Qin Hanzhen clarified the doubts on the accounts, and began to concentrate on taking care of the house near the Confucius Temple. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The manager in charge of renovating the house reported the details of the accounts, and she was right and right, checked and checked, and made sure that it was correct, and then transferred the follow-up money.

She wasn't worried about buying new furniture. When she was in contact with the sisters, she had heard that one of the sisters had an uncle's family in the wood furniture business, and that the family had a sizable workshop with a reputation for the quality of workmanship. She went to talk to this clan sister, asked the other party's parents to match, and found the other party's uncle's house to buy a batch of furniture. She personally took Uncle Hu to the new house for acceptance, and was very satisfied with the style and quality of this batch of furniture, which can really be regarded as good quality and low price.

In this business, Qin Han really got the benefits, and bought the furniture he wanted quickly and well. And the clan sister's family got paid by the intermediary again, and made a small fortune, which made them more friendly to the sixth room. The clan sister's uncle's family got a big business, and they were naturally very happy.

In this way, everyone was happy, everyone got benefits, and some people in the other houses in the clan also looked at the hot eyes, and suddenly found that Qin Bai, the newly returned golden thigh of the sixth room, was actually not only able to fund the Qin family to build a clan school, guide the children to study, but also give some valuable gifts or rewards to the clansmen who were pleasing to the eye.

This kind of thing, Qin Bai and Qin Jian have to take care of it, and Qin Hanzhen doesn't have to pay attention to it. She did a good job this time, and she was praised by her grandfather and grandmother, and even her cousin Qin Jian praised her for being smart and capable. has a little cousin to compare, he has to put more effort into the house in Huaiqingqiao, and he can't ask Qin Hanzhen to compare.

As for Zhao Mo, she naturally praised her even more so that there was nothing in the sky and no one in the earth, and her face turned red when she said it.

The date of Zhao Mo's departure has been set. At first, he thought of separating from his uncle and grandfather and cousin Qin, and he was still a little reluctant in his heart, but when he thought that he was just going out for a walk, he would definitely come back before the moon, at most, he would leave for a month, and that reluctance turned into expectation, and what he thought about was to buy some gifts for his uncle, grandma and Cousin Qin.

He also thought that Cousin Qin was always talking about traveling around to increase her knowledge, but because she was a daughter's family, she was young and could not be free, so he would go to see the outside world for her. When he returned, he told his cousin what he had seen and heard, as if she had gone out with him.

Since Zhao Mo had this thought, he buried it in his heart as a secret, and was ready to do something on the road, so that he could surprise Qin Hanzhen when he came back.

Qin Hanzhen naturally didn't know what he was thinking, but began to ramble about him going out. Be careful on the road, wear enough clothes, get enough sleep, don't eat food from street stalls, bring enough daily medicines, don't leave your entourage alone to go to strange places, don't follow strangers casually, don't spend money indiscriminately, don't get "bad things" such as drinking and gambling...... In the end, he was reminded to pay attention to the bookkeeping when spending money on the road, so as not to unknowingly spend all the money.

Although the Qin family has people to take care of him all the way, even if Zhao Mo spends all the money, he will not be hungry, homeless, or unable to return to Jiangning. But it's always inconvenient to go out and have no money on you. If he is willing to speak, whether it is Zhou Changnian or He Xin, even if it is Li Zi, he will definitely be willing to lend him some silver, but with his temperament, he probably can't pull this face, right?

When Zhao Mo heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry: "Cousin, I've actually been far away, and I'm not as confused as you think." "I even had to tell him to keep accounts, for fear that he would not know how much silver he had in his pocket to spend.

Qin Hanzhen laughed dryly, and his face was a little sneering: "I just told you in vain, be prepared." Recently, I helped my grandmother to read the accounts, and I really had to reflexively say that I kept the accounts when I saw everything. ”

Zhao Mo didn't understand: "What reflex?"

Qin Hanzhen laughed dryly three times: "It's nothing, it's nothing." Quickly and a little bluntly changed the topic, "By the way, my grandfather and grandmother just received a letter from the capital, talking about our family's industry in Mizhi, and this year's income is estimated to be sent to the capital in person." Fortunately, my father is in the capital and can receive it, and it is estimated that in addition to some necessary expenses, there are also a thousand taels of silver. Originally, my grandmother said that there was no need to send it to the capital, and we would have to return to Mizhi if it was not enough. But Liu Shufang wanted to take the opportunity to go to Beijing to see the world, and specially begged Wang Hanlin's family to bring him with him as a New Year's gift, and his grandmother could only let him go. Speaking of Cousin Zhao, it seems that you also have some industry in your hands, do you want to report the accounts at the end of this year? You are in Jiangning, is it inconvenient for the capital to send you news? Is the silver stored in the capital, or will it be sent to you?"

Zhao Mo glanced at her a few times, smiled slightly, and didn't continue to ask, only replied: "I don't know how much income I have added this year, but if I add the few properties that my father gave me to marry my mother, it should also be a few thousand taels of silver." I don't know what will happen in the future, if I really want to stay in Jiangnan, sooner or later someone will have to send me the silver. What does my cousin have in mind?"

