This time Jia Lian accompanied Daiyu home, just in time for Jia Fu to build the Grand View Garden. Jia Lian once said, "It would be nice to send two or three million pieces of silver." At one time, people suspected that the two million pieces of silver were Lin Ruhai's legacy to Daiyu.
But after careful calculation, will Lin Ruhai have this million-dollar legacy? Besides, if he has money, can his money be left to Daiyu, the daughter? What is the truth?
First, according to Lin Ruhai's salary, we can analyze the background of the Lins, the father of Lin Ruhai. He once attacked the following Hou and went to the sea for five generations. Jia Fu's title has only been handed down for three generations, but Lin's title has been handed down for four generations, which is the evidence that Lin's rise is ahead of Jia Fu's. The Lins have been scholarly families for generations. Although there is not much money, there are many intangible assets, including books and collections.
Now in Lin Ruhai's generation, he was born through the imperial examination. His position is unusual, because he is both a noble family and a poet, so that the children of the family are very powerful. Because of this, Lin Ruhai changed from a doctor in Lantai Temple to a salt inspector in Yangzhou in just a few years.
This position should be not only talented, but also considerate between officialdom and shopping malls, and it must also be the confidant of the emperor. There will definitely be a lot of gray income in this position.
There is an example of expenses, and my brother has already indicated it in his brother-in-law's letter, so I don't have to worry about it. Such as the sea, and then some gifts and farewells.
Let's look at Lin Ruhai's handling of seeking an official position for Jia Yucun. We can talk to Jia Yucun or praise Jia Zheng. All this boils down to one thing. We can know that Lin Ruhai is not the kind of official who only knows how to study hard. Lin Ruhai knows the way of the world of officialdom and can play well.
According to official records, the salary of Lin Ruhai salt inspector is one hundred and seventy-two taels of silver a year, plus 1200 taels of silver. The total amount of money is really small, but there will be a lot of gray income in Lin Ruhai. The money is a tacit approval that he can enrich himself and turn it over to the state treasury, so Lin Ruhai must have a lot of money. It is also possible to stay in a million-dollar legacy.
Second, Lin Ruhai's money can be left to Daiyu, because Jia Jia asked Jia Lian to send Daiyu home to deal with this matter. Lin Ruhai has no sons. According to the old saying that only sons can inherit the family business, it will take a lot of effort for Lin Ruhai to leave the money directly to Daiyu.
Fortunately, the Lins' support is not prosperous, and their children and grandchildren are limited. Although there are several families, they are just cousins like the sea, and they are not very close to small groups.
This means that there are not many relatives of the Lins, and there are not many people who can share the property when Lin Ruhai is seriously ill. It is easier for Lin Ruhai to leave the money to Daiyu. Jia he has already discussed it. In order to let Daiyu handle the aftermath and inherit the family business smoothly, Jia asked Jia Lian to send Daiyu home.
Jia Lian handled many things outside Jia's house and asked him and Daiyu to go home to deal with it. Jia Lian represents Guo Rongfu, and even if others in the Lins want to bully Daiyu, they can't take advantage of it.
Jia Lian said that this "wealth of two or three million taels" is likely to belong to the Lins, because the Jia family has not invested in industry, and the money is easy and reasonable, so the Lins' property is very likely.
Third, Daiyu is the only daughter of Lin Ruhai. He must think for her that Daiyu is the only daughter of Lin Ruhai and Jia Min in the future, and both of them regard it as a treasure. Otherwise, he would not discuss with Jia before he died and let him take care of Daiyu himself. This is the best way for Jia Min to sympathize with Daiyu. Secondly, the most reassuring person is Jia. When he died, he would naturally entrust Daiyu to Jia's care.
Jia Min and Lin Ruhai both know that everyone is "a pair of rich eyes and a strong heart". If Daiyu doesn't have money, she will be bullied in Jia's house, and she will need her own dowry to get married in the future, so that she won't be looked down upon by her husband's family. If she wants these things, Lin Ruhai will definitely leave enough money for Daiyu, which will definitely guarantee her future life.
Daiyu has no money in Jia's family, but the money must be kept by Jia's mother, and can only be managed by Daiyu when she grows up. But Jia may have used Daiyu's money in advance for the sake of Jia's family, otherwise Daiyu would not have such a sigh.
