Chapter 888 No way
One of the two small boxes contained six books, the other contained three paintings, and the others were gone!
Zhou Shuren looked at the empty space in the box, and he thought there could still be two books and one painting!
In the palace, the emperor asked the little eunuch Zhou Shuren's expression carefully, and asked twice, and finally let the little eunuch go down with satisfaction.
The prince wanted to laugh, but finally held it back. His father said that he didn't care about Rong Chuan's fawning over Zhou Shuren, but he remembered it in his heart, so he got it back from the reward.
The emperor is in a good mood, indeed, a large amount of money has been credited, and the antique calligraphy and paintings from the house can also get a large amount of money, "The fourth brother has made a great contribution this time."
The prince didn't care, "This time the fourth child did suffer a lot."
Don't think that as a prince, no one dares to touch you. When the fourth child was in Jianghuai, he was almost not poisoned. He was poisoned by a strong poison, and even experienced several assassinations. If it weren't for the large number of people sent by the father, the fourth child would have confessed to Jianghuai .
The emperor didn't talk about the fourth child, "The second child seems to be quite free these days."
Prince, "He just wants to know the exact news about Feng Wang."
The emperor hummed, and then stopped reading the scriptures.
The prince's eyes were on the booklet, but there was still pressure in his heart. He told himself over and over again, don't panic, sooner or later his younger brothers will become kings, and he will be on the throne in the future.
In the evening, after Zhou's family had dinner, Chang Lian and Chang Zhi stayed in their parents' house, and the two brothers stared at the opened box.
Zhou Shuren leisurely took out a book and flipped through it, and he was fascinated very quickly. Fortunately, the emperor picked out all treasures, so he didn't fool him on it.
Chang Lian wanted to reach out to grab it, but he didn't dare, so he pushed his fourth brother and beckoned you to go.
Changzhi also had itchy hands, but he was a little speechless. The third brother didn't dare, let alone him. Fortunately, his brain turned quickly, and when he saw his mother come out, he said, "Mother."
It was the first time Zhulan heard the fourth child calling her so sweetly, and seeing Changzhi eagerly looking at the book, she chuckled, "Just take the book you like."
Chang Lian quickly reached out, mother spoke well, and mother agreed, father will definitely not refute, but father is too bad, just now he deliberately greedy them, "Thank you mother."
Zhou Shuren looked at the lady accusingly,
He hasn't played enough yet!
Zhulan glared at Zhou Shuren, what time is it.
Zhou Shuren rubbed his nose, put down the book in his hand, and said to his two sons, "I'll take it back to read after I've chosen, and I'll put the rest in the study."
Chang Lian and Chang Zhi said in unison: "Thank you, father."
Zhou Shuren waved his hand, "Hurry up and go."
The two of them took the book and flew away, afraid that they would regret it if they stayed a little longer.
Zhou Shuren waited for the two sons to run away, and he could still hear their noises in the yard, and his tone was a little disgusted, "He is now a father, but he is like a child."
Zhulan was happy to hear that, "That's because they have a good relationship, the two of them didn't know how to fight before."
Zhou Shuren thought about it, and felt that he was very tall, "My education method is good."
Zhulan coughed, "All the credit is yours?"
Zhou Shuren felt a bit doggy, "No, it's all from the lady, the lady's."
Zhulan turned around, "I feel like I've lost weight, don't you think so?"
Zhou Shuren didn't dare to tell the truth, his wife really didn't lose weight, "Ah, she lost weight."
"Your tone is a bit hesitant."
"No, you've definitely lost weight."
Zhulan was discouraged, "Why is it so hard to lose weight now!"
Zhou Shuren said quietly: "Why is it so hard for me to gain weight?"
Zhulan, "...I think it's better for us to sleep in separate rooms today, what do you think?"
Zhou Shuren quickly ran back to the bedroom, took off his coat and got into bed, tightly closed his eyes, anyway, he would sleep in different rooms if he was beaten to death.
Zhulan snorted, "You have nothing to say?"
Zhou Shuren opened his eyes secretly, "I hope all the flesh on your body will come to me, and I will share it for my wife."
Zhulan was quite satisfied with this statement, "Okay, you are allowed to sleep in the room."
"Thank you, my lord, for the large number."
The next day, Master Xiao went to the morning court together today, and the emperor left Master Xiao and Zhou Shuren behind.
The emperor said: "This time there are a lot of antique calligraphy and paintings, what better way can the two lovers do?"
Zhou Shuren said, isn't it because the quantity is too large and you don't want to deal with it cheaply!
Xiao Qing was in a bit of a dilemma. He had just processed a batch a few days ago, but this time the volume was really large, and the warehouse that the Ministry of Accounting was cleaning up could not fit it.
Xiao Qing, "After the Chinese New Year, we will ship them to Jiangnan and process them in batches."
The emperor was dissatisfied with this method, "How about sending some inferior antiques overseas?"
Zhou Shuren replied, "Jewelry, fabrics, spices, rouge and gouache are popular overseas!"
Antiques, the current overseas is really unpopular, they think it is modern, and they all say antiques in the flourishing age, many overseas countries have never been safe, where there is so much money to buy a decoration, it is better to buy more food!
The emperor was very curious, "Then what can Ai Qing do?"
Zhou Shuren really has it, I don’t want to say, whoever asked the emperor to pick it up, yesterday was too stingy, "Master Qiu is in charge of dealing with antique calligraphy and paintings. I haven't touched them yet, so I can't do anything about them."
The emperor was heartbroken, he only believed half of Zhou Shuren's words, but Zhou Shuren's expression was too sincere, "Xiao Aiqing, you go back and think about it, what a good way to do it."
Xiao Qing, "Yes."
After leaving the government hall, Zhou Shuren's mind was a little wandering. The emperor had really dealt with too many antique calligraphy and paintings in the past few years. In a circle in the capital, officials did not dare to buy more, even if the household department dealt with them cheaper than the market price, But it also costs a lot of money. If you buy it too many times, tell everyone that my family has money.
So the question is, where did so much money come from?
Merchants do have money, but they are not willing to buy antique calligraphy and paintings.
Soon after leaving the palace, Xiao Qing said: "The jewelry fabrics that were confiscated this time can be sent overseas."
Zhou Shuren nodded, "Overseas have always admired domestic jewelry. Even if the price has dropped a bit from the beginning, it is still much higher than domestic ones. Excluding expenses, it is much more profitable than domestic depreciation."
Xiao Qing said again: "Some books that are not ancient books will be counted and put in the library when I go back."
Zhou Shuren wrote it down, "When I get back, I'll have someone check it out."
Xiao Qing looked at Zhou Shuren, "You really have nothing good to do?"
Zhou Shuren couldn't say it. He didn't admit it in front of the emperor just now, but he admitted it to Master Xiao, and the emperor still didn't keep his account. "I haven't contacted him, so I really don't have any good ideas at the moment."
Xiao Qing couldn't see what Zhou Shuren was doing now, so he nodded, "Qiu Yan has cultivated for the past two days, you should take more care of yourself, you're tired."
Zhou Shuren bowed his head, "You are the one who has worked hard, what a lower official should do."
In Xiao Qing's heart, Zhou Shuren is the most cunning one, he tells you to catch the tail, you can catch it, otherwise, you can only watch!
Back at the household department, Zhou Shuren called Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang asked, "My lord, do you have an errand for me?"
