Luck in the heavens starts from the Red Mansion

Chapter 104 Interests gather people to seek subscription

Xiao Xiao lit a fire accidentally, Jia Huan took the silver, patted his butt and left.

After four days of being locked up in the house, the confinement was finally lifted.

At this time, the core senior officials of Rongfu finally found out the specific situation. Ma Yuan and his family had left the capital, and the court and local officials were secretly pursuing the investigation.

The people and forces related to Ma Yuan are currently under strict surveillance.

The bosses of Rong Mansion naturally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that there would be no safety danger for the time being, so they naturally relaxed the restraint on Jia Huan and others.

After all, you can't even shut down ethnic studies because you are worried about possible dangers, right?

As time went by, not only did the tribe become unbearable, but the gossip outside was not what the old lady and the others were happy to see, and it was not the Rong Mansion's fault.

"Brother Huan, you are finally out of the house!"

At the gate of the clan school, Xue Pan came up to him with a smile on his face and reached out to put his hand on Jia Huan's shoulder.

Jia Huan casually pushed the guy away and asked him to pay attention to the influence. This is clan science.

Damn, it makes him look like he just got out of prison, right?

"If anything happens, we'll talk about it after we get to the small martial arts gym after school!"

"Also, tell Ni Er and the others to leave, so as not to frighten the classmates in the school!"

He was very sharp-eyed and instantly saw Ni Er and several green-skinned gangsters scattered near the clan school gate.

All of them are scoundrels and careless, and they are not good people at first glance.

Didn’t you see that Lang Geer, who was coming in a carriage behind him, didn’t even dare to get out of the car?

Ethnic studies are still the same, and there is still no change when classes are reopened.

At most, the Phoenix Egg Jia Baoyu did not come back, but Qin Zhong persisted.

It's rare. Looking at this kid's enthusiasm, he has obviously integrated into it.

I don't know if the changes in the capital these days scared Uncle Dairu. The person in charge of ethnic studies simply did not show up and simply withdrew from the front line of teaching.

At this time, the main force in teaching ethnic studies was the Qingke Xianggong who was a disciple of the second political master and wanted to live a stable life and still had certain abilities.

Those motivated students have become completely accustomed to their teaching methods.

Privately, no dissatisfaction was revealed, at least teaching them would not be a problem at this time.

Jia Huan listened to half of the morning class and read half of the historical materials. There were no twists and turns.

After having a delicious big pot meal at the Clan School, Jia Huan took Brother Cong and Shi Shiran out of the Clan School and went to the regular stronghold of Xiaowu Hall.

Halfway through, Xue Pan and Ni Er took the initiative to greet them.

"Brother Huan, according to reliable information, that guy Ma Yuan is actually a core member of the White Lotus Sect!"

Although he deliberately lowered his voice, the surprised expression on Xue Pan's face did not diminish much when he said this, and he was obviously still in a state of shock.

Needless to say, judging from the look on this guy's face, it was obvious that Ni Er should have informed him of this news.

Otherwise, how could he still look so unbelievable even if he had a few days to buffer?

"Yeah, it's pretty much what I guessed!"

Jia Huan smiled softly, without showing any shock, and said leisurely: "This guy has exposed so many traces and flaws, don't you have any suspicion at all?"

Seeing the embarrassed looks on the two people's faces, he asked in vain.

Halfway through, there were some words that were hard to say, so Jia Huan waved his hand to signal the two of them not to talk.

When he arrived at the small martial arts hall, he checked the situation and found that there were no signs of being infiltrated or destroyed by outsiders. He was completely relieved.

Obviously, Ma Yuan's youngest son led people to attack and kill Jia Zhen, and it was really just a temporary move!

"Tell me, what's going on outside in the past few days?"

At this moment, Jia Huan asked Xue Pan, who had been impatient for a long time, to introduce the situation.

"Brother Huan, people are in a panic outside recently, and rumors are flying all over the sky!"

Xue Pan immediately frothy at the mouth and introduced: "Especially after Ma Yuan left, the White Lotus Sect madman under his command burned down eight official warehouses in one go. It can be said that the capital was shaken!"

"You may not be aware that you have been sitting at home these past few days, but the prices outside have increased a lot!"

"Do you know what measures the court and government are taking?"

Jia Huan said with a smile: "I can roughly guess what you said before!"

"I'm not sure about this!"

Old Xue Pan blushed slightly and waved his hands in embarrassment: "You also know that the Xue family's information channels in the imperial court are not very well-informed!"

It must be quite scarce. The Xue family is an imperial merchant, and they deal most with the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Household Affairs.

There is a huge problem in the Ministry of Household Affairs. It is estimated that life has been extremely difficult recently. How can anyone pay attention to the Xue family?

As for the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it is ten times more snobbish than having children in the Rongfu family. Father Xue Pan might have had some respect when he was here. Why should the current Xue family be so attractive to officials from the Ministry of Internal Affairs?

