Zhou Shuren had already gotten into the carriage, but he saw Chang Lian still standing stupidly, frowning, "Don't leave yet?" ”

Chang Lian didn't need to reply with equal ink, and quickly got into the carriage when he came.

Ink separation, "........"

Since the master mother went out, he found that the masters of the family were all afraid to breathe, well, they didn't dare either!

Back to Zhou's house, the family was waiting to eat, Zhou Shuren was in a good mood, not only did he have 20,000 taels of silver to build Lizhou, but also refused to win over, Zhou Shuren thought of this year's taxes, the potatoes and sweet potatoes in the granary have been replaced with corn and other grains that can be stored, and the taxes of merchants in the second half of the year have also collected a lot, although there are still some of the following counties that are basically equivalent to nothing, but the whole Lizhou is still good.

Zhou Shuren silently calculated, seeing that the New Year is over, I don't know if there is a year-end bonus or something, Zhou Shuren took a sip of wine, the emperor is poor and looks at the silver, it is good to have a conscience reward, don't think about the year-end bonus.

Zhou Shuren was in a good mood, and the atmosphere of eating in the main hall was also relaxed.

The only thing that is tangled is Chang Lian, I used to hear how powerful the old man was, but now I saw it, he wanted to toast the old man, but he didn't dare to move his hand, and he panicked.

What happened in the restaurant didn't have to wait until the next day, and the officials of the entire Lizhou City would know about it.

Master Chen's mouth opened wide, "You say it again, I didn't hear it clearly." ”

The little guy was silent, the adults didn't hear clearly, but they didn't believe it, the little guy learned it again, and he still had some emotion in his heart, Lord Zhou was not only a good official, but also a lover, he couldn't help but look at the master, his own aunts were all sent!

As for Lord Zhou saying that he heard it wrong, he didn't believe it, and this was just a deception to the people who didn't understand.

Chen Chen waved his hand to let the little guy go down, and when the little guy left, he couldn't help but burst into foul language, "Zhou Shuren is amazing, he cheated 20,000 taels at once." ”

Chen Chen thought about why Zhou Shuren dared to do this next week, and finally fell silent, Chen Chen was jealous, Zhou Shuren has the prestige of the people and the importance of the emperor, this is Zhou Shuren's confidence, it can't be compared, it's sour.

He Fu, Lord He was speechless for a long time, he and Lord Zhou are too different, but Lord Zhou is really a loss, Lord He is happy again, Lord Zhou's reputation is too high, and the faster he goes, but his heart is still sour, and the speed of his rise makes people jealous!

The man thinks that Zhou Shuren is shameless enough, and the woman is jealous of Zhulan, who is not at home, Zhulan has been jealous of the women in her hometown, and now she has become the object of envy of the women in the entire Lizhou City!

Zhulan really didn't know, but she felt that there were a lot of sneezes this night, which scared Zhou Lao Da and Zhou Lao Er and asked if they were cold, Zhulan said that she didn't believe it, and Zhou Daren went to invite a doctor.

Zhulan was speechless, and she didn't know if she was cold, "Are you confused when I'm seventy or eighty?" I don't know if I'm sick or not? ”

Boss Zhou sent the doctor away, and he was relieved, "Mother, you have pity on your poor son." ”

A few days before he left home, he was scared by the old man!

Zhou Lao Er didn't want to recall his father's words to intimidate them, they were really afraid that the old man would clean them up when they went home.

Zhulan, "....... Let's all go back and rest! ”

Early the next morning, as soon as Zhou Shuren arrived at the Yamen, he received a silver ticket of 20,000 taels and handed it to Lord Chen for accounting, "This time the money for building the ice cellar is there." ”

Lord Chen gave a thumbs up, "Lord Zhou, there are very few people I admire, I really admire you, I accept it, I accept it." ”

Then he happily took away the silver ticket, although there was some silver money on the account, but to send back to the capital part of it, there was not much on the account, who knows what the situation will be next year, he was worried only to lose his hair, and now there is silver.

