It is said that since Xue Baochi came to Jia Mansion, Lin Daiyu often heard the maids praise how likable Miss Xue was, and she felt a little uncomfortable. So she found her ancestor to learn martial arts and strengthen her body. Although the ancestor was distressed and afraid that she would suffer, he did not want to be compared to his granddaughter by the girl from the Xue family, so he agreed to help find a master to teach her. Finally, after visiting the famous mountain, I found a female Taoist who knew the right conditions and was willing to teach. So the ancestor personally asked people to clean up the house and let the female Taoist settle down next to his residence, so that he could teach and guide Daiyu to learn various martial arts. That treasure and jade also lived in front of the ancestor, so he also had to learn together, and the ancestor asked the female Taoist elder to teach it together. And this matter must not be publicized.
Seeing that Daiyu's body was too weak, the female Taoist leader prescribed medicine for her to take, and then used decoction medicine to let her soak in the bath to change her physique and strengthen the root bone. After about half a year, Daiyu's complexion was praised, and the female Taoist began to teach her basic skills and techniques. After practicing every day, she also helped the female Taoist elder to cook the fields, water and weed, or copy family scriptures, and even carry water for cooking, cleaning up dust, etc. As for Baoyu, in addition to practicing horse steps and lifting stone piers, he also has to do some physical work such as cleaning the courtyard and chopping wood and moving bricks.
As she grew older, the female Taoist elder would tell the two of them interesting customs in society and the warm and cold stories of people outside. The eyes of the two slowly opened, and they gradually learned a broader outside world.
In order to exercise the social adaptability of the two, the female Taoist will let the two take the nectar and rice wine they brewed to the market to sell, and they will be rewarded for selling them at a good price. In fact, Jia's mother gave the female Taoist elder a rich offering, and the female Taoist chief usually does not lack silver, but this kind of rich and noble family does not see the outside livelihood is not easy will breed pride and empty-eyed arrogance and self-righteousness, so it is impossible to adapt to society. If you don't adapt to society, learning skills is meaningless, and it may have the opposite effect. Therefore, let the two have more contact with the real life situation, no longer fragile and sensitive psychologically, will not be often depressed because of small things, and everything can be more open-minded and transparent.
When the two grew up, the female Taoist elder began to teach the two of them qimen gossip, look at the pulse of the diagnosis, and look at the eight characters, and let Daiyu dress as a man and Baoyu to set up a stall in the market to practice. Older, the female Taoist elder took the refined elixir to the two of them to sell at the market. In the end, the female Taoist elder taught the two how to successfully refine pills. And the first priority to gain a foothold in society is to have money. Therefore, the female Taoist elder asked the two to learn to accumulate wealth from the age of ten, and required the two to earn 10,000 taels of silver every year with what they had learned. So the two began to save up monthly money at a young age, and the jewelry, clothing, antiques, calligraphy and paintings they did not want also learned to go to the market for people to evaluate bids and then turn them into silver. Daiyu would let the cook make a few pastries and good dishes every three to five to sell in high-end restaurants, saying that the main family could not finish eating the reward on his birthday, and he couldn't bear to eat it, so he changed it to silver taels for daily use. And Baoyu will let the little ones have nothing to do to make some birdcages and cover them with silk to sell them at high prices. Or let the next people raise some expensive flowers to bring to the market. After getting older, the two dressed up and went to the market to sell calligraphy and paintings, and looked at the pulse or the eight characters. Or take the elixir that you learned to refine from the master to sell. In this way, from 10,000 taels of silver to 100,000 taels of silver every year, they saved up year by year, and by the age of fifteen or sixteen, the two of them had their own seven or eight shops along the street, and they had more than one million taels of silver tickets in their hands. During this period, the two of them also practiced more and more sophisticated, and they often played against each other up and down.
When both of them passed the age of fifteen or sixteen, the female Taoist elder asked the ancestor to consummate the marriage between the two so that they could teach them new exercises. Although the ancestor has always had this idea, it is more natural to look at Mrs. Wang and the Xue family. When she was thinking about what to do, the female Taoist said that she would return to the mountain to wish her master a birthday, and she would bring Baoyu and Daiyu to congratulate her. The ancestors were happy for them to go out for a walk, and when they saw the world, they agreed.
