"I can't imagine that this prefect's family has hidden so much money. It's a pity that none of these treasures and antiques can see the light, and they are too bulky to take casually, so I have to pick some easy objects and these silver tickets. ”

Ding Dang counted the harvest of his night talk about the prefect's back house.

Last night, he talked about the county government at night, and walked around several storage places a few times, which was really eye-opening.

If you don't say that you get promoted and get rich, isn't promotion just getting rich!

In less than two years after the prefect took office, he saved a net worth of more than 100,000 taels, which is not counting those things that are not easy to realize, and there are so many cash alone.

"That's how you came up with to make money?"

Ding Yuchen didn't say anything about her brother's stealing, and strictly speaking, she didn't have much awareness of the laws of the world.

"This kind of thing is indispensable, it should be urgent for a while, and you can't count on this after a while."

"It's better to use the money to buy a few stores, I have inquired about a few stores in the east of the city that seem to have plans to change hands."

Ding Yuchen counted the gold leaves, silver tickets, gold bars and other belongings on the plate, and roughly estimated a number.

"The price of gold has risen, these gold leaves are worth two thousand taels, plus silver tickets, there can be more than five thousand taels, that is, I have never seen gold bars, and I can't set a price, but no matter how cheap it is, it will not be less than five thousand taels. This is all in one place, that is, ten thousand taels of silver, nine cents of silver. ”

Nowadays, gold is rarely in circulation, unless it is a large transaction, gold bars and gold bricks are used, and gold leaves are usually used more.

Nine cents of silver is ninety percent of the purity of silver taels, and most of the pawnshops of the money village use this kind of circulating silver taels.

The exchange rate between the price of silver and gold fluctuates from day to day, roughly around 160 to 1, sometimes 100 to 1, sometimes 300 to 1.

So the valuation is vague.

These two are actually very heavy, Ding Dang can't actually carry too much alone, and the time is in a hurry, most of them are still silver tickets brought back.

It's a pity that these silver tickets look like a lot, but the face value is not large, most of them are a hundred taels of denominations, and there are ten taels, five taels, and even one tael, which do not add up to as much as imagined.

Large silver tickets, more than 100 taels, it is not so easy to withdraw cash, you must bring the seal and signature of the head of the household to take out, otherwise even if others get the silver ticket, don't want to take out a penny.

The bank saves money, but it needs to spend money.

The so-called money bank is a place where the money is kept, and the head of the household deposits the money and pays the fee on time.

"It's good for my sister to have an idea about these things, I don't understand these things anyway."

"You...... They all told you to read more, such a big person, and you can't even manage the accounts. ”

"Reading has nothing to do with the bookkeeper, and a few of those sour Confucians know how to make accounts, so they don't want to ask Mr. Bookkeeper."

When it comes to reading, Ding Dang lacks interest.

He lay listlessly on the table, like a wilted green.

"Is reading really that annoying? Why do I find it interesting? ”

Ding Yuchen asked curiously.

She is very interested in poetry, opera, and all kinds of books in the world, and she has bought a copy of all the books she can buy on the market.

"It's very boring, those poems, songs, and operas are all moaning without disease, only the history books are a little interesting, but there are only wild history miscellaneous records in the bookstore, and there is not even a copy of the official history, so I have to look at it."

"As for what the sages say, the words of a hundred schools, I can't read a word, those so-called sages are not as good as the guests we met in the water mansion, they are all vain, saying some empty words, I haven't seen a few good books that can be seen."

Ding Dang got up, walked outside, and said:

"I had a bit of an unexpected gain last night, I had to go out of town today, and I'm afraid I won't be back until tomorrow. If there's something going on here, sister, you can send it away by yourself first, that prefect is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and most of the time it will make some trouble. ”

"I know, you should be careful on your own roads, and try to kill as little as possible, so as not to upset the local city gods."

When the sister and brother first practiced the way of sword immortals, they were like a sharp weapon in Kaifeng, and when the murderous aura was strong, it was said that they should kill as little as possible.

……

About 100 miles outside the city, on an unnamed hill, trees and flowers grow everywhere.

It was autumn, and the yellowing leaves were falling all over the land.

On the path into the mountain, a group of people carried bows and arrows on their backs, led hounds, falcons stood on their shoulders, and followed by a large group of people, hundreds of people entered the mountain.

"Listen, the prefect said that this time, as long as the white fox with a snow-white body is all over it, it is best to be alive. After the deed is done, each of you will have at least twenty taels of silver and three gold leaves. If you can catch it alive, the reward will be doubled. ”

"You are all the best hunters in the neighborhood, I know you all have your own unique skills, you can't hide your secrets this time, whether you can have a good year, it's up to this trip!"

The prefect's henchmen, now also put on hunting clothes, looking like a big housekeeper, walking in front of the team, commanding more than a dozen hunters.

"It's okay to chase foxes, who here doesn't know how to chase foxes? But is there really a white fox here? ”

"Foxes that don't have variegated bodies are all xenospecies, which are rare, and I haven't heard of them in this part of Maolin."

"I've been hunting here for nearly ten years, and I've never seen a white fox, only a red fox, and the coat color is not pure, there is always variegation."

"Even if there is a fox with white hair, it can't be without any variegation......

The hunters complained one after another, the white fox, and the white fox with no variegated fur, it was really too difficult, and it took a teenager to meet one!

"The prefect of my family has invited Liu Banxian to calculate, there must be a white fox here, you just have to do your best."

This confidant had a proud expression, and took the banner of the old blind man on his own.

Although the prefect didn't explicitly say that it was the blind old man who pointed out the location of the maze when he instructed him, he couldn't guess it!

When the old man saw the blind man Liu, he turned around and asked me to bring someone here to find the fox, who else could there be but the blind man of Shinto Taoism?

Need I say more?

Thinking proudly, this family member was showing off in front of people again, blowing that this Liu Banxian had nothing in the sky and the earth, and several hunters were stunned.

Pity the blind old man, all his advice was in vain.

A little fox the size of a palm slipped quietly out of the grass beside the road, its forelimbs off the ground, and the man stood up, already listening to the words of the group.

After a while, it followed the path known only to it, and made several circles to the cave.

Chirped a few times, and the little fox anxiously screamed into the cave.

Soon, a small white fox cub crawled out slowly.

It's snow-white all over, and there is no variegated hair at all.