Zhou Shuren drank tea, "Lord Chen can admire Zhou more in the future." ”

He has a lot of ways to pit money, if it weren't for the fear of pulling too deep hatred, he directly wrote the donation of silver in the fold to the emperor, although it seems to be a benefit for the businessmen, in fact, it has pitted the merchants of the whole country, this hatred is too great, or don't want it.

Lord Chen looked at Mr. Zhou who was drinking tea speechlessly, the longer he got along with Mr. Zhou, the more he found that Mr. Zhou's face was not ordinarily thick.

didn't wait for noon, the reward team arrived, Zhou Shuren thanked him, looked at the many officers and soldiers in the team, and sighed in his heart, this is not only to give gifts, but also to collect taxes by the way.

Arrange the officials and others, Zhou Shuren doesn't care about food, what he cares about is the deed in his hand, by the way, and the whole piece of jade, this is really generous!

Such a large piece of top-notch jade, the whole carving is a treasure, but Zhou Shuren squinted his eyes, he was not going to carve it and leave it as an heirloom.

It would be good for him and Zhulan to save money for the Zhou family, and to save family heirlooms? Dream about it, and even if you save it, you can't guarantee the long-term wealth of the Zhou family, and you don't know who will be cheaper in the future, plus the baby they saved is dead and can't be taken away, so it's better to enjoy it when you live.

This piece of jade, well, is enough to carve a small box of jewelry for Zhulan, and it is all top-level jade jewelry, and there is a lot of face to take out, the only pity is that the emperor's reward cannot be sold, if it is sold, it will not be necessary to work hard for Zhulan, Zhou Shuren thought in his heart that the emperor has no silver, but there are many treasures, although sometimes it is to death, as long as it is useful to the emperor, the emperor is still very generous.

Zhou Shuren is a man of action, there are many masters with excellent craftsmanship in Lizhou City, Zhou Shuren asked people to come over, ready to make two sets first, less than one-third of the whole piece of jade, and the remaining two-thirds of Zhulan came back, and Zhulan could carve jewelry according to his preferences.

The emperor didn't just reward Zhou Shuren, Lord Chen, Lord He and others could also behave, reward some tangerines and a few ornaments to pay tribute, and the others were gone.

No matter how much the two adults drank the old vinegar, they couldn't help it, who let every policy in Lizhou City be proposed by Lord Zhou.

Zhulan here, has already entered the southern boundary, Zhulan is going to take a boat to continue south, Zhulan came to the boat for the first time in ancient times, it is very novel, but it will soon be a little uncomfortable, the wind is a little strong today, although the wind goes fast, but the shaking is also powerful, plus Zhulan's body has not been on a boat, some seasickness.

It was really fast to go south downwind, and Zhulan was expected to sit for three days, and arrived at the port in two days.

This is already the territory of the south, although it is winter, and the clothes are similar to those in the autumn in the north, Zhulan is not ready to continue south, Jinzhou City is fine, Zhulan sits on the boat and watches, there are green vegetable fields on both sides, this is enough.

Living in the inn of Jinzhou City, the south is prosperous, the architecture is also exquisite, Zhulan is better, and I have not come to Jiangnan since I was a young and modern person.

Boss Zhou and Elder Zhou have entered the city with dirt buns, and their eyes are not enough to see.

Zhulan calculated the distance, she originally expected it to take a month, but she didn't expect to use it, too, she changed her destination and no longer went south, naturally it won't take a month, Zhulan is happy, she can go home earlier, yes, just go home, where there is Zhou Shuren is her home.

Zhulan sent Butler Ding and Zhou Lao Er out for a walk, she just wanted to have a good rest, the room she chose was against the street, Zhulan sat by the window and looked at the pedestrians on the street.

The land in Jinzhou City is fertile, and because of the topography, there are few floods, and Zhulan is more and more satisfied with Jinzhou.

The prosperity of Jinzhou is reasonable, unless there is a war, the general situation really does not affect Jinzhou.

And two
