Chapter 187: The Secret of the Box

"Miss, isn't this box too thick, it looks big on the outside, but it feels small on the inside?" Caixia said suddenly.

Li Xin suddenly woke up, this is indeed the case, compared to the common box on weekdays, the box in front of him seems to be a little too thick. That's why it looks like a very large box, but the volume inside is small.

It is precisely because of this that this box makes people feel strange, after all, an ordinary jewelry box, what do you do if it is so thick, and it is not a coffin. Moreover, the walls are so thick that you will feel awkward when you look at this box, because it is really good to see where to go.

It's just that why this box is so thick, it is originally a good mahogany, which is hard enough, and there is no need to make it so thick.

She asked Caixia to bring a dagger, and used it to gently scratch along the gap in the box. The box is not hollowed out from the inside, so it is not one, and no matter how good the carpenter's work is, there will always be gaps.

She gently scratched through it one by one, and suddenly, when she reached a place, the box changed. The surroundings popped out like small drawers, Li Xin looked at it, and it was full of silver tickets. The denominations are all 1,000 taels, and there are no small denominations. She counted them, and the total was fifty thousand taels.

What is the concept of a silver ticket of 50,000 taels! Even though the Ling family is wealthy, the money is also earned little by little, and it is not like leaves that can be picked up everywhere. It seems that Old Madam Ling really has good intentions and actually got such a box. didn't let Caixia take it out early, because I was afraid that she would refuse!

Moreover, it is true that so many silver tickets cannot be taken out in front of people. Although the people of the Ling family are very good to her, the red envelope given by Master Ling also has a silver ticket of five thousand taels, which is a very valuable gift. However, if so many silver tickets were taken out in front of the other people of the Ling family, even if they didn't say it, they might not have some other ideas.

She knew that Old Madam Ling loved her very much, but she didn't expect that she would give her so many silver tickets. With these silver tickets, as long as the life is very luxurious, their family will not be able to use it up for a lifetime! Moreover, with these silver tickets, it is natural that she can buy a lot of industries, and money makes money, as long as she uses snacks, she will not have to worry about silver money for the rest of her life.

When she was going to the Ling family, she didn't expect that the people of the Ling family would really love her so much. Especially Mrs. Ling and Master Ling, although Master Ling didn't say much to her, they always looked like a very strict old pedant on weekdays, but as soon as they made a move, they were five thousand taels of silver tickets, so you can imagine their love for her.

Looking at the silver ticket on the table, she really had a sour nose and felt like crying.

"I didn't expect the old lady to give so many silver tickets!" Caixia was also very surprised. Originally, the old lady had already given the young lady a lot of things, those jewelry, the most precious thing was the box of pearls and gems, that were all good things, even if you had money on weekdays, you might not be able to buy them, it must have been the old lady who had saved for many years. Pearls are precious sea pearls, no more than ordinary freshwater pearls.

It seems that the old lady really loves Miss very much!

"I don't know how to repay my grandmother's kindness." Li Xin sighed. How can she repay such love! Old Madam Ling was so good to her, but she could really reciprocate very little. The Ling family has everything, so naturally they don't need her. If you want to talk about companionship, the family can't do without her, she can't always be with the old lady.

It seems that it can only be in the future, and when Wenbo and Wen Hao grow up, they will be able to support a family. There is no need for her in this family, so she will go to the capital and accompany Mrs. Ling well.

In her previous life, not only did she fail to be filial to her grandparents, but she didn't even accompany the second elder well, which is her regret. So in this life, such regrets must not be there again, she rarely has a grandmother again, she must be filial piety to make up for the regrets of her previous life.

"Where does the old lady need the young lady to repay! As long as the young lady's life is good, the old lady will be content. ”

Originally, Li Xin wanted to lie down, but at this time, he was sleepy every day. She put the silver ticket back in the box, restored the four walls of the box, and put the jewelry into the box and put it back in again. handed it to Caixia, these things are not needed for the time being, let's put them away!

If she didn't buy any property, she wouldn't have been able to spend those silver bills. She still has a lot of money in her hand! After buying the Zhuangzi, she kept 10,000 taels of silver tickets for the silver that she used for the silver that she sold the potted plants. And this year, during the Chinese New Year, although the silver money is also being used, there are also a lot of products produced in the Zhuangzi.

The canola oil alone was worth a lot of money, and the peppers and tomatoes, and the orchard. I earned a lot of money in a year, and my family didn't need much on weekdays. The silver money from the sale of those acres of watermelons alone is more than enough for the family to live in.

So, now she is actually quite rich.

