"I've read all these account books today, and I'll go home tomorrow." The fourth master said. He wanted to say that his birthday was coming soon, just in time for his birthday.

But as soon as he thought that he didn't plan to hold anything in the mansion, he didn't say it, otherwise the thirteenth master and the fifth master would definitely have to make fun.

He didn't want to be extravagant and wasteful, because the treasury was now short of silver, so Kangxi would make him start to recover the money owed to the officials who owed the treasury.

At this time, it is naturally not easy to make a big fuss.

"Fourth brother, I remember that your birthday is coming, right?" Thirteen asked. Naturally, he won't remember the birthday of the fourth master.

The fifth master couldn't remember, so he asked, "Don't you invite the brothers to drink on the fourth brother's birthday?" ”

"It's nothing to have a birthday every year. I've been in the house this year, and I don't want to make a big deal at this time, after all, what we're doing is something that offends people. Even if I had to do it, I don't think many people would go. The fourth master said with a wry smile.

The Thirteenth Master immediately understood the meaning of the Fourth Master's words, and secretly regretted that he shouldn't have said it.

"After sorting it out for so long, I didn't expect to take out so much silver from the treasury. It's scary. It accounts for almost half of the annual harvest of the state treasury. The fifth master said, "Even the master himself also borrowed seven or eight thousand taels of silver." ”

"Fifth brother, your silver will be deducted from the monthly salary." The fourth master said, "The master has already reported to Huang Ama, and he agreed." ”

"Thank you, Fourth Brother!" The fifth master said, and he was sincerely grateful in his heart. In fact, the silver he borrowed from Concubine Yi was almost enough. But if he could change it in batches and installments like this, his hands would not be so tight.

"Whatever is in difficulty, it should be dealt with according to the actual situation. It's not about forcing people to hang themselves. The fourth master said, "Fortunately, we are hiding in the palace, otherwise there will be people in the house blocking the door every day." ”

"Not really. The last time I went back to the house, someone came to the house to look for the master. was blocked back by Fujin. "The fifth master said.

"It seems that they have gone to find the two brothers, I am thirteen but I have a violent temper, and they dare not come to find them." Thirteen is straightforward and authentic.

In fact, those people were not afraid of Thirteen's temper, but they disliked him as just a bald brother who had no weight, so naturally they would not beg him.

"Now that the prince has repaid the silver, there are still people below who want to delay the payment. It's impossible. When the accounts are clear, we will go to the door to ask for it. The fourth master said.

"I really haven't heard of any dynasty where the prince went to the official's mansion to collect debts." The fifth master couldn't help but say.

"Naturally, there is none. So let's get started. The fourth master said.

"Fifth brother, the arrears in the ninth brother's mansion, I think it is most appropriate for you to go." Thirteen to five masters.

The fifth master hesitated, in fact, it was really difficult for him to go to Lao Jiu to ask for silver. Because Lao Jiu has never helped him less on weekdays, he can't wipe his face when he asks for it at this time.

"Lao Jiufu, it's better for you to go. A baker's dozen. The fourth master saw the hesitation on the fifth master's face and said.

"No, I can't talk about Brother Jiu's mouth." Thirteen ways.

"Looks like I'm the only one going to him." The fourth master shook his head and said.

"Lao Jiu is most afraid of the fourth brother." The fifth brother said with a smile.

"Lao Jiu is not afraid of me, but I don't give him a chance to slip his head." The fourth master said.

"Brother Jiu listens to the starling the most. I think I asked the starling brother to repay the silver first, and the ninth brother naturally returned it. "Thirteen.
