Chapter 1387 The Worrying Ninth Brother (Walling for Monthly Tickets)
Brother Jiu's face fell down with a bang.
Thief Sun, you don’t have a good heart!
Why don't we all have a good uncle?!
I thought that the twelfth brother's uncle was a good person and had done his job honestly over the years, but he ended up waiting here.
The twelfth elder brother was a little at a loss when he saw the ninth elder brother's reaction. He really didn't know what was wrong with him.
Brother Jiu snorted coldly: "I will give you one and a half cents of monthly interest, and they will give you three cents later, and they can still use it as a cover for you. This is within the provisions of the law. It is not considered a usury, but it is a compound interest rate, which is one cent in two years."
Times, if you force people to have their families destroyed, your sins are part of it."
The twelfth elder brother almost recited Amitabha after hearing this.
He grew up listening to cause and effect and did not want to get involved in cause and effect.
After the ninth elder brother said this, he glanced at the twelfth elder brother.
The twelfth elder brother is young and thin-skinned. It is better to take out the more than 40,000 taels of silver. Otherwise, if the incident of Tuoheqi comes out and the money is recovered, they may have to talk to the twelfth elder brother shamelessly.
Brother Jiu coughed slightly and said, "But it's really a waste of your money to just sit there. Leave it here, and I'll leave it at the bank."
The twelfth elder brother did not respond immediately and said: "Ninth brother, do you also want to put money out?"
Isn’t that the same as cause and effect?
He didn't want to get involved, and he wasn't happy for Brother Jiu to get involved either.
Brother Jiu waved his hand and said: "My place is different from other banks. It borrows money directly by pledging money. It mainly deals with officials and merchants. The common people do not lend money without collateral. For example, a shop with a thousand taels is under pressure."
Master, you can borrow 800 taels of silver at 2 cents interest. If you pay it back at maturity, the transaction will be considered completed if the pressure is released. If the money is not paid at the end of the period, then the shop will directly count it as silver. Make up the difference and transfer the account. No one can take advantage.
No one should suffer."
The twelfth elder brother listened and felt that there was nothing wrong with it. He nodded and said, "I will ask someone to bring the banker's ticket to the ninth elder brother."
Brother Jiu said: "Just keep three to five hundred taels with you, and leave the rest with me. I will settle the interest for you on a monthly basis."
Let's occupy it for three to five months first and settle the matter here in Guangshanku.
Brother Twelve shook his head and said, "I don't want interest. If Brother Ninth has to pay it, I won't ask anyone to take it."
It's not enough to take advantage.
I already took advantage of him last time, but that was for unknown reasons.
This time, if you say you are in the forefront, you can no longer take advantage.
Brother Ninth: "..."
All of these people really don’t know how hard life is.
It's so easy to be fooled.
In the study room, only civil and martial arts are taught, but people's livelihood and economics should also be taught.
However, the twelfth elder brother stopped mentioning this and went back to his seat.
Brother Jiu has worked with him for more than a year and knows that this younger brother is obedient most of the time, but when he is stubborn, he is like a donkey and will not change his mind.
He couldn't help grinding his teeth.
You obviously want to help your little brother, but do you want to take advantage?
Who cares about taking advantage?
And those two deed papers...
If this is left in the name of the twelfth elder brother, when the Ministry of Internal Affairs comes back to recover the hidden silver, it will definitely be returned to the Wanliuha family.
Brother Ninth couldn't bear it.
Although the Wanliuha family is not as prominent as the Fourth Concubine's family, they still owe their fortune to the Twelve Princes, mother and son.
Isn't it right to close two of their shops?
The ninth elder brother took the deed, looked at the location, and then said to the twelfth elder brother: "It just so happens that your sister-in-law's restaurant wants to open a branch. These two shops are idle. We will use them first and look for them later.
I’ll almost supply you.”
The twelfth elder brother never paid much attention to these things and said: "Okay, then the ninth elder brother, you can take it and use it."
Brother Jiu then said: "Then tomorrow you ask the people around you to bring the deed of the Shichahai house, and I will ask someone to go to the household department to transfer the title."
The twelfth elder brother looked surprised and did not nod. Instead, he looked at the ninth elder brother and said, "Ninth elder brother, is there anything wrong with this shop?"