Those who have money but no power are called fat sheep. The Xue family does not dare to reveal their wealth too much!

"Pay more attention to the news from the court!"

Jia Huan pointed out: "It won't be long before the imperial court takes heavy action!"

Just kidding, the face of the royal family and the court was severely beaten by the White Lotus Sect this time.

If there hadn't been a fierce reaction, those heroes hiding in the dark would have come forward one after another. That was no joke.

"In addition, let the Xue family store transport a large amount of grain, grass and other living supplies from the south to Beijing as quickly as possible, and we will probably make a lot of money by then!"

"I guess by then, if your Xue family is really willing, you can even get an official position!"

Gee, Jia Huan is really envious of resource guys like Xue Pan.

As long as you make good use of the resources at hand, you can really easily achieve a status that those poor scholars can hardly pursue in their lives.

He turned his gaze to Ni Er next to him and asked, "How are the brothers?"

"It's all good, I'm just intimidated!"

Ni Er also looked scared when he talked about this, and said with a wry smile: "Who knew that the gang outside the city was played by people from the White Lotus Sect?"

When he said this, he subconsciously glanced at Jia Huan from the corner of his eye, as if he wanted to confirm something.

What disappoints Ni Er is that Jia Huan's expression remained as usual, showing no signs of anything unusual.

I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart. I was really stunned. I even suspected that Jia Huan had known the identity of the other party for a long time. How could this be possible?

As for what Jia Huan had said to Xue Pan before, he only regarded it as a joke.

How old is Jia Huan? He is still a few months away from turning eight!

No matter how smart he is, given his limited vision and experience, it is impossible to guess the relationship between Ma Yuan and the White Lotus Sect in advance, let alone know the true details of the small gang outside the city.

If Jia Huan really could guess it, Ni Er would not dare to show his face in front of him anymore.

If Jia Huan knew what Ni Er was thinking, he would definitely laugh out loud. You really guessed it. He did guess some situations in advance, but he was not very sure.

Are there not many scenes like this in previous movies, TV series, and novels?

Whenever a person has power and money that is inconsistent with his social status and identity, there is a problem that deserves attention and vigilance.

Perhaps due to the influence of the general social environment, people from high-ranking officials to ordinary people look down upon martial artists and those in gangs who fight and kill.

Jia Huan is different. He is very interested in things like martial arts.

It was also from this aspect that the problem of Ma Yuan, the former right servant of the household department, was noticed, which later spread to the small gangs outside the city, but the two were not connected before.

Even so, when Jia Huan asked Xue Pan to send his family guards out of the city to test, he was very careful to hide behind the scenes and did not take the initiative to expose himself.

As a result, Xue Pan was quite frightened.

This time, it was the turn of the green-skinned gangster on Ningrong Street.

When they knew that they had provoked the guys from the White Lotus Sect, it was inevitable that they would all be frightened.

"Brothers, cheer up and go out of the city to take control of all the rivers!"

Jia Huan ordered: "When the court starts to take action, it is time for them to play their role!"

"Master Huan, isn't it too risky?"

Ni Er was startled and reminded carefully: "I'm worried that Bailian Church will fight back!"

"Do you think it's possible?"

Jia Huan sneered: "The imperial court is afraid that it can't wait to uproot the White Lotus Sect. If you come to the capital to cause trouble at this time, what's the difference between it and sending yourself to death?"

"Although the White Lotus Sect is very powerful, how many lunatics are there who are willing to die?"

"Don't think too much, just do as you are told!"

"The eight official warehouses have been burned down. The imperial court will definitely urgently allocate a large amount of food and supplies to Beijing through water transportation!"

“At that time, just earning freight will bring you a lot of benefits!”

"Not to mention, we can also take the initiative to collect various food supplies from the countryside outside the city and transport them into the city through entrainment. As long as we sell them, we can make a considerable amount of income!"

Ahem, if you enter the capital market through normal channels, you will have to pay taxes.

These are not nothing, the exploitation of those low-level officials is the most fatal.

Otherwise, why are prices in the city generally 10% to 30% higher than those outside the city? The freight alone does not require such a large expense and consumption.

Even Rongfu's face is of no use when real money and silver interests are involved.

Unless someone in Rong Mansion is their immediate boss, or someone they can't afford to offend, they will have to accept what they have to accept, but they won't be so unscrupulous.

Ni Er's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he felt a little excited. He quickly said: "If this is really the case, then the brothers will be on the run. I will go find them right now!"

After saying this, he said goodbye and hurriedly left the small martial arts hall.

This guy is very serious about making money.

If he hadn't wanted to make a lot of money with Jia Huan, how could he have given up the loan business in Sihai Casino and instead gone to participate in dangerous rivers and lakes battles?

Although he entrusted the loan business at Sihai Gambling House to his uncle's cousin, he was so far away from home. Who knew if his uncle's cousin would be jealous of the loan income and kick him away?

At that time, he couldn't just go to war with his uncle's cousin over a little money, right?
