Chapter 744: Method
There are also some women's fans, children's items, etc. The precious fabrics are the first to be processed. Zhou Shuren glanced at it, and the house was searched at that time. It was really clean.
Most of them are books. Ancient books have been disposed of long ago. These are all confiscated collections. Books are not necessarily precious, but they are large in quantity and various in variety.
Zhou Shuren exhaled, fortunately, the remaining things were within his tolerance, "Let's open the last room too."
Ambassador, "The last room is full of broken things."
Zhou Shuren, "Open it."
"yes."
The room was opened, and there was a musty smell. This warehouse is a bit messy!
The ambassador explained: "Some porcelain is fragile, and some are broken when brought back, but they cannot be taken away privately after being piled in the warehouse. Basically, the damaged ones have been piled up in this warehouse for more than ten years."
Uncle Zhou looked at the moth-eaten books, calligraphy and paintings, and there were quite a few, "These?"
The ambassador said: "These were damaged when the house was raided more than ten years ago. I heard that there were too many things at that time, and there were not enough people. The books were eaten by moths. The repairs cost a lot of money, which has been piling up. Now It’s just a simple moth prevention, as you can see, the damage is more serious, it is said that since Master Xiao appointed Shangshu, there has never been such a waste.”
Zhou Shuren was silent. More than ten years ago, when the dynasty was just established, many houses were copied, but, the last sentence, Mr. Xiao really knows how to live!
After reading it, Zhou Shuren knew what to do, and signaled to close the warehouse.
When Zhou Shuren returned to the house, Mr. Qiu said: "Shang Shu came to you just now and said that you came back to find him."
Zhou Shuren straightened his official uniform and drank another glass of water before going to see Master Xiao.
Xiao Qing raised his head when he heard the footsteps, and said without deviousness: "The Ministry of Household Dirt and Punishment Department doesn't have many valuable things anymore, and basically let this official deal with it."
He is a budget-minded person, so how could he ignore the Dirty Punishment Department? However, Zhou Shuren has noticed the Dirty Punishment Department since he took office, so he has a good brain.
Zhou Shuren smiled, "I never think that expensive things must be the most valuable."
Xiao Qing was still disappointed at first,
Now that I have interests, they are all at the level of foxes. Zhou Shuren can be valued by the emperor, and his mind is definitely not simple. "Tell me."
Zhou Shuren said politely: "The lower officials have some calculations in mind, but they haven't been counted yet, so adults need to agree."
Xiao Qing's mind is full of money, "Tell me first."
Zhou Shuren said: "The lower officials need to count how many books are stored in the warehouse, and how many books, calligraphy and paintings are lost."
Xiao Qing said: "The household department has no money to replace damaged books, calligraphy and paintings."
He was also very heartbroken for the damage, but there was really no money to make it up, and it was not the original one after it was made up, and the value was also discounted, cough, and it was too time-consuming.
"The officer knows."
He knew that the current household department was about to vomit blood!
Xiao Qing stared at Zhou Shuren, he didn't know what Zhou Shuren was up to, but as long as there was a way, he was willing to try, "In the morning, you will see what you want, but, Shuren, the emperor values you very much, Ben The official also values you, sometimes you only have one chance, you have to think clearly."
Zhou Shuren heard Shangshu's reminder, "I have thought it over clearly."
"That's good."
He has said everything that should be said, and reminded him of what should be reminded, which makes Zhou Shuren pleasing to the eye, otherwise, he would not have said the last sentence.
Zhou Shuren retreated, and as soon as he entered the room, Master Qiu raised his head, "Shang Shu arranged for you?"
Zhou Shuren smiled, "No, I just chatted with me."
Mr. Qiu didn't believe it. It seemed that it was the end of the month, and the monthly salary would be paid in a few days. They were all waiting for the money. Mr. Xiao didn't have time to talk to Zhou Shuren just to chat.
Zhou Shuren sat on the seat, his mind was empty. The Xu family has been doing overseas business. After the Zhou family entered Beijing, the Xu family came to visit. Zhulan said that since the Xu family joined the prince, they are not only in the food business, but also in the jewelry business. North Korea jewelry is quite popular overseas, especially the more complicated jewelry sells better.
There are a lot of jewelry in the warehouse. The style in this dynasty is old, but it is new overseas. Some that can be refurbished have been refurbished, and some that cannot be refurbished have been melted down and redone, and then sold to sea merchants, which is not a small sum of money.
As for the books, Zhou Shuren picked up the pen and had already thought about it. Don't worry, he has to wait for the statistical data.
In the imperial palace, the emperor looked at the report, which was reported by Xiao Qing, and he knew if Xiao Qing didn't report it, "You should read it too!"
The crown prince quickly browsed through, "What is Zhou Shuren's plan?"
The warehouse, he also went to see it, and it was worth some silver, but he couldn't convert hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.
The emperor was quite looking forward to it, "For so many years, Zhou Shuren has never done anything unprepared, maybe it will turn waste into treasure."
The prince smiled, "If it really becomes a treasure, then it must be a good idea."
"We'll find out later."
Don't let him down, once this disappointment, the trust level will not be as high as it is now.
In the Zhou mansion, Zhulan went to the big house, and Mrs. Li was looking at the account book. Her eyes were not very big, but she squinted them, and she was a little fatter. She could hardly see her eyes.
Zhulan, "But what don't you understand?"
Mrs. Li thought she was hallucinating, so she suddenly raised her head and it was really her mother-in-law, "Mother, why are you here?"
"Ah, I'm here to see what you don't understand, and I'll wait for Yulu to come back from school by the way."
Mrs. Li put down the account book, "Mother, my daughter-in-law is good at accounting, and I can understand the account book."
Zhulan, "It's good if you can see clearly."
"Mother, what do you want Yulu to do?"
Zhulan sat down and said: "The last time I went to Wang's mansion, Mrs. Wang mentioned Yulu. Now that your father-in-law has taken office, I should also take Yulu to Wang's mansion."
She had always remembered what she had promised back then, but she couldn't break her promise.
Mrs. Li became nervous, "Mother, does Mrs. Wang dislike Yulu?"
She was born as a peasant girl, rough and unrestrained, she was afraid that the old lady would dislike her daughter.
Zhulan still has confidence, she helped Yulu gain a lot of goodwill, "Don't be nervous, the old lady is very kind, I will help you choose clothes and jewelry later, I will be here."
Mrs. Li calmed down, her mother-in-law is here!
Zhulan came here according to the time, and Yulu came back after a while. The little girl has a calm temperament, and her temperament has been cultivated, which makes people feel comfortable.
Seeing grandma, Yulu said sweetly, "Grandma."
Zhulan pulled Yulu over, "Is there anything Mr. Today taught you that you don't understand?"
Yulu replied, "Today is the first day of class resumption. The teacher didn't teach anything new, so he has been reviewing."
Zhulan looked at the confidence in the little girl's eyebrows, and thought to herself, Mrs. Wang would like Yulu, and then she told her about going to Wang's mansion. Seeing that her granddaughter was not surprised, she accepted it calmly. Zhulan smiled, this girl I have known for a long time that I will go to Wang Mansion.
Zhulan said: "Grandma will help you choose clothes and jewelry, let's go to your boudoir."
Yulu is not nervous, she knows that sooner or later she will go to the Wang Mansion, since it is inevitable, she just needs to show her best side.
