The next day, Mama Rong summoned all the servants over, and after some narration, she issued an order to tidy up all the warehouses on the grounds that there were rats near the storehouse yesterday and that they had not been cleaned up for several years and might be damp.

"That's what happened. Mama Rong took out her demeanor as a big steward, "Seeing that it is a day of heavy snowfall, yesterday a lady said: The treasury of the house is carefully checked, if there is a place where the wood is rusty, and there are rats in the beam, let someone repair it quickly, lest the snow fall, the house will collapse!

Yesterday, Mama Fang transported ten truckloads of things with a word, and swaggered out of the house, this matter is investigated, she, the chief manager, Mama can't escape from a mismanagement, and this matter must be done well!

Yesterday there were not enough people, and today there are her people up and down in this house, really tearing it up, she is not afraid of the surname Fang, it is the grandmother, she is not afraid, the uncle does not wait to see the grandmother. It's just that the key to this warehouse is in the hands of the eldest grandmother Tong Xiaochun, and no one gave it, no matter how powerful she is, she can't grab it hard at this time, so she can only persuade to add a little fox and fake tiger power.

Mama Rong thought about what to say all the way, and walked all the way to Tong Xiaochun's residence with a few old mothers with big shoulders and round waists behind her!

Stepping into the house, and after walking a few more steps, Mama Rong saw Tong Xiaochun lying on the bed reading a book. She walked slowly closer. After a light song, he first saluted Tong Xiaochun, and then he said: "Grandma is in good condition today? Yesterday several rats died on the edge of the warehouse, and one of our nurses looked down and found that the wood where the dead rats were rotten, and even poisonous mushrooms had grown! After reporting to Madame, Madame said that she wanted us to repair the warehouse, and the old slave came here to ask Grandma for the key to the warehouse!"

"You're talking about the treasury where I put my dowry? I have already seen it when I laid the dowry! There is no rotten wood there, so you don't need to look at it!"

"Grandma, it's better to take a look! If the treasury where the dowry is stacked really leaks rain and snow, and the dowry of the eldest grandmother is damp, I'm afraid that the in-laws' wife will say something unpleasant again! This is what the old lady meant!"

After turning a page of the book, Tong Xiaochun raised his head and said: "I let people see the warehouse yesterday! You mean the ten carts of things that were pulled out yesterday! That's what the husband meant, and he exchanged 40,000 taels of silver tickets, and you see it's in this box." ”

After speaking, Tong Xiaochun patted the box in his hand.

"Forty thousand taels!" Mama Rong exclaimed, her chin was a little dislocated for a while, and she had to hold her chin with her hand, her left chin has been out of joint, which is also the wisdom tooth diaphragm, since she has wisdom teeth, I don't know how, her mouth is too big and it is a little difficult to fit! But to pull out her and reluctant to pay the money, this delay, is more than 20 years.

Regardless of where Tong Xiaochun's hand is, Mama Rong finished holding her chin, just staring straight at the box, Mama Rong swallowed her saliva unconsciously, and then looked at Xiaochun and said: "Look at what Grandma said, my check of the treasury has nothing to do with this, since Grandma doesn't want to, I'll report to Mrs. first, and then say, right?"

Tong Xiaochun nodded and stopped talking.

Out of the house, Mama Rong's steps quickened and she didn't care about the people following her, and rushed all the way back to Madame.

When the lady heard the report, she also exclaimed: "Forty thousand taels?"

"No, madam! That's 40,000 taels! I don't know what the uncle wants to do?

"I'm a woman, this is 40,000 taels, what do you let the old body do? Otherwise, let's ask the master first!" said the lady, putting away her surprised expression, picking up the Buddhist beads in her hand and pinching them.

"But master-" Mama Rong had a toothache, if the old man still needed her to play Mrs., and so did the uncle, how did he do the work of the eldest grandmother, this kind of thing is unreasonable, right?

"By the way, since she has changed it to a silver ticket, you can ask what it is for? If you can't use it up, see if you can put it in my storehouse first, my storehouse is stronger than the others, and you can use the best cedars when you built it! This is also her filial piety to me!" said Madame's eyes, which began to glow, and became brighter and brighter.

"But what about the big grandmother?"

"Since she is willing to give it to my son, she should naturally be willing to give it to me, and now she is a little filial, and it should have been like this a long time ago!" Sun said, his eyes flickering.

"Yes, ma'am. Mama Rong nodded, Madame is too accustomed to the uncle! As soon as she heard that it was the uncle, she actually let it go! As for the dowry, when the family was in the most difficult time, she didn't see Madame take out her dowry, so why did Madame change here with the eldest grandmother? Mama Rong thought about it and felt that she still didn't want to! There are few discerning people in this family.

