Chapter 382 You Can't Take It With You When You Die

Zhou Shuren had already got into the carriage, but Chang Lian was still standing there stupidly, frowning, "Aren't you leaving?"

Chang Lian didn't have to wait for Mo's reply, and quickly got on the carriage when he came.

Divide the ink, "......"

Ever since the mistress went out, he found that the masters at home didn't dare to breathe, well, neither did they, the servants!

Back at Zhou Mansion, the whole family was waiting for dinner. Zhou Shuren was in a good mood. Not only did he get 20,000 taels of silver to build Lizhou, but he also refused to be solicited. Zhou Shuren thought of this year's tax, and the potatoes and sweet potatoes in the granary had been replaced by corn, etc. In the second half of the year, the merchants also collected a lot of tax for the food that could be stored. Although there were still some counties below that basically had no tax, the whole Lizhou was still good.

Zhou Shuren silently counted, seeing the Chinese New Year, I don't know if there is a year-end bonus or something, Zhou Shuren took a sip of wine, the emperor was so poor that he would light up the money, it would be nice to have a reward with a conscience, and the year-end bonus is not thought about it.

Zhou Shuren was in a good mood, and the atmosphere of eating in the main hall was also relaxed.

The only thing that is tangled up is Chang Lian. In the past, he only heard about how powerful the old man is, but now he saw it. He wanted to toast the old man, but he didn't dare to move his hands just around the corner, and he felt panicked.

What happened in the restaurant didn't have to wait until the next day, all the officials in Lizhou City knew about it.

Master Chen opened his mouth wide, "Say it again, I didn't hear you clearly."

The little guy fell silent, it's not that the lord didn't hear clearly, but he didn't believe it. The little guy learned it again, and he still felt a little emotional in his heart. Mr. Zhou is not only a good official, but also a kind of lover. He couldn't help but look at the master, his aunt It's all sent!

As for Mr. Zhou's claim that he heard it wrong, he didn't believe it. This was just deceiving the people who didn't understand.

Chen Chen waved the boy to go down, and when the boy left, he couldn't help but swear, "Zhou Shuren is amazing, he cheated him of 20,000 taels all at once."

Chen Chen thought about why Zhou Shuren dared to do this next time, and finally fell silent. Chen Chen became jealous. Zhou Shuren had the reputation of the common people and was valued by the emperor. This is Zhou Shuren's confidence.

He Mansion, Mr. He was speechless for a long time, he and Mr. Zhou are too far behind, but Mr. Zhou is really hurt, Mr. He is happy again, Mr. Zhou's reputation is too high, the faster he walks, but his heart is still sour It's so high that it's going to make people jealous!

Men think that Zhou Shuren is shameless and shameless, while women are jealous of Zhulan who is not at home. Zhulan has been envied by women in her hometown, and now she has become the object of envy of women in Lizhou City!

Zhulan really didn't know, but she felt that she sneezed a lot that night, so frightened Zhou Boss and Zhou Laoer kept asking if they had caught a cold, but Zhulan didn't believe it, Master Zhou insisted on calling for a doctor Come.

Zhulan was speechless, she didn't know if she had caught the cold or not, "Are you thinking I'm an idiot? I don't even know if I'm sick or not?"

Boss Zhou sent the doctor away, feeling at ease, "Mother, you should pity your son."

A few days before he left home, the old man kept scaring him!

Zhou Er Er didn't want to recall what his father had said to threaten them. They were really afraid that the old man would take care of them when they went home.

Zhulan, ".......Go back and rest!"

Early the next morning, as soon as Zhou Shuren arrived at the Yamen, he received a silver note of 20,000 taels, which he handed over to Mr. Chen for entry. "This time, I have the money to build the ice cellar."

Mr. Chen gave a thumbs up, "Mr. Zhou, I admire very few people. I really admire you. I am convinced, I am convinced."

Then he happily took away the bank notes. Although there was some money in the account, he had to send it back to a part of the capital.

There is not much on the books, who knows what will happen next year, he only worries about hair loss, now he has money.

