0025 The Road to Wealth
Xuan Hongtao took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Brother Ji Ze, I really couldn't imagine that Xuan Hongtao, a small sixth rank, could climb the Zeng family. I am still like in my dreams. ∮ Please read the book W·w ∫ W ∮.QingKanShu.cC”
Zeng Jize waved his hand, "Brother Hong Tao, don't say that. People's fortunes are in succession. Without my father, I, Zeng Jize, are at most like Brother Hong Tao. It is very likely that even Brother Hong Tao's achievements will not be able to get them. Brother Hong Tao does not need to be too humble."
Xuan Yuemeng heard the two of them being polite and a little anxious. He quickly said how to divide the money, right? You, Zeng Jize, wouldn't you really want to make a fortune, right? If that's the case, it would be better to say it was just a joke, and you can return all the money to the original owner and be generous!
Zeng Siping pulled Xuan Yuemeng's clothes corner and said, "Hey, let's go play?"
Xuan Yuemeng looked at Zeng Siping's tender little face and thought to herself, who would play with you little brat? But she smiled and said, "Wait a minute?"
Zeng Siping pouted his little mouth, very unhappy.
Zeng Jize saw it and felt that Xuan Yuemeng was like a little adult, constantly applauding in his heart. Zeng Jize had been secretly observing Xuan Yuemeng for a long time, especially just now, Zeng Jize only knew that Xuan Yuemeng was extremely smart, but he had never been in contact with him. Today, he spent time with Xuan Yuemeng. With careful attention, this feeling was even more amazing. Although Xuan Yuemeng did not stare at the pile of silver notes, Zeng Jize knew that Xuan Yuemeng was concerned about the ownership of the silver notes.
Zeng Jize smiled and said, "There are not many people who propose marriages with money, but my Zeng family will not ask for a child's belongings. Brother Hong Tao, after I reported to my father, if my father approves of this marriage, he can prepare another gift token. You can take these silver notes back when you leave later."
Everyone was surprised. They didn't expect Zeng Jize to say such words. Xuan Huang thought he had heard it wrong, and his heart was full of surprise. He was a wealthy family and heroic.
Although Xuan Yuemeng was also surprised, she did not expect that Zeng Jize was so generous in doing things, but what was surprised was different from other people. She was not completely surprised by Zeng Jize's grandeur, but she felt that Zeng Jize's skills and vision were really not comparable to ordinary people. As the saying goes, the prime minister can hold a boat in his stomach, and Zeng Jize does have the mind of the prime minister.
The most qualified and generous Qing Dynasty was indeed the Zeng family. If Zeng Guofan was a little more ruthless back then, it would only take a minute to kill the Qing Dynasty. If it were Xuan Yuemeng, Zeng Guofan would definitely be independent when he took Tianjing. It would be useless to cry in Beijing. Zeng Guofan was more than 300,000 troops at that time! He would have crossed thousands of miles of mountains and rivers in minutes!
Xuan Hongtao was already in surprise and couldn't speak, and kept saying, "How is this good? How is this good? Yuemeng is just a child making a fuss. If Brother Ji Ze had not taken action, he would not be able to hold on to this money at all. And if he gave it back to us now, we would still not be able to keep such a large amount of money. Neither of the two families wanted to do it. Please read the book W w Ω W Ω Qing Kan Suhu.cC”
Zeng Jize nodded with appreciation and looked at Xuan Hongtao with a smile, feeling that he underestimated Xuan Hongtao before. Although Xuan Hongtao is honest, it is not bad to see things. This is how people are. No matter how smart a person is, they always hope that others will say their own good and think about their own benefits, especially after giving them kindness, they are mostly rewarded. "Brother Hongtao said this to me, but you don't have to worry. He foreigners can't rob money randomly. It's not easy to take back the money you have left. Take it. If you have anything in the future, you can discuss it with me. Since I, Zeng Jize, I just have a fancy to Yuemeng, I just look at the future of the little guy, otherwise my Zeng family will not be able to sell my daughter?"
Xuan Hongtao bowed to Zeng Jize in conscience and said, "Brother Jize said very much. If Siping had not been engaged to me as a child at such a young age, it would be very likely that he would marry the royal family in the future."
Zeng Jize nodded, "Don't say that I marry the royal family, I don't care if I marry anyone. In fact, I just hope that Siping will be able to marry a talented ordinary scholar in the future. I will be satisfied. Our Zeng family can already be considered a wealthy family, and I know the difficulties of marrying into a wealthy family."
Zeng Jize's words were a bit contradictory, which shows that Zeng Jize was also excited now.
Xuan Yuemeng, what do you mean by saying this? I see if I grow up, our Xuan family is still a small family? The girl’s life is not happy, what does it have to do with big and small families? It’s not mainly whether the husband is good to his wife?
