Chapter Ninety-Four: People are stupid and have many shopkeepers
After a while, Li cooked the meal.
Sweet potato gnocchi soup, lard tortillas, and a plate of spicy dried radish.
Steamed a bowl of egg custard for the three small ones.
As soon as Su Bing's hand reached out to the fried browned corn tortilla, he was hit on the back of his hand by Li's chopsticks.
Su Bing didn't dare to say anything, he honestly drank two large bowls of sweet potato soup.
Su Huaiyi drank the soup by himself, and he didn't even dare to pick up the dried radish.
Su Ruiwen gave a spoonful of egg custard to Su Huaiyi.
"Master, eat~" He spoke more clearly than Su Xingxue.
Lee opens one eye and closes one. I didn't say anything.
Su Huaiyi nodded with satisfaction.
He really didn't hurt Raven in vain.
[My brother probably had the idea of beating my grandfather's wolf. 】
Su Huaiyi was stunned, and hurriedly returned the egg custard.
"Raven is good, eat it yourself, and you will be full when you drink the soup."
Su Xingxue's black and white eyes rolled left and right, and she didn't know what she thought, and she laughed again.
Liu Xia frowned, although the Su family did not have the rule of not eating and sleeping.
But it's too bad to laugh like this at the dinner table.
It seems that she is going to discipline Xingxue more.
"Knock knock~"
The visitor knocked on the courtyard door, and when he saw that everyone was looking at him, he walked in.
Also coming in were Chen Xiu and several officials.
[Why is Master Xiu here again? Su Yun's heart is glorified.
Su Huaiyi hurriedly got up to pick it up, and he arched his hand.
"Master Chen, shopkeeper Zhang."
"Huaiyi, we haven't seen each other for more than thirty years, right?" It was the shopkeeper who spoke.
He is the treasurer of the capital treasure bank.
Jubao Qian Zhuang was opened all over the Great Qin Kingdom, and the silver tickets circulating in the market were issued by it.
The people could deposit and withdraw the money in the bank, or they could exchange it for a silver ticket and carry it with them.
When you need broken silver, you can exchange it at any time at the bank.
Shopkeeper Zhang is fifty-five this year, as big as Su Huaiyi, and coincidentally, the two were born on the same day, the same month, and the same year.
He was wearing a navy blue cloud brocade robe, and his figure was a little fat.
"Shopkeeper Zhang is still unharmed, and his body is still so strong. Would you like to have something together? Su Huaiyi said with a smile.
Li recognized the shopkeeper.
What the hell the old man was hiding from her.
Why did the shopkeeper come with Master Chen, could it be that the silver ticket was of unknown origin.
She stood up, "I'll do something." ”
Su Bing also thinks the same thing, he doesn't believe that carving can earn so much money.
Shopkeeper Zhang waved his hand, "Don't bother, I have eaten with Chen Youlang on the road, your family will eat first, and then talk about business after eating." ”
Chen Xiu didn't even see it, and he didn't know who rushed to Qingshan Village overnight. The corners of his anxious mouth were filled with dense fire bubbles.
Where can Su Huaiyi eat, as soon as he saw Chen Xiu and several officials, he guessed a few points.
"Shopkeeper Zhang came this time because he couldn't trust me?"
"Huaiyi said with a smile, I came here to ask you to help palm your eyes this time." The shopkeeper smiled and didn't play dumb riddles.
He beckoned, and an official behind him walked out carrying a wooden suitcase.
He opened the wooden box, and the neatly stacked silver tickets were piled up in the box.
Su Xingxue and Su Ruiwen immediately ran over.
The two babies' eyes lit up, but they didn't rudely hold it in their hands, but they just stared at it without blinking.
"Hahaha, Huaiyi, your dragon and phoenix grandson knows money when you're so old. Not bad, not bad. It's absolutely amazing to grow up in the future! The shopkeeper Zhang praised that he was a person who deals with money, and naturally likes people who also love money.
Su Xingxue held her face in her small hands and looked at the shopkeeper Zhang with admiration.
"Mud, a lot of money."
"Hahaha~"
Shopkeeper Zhang laughed, took out a silver ingot of ten taels and bent over and stuffed it into Su Xingxue's arms.
"This grandfather gave you the meeting money. It's so smart, it's all about talent. ”
"Crab crab~" Su Xingxue grinned at the silver ingots with her teeth.
"Master, the wealth is abundant."
Su Ruiwen stepped forward and learned from the adult.
He said again with a serious face.
"Wishing you prosperity."
