Chapter 80 Give Surname ([-])

"Mr. Wang Dalang, this is all the county lord's savings," Yuzhu knelt behind the screen, and motioned for more than a dozen stout servants to bring over six large black lacquered wooden boxes.

After dismissing those little girls, Yuzhu came out from behind the screen, stood beside the six big boxes, bent down to open them one by one, each box was full of gold, and each piece was the standard size poured by the imperial court. That is, ten taels of gold bars, "a total of 12 gold. The county lord said that she believed in Mr. Wang Dalang's vision and decided to put all her wealth in Anshanfang."

12 gold?

Nowadays one tael of gold can be exchanged for [-] copper plates, that is, eight strings of money.

12 taels of gold, if converted into copper coins, it would be 5000 million guan.

Even the Wang family, known as Wang Wanwan, may not be able to come up with 100 million yuan in cash all at once.

After Wang You'an saw the golden gold, a layer of mist appeared in his eyes.

The god horse called the scholar to die for his confidant?God's horse is called Maxima to meet Bole?
Wang You'an only felt waves of warm current rushing through his chest. At this moment, he wished to run in front of the county magistrate of 'Xiangcheng', even if he couldn't pat his chest and promise to swear, at least let him kowtow twice to the magistrate, right? !
To be honest, Wang Youan keenly grasped the business opportunities after the news came out from the imperial court that the South City and the New City would be developed.

He immediately persuaded his father to buy that Anshan Fang ahead of other businessmen.Even if the entire square cannot be bought, at least the main streets must be occupied first.

But Wang Jinbao ignored him at all, and said directly, when I was in business, you were still in the womb.

The implication is self-evident that Wang Jinbao does not believe that the imperial court will develop Anshanfang, nor does he think that there is any money to be made there.

Wang Youan persuaded his father earnestly, taking data and making plans, so he almost patted his chest and said that if he lost money, he would bear all the losses.

In fact, although Wang You'an didn't say it clearly, the meaning in his words has been implicitly expressed.

But Wang Jinbao kicked over the food table and angrily reprimanded Wang You'an as "the kid is arrogant".

Then he uttered harsh words, if Wang You'an insisted on developing some kind of Anshanfang, he would never use a single cent of the public's money.

The meaning couldn't be more clear, you kid's wings have grown hard, and you don't listen to what I say, right?

Okay, no problem, I don't care about you anymore, you can do whatever you want, but if you want to use the family's money to achieve your 'famous name', there is no way!
Want to do business?Want to surpass you, Lao Tzu and me?
Wood problem, find a way to go!

What?Want capital?I didn't hear clearly, you kid, say it again?
After pretending to be deaf and dumb for a while, Wang Jinbao expressed his meaning: I want money, but I don't have it!Damn, don't give it!
Wang You'an found the business opportunity with great difficulty, and worked hard with great enthusiasm, but unexpectedly, he was hit head-on by his biological father, who almost beat him to death.

Just when he was disappointed and depressed, and he was about to question his own judgment, the county lord actually believed him and invested all his wealth in him.

Wang Youan will never forget this feeling of being trusted and valued by others.

Many years later, after Wang You'an really became the richest man in the capital, and even the world's richest man, he always remembered Xiao Nan's kindness to him, and never betrayed Xiao Nan!
Perhaps because he was too excited, Wang Youan forgot how to be polite, stood up with a bang, walked to Yuzhu in a few steps, opened the hem of the clothes, tore off a piece of plain white inner robe, bit his index finger, and wrote a letter in blood. contract.

Of course, this blood-written contract can only express Wang Youan's excitement and gratitude, and cannot be used as a real archived contract.

What Yu Zhu sent to Xiao Nan was not only this blood book, but also a legal contract that had been filed in the yamen.

"Mr. Wang Dalang said that the land of Anshanfang is large, but most of it is fields and mountains, and it cannot be used to build a market at all. Except for a few important streets, there is no need to buy everything else." Yu Zhu put the contract on Xiao Nan On the table in front of him, he said softly: "Yes, Mr. Wang Dalang said, we only need to occupy those few streets."

