As the capital of the Ming Dynasty, Shuntianfu is still quite prosperous, although the pedestrians on the street do not reach the point of rubbing shoulders, but they are also very lively.

And Zhang Yanling was naturally very curious about everything around him when he first arrived, and Zhou Jin was really good, he was very familiar with the various areas of Shuntian Mansion, and if Zhang Yanling wanted to see something, he could quickly take Zhang Yanling to find it.

There are a lot of good things in Shuntian Mansion, and Zhang Yanling is also more excited, so the usual amount of money brought by him was quickly spent, and more than one or two pieces of silver were spent.

When the sky was about to get dark, Zhang Yanling and the others only looked at a small area of the entire Shuntian Mansion, and Zhang Yanling also felt a little tired, so he asked Zhou Jin to take everyone to find a restaurant nearby, and spent a few hundred dollars to eat and drink enough before returning to Jianchang Bofu.

On the way back, Zhang Yanling began to think about ways to make money, although he knew that he would not be short of money to spend even if he ate, drank and had fun every day, but Zhang Yanling would not be satisfied with such a simple lifestyle.

However, in fact, the reason why Zhang Yanling wants to make money is entirely because it is almost half of autumn now, and autumn is almost halfway over, and winter will be far away! Well, Zhang Yanling is actually a little afraid of the cold, which once made Zhang Yanling, who is a northerner, very depressed and embarrassed.

In order to create a warm winter environment, Zhang Yanling wanted to renovate the current Jianchang Bo Mansion, and he still needed to think about how to do it. Of course, whether you want to make money or not depends on how much silver is still in the current Jianchangbo Mansion.

……

"Zhou Jin, go and call Steward Zhou over, I have something to ask him." Zhang Yanling sat on a chair in the side hall, feeling the slightest coolness, and commanded Zhou Jin.

"Okay, young master." Zhou Jin agreed, and then walked out.

After about half a cup of tea, Steward Zhou hurriedly ran in.

"Young master, you look for me." Steward Zhou looked at Zhang Yanling very respectfully and said.

"Hmm." Zhang Yanling nodded, then pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Come, come, sit down." ”

"Thank you, young master." Steward Zhou suddenly responded with a smile on his face, as the chief butler of Jianchang Bo Mansion, Steward Zhou was more open than Lan'er.

"Steward Zhou, it's useless for me to call you here, I just want to know how much silver is left in the mansion and how much daily expenses are." Zhang Yanling said very casually.

Seeing Zhang Yanling ask this question, Steward Zhou's expression became solemn, "Young Master, I brought one hundred taels of silver and fifty copper coins from the old mansion before, which were used to buy furniture and two days of daily expenses plus the expenses of the young master before I went out, a total of ten taels of silver and ten consistent, two hundred and thirty copper coins.

As for the expenses, because the objects that should be replaced have been replaced, and most of the missing items have been made up, so the daily expenses in the house after that are about three taels of silver.

But in three days it is time to give the next people a monthly order, there are twelve nurses in the house, five servants, two cooks, one porter, five helpers, four maids, about thirty-three taels of silver, of course, the maids have not made up for it now, and it will cost some silver, and the daily expenses will rise a little more......

Zhang Yanling frowned, this is only one hundred and fifty taels of silver, and it has cost some, which looks a little little! And after that, there will be more maids and servants...... It's not at all the same as he thought! This made Zhang Yanling very depressed.

"Wait, Steward Zhou, isn't the money in our Jianchang Bo Mansion a little small!" Zhang Yanling interrupted Steward Zhou's words and asked very directly.

Of course, Zhang Yanling just wanted to ask the reason, but Steward Zhou misunderstood.

"Young master, the villain is definitely not corrupt!" Steward Zhou hurriedly got up and wanted to kneel.

"Stop, stop, stop." Zhang Yanling hurriedly grabbed Steward Zhou's arm and didn't let him kneel, "I'm not talking about this, I'm saying that the money brought from the old mansion is too little." ”

"I'm scared to death of the old slave." Steward Zhou patted his chest with palpitations, and then explained helplessly, "Young master, in order to bury the old man, the family spent almost half of their savings.

In addition, the autumn tax has not yet been received, so I am a little nervous. But young master, please rest assured, the saint has rewarded our Zhang family with a lot of things before, plus the gifts given by the officials and relatives who come and go, the eldest prince will definitely give the young master some more silver, but it should take a few days to add up those things. ”

Zhang Yanling nodded to show his understanding, the previous funeral was indeed on a grand scale, and it should have cost a lot of people to be black!

In fact, how did Zhang Yanling know that Guogong's funeral was very Hongdae, and it was difficult for wealthy families to afford it, but it was all hosted by the imperial court with money, and it was said that it would not cost the Zhang family much money.

But in order to make his father's funeral more grand, his eldest brother Zhang Heling did not hesitate to exceed the system, even Emperor Hongzhi could not take money from the treasury to subsidize the Zhang family, of course, if the emperor was willing to take money from his small treasury, it would be another matter, but this was obviously impossible, which caused the huge expenses of the Zhang family.

Of course, these are not the most important, the most important thing is that the Zhang family has made a fortune for too short a time, and the wealth they have gathered is still limited, which is not as good as those century-old aristocratic families.

This is also a useless thing, when Empress Zhang was still the crown princess, because Wan Guifei was still there, even Emperor Hongzhi, who was still the crown prince at the time, had to be cautious, and their maiden family of the crown princess was naturally as careful as they were, and as cautious as they were.

Therefore, it was not until Emperor Hongzhi ascended the throne that the waist of the Zhang family hardened, but the old lady Zhang of Shouning was more old-fashioned, which led to the fact that although the Zhang family had made a fortune, it was also very limited.

So don't look at the many precious furniture and antiques in Shouningbo's mansion now, in fact, most of them were rewarded by Emperor Xiaozong and brought back by Empress Zhang.

"Okay, it's nothing, Steward Zhou will go back." Zhang Yanling waved his hand and let Steward Zhou go, while he pondered, as for what to ponder? Of course, how to make money quickly.

It's a pity that Zhang Yanling couldn't think of a good idea after thinking about it for a long time, so he had to give up.

'Damn, that's a bit too much!' I want to build a dignified Changbo Zhang Yanling, but I am determined to be an aspiring young man who eats and waits for death, and now he is thinking about how to make money, which is so embarrassing. Zhang Yanling was very sad and angry, he felt that he was too much of a failure, "Forget it, don't think about it, go back to sleep." ”

As for why I went to sleep, I said that this is a night without entertainment, what can I do without sleeping. Well, wrong, in fact, we can still explore the secrets of human reproduction.
