also grabbed his big head and looked at Jia Qiang and said: Otherwise, I'll give you a few more kowtows?
Jia Qiang shook his head slightly and said: Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda.However, there are not many precious medicines in Tianning Temple... Forget it, I'll ask someone to get some more.
Doctor Wang said again: This second master Xue is already terminally ill. Even if he can save his life, he will be weak and unable to move easily. Otherwise, he will have difficulty breathing and even affect his life.
In Jia Qiang's opinion, what Xue Ming got should be a small amount of pneumonia.
But in the era without antibiotics, the disease continued to worsen and eventually became irreversible.
After he went out and told someone to get the medicine, he asked Xue Ke: If there is anything I need to do, just speak.You and my ancestors have met each other, and they are friends from generation to generation, so there is no need for heretics.
Xue Ke and Xue Pan have two completely different personalities. Although they are one year younger than Xue Pan, they are much more steady and bow to the end and thank them. Finally, they are a little embarrassed: Mr. Qiang, the other one is just aside, but my father is not inconvenient to walk and travel, so I may have to delay this for a while.
In fact, Xue Ke was still a little ashamed. The Xue family also had a house in Yangzhou Prefecture, but once Xue Ming moved out of the Salt Courtyard, it was almost impossible for Xue Ming to enjoy the treatment of the imperial physician.
In addition to the troubles outside, he still felt that living in the salt courtyard would be more conducive to his father's illness.
Jia Qiang smiled and said: What's the point of embarrassing? He is a relative, and my aunt is not a stingy person.
Xue Pan suddenly reminded: Brother Ke, if the lacquer medicine is useful in a while, don’t forget to send someone to inform the family.Also, let my aunt send you more gifts.From the Lin family, from Brother Qiang, from the Imperial Doctor, I... Of course I don't care, my family.But don't be stingy if others should give it.
Xue Ke naturally responded repeatedly, and was surprised that this cousin had indeed changed his temperament.
After half an hour, Tietou hurriedly took a small urn of treasure medicine. After the imperial doctor used the secret method to let Xue Ming take it, another hour passed. Xue Ming's high fever finally subsided and he woke up...
Thank you... Thank you Master Qiang...
The redness on Xue Ming's face dissipated and turned pale. After knowing the cause and effect of salvation, he wanted to struggle to get up and thank him.
Jia Qiang persuaded him again, so he said goodbye and left after he asked him to recover with peace of mind.
He knew a little about Xue Ming.
The ancients said: Watch people in the face of wealth, watch people in the face of difficulties, watch people in the face of neglect, watch people in the aftermath of drinking.
This is called the Four Views.
Jia Qiang had previously learned that after his brother Xue Li's death, Xue Ming did not take the opportunity to bully Aunt Xue, Xue Pan and Baochai three orphans and widows. Instead, he helped each other carefully. This point shows that his character is not bad.
Now, looking at his son again, he is calm and not frivolous, and his family education is not bad.
Look at his reaction between life and death...
He can do the best and no matter how good he is, he is at least not a traitor.
Even if the disease cannot be cured, it would be of great help to Jia Qiang if such an experienced businessman was on Jufeng Island.
But he was not in a hurry, and he had to think carefully and had to leave enough backup.
After all, such an important stronghold can be easily entrusted to others...
……
Shenjing City, Rongguo Mansion.
The big flower hall on the west side of Rongqing Hall.
Grandmother Jia sat on the soft couch on the high platform. Although it was cold outside, the ground was burning in the flower hall, but it was as warm as spring and flowers were covered with brocade.
Jia Mu's mood was as happy as the flowers blooming in the hall.
She held two letters in her hand and smiled at Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang who were sitting on the chair next to her: God, seeing Yu'er's father was actually saved!It’s really the blessing of Buddha!
The Feng girl standing beside her laughed loudly and said, "I want to say that you can't thank Buddha alone. If the ancestor had not sent Brother Qiang and Lian'er to send Sister Lin back to Yangzhou, how could my uncle know that the Western monk actually had precious medicine in his hand?It can be seen that Mr. Lin was saved because his ancestors divided the blessings that you could not use for, and then saved Mr. Lin.Next time, Uncle Lin comes to Beijing, but he has to let him live a good life, thank his ancestors!Otherwise, I will not obey!
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone naturally burst into laughter and support.
Jia Mu was also very happy. She saw Xifeng wearing a golden phoenix with a treasure pearl on her head, wearing a colorful butterfly with a colorful flower dress, a braised red silk embroidered crabapple cotton skirt, and wearing a pair of embroidered shoes with a big red magnolia embroidered shoes. She was dazzling and radiant. With such a refreshing and virtuous temperament, she loved her more and more, but she deliberately teased her and said: Don’t coax me here, carefully Lian’er was wandering around the colorful fields in Yangzhou and was not back.
Everyone laughed and made fun of Sister Feng.
Sister Feng's expression remained unchanged and she laughed loudly: Let him go, I will only serve my ancestors at home. If he is not there, he can't live?I am afraid that Mr. Lin, who was born in Tanhualang, would not like him the most. He could not teach him a lesson so that he could know how to write the word "powerful"!
When Jia Mu heard this, she burst into laughter again, but she felt a little uneasy.
That restless evil man saved Daiyu, so wouldn’t he be more proud after he returned to Beijing?
……
Sitting in the warm and bright thatched cottage, the heads of Chen, Wu and Zhou San felt cold all over.
Qi Taizhong looked at the three of them with a serious expression and said slowly: Maybe, it was really a report from the Mei family, maybe it was the income collected by the Salt Courtyard over the years, or maybe it was obtained from the side.