Xiao Nan nodded, she had no doubts about the employment, since she chose Wang Youan, she decided to hand over all business matters to him.

Besides, what they said was very reasonable, and it was to save her gold, so there was no reason for her to refuse.

"Okay, you go tell him and do as he says."

Five months pregnant, Xiao Nan's body also became a bit blessed, and his slender fingers turned into white, fat little worms. He tapped the contract on the table with his index finger, and said, "By the way, let him inquire about it by the way." Let’s talk about Shengdaofang. I think the location there is also good, if possible, I will also buy a few streets there.”

Yu Zhu hurriedly responded, but she didn't retreat immediately, she waited for Xiao Nan's next order.

"Also, when Mr. Wang Dalang goes to Anshanfang to buy land, please help me to have a look. If there are suitable farms and forests, please help me buy some." Xiao Nan felt that since she decided to buy a workshop, now she only buys land. After a few streets, I was somewhat unwilling.

Wang You'an persuaded her to buy only a few streets, it was indeed to save her money and for her own good;

But what Xiao Nan wants to do now is not to save money, but to turn all the cash in his body into real estate and land.

She hasn't forgotten the disgusting things she encountered in her previous life. In that life, that bastard Li Jing actually used her money to buy a strange woman in a brothel.

Is there anything more frustrating in the world than this?
Not to mention, in the previous life, her child and she also died indirectly at the hands of this strange woman!

Although, Xiao Nan didn't decide to make peace with Cui Youbo in this life, and he probably won't meet Li Jing again.

But everything must be prepared in advance, who can guarantee that Cui Yulang will not have any relationship with the strange women in the brothel?
Who can guarantee that Cui Youbo won't take money from her private house to support the outer room? !

Xiao Nan couldn't guarantee it, so she decided to nip this possibility in the bud - all her private houses were bought into real estate, and Uncle Cui didn't have many private houses, so she didn't trust the eldest lady or other elders of the Cui family Willing to pay for his son to buy a prostitute!
"Yes, magistrate."

Yuzhu silently counted the accounts reported to her by Wang You'an in her heart. She thought that there would be a surplus of the county lord's 10,000+ taels of gold, but she didn't expect that the county lord didn't want to leave it at all, and spent money like desperately.

Sighing silently, when the county lord wanted to buy Anshanfang two days ago, Yuzhu was worried, so she quietly found Mama Su who was always sensible.

But Mama Su said, since the county lord wants to buy it, there must be a reason for wanting to buy it. As servants, we just need to help the county lord with our hearts.

Seeing that the most strict, impartial and selfless Mother Su refused to persuade the county magistrate, Yuzhu couldn't help it either, so she had to obey Xiao Nan's orders obediently, and never dared to say a word.

In fact, Yuzhu really misunderstood Su's mother, Su's mother heard the news, she was not worried about Xiao Nan.

But she suddenly remembered that when she returned to Qinrenfang last time, the princess had explained that since the county magistrate has grown up, don't be too cautious with her, so as not to wear down her spirit.

Mother Su knew that 10,000+ taels of gold might be regarded as a lot of wealth in many honorable families.

But in the eyes of the princess, it was just a trivial matter. If the money could be used to make the county lord happy, the princess would not reprimand her even if the county lord replaced the gold collars with gold leaves to sprinkle in Qujiang.

10,000+ two to buy a desolate square city, it is right to buy a toy for the county lord.

Mother Su felt that even if she told the princess about it, the princess would smile calmly and say, "As long as Qiao Mu is happy!"

Sure enough, a few days later, when Su's mother returned to Xiao's house with Xiao Nan's gift to Princess Changle, she pretended to inadvertently exchanged all of Xiao Nan's private houses into gold collars, and then handed them over to a small merchant when buying a real estate. , the princess was happily flipping through the clothes her daughter made for her.

