After a while, Cui Wen, the head of the household who was holding a wooden stick, rushed out angrily, shouting as he came out.

"What the hell! Didn't you pay more than half of your salaries some time ago? Still coming?

The imperial court doesn't have to run anymore? The people don't need relief?

I know every day that I want to be paid, but I haven't given you any food?

I told you that now the court is short of money, so I will give food first, and I will give as much food as I want, and I will ask for it!

If you don't have a salary, you have to kill one, see if you want to cut off the dozens of catties of meat from the old man, and see if you can exchange it for some silver! ”

While scolding angrily, Cui Wen rushed out, but as soon as he came out, he looked at the familiar and somewhat unfamiliar faces of these dozens of big shoulders and round waists, and he was stunned for a while.

Li Xiaowu scratched his head and saluted Cui Shangshu with a smile:

"Lord Shangshu, we're back!"

With a bang, the wooden stick in Cui Wen's hand fell to the ground, and he hurriedly rubbed his eyes with his hands, that's right! This voice and this face are the right squire who I sent out.

But this figure~

Damn, the old man obviously sent out a group of scholars, why did he come back with a group of Qiu Ba?!

Is the old man old? Bad eyes?

I rubbed it vigorously, but it was still exactly the same, and it didn't change back to the appearance I remembered.

Cui Wen was dumbfounded.

Turning his head and taking care of himself, he walked to the yamen of the household department, and muttered in a low voice as he walked:

"It's bad, I can't stay up late to approve the paperwork so late in the future, and now I'm hallucinating, and if it goes on like this, the old man has to go back to support the elderly, alas......

This old man of the Zhao family is really waiting enough, waiting for the old and waiting for the young, and the little ones are too lazy to do any work every day, but the old man is tired.

Damn, the resignation excerpt that went up yesterday is gone, and the designation is burned again, and I don't know how to return it if I don't agree, and the fire is also burned for the old man, which can save some coal, a waste...... Wasted ......"

While muttering to Cui Wen, he lowered his head and walked towards the household yamen.

When the officials next to him heard his muttering, they hurriedly lowered their heads and pretended not to hear, and kept slandering in their hearts, don't say anything to your old man!

You're old, and you can't be promoted, or an old minister, if you say something, you just say it, and the above won't care about you, but we can't say or listen to this, aren't you harming us?

Li Xiaowu, who was waiting for his own Shangshu to ask questions, saw his own Shangshu turn around and left, and he was stunned, and after a while, seeing that Cui Shangshu was almost out of sight, he suddenly reacted, and hurriedly took three steps and two steps to catch up with Cui Shangshu.

"Lord Shangshu! Lord Shangshu! You don't see the hallucination, it's really us! It's really us! ”

Li Xiaowu grabbed Cui Shangshu, but he forgot how much strength he had now, and Cui Shangshu, who was walking forward with his head down, was almost dragged to the ground directly by him.

But even if he didn't fall to the ground, it would be a stumbling moment, if Li Xiaowu hadn't reacted in time and hurriedly dragged it with his hand, maybe Cui Shangshu would have been able to take sick leave and go back to rest today.

"I'm going to die! If you want to kill the old man, hello, you can say it as soon as you get on the throne! ”

This pull also brought Cui Wen back to his senses, confirming that he was not dreaming, but really those readers he sent out, and they really became a group of people like Qiu Ba.

Rubbing his old waist, Cui Wen turned around and glared at Li Xiaowu angrily, and then asked:

"What's going on here? How did it come to this? It's insulting! ”

Feeling the gaze of his own Shangshu, Li Xiaowu said helplessly: "Lord Shangshu, you don't know how rich those monks are, and the treasury that you just go in is full of silver everywhere.

You also know that we are used to being poor, and we can't control the silver when we see it, and we are afraid that others will steal it, after all, this is all the silver of our household department, in order to prevent it from being stolen by others, each ingot of silver is brought back by colleagues with their own hands.

There is a lot of silver, and I have practiced this body by carrying it. ”

Li Xiaowu didn't dare to tell the truth, he was afraid that his own book would not be able to accept it.

Where can they practice this body of flesh by moving silver, and they also have to fight against the door of the temple by hugging the wood, and after entering, they will fight with those monks, and ask the treasury and so on.

It's just that these people are also officials of the household department, and doing this kind of thing is a bit of a loss of identity, so I'm embarrassed to say it.

However, he didn't know that the good things they did had already been told to Cui Wen by Zhao Jun, and when he heard his answer here to avoid the important and light, Cui Wen responded with a sneer on his face, but he didn't expose it.

Their behavior is indeed a shame for a scholar!

While being helped to walk towards Li Xiaowu and their team, Cui Wen asked casually:

"How much silver did you collect this time?"

Li Xiaowu also replied casually:

"Not much, not much, only more than 13 million taels of silver, and some jewelry that can't afford to lose due to lack of manpower, calligraphy, paintings, and antiques that are not easy to value."

Cui Wen nodded subconsciously: "Oh, it turns out that it's more than 13 million...... Ten thousand?! ”

Cui Wen suddenly reacted to whether this number was a little wrong, and subconsciously asked again.

Li Xiaowu didn't realize that something was wrong with his own book, and nodded very sincerely:

"That's right, it's Wan.

Not much. ”

The next moment, Cui Shangshu immediately stared at dozens of carts of large boxes with wide eyes, his eyes lit up, and he muttered:

"More than 13 million taels! Suck ...... It's been sent, and now I've sent it!

This year, I finally don't lose my mother's money and have a balance! ”

Cui Shangshu is almost in tears, since he became Shangshu, the household department has lost money every year, and has been losing money every year, God knows how much pressure he has been under!

This year, I can finally see that there is money left!

All of a sudden, my back doesn't hurt anymore, and my legs don't ache anymore

Cui Laoshangshu directly shook off Li Xiaowu, who was supporting him, and rushed towards the convoy!

Feel free to open one!

Ooh!

It's all silver!

Open another one!

Ooh!

It's all gold!

Open another one!

Ooh!

It's all kinds of jewelry!

Open another one!

Ooh! Or gold!

……

Cui Lao Shangshu opened a box and breathed heavily.

A pair of eyes narrowed with a smile.

A group of household officials, Li Xiaowu looked at it with a smile, because they were like this when they first saw it.

The others, who were far away and couldn't see clearly, looked at their own Shangshu smiling like this, and they were confused.

Finally, after opening more than a dozen boxes in a row, Cui Shangshu was satisfied!

Take a long breath of relief and raise your hand!

"Let's go! All of them were sent to the warehouse of the household department, and all of them were honestly registered!

I can tell you not to think about any crooked thoughts, since Your Majesty has allowed us to bring it back and enter directly, it must have a bottom, and you can see it at a moment.

If something happens because of your greed, then don't blame the old man for not warning you. ”

"Now! All the money for the old man! ”
