Chen Wenhui sneered and said, "Everyone in the world is like this. Sister Caiyu is also smart in doing this, and it is good to save people, anyway, Seoul has been sentenced, and the rest of the people, save them, first, to accumulate some virtue, and secondly, to get a good reputation, and their mothers and sons will also have a place to live in the future. ”

Shui Liu said: "Yan Da Steward also said the same, he said, originally, after Mrs. Lan left, although she had the support of the Lan family and the help of Mrs. Lan's sisters, she was a woman with three children, after all, it was more difficult. Especially the three children of the Wang family, after all, their father is a sinner, and they will be criticized in the future, whether they are in office, business, or marriage. But now it seems that it shouldn't be, after all, Mrs. Lan is famous, and they have their mother as a backer, so they can also get a good reputation in the future, and it can be regarded as washing away the stain of bad background. ”

After saying this, Chen Wenhui understood and said: "In this way, the old lady may be Sister Caiyu's bent on trying to save her." The rest of the people also do it to leave a good name for their children. It's okay to do this, it doesn't cost much anyway, and it can leave a good name for your children, and it will be good for you to get married in the future, but it's very worthwhile. This should be a good idea given by the Lan family to Sister Caiyu after saving the old lady. ”

Shuiliu said: "Yan Da Guan also said so. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "In this way, the ending is not bad. Okay, I've been soaking for a long time, come on. ”

Shui Liu and others were busy serving Chen Wenhui to dress.

After Chen Wenhui freshened up, Zhao Chongyi came back, and Chen Wenhui chatted with Zhao Chongyi for a few words. said about Lan Caiyu, Zhao Chongyi also praised Lan Caiyu for doing the right thing. Zhao Chongyi said a few words to Chen Wenhui again, and he did business. He had already told the various stewards of the Xiao Chen family who were waiting here in Jiangnan Qinghe Building, as well as the stewards of Cuijin Building, and asked them to investigate.

On the one hand, on the surface, Zhao Chongyi wanted to rush to the city to meet Huang Tingzhen the next day, and asked Huang Tingzhen to help him investigate the case.

In this way, it is faster to start both openly and secretly.

Chen Wenhui and the two talked for a while, and then rested. After all. Although it was a two-day journey. But I didn't have much rest, and it was still very hard.

The next day, early in the morning, Zhao Chongyi rode to Qingyang City. Chen Wenhui has rested enough. before getting up.

Shui Han and Shui Liu reported: "The news that the county lord has come to live in Zhuangzi has been spread. I think that in two days, Grandma Yan and Grandma Cao and others will come over. ”

Chen Wenhui commanded: "My salute is all in the back." But before, there were things in the goods purchased from southern Xinjiang, how to deal with them? ”

Shui Han said: "These things are all on Zhuangzi now. Here is the brochure. There were two horses in total, and the warehouse in the pile of Zhuangzi was full. ”

Chen Wenhui took the booklet and looked at it, took out a pen and hooked it and said, "These, these are gifts for Grandma Yan, these, these are for Grandma Cao, these, these are for Mrs. Lan." And these are for Mrs. Huang. These are for Mrs. Yan. And these are for the wife of the head of the Lan family, that is, Mrs. Lan's mother. These are all to be brought back to the capital and kept for relatives and friends in the capital. And these are to be kept for us to put in our storerooms. In the future, it will be transported to the county lord's mansion in the capital. In addition, some of these precious medicinal materials are sent to the pharmaceutical factories in the capital. These are for Mrs. Hu to keep for her. These are for mothers. These are for the Black Family's Medicine Hall. The rest of the bulk is sold. You go and hand it over to the great steward of Yan, and let him sell it. ”

Shui Han hurriedly wrote it down.

After Chen Wenhui finished the distribution, Shui Liu said: "County Lord, this is almost the New Year, are we going to celebrate the New Year in Jiangnan, if we celebrate the New Year in Jiangnan, it is just right, take these things as New Year's gifts and send them to relatives in the capital." Also, the government also has to say that it is going to prepare things for the New Year in Jiangnan. ”

Chen Wenhui crooked her neck and lay on the pillow, but what she thought in her heart was that this Zhao Chongyi really didn't know how to be tired, in the past two days, she was fine, she was sitting in the carriage, but Zhao Chongyi had been riding on a horse, bumpy for two days, and she was not too tired, and at night, she had to ask her so much, she couldn't be tired. I don't have the spirit yet, but Zhao Chongyi can still fight boxing and practice swords in the morning, and he went to Qingyang City for business early in the morning, how can he have such a good spirit?

Shui Liu asked, but Chen Wenhui didn't make a sound, knowing that Chen Wenhui was wandering again, so he had to ask again. Only then did Chen Wenhui hear it clearly, a little embarrassed, and said: "We are celebrating the New Year in Jiangnan, you are right to remind us, and we will also tell you in the capital." The gifts of relatives in the capital should also be sent as soon as possible. We also have to prepare things for the New Year in Zhuangzi. ”

The water willow was busy.

