Chapter 403

Official matters left him no time to do business.

He was clear.

Just raiding homes and investing money was always unstable.

And he didn't want the stable income from manors like the Ning and Rong Prefectures.

So running a proper business was the right thing to do.

After all, in the future, he wouldn't just be supporting the hundreds of people in the Wushuang Earl's Mansion.

He also had to support a larger army.

So making money was not a small matter, but a top priority.

Although he had previously considered letting Zhao Paner and other women participate in helping him manage the business.

But doing big business didn't just rely on one person.

And many things were more suitable for a man to handle.

Zhao Paner and the others could offer advice and innovate in private.

Letting Yan Jun execute it was the best.

Regarding this.

Jia Hui then had a detailed chat with Yan Jun about the business he planned to do.

Everyone supported it after hearing it.

Then their eyes lit up, it was rare!

Li Zhangge's beautiful eyes flickered with strange colors, staring at him secretly: "I didn't expect him to be a business genius! Is there anything in this world that he doesn't know?" Nine.

【289】 Jia Hui watches the women play dominoes, the entertainment of noble ladies

Jia Hui had another secret talk with everyone for about an hour.

Then the meeting was adjourned.

During the period, he also told everyone the news that he had obtained the "Night Revels Picture".

Asking what Master Ke Zheng Zheng meant.

Jia Xu, who understood the human heart best, immediately said: "My lord, this person has already been driven out of office and is about to be far away from the center of politics. It is useless for him to keep the 'Night Revels Picture', so it is better to send it out, which is more valuable!"

Jia Hui nodded.

"And who to send it to is a problem."

"Obviously, it is not advisable to send it to that Chief Secretary Xiao and people in his camp."

"There are not many people left who would dare to take this and risk offending the Emperor and Empress."

Jia Hui asked strangely: "Why not send it to the Qingliu faction?"

In the original drama, Master Ke Zheng Zheng did not send it to other court officials either.

Finally, he was far away from the capital.

After coming to Jin Ling and meeting Brother Ouyang Xu, he handed it back to him, letting him be the second Xiao Qin "707" Yan.

However, this fool Brother Ouyang Xu sent it to the Censor-in-Chief Qi Mu.

Jia Xu smiled: "It should be that he himself also saw the selfishness of these so-called Qingliu, even if it was given to Qi Mu, he himself would not dare to charge into battle personally. Since that is the case, it is useless to give it to them."

Jia Hui suddenly realized.

That was it.

Originally, Qi Mu got the "Night Revels Picture" presented by Brother Ouyang Xu, and he didn't mess around himself either.

Instead, he fooled the fool Brother Ouyang Xu into going to the Emperor himself, and then he quickly lost his life.

"Therefore, this 'Night Revels Picture' is actually a hot potato, not someone with great courage would dare to hold it... Sending it to my lord is probably because he thinks my lord is not afraid of trouble!"

Indeed, he was not afraid of trouble!

Within a week, he had successively toppled two Duke Prefectures, one Marquis, plus one Minister of War, and also imprisoned a Capital Battalion Military Governor!

The entire Great Gan could not find a second person who was more unafraid of trouble than him.

A person with more guts!

Even the Emperor and the Retired Emperor would feel inferior!

Jia Hui grinned.

Not knowing what he was laughing at.

Jia Xu also laughed, then added: "In addition, this former Chief Secretary probably also wants to form a good relationship with my lord to ensure the future of his family. And there might also be the reason of Brother Ouyang Xu."

"It is expected that this will be used as a favor."

"Let my lord release Brother Ouyang Xu, this can also be considered as fulfilling their teacher-student relationship."

"Since that is the case, I understand!"

Jia Hui nodded in understanding.

Jia Hui still held this former Chief Secretary with a strong backbone in high esteem.

Subsequently, regarding how to handle this "Night Revels Picture".

Everyone also reached a consensus!

Subsequently.

After the meeting.

Jia Hui and Li Zhangge went together to find Qin Keqing and the other women.

It was still early.

It was only seven o'clock now.

Go home at five.

Eat at five-thirty.

Finish eating and discuss matters at six, end at seven.

Discuss for eight hours.

Although the ancients went to bed early.

After all, there was no nightlife.

But this was limited to farmers and commoners.

The nightlife of noble families was still quite rich.

Jia Hui's home was brightly lit everywhere.

Arriving at a main hall, not the Qing Hall for entertaining guests.

But another main hall.

Found the women were playing cards.

Qin Keqing, Lady Yan, Diaochan, and Lady You were at one table.

East, West, South, North.

Behind them were Sanniang and other women, as well as maids watching the show.

Hearing Jia Hui's question, Qin Keqing said embarrassedly: "Husband, we are playing dominoes."

Dominoes were a type of game equipment.

Often used for gambling.

Made of wood, bone, or ivory.

Each set had thirty-two pieces, made of bone, ivory, bamboo, or ebony, with dots from two to twelve arranged in different ways carved on them.

Started in the Song Dynasty. Also called ivory tiles.

Some people confuse "dominoes" with "Pai Gow" and "Tian Jiu", in fact, dominoes is the name of the gambling tool, while Pai Gow and Tian Jiu are just the most popular ways to play dominoes, other ways include solitaire, etc.

The women in the original Red Chamber often played dominoes.

Jia Mu loved to play it too.

These were these noble ladies.

One of the few pastimes to pass the time.