After hearing Mama Su's words, the princess didn't raise her head, and said indifferently: "Hehe, Qiao Mu has grown up and learned to buy real estate... It's nothing, let her go, it's just a bit of gold, as long as it As long as the child is happy...By the way, is Qiao Mu still short of money? I still have some here!"

As the eldest daughter of the sage, Princess Changle is most favored by the sage and the empress.There are as many as [-] households in Tang Muyi under her name.

Coupled with the generous dowry and occasional rewards from the palace, Princess Changle is definitely a master who is not short of money.

There is only such a daughter under the princess' knees, and her dowry and property will naturally be left to Xiao Nan, it's just a matter of time.

Now, the princess can only be happy when she hears that her daughter is going to do business, so why would she think about the question of 'what if my daughter loses money'?

In fact, even if she thought about it, the princess would wave her hand generously, "How much did you lose? Auntie will pay you back!"

Mama Su twitched the corners of her mouth slightly, and said with a smile, "Fortunately, although all the cash in the county lord's hand has been given to the Wang family, there are still rents for the houses and shops under the county lord's name." , every month, there are hundreds of guan.”

With this money, big things cannot be done, but daily expenses are still enough.

The princess nodded, "That's good. However, you go back and tell Qiao Mu that it's right to be diligent and thrifty in housekeeping, but you can't wrong yourself. If she doesn't have a lot of money, just tell me."

Her aunt was a well-known virtuous empress at that time, whether it was the front court or the harem, they all praised her for being virtuous, virtuous, thrifty, courteous and modest.

Of course, in fact, A Niang is indeed virtuous, generous, gentle and kind, but when it comes to diligence and thrift, there are some considerations and comparisons.

Anyway, as far as the princess is concerned, Aniang may not hold any extravagant banquets, but Aniang's food and clothing are also extremely elegant and gorgeous, which is really far from being thrifty.

Therefore, the so-called 'diligence and thrift' is just a comparison. The princess does not want her daughter to wrong herself for the sake of a false name.

"Yes, I understand."

Mother Su hurriedly bowed her head in response.

The princess folded the pajamas, duck head socks and other clothes embroidered by her daughter and put them aside, and then she looked at the copied scrolls: "The businessman surnamed Wang found these for Qiao Mu? Last time she sent a set?"

"Yes, the county lord said that although Mr. Wang's family background is humble, he is very clever and diligent in his work. She just mentioned a word, and Mr. Wang's family spent a lot of effort to find it for the county lord."

When Su's mother mentioned Wang You'an, she didn't add any embellishments, but just told the facts she saw, "The county lord is very satisfied with Mr. Wang's family, so she can safely entrust the gold to him for investment."

The princess nodded, "Well, Qiao Mu has done a good job. Being a merchant is a humble thing. Although you can earn more money, it is not a popular industry after all. Qiao Mu is a noble daughter of an aristocratic family. You must not humiliate your status for a little profit. .”

The princess is really more and more satisfied with this daughter.

Thinking back when Qiao Mu was just born, she had only such a daughter under her knees, so it was inevitable that she spoiled her a bit.

For her sake, Aye and A Niang also showed a lot of favor to Qiao Mu, so Qiao Mu was unavoidably domineering and self-willed.

This child is straightforward, and has the Xiao family's unique pride in his bones, and he doesn't even bother to play tricks with others.

It's a pity that Qiao Mu's temperament is fine at home. Everyone lets her in and spoils her. Once she gets married...

Thinking of the grievances suffered by her daughter a few months ago, the smile on the princess's face suddenly disappeared, and she asked in a deep voice, "How did I hear that Qiao Mu brought back Cui Ba's pregnant Tong Fang? What about this child? Did you really give up your husband for the sake of those who don't know the so-called 'virtuous'?"

Princess Changle has a gentle personality, but that doesn't mean she has no temper.

Xiao Jing also has several concubines and concubines, but that is only with her permission.

The princess may not treat the concubines too harshly like those arrogant sisters, but she will never indulge them.

Therefore, even a concubine who gave birth to a concubine did not dare to breathe in front of the princess, for fear of offending the princess and being punished by the princess.

