Xiao Chen was on the 'hospital bed', and he didn't forget the emperor, and asked Xu Wenzhou to raise 5.5 million taels of silver, as well as a large amount of materials, and send them to Fengyang City one after another.

Five million silver is a huge amount of money, but for Xiao Chen now, it is really nothing.

In the past few years, he has earned a lot of gold and silver just by relying on overseas trade, and it is no exaggeration to say that the real money and silver of the entire East and even the West have all flowed to Yanyun County.

Except for a few people such as the old man, no one knows how much money Yanyun County makes?

Anyway, no matter when, where, or who he faces, the old man is always crying bitterly and poorly, and few people can see the essence through the phenomenon and notice that the old man's eyes are actually smiling.

But although there is a lot of money, it must not be spent indiscriminately!

For this reason, the old man repeatedly warned Xiao Chen, don't be extravagant when you have a little money, the more rich you are, the more you must be diligent and thrifty, and put an end to all forms of extravagance and waste, yes, just pretend to be poor...... Nonsense! What pretending to be poor? We were already poor, and we have never been rich!

To be honest, how much gold and silver is in the silver treasury of Yanyun County now? Xiao Chen didn't know much, because Liu Xiangqin, who was in charge of Yanyun's finances, had never reported to him, and it was estimated that he would not report it.

When he saw Xiangqin, he occasionally asked curiously, Liu Xiangqin was always vague, and Wang Gu talked about him left and right.

Later, he was also very interested in not asking.

After all, this is what the old man thinks is the top secret of Yanyun County, and an identity like him should not be qualified enough to know......

The old man should save when he should be saved, but he is definitely not stingy when he should spend it, just like he quarreled with Fu Yan for hundreds of thousands of taels of silver before, and even almost turned his face several times, but in the end, the silver was still given to Fu Yan for a penny, and it did not delay him to build the road at all.

Even the canal project proposed by Fu Yan was quietly put on the agenda.

The biggest investment is actually Yan Yunwei, the old man was really against the expansion of the army before, but now he is not very opposed, not because his thinking has changed quickly, but because his pocket has become bulging.

No matter how much money the old man had in his hand, Xiao Chen didn't bother to ask him for it, and he decided to pay for the money given to Li Wanjiang out of his own pocket, although he was a little distressed, but he saved the old man from bothering with him, even if he was ruined and scolded, he wanted to be clean.

But there is not much personal property left under his name, it is estimated that it will not be long before the old man forcibly takes over the management, Xu Wenzhou said that the small one has tried his best, but it is also difficult to support independently, boss, you had better be mentally prepared, we have a lot of silver in our hands, but now it costs one or two, it is one or two less.

Xiao Chen didn't think so, what did he do with the money? It's just for spending, earn it after spending it, and spend it again after you earn it! This is called promoting the circulation of money and increasing economic development...... Of course, you can't spend it indiscriminately, you still have to use it on the blade, such as Wu Xiuping's machinery manufacturing factory, how much investment is worth it.

Xu Wenzhou said that Brother Xiuping is really awesome, although the car he said has not yet been manufactured, several ancillary products have been mass-produced and begun to be put into the market, so that the funds can be returned.

Glass, myopia glasses, reading glasses, mirrors, just a few things, do you know how much money you make? I tell you, don't tell the old man! Because there is really not much left for us.

Xiao Chen thought so, and also expressed considerable praise for the sobriety of the world in Wenzhou, by the way, how much silver do I have in my personal account now, in addition to the five and a half million taels for Li Wanjiang and the purchase of materials?

"There are always hundreds of thousands of taels." Xu Wenzhou Road.

"Say it again?" As soon as Xiao Chen saw Wenzhou's sincere appearance, he knew that he was lying.

"Oh, I mean there are hundreds of thousands of taels, our family usually spends too much, hundreds of people eat, drink and Lazar, and after winter, we have to buy coal firewood, overhaul the heating ......" Xu Wenzhou's eyes kept blinking.

"I didn't hear you." Xiao Chen began to change his face.

"If you count everything, you can barely make up a whole number, and there is still about one million taels left." Xu Wenzhou's eyes blinked faster and faster.

"Wenzhou, you have time to find me someone who is shrewd and can settle accounts." Xiao Chen said suddenly.

"Why, boss, you still don't believe me?" Xu Wenzhou was not happy, "Our family's accounts are clear." ”

"It's not a reckoning, I need a new housekeeper." Xiao Chen said.

"I did the math again, it may be more than one million, all the money, plus the recent return of funds, there are probably millions of estimates." Xu Wenzhou immediately changed his tune.

"Have you been rebelled by the old man?" Xiao Chen felt that the people around him couldn't be trusted now.

How did Mo Feng do it? There are so many spies around me, why haven't you found out any of them?

"The old man is also ......good for you," Xu Wenzhou said, "Boss, you can't replace me, I still love you somewhat, if you change a bad one, I will definitely report you to a false account." ”

"You kid will report me a false account now!" Xiao Chen said angrily.

"I'm half-truthful, and I can't agree to change my old man...... Boss, don't be angry, you are recuperating now, and your anger hurts your body, especially your liver, it's not what I said, it's what the fat brother said......" Xu Wenzhou persuaded with good words.

"I'm going to let the fat man be the housekeeper, and he's better than you!" Xiao Chenqi's liver ached.

"Oops!" Just as he was talking about the fat man, there was a fat man's shouting outside, mixed with Qianye Ling's complaints, Ling'er's shrill laughter, Xiao Ye's sullen laughter, Ouyang Cui's chuckle, and Li Tanhua's laughter......

"What the hell are they?" Xiao Chen was extremely curious and pushed the door out.

But I saw the fat man grinning his teeth, covered in snow, Chiba Ling was covered in snow, kicking and beating the fat man, there was a two-wheeled vehicle lying next to him, and a group of people around him were watching the excitement.

It turned out that Wu Xiuping had just built the world's first bicycle, and he kept his promise and gave it to the fat man, making the fat man the first person to ride a bicycle and the first person to fall on a bicycle.

It's not that there is a problem with Wu Xiuping's bicycle, but that the fat man can't ride at all, and without waiting for Wu Xiuping to explain the driving points to him, he can't wait to ride it, and he has to ask Qianye Ling to sit in the back seat.

As a result, he didn't ride ten meters, and even the person with the car fell to the ground, and he didn't forget about it himself, and the person who hurt Chiba Ling was so embarrassed! Laughed at by the big guys.

That's what you call sweetness? Don't stop me, I'm going to kick this abominable fat man to death today.

", just like your clumsy appearance, you dare to say that you know martial arts?" Xiao Chen said, I really despise you.

"You can do it!" The fat man was annoyed and angry, grabbed the bicycle and threw it at Xiao Chen, the force was so great that he was angry with him.

But when the bicycle flew in front of Xiao Chen, it suddenly fell straight and landed gently, this move was extremely ingenious, and Li Tanhua and others cheered loudly.

So although the fat man can't ride a bicycle, he still knows a little bit of martial arts.
