Chapter 030 tells the story

Yu Qing asked with interest: "How did the county order ask Lin Youwen for silver?" ”

Hanshan said: "The county order said that he has already settled the master, should Master Lin give him the remaining honorarium."

Master Lin said that the county order had not driven the master, mother and daughter away from Nanping County, so it could not be regarded as a complete settlement of the matter.

As long as the master, mother and daughter are in Nanping County, the lady's dowry is a stolen gong that cannot be struck, and it cannot be used at all.

The county order asked him to rest assured, saying that he didn't need to say it, he would force the master, mother and daughter out of Nanping County, otherwise he would not be able to spend the stolen money from Master Lin.

Master Lin asked again, what if the master's family died and refused to leave Nanping County?

The county magistrate said compassionately that since the owner's family is really so ignorant, it would be good to have an accident. ”

When Yuqing heard this, anger swelled up in her heart.

This gang is also too vicious, embezzling the property of their mother and daughter, and trying to drive them away, and kill them if they don't leave!

Hanshan continued: "Master Lin only then agreed to get the remaining honorarium, and then went to the inner study.

The servant heard two strange noises in the inner study, and after a while, he saw Master Lin returning to the outer study with a bag of silver.

told the county magistrate that he had paid all the remaining three hundred taels of silver.

The county magistrate sneered, saying that in order to help him settle his master, his master and the two officials were all criminally responsible, shouldn't he give some medical expenses as condolences.

Master Lin was silent for a while before he said that each person would give ten taels of silver as a condolence.

The county magistrate refused, and asked him to give a total of one hundred taels of silver, and the two quarreled because of this.

At this time, Aunt Rong sneaked out of the house, avoided everyone, and secretly came to the inner study.

I only heard the strange sound from inside that was separated from the two sounds made by Master Lin when he entered just now.

Then, Aunt Rong carried the big burden that the slave got back on her back, and she didn't return to her residence, and went out of the house secretly through the small door.

The servant saw that she was struggling to carry that big burden, and wondered if it would be silver.

The reason why the slave guessed so much was because Master Lin had taken out the silver from it just now, so it was very likely that the inner study was where Master Lin hid the silver money.

Second, when Master Lin went to see the county order, he said viciously to Aunt Rong that he would continue to beat her when he came back until he beat her to death.

Aunt Yan Zhirong won't believe it and run away?

Otherwise, how can you explain that it's night, and she will sneak out of the house?

The slave then got down from the roof, quietly went out of the Lin Mansion, took off his clothes and covered his face, and caught up with Aunt Rong.

attacked her from behind, knocked her unconscious, robbed her of her baggage, hid in the corner and looked, sure enough, it was either gold, silver and copper coins or expensive heads and silver tickets.

The slave did not dare to take the burden back to the palace, for fear of being seen and questioned, so he had to gamble, hide the burden in a dry well, and then go back to the palace to sleep.

When everyone was asleep, the slave sneaked out again, took out the burden from the dry well, and then came to the master to see what to do with it. ”

What to do? Of course it is impossible to send it back!

When Han Shan spoke just now, Yu Qing had already counted the gold and silver heads in this baggage.

These heads are not only the heads of the He family's dowry, but also the red and gold heads of Aunt Rong's daughters.

Yuqing said secretly, no wonder Old Madam Lin dared to fool her mother and daughter with some silver heads, it turned out that she had hidden all these red gold heads.

Even if the county order sends someone to search, it may not be able to be searched, and of course the old thing has nothing to fear.

There were thirty gold ingots in the baggage, two taels each, for a total of sixty taels.

At that time, He's parents married her two thousand taels of silver, and in this dynasty, the exchange of gold and silver was thirty taels of silver for one tael of gold.

Therefore, these sixty taels of gold ingots are almost worth the two thousand taels of silver that He married.

As for the extra two hundred taels of silver and a dozen copper coins in the baggage, as well as the silver tickets with a total denomination of three thousand taels of silver, they were all Lin Youwen's.

Yu Qing was so angry that she sneered in her heart.

On the same day in the public court, the county order asked Lin Youwen to repay He's dowry, but Lin Youwen delayed in every way, saying that he was not good at business.

I didn't make much money, and I couldn't pay it back in a day and a half.

But in fact, his ability to make money is quite strong, and he actually has a deposit of three thousand taels of silver.

In ancient times, silver tickets were not in circulation, but they could be exchanged for silver at the bankhouses where money was deposited.

Therefore, the silver ticket is equivalent to Yuqing's passbook in the real society.

Lin Youwen wanted to rack his brains to delay time that day, and wanted to embezzle He's dowry.

Now the He family's dowry and Lin Youwen's family background were all inadvertently obtained by Hanshan and handed over to her.

Lin Youwen not only didn't get anything out of the bamboo basket, but also scored a lot of silver for the county order and Wang Dalong, and also suffered a board, this transaction was really a loss to the end.

Yu Qing thought for a moment and took out all the silver tickets.

Only then did he put the burden away and tie it up and handed it to Hanshan: "You immediately send this burden to the house I rented and hide it, and tomorrow we will leave the government and move to that house to live." ”

The reason why Yuqing chose that house to hide these gold and silver treasures was because that house had been empty for a long time.

Even if there were thieves, they would have been there long ago, and it was safest to take these treasures of gold and silver there.

Hanshan was about to leave with his baggage, but Yuqing suddenly thought of a poisonous plan to bring disaster to the east, so that Lin Youwen and the county commander turned against each other and bit each other.

Whoever wins or loses, she's a winner.

She took out a copper coin from her burden and untied it, grabbed a handful and gave it to Hanshan, and handed him all the silver tickets.

After explaining like this, he took several large handkerchiefs and handed them to Hanshan.

Although the rented house had been empty for a long time, it was very unlikely that the thieves would visit it.

But Yu Qing thought about it again and again, if she is not afraid of 10,000, she is afraid of what if, if a thief with a brain pump runs in to see what is to steal, and finds this big bag of gold and silver treasures?

Isn't her master and servant making wedding dresses for others?

So for the sake of safety, Yuqing let Hanshan go to the rented mansion, use a few large handkerchiefs to separate the gold, silver and jewelry, and then hide them separately.

Even if you are unlucky and have one stolen by a thief, there are several others, and the loss will not be so heavy.

This trick is called not putting all your eggs in one basket.

Hanshan took Yuqing's words to heart, and couldn't help but ask when he left: "Master, Master Lin and the county commander have already killed us, should we run?" ”

Yuqing said confidently: "You must run to run, but you can't run so impatiently."

When they force us to leave, we will run freely, and no one will suspect us. ”

When Hanshan heard this, he looked out the window, listened for a while, and was sure that there was no danger, so he turned the window and left.