"Yo~ It's amazing, this word is really clear." The shopkeeper pinched Su Ruiwen's face and also gave a silver ingot of ten taels.
Su Ruiwen read it for the sake of the silver ingot, and asked the shopkeeper to pinch it with a straight face.
Shopkeeper Zhang also gave Su Yun a silver ingot.
Su Yun didn't answer, but looked at Su Huaiyi.
"Take it all, you Grandpa Zhang......"
"Ahem, Grandpa Zhang's intentions can't be disappointed." Su Huaiyi reacted and hurriedly changed his words.
[My father wants to say that people are stupid and have a lot of money! 】
Chen Xiu pursed his lips and smiled, his shoulders shaking.
People are stupid or not, I don't know, there is a lot of money.
The shopkeeper didn't hear clearly, he smiled like a Maitreya Buddha.
"Ahem, let's get down to business first." Su Huaiyi couldn't get over it in his heart.
Shopkeeper Zhang grabbed a handful of silver tickets, "Huaiyi, what is the difference between the silver tickets here?" ”
Su Huaiyi took it and looked at it carefully.
Chen Xiu's heart was complicated.
He came this time because there were a large number of fake silver tickets circulating in the market, and even the shopkeeper of Jubao Money Village did not recognize the real and fake. It was only when the money bank received the exchange of silver tickets and the number of issued were different that the shopkeeper Zhang was shocked to find that someone had exchanged fake silver tickets for silver.
This person is very cunning, and the people who exchange silver are different people, because they can't distinguish between real and fake silver tickets, and the shopkeeper has no choice but to report the case.
Qian Zhuang was originally cooperating with the imperial court, and the saint attached great importance to this matter, and sent him to investigate the matter.
What he didn't expect was that this matter was related to the Su family in Qingshan Village.
According to Zhang, Su Huaiyi carved a silver ticket printing mold for Jubao Qian Zhuang more than 30 years ago.
At that time, the two hit it off on the street, and the shopkeeper saw that Su Huaiyi's carved ornaments were exquisite, and he specially asked Su Huaiyi to carve a silver ticket printing mold for Qianzhuang.
Su Huaiyi really didn't disappoint the shopkeeper, the silver ticket mold not only fused pavilions, flowers and birds, landscapes, but also engraved with very small thousand characters around it.
These thousands of words cannot be recognized with the naked eye, and can only be seen with specific tools, and with the seal of the government, it also greatly improves the anti-counterfeiting.
Since the issuance of the new version of the silver ticket, there has been no counterfeiting in the past 30 years.
The two signed a contract, and they could only meet each other if they met a fake silver ticket, which was also to protect Su Huaiyi from being captured by people with bad intentions.
Chen Xiu glanced at Su Huaiyi and praised the other party for having such a skill.
"Shopkeeper Zhang, you see." Su Huaiyi, who was holding a specific tool, pointed to a spot on the silver ticket.
Shopkeeper Zhang took the tool when he heard this, and after looking at it for a long time, he still didn't find any difference.
Su Huaiyi said in a deep voice, "This person can imitate official seals, silver ticket molds, as well as make specific papers, as well as paint painting, etc., he is a top talent."
The counterfeiter is highly skilled, even if he can imitate the exact same official seal, but the extremely small thousand characters on this silver ticket cannot be imitated exactly the same. Everyone has their own specific way of writing, and the same is true for engraving. ”
He pointed to the word "Yu".
"Look at this word, ordinary people will seal it when they write it, but the mouth of Yu I engraved is not sealed."
"Really."
Shopkeeper Zhao knew that there were many words and they were very small, and he was dazzled if he didn't pay attention to them.
Only when you look at it at the same time that you find that the mouth is really unsealed and sealed.
He hurriedly packed up the silver ticket and stood up straight.
"Thank you Huaiyi, when this matter is dealt with, I will definitely come to the door to thank you in person."
"Alright, this is a big deal, you better catch the fake first."
After saying goodbye, Shopkeeper Zhang and Chen Xiu hurried to the capital, and now they have a way to distinguish the silver ticket, as long as they catch the person who uses the fake silver ticket, they can find the person behind the scenes.
After the person left, Li stepped forward to carry Su Huaiyi's ear.
"Carved knick-knacks? Say, I don't know what else you've done. ”
"Old woman, it's really gone."
Li Shi increased his strength, "Hmm~ Is there any?" ”
"Yes, yes. I also carved private seals for officials in the capital, and the rest is really gone. All this money was earned at that time. Su Huaiyi assured.
[My grandfather is really business-minded, is it okay to customize privately? Su Yun couldn't help but admire.
