Chapter 119: Wealthy
It's not easy to get out of the house, Shen Yinqiu didn't plan to go back so soon, she took Qianguang and Aoba out of the restaurant under her mother's name first to have a refreshment, and now she has half a token on her, which can be regarded as half of the owner.
The thought of this made her feel ashamed, she didn't do anything, and her mother's property was divided into two.
She felt that in order to show the sincerity of cooperating with Wan Yanyan, it was time to show her own financial resources, otherwise she would seem to have nowhere to go. This is also one of the reasons why she agreed to bring Aoba, who is Shizi's person, and letting her see it is equivalent to letting Shizi see it.
Therefore, Shen Yinqiu took them to the Jiejia Qian Village.
Qianguang didn't hear the master say what he was going to do in Qianzhuang, only that they came out to buy a book. Considering Aoba, she didn't dare to ask more.
The name of Jiejia Money Village is also an old brand that has been open for decades, and it is very trusted by the people, and there are many people who come to this money bank to withdraw and deposit money on weekdays. As soon as Shen Yinqiu entered, the other customers who were waiting looked over.
Although she didn't show up, her whole body was tightly wrapped, but the guy who worked in Qianzhuang only had the sharpest eyes, and Shen Yinqiu's clothes alone were worth hundreds of taels, and there were not many people in the entire capital who wore such luxury. And he was dressed so low-key, and he had a little different bearing from the rest of the daughters.
The eye-sighted little guy hurriedly greeted Shen Yinqiu and said very complimentally: "Hello Miss, may I ask if there is anything I can help you?" You may be seated here. ”
Shen Yinqiu glanced at the people in the entire hall, there were about a dozen, the little maid seemed to just want to invite her to a secluded corner instead of a separate private room, she remembered that her mother said that when she went to the money house, she only had to show the token to the shopkeeper, and they would know what was going on.
Shen Yinqiu followed the little guy to the side, looked at the little guy through the black veil of the hat, and said slowly: "Please ask your shopkeeper to come here."
The little guy didn't refuse, responded crisply, turned around and entered the inner courtyard. It didn't take long for a middle-aged man who was over half a hundred years old and had a general's belly to appear, he didn't look down on Shen Yinqiu because he was a woman, and he said with a smile before he spoke: "In Xia Xu Qing, what does the young lady want to ask?" ”
Shen Yinqiu glanced at this Xu Qing more, neither humble nor arrogant, not leaning on the old and selling the old, his words and deeds were decent, he was not respectful, and he would not make people feel that the other party had offended his status.
She didn't say anything, only took out the token that her mother gave her, Xu Qing only saw what she was holding at a glance, and her attitude was three points respectful, but she was even more curious about Shen Yinqiu, who was blindfolded.
He hurriedly laughed and said, "Miss, please inside." ”
Shen Yinqiu turned his head to look outside, and went in with Qianguang Qingye. Xu Qing felt strange that she brought two maids to discuss matters, and generally this kind of patron let the maids stay outside.
Shen Yinqiu saw that he was looking at Qianguang and the others a lot, and explained loudly: "It's okay, don't worry about it." ”
Xu Qing smiled again, leading the way in front of the left, Shen Yinqiu didn't expect that the private room across the corridor would be so elegantly arranged, celadon calligraphy and paintings, chessboard bookshelves, all in order. The furnishings are also comfortable. Shen Yinqiu has two more favorites for this Jie family money village, if she is here to discuss business, in this environment, the probability of negotiation will be greatly increased.
However, everyone says that as soon as the money village enters, it smells of copper, and when the copper smells to another level, the copper smell will become elegant.
"Please sit down, please take a seat." Xu Qingdao.
Shen Yinqiu was invited to sit down, and the maid with a beautiful appearance and figure came in from outside the door with refreshments, waited silently, and went out backwards with small steps.
Xu Qing motioned for Shen Yinqiu to drink tea, and then asked, "I don't know if Miss wants to take silver or deposit silver?" Although he asked, he didn't have much hope that Shen Yinqiu wanted to save silver.
Shen Yinqiu thought to himself that if I didn't take it or save it, I just came to show off my financial resources. She didn't take off the hat, her white fingers rubbed the Miao porcelain cup, "Boss Xu, excuse me, I just want to check how much money I have left in Guizhuang." ”
For some reason, Xu Qing seemed to have a sense of relief, and got up himself and said, "Miss, wait a minute, stay down and get an account book." ”
Like the Liu family, they all have a first-class account book, and every time they take out money, they have to sign and draw a pledge.
Xu Qing came back in less than a cup of tea, and presented the account book with both hands, "Miss, every payment of the silver from the receipt to the expenditure is recorded on this, you take a closer look." ”
Shen Yinqiu took it and thanked her, opened the account book, and she didn't look carefully at the large and small amounts in front of her, because the signatures were all clear, but the last and most recent expenditure was as high as 20,000 taels, and the signature was Zhang Ling.
She hadn't reacted to who Zhang Ling was at first glance, and after a moment's pause, she remembered that this was not Zhang's maiden name. It seems that the next date was taken on the day her mother threw the token to the scum Shen Linru.
