Chapter 100: The County Lord's Mansion
[Ran^Text^Library] To the north of the capital is the imperial palace, and to the east is where the nobles and ministers gathered.
Qingshui Street, however, is a special column between mansions.
Just like its name, this curved street sandwiched between the back garden of the original Wu Wangfu and the back garden of the Changning Marquis Mansion is a courtyard with four three-entry and one four-entrance.
The original people who lived here were the chief strategists and others of the Changshi of the Wu Palace, and during the rebellion of the three kings, they were destroyed with the king of Wu.
And what Chu Yu rewarded to the Lord of Rongning was located in the middle.
The smallest one is a small courtyard.
Combined, it's only twenty rooms.
Gu Xinyue got out of the car, looked at the majestic but extremely discordant plaque of the county lord's mansion on the low door, and sighed silently.
Her emperor's uncle, really, is very unkind to see her.
This county lord's mansion......
It's no wonder that Old Taijun Gu dared to enter the palace to sue the black.
"How are you going to live?" Pointing to the courtyard where she could see the bottom at a glance, Gu Xinyue turned around and asked Cai Wei.
"Girl, go and see first." He Niu smiled, took a step forward, and stretched out his hand to signal Gu Xinyue to enter.
Gu Xinyue stepped into the threshold and walked in with He Niu.
The first entrance is the main hall, two halls with four hugging buildings, the second into the main courtyard, three large main rooms with four wing rooms and two ear rooms, and the third into the inverted seat room with three hugging buildings.
It's so simple and straightforward, not even a garden.
Gu Xinyue stood under the arcade and looked around, and said, "Are you going to open up the shop?" ”
He Niu smiled, opened a door in the verandah next to the arcade, and said, "Girl, this way." ”
Gu Xinyue was stunned for a moment, and followed He Niu into the door.
Behind the door, there is a huge jade screen, and when you turn the screen, there is a small garden, and at the end of the garden, there is a hanging flower door.
Gu Xinyue's eyelids jumped unconsciously, and she followed He Niu to the hanging flower gate, and as soon as she passed the hanging flower gate, she couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Behind the hanging flower door, is a wide and atmospheric large courtyard, the north and south transparent five large main rooms with two warm pavilions, all are carved beams and painted buildings, a row of wing rooms on both sides of the verandah through the mountain, with the deer top ear room behind, there are seven rooms behind the hugging building inverted seat, there are moon gates leading to the side courtyard on both sides of the verandah, the moon gate next to the main house, you can see the embroidery floor behind.
Now there is no need for He Niu to take it, Gu Xinyue stepped inside.
Passing through the hall, bypassing the two-storey embroidery building, it is a garden that is not too large, it is indeed exquisite and elegant, and there are several bamboo houses surrounded by green bamboo in the garden, and there is a small lake in the middle.
At the other end of the garden, there are also three courtyards with side courtyards.
"What is this?" Gu Xinyue was so surprised that she couldn't speak.
"The four courtyards next to this were bought by the boss when the official sale was made, and later he bought the small garden in the backyard of King Wu's mansion, and it became such a piece." He Niu brought a proud way.
A three-entry courtyard is not big, but four three-entry courtyards and a four-entry courtyard, plus the backyard garden of the Wu Wangfu, the area of this piece is comparable to the Changning Marquis Mansion next to it.
It's just that because the time is too tight, there are still a large number of places that have not been completely cleaned up, and when they are completely done, this county lord's mansion will not be worse than any county lord's mansion.
"Qin Qi bought it?" Gu Xinyue muttered.
Yes, when Qin Qi took out the things he had obtained from the house and sold them, he once said that he used up the money from the sale, but because those things were not hers in the first place, she didn't ask where the money went.
It turns out that it was spent here?
"Girl, there is a lot of time in the house, let's go and rest first." Cai Wei said with a smile.
"You know that, too?" Seeing that Cai Wei didn't have any surprise on her face, Gu Xinyue pouted as she walked back with her.
