039 Silver

Zhong actually still cares about his only sister very much, on the tenth day, it was a full 100,000 taels of silver sent into Chunhui Pavilion, the silver was sent by Shu Di himself, Ming Yan cleverly handed over the box in his arms to Miao's mother, "Here is 100,000 taels, and the account books of Zhuangzi in various shops in the past 12 years are also in it, please check the eldest girl."

Shu Moci motioned to Miao's mother to accept it, Miao's mother kept wiping her tears while holding the heavy wooden box, the motherless child is too bitter, even if the Hou Ye is pampered and protected, who understands the hardships suffered in the dark?

No one in the room spoke, only Miao's mother's slight panting sound sounded from time to time, the atmosphere was embarrassing and heavy, and after a while, Shu Di covered his lips and coughed, "You're okay, I'll go first."

"Guilty," Shu Moci's voice sounded, "Father, such a large sum of money will be a disaster sooner or later."

Shu Di has always been not concerned about money, otherwise he would not have been afraid that Yu Lerong's dowry would be in his own hands, and he was not worried about the old lady, so he handed it over to the Zhong family, and was stunned when he heard this, "What should I do?" ”

"Mo Ci has thought of a way in the past few days, but he still needs his father's help, so please ask my father to retreat."

After only the father and daughter were left in the house, the atmosphere became more and more awkward, especially Shu Di, whose body was as tense as a full bow, Shu Moci almost suspected that as long as her words were wrong, her father would run away.

"Does my father know about Yuqian Hutong?"

Shu Di nodded, Yuqian Hutong is a shop alley in Beicheng, because the terrain is not good, and the business is very deserted.

"This money is too unsafe in my hands, and it is useless, I want to use it to buy shops and real estate, I have inquired about many places, I think the land near Yuqian Hutong and Xishan is good, I don't know if my father can come forward to help me buy it."

Although Shu Di didn't know about general affairs, he still knew the basic things, and shook his head and said, "The business in Yuqian Hutong is deserted, and the grass and trees near Xishan are difficult to grow for various reasons, so it is useless to buy it."

In his previous life, Cheng Zhengze put on a proud posture, refused to accept the gift of the Marquis of Wenchang, and borrowed money from his colleagues to buy a house in Yuqian Hutong.

Later, a mineral merchant inadvertently discovered that the land price was speculated to a thousand gold, and even the royal family had carved out a large piece of land in Xishan to build a cold palace, of course, these Shu Mo words would not be said directly, only said, "Just because these two places are not good, no one will covet them, and my father will buy it with the 200,000 taels."

Shu Di felt a pain in his heart, nodded his head and looked away, Shu Moci prepared a large set of rhetoric, he didn't want to pass the test so easily, he was stunned before he spoke again, "I also have to bother my father to help me find the loyal housekeeper left by my mother."

The previous things should be done, and Shu Di would not object to such a thing, nodding his head, Shu Moci saw that he was so happy, and tentatively spoke, "Father, there have been many disasters and small disasters around Mo Ci recently, Mo Ci wants to take Xiaoba to the Buddha in the temple to pray for peace, but my mother is grounded now, and my grandmother is-"

Entering the incense to worship the Buddha, a girl like Shu Moci who has not left the pavilion must be accompanied by her elders, and neither the old lady nor the Zhong family can accompany her, and the Yang family will not disobey the old lady for her, she can only ask Shu Di.

Shu Di also figured out the joints, and his eyes darkened, "I take a break every Saturday, and I will send you over on the sixteenth, just to rush back on the same day."

Shu Di is a man, even if he sends his daughter to the temple to incense, it is impossible to stay overnight, the temple is built in the middle of the Lishan Mountain, but it is a little rushed to go back and forth that day, Shu Mo hurriedly said, "Then it is better to go to the White Horse Temple outside the city, the Buddha is merciful, where the Buddha is the same."

Shu Di nodded, Shu Mo was used to Shu Di's indifference to himself, and it was difficult to adapt, seeing Shu Di obeying himself in everything, he felt more and more unreal, staring at Shu Di speechless, Shu Di was even more unnatural, and stood up in embarrassment, "I'll go first, if I have something to do, let Mother Xin go to the outer courtyard to find Mingyan."

Shu Mo stood up and saluted, "Congratulations to my father."

On the fifth day, Lin Shan came to Chunhui Pavilion to ask to see Shu Moci, Shu Moci met in the hug summer in front of Luochuan Building, and he was deeply blessed as soon as he met, "Mo Ci thanks to Mr. Lin's great kindness."

Lin Shan hurriedly avoided it, "The big girl killed the villain, and the villain just obeyed orders."