Chen Wenhui said again: "After these things are distributed, you should also pay attention to helping Mu Li Gongzi prepare things for the New Year, and make a few clothes for Mu Li Gongzi, which is good." Let Cuijin Lou come and tailor it. Be sure to entertain well. After two or three days, it is estimated that the maids and servants of Master Mu Li have arrived, and when the time comes, just hand it over to them. These four are all from our Qingchun City. However, counting the time, in a few days, the things sent by Southern Xinjiang to Master Muli, the steward, and the entourage should also be able to arrive in Qingyang City, you have to arrange a good place to live, don't be lazy. ”

Shui Liu thought for a while and said: "We may be busy during this period of time, and there are some things that are not easy for Master Mu Li to see, so it is better to be like this, our Zhuangzi was originally bought and built by Mrs. One of the Zhuangzi on the left and right is Mrs. Hu's and the other is Mrs. Mingzhu's. It was all bought and built with the help of our wife. It's all three-in yards, and they're all beautiful. Why don't we borrow one for the Mulli sons to live in. So close and convenient, and don't have to go in and out of a door? ”

This Chen Wenhui also knows. After thinking about it, he said: "Okay, you have arranged it very properly, after two days, the two maids of Mu Li Gongzi will move them over when they arrive." Let's move to Mrs. Hu's yard. Just talk to Mrs. Hu's steward. I'm also here to repair a book and say hello to Aunt Hu. ”

The water willow is busy.

Shui Han said: "In this case, a few days ago, stewards from all over the world came to ask, where is this year's account?" Where is the silver delivered? Is it to the capital, or to get here. It's better to tell them all to come here. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "Okay, it's just right, the second master is busy with him, so we'll look at the accounts here." ”

Shuilian said at this time: "County Lord, it just so happens that our silver has been spent, and they have come to send this year's dividends, so we will not worry about having no silver to spend." ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "Aren't I the richest person in Da Chu?" Why are you still short of money? ”

Shui Lian couldn't help but roll her eyes angrily and said, "The county lord has just spent money for a while, where does he care about the money?" The hundreds of thousands of taels of silver we brought from the capital were all invested in Jiangnan to recruit people. Fortunately, we still got hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in Jiangnan, plus the goods we bought in Jiangnan, and after selling them in southern Xinjiang, we bought things in southern Xinjiang. Now our storerooms are full. It was something that we brought 400,000 taels of silver from Jiangnan, plus the goods we sold in southern Xinjiang, and the 100,000 taels of silver we earned, for a total of 300,000 taels of silver. Not to mention, the county lord and the second master participated in the gambling competition and won more than 100,000 taels of silver, not all of them bought goods, which added up to almost 800,000 taels of silver. We have less than 10,000 taels of silver left. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled embarrassedly and said: "I haven't been in charge of the accounts recently, so I didn't think about it so much, I didn't expect it, I, the richest person in Dachu, who everyone praised, only has 10,000 taels of silver now." It's really poor. ”

Shui Lian laughed angrily and said, "Ten thousand taels of silver is a big amount in an ordinary family, but it is not enough for the county lord." We prepare gifts for the capital for the New Year, and we don't have to worry about the big things, anyway, there are those rare things that Miao Jiang brought back. However, small items always have to be bought. For example, the silk in the south of the Yangtze River, or something, always has to be sent to the capital. There is also the Chinese New Year, and our house will also give out silver money and reward money, and the Zhao family's mansion will also give silver, right? ”

Chen Wenhui thought about it and said: "The silk, fans, tea and the like here in Jiangnan still have to be bought." These estimates don't cost much, and two thousand taels are enough for each family. It's also easy in the palace, the silk in the south of the Yangtze River can get some fresh patterns, and then get some novelties from southern Xinjiang, just do it. It's easy for my mother's house to do that. This year, my sister-in-law and second sister-in-law are in the capital, I'm afraid, I don't have to send them things to Nanyang, just send them to my mother's house in the capital. There are also the Zhao family, in addition to the houses of the Zhongyi Mansion, the parents-in-law, and the Zhao family. Hey, there's a lot of money to use. However, these things are all counted, and I think that the two thousand taels I budgeted just now should be enough. After all, the large ones are all brought by us from southern Xinjiang, and then there is the silk from the south of the Yangtze River, which can be bought with the help of the Lan family, and it must be a new trick, cheap and good. However, these are just things to give, do you really have to give money? We haven't taken monthly money from the Zhao family, so why do we have to give them money for the New Year? When Chongyi comes back, the two of us will have a good discussion. ”

"Not to mention, there are also our servants, guards, and stewards of the trading houses everywhere who have to distribute money and food, and also give rewards for the holidays, which is really a big expense. Hey, 10,000 taels is not enough. Who said I was the richest person in Da Chu? How do I feel poor now? ”

The four of them laughed together. (To be continued......)
