Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

Chapter 408: I don’t have money, but I have furniture!

"Jia Lian, go and deal with it, make them disperse!" Jia She was most adept at giving orders to his son.

Jia Lian shuddered and asked subconsciously, "What should I say?"

Empty hands, talking with mouth?

Sure enough, Jia She immediately glared and said, "Why are you talking to them with your mouth? Just tell them to come back tomorrow."

"We'll divide it up tomorrow, and then come over to settle their bill."

Jia She’s thoughts are simple and clear. I will run away tonight and love whoever I want tomorrow.

Jia Lian didn't dare to repay the debt with nothing.

They must be scolded to death, these people came here because they believed it.

There's no need for anyone to report this, these people have sharp eyes.

They are all in collusion with the mansion, maybe they are in contact with some courtyard?

Jia Lian called out to Grandmother Jia loudly, "Grandma..."

No one else wanted to speak out, Jia Lian kept calling her Grandmother.

Lin Daiyu was a little angry.

Although it is said that married women should not meddle in their parents' affairs, this is too much.

The old lady was so tired that she fell asleep while sitting.

These people were not afraid that the old lady would die suddenly.

She had to speak.

"Can I say something?"

Hearing this, everyone was surprised at first.

Logically speaking, it’s not her turn to speak here, but... the Lin family?

It’s really your turn!

Before anyone else could say anything, Jia She was the first to agree.

"If you say yes, you can go out with Jia Lian, in the name of the Lin family."

"The Lin family is now a new elite, and they dare not offend them."

"Just tell them to give them a few more days. With the Lin family as guarantor, they will be indispensable."

"They don't trust the Jia family, so how dare they distrust the Lin family?"

After saying this, everyone else looked at Lin Daiyu with joy on their faces.

This is a solution, but it is a very damaging one.

Especially Xue Baochai, who seemed to be smiling but not laughing. She has always been a smart person, so why did she get involved in such muddy water at this time?

Lin Daiyu's eyes flashed, and she spoke mockingly.

"Uncle, do you think I'm stupid because I'm young?"

Jia She's happy expression disappeared.

"Then what did you say? What's the point of talking if you don't solve the problem?"

"Who said I don't solve the problem?" Lin Daiyu asked back.

“I speak to solve problems.”

The others turned to look at her in surprise.

"How to solve it?" Jia Zheng asked in a hoarse voice.

A little exhausted.

Although it was a bit embarrassing to ask a child, he didn't bother asking! But the situation was different now...

"Second uncle, since you owe me money, of course you have to pay it back."

"I...of course we know it's about paying back the money, so stop talking nonsense and get to the point!"

Jia She's cane knocked twice on the floor.

Where does such long-windedness come from?

Lin Daiyu, on the contrary, was not in a hurry at this time. She saw that Jia She was a coward.

This is a rush to pass on the blame.

We have tried every possible means!

Even when the situation is urgent, he is not as anxious as before!

"I don't have money, but I have things! This nanmu armchair, this rosewood reclining chair, this red sandalwood carved dining table, ..."

"They are all worth a lot of silver."

"This furniture hasn't been divided yet, has it?"

"There are still people..."

"How many maids are there?"

"How many wives?"

"You can't just divide up my grandmother's dowry."

……

Lin Daiyu looks like a pawnbroker.

Pointing at things up and down.

Jia She was stunned.

It’s not that he doesn’t want these things, the key is that they have to be divided like this, and when will they be divided?

The furniture and furnishings have been divided, so should the pots, pans, and utensils be divided?

These three days can’t be divided!

Then will my escape plan still work?

Jia Lian was also somewhat helpless.

"Cousin Lin, what you said is not feasible. How can the people outside wait that long?"

"Brother Lian, please find a way!"

"Find a pawnbroker to come and appraise the price, and then do the deal on the spot."

"Now that the transaction is over, can't we just pay the debt?"

After saying this, Lin Daiyu curled up her lips into a cold smile.

Then sat down.

I have already put forward the idea, now it depends on what you think.

After dividing up Lady Jia's dowry, they still want to act like a Duke's mansion. It's a bit unreasonable.

Of course, if you see something you like, you can also use your own money to buy it.

Come to think of it, not all the people here are poor.

At the very least, Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng had some family assets.

It depends on whether these people leak it or not.

They all hold on to their own purses, so they feel comfortable taking advantage of the situation.

Lin Daiyu sat down, and everyone else became nervous.

These are all good things, accumulated over several lifetimes.

Those who owe money outside are all peasants and have no use for such good things.

Pawn shop, definitely a discount!

If you buy it yourself, you will lose money!

This is really a dilemma!

Some people were in a state of hesitation.

"No!" Jia Zheng refused immediately.

"If it's torn to pieces like this, there won't even be a place for people to meet in the future."

Lin Daiyu couldn't help but sneer.

"In the future, can you go out now?"

"Do you still care about the future?"

"When it comes to debt collection, there will definitely be a blockade and more and more people will gather."

"If they don't give me any specific details and don't show me some real money, how can they leave?"

Lin Daiyu's words were merciless and did not sound like something a little girl would say. She was worldly-wise and experienced.

How does Jia Min teach her children?

……

At this time, someone else ran in from outside.

"Madam, Master, how is the discussion going?"

"The main gate and the second gate are full of people."

"The money for food, meat, cloth, furniture, and the labor for the construction work in the mansion..."

"Various, ..."

This servant boy often followed Jia Lian and was a good talker. He was afraid that the masters and ladies inside did not have a sense of urgency, so he talked a lot.

The ladies and masters inside were so shocked that their faces turned pale.

It's such a disgrace to our ancestors!

How to do?

Everyone was murmuring in their hearts.

Mrs. Wang's eyes flickered, and she winked at Aunt Xue.

Aunt Xue frowned when she saw this and asked Xue Baochai in a low voice,

"My son, what do you think?"

"Let's buy some of it."

"Some of them will be useful to you in your future life."

Aunt Xue understood what Lady Wang meant, which was to let her redeem the child in the name of the Xue family.

So that she could hide her dowry.

Xue Baochai's eyes flickered. If these things were purchased elsewhere, they might not be available.

But it is not appropriate for me to buy it now, and it is not appropriate to reveal it at this time.

And this marriage? ...

Thinking of this, she whispered to her mother,

Aunt Xue's eyes became clearer as she listened.

This is fine, let’s do business in a fair and impartial manner!

After figuring this out, Aunt Xue stood up, coughed twice, and then said very embarrassedly but very kindly,

"Master, brother-in-law, how do you think about this? My Xue family has a pawnbroker, I can call two people to appraise the things in the mansion."

"If you think it's appropriate, I'll be the middleman. I'll put the things in the pawnshop, and the money will be temporarily lent to our mansion by the Xue family pawnshop."

"When the palace recovers, we can redeem it."

"I won't earn a single cent of our brokerage fee. Do you think this is feasible?"

"I did this to prevent the things from being lost. Such good things should be kept for our own descendants."

"What do you think?"