She paused with her finger on the name, Xu Qing thought she had any questions and hurriedly said: "This woman came to take the token, and exchanged the two thousand taels for a silver ticket, and they brought four strong men to transport, and I waited for the people from the money village to intervene." ”
Shen Yinqiu sighed, and said with some curiosity at the end: "Shopkeeper Xu, take the liberty of asking, can your money bank propose 200,000 taels of silver or silver tickets at any time?" ”
"No, no, generally this kind of large amount of silver has to be notified half a month in advance to be ready, when this lady came, it happened to be the day of the gathering of all the branches of our money village in the capital, and the lady was strong to get it immediately, our boss had no way to get all the silver tickets of each branch, and borrowed a lot from other money banks to get it." Xu Qing is really afraid of coming again now, if it weren't for the fact that it was estimated that it was the wife of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the official family couldn't afford to provoke them, and they really wanted to refuse the request. It's not as requested!
Shen Yinqiu nodded, a little apologetic, and his eyes swept to the bottom of the balance, and there were still 300,000 taels of silver.
She doesn't know how much silver ordinary people need a year, I heard that it is more than fifty taels, but for her, a thousand taels a year seems to be not enough, because a season needs twelve sets of new clothes, plus jewelry, rouge, various ointments, and supplements, these 300,000 taels are enough for her to live for ten years?
Shen Yinqiu can't say for sure, the only thing she has felt troubled about silver since she was born is when her money was stolen from Zhuangzi in the countryside.
She closed the account book and thought about counting her dowry, her entire net worth was estimated at 600,000 taels, which was already considered a wealthy rank! Well, although it can't be compared with the real generation of wealthy families, it seems to be a little more confident......
"I'm sorry to disturb the shopkeeper Xu." Shen Yinqiu got up and returned the account book, her mother said that the deposit here was only for convenience and withdrawal at any time, and she didn't need anything.
Shopkeeper Xu smiled and took the busy road politely, and then personally sent Shen Yinqiu out.
Those who can get the treatment of being personally sent out by the shopkeeper are either rich or powerful! Of course, this 'weak' girl trio really can't get along with power, so the rest is rich.
Shen Yinqiu couldn't have imagined that going in and out of a money village would attract thieves. The streets are still full of traffic, but fortunately it's not the point where the festival is not to the point of rubbing shoulders. Shen Yinqiu blended into the crowd, and she didn't have much interest in the stalls on the street. Asked Qianguang: "Qianguang, where did you buy the book before?" ”
Qianguang raised his head and identified the direction and said, "Master, the book shop is in a prosperous area, let's go forward, in the middle of the street." ”
"Lead the way." She walked a few steps and asked, "Are you thirsty?" ”
Aoba was silent, Qianguang shook his head, and said clearly in his heart: "Master, are you thirsty?" ”
"Xu ate too many pastries in the restaurant and was a little thirsty." In the restaurant, it is a private room, and she can take off the hat to eat, but she has no more in the money village, and she has no plans to show up for the time being.
Qianguang proposed: "Master, it's still early, why don't you find a teahouse to quench your thirst and then go to the bookstore?" ”
"Let's go to the bookstore first, and then go to the teahouse to listen to the book." Shen Yinqiu's plan has been thought out since last night, and now he is not completely following the process.
Qianguang naturally had no objections, and walked to the bookstore with his master, surrounded by the sound of their own conversations, there were women and men, and it may be a husband and wife, and there is a family of three, a father who puts the child around his neck. Standing in the midst of this, it inexplicably made her feel free, spiritual. There are no constraints, no rules, no one makes her have to laugh, how to say, and how to deal with it.
Thinking of this, her steps were much brisker. At the foot of the Son of Heaven, beggars are not allowed to appear on the bustling streets, and most of the people who dress richly on this street also account for more than half, most of them belong to consumption. Shen Yinqiu suddenly turned around as she walked, and no one in the bustling crowd looked at her.
Qianguang asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with Miss?" ”
Shen Yinqiu shook his head, "It's okay." "It always feels like someone is staring at her, is it an illusion?
The three of them entered the bookstore, and unlike the bustle of people coming and going outside, the bookstore was a little deserted, as if the two worlds were separated.
The shopkeeper sat on the counter with a book to read, and when he heard the movement, he raised his eyes and continued to look down at the book. There is no intention of greeting at all.
Qianguang was a little familiar with taking Shen Yinqiu to the bookshelf on the side of the bookbook, Shen Yinqiu glanced at it from top to bottom, these titles were not attractive.
She walked forward, and on another shelf, she saw a few agreeable books, "Who's Behind You", "Looking for Relatives in the Tomb", and "In the Middle of the Night".
At first glance, these titles are not about ordinary things, Qianguang lowered his voice, and pleaded a little: "Master, do you want to think about it again, why don't we continue to look at the monsters and monsters from before?" ”
Shen Yinqiu handed over the book to her, continued to look for the book she liked, and refused: "The fox demon rabbit spirit, the flower demon tree spirit have all seen too much, and suddenly found that it is not a monster, and the ghost is also very interesting, and there are many suspense." ”
Qianguang lowered his eyes, looked at the gloomy cover, and wanted to cry without tears.
After Shen Yinqiu went to Qianzhuang, he suddenly felt that he was rich and wealthy, and when he saw the title of the book he wanted, he didn't even read the introduction, so he started it, and took more than 30 copies in a short time. Chimitsu took the book back and forth to the counter and ran three times.
She paid another silver money to let the shopkeeper's bag be sent to the Hou Mansion, and Shen Yinqiu came out of the bookstore, and she would be refreshed after some purchases!