Now I heard that my daughter is like the "virtuous wife" requested by those sour scholars. She not only took the initiative to help her husband take concubines, but also brought back the lowly maid who had harmed her, and ordered her to serve her with good food and drink.

Really, really too weak!
In the past, the daughter was willful and willful, and the princess was only a little worried, but she would not be angry;
Now, Xiao Nan's actions made the princess a little depressed.

After hearing this, Mother Su hurriedly explained to Xiao Nan: "Princess misunderstood the county lord, but in fact, the county lord did this in order to retreat."

At that moment, Mother Su told the princess about Ajin, with the help of her family, who sent news to Cui's house, and tried to bribe the servants of Chenguangyuan to frame the county master... and so on.

Finally said: "The county lord said that since she is restless, she is the same in the mansion as in Changshoufang. Instead of letting her make trouble outside, it is better to keep it under my nose. Anyway, Chenguangyuan is also my place. They are all her own, even if Ah Jin wants to make trouble, she can't get up."

Hearing this, the princess pondered for a while, and finally nodded slowly, "Well, Qiao Mu's words are not unreasonable. However, after hearing what you said, I think that A Jin is really not easy. Now she just If she is pregnant with a child, she dares to plot against the mistress. If she gives birth to a concubine in the future, wouldn't she want to bully Qiao Mutou?"

Many of the nobles in the imperial court were concubines or concubines. In order to have a decent statement of their own status, or to ask for the title of their biological mother, they kept asking for the status of concubines and concubines in the court.

Some people even proposed that if the first wife has nothing to do, the title should be inherited by the second son, instead of adopting from the first nephew.

If Aye agrees to this proposal, the identity and status of the bastard will be greatly improved in the future.

The princess is also a concubine, and she treats her husband's concubines and concubine children no differently from ordinary concubines—the family business of her husband's family is managed by her and her husband painstakingly. your little bastard? !

Fortunately, the princess's status is supernatural, and the Xiao family has strict family education, so they won't encounter the matter of "doting concubine and destroying wife".

But there are some problems with my daughter... Cui Youbo is a person with a criminal record. Looking at his past actions, the princess is very suspicious. After this kid has a concubine, he is very likely to do some unreliable things Son.

"Princess, don't worry, the county lord said that she already has a solution, and Ajin is nothing to be afraid of!"

Seeing that the princess was full of worry, Mama Su quickly comforted her softly.

On the other hand, Xiao Nan was really busy solving A Jin's problem.

"Master, the servant girl has found out clearly that Ah Jin's Aye Fan Yong has been going to the old man's side every day for the past few days, saying that he wants to adopt his son Fan Dezhi to the old man Fan Xin who is next to the old man. "

Yuzhu knelt beside Xiao Nan, and whispered back.

"Oh? What's the origin of that Fan Xin?" If it's just an ordinary melody, in the eyes of the power of the Fan family, they may not be interested.

"The servant girl has inquired. That Fan Xin used to be the old man's personal soldier. He went to the battlefield with the old man and rescued the old man from the dead. It is an old part of the Cui Jiarong. He is also very respectable. Even Xianggong and Da Furen think highly of him."

Yuzhu is worthy of being an inquisitor, and the information he obtained is very comprehensive.

"No wonder..." Xiao Nan nodded knowingly.

Come to think of it, the Fan family has already experienced all kinds of troubles after being separated from the main family.

In addition, Ajin was detained by her in the inner courtyard again, and went back to Cui's house for many days, without even seeing Uncle Cui's face, let alone blowing pillow wind to help her family's welfare.

And just when the Fan family was trying to find a way to return to the master's house, the old man brought those old buddies back to Beijing at the right time. The relationship between the master and the family gradually became closer.

"Master, the Fan family wants to go back to the Cui family again." Seeing Xiao Nan's pensive look, Yu Zhu hurriedly reminded: "If they really get in touch with the people around the old man... Mr. Balang often Go to the old man to learn homework..."