Baoyu Daiyu returned to the mountain gate with the female Taoist leader. The people in the mountain gate are not lively, and they all wish the old Taoist longevity and happiness. In order to celebrate the grandchildren of each disciple need to compete on the same stage, or wen bi, or wubi, the winner will be rewarded. Among the disciples, Daiyu was already involved in a wide range of knowledge, and added female Daoist masters to mention points, so he actually won the first place in Wenbi, and Baoyu also took the second place in Wenbi. And the disciples in Wubi can be doubled, and there are strange moves, but fortunately, Jia Fu has strong financial resources, and Baoyu Daiyu's physique is to let the female Daoist soak in a bath with medicinal soup, special ability to resist, and Qi Men Dun Jia can actually practice, and Baoyu additionally has psychic treasure jade blessing body, so he actually let him stand at the end and take the first place in Wubi, and Daiyu can be worthy of Wubi second. At this time, Baoyu and Daiyu became famous in the sect, and they not only obtained the secret exercises of the main sect, but also obtained the maintenance secret recipe of the old Daoist elder and his own practice heart method and the application skills of Qi Men Dun Jia. This communication is more than the first to accept the inheritance of the main sect, but Baoyu Daiyu is still young, unlike most of the others who are twenty or thirty years old, the two are descendants of the family and lay disciples, so they are not reluctant to force the two, by Wenbi, the third place of Wubi accepted the inheritance of the sect. As a compensation, Baoyu Daiyu was enshrined as a guest elder of the sect and enjoyed the lifelong offerings of the sect. Although it is not much, a few thousand silver taels a month, but it will be delivered to the house on time every month. It's just that if the sect needs it, the two must come back immediately to support and help. Baoyu Daiyu returned to Jia Mansion with the first offering of Elder Hakqing, and the female Taoist elder also returned, and it was still her duty to continue teaching the two professors. After seeing Baoyu Daiyu's identity card of Elder Haqing, the ancestor had more confidence to announce the marriage of the two to the whole of Jia House, and the rest of Jia House had to remain silent and acquiesce to the marriage.
So the ancestor personally arranged the arrangement, selected an auspicious day for Baoyu and Daiyu, and the two completed the marriage in Jia House. The noble concubine Niang Yuanchun learned that she had also sent someone to send a congratulatory gift, which made people completely unobjectionable. And the sect also sent representatives to send congratulatory gifts to congratulate them. When the whole Jia Mansion saw the congratulatory gift from the sect, they did not dare to underestimate the two, and where there was still a mind to oppose, even the mother and son of the Xue family also prepared generous gifts to come to congratulate them, and told Jia Fu that they had found a place to live outside, and moved out with their families on the same day. The uncle of the two Baoyu and Daiyu, Prince Teng, also sent someone to send a congratulatory gift, and the ancestor smiled happily, and Mrs. Wang felt much lighter and more relaxed.
After Baoyu Daiyu finished her marriage, the two went to the palace to meet the concubine. The noble concubine Niangniang was accompanying the palace to receive a group of foreign envoys, and Baoyu Daiyu went with her consent. Among the entertainers of these foreign envoys, there was a military general Nengwen Nengwu who showed off a lot, and the noble concubine Niangniang sent Baoyu Daiyu and the two to communicate with each other in a friendly manner as uncles. Baoyu Daiyu did not have too much politeness, just showed his hands, knew that he had met an expert, and after some discussion, he worshipped the two in order to save face, and others also had to leap to try, Baoyu Daiyu all joined hands to make them worship one by one. After the great joy in the palace, the banquet, and the guests of honor, the palace rewarded the two heavily, Feng Baoyu as the Marquis of Dingxi, Feng Daiyu as a pin, and gave Baoyu a paid idle position in the Ministry of Rites (you can not go to the dynasty if you have nothing to do), and rewarded the two with a lot of gold, silver, jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, etc.
Baoyu Daiyu returned to Jia Mansion and picked some gifts to give to the noble concubine Niangniang and Jia Mu, and Jia pardoned Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Jia Zhengwang and Jia Lian Wang Xifeng and his wife. The rest also gave gifts to the sisters of Jia Fu. Then some ministers of the DPRK asked Baoyu Daiyu one after another to celebrate. Although Daiyu is a female dependent, she is the first Wen Bi of the sect, and she is also the guest elder of the sect, and the two of them are companions when communicating with foreign envoys, so everyone not only treats her as a female dependent, but also treats her with the sect guest elder. However, for convenience, Daiyu used a mask close to her face to put it on, so that everyone would be more comfortable, and it was not excessive manners.