Xuan Yuemeng suddenly spoke, "This money should be kept in the Zeng Mansion for the time being. It is safer. I said that this money belongs to Siping. Since Mr. Zeng is willing to lend it to us temporarily, I promise that when Siping gets married, he will use the total amount obtained by 100,000 taels to Siping's age to be given to Siping."
Xuan Yuemeng's words are a bit big. He is a bit old. If he is twenty years old, it wouldn't be two million taels? It makes Zeng Jize laugh.
Xuan Hongtao understood what his son meant. Seeing Xuan Huang stretched his neck again, he smiled and said, "Brother Ji Ze, have you seen it? I have known that I have been fighting with my parents since I was a child, and I am afraid that we will take his money. I will not hide it from Brother Ji Ze. The hundreds of taels of silver in our Xuan family's big house are in the hands of this child. I have been thinking about doing business since I was a child, and I have exchanged it for German coins, saying that it can make money by exchange."
Zeng Jize said oh and looked at Xuan Yuemeng in surprise. How did a man who was a few months old change so much? In fact, Zeng Jize was not worried about Xuan Yuemeng's future at all. Just because Xuan Yuemeng's current performance, even if he grows up, he can be regarded as a smart person from afar. Zeng Jize was worried that this child was too sensible and was afraid that Xuan Yuemeng would go wrong. Please read the book W w Ω キ ∫.

Zeng Jize: "I love to do business, there is nothing wrong with it. But there is one thing: this child is too smart. Such a child should start early. He should give Yuemeng a basic education earlier. I will set a task for Yuemeng. You must come back from a scholar at the age of five, otherwise you have to study properly every day and not think about anything."
Xuan Yuemeng was sweating profusely. As he said that, he even set a task for me? I took the exam for a scholar? Even if I use my strength to get a baby, I can't pass the exam! You clearly told me to be locked at home and don't do anything!
When Zeng Jize saw Xuan Yuemeng's face looked embarrassed, he smiled and said, "What? Yuemeng, don't you dare to agree? When you and Siping officially get married, you can't agree, because what I said is the same as what your father said."
Xuan Yuemeng couldn't help but sweat again. As a result, she adopted her as a dead man as a father, and now another father appeared. With Xuan Hongtao, she was still two fathers.
Seeing that Xuan Yuemeng could not refuse, she was grateful to Zeng Jize for helping him a lot today, so she had to respond, "Yes."
Xuan Yuemeng dared not disobey. Judging from the indicators for the five-year-old scholar exam, it is just a casual statement. I hope that in a while, my fathers can forget this.
Zeng Jize laughed loudly, thinking that talking to Xuan Yuemeng was just like a young man in his teenage years old. It was really interesting. "Yuemeng, if you give all this money, can you keep it? Do you plan to collect the money or deposit the ticket number at your house? Or do you use it to exchange it for redemption and deposit it in a foreign company?"
Xuan Yuemeng: "Everything is used for redemption, first exchange for some marks, and then wait until the mark appreciates and then exchange it for gold. Make some small investments. Money deposits are the stupidest way. Only when money flows can it produce benefits."
Zeng Jize smiled and said, "But, the world is so chaotic. How can you use such a big sum of money to do business? How can you keep it? Are you not afraid of people robbing you? Officials, bandits, and foreigners, there are many people robbing money."
Xuan Yuemeng: "Set up a team of servants, buy houses, and buy a batch of foreign guns. Mr. Timothy Li is my friend. Our Qing Dynasty has restrictions on the number of servants and weapons. Foreigners do not. I can give Li Timothy Li and ask him to find me a few foreign guns. In this case, unless the army comes to grab them."
Zeng Jize smiled and shook his head, "I won't ask anymore. If you ask again, my mind won't keep up. Brother Hong Tao, I'll give Yuemeng a master's degree in a few days. At that time, I will check his knowledge every day. This child has too many ideas. If he doesn't put so much thought on the book, something will happen."
Xuan Hongtao nodded and said yes.
Zeng Jize: "These silver notes will be kept in our mansion for the time being. If you want them, you can tell the accountant in our mansion at any time that you can withdraw them at any time."
Xuan Yuemeng ordered the silver notes, and neatly coded the integers of 100,000 taels, and took away the two thousand taels in the near future. He planned to exchange them for pounds or marks tomorrow. He first bought some necessities, and after purchasing the guarantee system, he then exchanged all the money for marks. Xuan Yuemeng was very anxious. He estimated that the Franco-Prussian War should be over soon. Maybe it was over and it had not been spread to China. He was afraid that he would miss this opportunity.