The last time he sent the deed, he asked Brother Jiu to send it back, but this time the other party asked for it.
He was also seventeen years old. Brother Ninth didn't hide everything, and said: "There is something wrong. You don't have a house, and you don't have the manpower. This shop is only deeded to you, and it is still managed by the Wanliuha family.
Who knows what to do for a living? If I do something bad under your guise, I will keep it and rent out two shops for you to collect rent, or wait for you Fujin to come in and have a room with you. You can figure out what to do on your own.
"
The twelfth elder brother didn't quite understand why Wan Liuha's people were not well managed, but he also knew that the ninth elder brother was doing it for his own good, so that was fine, so he nodded and listened.
Gao Yanzhong was nearby and quietly gave Brother Jiu a thumbs up. Unexpectedly, Brother Jiu had planned this in advance.
Brother Jiu raised his eyebrows with a bit of pride.
He is just too lazy to use his brain. If you really think about it, he is one of the most intelligent among the princes...
*
When he got home, Brother Ninth mentioned the matter to Shu Shu and said, "This is Brother Twelve's property. It's not easy to put it in your name directly."
Shu Shu thought about it for a while.
It seems like my family is going to suffer.
After Guangshanku's case comes out, he will return to similar properties, but he will still have to bear a bad reputation.
But think about the twelfth elder brother, he is a poor little man who has no relatives to rely on.
If you can help, please help.
As for the reputation of the ninth elder brother, it would be fine as long as Kangxi was aware of it.
Shu Shu remembered a saying, taking advantage is taking advantage.
After all the hard work, they actually took advantage, right?
Let Kangxi see the kindness of the ninth elder brother to his younger brother.
*
The next day, He Yuzhu took the deeds of a house and two shops to the Eight Banners Department of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and transferred all the properties under the name of the twelfth elder brother to the ninth elder brother. He also changed the land deeds and house deeds.
.
Property transfer is not a rare thing.
The Eight Banners Department of the Ministry of Household Affairs was specially established to register, transfer and trade property of banner people.
It's just a direct transfer, not a transaction, and the amount is not indicated, which is strange.
Who is the ninth elder brother?
The God of Wealth who is in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Who is the twelfth elder brother?
He seems to be the little prince born of a concubine.
The key is that the twelfth prince only has these three industries in his name!
The family was divided under the name of the ninth elder brother. It was added in the past few years and filled with several pages.
The ninth elder brother took over the twelfth elder brother’s property!
What is this if not news?
I went through the door in the morning, and in the afternoon, all the six departments and nine officials in the yamen heard about it.
The ninth elder brother "takes advantage of others"!
Especially the people of the Wanliuha tribe, who were unhappy with their little prince, found support.
There has to be an explanation. If the twelfth elder brother appears to be too cowardly, wouldn't anyone be able to bully him in the future?
It’s true that Brother Ninth is favored, but he still has to be reasonable.
No matter how unpopular the twelfth elder brother is, he is still the prince's elder brother.
Tuoheqi had never dealt with Brother Jiu, so he couldn't understand what this was.
To say that the ninth elder brother is greedy for several properties of the twelfth elder brother...
It shouldn't be.
That one house, two shops, and three places combined would cost more than 4,000 taels of silver. How could it be like this?
Tuo Heqi did not dare to make random guesses, so he went to the Yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs again, trying to ask the twelfth elder brother if he had any other inside information, but in the end he came up empty-handed.
The twelfth elder brother was taken to Haidian by the ninth elder brother.
Yesterday the female family members went to see Princess Rongxian, and today it was the prince's turn.
It's not that the princes don't care about brotherhood and are not close to their sisters, but because everyone is walking in the Yamen, and they have to arrange the errands at hand and report to the Yamen before they can come out.
Except for the prince who was not able to leave the palace, all the other adult princes arrived.
Princess Rongxian was relatively familiar with the brothers in front of her, and said to the eldest brother: "It should be time to drink the wedding wine of the eldest brother. I brought some jars of old wine from Bahrain."
The eldest brother immediately became energetic and asked: "How old are you?"
Princess Rongxian smiled and said: "It has been stored for twelve years. I brought it with me when I got married. There are eight altars left. I thought that my eldest brother would have a happy event, so I used it as a congratulatory gift."
