Royal Little Fortune

Chapter 71 Uneven distribution of spoils
"That's not right! My dear girl, in the 2 taels of silver, there is also your capital of 5000 taels, so we should win a total of 5000 taels. Two silver coins, don't think that you just drank too much wine and your brain is not working well, Er Qige is not drunk yet, girl, give me back two thousand five hundred silver coins." Manzhu Xili said with a smile.

After hearing this, Ya Ruo immediately acted shamelessly. She smiled and said, "No, no, I want so much. I helped you win, so I should take the big one."

Seeing her daughter playing tricks, Manzhu Xili felt a little helpless, and reached out to take the 1 taels of silver notes left on the table.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Su took a step faster than her and grabbed her.

Seeing that those banknotes were received by his family Fujin, Manzhu Xili was a little dumbfounded.

What does it mean?
"Confiscated." Su Shi lightly handed him such a sentence, and put away the bank note.

Manzhu Xili looked at the mother and daughter, speechless for a long time.

His wife and daughter are playing tricks on him, what can he do?
I can only admit it!
However, if he wanted to play with his eldest brother and the others in two days, he would lose even his capital.

He looked at his family Fujin, rubbed his hands and smiled, "Yueqing, how about returning the 5000 taels of silver to me?"

"No." Su Shi rolled his eyes at him, and said a little angrily: "You are the king of the county, and your annual salary is only 5000 taels of silver. If you win or lose so much, you will lose our family fortune sooner or later. We are not allowed to follow you in the future." They are playing horses and hanging, playing with things and losing their minds, it is better to accompany your daughter to exercise and exercise."

""This... Although a salary of 5000 taels of silver a year is not too much, isn't there still 20 dendrobium in my salary?Our family can eat whatever we want with our stomachs open. Besides, we have a lot of property on the grasslands and in the middle of Beijing. The annual income is [-] million taels, which is enough for the whole family to spend. "Manzhu Xili laughed and said.

After hearing what he said, Mrs. Su smiled and said: "Our family has a big business. Although it seems that there are more income in one year, there are more people to support. In short, husband, I will not pay you back."

Su knows that her husband still has a small treasury, so this money is nothing.

Ya Ruo looked at his family Eqige's helpless and heartbroken look from the side, and couldn't help laughing.

The capital of the 5000 taels of silver was probably the personal silver that Eqige had saved for a long time.

Now it is confiscated by the mother, what a pity!
The salaries of officials in the Qing Dynasty were not very high. Her family’s salary was only 5000 taels a year for Qige, a majestic county king, and only 180 taels a year for officials of the first rank.

Ya Ruo deliberately inquired, in this time and space, the purchasing power of one tael of silver is about the same as that of four or five hundred yuan in the future.

But... the same amount of Lumi as the salary, that would be a bargain.

In addition to the salary of 5000 taels of silver, her family also has [-] hulumi a year.

One dendrobium rice weighs about two hundred catties, so it would be a bit scary to calculate it like this. It is a full 100 million catties of white rice, which can't be eaten up no matter how much you eat, so it can naturally be exchanged for silver.

And... In addition to money and rice, the usual benefits of these officials are also good.

When it was hot, the imperial court would give them money to relieve the heat, and when it was cold, they would give everyone money to buy charcoal fire.

As long as there are major festivals, there will be silver rewards.

All in all, it doesn't look like much on the surface, but in fact everyone's life is very nourishing.

And this is just their salary, you know, as the saying goes, three years Qingzhi county one hundred thousand snowflake silver.

To be a county magistrate who is equivalent to the future county magistrate is still an upright official, and he can earn 10 taels of silver in three years, let alone a corrupt official, that would be scary to death.

A prince like her family, Eqige, who has fiefs, soldiers and horses, and private property, of course disdains to do those things of corruption and bribery.

"I'm going to count how much money I have in my private house." Ya Ruo said with a smile, before she took two steps, she suddenly turned around and said with a smile: "Er Qige, mother, you haven't given me the lucky money yet this year."

After hearing this, Manzhu Xili and Su Shi were taken aback, only then did they realize that they did not give their daughter the title of celebrity.

The main reason is that my daughter came back from the palace yesterday and slept all night, but I got up today and forgot about it.

"Here you are." Su picked out a 200 tael bank note from a stack of bank notes in his hand and handed it to Ya Ruo, smiling: "Old rules, New Year's greetings."

"Yes." Ya Ruo nodded with a smile, and hastily kowtowed to her family Eqige and her mother in accordance with the custom.

"This is from Erqige." Manzhu Xili took out a bank note from the purse at his waist and handed it to his daughter.

Ya Ruo took it over and saw that it was 300 taels, and immediately smiled.

"It turns out that the lord still has a private possession." Su Shi joked on the side, but he didn't take his lord's pocket anymore.

As for men, especially men with a head and a face, they can't be rushed, just enough is enough.

Holding her "lucky money", Ya Ruo returned to her room contentedly.

That point in her mind belonged to Ya Ruo in the past, and the unclear memory told her that when she was young, the elders gave her lucky money by stringing copper coins with multicolored ropes and making them into dragon shapes for her, which meant good luck and good luck every year. Safety.

Later, she grew up slowly, and since she was about eight years old, E Qige and her mother did not give her lucky money, they would wrap a red envelope for her, and put a bank note in it.

Ya Ruo already has her own small treasury, which is a very delicate mahogany box.

It is not only engraved with lifelike snow lotus flowers, but also inlaid with precious stones. I heard that this is one of the mother's dowry, but it later belonged to her.

She has only come to this time and space for half a year. Half a year ago, there were only 1000 taels of silver bills in this wooden box, and now including the 1 taels she got today, the total is 500 taels of silver bills.

Of course, there are some odds and ends of silver in the drawer, which are for ordinary use.Other gold and silver jewelry does not count.

This is already a large fortune.

In the future, it will be several million yuan, so she is already considered a wealthy family now.

In short, it was the first time that Ya Ruo saw so much money, so she couldn't put it down, and held the box in her bosom for a long time before she was willing to let it go.

"Baolan, take it and lock it in the high cabinet." Ya Ruo gave the wooden box to Baolan, and said solemnly.

"Yes, Gege." Baolan nodded hastily.

For a few days after that, no one in the mansion shouted for horse hanging anymore, and I don't know if it was because they were afraid of losing once.

Ya Ruo is not in the mood to play with Dolan and Bao Leer now.

She would rather be alone in the house.

Apart from setting off fireworks with her family Eqige occasionally, or going out with Eqige and her mother to pay New Year's greetings, she has nothing else to do.