The old man who knew the matter was also shocked when he heard the number, and deliberately came out of the drunken flower building to find the uncle, Yao Zhankun quickly explained, "Ten thousand taels to dot the yamen, the main reason is that I am afraid that the dot will be small and useless." The other 10,000 taels is to try to take it out of her hand, use it to renovate the house, and use the rest to return to the family's account, and when the money comes, we will not have to worry about my father-in-law and their family at all in the future! Tell my mother that this silver will not reach her treasury first. But since the woman exchanged 40,000 taels, the other 20,000 taels, I just turned around and asked her what she meant. ”

Mama Rong, who knew what the uncle meant, also nodded, but she was a little suspicious of money making money, after all, ten years ago, there were all silver money and shops in the Baron's Mansion, but now, it is not easy to find people who can make money, and the same is true for people who can manage it, but she can't say this clearly.

Yao Zhankun knew that Tong Xiaochun had changed the silver ticket, so he immediately took his own account room, came to Tong Xiaochun's bedroom, took the 10,000 taels that were dotted, and then returned the other 10,000 taels to the account in the house.

After handing over the 10,000 taels in the renovated mansion to the account room and letting him go back, Yao Zhankun counted the 10,000 taels of silver tickets he wanted to use, while staining his saliva, and asked about the other extra ones, Xiaochun said softly: "I'm afraid that my illness is slow, and this dowry has gone to 20,000 taels." In the future, there will still be more places to use money, and this extra silver ticket is to see what shops are making money, and there are more inputs. ”

"When you buy a shop, I have to keep an eye on it. After speaking, Yao Zhankun put the silver ticket of 10,000 taels into a small sandalwood box prepared in advance, then kicked it into his arms, and then strode away with his sleeves outstretched. As soon as he went out, a figure turned out from under the bed, this figure was a woman who looked to be in her early twenties, quite tall, with slender legs, a graceful figure, a fiery red suit, and a sword pinned to her waist, but her face was covered, and she couldn't see clearly.

"This matter will trouble the woman!" said Koharu and took out the three thousand taels of silver tickets that had been prepared a long time ago.

According to the rules of our Red Line Building, I will accept your deposit of 3,000 taels, don't worry! When the time comes, whether you want to merge and separate, or anything else, we will help you do it well. Holding the thirty silver tickets of one hundred taels handed over by Tong Xiaochun in her arms, Ji Chunmei followed out after speaking, but she had already quietly followed Yao Zhankun......

Yao Zhankun naturally knew to be careful, he came out in a carriage today, thinking that he would hurry to the mansion, see Master Qian, and put the silver on it, and it would be easy! Just when he was thinking, the carriage in front of him suddenly stopped, and the curtain was opened, but the road in front of him was blocked by human traffic!

"What's going on?" asked Yao Zhankun impatiently.

Mafu Xiaoding hurriedly replied: "Uncle, today is the day of our Oiran Dabi in Youzhou, the famous prostitutes of the Qinglou, and the Qingqi people are waiting for this day to snatch the name of the new Oiran, there are many pedestrians on this road, I'm afraid I can't get up quickly." ”

Looking at the increasing number of people on the street, Yao Zhankun suddenly realized that maybe his carriage might be on the way of the Oiran procession, "which way can be bypassed?"

"Master, you can go around, but the time is a little tight. Xiao Ding replied considering the time when the uncle arrived at the yamen every day.

"It doesn't matter!" Although Master Qian hinted at his silver, but today he went to find Master Qian without contacting him in advance, maybe it would be safer to wait, but Yao Zhankun didn't want to wait for a moment.

"Lord Qian won't go to see the Oiran, will he?" Yao Zhankun suddenly realized that he might have been in too much of a hurry to get the silver today, and he didn't even inquire about Master Qian's location in advance!

"Xiao Ding, go to the Drunken Flower Building!" Yao Zhankun decided to go to the Drunken Flower Building first.

"Drunken Flower Building, uncle, that place ——。 ”

"Let you go!" Yao Zhankun's voice was much louder, his face was a little impatient, although he knew that he was too eager! But he still couldn't wait, he thought about the news he had inquired about since he entered the Yamen office, at this time, Master Qian should be very likely to be in the Zuihualou, and the Qingqi person in the Zuihualou is the favorite of Master Qian! Master Qian may not be in the government or at home today, he must be helping the Qingqi people compete for the Oiran of Youzhou City, and cheer for her!

Seeing Yao Zhankun's impatience, the horseman Xiaoding could only quickly wave the horsewhip, but the way to the drunken flower building was already crowded with people, although the officials and assistants who maintained law and order tried to leave a passage for the Oiran to travel, but it was not their carriage that could get to the front, and it was bound to walk a long way at that time.