Zhou Shuren drank tea, "Master Chen can admire Zhou more in the future."

He has many ways to steal money. If it wasn't for the fear of drawing too deep hatred, he would directly write down the matter of donating money to the emperor in his notebook. The value is too big, so I don't want it.

Mr. Chen looked at Mr. Zhou who was drinking tea speechlessly. The longer he got along with Mr. Zhou, the more he realized that Mr. Zhou's face was unusually thick.

Before noon, the reward team arrived. Zhou Shuren thanked him, looked at the many officers and soldiers in the team, and let out a sigh in his heart. They were not only here to give gifts, but also to collect taxes by the way.

After arranging the officials and others, Zhou Shuren doesn't care about the food, what he cares about is the house deed in his hand, by the way, there is also a whole piece of jade, which is really generous!

For such a large piece of top-notch jade, the whole carving is a treasure. However, Zhou Shuren squinted his eyes. He didn't plan to carve it and keep it as a family heirloom.

It would be good for him and Zhulan to save silver for the Zhou family, but also to save family heirlooms? Go ahead and dream, and even if you save, you can't guarantee Zhou's family's long-term wealth. I don't know who will be cheaper in the future. In addition, the treasures they saved can't be taken away after death, so it's better to enjoy them while they are alive.

This piece of jade, um, is enough to carve a small box of jewelry for Zhulan, and it’s all top-notch jade jewelry, so it’s very nice to bring it out. The only pity is that the emperor’s gift can’t be sold. If it is sold, it won’t be so hard for Zhulan Yes, Zhou Shuren thought in his heart that the emperor has no money, but he has a lot of treasures. Although sometimes he picks to death, as long as it is useful to the emperor, the emperor is still very generous.

Zhou Shuren is a man of action. There are many masters with excellent craftsmanship in Lizhou City. Zhou Shuren invited people to come over. He is going to make two sets first. It is less than one-third of the whole jade, and the remaining two-thirds are first-class bamboo. When Zhulan comes back, Zhulan can carve jewelry according to her own preferences.

The emperor didn't just reward Zhou Shuren, Master Chen, Master He and others also behaved well, rewarding some tangerines and a few decorations brought in as a tribute, and nothing else.

The two adults can't help it no matter how much old vinegar they drink, whoever made every policy of Lizhou City was proposed by Lord Zhou.

Zhulan’s side has already entered the southern boundary, and now Zhulan will continue to go south by boat. It’s the first time Zhulan has been on a boat in ancient times. It’s very novel, but soon it’s a little uncomfortable. It was a little big, and although it was going fast with the wind, it was shaking violently. In addition, Zhulan had never been on a boat before, so she was a little seasick.

Going south with the wind is really fast. Originally, it was expected that Zhulan would take three days to ride, but she arrived at the port in two days.

This is already the territory of the south. Although it is winter, the clothes are similar to the autumn clothes in the north. Zhulan is not going to continue going south. Jinzhou City is fine. Zhulan sits on the boat and looks at it. There are green vegetable fields on both sides. ,This is enough.

Living in an inn in Jinzhou City, the south is prosperous, the architecture is also exquisite, and the bamboo orchids are better. Since I was young and modern, I have come to Jiangnan.

Zhou Boss and Zhou Lao Er are bumpkins who have entered the city, and their eyes are not enough to see.

Zhulan calculated the distance. Originally, she expected to take a month, but she didn't expect it to be useless. Also, she changed her destination and stopped going south. Naturally, it won't take a month. Zhulan is happy, and she can do it as soon as possible. Some have gone home, yes, they are going home, the place with Zhou Shuren is her home.

Zhulan sent Housekeeper Ding and Zhou Laoer to go out for a walk. She just wanted to have a good rest. The room she chose was next to the street. Zhulan sat by the window and watched the pedestrians on the street.

The land in Jinzhou City is fertile, and because of the terrain, there are few floods. Zhulan is more and more satisfied with Jinzhou.

The prosperity of Jinzhou is justified. Unless there is a war, the general situation will not affect Jinzhou.
