One or two branches of plum outside the bamboo

Chapter 12

Yan Maochun's annual exam is coming, so he can't avoid going out to take on the momentum. Once he passes the exam, he will inevitably walk around and give gifts.

A thousand guan is not a small amount of money for ordinary people, but for those who are truly aristocratic families, they are afraid that even a vase, a pair of calligraphy and painting, and an absolute book in their warehouse can't compare.

Yan Qingzhi never underestimated anyone, so when he opened his mouth, he used the knife at the limit that Old Man Yan was unbearably painful but could definitely take out.

Sure enough, not long after Mr. Zhou entered, two [-]- or [-]-year-old girls in ultramarine blue padded jackets walked out of the yard carrying a wooden box.

The little girl is very fair, and the material of the padded jacket is better than what the Yan family and brothers wore back then.

The old lady Yan pulled her face and followed behind the two of them dirty, as if she was hiding so deeply that she could come out without taking any money.

Yan Qingzhi knew what she was thinking, she raised her head slightly to look at the sun that came out, the corners of her mouth seemed to be smiling, as if something was about to start!
Old man Yan's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes fell on the dawdling Zhou Shi.

He knew that the Zhou family must have inquired about the conversation between him and Yan Qingzhi just now, and must have sent someone to the county seat when raising money in the yard.

But that doesn't help in its current form.

Yan Qingzhi was not afraid of them delaying time, but he was afraid that Yan Qingzhi was smiling one second, and suddenly bumped his head on the door of his house the next.

"What are you dawdling about! Hurry up!"

Old Zhou's face drooped, and he glanced at Old Man Yan unhappily, but seeing that the other party was really angry, his body could not help shrinking, he subconsciously took two steps, and took out the silver note with a painful face, Old Man Yan took it After nodding, he handed it over to Yan Qingzhi with no strange expression.

Yan Qingzhi also checked it carefully. It was indeed according to what she said. They were all Da Zhaotong treasure tickets from last year. They identified them again according to the identification method in memory. Inside a guess.

After confirming that there was no problem with the banknote, Yan Qingzhi stood in front of the box.

The box is not big or small, but it can be seen from the performance that it requires two people to lift it out. The weight of the box is not light.

The common currency of Da Zhao is only copper coins. Although gold and silver are also hard currencies, transactions, deposits and withdrawals... can only be calculated in terms of copper coins.

The one here is always a thousand wen, wearing a long string of red rope.

There are three kinds of copper coins officially stipulated. One is flat money, which is relatively small and light, not much bigger than an adult's fingernail.

The other is called Daqian, also known as Shengbao, which is larger than flat money and has four characters on it, which are Nianzhi and Shengbao. This one can be used as five coins, that is, five coins, which is always two hundred big coins.

The last one is quite special. It is called Yuanbao. It is also a copper coin with an outer circle and an inner square, but it is larger than what you see on the market. I heard that the largest one is the same as a plate. It has a standard hollow carving on it, which is very beautiful.

In addition to being exquisite, there will also be four characters "to be a certain ingot" engraved on it. You can engrave any words on it for how much money you want. According to the standard, you can be a hundred, a thousand and a million.

In other words, a copper coin can be worth a hundred, a thousand or ten thousand...

However, this kind of ingot is a symbol of identity. It is the first batch of money when Da Zhao Qianzhuang starts making money every year. There are only one thousand of each type each year. Most of them will be rewarded by the emperor, and only a small part will flow into the people.

This thing is rare. Even if it flows into the people, most of it is collected. No one thinks that their own ingots are too few, and very few people really use it as money!
Of course, old man Yan wouldn't give Yan Qingzhi any ingots, he just gave her a bunch of stringed flat money.

The flat money is about three to five grams a piece, and 100 pieces come down to more than [-] catties. It is the heaviest distribution method among the [-] guan coins. I didn't see that the two little girls were struggling to carry it.

Yan Qingzhi stood in front of the box. The box was a heavy-looking wooden box that was about to reach her chest. It was painted red, and the material could not be seen for a while.

There was no lock on it, Yan Qingzhi raised his hand and pushed open the box. Most of the room was empty. I don't know if there was money left by the Zhou family, or if she deliberately made things difficult for Yan Qingzhi to move a big box out for her.

But for Yan Qingzhi, these are small things.

Her expression didn't change at all. After all, modern money is used to it. When she first arrived here, it was difficult for the currency here to bring her excitement.

But her performance made old man Yan feel that his idea was right!

Although he heard that whoever belonged to whoever belonged to someone who committed suicide for the sake of something big, he would feel extraordinarily disdain.

But he has to admit that it is indeed a terrifying thing to be an enemy of such people sometimes. They don't even care about their own lives, how else do you want to deal with them!
Yan Qingzhi quickly counted the copper coins inside, and after confirming that it was correct, she smiled and looked at the old man Yan.

The old man was also indifferent, looking at her with cold eyes.

"How can you take such a big box?"

Yan Qingzhi smiled even deeper.

"I think someone in your family is going to the county seat! Why don't you take me on a ride!"

