Chapter 758 Reward
After dinner, Zhou Shuren took his son to the study and checked the progress of his grandchildren. He was so busy these days that he seldom went home and neglected his children a lot.
Zhulan went back to the house, and took out the box containing the bank notes. There were not many bank notes in the box, so she took them out and counted them. After counting the broken silver, there were less than seven hundred taels left, so she took out five at once. One hundred taels, less than two hundred taels left, I haven't felt that the money is not enough for a long time.
Recently, he spent a lot of money in the capital, and Zhou Shuren doubled his monthly salary for his promotion, so his money is a little tight.
Although the guests received a lot of gifts, they were all goods and could not be used as money. This amount of money was really not enough until the autumn harvest, and the cost of the capital was too high.
When Zhou Shuren came back, he saw the silver note on the table, and only took four hundred taels of silver note, "I haven't had a chance to use the silver I gave you last time, so four hundred taels is enough."
Zhulan said, "Put it all together. I didn't have a chance before. It's because the household department is busy. After a while, the household department will relax. Treating guests is a must."
"I don't have much money at home!"
Zhu Lan, "Don't worry about your family. I'll send Butler Ding to the fishing ground tomorrow. I'll get some money from the fish in the ice cellar."
Zhou Shuren, "Take care of it in advance!"
"Yeah, originally I wanted to wait until the end of the year to deal with it, and sell it for a good price during the Chinese New Year, but now the family needs money."
Zhou Shuren put the silver ticket in his purse, "It's a pity to deal with it in advance."
Zhulan was also in pain, "The price of fish is cheap now, and I lost a lot of money!"
Zhou Shuren took off his coat and said, "My salary is not worth it."
"It's very useful, without your salary, the family's money would have bottomed out long ago."
Seeing Mrs. Song and the girl come in, Zhou Shuren said quietly: "I'm old, I can't slow down staying up all night, and I can't make up for this painstaking effort. Fortunately, I finally got over it, and I can sleep more comfortably in the future."
Zhulan covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, looked at the servant girl, this person is miserable, "I haven't seen the master these few days, why do you think the master's hair is much grayer?"
After a pause, she told Mrs. Song, "Make black rice porridge tomorrow morning."
Mrs. Song, "Yes."
Zhou Shuren washed his hands, "I also lost a lot of hair!"
Zhulan felt distressed in cooperation, "Then I need to mend it well, no matter how I look at it, the master seems to have lost weight."
Zhou Shuren, "...um."
Mrs. Song and the girl went down, and Zhulan stopped performing. When the footsteps left, Zhulan lowered her voice, "You want to be rewarded for being miserable?"
Zhou Shuren took off his shoes and said: "Well, don't have too much hope, it all depends on the emperor, but I don't think there is much hope, the officials of the household department have all contributed, the chance of rewarding me alone is too low, even if I want to It’s a good idea, but I work in the household department, and these are what I should do.”
Zhulan pulled the pillow, "I didn't hold out any hope either, it's good for you to be miserable, so as not to think that you are made of iron."
These days, she could see her husband's exhaustion, and she felt distressed.
Zhou Shuren lay down, "It's still comfortable at home."
Zhulan went down to the ground and blew out the candles, "Then have a good rest."
Zhou Shuren fell asleep soon,
He is not very reliable in the household department, he has no wife by his side, he has too many things on his mind, and he has never had much rest.
The next day, at the Ministry of Households, Zhou Shuren had just arrived at the Ministry of Households, and there was a queue at the Ministry of Households. It could be seen from the clothes that the queues were all merchants, and the rewards from the Xu family stimulated the merchants.
Zhou Shuren entered the household department, and the yard has already started working.
After waiting for a while, the various ministries came to send the donated silver. Although it was not as good as the merchants, it was still a considerable amount of silver, not counting the emperor's one hundred thousand taels, the crown prince gave ten thousand taels, and several princes five thousand taels. The duke, lord, etc. did not surpass the prince.
