Chapter 162 Golden Sword
  Yingge did not directly answer Shen Zhuoxi's words, but was weighing the interests inside.
  After a long time, he asked Shen Zhuoxi again: "Next time I come back, can I get my money back?"
  "I just explained it very clearly." Shen Zhuoxi said it again, "Not necessarily, it may be a good thing, or it may be a broken stone."
  "No matter what it is, let me make it clear first. I am only responsible for pulling strings. Whether you make millions of taels of silver or lose all your money, it has nothing to do with me."
  "Okay, I agree." Yingge suddenly made up her mind and said firmly: "I will give the money to you, it will be difficult to get it back in the future. I will take a gamble. If I make a lot of money, I will have a way out. "
  "I also asked the eldest lady to help me connect the wires and let me contact those businessmen and sign and sign."
  Shen Zhuoxi glanced at Dragonfly and said, "Take her there, I have other things to do."
  The situation had been laid out long ago, and the businessman was also prepared in advance. There was no need for Shen Zhuoxi to show up.
  Dragonfly looked at the two people's retreating figures and whispered: "Miss, is this method reliable? After all, Yingge has a total of 2.2 million taels of silver, will she take it all out?"
  Shen Zhuoxi snorted coldly: "The old lady forced Yu Qinglian, Yu Qinglian had to ask for money from Yu Qingbo, and Yu Qingbo asked Yingge again, and you heard what Yingge said."
  "She was willing to give up her son, but she was reluctant to give up the silver. This investment is at least two million taels of silver. No matter how much it is, it is the dowry left by my mother."
  "What belongs to my mother, why should I use it to support these people?"
  "That's right, Yingge didn't save any money in the building before, so she relied entirely on Master Yu's gift." Dragonfly echoed: "Those more than two million taels came from the hands of the eldest lady, not all of them belong to Princess Xiaoqing. .”
  "The only blame is that Yingge is greedy. If she were to be really peaceful, we can't do this."
  "When you get the money tomorrow, let those people go back to the south immediately and don't show up in the future." Shen Zhuoxi warned: "Don't give them a copper less."
  Before the next day, Yingge handed over all the money to the merchants that night.
  And it was all, Yingge only had a few thousand taels of silver left in her hands, so she wanted to give it a try.
  Unfortunately, it is not hers and will never be hers.
  After the silver note was in Shen Zhuoxi's hands, she immediately went to the old lady with the broken golden sword.
  When the old lady saw the golden sword, she was shocked and angry, and asked Aunt Yuan to call Yu Qinglian on the spot.
  Yu Qinglian didn't know what happened, and thought it was because of yesterday's incident. After entering the door and saluting, she took out a stack of bills and said: "Mother, the money you asked me to give to the second lady has all been sent to the merchant."
  "Here are the receipts for you to take a look at."
  The old lady had a sullen face and did not pick him up. Instead, she said, "For the sake of giving birth to your eldest son, I will give you a chance. Do you have anything to explain?"
  Only then did Yu Qinglian realize that something was wrong. No matter what the reason was, she knelt down and said, "My daughter-in-law doesn't know what crime she has committed. Please tell her clearly."
  The old lady said nothing and winked at Aunt Yuan.
  Aunt Yuan nodded and threw the sword that was broken into two pieces in front of Yu Qinglian.
  Yu Qinglian trembled, then denied it, pretending to know best: "Mother, what is this?"
  "What do you think?" The old lady slapped her hands on the table and said angrily: "You gave it to His Highness King Yu by passing off a gold-plated iron sword as a gold sword. How dare you?"
  "I don't have it. This, this is definitely not that sword!" Yu Qinglian denied it: "I don't know what it is!"
  "Hmph, if it weren't for the unstable connection between the sword's handle and the blade, you would have been fooled." In front of the irrefutable evidence, the old lady ignored Yu Qinglian's sophistry and continued.
  "This fake product was sent from Prince Yu's palace. If you deny it, does it mean that Prince Yu lied?"
  Yu Qinglian knelt on the ground and did not dare to speak, looking at Jin Jian.
  She really didn't know how the sword could break into two pieces!
  Before she made the sword, she told her master that it must be welded tightly to prevent it from coming out of joint!
  She doesn't understand swords, so she naturally doesn't know that the handle and sword body are not made from one piece of material.
  "Speak!" Seeing her kneeling in silence, the old lady became even more angry: "If I remember correctly, the price you quoted for this sword is 182,700 taels of silver."
  "The pig iron is plated with gold. Hmm, I don't want ten thousand taels of silver. Where are the remaining one hundred and seventy thousand taels of silver?"
  Yu Qinglian trembled again in fright and hesitated: "The money will be used as expenses for the house."
  "Fart!" The old lady couldn't help but uttered a curse word: "I remember every expense of the house clearly. Do you think a hundred thousand taels of silver is a decimal?"
  "If it were really more than a hundred thousand taels, I would have noticed it a long time ago. Why are you waiting to ask you now?"
  After Shen Zhuoxi said it the day before yesterday, the old lady took the house's account book and checked it, and there was no extra transaction at all.
  Seeing that she couldn't get over it, Yu Qinglian sobbed and cried: "Mother, I don't have to use this money. You also know the expenses of the house, even Zehuan's side is too big."
  "Zehuan is going to travel with the third prince, so he must bring enough money. With the rent from the shop and the village, and the salary of the grand master, how can it be enough..."
  Before he finished speaking, the old lady interrupted: "Zehuan is a child of my Shen family. No matter how much money he spends, won't my family give it to him?"
  "Yes." Aunt Yuan also said: "Madam, in the years when Princess Xiaoqing was in charge of the family, nothing like this has ever happened. Aren't you committing theft?"
  The old lady thought of something and suddenly said: "When His Royal Highness King Yu was at the height of his popularity, you dared to use this kind of thing as a gift. What about the other families?"
  Yu Qinglian was sure that it was impossible for the old lady to go to other people's houses to check them one by one, so she said: "This is the only one, how dare I do anything with the others!"
  "Okay, I hope not." The old lady said with a straight face, "I'll give you one day to replenish the 170,000 taels of silver into the mansion's treasury."
  "Otherwise things get serious and I can't protect you!"
  Yu Qinglian nodded quickly, but did not dare to make any sound.
  Shen Zhuoxi gave the golden sword to the old lady and left without stopping at Jing'an Garden at all, but she expected that Yu Qinglian would only admit this.
  If that were the case, wouldn't it be an advantage to her?
  The next day, Shen Zhuoxi went to find Wei Zhiting again.
  Wei Zhiting looked much better than last time. When he saw her coming to Prime Minister Wei's Mansion, he smiled and said, "We are of the same mind. I planned to find you tomorrow after everything is over."
  "I didn't expect you to come today. I also asked someone to make you a suit of clothes. We will pick them up shortly."
  "Is the matter settled?" When Shen Zhuoxi saw her smile, he knew that the medicine had worked.
  Wei Zhiting nodded and said, "Your medicine really works. I didn't last even a day before that scumbag took it. Not only did he hand over the clothes that Hong Rui had stolen, he also handed over all the property that had been stolen from the house in the past few years. .”
  "It's a pity that he didn't have much left of his worthless things, but the house didn't lack those things. In anger, my father ordered someone to break one of his legs, severed ties with him, and sent him back to his hometown."
  "By the way, you must have something to do here today."
