Ci Jinzhi

Xiao Lian stepped forward and opened a box casually.

The square box was full of silver, and the flickering light blinded the shopkeeper Hu and the boy.

Before the two of them came back to their senses, Xiao Lian opened another box.

As the boxes were opened one by one, the shock in the eyes of shopkeeper Hu and Liu Zhou deepened.

"These—" Shopkeeper Hu breathed heavily, and the outstretched hand seemed to be not his own. "These boxes are all silver?"

Xinyou smiled and nodded.

The old shopkeeper grabbed Xin You's sleeve, and said bitterly, "Boss, we can't do anything that breaks the law!"

Yidong's earning power is enough to be down-to-earth!
Xiao Lian chuckled: "What did the shopkeeper say, this is our girl's money."

"My boss's money?" Shopkeeper Hu looked at Xin You blankly.

Seeing that the old shopkeeper was terrified, Xin You smiled and said, "Well, it's my Kou family's property, which was brought to Shaoqing's mansion when I went to Beijing. Now that I've grown up, I asked my grandmother to get some back."

"Some..." Liu Zhou lifted his chin.

This is a small silver mountain, the owner calls it something!
"Shopkeeper, Liu Zhou, please both of you to check it."

Shopkeeper Hu and Liu Zhou looked at each other, and walked into the "Silver Mountain" in a daze.

"Girl, Shitou came to tell that Mr. He is looking for you." Jiang Shuang came to report.

Xin You guessed that Mr. He must have come for the reward, so she walked to the front.

Although He Qingxiao's heart was greatly impacted by the 6000 taels, he still had a calm look on his face.When Xin You came in, what she saw was a picture of a handsome young man in a silent trance.

He Qingxiao turned around when he heard footsteps, and asked because there was a stone, "Is it convenient for Miss Kou to talk?"

Xin You took him into the reception room, poured tea and asked with a smile, "Master He has gone and returned, what's the matter?"

He Qingxiao took out the small box and put it in front of Xinyou.

"I didn't expect Miss Kou's reward to be 6000 taels. I really can't accept such a lot of money."

"Why can't you accept it? Didn't you agree to pay Baiyi to Mr. He?" Xin You tilted her head slightly, full of puzzlement.

"But Baiyi—"

How could one hundred one be 6000 taels!
"Baiyi is exactly 6000 taels, and the money I got this time is 60." Xin You said lightly.

He Qingxiao: "..." So it wasn't Miss Kou who deliberately gave more, but she got 60 taels!

It took a while to calm down, and He Qingxiao looked at Xinyou with complicated eyes: "6000 taels is really too much, I just walked around with Miss Kou, I deserve it, please take it back, Miss Kou."

Xin You pushed the small box back: "In my opinion, 6000 taels is not much. I borrowed Mr. He's reputation to frighten Xiaoxiao, isn't it worth 6000 taels?"

He Qingxiao listened, and twitched the corner of his mouth.

He went to the two banks without revealing his identity, and only Duan Shaoqing knew that he was the envoy of Jinlinwei Township. It was obvious who the "Xiaoxiao" in the mouth of the Kou girl was referring to.

Ms. Kou is really reckless when she uses "Xiao Xiao" to refer to her uncle.You must know that many people who are in the position of nephews and nephews dare not say a word about their elders in front of outsiders, even if they have suffered great grievances.

Perhaps since she was sensible, she understood that she was born with invisible shackles, and He Qingxiao appreciates free and easy people.

"Miss Kou—"

Seeing that He Qingxiao was still refusing, Xin You's face tensed: "Master He, do you want me to be someone who doesn't believe what I say?"

"But--"

"Or Master He thinks that my integrity is not worth 6000 taels?"

He Qingxiao was speechless.

Xin You stuffed the small box into his hand, and said with a smile: "If Mr. He thinks there are more than expected, can you do one more thing for me?"

He Qingxiao stared at the small box for a moment, then compromised.

If she refuses any more, Miss Kou will get angry.

Ms. Kou was angry with him and brazenly accepted 6000 taels as a reward, but he still chose the latter.

"Miss Kou, please tell me."

Xin You handed over the list that was sorted out after returning to the east courtyard of the bookstore: "I would like to ask Master He to check for me the shops on this list to see if there is any problem."

It is impossible for her to let them take back what Shaoqing's mansion spit out.Whether these dozens of shops are worth 15 taels is not up to Duan Shaoqing.

However, these shops are scattered all over the place, and they operate in different directions. It would be too time-consuming for her to investigate slowly.Since Mr. He felt that he had taken more than 6000 taels, he just happened to help her with something, so that Mr. He could feel at ease and save her trouble.

He Qingxiao took the list and glanced at it: "These shops—"

"It's all mine."

He Qingxiao shook the hand holding the list, and was speechless for a long time.

"Master He?"

"Oh, good. When will Miss Kou get the result?"

"There's no rush, it'll be a year ago."

It's not long before New Year's Eve.

After He Qingxiao left, Xin You returned to the east courtyard.

Jiang Shuang was guarding the door, shopkeeper Hu and Liu Zhou had lost themselves in the Silver Mountain, Xiao Lian was helping out, Mother Fang—

Xin You saw Nanny Fang wiping her tears.

"Why is the nanny crying?" She walked over and asked.

Mother Fang wiped her eyes with an excited expression: "This old slave is happy, happy..."

When she was sent to Zhuangzi by Shaoqing's mansion, she never dreamed that she would have today.

"Madam would be so happy if she knew." Tears welled up in Nanny Fang's eyes again.

For Madam, it is a blessing that the girl can grow up safely and get out of the cabinet with a decent dowry.

Mother Fang felt sad when she thought of Kou's mother who was left alone on the sick bed, she put her hands together and murmured: "Ma'am, the girl has grown up and is promising, don't worry..."

Xin You turned her face away, her eyes blushing quietly.

In the evening of that day, Shopkeeper Hu and Liu Zhou supported each other to go to the west courtyard for dinner.

The west courtyard is connected to the printing workshop, and most people in the bookstore eat and sleep in the west courtyard.

"Shopkeeper, you look quite tired, are you busy again?" Manager Zhao asked in confusion.

Although the popularity of "Painted Skin" is still there, there is no reason not to print it again, and Mr. Song Ling's new book has not yet come out. During this period of time, the bookstore's business is stable, and it is not considered busy.

Shopkeeper Hu didn't even have the strength to wave his hands: "Don't ask, let's eat."

When the big white steamed buns were served, shopkeeper Hu suddenly thought of Yin Yuanbao, and the chopsticks fell on the table.

"Boss, what's wrong with you?"

Shopkeeper Hu took a deep look at Zhao Guanshi, and suddenly asked, "Brother Zhao, have you ever seen Yinzi get scared?"

Manager Zhao was stunned for a moment, and reached out to touch shopkeeper Hu's forehead.

It's over, it's over, Lao Hu seems to be stupid!
Under the candlelight in the east courtyard, Xinyou called Xiaolian to come closer.

"What's your order, Miss?" Until now, Xiao Lian's eyes were still shining with excitement.

Xin You turned over her hands and put the two small chapters on the table.

"One of these two small stamps belongs to Jinsheng Bank and the other belongs to Bao'an Bank. A total of 40 taels of silver can be withdrawn."

Xiao Lian was in a daze, not knowing why Xin You was telling her this.
