Chapter 853: Fiscal Crisis

"Is Wei'er's card still there?" Even after being frightened, after finally fooling Zhu Houzhao and Fu Bao away, Su Mo didn't stop looking for Wei'er for a moment, hugged him to the side and asked with a smile.

Wei Er looked at him in surprise, nodded and said, "Yes, yes." As he spoke, he reached out from the collar and pulled the jade plaque out.

Su Mo nodded, and asked again, "Did Wei'er show it to others?" For example, the little brother and little sister I just met today. ”

Wei'er's eyes widened, and he shook his head and said, "No." Didn't Brother Mo say that no one can show it? Why is it okay for the little brother and little sister to do today?"

Su Mo sighed, and hurriedly smiled: "Of course not, this is the secret of Wei'er and Brother Mo, and no one can see it except the two of us." ”

Wei'er immediately nodded heavily, her little face tightened, "Well, this is the secret of Wei'er and Brother Mo, and Wei'er won't show it to others." ”

The villain said very solemnly, tilted his head and thought about it, and added: "If you show it to others, you will punish Wei'er and never see Brother Mo and Sister Xing'er again." ”

When he said this, his eyes suddenly showed a look of horror, he glanced at Su Mo carefully, and whispered, "Brother Mo, isn't it...... Are you going to be gone, and you're leaving Wei'er? I don't want ........"

As he said this, his big eyes suddenly filled with mist, and his two little hands subconsciously grabbed Su Mo's sleeve, his face full of pleading and helpless looks.

Su Mo's heart hurt violently, and his nose was a little sour. How long has it been, and this little man still remembers those past events, which shows how traumatic those memories have caused him. At the same time, he was also amazed at the child's keen intuition, and he could feel the crisis from the moment he suddenly asked about the jade plate. It can be seen that in that immature heart, the sense of insecurity has never really disappeared......

"It's nothing! Brother promised Wei'er, do you remember? Brother said that he would never leave Wei'er, right? Believe my brother, okay?" He gently hugged Wei'er into his arms and whispered in his ear.

The tense body of the little man in his arms slowly relaxed, and Wei'er nodded silently, leaving without the slightest doubt. It's just that the little hand that hugged Su Mo's neck was so hard, it seemed to have exhausted all the strength of his body.

"The little brother and sister who came today are bad people, right? Otherwise, Wei'er won't be able to see Brother Mo again, right?"

After a long time, Wei'er suddenly asked softly in his ear. It's just that question, but Su Mo was so frightened that he almost sat down on the ground.

"No...... No, it's not like that. Uh, Wei'er, don't be cranky...... Well, that little brother and little sister are not bad people, really. It's just that Brother Mo looks at Wei'er and seems to like that little brother very much, and I'm afraid that as soon as you are happy, you will forget the agreement with Brother Mo. Hmm, Brother Mo shouldn't believe Wei'er, it's his brother's fault, isn't it good for my brother to compensate Wei'er?" Su Mo hurriedly made up for it.

Wei'er leaned back slightly, looked at his face seriously, and finally nodded halfway. But suddenly he said: "Brother Mo, otherwise, can you help Wei'er hold this card?" ”

Su Mo was stunned for a moment, and in an instant, he only felt that the softest place in his heart was hit hard. In addition to the pain and soreness, the tears almost couldn't hold back. What an innocent and fiery trust, it comes entirely from an immaculate heart, all pure entrustment. At this moment, Su Mo was really moved.

He gritted his teeth and held back his tears, trying to make a smiling face to shake his head, but suddenly his heart moved, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said: "Okay, Wei'er believes in Brother Mo so much, then Brother Mo will help Wei'er keep it first." When Wei'er grows up, he will return it to Wei'er. Well, my brother promised, just like Wei'er, he would take him with him at all times and not show it to others. In this way, even when the elder brother is not by Wei'er's side, there is Wei'er's card, as if Wei'er is by his brother's side. Hey, by the way, that's ......."

As he spoke, he suddenly had an idea and removed the black tower ring he had been wearing on his hand. Then he first took off Wei'er's jade plate, then tied the ring, and hung it around Wei'er's neck again. And the jade plate found another strong rope to tie it, and then brought it to his neck with great importance.

"Look. He smiled and said to Wei'er: "In this way, Wei'er's card is here with my brother, and my brother's ring is for Wei'er." We carry each other's most important things, so that even if it is like before, when my brother is away from running errands, it is as if we are together. Wei'er said, okay?"

Wei Er's eyes lit up when she heard this, she happily lowered her head and stroked the ring, nodded her little head vigorously, and finally showed a heartfelt smile on her face again. Wrapping his arms around Su Mo's neck, he gave Su Mo a loud kiss, and then giggled and laughed happily.

"Alright, let's go play, little ghost. Su Mo also laughed happily. Seeing Wei'er's smile as bright as the golden sunshine again, his heart was full of a joy called warmth. He only hopes that this feeling of time is, forever!

As for the ring that had been handed down from his ancestors, ha, he had never thought about anything he had to do with those strange organizations. For him, the so-called token has only one meaning, and that is to pay tribute. Just like ordinary people's homes often have old objects that have been passed down from generation to generation, they just carry the remembrance of a family.

