Chapter Eight

Chapter 8: Taking advantage of the situation, your family's fortune is getting empty ()

With this understanding, Jin Liu, who had originally planned to hide half of it and said half of it, looked at the benefits, immediately dispelled the wishful thinking. He almost talked endlessly about the news that he had found out about the past few days.

It turned out that Xu Tiao, the master of Xu Liu, who has been promoted to the Ministry of Education, was not outstanding when he was young because of his clan's side. Although he later became a scholar, he was only 26 years old and left his childhood life. Compared with his predecessors, he passed the imperial examination twice and then became a chief clerk. He also found a position of governor in Yingtian Mansion. This time, he even got rid of the three words "unreasonable". For now, who is the most important person in the imperial examination, he was an official for nine years and was already very good at this point.

However, Xu Tiao's family is not wealthy, and the experience department is only a yamen office that specializes in miscellaneous matters such as archives and documents. This is definitely not a top priority in the entire Yingtian Prefecture Office. But even so, it is very rare for people from Nanjing to find such a position in charge of the department locally. According to Jin Liu's speculation, this Master Xu Liu, who has a very good reputation in Taiping, has not known how much money he has spent on this.

"I see."

After Jin Liu's long speech, Xu Xun just stingy to give these four concise words. However, his actions were much more generous than his words, and he directly asked Ruisheng to reward Jin Liu Yiguan for money. Sure enough, when he held the heavy blue sky, Jin Liu, who was at the door, suddenly slapped his head hard and turned back.

"Following the little one's memory, he actually forgot the serious things." Jin Liu seemed to have not realized that he had suddenly changed his claim, his face full of regret and shame. "It is said that the eldest master and the third master and the fourth master discussed that everyone would share the dividends of the clan's production and give the sixth master 10% more. The news was probably intentionally released, so the little one found out that as for how many gifts to give, each family would be secretive.

As for the adults mentioned by the younger ones last time, several other managers would enjoy the honor. It is said that the fifth young master of the Great Yin family is preparing to watch the fun, so even if the second Yin and the third Yin don’t come, the younger generation will have to come. The place where the banquet is Kuiyuan Building on Gongyuan Street, which was originally the place where the students passed the imperial examination. However, the Sixth Master likes elegance, and his pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and famous calligraphy and painting are all favorites. Of course, if the good words and sentences of young children in the clan can be praised by him, it is also a shame. However, it is said that the Great Master said that he would be embarrassed when he went, so he did not count you in it at all."

"Well, you've asked in detail. I'll take a break earlier after I went back. Thank you for your hard work today. I'll go out with me tomorrow morning."

This time, Xu Xun nodded thoughtfully, but asked Ruisheng to send Jinliu out of the second door and lock it. Although there was no clock and no time to go out to see the old copper drip in the Ming room, he knew it was not too early. Although he took off his shoes and sat on the bed, he felt no sleepy. While he was pondering, he only heard the sound of footsteps. After a while, Ruisheng came back.

However, compared to the previous time when he was giving his sixth sister-in-law the face was not very good, his face was obviously even worse at this time, so Xu Xun only glanced at it and smiled: "The old saying is good. If the daughter dispersed, she will come back again. Don't feel sorry for her."

"Young Master said it easy. The monthly expenses at home plus the monthly expenses of Jin Liu Ge Jin Liu Sister-in-law are four or five taels of silver. But since I took over the money, I have said that there are less than one hundred taels of silver just after taking it out by the young master. The remaining ten taels of silver were originally enough to use until the end of the year, but I also need to prepare a favor for the fourth master. You have taken such a big move, how can we live in the second half of the year?"

When Xu Xun heard that Ruisheng was well-organized, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. Although he was called Young Master now, if you talk about the situation, not to mention that he could not compare with the eldest son in his previous life, he was even worse than when he was the most down and outdated. But there were only a few people in the family, even if he used it flexibly, he had to pay the corresponding price. Although Jin Liu would not work hard in some things in order to have a place to settle down, it was a link between interests and interests. Only harm was not beneficial. Will people dive to save themselves when the ship sank?

Therefore, he raised his hand and signaled Ruisheng to sit down, and then spoke, "How much does it cost to stay?"

The words of us made Ruisheng feel a lot more comfortable. After calculating with his fingers, he said seriously: "There are four guan coins, one guan silver ingot of ten taels, and three guans of loose silver. Last year's new treasure banknote has about two hundred guans."

Although these are different measurement numbers, Xu Xun is no longer Chulin Guidi, and he has about the amount in his heart. One tael of silver is said to be exchanged for Yishen, but it is determined on the market. The value of 200 taels of treasure money is only about one tael of silver, not much. According to this calculation, the cash around him is only about twenty taels, which is equivalent to sixty stones of white rice, which is not small, but it is definitely not too much. If you blame someone in the past for being too prodigal, otherwise he would not be so nervous.

"It's okay, you will get what you want. Today is just a small amount of money. If you have to, even big profits are not allowed." Seeing that Ruisheng was anxious and had to persuade him again, Xu Xun yawned, "It's so late, what's the point tomorrow. By the way, you have worked hard today, and there is no reason to only reward six or not you. You can get a silver in the cash box and just take it as..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a gust of wind passing by his ears. When he turned his head, he saw that Ruisheng had already rushed out of the house angrily. After a moment of dazed, he couldn't help laughing and lay down with his hands on his pillow.

That Jin Liu is smart and smart, and it is not easy to use without money to handle it, but Ruisheng is loyal!

Early the next morning, Ruisheng, who had a bad time, appeared in front of Xu Xun on time, but he only spoke less. But after exercise and breakfast, Xu Xun, who had changed his clothes, picked up the cloth and asked someone to make a few short-sleeved single shirts, and he immediately shook his head into a rattle: "Don't waste money, just buy a piece of cloth. My mother taught me a tailor back then!"

"Okay, I'll leave it to you for the cloth and the tailor." Xu Xun gave all these trivial matters to Ruisheng without saying a word, then turned around and walked out. When he arrived at the door, he felt that his sleeve was being pulled. He turned his head and saw that Ruisheng was standing there with a discomfort. He smiled and said, "What, what else should I remind you?"

"How dare I tell the young master..." Ruisheng muttered in a slump, and then said, "Anyway, the young master is so sensible. Brother Jin Liu is not authentic. God knows what to use to deceive the young master. Don't believe everything he said."

"I know, I know."

Xu Xun simply wondered if this young boy who liked to nag at a young age was a man, so he agreed and immediately stepped out of the threshold. It was already early March, and Jiangnan said that it was spring and flowers blooming, but it was still warm and cold in the morning. Xu Xun Shi Shi came to the second gate and saw Jin Liu looking around in the yard outside. At this time, the steps that came forward were running fast.

It was probably because he had never been to go out with Xu Xun. Jin Liu was neatly packed today. His true label short shirt and a pair of thousand-layer cloth shoes were all washed clean and a small hat was buttoned on his head. After he stepped forward, he bowed with a smile, and then rolled up the sleeve tube halfway as if he was instinctively moving: "Young Master, we are..."