After some excitement, Baoyu Daiyu officially took over the Grand View Garden. Now all the superfluous furnishings in the Grand View Garden, including antiques, calligraphy and paintings, furniture decoration, are put away and put into the warehouse, and the next people and old mothers and children are all going to grow grain and silkworms, raise chickens and fish, weave cloth and embroidery brocade, plant melons and pick vegetables. The maids are responsible for the cleanliness and weeds in the garden. No matter how many guys each person has, at the end of the year, they will only be evaluated according to the number of increases. For the requirements in the kitchen, all subordinates have unified standards, unified times, unified locations, unified colors, unified styles, and unified materials for all clothing. These two pieces alone save a lot of costs and overhead. For housekeepers who have been more than 20 years old, they will be released home to retire, a severance pay will be issued to housekeepers who have been 10 to 20 years, housekeepers within 5 to 10 years will be retained, and housekeepers within 5 years will be re-regulated. For the old mothers of the next people, except for the nanny and the maid, they are retained for the elderly, and the rest who have worked for ten years are not used, and new people are recruited from the outside to use. In this way, the banality of the whole garden is new, and the rules are taken seriously. No demobilized person may be used again. The deposition of many drawbacks is prevented.
In addition, Daoxiang Village Pastry Shop and Daoxiang Village Imitation Restaurant are set up in the Grand View Garden, providing fresh pastries and dishes to noble concubines and concubines on a regular basis. There is also a brocade shop that regularly provides satin and embroidery to noble concubines. A sauce shop has also been set up to provide a variety of sauces for various dishes in Jiafu's daily life, preventing a lot of waste and various consumption caused by one dish and one sauce. The simple version of this sauce will be put into the market for sale, on the one hand, the cost is relatively low, the price is appropriate, suitable for repeated consumption by the general public. This sauce quickly became popular and brought good profits. There is also a spice bun shop, including sachets that you carry with you, sachets that you put in your wardrobe, and spice buns for stews. This is also a consumable that is used more in daily life, so in addition to the internal use of Jiafu, there is also an abbreviated version put on the market, which also brings considerable benefits to the Grand View Garden. One of the benefits that can become the pillar of the Grand View Garden is to raise a large herd of cattle at the foot of the mountain in the Grand View Garden, on the one hand, to provide fresh milk and dairy products, on the other hand to provide fresh beef, and on the other hand, to raise a large number of water chestnuts, water chestnuts and pearl mussels, and other moderate amounts of aquatic products, including fish, shrimp, crabs, lotus roots and lotus seeds, these aquatic products sell well in winter and the price is also very high. For this reason, in addition to growing a large amount of grain, fruits, vegetables and vegetables, Daguan Garden also grows a large number of soybeans for feed. These revenues have brought an annual income of tens of millions of silver taels to Daguan Garden. Half of these proceeds will be saved, and one-tenth will be distributed in the form of red envelopes to the people of Jiafu during the New Year holidays. Two million silver taels are reserved for daily turnover, and two million silver taels are used for new investments, such as buying new shops or fields.
After some new planning and adjustment, the entire Jia province has less expenses, more income, less banality, more fresh and lively atmosphere, more people busy doing things, fewer people idle and calculating, fewer rules, but it is better. The whole of Jia Fu has radiated new vitality and vitality.
Baoyu and Daiyu set up a money house in Jia Mansion, and then lent out the money deposited in Jia House. In order to ensure that Qianzhuang could pay the interest of the people of Jiafu on time, Qianzhuang's money had to be invested in a business that made quick and high returns, so Baoyu and Daiyu opened a jewelry shop and restaurant on the street, and another pawn shop. These three shops have high and stable returns, which can guarantee the deposit interest paid to the people in Jiafu.
At this point, everyone in Jiafu has goals, hopes, and benefits, and people are simpler and more harmonious between people, and the whole Jiafu presents a peaceful and vibrant scene.
