Chapter 141: Collecting Money
With an ivory-white jacket and an azure pleated skirt, the girl who walked in was beautiful and bright, and she was calm.
"Grandmother, uncle." Xin Yu calmly greeted the two.
The old lady was already annoyed by her granddaughter's ability to make trouble, and Duan Shaoqing's words were hidden with thorns, so she couldn't put on a loving appearance when she saw Xin Yu at this time, so she asked her to sit with a straight face.
Xin Yu sat down as she said.
"This is the silver ticket that your uncle exchanged for yesterday from a few banks, plus the money kept by the family, a total of 300,000 taels." The old lady pushed a box over.
Xin Yu opened the box directly in front of the two.
Although it has only been more than 20 years since the founding of Great Xia, the various articles of association of Qianzhuang are much more standardized than the chaos of the previous dynasty. Not to mention anything else, the minimum denomination of silver tickets is five taels, and the maximum denomination is one thousand taels, which is a unified regulation for large and small money banks.
It is said that this was the proposal of the queen mother.
The silver tickets in this box are the largest denominations, and the 300,000 taels of silver tickets fill the small box to the brim.
Xin Yu took out a stack of silver tickets and looked at them casually.
At that time, the old lady deposited 300,000 taels of silver in several banks, and did not exchange them for silver tickets and put them at home for safety reasons. It is still the uniform rule of these banks, and if the deposit of silver exceeds 10,000 taels, the silver ticket can be replaced by a fixed copper seal. This kind of small seal is safer and more convenient to keep than a paper silver ticket.
Yesterday, Duan Shaoqing came back with a few small medals in exchange for silver tickets. If you want to exchange it for real money, you have to take the silver ticket to the corresponding bank.
"This is a small chapter of Jinsheng Qianzhuang, there are 100,000 taels." Duan Shaoqing handed over a small chapter with a cold face.
Xin Yu took it and took a closer look, the copper small chapter is small and exquisite, the bottom is a complex picture, engraved with the word "pick", which means that this small chapter can take out 100,000 taels of silver from the bank.
Whether it is a silver ticket or a small chapter, the money bank recognizes things but not people.
Xin Yu put the box and small chapter containing the silver ticket in his hand.
This is 400,000 taels, which is still 200,000 taels short of what she wants.
The old lady saw that her face did not change in the face of such a huge amount of money, and she looked like she was waiting for them to continue, and her eyes sank even more.
This girl is not only ruthless to Shaoqingfu, but also has no understanding for her grandmother.
"There are still 50,000 taels of silver at home, and I have prepared it for you." The old lady's eyebrows twisted out of the Sichuan character can trap mosquitoes.
Xin Yu smiled, "I brought a carriage and men, can I let the cart come in later?"
Duan Shaoqing said coldly, "Yes."
He didn't want to attract the attention of others and attract Xiaoxiao.
"The remaining 150,000 taels—" Xin Yu elongated his tone.
Duan Shaoqing slapped a box in front of her: "Here are the deeds of more than a dozen shops, and the combined value is much more than 150,000 taels."
Xin Yu opened the box, and this time he looked at it very carefully.
Whether there is a problem with the silver ticket and the small chapter, it is easy to know that the water on the shop is large.
After reading the deed one by one, Xin Yu pulled out one: "I have passed by this wine shop, and it seems that there are no customers."
Duan Shaoqing's tone was cold and stiff: "The business was good or bad later, and it did cost this money to buy the store at that time."
Xin Yu thought for a moment and put away the stack of house deeds: "Uncle is right, so be it. Where is the fifty thousand taels of silver?"
"It's been packed, in the wing."
The old lady specially instructed the maidservant to guard the door of the Ruyi Hall today, and not to allow people from other courtyards to approach, and the house where the gold and silver were stored was temporarily cleaned up, and as the door opened, a large square box filled the room.
Xin Yu estimated that there were dozens of boxes.
Gold and silver are very weighed, dozens of boxes, not to mention three carriages that can't be pulled down in one trip, even if they can be stuffed, the carriages and horses can't stand it.
"Little Lotus." Xin Yu shouted Xiaolian.
Xiaolian understood, and stepped forward to open a box casually.
The light in the wing room is not good, but when the box is opened, the white light is dazzling.
Xiaolian gasped and couldn't help but look at Xin Yu.
She knew that 600,000 taels was a lot, but it wasn't until she saw a box full of silver ingots that she could imagine what a huge sum of money it was.
This is only a box, and if all 600,000 taels of silver are packed into a box, how much will it be?
The little girl's legs were weak and a little unsteady.
Duan Shaoqing's face was annoyed: "Qingqing, can't we use other silver?"
Xin Yu pursed her lips, and her light smile had the shadow of being well-behaved in the past: "It's not that I can't trust my uncle, it's that I've never seen so much cash, and I can't help but want to open my eyes."
Duan Shaoqing took out these in order to stabilize her, and the possibility of fraud was extremely small. Of course, even if it is speculated like this, when you return to the bookstore, these cash and house deeds will have to be counted and verified.
The next three carriages waiting outside drove directly into Shaoqing's Mansion and stopped at the second gate.
Xin Yu instructed Xiaolian to follow the car and transport the silver ingots back to the east courtyard of Qingsong Bookstore.
The three carriages were ordinary-looking, and the traffic that merged into the street was not at all conspicuous. Only the guards who were responsible for carrying the boxes were shocked, secretly wondering what was in such a heavy box.
"I haven't been to Jinsheng Qianzhuang yet, can my uncle accompany me on a trip?"
Duan Shaoqing nodded with a straight face: "Yes."
Xin Yu wrapped the box containing the silver ticket and the box containing the house deed in cloth, carried the small burden and walked out as she said, "By the way, uncle, I have been busy just now, and I haven't bothered to tell you that I asked a friend to help me carry my things later. He should be waiting in the foyer now."
Of course, Duan Shaoqing knew that this was his niece, but he couldn't believe him, so he snorted coldly and didn't speak, and then saw He Qingxiao drinking tea silently in the foyer.
"He, Lord He?" Duan Shaoqing was so shocked that his voice changed.
He Qingxiao put down the teacup and stood up: "I was entrusted by Miss Kou to accompany her to do something."
"Oh, oh-" Duan Shaoqing's mind was in a mess, and he went to look at Xin Yu.
Xin Yu raised the corners of his lips at Duan Shaoqing, and handed the small burden to He Qingxiao: "I'm tired of Lord He helping me carry it."
He Qingxiao took it with a calm face.
Miss Kou looked for him and promised a reward, so it was right to carry things for Miss Kou.
Seeing that he received it so naturally, Duan Shaoqing couldn't settle down.
The niece asked He Qingxiao to carry the burden for her!
What is their relationship?
No wonder the dead girl is so rampant, this pair of dog men and women!
Disdain flashed from Duan Shaoqing's eyes, but it did not escape Xin Yu's eyes.
In this regard, she only hooked the corners of her lips.
She couldn't be clearer about what a person like Duan Shaoqing would think.
Will she care?
Bah!
Xin Yu and Duan Shaoqing rode in the same carriage, He Qingxiao rode as usual, and the three of them came to Jinsheng Qianzhuang.
Jinsheng Money Village is the largest money village in the capital, and it looks extraordinary.
He Qingxiao glanced at it and confirmed that it was a place he had never been.
Miss Kou and her uncle came to Qianzhuang together, what kind of business did they want to discuss?
Thinking of Xin Yu's three carriages that obviously dragged heavy objects away from Shaoqing's mansion, He Qingxiao's heart moved.
