When Zheng Sen took Cao Bianjiao to open the Zheng family's inner library, Cao Bianjiao also had to exclaim "really rich", what is called rich, Cao Bianjiao before that, thought that he had dug up the treasure left by Li Zicheng, and he was already very rich, more than 10 million, but in the Zheng family's inner library, the copper money was packed with cloth bags, the silver was packed with wooden cabinets, the gold was packed with bamboo baskets, hundreds of cloth bags with copper coins, and hundreds of wooden cabinets with silver were opened.

"Young master, this is the money vault in the village, and there are also cloth vaults, treasure vaults, and armories next to it......" The housekeeper in the mansion also said cautiously, telling Zheng Sen that although Zheng Sen is a young master, he really hasn't been here yet, he only knows that he is very rich, but he doesn't know that he is so rich.

"Just report the total in the account book!" Zheng Sen also commanded.

"Yes!" The housekeeper also responded: "There are 180,000 catties of copper coins and 2 million ingots of silver in the treasury, and the total amount of silver is... Four thousand three million three hundred seventy seven thousand six hundred thirty two... 9,000 ingots of gold, 50 taels each, and the combined price was 450,000 taels; There are 15,000 silk cloths, 4,000 Shu brocades, and 217,650 Su brocades......"

Cao Bianjiao has to say how many dirt buns he has, people count money is about catties and ingots, he is a thesis, on two, how ironic, if he doesn't take out Zheng Zhilong, I'm afraid that millions of taels of silver will continue to flow here every year, and the treasury here can be twice as big as the treasury!

"Butler, let me ask you, in addition to your master, are the rest of his brothers also very rich?" Cao Bianjiao also asked at the moment.

The housekeeper's face also became ugly and a little hesitant, but when he saw Cao Bianjiao's cold eyes, he also replied immediately: "They all have their own manors, although they are not as rich as the old man, but they are basically rich people, just like the fifth old man Zhi Leopard, it is said that there are no less than millions of taels in the house, that is, a thousand generals in the army, and there are tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of taels of savings." ”

"Da Mu, you didn't know these things before, in fact, I don't know, I only know that your father is very rich, but I didn't expect that even his subordinates are extremely rich."

"Father-in-law, then what should we do, whether to recover their property or not, after all, they are all ill-gotten gains!"

Cao Bianjiao waved his hand and said with a smile: "No need, isn't that for them to dig up meat, they have already eaten it, and it will undoubtedly cost them their lives when they are spitting it out, you go to those people, just say that this time the cost of resettlement and dismissal of the old and weak cannot be transported from Nanjing for the time being, it will take time, find them to borrow it first, I will guarantee it, be sure to collect three million taels within three days, as for when it will be returned to them, then let's discuss!" ”

"Yes!" Zheng Sen also understood what Cao Bianjiao meant, what he needed now was stability, and he could only think of other ways.

Zheng Cai's mansion, located near Zhengjiazhuang, can be seen, Zheng Cai's mansion is still very simple, not luxurious, but it does not mean that he has no money, but he is reluctant to use it, and he doesn't know how to use it, he is not good at poetry, calligraphy, painting, antiques, these, just lustful, a hundred taels of silver is enough to buy a woman, and it doesn't cost much.

"At present, the matter of resettlement and dismissal has been decided, and the next thing is the migration, but at the moment the silver of the imperial court cannot be transported, I am here to find the clan brother you to borrow some, guaranteed by the general, and it will be returned to you by the court in the future, and I hope that the clan brother can be generous!"

Zheng Sen also persuaded Zheng Cai by cleaning up, as far as he knew, Zheng Cai had a lot of property in his mansion, but he also adhered to Cao Bianjiao's meaning, or outwitted, not to take drastic measures, and now need to be stable.

When Zheng Cai heard this, he was also embarrassed at the moment, and sighed: "Da Mu, since you call me brother, I won't hide it from you, I have a little money, and it's only a few thousand taels, you need to eat in this house, you don't know your father, the money he earned is used to help the victims, saying that he wants to benefit the neighbors, and the money we get every year is only a few thousand taels, and it costs money to eat, drink and Lazar, and there are no few left, it's really embarrassing, if you really want it, I'll give it to you, it's only three thousand taels." ”

Zheng Sen naturally knew that this was Zheng Cai's prevarication, and he wouldn't take it seriously, so he nodded at the moment and said, "I understand your difficulties, think of a way, can you make up a little more." ”

"It's not easy!" Zheng Cai also had the same expression.

Zheng Sen also nodded, got up and said: "Okay, I won't embarrass you, I'll go find someone else to see, by the way, I borrowed 600,000 taels from the fifth uncle in the morning, the fifth uncle said that the court was in difficulty, he was smashing the pot and selling iron, and he had to help, he had already agreed, and he would send it over in the evening, and Zheng Ming also donated 100,000 taels and borrowed 500,000 taels, and the general was very happy about this matter, and praised them as barons, hereditary replacement, the general also said that he was going to make a plaque for him, and asked Lord Huang of the Ministry of Rites to personally inscribe it, As a reward! ”

"Wait, what are you talking about, the fifth uncle took the initiative to lend 600,000 taels, and even Zheng Ming also borrowed 500,000 taels?" Zheng Cai also grabbed Zheng Sen, who was about to leave, and asked with some surprise.

Zheng Sen also nodded and said: "Yes, you also know that at this time, the general is here, so it's better to behave, there will be more opportunities to get ahead in the future, they naturally have to be more active, even if it is the general army, they also hope to be superior." Alright, I'll go first! ”

"Wait...... Damu, since they are all like this, how can I fall behind, isn't it silver, I will also find a way to smash the pot and sell iron, and I will also share the worries and solve problems for the court, so let's borrow 500,000 yuan from you, and I will donate 150,000 taels. Zheng Cai doesn't want to be the only one who has fallen behind, in that case, what will others think of him, how will Cao Bianjiao see him, will he still have a chance to emerge at that time?

"If you are embarrassed, you will be spared, do you really want you to smash the pot and sell iron?" Zheng Sen wanted to get caught up.

"Don't be embarrassed! I have a lot of friends, I can still do it with their help, don't worry, I'll send it to you before dark today! ”

"That's good! I'll thank you, general, and I'll say a few nice things for you. ”

"Thank you very much!"

Zheng Sen followed the method taught by Cao Bianjiao, and successively went to Zheng Zhibao, Zheng Ming, Hong Xu and others, and soon succeeded in deception.

"Father-in-law, it's done, I've calculated it, it's definitely not less than three million, it's estimated that it's more than eight million taels, but father-in-law, do you really want to grant them knighthoods?"

"They are all heroes, they have donated so much silver, why can't they, not only knight, but also give them a plaque as a reward, although it is a fraud, but they can't just say it and don't do it, so what will happen in the future." Cao Bianjiao said with a smile, this was not unexpected, and it was unexpected that he couldn't get the money.

"The child understands, or the father-in-law is proficient in people's hearts."

"Da Mu, you are still young, don't learn these things, this is a last resort, not the way of a gentleman, if it weren't for the situation, I wouldn't disdain to do this small trip, be a man and do things, or should do the way of a gentleman!" Cao Bianjiao also told him that he didn't want Zheng Sen to become a black-bellied expert in the future, specializing in conspiracy.