However, the family's property is still too small, there is only one Zhuangzi, and the income is not very much. The main thing is that the money is not used in the hand, and it is just saved, and it can't be made with 1 money!

Or should she buy some industries, shops or something, and she can't think of any good business for a while. Moreover, she is not very familiar with business, she is still good at farming, it seems that it is better to buy two more Zhuangzi. There is such a thing as a field, the field has finally been in his own hands, and there is no question of whether he loses or not.

You should still ask the tooth to help you inquire. I've been inquiring, and if there's a suitable one, I'll buy it.

"Miss, this box should be kept by Miss!" Caixia didn't dare to accept the box, looking at the box as if she was looking at a hot potato.

"You can help me put it in the big box and put it away with the other things, and then put it in the warehouse! I'll keep the key and look at it myself. Li Xin smiled and hung it around his neck. She also knew that if Caixia was allowed to keep the key again, Caixia would definitely not dare to get it. The contents of the box are too valuable, but they are not easy to keep, and if something goes wrong, it is not a hundred words.

Speaking of which, she really misses her magical bracelet, if there is a bracelet, throw something inside, even if the house is turned upside down, the thing will definitely not be lost.

Yin Tianchen didn't know if he remembered to return her bracelet, Yin Tianchen shouldn't have been here, because Wenbo didn't say that he had seen anyone. And Shopkeeper Sun didn't tell her anything, so he shouldn't have come, otherwise Shopkeeper Sun would definitely have to talk to her. It's been so long, and the things that won't be relieved haven't been dealt with yet!

Caixia went out with the box first, and Li Xin put out the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and then slowly grinded the ink. Early tomorrow morning, the steward of the Ling family will take the little servants back to the capital, and she should write a few letters and bring them back. One is naturally for the old lady to report safety, and the other is for Mr. Yu. There is also a letter to Ling Ziye, writing down the planting method of corn and the eating of peppers, sweet potatoes, and pumpkins.

For the Ling family, it must be a novelty, if you don't make it clear, if people don't know how to eat it, it's not a waste of good things.

After thinking about the wording, I wrote the letter. When she had finished writing the letter, she fell asleep. I'm still very tired, I need to take a break, otherwise I won't have much energy in the afternoon.

By the time Li Xin got up, Caiyun and Caixia had already packed up the house they lived in. Seeing her get up, Caixia went to bring water to serve her fresh.

I really slept for more than an hour. In fact, you can sleep all day long when you are in a carriage, but the road is bumpy, and even falling asleep will make you feel tired. In this era, it is really a toss to go far away, but there is almost no way for her to change this situation.

The carriage, she can make it more comfortable at most, but what kind of shock absorption facilities, she is not a talent in this area, so naturally she can't do it at all. As for the road, what asphalt road, that's not her area of expertise. At most, she can get some concrete, but the concrete road should be more comfortable to use than the dirt road!

Although the official road is also wide and flat, the dirt road is easy to be potholed, and no one looks at the road construction all day, so it is slowly impossible to talk about it. Especially in the summer, it always rains, and the road is always pressed back and forth, and there are deep puddles in some places.

It would be nice if you could make the road into a concrete road, but you can't make it for a while. She knows, but she doesn't have the money to build roads, and to build bridges and roads, it's completely paved with money, and this kind of thing still has to be done by the state.

However, if she could, she could build a road from Sanshi Town to Guihua Village, or from here to Zhuangzi. However, for the time being, I just think about it, and this matter still needs to be considered in the long run.

When she arrived in the front yard, she knew that Zhu Yong had already pulled a lot of sweet potatoes, corn and old pumpkins. The sweet potatoes were bought from the village chief's family, and Li Xin's original plan was to buy them with the Zhang family, but there was a little bit of rumor! A few of Uncle Zhang's brothers jumped out, which was really annoying.

As soon as Zhu Yong came back and said it, Wenbo decided to let him buy the village chief's house. The yield of sweet potatoes is high, and Osmanthus Village and several surrounding villages have a bumper harvest of sweet potatoes, so the price is naturally unaffordable, but it does not cost much silver.

However, even if you can't buy money, the big guy is still very happy. It's not good to sell for a while, so you can keep it and eat it slowly. Besides, the big guy naturally has distant relatives and close neighbors, and this place has a bumper harvest, and everyone in many surrounding places knows about it. For novelties, there are also many people who buy them. And there are a lot of people who want to buy all the rattan seeds, and they also want to plant them this year!

It seems that the enthusiasm of people in this world for growing sweet potatoes is still very high. R1152
