Happy Couple - Chapter 1377
On New Year’s Eve, the Zhao family delivered 30000 cotton padded clothes to the Imperial City as scheduled. From that day on, the Zhao family’s cotton padded clothes became famous in the north. Before the 15th of the first month, the cotton padded clothes workshop received more than ten orders, all from the surrounding cities. However, according to orange statistics, if we continue to do so, the profit of the cotton padded clothes workshop will catch up with Taoyuanju one day!
Qiuli has been away from home for a long time. She never thought that in just seven years, but orange will make the capital’s business prosperous, and even compare the base camp of Xinghua village.
She sat in Ke orange’s study, holding a roll of books, and was stunned. She murmured: “three younger sisters! You’re a fairy! So much silver Have you cashed it all? ”
Can orange smile to shake head: “change what silver note! The second sister knows that I always like real gold and silver. To tell you the truth, six out of ten are snowflakes and silver
Qiuli asked: “so, is there still 40% silver?”
Can orange shake his head: “the other 30% is gold, the last less than 10% is silver.”
Qiuli said: “so much silver, do you have it in the bank?”
But orange said, “is it still cash in the bank? Of course not. To tell you the truth, I’ve hidden all the silver. ”
Qiuli was surprised: “are you hiding?” Look around, “where are you hiding?”
Can orange mysterious way: “you come with me.” He put the account book in the drawer, locked it, and led her into his room.
After entering the door, Qiuli looked left and right. She couldn’t find the hiding place of the silver. She asked her, “where’s the silver? Why not? ”
Can orange bolt the door, smile: “urgent what, you come with me.” Walking to the front of the wardrobe, he still operated as before. At last, he opened the bottom plate and said, “we’ll see the real seal in the cellar, please!”
Qiuli went down the steps suspiciously, and saw her pull up the bottom plate to cover up, so that no one would break in and see through the mechanism. She said with a smile, “what are you doing? It’s mysterious, but it’s the cellar. There are several in the second uncle’s house, but there are a lot of good wine. ”
Can orange way: “where come so much nonsense, you come down with me quickly.” Then he picked up the candlestick in his hand and lit all the lights around.
When all the candlesticks were lit, the whole cellar was as bright as day. Qiuli is too surprised to close her chin, because the cellar is as big as five bedrooms! And they are full of boxes, some with lids, others without lids. The boxes without lids are full of white silver ingots. You don’t have to guess, the boxes with lids must be yellow and white.
Qiuli murmured: “this How much money does it cost? ”
But orange said: “you don’t know that I widened the cellar the year before last. It was counted once the year before last, at least 12 million. Last year, this year’s accounts have not yet been settled. There is only one approximate figure. ” After thinking about it, he said, “about three million. Last year, because we built a new granary and spent a lot of money this year, it would be a little unsatisfactory.”
“Ah Qiuli screamed, almost cut the cellar, “my God! Thirteen million taels – no, third sister. My head is a little dizzy. Help me to sit down
Orange can quickly help her sit down, concerned to ask: “second sister, are you OK, you?”
Qiuli took a deep breath several times, and her face returned to normal. She murmured, “I said, third sister, what did you do after I left? This silver How did they all fly into our common people’s home like the Yan in front of the old Wang Xie hall? ”
But orange said: “nothing! It’s just a farm, a restaurant, a jewelry store, an oil factory and a warehouse. Now there’s a cotton padded garment workshop. Well, that’s all for the time being. No, there are also weaving workshops, clothing stores and farms in my hometown. That’s all. By the way, there’s also Wansu’s fleet. He’s the big leader. He’s been going back and forth twice a year since the year before last, at least 12 million taels. ”
Qiuli asked: “jewelry line? Is it the jewelry store that Qiulan is in charge of? How did it come about? ”
But orange clapped his hands and said with a smile, “speaking of jewelry, I have something good for you.” Then he took out the key, opened a black iron box more than one person high, rummaged, took out a pearl crown, and said with a smile, “this crown, four of our sisters, one of our mother and one of our aunts, when you get married with Dawei’s elder brother, you will be surprised!”
Qiuli asked, “is this something from the jewelry industry?”
But orange shook his head: “no, longan pearls are not only expensive but also rare. You see, this crown is inlaid with 108 South pearls. It’s very valuable. How many people can afford it? Wan Su brought it back from the state of fan many years ago. There are six of them. It’s hard to get a good life. How can they sell them? No jewelry business! Jewelry stores sell gems, pearls, corals, handkerchiefs, glass Jadeites, and so on. There are also excellent pieces. Not a few jewels are worth thousands of taels of silver. Well, many officials and wives come to buy them. ”
Qiuli gritted her teeth and said, “Mrs. Guan, these officials will have their own pockets filled! The salary is only a few hundred taels a year. How dare you buy a thousand taels of precious stones! Teach me how to believe that this is not the cream of the people who have been ransacked? ”
Can orange way: “who say not! Alas, not to mention this, what we can do is to help the poor people more. By the way, second sister, I have a ruby crown and an emerald crown. Which one do you like? You choose one. ” Then he turned and took out the other two jewels.Under the candlelight, the Jewel Crown’s bright pearls are flowing and lingering, almost blinding Qiuli’s eyes like autumn water. She gazed at it blankly, shook her head and said, “I don’t want any of them. These things can’t be eaten as food. Wearing them on my head will only make my neck ache. What do I want to do?”
Can orange way: “come on, you, I don’t know you, we are sisters, you with me polite what?”
Qiuli was embarrassed and laughed: “these two jewel crowns must have been given to you by Wansu alone, so I won’t covet them. Well, I’ll have a pearl crown. ”
But orange said, “what’s the difference between mine and yours? You know we’ve been together since we were little. You and I spend more time together than we do with elder sister and Qiulan. Do you remember when the farm started? At that time, you and I ran around every day, visiting customers, taking orders and so on. To be honest, I can’t hold on without you. ”
After a pause, he continued, “our relationship doesn’t change just because you went to the northwest. Do you understand? I know what you’re thinking, so this cellar is only known by Niang and you except for me and WAN su. Of course, I don’t tell my elder sister and Qiulan because I can’t trust them. The reason why I don’t tell them is that they are not the same as us. They are suitable for a stable life and teaching their husband and children.
But we are not the same. We are more ambitious and persistent. We are more able to take risks and withstand attacks than they are. I’ve thought about it. Our family is at its best now, and WAN Su has recently won the title of “king of ships.”. What is the king of ships? This year, he added 12 new ships! As soon as the ship number of Hangzhou port blows, twenty ships will sail in all directions like arrows. How spectacular the scene is! Countless silks, porcelains and irons were carried to the cabins, crossing mountains and seas to the kingdom of fan. How much wealth did they bring us? Get wealth at the same time, also attracted countless people covet and suspicion. To be honest, I have made money in recent years, but I am also worried that I will be framed one day. Especially this time I offended the Feng family and Yan Family… ”
Qiuli asked: “who is the Feng family? Which is Yan Fu? What’s going on? ”
