......

Lao Mao sighed, then turned around and left to pass the word.

Silver Hook looked at the direction and decided to go back to the study first to read the family letters, and then go to the front yard to count the silver.

Her real name is Shui Yunyue, which is similar to Pei Hao's name. will come to the Jin Kingdom, but only because he is old will he be sent out by his family to experience it. At that time, because she couldn't find Pei Liqing's details in a short period of time, she was in a hurry, so she said to Aunt Gui, "If I can't find it again, I will personally enter Pei's mansion as a maid and find out some clues".

As a result, she really entered Pei's Mansion and became Pei Hao's maid.

As soon as she thought of her, she felt a sudden warm current in her heart.

Although Pei Hao has a similar name to her. But the two of them are very different people.

Pei Hao was born in a family of eunuchs in the Jin Kingdom, and was spoiled by his father Pei Liqing since he was a child, so he is almost sixteen years old, and he is still ignorant of the world like a child, and he is terrifyingly innocent and pure. If there was no such thing as hurting her leg, maybe she would be as pure as before when she entered the palace.

But she was different.

Silverhook sighed.

The Shuiyun clan is a well-known merchant clan in Linguo. Because of the atmosphere of Linguo, the women of the Shuiyun clan are not afraid to show their heads, and they do not need to deliberately learn cumbersome female embroidery. They were born with silver, and what they were best at was how to make one bowl of silver give birth to another.

As naïve as Pei Hao?

How can it be!

Silverhook shook his head.

Like her, if she is placed in the Shuiyun clan, her name will be crossed out from the family tree.

But if you can't, it doesn't mean you don't yearn for it. It is this yearning that she will gradually fall in love with Pei Hao, who is as clean as a blank piece of paper.

Wait for the reaction......

Never mind.

Silver Hook let out a long sigh.

She walked into the study, opened the family letter on the boxwood table, and read it in ten lines.

As usual, after greeting her, her mother asked about her marriage to the little boy next to the Pei family.

But how could she tell her mother that the Pei family did not have the little son who was happy with her, but Pei Hao, who didn't know her mind.

If you tell your family about this, I'm afraid that you will be called back by your mother's flying pigeon and break a leg, right?

Silverhook put the family books back in the envelope, put them in a wooden box on the shelf, and turned to leave the study.

She came to the front yard.

Aunt Gui had already learned the news of her return from Lao Mao, and was waiting in the front yard at the moment.

"Less in charge. ”

She walked up and led the silver hook to the nearby account room as she spoke.

"The family's money arrived on March 13, and I counted it, and there was no problem. The young owner will open it again when it arrives and take a look, if it is no problem, I will let people divide it and settle the account. ”

Silverhook nodded.

"How many of them are left that haven't cleared their accounts?"

"The rice account of the Zhou family in Xicheng and the salt account of the Li family in Nancheng have not been cleared, and the rest will be cleared before March. The young owner hasn't come for a month and a half, do you want to read the account book and go back?"

Silverhook shook his head.

"Pei Mansion has been a little busy recently, and Miss Pei has just found it, so I can't leave easily. When it was time to be clear, I looked at a piece of March and a half and early April. By the way, it's not easy to leave in the first year of junior high school, I plan to take a leave of absence in the third year of junior high school and come back to pay homage, you talk to the big guy. ”

When Aunt Gui heard her say this, she frowned.

"Young owner, if you want me to say that you are not a serious maid of the Pei family. These servants don't have to be so attentive, in the past, when you were in our own house, these chores were not your words. ”

Silver Hook nodded, but didn't take the words to heart.

Her family didn't know how important Pei Hao was to her. With her current situation, if she was not there for a day, she would be able to make up for her being in the same group as the Zhou family, and immediately draw her out of her side.

Thinking of the mother and daughter, her eyes couldn't help but be a little gloomy.

"How much does the Xicheng Zhou family owe for rice?"

She asked Aunt Gui.

Aunt Gui recalled for a moment: "About 30,000 taels." We married them once in the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, and we haven't married them since. ”

Silverhook was quiet.

The two of them walked into the account room, and someone handed over the account book.

Aunt Gui took the account book and led the silver hook towards the warehouse in the front yard.

"This time, there are a total of 150,000 taels, and after clearing the accounts of the two families, we still have less than 100,000 taels left. Coupled with the profit of the store and the 100,000 taels, it should be able to be used for about half a year. ”

"It's not a way to lose money every year. ”

Silver Hook sighed.

Aunt Gui squinted and smiled.

"Don't worry about the young owner. We didn't come to Jin Kingdom this time to make money, but mainly to do things for the nobles. ”

The silver hook waved his hand.

"But it's not a way to go down to hundreds of thousands of taels every year. In addition to me, the Shui Yun clan is still away from the country, and the two of us have to pay nearly one million taels from our family every year. Aunt Gui, don't blame me for being straightforward, the nobles in the palace don't know what a big expense this is, don't you know?"

Hearing this, Aunt Gui shook her head and sighed.

"It's not impossible, it's not. Thanks to the help of noble people, we can dominate the Linguo family. If you change someone else and want to come up with so much money, you can't do it!"

Silver Hook took the account book from Aunt Gui's hand and looked at it a few times.

"No, at all. She closed the account book with some frustration: "After we settle the accounts of the Zhou family this year, we will not buy food from their family anymore." His family's rice is expensive, and the Wang family in Xicheng will enter their second-class rice. Then the first-class rice was asked to go to the county seat around Anjing and collect it directly from the farmers. Collect a little, don't be too public, the rice and grain of the Jin Kingdom are strictly controlled. In addition, those farmers who collect vegetables in our family should ask if their family has farming, and if so, exchange the third-class rice of the Wang family for their first-class rice, and make up some silver. ”

Silver Hook said, returned the account book to Aunt Gui, took the abacus from the account room behind him, and his fingers flicked the beads like flying.

"If you calculate it this way, it should cost eighty or ninety thousand taels a year. But compared with the Zhou family's 30,000 taels a quarter, they should be able to save at least 20,000 taels of silver in rice and grain every year. ”

Aunt Gui exclaimed in surprise.

"That's a lot of money!"

Silver Hook nodded, and handed the abacus back to the bookkeeper: "Go down like this first, and do it for three months." If it is feasible, let people send a message to leave the country, and let Ru'er do the same. ”

Aunt Gui took the abacus, and while meditating, she dialed the beads again according to the idea of the silver hook just now.

"It should be doable. She calculated: "In this way, it is better to do the method of the young owner." The rice grain of the Zhou family is really expensive, probably because they think that the eldest lady of their family married Xiangguo, and also played the name of Xiangguo's women's rice. There are quite a few people who buy it, I don't know what to do!"

Silver Hook shook his head and smiled.

"The Jin Kingdom is like this. Women live to have children, and those people probably think that they are nothing without men. ”