Xiao Qing felt that this was the happiest day since becoming Minister of the Household Department.
In the afternoon, the money donated by each merchant was reduced. Some of these people were small merchants, and some felt that most of them had been donated.
Zhou Shuren counted the amount, "Master Shangshu, this is the amount donated this morning."
Xiao Qing took it over and took a look, "1,655,000 taels of silver, this is just the morning's taels of silver."
Zhou Shuren, "Yes."
Counting the Xu family's money, it's more than two million taels, which is a huge amount.
After Xiao Qing got excited, "This amount cannot be known to outsiders, otherwise, there will be more reasons to ask for money."
Zhou Shuren got up, "My lord, I'm going back first."
"good."
As soon as Zhou Shuren left the door, he saw Eunuch Liu, "Why did Eunuch come to the household department?"
Eunuch Liu said politely: "The miscellaneous family is here to pass on the emperor's oral instructions."
Zhou Shuren heard it, "Elder-in-law please, Lord Shangshu is here."
Eunuch Liu nodded, "My lord, please do your work first."
Not long after Zhou Shuren returned to the house, Master Shangshu called the household officials of the fourth grade and above to go over.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Xiao Qing said: "The emperor has noticed the hard work of the household department. There are rewards from all the household department. According to the grade, the rewards are three hundred taels of silver for the third grade and from the third grade, and three hundred taels of silver for the fourth grade." From the fourth rank to two hundred taels, from the fifth rank to one hundred taels from the fifth rank, from the sixth rank to fifty taels from the seventh rank, from the eighth rank to twenty taels from the ninth rank, all the grades are ten taels of silver."
Xiao Qing paused and continued: "The right servant, Zhou Shuren, has just taken office, but he solved the problem of money shortage in the household department. The emperor rewarded the right servant with two hundred taels. I hope that the right servant can continue to work hard for the court."
Zhou Shuren hurriedly thanked him, but thought in his heart, the emperor really knows how to count, and the five hundred taels happened to be the silver he donated!
This was a happy event for the household department, and soon spread throughout the household department.
Zhou Shuren calculated an account, the Department of Accounts has the most departments in the Six Departments, and the Department of Accounts has the most officials in the Six Departments, especially those from the sixth grade, so the Department of Accounts donated the most money, and the account was settled soon. The emperor rewarded only two-thirds of the donation!
The emperor is the emperor!
In the evening, when Zhou Shuren came back, Zhulan still asked expectantly, "Is there any?"
Zhou Shuren took out the bank note and handed it to his wife, "Yes."
Zhulan's eyes were full of surprises, that there really was one, and then she was stunned, and counted five hundred taels of silver tickets as a reward, "This?"
Zhou Shuren changed his clothes, "The entire household department has been rewarded......"
After Zhulan finished listening, "... I'm convinced."
Zhou Shuren asked, "You didn't send the housekeeper to the fishery, did you?"
"Not yet. I said I don't look forward to it, but I still have expectations in my heart, so I thought about it for a day or two, so I thought about it for two days before letting the housekeeper go."
Zhou Shuren smiled, "With this money, it should be enough."
Zhulan smiled, "Including your salary, it's all enough."
Yaohou Mansion, Yao Yao is ready to go home, today she accompanied her mother to guard her younger brother for a day, the younger brother was tricked, and finally went out to get some fresh air, and was pushed out of the gazebo, his forehead hit a stone, and he was still in a coma.
Yao Yao got up, "Mother, my daughter is going back first, come back tomorrow."
Bai's eyes were swollen from crying, and his voice was hoarse, "Okay."
Yao Yao glanced at her younger brother and regretted it in her heart. If it wasn't for the medicine she gave, her younger brother would not have been weak and killed. He walked in a daze and didn't look at the road. When he bumped into a servant at the door, the dowry girl hurriedly supported her, "Miss , all right!"
Yao Yao frowned and stared at the servant who was taken away by the housekeeper, this person looked familiar.