Shu Moci raised his head and smiled calmly, "Although Mr. Lin acted according to orders, things were in order, and in that situation, Mr. Lin could ignore the old lady's anger and seek justice for Mo Ci, and Mo Ci remembered it."

Mother Xin went to Lin Shan and stuffed a purse into her sleeve, "Mr. Lin is righteous, our girl remembers it in our hearts, there are still many places where the girl is young and relies on the manager, and Mr. Lao is bothered."

Lin Shan didn't twist either, accepted the purse, thanked the party and sat down on his knees opposite Shu Moci, and spread out the map and account book he brought, "Big girl, please look, this is Xishan, because the grass and trees are difficult to grow, no one buys land to build Zhuangzi, only some people who can't survive grow some crops there, and the harvest is very small, but in the end it is not far from the capital, although the land price is not high, it is definitely not low, and the slave can't think of what the big girl wants to buy such a place for?" ”

Although Lin Shan's words were tactful, he clearly expressed his disapproval, and Shu Moci groaned and spoke, "Manager Lin, the silver ticket is not only useless but also causes trouble in my hand, and buying these useless things will not attract people's red eyes, I don't know how much silver it costs to buy the whole piece of Xishan?" ”

"About fifty thousand."

"Where's the shop in Yuqian Hutong?"

Lin Shan spread a map on the table again, "Big girl, please see, this mark cinnabar is the remaining shop in Yuqian Hutong that has not been bought and wants to be distributed, the emperor is sage, the population of the capital is increasing, although this Yuqian Hutong is cold, but even if the shop wants to drop the price, it will not drop too much, if the girl feels that the silver is not at ease in her hand, it doesn't hurt to buy a few more, the villain has also explored other places, such as Xing'er Hutong and near Zhuque Street, there are a few shops that are sold, and the girl can also take a look."

Shu Moci thought for a while, "Buy all the land in Xishan, choose a place with good feng shui to build a Zhuangzi, the people who originally farmed there will be recruited into the Zhuangzi as long as they are not of bad character, and the rest of the silver will be bought in Yuqian Hutong, if there are good ones in other places, Mr. Lin will help me buy them as appropriate, and I don't need to rely on this to make money."

"I don't know what the use of the eldest girl is to build a Zhuangzi in that poor mountain and bad water?"

"It's clean there, it's close to Chang'an, and it's great to be a place to retire."

The corners of Lin Shan's mouth twitched sharply when he listened, girl, you are only thirteen years old, is it really good to think about a retirement home?

"Zhuangzi doesn't have to be too exquisite, the wall should be strong, the circle should be larger, it is best to build a racecourse in it, well, I will draw a drawing in a few days, and then ask the general manager to refer to it."

"The girl has her mind?"

Shu Moci nodded, "Manager Lin doesn't have to worry, even if 50,000 taels of silver is lost, it is better than being stolen by a loved one and secretly laughing at Mo Ci's stupidity."

Lin Shan was silent, "Don't worry, the villain will try his best to handle this matter for the eldest girl."

"I wonder how much the housekeeper in my mother's shop has recovered?"

Yu Lerong is not good at management as Shu Moci in his previous life, and most of the dowries given to Yu Lerong by Yu Guogong are all kinds of gold, silver and jade and ancient calligraphy and paintings, as well as some granges, and there is only one shop, which is the most famous rouge shop in Chang'an.

Yu Lerong likes to mix rouge very much, and the color and fragrance of the rouge are excellent, the old duchess simply opened a rouge shop for her to toss, and she didn't want to rely on Yu's own various rouge recipes to make a hit, and later Yu Lerong got married, and the old duchess also included the color division into Yu Lerong's dowry, and the grange basically didn't make much money, and the vast majority of the 100,000 taels that Zhong paid to Shu Moci were the income of the color fang, and it is conceivable how good the business of the color division was.

"The shopkeeper of the color division is the old man of Yu Guogong's mansion, the eldest lady did not dare to move, only bought the account room and messed up the accounts, and drove away a few stewards, so that the business of the color division was broken, I conveyed the meaning of the eldest girl to let the shopkeeper find the steward who was driven out, and I think there will be an echo soon."

"I'm tired of Steward Lin, and then I will ask Steward Lin to let the shopkeeper come to see me, and then ask Steward Lin to choose a suitable one in Yuqian Hutong after buying a shop, I want to open a medical hall."

"The medical hall - the eldest girl, please forgive the villain, I am afraid that the medical hall will not be able to open for a while, and the supply of contacts and goods, etc., the Hou Mansion will not be able to provide any help."

"This matter is not urgent, Steward Lin will help me pay attention to it, and I will think about it again."

Lin Shan should go down, and seeing that she was fine, he said a few words of gossip and stepped back without mentioning it.
