The young man said that this was a section of house beams left by his grandfather when he was young, and that it was sawn up when his son was divided into houses and distributed to his son as a vegetable mound.

The reason why the boy carried this wood was because his grandfather was going to die, the boy heard that there was a fairy aunt in the Hou Mansion, and the fairy aunt liked good wood, which was the best wood in his family, and the boy hoped to exchange it for a peace card to bless his grandfather to survive.

The young man said sincerely, and he really didn't look like a child from a solid family.

Mo Zhenzhen walked over and looked at the wood that the young man had on his back, it was very stocky, the surface was brushed with tung oil, there was no insect moth and no decay, it was a well-preserved old material.

Look at the thickness of this wood, it does look like the beam material that the boy said.

Therefore, Mo Zhenzhen nodded, and then took out a peace card from his sleeve.

The young man was illiterate, but he had heard of the style of the Ping An brand, and his eyes lit up at the moment, and he looked at the brand with blank eyes, and did not stretch out his hand, he was waiting for Mo Zhenzhen's words.

He was a polite child.

"I like this piece of wood very much, take it."

When the young man heard this, he quickly took off the wood he was carrying on his back, and then wiped his hand on the dusty clothes, and then reached out and took the peace card.

Mo Zhenzhen asked the grandmother next to her to give the boy a gift, and before leaving, she also gave the boy a pearl-sized golden bean, which was enough to offset the money of this section of wood.

Mo Zhenzhen is so generous that she can be regarded as buying horse bones, of course, this is an act on the surface, and the secret reason is that this section of wood is indeed worth this price.

The young man's words actually did not make it clear, this is a section of old wood cut from the beams of the house, but not from the wood of the building materials, but from the old beams, and it is still cut from the beams of large households.

This kind of thing is not unusual, some people are ruined, the house is deserted, and it is normal for people to pick up some bits and pieces in the courtyard, and this section of beams came from this way.

Mo Zhenzhen spent a golden bean to buy it without suffering a loss or taking advantage, this beam is not the beam of the main house, it should be the beam of the house where the children and grandchildren of the family live, and there are more than one hanged people on it.

The ghost aura above was actually very light, but Mo Zhenzhen could still feel the change after being infected by the ghost aura of several ghosts.

As long as this thing simply removes the ghost gas on it, it is a qualified loader, and this section of wood is indeed a good wood, and it is a good material to make beads or ornaments.

It just so happens that there is not much left of the peach wood brand in Mo Zhenzhen's hand, and it is just right to use this section of wood to make some more brands.

====

The young man successfully asked for a peace card from the Hou Mansion, and after handing it over to his grandfather, his grandfather was indeed cured, and he looked much tougher than before.

The young grandfather is only in his forties, but when he was young, he was overworked and his body did not get enough nutrition, and his physical fitness was not so good when he was old, so he came to the door with any illness.

The merits in the Ping An card only had a nourishing effect on the old man, but it also reduced his pain a lot, and his body was replenished with nutrients, and people looked tough.

Such a miraculous effect is becoming more and more sought after, and the current folk have actually set off a wave of collected wood.

Of course, there are also those who have been prepared for a long time and are just waiting for an opportunity, these are some merchants or officials, they know the rules better than ordinary people, no one will knock on the main door of the Hou Mansion, they all come from the side door.

That is, it was Mo Zhenzhen who was in charge, so it didn't attract much movement, but the peace card in Mo Zhenzhen's hand was given away like flowing water, and the wood in exchange for it soon disappeared.

The key to this is still in people's eyes, and then soon, Mo Zhenzhen was called by Mo Houye.

It's just that Mo Zhenzhen, who was taking inventory, didn't want to deal with Mo Houye at this time, so she directly refused.

The little guy who came to pass the word was waiting by Mo Houye's side, and after hearing Mo Zhenzhen's casual refusal, he was still a little incredible, and asked repeatedly to make sure.

"Miss, Master Hou is looking for you."

"I know, I'm not going." Mo Zhenzhen impatiently counted the numbers on the account book in her heart, and then found that there were many inconsistencies in these accounts.

The three old housewives didn't take these accounts when they were in charge of the house before, because they knew very well that they were all bad debts.

Mo Zhenzhen knew and didn't want to care, after all, she was here to do the task, not to be in charge of the Hou Mansion.

But now that this task is going to become a long-term task, the Mo family's mess still needs to be taken care of, so she began to take stock of the Mo family's accounts.

This is not a surprise if you don't know it, the step-wife has been in charge of the house for many times in the books, jump out of the fraud and calculate, and three or four thousand silver will disappear out of thin air every month.

You don't have to think about where the money went, it must be the old lady and the lady who used it to subsidize her mother's family.

These accounts still have to be figured out, how much is subsidized, and how much is the deficit in the Hou Mansion.

Speaking of this, Mo Zhenzhen felt tired, the step-wife and Mrs. may really have no brains, people make fake accounts at least the books are flat, and the final number is the same as the inventory.

But these two ladies made false accounts, not to mention that there were problems in the books, and there were also problems with the inventory.

I don't know if these two ladies are not good or the accounts of the Hou Mansion are not good, anyway, there are holes here in the Hou Mansion, if you really want to run the Hou Mansion well, these holes have to be filled.

The step-wife has 'lived' for more than 200 years and has been in charge of the home for more than 200 years, and this bad debt has also existed for more than 200 years.

After all, there are still a lot of dead accounts in it, which means that two or more accounts are not matched together, and the person who recorded them at the time is dead.

Fortunately, Mo Zhenzhen is not the kind of person who is more serious, what she needs is to find out what else is in the Hou Mansion, not to know where those things have gone.

Speaking of this, Mo Zhenzhen couldn't help but sigh.

She knew how many families there were in the Prime Minister's Mansion (she had also been a family for a while), and it was really a warehouse full of gold and silver, and all kinds of warehouses were lined up, which were full of precious treasures.

According to the ancient rites, Mo Xiang's 'eldest son' took seventy percent, and the remaining thirty percent was divided equally among the other children.

In other words, the Hou Mansion accounted for the lion's share, and Mo Zhenzhen looked into the treasury again, and there were only some bits and pieces left.

Mo Xiang looked at Mo Zhenzhen with a smile while taking inventory, sighed, and took a sip of tea (conjured up), Mo Xiang opened his mouth very indifferently.

"It's just something outside the body, so why bother."