Qin Han really had any ideas? Just persuaded him: "Don't always think about staying in Jiangnan, no matter how good you are here, you don't have many acquaintances." But if it's convenient, it doesn't matter if you send the silver over, you just ask your people to collect some local products, and bring them back to the capital to sell in the future, and you can earn a lot of silver by changing hands. Now that your father is unreliable, it is very important that you have an independent financial source. Although your mother has a lot of dowry business, and your grandfather will also give you things, but your father knows that these are all things that your father knows, and he may have to take it back at any time, and it is difficult for you to refuse. It's better to secretly add some property that your father doesn't know, save some private money, and leave yourself a way back. ”

In this era, when parents are there, children cannot have private property, and once they do, it is a great rebellion and unfilial piety - of course, what do children think in private, that's another matter. Qin Hanzhen had no idea about this, and he didn't feel that it was a big deal for him to instigate Zhao Mo's suggestion to secretly buy private property, but felt that it was necessary for Zhao Mo to do so.

Zhao Mo not only did not refute angrily, but looked at Qin Hanzhen with a bright smile in his eyes, and said, "Don't worry, cousin, I know it in my heart." I've had that idea for a long time. On this trip to the south, I brought a few companions with my mother before her death, just because they are all talents who are good at management. When they arrived at the Jiangnan realm, it was a good opportunity for them to show their talents. I said that I might stay, not because I planned to settle here for a long time, but because I wanted to stay for a while and find a way back for myself. ”

Qin Hanzhen was relieved at this time, but he still instructed: "Then you don't have to stay here for a little longer, just follow us to act." Otherwise, if I leave you alone in Jiangnan, I won't be able to rest assured that my grandfather, grandmother, and brother will go back to Beijing. ”

Zhao Mo smiled slightly, thinking that he also had several attendants around him, where was the person who stayed in Jiangnan? But Qin Han really cared, he was always very useful, just accept it with peace of mind.

Within two days, Zhao Mo set off with Zhou Changnian and He Xin. They planned to go to Shangyuan County first, and then follow the road they had come, and then return to Zhenjiang by boat, first to Changzhou and Suzhou, and then to Songjiang, and then to Hangzhou by land, and then north to Huzhou, along the road of Yixing and Liyang, back to Jiangning. If all goes well, they should be able to return by the eighth day of the lunar month.

Qin Hanzhen accompanied his grandfather, grandmother, and brother Qin Jian to the entrance of Zhuangzi to see him off. Maybe it's because this is just a short trip, at most two months, Zhao Mo will return, and everyone doesn't have much to say. Qin Bai and Niu's instructed them to be careful on the road, and instructed Zhou Changnian and He Xin to take care of Zhao Mo, and then Qin Jian pulled his friend and repeatedly repeated the list of things he wanted Zhao Mo to buy.

Zhao Mo was able to go on this long trip, but Qin Jian could only stay in the clan and study with Qin Bai, not to mention how envious, jealous and hateful he was.

When Zhao Mo and his entourage's carriage walked out of the distance and disappeared from everyone's sight, Qin Jian was still reluctantly looking at the sky in a daze.

Qin Hanzhen pushed him: "Brother Hall, we're going back." It's so windy outside, don't you feel cold?"

Qin Jian let out a long sigh: "The sorrow in my heart, no matter how strong the wind is, it can't be blown away, where can I still think of the cold?"

Qin Hanzhen was amused when he heard it, pursed his lips and endured it for a while, before he said, "Then you continue to blow, I will go back with my grandfather and grandmother first." But don't blow the wind when you blow the wind. When I look back, my eldest aunt and second aunt blame us in the third room, but I won't recognize it. ”

Qin Jian glanced at her speechlessly: "Little girl, whatever artistic conception I met you, it was all in vain." How could a learned and elegant person like the third uncle give birth to such a layman's granddaughter as you?"

Qin Hanzhen smiled and said, "What's wrong with the laity? Most people in the world are laity. Although Brother Lobby thinks he is good, he still doesn't want to live like us laymen? Cousin Zhao just went on a trip and came back in less than two months. You don't play with him every day, why are you reluctant to give up all of a sudden?"

Qin Jian sighed: "Guanglu is going here, it is to travel all over the world, increase knowledge, and also to play, I envy him too late, what is there to give up?"

Qin Hanzhen heard this, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Then what else do you have to worry about?"

Qin Jian glanced at her cousin deeply, and her expression stopped talking.

Qin Hanzhen was too lazy to listen to his appetite: "Love to say it or not, I'm busy." Grandmother has a lot of accounts for me to help with, right, I don't have the time to accompany you in the lobby. ”

She didn't lie about this, she did it beautifully because of the new house, and when the Niu family reached the end of the year, she was impatient to look at the accounts, so she called her granddaughter to be a helper, and she also took the opportunity to teach her the meaning of feeding. Although it was early, her granddaughter was smart, and she was happy. Qin Hanzhen has to be busy with his homework and look at the accounts at the same time, but he is busy.

Qin Jian saw that the little cousin asked straightforwardly, so he could only answer straightforwardly: "The fourth uncle brought the letter before, do you remember what he said in the letter?"
