Xu Fan glanced at Huang Yuanwai with a little meaning, but Xu Cheng's face changed slightly, and he couldn't recover for a while.

In Daming, especially in Jiangnan, the use of counterfeit money is not uncommon, let alone embarrassing. It's not so much that tonight's Hongmen banquet is for Xu Fan, but for Xu Cheng.

Now that Xu Fan and Xu Cheng are in the same boat, they both want to split a piece of power from within the stable Xu Group, which can naturally be seen as an attack on this alliance.

"Tsk, it's fake." Xu Kun took it and pretended to flip it through: "Big brother, the accounts at home are all real silver, why don't you take it from home?" This silver seems to be real, but I don't know how much of it is in it. ”

Huang Yuanwai said in a loud voice: "Now people's hearts are not ancient, and people who are messy outside can't be recruited casually." They took the owner's money, and they didn't forget to move more to their own home. What's more, the matter of money must be done by honest and reliable people. ”

Xu Fan glanced at Xu Cheng and smiled wryly.

- It seems that this brother is beating himself.

Of course, Xu Fan knew that he would affect the distribution of rights in his family after he came back, and he also saw that most of the people Xu Kun assigned to him were minions and henchmen, and while surveilling, he had to drag his feet and push back all kinds of things. When he revealed the intention of recruiting another newcomer, the big stick really fell.

If you are not determined, you may really be frightened, obediently fooled by those people, and finally achieve nothing, disappointing the old father.

In order to get the effect of killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, they even started from Xu Cheng, who had already been beaten into the "cold palace".

"If I say that this silver is true, will an old shopkeeper of the silver dumping shop jump out immediately to give some advice?" Xu Fan picked up the wine on the table, put it under his nose and sniffed it, closed his eyes to lift his breath, and then put it back again.

"What do you mean by that, big brother?" Xu Kun's face was full of alcohol, as if he was going crazy with wine: "Big brother is saying that I set up a game to trap you?" What am I going to set you for? What does it matter to me whether the silver you take out yourself is given to others? I'll just say one more thing, but I'll become a wicked person? ”

"If I say one sentence, you can top ten sentences." Xu Fan said: "I'm forty years old, don't know silver? ”

"Now that fake silver is flying all over the sky, what's so strange about getting a fake?" Xu Kun said: "Which silver shop doesn't do something like stealing chickens and touching dogs?" The eldest brother just returned to Songjiang, he is unfamiliar, what is there to make a fuss about being cheated? Brother, I just remind you that the family is more reliable, and you say such uninteresting things. ”

Xu Fan beckoned Xu Cheng over and whispered a few words. Xu Cheng nodded slightly, got up and walked out.

Xu Yuanzuo was talking to Cha Cha and the two maids outside, asking some common sense in the Qinglou, and when he saw Xu Cheng coming out, he hurriedly greeted him.

Xu Cheng didn't talk nonsense, turned around and closed the door, drove out a few maids, and asked in a low voice: "I gave you thirty taels of silver, why did you dump it back or thirty taels?" Just no fire? ”

Xu Yuanzuo knew that there was a problem when he heard it, and hurriedly said: "The big shopkeeper gave ninety-seventy percent fine-grained silver, and fried it into ninety percent silver." The extra silver in here is like the fire drain. ”

The silver of high fineness is fried into silver of low fineness, or the silver is exchanged for copper coins, and the part that is supplied to customers by the shop is called silver water. The fire consumption is used as the labor cost of the silver pouring shop, which is just offset by it.

Xu Cheng stared at Xu Yuanzuo's eyes: "Do you know that Da Ming is ...... for counterfeit silver?"

"Whoever forges silver or gold shall have a hundred rods for three years. For those who buy messengers from those who know about it, they will be subtracted by one each. Xu Yuanzuo fluently recited the terms of the "Da Ming Law" and asked in a low voice, "Is there a problem with the silver?" ”

"The one surnamed Huang said it was counterfeit silver." Xu Cheng said.

Xu Yuanzuo saw that Xu Cheng still trusted him, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Are they looking for someone to inspect the silver?" ”

"I'm afraid you want us to find someone to test the silver." Xu Cheng said.

