Jia She saw that Jia Zheng was still stubborn and could not lose face.

He couldn't help but said angrily, "It's said to be one hundred and eighty pounds, but what Lian'er just said also mentioned the elders of his son-in-law's sect. If I could get half of this amount, I would burn high incense."

And in the future, when relatives and friends come to visit during the Chinese New Year and cannot bring out the extra fresh peaches, wouldn’t it be even more embarrassing?”

Jia Zheng was speechless now. Jia Mu sighed and said, "It's just like what my grandson-in-law said. If he didn't talk about the peach tree, he wouldn't be so worried."

Jia She and Jia Zheng were silent for a moment, but Jia Lian frowned secretly.

Does the meaning of these words also mean to blame Shi Zhongkui?

I suddenly felt guilty for Shi Zhongkui.

Then a thought came to my mind. When dealing with my own father, sometimes I have to say the opposite.

"Isn't this ten thousand taels of silver per tree too expensive and a bit ridiculous?"

Sure enough, Jia She shouted angrily, "What do you know? If you had delivered fresh peaches worth 50 taels a year ago and sent them to your relatives' homes as a gift, it would have been a huge honor.

And the officer who sent it to the Ministry of Works said that the second child had to be moved up."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Jia Mu and Jia Zheng suddenly changed.

Jia Zheng glanced at Jia Mu and saw the old lady blinking.

Then he hesitated and said, "It's not enough to buy just one. It's really too expensive to buy three or five."

"If you don't buy it, maybe it will be cheaper for Yu Honggao." After Jia She said this, he said with a thought, "Didn't I say that I should give a gift to the old lady every year?

Don't give me peaches, just give me a peach tree.

His master also sent a peach tree to his master, so that the affection between both parties is taken care of and the trouble of how to distribute it can be avoided."

Jia Mu, Jia Zheng looked at Jia She in surprise.

Jia Lian cursed secretly in his heart, he didn't expect his own father to be so witty.

If you tell me, you won't be afraid of being laughed to death.

But Jia Mu, Jia Zheng, and even Jia Lian didn't speak this time.

Ten thousand taels of silver is enough to cover the expenses of the Rongguo Mansion for one or two years.

Besides, these words were said by Jia She, the father-in-law, and that is their son-in-law’s own business.

As a grandmother and second uncle, it’s really hard for me to get involved.

After thinking for a while, Jia Lian suddenly reminded, "Should I tell Brother Zhen?"

Jia She slapped his thigh and almost forgot about Ning Guo Mansion.

If Jia Zhen were to get three to five kilograms or more than ten kilograms of peaches for nothing every year, it would be not only a few hundred taels, but even more than a thousand taels of silver.

"Go and call Zhen'er over. It's hard for us elders to even say a word about such a big matter."

Jia Mu and Jia Zheng nodded, and Jia Lian hurried out of the house and went to Ningguo Mansion in person.

But before he had gone far, he heard a voice calling him.

"Lian'er, where are you going in such a hurry?"

Following the sound, he looked over and saw Wang Xifeng and Ping'er waving to him in the corridor.

Jia Lian had no time to pay attention to Wang Xifeng at this time. He said a few casual words and wanted to leave, but Wang Xifeng stopped him again.

He was also pulled into the circular corridor by Ping'er.

"Are you discussing about the fresh peaches in the second uncle's hands?"

Jia Lian was stunned, looked at Wang Xifeng and said, "You can guess this?"

"Hmph," Wang Xifeng snorted and said with a proud smile, "I still don't know what you and the elder are thinking, but I would like to advise you, don't forget my uncle.

When the time comes, he will blame you and make you walk around without food."

Jia Lian frowned after hearing this, but he knew in his heart that this was absolutely correct.

Wang Ziteng definitely doesn't care about one or two thousand taels of silver a year, but he definitely cares about face.

When the time comes, the Jia family is there but the Wang family is not, Wang Ziteng has no reason to find Jia's mother, Jia She and Jia Zheng in trouble, but he will definitely hold his niece-in-law accountable.

Jia Lian also understood Wang Xifeng's little thoughts.

She just used Wang Ziteng to tell herself that she had a big backer.

But this is exactly what most men hate in their hearts.

Of course, if you can get help from your uncle's family, then let's talk about it separately.

"I will pay attention to this matter. If you are free, go to Yingchun and Miss Bao more and walk around. It will be good for us."

