Chapter 140: Scraping together money

On the side of Shaoqing's Mansion, when the old lady received a report from the doorman that the cousin girl had an urgent matter and returned to Qingsong Bookstore, she didn't think much about it at that time, and opened the cage to count the silver tickets.

At the beginning, the amount of family wealth that Kou Qingqing brought was huge, and it was impossible to keep it in his hands all the time. Some of them were stored in the silver village, some bought the shops with good locations, and some of them were released to collect profits.

The amount of money released to collect profits is not small, and this sum cannot be recovered for a while, and it is impossible for those shops to be exchanged for money immediately. What the old lady can use is the money deposited in the bank, as well as the silver ticket kept at home.

There are a total of 300,000 taels in the bank, and they are deposited in several banks, and the 300,000 taels not only cannot make a profit, but they have to pay the money bank for safekeeping. The old lady is greedy for money, but she is also cautious, and in the past few years, she would rather lose some storage fees than keep a sum in the bank, and now this money naturally has to be withdrawn first.

And the silver ticket left at home is counted as 100,000 taels, although it is nothing compared to Kou Qingqing's million-dollar family wealth, it is unimaginable in the homes of ordinary eunuchs.

These add up to 400,000 taels, which is still 200,000 taels short of the number proposed by Xin Yu. The old lady counted and counted the ready-made silver tickets at home, and her heart was dripping blood.

Duan Shaoqing came back in the evening, and as soon as he entered the house, he went straight to Ruyi Hall.

"Got it back?" The old lady withdrew from the waiter and asked her son.

Duan Shaoqing picked up the teacup and drank a few sips before saying, "I ran a few houses and retrieved 200,000 taels, and the 100,000 taels from Jinsheng Qianzhuang said that it could only be taken the day after tomorrow."

Jinsheng Money Bank is the largest money bank in the capital, and the largest amount of money was deposited at the beginning. This kind of large withdrawal should have to be greeted in advance, and it is normal that Duan Shaoqing did not bring back all the 300,000 taels of silver.

"It's nothing, it's a big deal to take Qingqing to Jinsheng Qianzhuang tomorrow, and the people from Qianzhuang will check the authenticity and hand her the small chapter that took the money. But how much money can you have at home?"

"I counted it in the afternoon, and the silver ticket can have 100,000 taels."

Duan Shaoqing frowned: "That's still 200,000 ...... Where are the gold and silver ingots at home?"

"The gold and silver ingots are converted into a hundred thousand taels." The old lady didn't want to touch the real gold and silver.

For her, who experienced that turbulent period, the silver ticket and the shop seemed reliable, but after all, it was not as good as real money.

Duan Shaoqing thought about it, gritted his teeth and said, "Then take out 50,000 taels."

The old lady was very distressed: "All this gold and silver are stored in the treasury, and it is troublesome to take them out."

"Mother, you're still in trouble. My son is really going to be embarrassed by that girl, and Shaoqing's Mansion has become a flat-headed people's family, and we can't keep this money!"

The old lady nodded with a pang in her heart.

"There are still 150,000 taels left-" Duan Shaoqing endured the heartache and made a decision, "Use the shops to make money, those shops can make money, and that girl can't be picky anymore."

He will definitely get these belongings back, including Qingsong Bookstore!

The mother and son studied which shops to take out, and they didn't dare to let other people in the house find out about it, so dinner was placed in the dining room of Ruyi Hall as usual.

"Where's Cousin Qing?" Duan Yunlang saw that the bowls were almost ready, and he didn't see Xin Yu's figure yet, so he asked in wonder.

The old lady actually didn't like to see this grandson who couldn't hold back her words, of course, she wouldn't show it on her face, and said, "There's something going on in the bookstore, your cousin has gone back."

She thought of her son's hearing that her granddaughter had returned to the bookstore, and said that Qingqing was guarding against them, and she was annoyed in her heart.

That girl is really heartless.