Xu Yuanzuo said in a low voice: "Indeed, in the Fengyue Field, if you can find someone to check the silver immediately, it is too pretentious. He added: "Big treasurer, there is something I didn't plan to say, but since this happened, I have to say it." ”

Xu Cheng said: "You say." ”

"The thirty taels you gave me are counterfeit silver, which seems to be ninety-seventy percent, but in fact it is less than ninety-percent." Xu Yuanzuo said.

Xu Cheng was a little surprised: "Then you won't come back to me?" ”

"Since I have taken on an errand and I don't do it perfectly, how can I have the face to look back at you?" Xu Yuanzuo said.

Xu Cheng was quite moved, and said secretly: This kid is really solid-eyed. But if he had come back and said that the money had been fake, I would have been suspicious.

"They just want me and the young master to go back to detect the counterfeit silver, cut off their own intention to recruit people, and use their people with peace of mind to be a hands-off shopkeeper." Xu Cheng said hatefully.

"Then ...... right now" Xu Yuanzuo knew that this was the Xu family's housework, and he couldn't participate in it anymore, so he simply continued to pretend to be stupid.

"You don't have to worry about it, the young master has his own plans." Xu Cheng turned to leave.

Xu Yuanzuo looked at Yashe, and soon there was a sound of smashing cups inside.

Xu Fan is going to take the opportunity to have a seizure!

After a silence, Xu Cheng ran out again, only glanced at Xu Yuanzuo, and went out to call Xiao's mother. After laughing in a low voice, Xiao's mother had to reflexively go out.

Xu Yuanzuo looked through the inside of the house, and saw that several girls who accompanied the wine were all cowering, and even the Oiran Yu Linglong was trembling and hiding in the corner. As for Huang Yuanwai and Xu Kun, in the face of Xu Fan, who was full of anger, they didn't even dare to breathe.

Think about it, what kind of character is Xu Fan? People can command two or three thousand people in the cold winter and complete a big project of a palace in three months! With such organizational ability and leadership skills, how much can the entire Ming Dynasty have?

A twenty-four or five-year-old official of the third generation and a rich man want to brush Xu Fan's tiger whiskers? Is this arsenic wine not afraid of too heavy taste?

Xu Yuanzuo hid outside and peeked for a while, smiling secretly in his heart, but he was worried that Xiao's mother had a leg with Huang Yuanwai. In the end, this is people's home field, if you find some inexplicable people to come and bite to death and say that the silver is forged, then won't you jump into the Yellow River and can't wash it? Hmm, it's better to jump closer to the East China Sea here...... But it's all unwashable anyway.

Xu Yuanzuo didn't worry for too long, because soon he saw an old acquaintance.

Today, the guy who was slapped in the face by the shopkeeper of An Ji in the silver dumping shop was carrying a small wooden box and followed Xiao's mother into the outer room of the house.

The guy was also a little surprised when he saw Xu Yuanzuo, his lips opened slightly, and when he saw Xu Yuanzuo turn his head as if he didn't know him, he naturally didn't say hello.

"Brother Hui, it's these masters who want to check the silver. I thought that you lived not far away, and it happened that he was a senior disciple of the old man in Jiangnan, and the old body was also close to the water, so he pulled you here so late. As soon as Xiao's mother entered the house, she was smiling and laughing, but she held the smoked guy very high.

Xu Yuanzuo thought that the scars on Brother Hui'er's face were still there, and he couldn't help but want to laugh.

Brother Hui nodded again and again, put down his wooden box, and asked for silver. As soon as I started, I naturally knew that I only did it in the afternoon, where could it be fake? But since people have promised benefits, they naturally have to verify it in a fake way, otherwise how can they be embarrassed to take a thank you gift?

After a professional and dazzling test, Brother Hui said, "This is definitely ninety percent of the real silver. ”

"That's safe to use." Xu Fan put down the next sentence, his eyes swept over his younger brother Xu Kun and Huang Yuanwai, and finally fell on Xu Kun: "Go home early." ”

Xu Kun looked at his brother indifferently and nodded, his throat as if his phlegm was blocked.
