Chapter 372

And for the third time, after sending Qin Zhun away, Qin Jiu’s little face glowed with joy as she read and re-read the deeds, thinking that her business was really profitable!

“Third sister, you really...” Qin Zeyu wanted to say that his sister was a money grabber, but when the words came to his lips, he changed them stiffly to, “smart!”

“That’s right!” Qin Jiu boasted while solemnly and seriously putting the deed into the wooden box. In just a few days, that same wooden box was half filled with the deeds Qin Zhun himself sent over to her door.

In Qin Jiu’s eyes, these few deeds were simply mountains of gold and silver!

As she closed the box, she casually asked Qin Zeyu, “A’yu, is our Qin family so rich?”

When they split up, the eldest house was given 70% of the property, and Qin Jiu already think it was a lot. So, she really didn’t expect Qin Zhun to come up with so many properties to sell.

Qin Jiu was present when they split the family properties, and she clearly remembered the three commercial buildings in Minzhou that Qin Zhun kept, and for that reason he converted a large amount of land to the eldest house but these two banks were never mentioned when they split from the family.

“Of course!” Qin Zeyu nodded vigorously, his eyes shining similar to Qin Jiu’s.

If his sister asked something else, he might not be able to answer, but with this simple question, he still knows something about his own family.

“Our Qin family used to be salt merchants in the previous dynasty... “Qin Zeyu had a rare opportunity to tell people about his family’s history of prosperity, and it was even rarer for his sister to sought him about this, so he couldn’t help but be enthusiastic and talked eloquently.

Their Qin family, whose ancestors were from Jiangnan, has been a salt merchant for several generations in the previous dynasty. Salt was a profitable business, and because of this the Qin family became a well-known rich merchant in Jiangnan. With money, they want power, but according to the laws of the previous dynasty, merchants were lower class, and were not allowed to participate in the imperial examinations.

In the last years of the previous dynasty, the world was in turmoil, the □□ Emperor raised a rebellion, which everyone responded, and the Qin family’s ancestor, Qin Minzhong scattered all the family assets to bet on the □□ Emperor. After betting on the right dragon, he became one of the founding ministers.

Seeing the naughty kid staring at her, Qin Jiu thought there was something on her mouth and subconsciously raised her hand to touch the corner of her mouth, only to find it clean.

She raised her hand across the naughty kid’s face and waved it, before knocking Qin Zeyu’s head, “Why are you in daze?”

Of course, Qin Zeyu would not be so stupid as to tell her the truth, and perfunctorily found an excuse. “I was wondering if Second Uncle would come again.”

Qin Jiu said, “Probably not.”

After saying this, she couldn’t help but sighed: what a pity!

“What a pity!!!” Qin Zeyu heartfeltly sigh at the same time.

Du Ruo: “....”

Just as Qin Jiu had guessed, Qin Zhun really did not come to her doorsteps again.

Qin Jiu felt a little regretful: she could always warmly welcome Qin Zhun and, also take this opportunity to buy more, after all, this was like the year-end clearance, no one could miss it after passing by!

And since Qin Zhun stopped coming to her house, Qin Jiu was once again free. It happened to be rainy for a few days in a row and the weather was much cooler, so Yun Jiao invited her out, they went shopping and playing in the capital. After spending more time with Yun Jiao, Qin Jiu could see that she was much more playful than her two brothers at home, leading her to restaurants, teahouses, jewelry stores, cloth stores, and so on, all with their own unique characteristics.

After playing around the capital, they then went take their horses and stroll around Cuiwei Mountain, it took most of the day’s work, and it wasn’t until afternoon did, they decide to go back. From a distance, they could see the commotion at the South City Gate.

The two glances at each other, slowed down their horse with a “woah” and stopped at the back of a carriage, then watched the commotion.