"You don't have to say it." Seeing that Jia Lian understood what she meant, Wang Xifeng said with a smile, "My second uncle is so knowledgeable and good at business.

I could easily spend 10,000 taels of silver to open a restaurant with you and that guy Xue Pan. During those three days when I was in charge of the restaurant, I sold at least two hundred copies of those snacks every day.

Even the ice cream for one tael of silver can be sold for twenty or thirty portions.

This alone brings in 7,80 taels of silver every day.

Even if you only earn half of it, you still have 13,000 or 4,000 taels of silver a year.

Otherwise, no matter how good the food is made by the cooks alone, whose food will be worse than mine?

If you don't prepare some good-looking red cards, then Huixianlou will lose money if it doesn't work.

Moreover, the waiters from the Jia family and the Xue family in the restaurant are very smart, and there are many people in our family who want to curry favor with Yingchun and Baochai."

Jia Lian was stunned again, and then he understood, "You have only been in charge of the restaurant for three days, and you know so much?"

Wang Xifeng smiled proudly, "Who am I? Just do some calculations and I can figure out all your background."

Unfortunately, Jia Lian smiled and shook his head this time and said, "You are wrong."

After saying that, he ignored Wang Xifeng and went straight to Ningguo Mansion.

"Ping'er, what do Lian Er mean?"

After Ping'er thought for a while, she laughed and said, "Second Grandma, could it be that Second Uncle knows more ways to make money than we know, and they are all very profitable?"

"That's right." Wang Xifeng thought about it carefully. The person who could make even Jia Lian fawn over must be someone who is very good at making money.

"It's a pity that I started too late, otherwise my Wang family wouldn't be without good girls."

Ping'er secretly shook his head. The Wang family did have girls to be married, but every one of them was a legitimate daughter.

-----

Waiting for Jia Lian and Jia Zhen to enter Jia Mu's house, Jia Zhen, who had heard a lot of news from Jia Lian along the way, saluted the three of them.

He hurriedly said, "Old lady, if my uncle dares to make a contract in black and white, then my grandnephew can do this.

And it must be done quickly, lest Boqian’s master knows about it, and Boqian is only willing to give one to the old lady as a sign of filial piety."

"That's right, that's right."

Jia She quickly echoed, "Second girl is not married yet, my uncle's family is much more important than my father-in-law."

Jia Mu, Jia Zheng agreed in his heart, but couldn't help but murmur, even if Yingchun really gets married, you, the father-in-law, can't compare to his mentor.

Not to mention that Yingchun was just an ordinary wife, and Jia She's status in the Shi family was not even comparable to that of her uncle.

If Shi Zhongkui doesn't want to pay attention to him, Jia She really has nothing to do.

Seeing that the four men who could make the decision all agreed or acquiesced, Jia Mu asked, "How many pills should I buy?"

Jia Zhen said hurriedly, "Both Rongning and Ning will buy two pills each, and Bo Qian will give the old lady one as a filial piety from him and Yingchun."

Such an allocation means that we are exactly on the same side as Bo Qian's sect and will not put Bo Qian in a difficult position."

Jia Mu and Jia Zheng both nodded.

Although Jia She wanted more, when he thought of Yu Honggao, he could only sigh and accept it.

Besides, my son-in-law is not so calculating.

Moreover, this distribution means that the Rongguo Mansion has three pills, and it just so happens that Jia Mu, herself and Jia Zheng each have one pill.

On the other hand, Jia Zhen from Ningguo Mansion took advantage.

But he is a junior, and when the time comes he will have a lot left over, so asking him to send some over is just a matter of words!

Thinking of this, Jia She suddenly felt that he had taken advantage.

But Jia Zhen is not stupid. She gave it to the old lady out of filial piety and there was nothing she could do about it.

Although my father has become a Taoist priest, he is still nominally Jia She, Jia Zheng's cousin and the former clan leader.

Jia Zhen said that she wanted to be filial to Lao Tzu, and Jia She couldn't help it no matter how angry she was.

Jia Lian was the most anxious at this moment, holding back the worry of being scolded and beaten, "Old lady, should you also consider my uncle's side?"

"No need." Mother Jia was surprisingly attentive to the Wang family's thoughts this time, "Lian'er just tell your uncle, and let the Wang family and uncle discuss the rest."

Jia She and Jia Zheng nodded at the same time.