Looking at Wei'er's cheerful figure in the distance, listening to his crisp laughter from time to time, Su Mo stood quietly for a long time, his face showing an unprecedented calmness. It wasn't until a long time that he finally turned firm, turned around and strode away.

"Yushan, Yushan!" he shouted back to the front yard.

"It's coming, it's coming. Not far away, Chu Yushan's loud response was heard, and soon, the figure ran over.

"Young Master, are you looking for me?" Chu Yushan was still holding a pen in one hand and an account book in the other, obviously calculating something just now. He was brought over from Wuqing by Su Mo, and because he was literate and literate, he was entrusted with the responsibility of the account office. But all the property transactions and business in and out of Su Mo's name are in his charge.

This is a heavy workload, but Chu Yushan did not complain at all, but was grateful inexplicably, and tried his best to throw down this work, and never made any mistakes. In his words, if the young master can believe in him so much, he will also repay him with death.

I have to say that compared with the ancient people and the modern people of later generations, the simple gratitude is simply far away.

"What's going on with our Xishan Mansion, how long will it take to move over?" Su Mo waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to be polite, and then asked.

Although today's incident was not exposed, it still aroused Su Mo's vigilance. Hurry up and move to the west mountain, where the big-tailed bear and the wolf king can be stocked on the mountain. In this way, even if Zhu Houzhao comes again, he will not rush into the inner house in the back, and naturally avoid the intersection with Wei'er to the greatest extent.

As for whether Zhu Houzhao will go straight to the point like this again, Su Mo has no doubts about this question. Expecting the little prince to be knowledgeable and courteous and not to enter the back house, Su Mo felt that it was easier to hope that the big-tailed bear would not be greedy.

"Back to the young master, it will take some time for the house to be done. It's hard to say the exact time, but I'm afraid it will take another month. However, the clubhouse has been basically completed, and Brother Sihai is asking people to choose an auspicious day for the zodiac, and there will be about three or five more days, and it will be officially opened. Chu Yushan pinned the pen to his ear, flipped through the notebook in his hand and said.

Su Mo frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "Go and tell Lao Sun that the affairs of the club can be put back for the time being, and there is no need to worry." Let him go all out and get the house in Xishan first. I hope to move in within half a month at the latest. Well, if there are not enough people, recruit more people, even if you spend more money, you are not afraid. ”

Chu Yushan sighed, but did not respond immediately, but showed a hesitant look on his face, and seemed to want to speak and stopped.

Su Mo was keenly aware of his abnormality, and raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter?

Chu Yushan hesitated slightly, and finally gritted his teeth and smiled bitterly: "Young master, I'm afraid it's difficult for you to fulfill this request." Because, we have no money, whether it is to hire more people or buy materials to build houses, we can only take our time and wait for the monthly surplus of several industries to come down. ”

What? No money?!

Su Mo was immediately a little dumbfounded, he never thought that Chu Yushan would give him such an answer. It is said that since the time he first came, he has been tortured by abject poverty for a period of time, to be honest, Su Mo really hasn't cared about money anymore.

The monthly turnover of 1,000 taels is not comparable to those big rich people, but in this era, the purchasing power is still very considerable. You must know that at this time, the Ming Dynasty is still relatively clear, and with the name of a prosperous world, although there are natural disasters and man-made disasters from time to time, but on the whole, it is far from being as embarrassing as it was decades later.

At this time, a family of three can live comfortably for a year with ten taels of silver. Then the silver money of 1,000 taels per month is definitely more than the upper than the bottom. Moreover, this surplus is still very generous.

But why did he suddenly run out of money? Su Mo was a little confused.

“…… This time, the whole family went to Beijing, although the journey was close, but there was a lot of money along the way. And the young master was rumored to be missing before, and it took a lot of money to look for people everywhere to find out the news...... When the young master came back, for the sake of Ling Yue and Mr. Tang's affairs, it was another expense to go up and down.......

Also, the young master bought two properties one after another, and all the purchases, personnel placements, and property purchases were even more ......

........ ago, there was also a gift money for the young master to send to Cheng's mansion, and the last bit of savings was almost used up.

Nowadays, several industries are located, and they have long been unable to make ends meet, and most of the various expenditures are temporarily supported by the daily balance of Sihailou.

In this way, even the young master is about to go to the Wang family to propose a dowry, and he has to support it left and right. So, young master, you asked Xishan to speed up the progress, this matter...... Alas, the subordinates are incompetent, and they ask the young master to punish them. ”

Chu Yushan snapped his fingers, and said it, and finally his face was full of shame, and he was about to kneel down and ask for guilt.

Su Mo was dumbfounded when he heard this, it turned out that he was unconsciously poor to this point. What is this called, isn't it just a return to the pre-liberation period? But who can blame this, hurry up to Chu Yushan to stop him, appease him with good words, and send him out.

When I returned to the house and sat down, I sat in the chair for a long time, and suddenly let out a long sigh: "Lao Tzu is so poor, ahhh.......h
