Chapter 261 Where Is the Money?

When returning to the city, somehow, Qin Yu and Lu Xiao, the two little brats, got into a fight.

"This is my sixth aunt!" Qin Yu hugged her left leg and emphasized.

Lu Xiao also hugged her right leg, "This is my aunt, my dear aunt."

"My dear aunt is also my dear aunt."

Qin Sheng, who was standing aside, widened his eyes. He wanted to say, get out of the way, this is my wife!

With both legs hugged, Lu Songli couldn't walk.

Qin Sheng picked up a child in each hand and sent them back to their parents, and gave them a look to let them take care of their children.

Qin Sheng returned to Lu Songli with empty hands, stretched out his hand to protect his wife and walked forward, "Let's go."

Qin Zhao: Promising!

Jiang was very happy to see her daughter and son-in-law like this.

When they arrived outside the city gate, everyone began to line up to enter the city.

Lv Songli took a quick look and found that there were about 300 people who followed the Qin and Lv families to settle in Houcheng. Among them, there were more than 40 children under the age of ten, and more than 10 people between the ages of ten and fourteen.

This number is clear after a little thought. Most of those who are willing to follow them, such as Zhou Da and Ma Jin, are in their prime, or have not married, or have just married for a few years, and their children are just a few years old and are still young. Most of these older children over ten years old are their younger brothers or nephews.

Lv Songli thought that with so many children, they had to build a private school. If they don't cultivate young trees, they will not become useful. It won't work if they are allowed to play around.

There were about 300 people in their group, and it took a lot of time to register in the city.

When they entered the city, they were also very large. When the people of Houcheng saw them, they couldn't help but ask a question or two. Recently, some people have moved back to Houcheng, but it is rare to see such a large group of people moving to Houcheng at the same time. Moreover, seeing their carriages carrying a lot of luggage and bringing their families into the city, they did not look like they were just passing by.

Lu Songli and the others did not hide it and directly said that it was Lord Lu's clansmen who moved to Houcheng to settle down.

After the news spread, the people of Houcheng seemed to have taken a reassurance pill.

Let's all live in Houcheng with peace of mind, and call back the relatives who have fled from other places, Houcheng is safe. Just imagine, if it is not safe, how could Lord Lu move all his clansmen here?

More than 300 people, about 50 or 60 households, were arranged to live in Tianshui Village. The houses are divided by households, and the houses with more people are larger, and the houses with fewer people are smaller.

This is the official allocation.

All the houses have been inspected before to ensure that they are solid and safe. If there are damaged roofs, doors and windows, they have also been simply repaired.

If you are not satisfied, you can find another place to live or exchange it privately. They don't care.

Just when everyone was busy moving into their new residence, Yang Wei, Wu Ren and Hu Guangcong came to Lv Songli and the others with a box.

"Prince, Sixth Madam, Third Master, Sixth Master, this is the money we earned this time. For convenience, we have converted all of it into gold."

"Except for the two brothers who did not come to Houcheng, we gave them their share of silver, and also gave Lord Lv three thousand taels of silver as you ordered.

The rest are all here."

"How much is it in total?"

"About 52,600 taels, all converted into gold."

Lv Songli calculated that they had invested less than 20,000 taels of silver at the beginning. Some of the medicinal materials were sent to Longcheng, and she bought them at a price 20% higher than the cost.

Is this three or four times more?

"Sixth Madam, you don't know that our medicinal materials were very popular when they were transported to Chang'an, and they were snapped up. Let alone the price we sold them at that time, even if we increased it by 20% or 30%, it would be no problem." It can be said to be a huge profit!

Until now, the three of them could not hide their excitement.

Lv Songli nodded, and she looked at Qin Heng, "Big brother, third brother, what A Sheng and I mean is that this money should be divided among the brothers, right? It's just right for them to settle down."

Later, they each invested 1,000 taels. At the beginning, it was agreed that this silver and the money earned would be divided among Zhou Da and other brothers who went to the northern border to escort Qin Yan and his party.

Qin Heng nodded, "Okay, let's do it."

Qin Zhao: "I have no problem."

Qin Sheng: "Listen to Lili."

They did it as soon as they said it. They immediately beat gongs and drums, gathered people, and started to divide the money!

Lv Songli and other decision-makers did not participate in the distribution this time, so the amount of silver distributed to each household was relatively even, about 600 taels.

Before dividing the money, Lv Songli suggested taking out 4,000 to 5,000 taels as the cost of maintaining the village. In the future, if the villagers living in Tianshui Village have any public expenses, they will directly spend them from this silver. This is better than asking people to pay for it later.

Every household got money, and no one minded the four or five thousand taels that were taken away, not to mention that Mrs. Qin Liu said that this money was for the public expenditure of Tianshui Village, and all this money would be used for them.

At night, back to the Houcheng military camp

After taking a bath, Lu Songli wiped her hair by the window in the room.

In the room, the oil lamp was burning.

Her eyes fell on the white paper on the table. Recently, Lu Songli has been thinking about how to manage Liaodong County well.

Yes, manage Liaodong County, not Houcheng.

She thought that the court's commendation should come soon. With her father's merits, he must be promoted again. If her father is promoted again, he will be the county governor.

Regarding the negotiation, the absence of the governor and the governor of Liaodong County, no matter what the reason, is an established fact. For the court, the governor's office is in Liaoxi County, which is acceptable, but Zheng Xun is definitely derelict in his duty.

Therefore, Lu Songli speculated that her father should be the next governor of Liaodong County.

Zheng Xun will be transferred to another place.

To manage Liaodong County well, we must first encourage spring ploughing, and it is best to distribute some seeds to poor people who cannot afford grain seeds to help them tide over the difficulties. As for whether to plant some suitable economic crops later? Let's think about it.

But her father saw that the treasury of Houcheng County Government was so empty that mice could run away. Houcheng is a poor county.

Secondly, she also wanted to repair the official road. After all, a large number of zombies, no, a large number of talents are on the way to their Liaodong County. Serve these people well, make sure they feel at home, and spread the good reputation of Liaodong County. Of course, it is best to keep these people.

This is really a headache because it costs money everywhere.

They spent a lot of silver to negotiate with the Xianbei royal court this time. Her box of top-quality gems was spent, and the box that her elder brother gave her was also exchanged for money, and she spent a lot of silver.

But Lu Songli felt that these gold, silver, jewelry and money were worth spending, after all, they took over the entire Liaodong County.

Qin Sheng came in and saw her knocking on her forehead, and couldn't help asking with concern, "Lili, do you have a headache?"

"Yes, a headache, how can I get money quickly?" Lu Songli said unconsciously.

Qin Sheng blinked when he heard it. His wife has no money to spend? How can this be possible!

"Lili, what do you say, I lead the troops to clear the mountain bandits in Liaodong County?" This is the fastest way he can think of to make money.

"Suppress the bandits?" Lu Songli's eyes lit up.

Because of years of war, there are many bandits in Liaodong County.

There is no way. In Houcheng, the common people are the lowest class. Even the bandits live better than them. For example, if they encounter Xianbei soldiers, the common people may not survive, but the bandits can take up weapons and defeat them.

But these bandits often cause trouble to the village.

Lu Songli praised, "Good idea, eliminate the banditry and give the common people a bright and clear sky, very good."

Qin Sheng jumped for joy, "Really?"

"Of course, you tell this idea to our father, and then let him help you talk to Lord Le. It should be no problem."

"Okay, Lili, don't worry about the silver." Next, you will have a lot of silver.

"Okay, I won't worry." What is faster than making money from the thieves?

The couple smiled at each other.