Duan Shaoqing curled the corners of his mouth imperceptibly.

First bury a few thorns in my mother's heart, and even if my mother knows that it was him, she will not be too angry in the future.

"Cousin Qing's bookstore should be quite stable recently." Duan Yunlang's eyes lit up, "Could it be that a new book is coming?"

Duan Shaoqing couldn't hear the word "new book" the most now, and his face immediately sank: "Eat!"

Duan Wenbai glanced at his brother in surprise.

Although the eldest brother is the head of the family, it is a little strange to show his face to his nephew in front of the couple and his wife.

Is this something wrong?

Duan Wenbai thought like this, and the second wife Zhu

He exchanged a look.

Zhu took a sip of tea silently.

In the past few months, she has been in charge of the house, and her ears and eyes are much better, and the movement here in Ruyi Hall this afternoon is not small, although she doesn't know the inside story, but I'm afraid it can't be separated from Qingqing.

[In view of the general environment,

She saw the old lady's plan, she wanted to match Lang'er and Qingqing. She doesn't plan to meddle in this, if Qingqing is willing to marry Lang'er, she is not dissatisfied, if she doesn't want to, she won't do anything deliberately.

As for what the old lady does, she can't control it as a concubine and daughter-in-law.

"Alright, eat." The old lady glared at Duan Shaoqing and picked up the fast.

For a while, the people around the table stopped talking and got up to eat silently.

Duan Yunling squeezed Kuaizi's hand tightly, and took a green vegetable and ate it, but he didn't taste it at all.

Could it be that Cousin Qing helped her solve her troubles and annoyed her grandmother and father?

If that's the case, wouldn't she have caused Cousin Qing to suffer-

Duan Yunling glanced at the old lady quietly, thought about it and thought about it, but remained silent.

Cousin Qing told her not to do anything, she had to calm down.

This night, most people in Shaoqing's Mansion didn't sleep well. The old lady was distressed about the large sum of money she had given out, Duan Shaoqing was thinking about the plan to kill people and seize money, the Zhu family was thinking about her son's family affairs, Duan Yunchen was worried about the changes in the family's personnel, Duan Yunhua was annoyed about the missed opportunity, and Duan Yunling was worried about her cousin's situation and her own problems.

Xin Yu had a good night's sleep, and the next day he went to the study hall refreshed and waited for He Qingxiao.

He Qingxiao came from the yamen and did not bring his subordinates.

This is also proposed by Xin Yu, after all, she only trusts He Qingxiao, not those Jin Linwei.

"Lord He, let's go." Xin Yu led He Qingxiao to the three carriages parked on the side of the road.

The carriage had been prepared a long time ago, and the guards who wanted to follow her to Shaoqing's Mansion had also been selected, and the deeds of these guards were all pinched in Xin Yu's hands, and he was not afraid of seeing a large amount of money in his mind.

"I'll just ride a horse."

Although there were three carriages, He Qingxiao still felt a little strange to take the car provided by Miss Kou.

"Lord He, feel free."

Seeing Xin Yu walking towards the first carriage, He Qingxiao asked, "Are the three carriages together?"

"Ah, yes, I can use it." Xin Yu smiled and got into the carriage.

Most of the money she can get today is a silver ticket, but there must be some real money, which will need to be dragged by a carriage.

Shaoqing's Mansion is not far from Qingsong Bookstore, and it didn't take long to arrive. Xin Yu got out of the carriage and walked towards He Qingxiao: "Please wait for me here for a while, Lord He."

He Qingxiao didn't know that Xin Yu was going back to her grandfather's house to move money, so she nodded when she heard the words, guessing in her heart what the big deal that Miss Kou had negotiated was.

In the Ruyi Hall, the old lady was sitting in danger, and Duan Shaoqing also sent someone to the yamen to take leave, and deliberately stayed at home.

Hearing the maid's report that the cousin had arrived, the two looked at the door together.