Xuan Hongtao was grateful and took the family away. Zeng Siping still wanted to play with Xuan Yuemeng.
Zeng Jize took Zeng Siping's hand and said, "Let's play tomorrow. You two can grow up together, and there will be more time in the future."
Xuan Yuemeng heard Zeng Jize say that she grew up with Zeng Siping, and looked at the silly girl, and suddenly a warm current passed through her heart, guessing what the stingy little girl would look like when she grew up.
Xuan Hongtao, Xuan Huang, Xuan Yuemeng and others returned to the Xuan family's old house, as if they were back to a ghost house. Except for Lao Xuan, Lao Xuan, Dazhi and Dali, the family of the second and third rooms, the old man and the old lady, they all went back to their respective houses early.
Xuan Hongtao: "Yutang, how do you use such a large amount of money? Do you use it to exchange for foreign exchange? Do you know that using such a large amount of money to circulate, requires great protection? Tianjin is so messy."
Xuan Hongtao was very concerned about this issue, and Xuan Huang was naturally very concerned. He asked questions as soon as he entered the hall.
Xuan Yuemeng smiled and said, "Didn't you just say it at the Zeng family? Don't worry, if I don't build a stable security system, I won't show my money casually. Don't worry, I won't let our money be risky."
Xuan Hongtao and Xuan Huang were very worried. They both chatted from the left and right. Although they didn't say it clearly, the central meaning always revolved around asking Xuan Yuemeng to keep the silver notes for them to store them, and it was safer to save them in Yisheng. Eisheng, or they would buy a big house and hire more servants.
Xuan Yuemeng just smiled and didn't talk back. It was useless to know that talking back was just a matter of talking back. Most people in this era had common people's ideas and feudal landlords' ideas. Can they change by saying change? Buy a big house and hire more servants. You two might as well build a bunker for yourself to keep them out, which is the safest.
This situation did not end until Xuan Xu came to carry herself to bed.
Xuan Xu packed up, washed Xuan Yuemeng's fat claws, feet and face, washed her big bye, and put Xuan Yuemeng in the quilt, "Mengmeng, why did you think of proposing a marriage with Miss Zeng today? Do you know what marriage means?"
Xuan Yuemeng looked at Xuan Xu's family. The ten-year-old girl did not make people feel young at all. She sighed at Xuan Xu's family's pitiful life experience. At such a young age, it is the most innocent and romantic age in modern times. "I don't understand."
Xuan Xu touched Xuan Yuemeng's forehead, "Then what do you like about Miss Zeng?"
Xuan Yuemeng: "I don't know, what's your name?"
Xuan Xu thought to myself that I was asking you, but you asked me instead? "Before dad sold me to Xuan's house, he called me Kaori."
Xuan Yuemeng said, "Xu Xiangzhi, it sounds pretty good, it's a bit rustic, hehe."
Xuan Xu sighed and kissed Xuan Yuemeng's little face, "I know you don't know anything. You can't just say you like it to the girl in the future. Do you know? Go to bed quickly."
The next day, Xuan Yuemeng looked at her gold watch, thinking that she actually had such an expensive antique watch, or a gold pocket watch. If it were so cool in modern times, she could catch a hundred girls alone. It was already past four o'clock and got up early in the morning, wearing clothes alone.
In fact, Xuan Yuemeng didn't sleep well this night. Suddenly, she had a wealth of more than 103,000 taels of silver, which further aroused his ambitions. She was only an eight-month man. According to modern standards, she suddenly rushed into the ranks of 50 millionaires. She had to move towards a billionaire quickly!
However, Xuan Yuemeng knew that it is easy for a person to turn his wealth from ten thousand to one hundred thousand, but it is not difficult to turn from one hundred thousand to one million. It is very difficult to move from one million to ten million. It can be said that the larger the assets and the higher the level, the more things involved in each step, the more difficult it is! Poor people cannot easily get on the rich.
There is another reason why Xuan Yuemeng got up so early. She was worried that if she got up late, she would be entangled by the arrogant little girl Zeng Siping. No, now she should be said to be the arrogant little girl, who is more than four years older than herself.
Xuan Yuemeng came together, and Xuan Xu also got up, "Mengmeng, what are you doing when you get up so early? Can you wear clothes yourself?"
Xuan Yuemeng glanced at Xuan Xu, with a slender figure and a big blue bellyband. Although she didn't have a chest, her snow-white skin was mostly outside. After all, Xuan Yuemeng had a male and female concept in her heart, so she hurriedly turned her face and refused to look, "Is there something wrong."
Xuan Xu helped Xuan Yuemeng put on clothes, "What can you do with such a small person? Is it urinating? You don't have to wear such neat urination. Put on a coat, I'll carry you."