After a burst of curses, Wu Pin said with a grim face when he heard this: Then, let’s fight to the death!!
The head of the Zhou family looked at Qi Taizhong and said sadly: Qi Master, do you really want to kill us?
Chen Cong, the head of the Shen family, shouted: This is their conspiracy! They want to divide us, kill us first, and then kill you! No one can escape!

The richer the family, the harder it is to support the legitimate son.
If you really want to hand over twenty heads of legitimate sons and grandchildren at one time, there will be no one left in the three families.
Furthermore, half of the family wealth is how big is that!!
At this moment, all the three families had the violent intention of sending death soldiers to assassinate Lin Ruhai's whole family!
However, under Qi Taizhong's gradually sharp eyes, the three families finally became quiet.
Chen Qiao, the head of the Chen family, frowned and said: You must let Master Qi finish his words. If Master Qi really lets go and fight to the death, do you still have a way out?
The three families apologized in a hurry and asked for advice again and again.
Qi Taizhong paused and continued: The second way is to give up all your family’s wealth, save the lives of the whole family, and leave Yangzhou.

In the midst of great horror, Chen Cong asked in a trembling voice: Qi Ye, where is the salt field? What to do with the salt field? If four stores are closed at once, half of the salt in Jiangnan will be affected, so they are not afraid...

Hui merchants and Shanxi merchants are still different. Shanxi merchants really dare to sacrifice their lives for money.
Kehui merchants...
Just look at their daily life and their energy to enjoy the money, you will know that they will not sacrifice their lives for money.
Qi Taizhong looked at the old man who knelt down on the ground and begged for advice, and sighed helplessly: The money has been gone and I will come back again. As long as I am here, I am afraid that I will not be able to make money?If you need to make a decision, then make a decision.My old face can't be delayed for a long time.Sure enough, the soldiers surrounded the three of you, and at that time they would take whatever they wanted.At this time, are you still confused?!

Salt Courtyard.
After leaving Zhonglin Hall, Jia Qiang went to the living yard again.
Although Xue Ming is a person he doesn't know and has never even had a name in the Red Chamber, after all, he is Xue Pan's second uncle and one of the bosses of Feng's brand.
He still needs to take care of his life and death.
However, this time, Xue Ming's situation seemed a bit bad, and the imperial physician had not left yet.
When Jia Qiang came in, the cousins Xue Pan and Xue Ke were wiping their tears...

That restless evil man saved Daiyu, so wouldn’t he be more proud after he returned to Beijing?
