Chapter Eighty-Five: Bewitchment

Xia Zhu was really worried that with the fiery temper and righteousness in her third grandmother's bones, she would make a move for Sister-in-law Qiu and the people in the account room.

In that way, they will completely tear their faces with the bookkeeper!

The account room can choke them by the throat.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, I saw the half-arched moon gate in front of me, and the maids and women came out one after another.

Zhao Qing stepped into the Moon Gate.

Inside the gate is a spacious courtyard with an oval-shaped pool in the center of the courtyard, and a pool of clear blue water.

Through the clear pool water, Zhao Qing saw a bunch of maids and stewards on the opposite side reflected in the water, and immediately stood on the edge of the pool and quietly looked for it through the reflection.

“…… Yesterday it was 280 wen a liter, and today it has risen to 300 wen, who dares to say that hoarding grain does not make money? Duanjing, the manager of the accounting room, shouted at the top of his voice, "She took thirty taels of silver, and the price of grain was one hundred and fifty wen per hour, and she bought a total of 200 buckets of grain, which was fifty-six taels according to yesterday's price, and if she hadn't withdrawn yesterday, it would be sixty taels today!" He raised four fingers high and compared, "This night's hard work will make a full four taels of silver!" Repeated, "Four taels of silver, after deducting the handling fee, there are enough three taels or four left!" "Join the share of hoarding grain, and the eldest grandmother draws one hundred and fifty wen for every two taels of silver," all caught up with the eldest lady in the old lady's house for two months' monthly profits, not the eldest grandmother's kindness, who will buy you for hoarding one liter and a half of grain by yourself?" Where do you usually make money here? The voice was loud and loud, piercing through the air. The minions passing by outside stopped one after another, pulling their necks to look at this side.

There are also good believers who hurried to this side.

Some came in and some went out. It's more lively than the boiling gruel.

Duan Jing's family's voice was even louder.

"I regret it, I don't say I regret it, I even quibbled that we should refund the silver at today's grain price!" looked at everyone, "Everyone commented on this reason, she said hello yesterday and closed the account, and she has notified the outer courtyard to withdraw the elements, how can she withdraw according to today's food price?" It's just an excuse to continue to stock up on food. "Don't look in the mirror either." What kind of virtue do you have, since you can't believe in the uncle and grandmother, why does the grandmother still make cattle and horses to help you earn money! ”

The crowd burst into laughter.

Time. Say anything.

The four mothers-in-law walked down from the upstairs with two large pieces of paper full of transcriptions, "...... The accounts are all transcribed. The two mothers-in-law held up the big white paper and stood in front of Duan Jing's family for her to see.

"It's hanging here, everyone can see it!" Duan Jing's family held on to the side of the paper and looked at it carefully for a while, and then pointed to the wall behind him and ordered.

A little maid had already moved out of the stool and paste.

The two mothers-in-law stepped on their high feet and pasted two large pieces of white paper with ink that had not yet dried side by side on the high wall.

Wow......

Immediately the crowd flocked to him.

"My one or two halves have risen to four or two!"

"My three or two halves have risen to seven or two!"

"How much did you enter. How much has it gone up now? ”

……

There was a scream of excitement in the courtyard. Another maid who came with a letter surrounded the two lists.

Seeing that everyone was talking about it with an excited look on their faces, Duan Jing's family smiled coldly.

She clapped her hands twice and looked up at everyone.

"Listen, everyone, these days, some people are spreading rumors everywhere that hoarding grain will lose money, and they are urging everyone to withdraw their members, and it is not easy for grandma to say such malicious rumors in front of everyone, but ......" she changed the topic, "grandma said." If you think that you will lose money by hoarding food, just come and withdraw your shares! She pointed to the list. This is the account as of today, the grandmother let it be posted for everyone to see, if you want to withdraw the minions, just come in and register, but I said it first, because everyone's silver has hoarded grain, the outer courtyard must sell the withdrawn grain according to the account before the silver can be returned, everyone registers and takes the silver at least three days apart, and the account room pays according to the price of the grain on the registration day, so as not to have such a bad thing as Sister-in-law! ”

“…… If you want to withdraw the elements, please go up to the second floor to register! The two mothers-in-law behind Duan Jing's family shouted loudly.

When I heard the third master's words before, I hesitated to withdraw the shares, but now that I see that the silver of my participation has doubled, how can anyone really be willing to withdraw?

Especially there is a precedent for Sister-in-law Qiu to earn nearly four taels of silver less in one night!

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and they all shake their heads.

Someone has already started to walk out.

Seeing that after shouting for a long time, no one went upstairs to register and withdraw the elements, Duan Jing's family secretly breathed a sigh of relief, secretly wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and went upstairs with easy steps.

"In two months of hard work, I have earned forty-seven taels and six, how much have you earned?" Two mothers-in-law who had just seen the list walked out happily, and one of them said.

"I made less money, and I was ten days later than you, so I earned twenty-six twenty-eight, and after deducting the interest on the money, I made a net profit of twenty-three twenty-seven." The other mother-in-law sighed as she spoke, "This opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but unfortunately, I staked the three broken grass houses at home to borrow twelve taels of silver, if only I could borrow more." ”

"I also put the dowry jewelry together with the family's house, only to make up thirty-one taels, my mother-in-law still has the ancestral jade bracelet in her hand, and you can borrow one hundred taels if you put it out, and it has been moved by my family's mouth, who knows that when I heard that the third master dreamed of hoarding grain and losing money, he refused to bet on life and death today!" After a pause, "No, I have to go back and persuade her!" ”

"Then you have to hurry, there will be no such shop after this village! You didn't see that Wang Degui's family even borrowed the bride price that her mother's brother was going to marry his daughter-in-law. The other said, and the topic changed, "I don't understand, obviously everyone watched the food prices outside rise with their own eyes, how could Sister-in-law Qiu be so smart and confused, and really believe the nonsense on that side, and as a result, she lost nearly four taels in one night!" ”

Four taels of silver, for a family like them, it's enough for half a year!

"Needless to say, she has already hooked up with the third master and has a leg, when she heard that it was the dream of the third master, how dare she go against it?" The mother-in-law said, "If you think that you have no relatives and are innocent, why would the third master give her the house in the house for nothing, and let people send things to help from time to time!" He leaned in again and said, "I heard that the Qiu Gongzi went to Beijing to take the exam, and the clothes were all paid by the third master!" ”

"So that's ......" The other mother-in-law was taken aback, and was about to say something, when she saw the opposite mother-in-law's eyes widen, she subconsciously turned her head. (To be continued......)