The eldest brother said with a "haha" smile: "This is a good gift, and it is exactly what I like. I will tell Khan Ama later that it is best to choose a date earlier so that my sister can catch up with the banquet."
Although Princess Rongxian is not the Princess of Bahrain, she is a married woman with a pair of young children. It is not suitable for her to stay in the capital for a long time. She will end her stay in the capital for two or three months and will leave the capital before the rainy season.
Princess Rongxian said: "That's just right. I will also get close to my nieces."
Both brother and sister made a tacit agreement not to mention Fujin's successor.
When a couple loses their spouse, even if they marry someone else, they will never be able to reconcile themselves to each other.
Princess Rongxian didn't have anything to say to the third elder brother, so she just passed by and said to the fourth elder brother: "When I returned to Beijing the year before last, Qili borrowed money from the Household Branch to buy grain. The total amount was 150,000 taels. This
The next time I came back, I asked my concubine and the prince to bring back the borrowed money. I then sent the chief minister to the Ministry of Household Affairs to pay back the money, and my fourth brother helped me keep an eye on it."
Although she has not entered the imperial court, she has been exposed to it over the years and knows some of the ways of the imperial court.
The Ministry of Finance holds money here, and it is common to eat kana.
The Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of War are responsible for the selection of civil and military officials, and they are also highly profitable yamen.
As for the Ministry of Etiquette where her younger brother, Third Brother, worked before, and the Taichang Temple where he currently works, they are both Qingshui Yamen.
The fourth elder brother listened carefully, nodded and said: "Second sister can ask someone to go to the Ministry of Finance the day after tomorrow, and brother will ask someone to keep an eye on it."
The fifth elder brother said to Princess Rongxian: "Second sister, the interest on the money in the public treasury is low, the monthly interest is only one cent. There is no need to rush to pay it back. It is better to go to other departments to buy sheep and horses to recover as soon as possible..."
Princess Rongxian said: "This is what the eldest princess ordered a long time ago. I was afraid that it would take too long and the next person would be greedy, so I asked her to clear this account early."
The fifth elder brother nodded and said: "That's true, my aunt came back to borrow this money. It would be too shameful to turn around and argue."
Of course, everyone has heard about the public treasury of the Ministry of Household Affairs for a long time.
It's just that they didn't have any place to spend money before they opened the house. After they opened the house, they had the money from the family division. They didn't have any place to spend money for the time being, so they didn't owe any debt.
The fourth elder brother glanced at the ninth elder brother.
Brother Ninth looked around, feeling proud.
If you don't have your own help and let the brothers take advantage of it, how long can the two hundred and thirty thousand taels of silver be spent?
After three or five years, I will have to borrow money from the public treasury to live on.
Princess Rongxian said to the fifth elder brother: "Yesterday, I saw that my siblings were coughing, so I brought back a lot of licorice. You can bring back two bags later."
The fifth elder brother said: "Okay, I also have a itchy throat and eyes. It's dry now."
The seventh elder brother and the eighth elder brother were also younger brothers at that time, and there was an age difference between them and Princess Rongxian.
Princess Rongxian spoke differently to the two of them. She said to the Seventh Prince: "I got some deer antlers last year to replenish liver blood and kidney essence. Ask the imperial doctor how to use them later."
The legitimate daughter of the Seventh Prince suffered from developmental delay caused by insufficient essence and blood.
The seventh elder brother stood up and said, "Thank you, second sister."
Princess Rongxian said: "What are you saying here? As an aunt, shouldn't I miss my niece?"
When they arrived at the eighth prince's place, Princess Rongxian asked about Concubine Hui and said, "How is my concubine? You haven't gone to the palace to pay your respects to your concubine?"
The eighth elder brother said: "My younger brother, Fujin, went ahead to greet my concubine. The farewell to my concubine was fine. It's just that I went to the imperial garden a few days ago and got spring ringworm. I have to avoid eating these days."
After hearing this, Princess Rongxian was a little worried and said: "What did the imperial doctor say? My concubine also suffered from vernal ringworm in the early years, and it was almost cured later. Why did it happen again this year?"
Brother Ba said: "The imperial doctor said there is no serious problem. It was because of the heavy snowfall last year and the luxuriant vegetation this spring. There was also a lot of pollen falling, which is why spring ringworm is easily induced. Just wait until it rains a few times and avoid these days...