She spoke candidly, as if she didn't know that those who went to the county were trying to arrest her and Yan Qingzhu.

He also clarified the relationship with the old man Yan in one sentence, which made the other party feel even more uncomfortable.

Sometimes it's like this. When people take the initiative to eliminate something they don't need, someone they don't like, or a job they don't like to do, they will only feel relieved!
But on the other hand, even if you don't want it, you don't want yourself to be the one to be eliminated.

The old man Yan's eyes darkened, and for some reason, he suddenly felt a little unsure in his heart.

Obviously it's just to arrest two children, why do you feel that there is no bottom! ?

He suppressed the sudden thought in his heart, turned around and explained it to Zhou.

Yan Qingzhi had long been convinced that the old man would not refuse, so he stood there carelessly, watching someone come out to carry Yan Maoxia in, and watched many people come out with things to clean up the mess.

Old man Yan was testing Yan Qingzhi's reaction.

But Yan Qingzhi didn't seem to care, and even took the time to instruct the people next to her to clean up the filth under her feet.

Many of these people had bullied the original body before. They dared not to speak out when they were angry.

Zhou Shi looked at Old Man Yan again, and then there was no more!
Yan Qingzhi seemed to be deliberately taking revenge on those people, embarrassing them both deliberately and unintentionally, until the door was fluttered open by the door and the threshold was lifted, and she let go of the servants around her and raised her head towards Look in the direction of the door.

Two carriages were pulled out, one had no shed, and three long-term workers were sitting on it, while the other looked much more luxurious.

The two handlebars who were driving the car both had red eyes and teary eyes, and there were still traces of bruises on their faces. It was obvious that they had been greeted by Yan Qingzhi just now, and their eyes were all bad!

Seeing that no one spoke, Yan Qingzhi commanded rudely.

"Please help me carry this box into the car!"

What I said was to beg you, but her demeanor and actions didn't bother others with respect at all, and they were full of indifference.

Several people pretended not to hear the slightest movement, until the old man coughed lightly and explained again, they reluctantly lifted the box, and when they were about to carry it to the carriage without a carport, they were caught. Yan Qingzhi called to stop.

"Don't, don't! Put that car on!"

Hearing this, the faces of the Yan family's masters turned ugly.

This carriage is what they usually travel and ride in. If they usually say Qingzhi to sit, they will grit their teeth and endure it!

But today's Yan Qingzhi...

It was dung and blood, and no matter how careful she was, she inevitably poured it on her body. Seeing that her ill-fitting ragged leather jacket had already been stained with a lot of stains, the pungent smell was strong against the wind. smell!

"master……"

Zhou Shi's face changed immediately, and the old man Yan's face was also sinking, but he didn't say anything and let the box be carried on the carriage.

Yan Qingzhi didn't get in the car, but stood beside the carriage and waited for a while, until Yan Maoqiu, who gave her directions, ran back.

Yan Maoqiu saw Yan Qingzhi with an ugly expression, so he went straight to the old man Yan and gave the two paths to the old man.

Old man Yan looked at it carefully, and then waved him to Yan Qingzhi.

Yan Qingzhi was not afraid at all. She took it over and looked up and down. Lu Yin was all standard. She had seen it when she inquired about the news a few days ago, and it was not difficult to identify it.

She understands in her heart that whether it is Lu Yin or a bank note, the possibility of the Yan family cheating is not high. In the old man Yan's heart, she has already regarded her as a dead person, so he will not let his wife and children let her seize the handle on this. Made her suspicious.

After putting away the road guide, Yan Qingzhi turned around and climbed onto the carriage. Because of his short stature and hard and big clothes, the posture of getting on the carriage was extremely unsightly, which attracted another round of scolding and scolding around him.

But Yan Qingzhi didn't care, she just climbed up so carelessly, stomping her feet back and forth inside, looking like she didn't know anything.

The inside of the carriage is relatively closed, and it is not a problem to sit three or five people. In the right place, there is her box containing twenty pieces, and Yan Qingzhi makes a fuss in it for a while.

For a while sitting on the seat on one side, it seemed to be testing the softness, and then jumping to the other side to lift the cotton curtain hanging on the window, stretched out his head to look out and slapped, making the handlebar style choking, but Don't dare to say a word.

Seeing Yan Qingzhi getting into the car, the old man called Yan Maoqiu over and explained some things.

It is nothing more than following Yan Qingzhi, and he must find Yan Qingzhu. After he finds it, he will not take it back. Just bring the money back. …

Yan Maoqiu listened carefully, nodding from time to time, the voices of the two were very low, and no one seemed to hear except each other.

Yan Qingzhi on the carriage didn't care at all, and didn't stop for a while, jumping for a while, jumping up for a while, the annoying horse was a little unhappy, and Yan Maoqiu came with orders.

He didn't hide his stern expression, and strode to the side of the carriage, pulling up the cotton curtain on the carriage to get on the carriage...

The appearance of the golden sword of the big horse, I don't know what kind of atmosphere it brought me into.

pity……

"Gang... vomit..."