After two times of contact, there is no guarantee that the Fan family will not make trouble in front of Mr. Balang.

Yu Zhu thought for a while, and suggested: "They want to adopt their son to Fan Xin, this is not possible, that Fan Dezhi was originally a troublemaker, if he had the benefactor of the old man as his backer, he might not be so arrogant. The county magistrate Why don't we just ask Liu Langjun to come forward and mess things up before they can do it?!"

Xiao Nan bowed his head and said nothing, she was still thinking.

After a long time, Xiao Nan raised his head and said with a smile: "This matter really bothers Liu Langjun. However, I don't want him to disturb this matter, but I ask him to do his best to facilitate this matter!"

Yuzhu was puzzled, and asked in amazement: "Master, you, what is this..." In fact, she wanted to ask more, Lord, do you not have a fever? !
Xiao Nan could see the anxiety in Yuzhu's eyes, but he didn't explain much, just shook his head with a smile, and said, "Okay, you don't need to say more, I know it well."

The next morning, the sky was very overcast, and the heavy clouds seemed to weigh on people's hearts, making people breathless.

In the greenhouse, Cui Youbo continued to read to his son with the scroll in his arms.

However, he seemed to have something on his mind today, and he didn't know where his mind wandered while reading.

"My lord, what's bothering you?"

Xiao Nan walked to Cui Youbo's side, but he didn't even notice it, Xiao Nan couldn't help but cover his scroll in a funny way, and asked in a low voice.

"Huh?" Cui Youbo was suddenly interrupted, and he didn't recover for a moment.

After being stunned for a while, he smiled embarrassedly and said, "I'm sorry, I was distracted."

Xiao Nan smiled very gently, and said: "It's okay, is there something on your mind? Why don't you tell me? Maybe I can help!"

Cui Youbo closed the scroll, picked up the teacup, took two sips of tea soup, and said, "Actually, it's nothing. It's Ah Weng—"

It turned out that after Cui Shouren resigned as prime minister, he suddenly had more free time, and he didn't have much to do every day, so he thought more.

Maybe it's because people are getting old, and it's easy for the elderly to think about the past.

One day, Cui Shouren suddenly thought of his old buddies in the past, especially those soldiers who followed him all over the world.

Back then, they had been on the battlefield together, partners who lived and died together.

Although they are not comrades, the friendship between them is no worse than that of comrades-in-arms.

Now five or sixty years have passed, and I don't know how those old guys are doing.

So, Cui Shouren called the steward, and carefully asked how many of the soldiers who followed him were still alive, and how their lives are now.

Hearing what the steward said, Cui Shouren felt very uncomfortable, feeling that he had treated the old buddies who followed him through life and death badly, so he hurriedly ordered people to find them back from the farm.

But after seeing those old guys with his own eyes, Cui Shouren was even more sad-the once handsome young man has now become a sickly old man with gray hair.

There is also the benefactor who saved his life, and now he doesn't even have any descendants.A hundred years later, he was a lonely ghost who didn't even have a bowl of incense and rice.

This made Cui Shouren, who is also an old man, feel sympathy, but at the same time blamed himself, feeling that he had treated his benefactor and brother badly, and was thinking about how to compensate them every day.

As for Uncle Cui, he stayed with Liu Han every day these days. As for Liu Han, he admired Cui Shouren very much, so the two chatted and went to visit Cui Shouren together.

The grandparent and grandson met more times, and Cui Youbo also noticed what A Weng was thinking.

As a filial child, Cui Youbo really wanted to help Ah Weng solve his troubles.

After listening to Uncle Cui's narration, Xiao Nan smiled softly, "What's the difficulty? According to me, since these old people have lived and died with Ah Weng for so many years, they can be regarded as loyal servants of the Cui family. Why don't you ask Ah Weng for mercy and give them What about the surname 'Cui'? After a hundred years, allow them to be buried in the Cui family's ancestral grave and enjoy the incense of the Cui family's descendants?!"

PS: Hey, classmate Qiao Mu made a move. Poor Ajin, it will be a tragedy soon!
