Chapter 1489 Calculating

Zhulan didn't know about the affairs of the early court, she was very busy, and when she left the palace, she sent people out of Beijing to check on the three Zhuangzi, and also prepared the supplies donated by her family.

As soon as she arrived home, she received a lot of donation orders. The Ning family was from the empress dowager's mother's family, so naturally they followed the queen mother closely.

It's just that the background of Ran's family is still a little bit worse, and it is not conspicuous in the donation list.

This time the donation was made in the family unit, the Ning clan had a low-key and profound heritage, Zhulan was very moved when she saw the donation list, and she donated 20,000 taels of silver alone.

The list of donations needs to be counted, and the bamboo orchids were handed over to the daughter-in-law and granddaughter, who were all cultivated by her, and they really helped her a lot.

Liu Jia went back to her natal family and accompanied Mrs. Ma back.

Liu Jia handed over the list of donations from her natal family, "Grandma, these are materials donated by the Liu family."

Zhulan picked it up and glanced at it. It was embarrassing for the Liu family. When Liu Jia got married, she almost wiped out the Liu family's wealth. Last year, the Wen family took the lead in donating a handful, and the Liu family also donated some when she held a painting exhibition. This time, they donated again. , the Liu family is not easy.

Zhulan picked up a pen and scratched some on the list, and said under Mashi's surprised eyes: "This is enough."

At first glance, this list exceeded the scope of the Liu family's tolerance.

Ma Shi's ears turned red, hey, she pays attention to the right family, the Liu family is still a bit inferior among Zhouhou's in-laws, in order to make her daughter look good on both sides, she racked her brains to think about this list, if it wasn't for her second daughter-in-law, the list would have Even worse.

Liu Jia breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't agree with her mother to save face for her, but her mother just refused to listen.

Mrs. Zhao glanced at it, lowered her head and continued to record, but she was thinking about her son-in-law, hey, I have to donate even if I am not in the capital, so as not to give up the truth.

Zhulan was busy until night, her forehead and neck were almost stiff, looking at the thick list, the workload was not small.

Zhou Shuren came back and took the recorded booklet. After looking through it, he was not surprised, "I donated 120,000 taels of silver today?"

Zhulan rubbed her neck, "Is it a lot?"

"A lot indeed."

Zhulan sneered, "What is most lacking now is supplies, among which food is the most scarce. Some people will really get in the way, and they only donate money, without food and other supplies at all."

Zhou Shuren raised his eyebrows, "Sure enough, it doesn't stop."

"Fortunately, we have built a foundation of allies after so many years of operation. With your identity, the donated materials are not bad."

Zhou Shuren put down the brochure, "They must not have imagined that you are short of start-up money."

The coldness on Zhulan's face disappeared.

Smiling brows and eyes crooked, "Yeah, they made a mistake. With the start-up money, I can buy Zhuangzi, land, and build a greenhouse. In fact, what I lack the most is money."

Zhou Shuren hooked the corner of his mouth, "Tomorrow I will stimulate Mr. Wen again, and there will be more money."

Zhulan, "Well, I believe in your acting skills."

Zhou Shuren massaged his daughter-in-law's neck, "Don't be too tired."

"There are too many people waiting to see my jokes, so as to hit you, the first private orphanage, I must run it beautifully."

Zhou Shuren's brows and eyes were gentle, "Okay."

The next day, Zhou Shuren's face was dark in the early morning, Mr. Wen squinted his eyes, and there was no superfluous expression on his face, but from his relaxed attitude, he could see his good mood.

There are still many people in the Wen family who did not donate. Seeing Zhou Hou's face is ugly today, they thought the plan was successful.

The prince looked at his grandfather sympathetically, and suffered a lot, why didn't he have a long memory!

After the morning court was over, Mrs. Wen nodded to Zhou Shuren, and then led the people away with a brisk footstep.

Zhou Shuren stood still, Wang Juo came over, "What happened?"

Zhou Shuren said indifferently: "Some people remember to eat but not beat."

Wang Zuo, "Huh?"

Zhou Shuren's voice was too low for no one to hear him, and he motioned for Wang Jue to follow. Zhou Shuren only told about the donation when the two left the palace.

Wang Juo, "This is a joke waiting to be seen by the Zhou family!"

The Yang family is on errand, and sooner or later it will spread throughout the states with the speed of the spread. If the private orphanage is successful, it will be a big blow to the Zhou family if it is not successful. Everything is a double-edged sword, especially for women. There were constant turmoil from the beginning, and if it really didn't work out, he would be really worried for the Zhou family.

Seeing Wang Jue's serious face, Zhou Shuren said, "Are you scared?"

Wang Jue pressed the space between his eyebrows, "I'll send someone back to prepare some supplies."

The smile on Zhou Shuren's face deepened, "No, in fact, the folk orphanage is very short of money as a start-up fund. The Wen family's calculations have actually helped my wife. However, the Wang family's help is indeed needed. My wife has sent people to various states to buy Zhuangzi. , the Wang family's connections are in the state to help manage it."

Wang Zuo came back to his senses, "Are you afraid that the Wen family will stop you privately?"

"Well, let them be proud now, take advantage of the time difference, and buy all Zhuangzi first."

He and his wife wrote a lot of letters last night, hey, the Zhou family is still too slow to get up, if the Zhou family has children who are officials in various states, it will be easier for them to do things.

Wang Jue doesn't have much confidence in the Yang family, and the ideas he has cultivated since childhood will not change easily. The Wang family trusts Zhou Shuren and thinks that Zhou Shuren is behind the scenes. , I think Zhou Shuren loves Yang too much.

Now that Zhou Shuren said it was Yang's idea, he was stunned, "You didn't lie to me?"

Zhou Shuren rolled his eyes, "My wife is really no worse than me."

The lady used her ability to make the entire royal family trust her. No matter how much the royal family trusted him, it would not be because he trusted the lady. The lady proved herself with her strength.

Wang Juo was in a daze, especially after hearing some of the later plans, his heart was extremely complicated.

Zhou Shuren snorted, what is going on here, the book compiled by the lady has not yet been published to the world.

In the Zhou family, Mrs. Li frowned, "Mother, there are more money donated today, please take a look at the bank notes."

Zhulan raised her eyebrows, and said to Su Xuan: "You send someone to buy glass with money, and then find the craftsman who built the greenhouse."

Su Xuan, "I'll make arrangements now."

Then Zhulan said to the female officer: "You still need to go to Zhuangzi to collect supplies."

The female officer got the queen mother's will and obeyed Mrs. Zhouhou's words. She represented the queen mother, and she watched the supplies go into storage. No one dared to do anything with the supplies, "Yes."

Mrs. Li helped her mother to sit down, "Daughter-in-law thought it would be easy to run an orphanage!"

In just two days, she was so busy that she became dizzy.

Zhulan, "Everything is difficult at the beginning, but it will be fine in the future."

After a pause, he said to Mrs. Zhao: "Record all the accounts clearly, and write down the source of every sum of money in detail."

Mrs. Zhao has the most meticulous heart, and it is the most suitable for keeping accounts.

In the restaurant, Changli didn't sleep all night. The rescued boy had a fever, and his son also had a fever last night. After drinking the soup, he guarded without daring to rest. He raised his hand to touch his son's red face, feeling extremely distressed. .

I came back too late today, so I only wrote one chapter, three chapters tomorrow, and one chapter in the morning.