"I don't know it's like this, it's just that Lord Qin said that he could come to the capital in advance, and he also said that if He Niu brought all the people here, it must be able to live." Cai Wei pursed her lips and smiled.
In the end, it is a place where five yards and a divided back garden are combined, the time is compact, and the newly renovated one is only the largest main courtyard, but fortunately, the houses in the front yard are sealed after the house is raided, and it can be cleaned up, and people can live in it.
Gu Xinyue and a few people lived in the main courtyard, He Niu brought his guards to live in the county lord's mansion in front, and Qinglianzi lived in the side courtyard.
At this point, it seemed that the main courtyard was empty.
After cleaning up and letting Gu Xinyue rest, Cai Wei took Ji Jing, who had just come to the door, out to buy people.
When Gu Xinyue woke up in the evening, there were already several more mothers-in-law and two little girls about ten years old in the yard.
Ji Jing, on the other hand, sat in the study converted from a wing room, waiting for her while reading.
Despite the tight schedule, the study was elegantly furnished and comfortable, with everything it should have, and the shelves were full of books.
The figure of the man sitting in front of the window reading a book made Gu Xinyue's eyes suddenly feel a little abrupt, as if she was still in Gu Mansion, she woke up from her sleep and saw the young man.
Gu Mohan, since he left that day, there has been no letter.
Seeing Gu Xinyue come in, Ji Jing got up and gave a salute and said, "Is the girl still adaptable?" ”
Gu Xinyue shook her head, woke up from that moment of scarcity, sat on the soft couch, motioned for Ji Jing to sit down too, and said, "Very good, Mr. Ji bothered." ”
Ji Jing smiled faintly, sat back on the chair and said: "Ji Jing doesn't dare to take credit, this piece was bought by Qin Qi with great effort, and it is also the person he is looking for, and Ji Jing is just helping to supervise the work." ”
Qin Qi ......
Qin Qi was also gone, and he didn't even have a message.
opened her mouth for a moment, Gu Xinyue pressed back the question, if they wanted her to know, they would naturally tell her, if they didn't want to, she asked, it would be bad.
Ji Jing's eyes flashed, he bowed his head secretly, and said with a chuckle: "Girl, the goods brought back this time, except for the goods that are kept for our own shop to sell, the rest are sold for a total of 81,000 taels, and the shop left 10,000 taels for activities, and 20,000 taels I want someone to go to Jiangnan to buy goods, which is 50,000 taels." ”
As he spoke, he pulled out a stack of silver tickets from his sleeve.
50,000 taels ......
A few days ago, He Niu handed over 20,000 taels on behalf of the oil shop in Beijing, and said that because most of the large households were settled at the end of the year, there were more than 40,000 taels of silver to be collected in December.
This year, after removing the money from the money to buy a village and a shop, the cash left in his hand was more than 100,000 taels.
With a slight frown, Gu Xinyue said, "Do you know how much Gu Mansion has earned this year?" ”
She has to support 300 people in this mansion, and she needs at least more than 1,000 taels of silver a month, and in addition to the fact that there are more people than hers in the Dingguo Mansion, there are dozens of masters, so the expenses must be very huge.
Ji Jing's eyes deepened, and he smiled lightly: "Dingguo Mansion, this year's Yulu is 6,000 taels, if the official village is collected by the grandfather of the country in the past, he can get back 10,000 taels, but this year it is Gu Hejing to collect, I don't know how much he can come back, and the Gongzhong Zhuangzi of the Guogong Mansion only has an income of 5,000 taels a year." ”
Seeing Gu Xinyue's eyebrows raised, Ji Jing continued: "This year, in addition to some famous paintings bought by Gu Erye, Gu Mansion also purchased a Zhuangzi of two hundred acres and a Zhuangzi of three hundred acres, which were recorded in the names of Gu Dalang and Gu Siniang, and the cost of buying Zhuangzi was only five thousand taels. As far as I know, the Gu Mansion has already owed a month's monthly allowance to the people in the mansion, and the winter clothes have not been issued. ”
Gu Xinyue's eyes drooped slightly, and she let out a cold snort.
More than 30,000 taels, has this been squandered?
