Chapter 382： I can't take it away when I die

Zhou Shuren had already got into the carriage, but Chang Lian was still standing stupidly, frowning, "You're not leaving yet?"

Chang Lian didn't need to answer the question evenly, and quickly got on the carriage when he came.

Dividing ink, "..."

After the mistress went out, he found that the masters in the family were too afraid to breathe. Well, neither did the servants!

Back at Zhou Mansion, the whole family was waiting for dinner. Zhou Shuren was in a good mood. Not only did he spend 20,000 taels of money to build Lizhou, but he also refused to win over. Zhou Shuren thought about this year's tax, and the potatoes and sweet potatoes in the granary had been replaced by corn, etc. As for the food that can be stored, the merchants have also collected a lot of tax revenue in the second half of the year. Although there are still some lower counties that are basically not taxed, the entire Lizhou is still good.

Zhou Shuren counted silently. Now that the Chinese New Year is over, he doesn't know if there is any year-end bonus. Zhou Shuren took a sip of his wine, and the emperor's poor money will shine. It's good to have a conscience reward, but not the year-end bonus. thought.

Zhou Shuren was in a good mood, and the dining atmosphere in the main hall was also relaxed.

The only thing that bothers him is Chang Lian. In the past, he only heard about how powerful the old man was, but now he saw it. He wanted to toast the old man, but he didn't dare to move his hand, so he was in a panic.

What happened in the restaurant didn't have to wait until the next day, officials in the entire Lizhou City knew.

Master Chen opened his mouth wide, "You say it again, I didn't hear it clearly."

The little servant was silent. It wasn't that the lord didn't hear it clearly, but he didn't believe it. The little servant learned it again, and still felt a little emotional in his heart. Lord Zhou is not only a good official, but also a lover. He couldn't help looking at the master, his aunt. It's all delivered!

As for Lord Zhou, he said that he heard it wrong, and he didn't believe it. This is just deceiving people who don't understand.

Chen Chen waved his hand to let the servant go down, and when the servant left, he couldn't help but swear, "Zhou Shuren is amazing, he's got 20,000 taels all at once."

Chen Chen thought about why Zhou Shuren dared to do this next time, and finally fell silent. Chen Chen was jealous. Zhou Shuren has the prestige of the people and the emperor's attention. This is Zhou Shuren's confidence.

He Fu, Mr. He was speechless for a long time. He and Mr. Zhou were too different. However, Mr. Zhou was really bad. Mr. He was happy again. Mr. Zhou's reputation was too high, and the faster he walked, but his heart was still sour. Next, the rise is so fast that it makes people jealous!

What the man thinks is that Zhou Shuren is shameless enough, and the woman is jealous of Zhulan who is not at home. Zhulan has never been envied by the women of her hometown, and now she has become the object of the jealousy of the women of Lizhou City!

Zhulan really didn't know, but she felt that she sneezed a lot this night, so scared that Boss Zhou and 2nd Zhou kept asking if they had caught the cold. Zhulan said that she didn't believe it, so Master Zhou insisted on asking for a doctor. Come.

Zhulan was speechless. She didn't know whether she caught the cold or not, "Are you thinking that I'm confused? I don't know if I'm sick or not?"

Boss Zhou sent the doctor away, feeling at ease, "Mother, you have pity on your poor son."

A few days before he left home, he had been frightened by the old man!

Zhou Lao Er didn't want to recall what his father had threatened them with. They were really afraid that the old man would take care of them when they went home.

Zhulan, "...let's go back and rest!"

Early the next morning, as soon as Zhou Shuren arrived at the yamen, he received a silver note of 20,000 taels and handed it over to Master Chen for credit. "This time, I have the money to build the ice cellar."

Master Chen gave a thumbs up, "Master Zhou, there are very few people I admire. I really admire you. I'm convinced."

Then he happily took away the bank note. Although there was some money in the book, there was not much in the book when it was sent back to the capital. Who knows what the situation will be next year, he was only worried about losing his hair, and now he has money. .

Zhou Shuren was drinking tea, "Master Chen can admire Zhou more in the future."

He has many ways to cheat money. If it wasn't for fear of drawing too much hatred, he directly wrote the matter of donating money to the emperor. Although it seemed to benefit the merchants, he actually cheated the merchants all over the country. This hatred The value is too large, or not.

Master Chen silently looked at Master Zhou who was drinking tea. The longer he got along with Master Zhou, the more he realized that Master Zhou was not ordinary thick-skinned.

Before noon, the reward team arrived. Zhou Shuren thanked him for his kindness. Looking at the many officers and soldiers in the team, he sighed in his heart, not only to give gifts, but also to collect taxes.

Arrange the officials and others. Zhou Shuren doesn't care about the food, he cares about the house deed in his hand. By the way, there is also a whole piece of jade. This is really generous!

Such a large piece of top-quality jade, the whole piece of carving is a treasure, but Zhou Shuren narrowed his eyes, he is not going to carve it and leave it as a family heirloom.

He and Zhulan worked so hard to save money for the Zhou family, and they saved money for family heirlooms? Dream about it, and even if you save it, you can't guarantee the long-term wealth of Zhou's family. You don't know who will be cheaper in the future. Plus, the treasure they saved can't be taken away when they die, so it's better to enjoy it while you are alive.

This piece of jade, uh, is enough to carve a small box of jewelry for Zhulan, and it's all top-quality jade jewelry. It's a lot of fun to take out. It's a pity that the emperor's reward can't be sold. Now, Zhou Shuren thought that the emperor had no money, but there were a lot of treasures. Although sometimes he was going to die, as long as it was useful to the emperor, the emperor was still very generous.

Zhou Shuren is a man of action. There are many excellent craftsmen in Lizhou City. Zhou Shuren invited people to come over. He was going to make two sets first. It was less than one-third of the whole piece of jade, and the remaining two-thirds of bamboo. When Lan comes back, Zhu Lan can carve jewelry according to her own preferences.

The emperor didn't only reward Zhou Shuren, but Master Chen, Master He, and others could do it too. He rewarded some tangerines and a few pieces of tribute decorations, and nothing else.

No matter how much old vinegar the two adults drink, they can't help it Whoever asked Lizhou City to make every policy was mentioned by Lord Zhou.

On Zhulan's side, it has long entered the southern boundary. Today, Zhulan is going to take a boat and continue south. It is the first time that Zhulan has boarded a boat in ancient times. Some of them are big. Although they can walk fast with the wind, they can shake a lot. In addition, Zhulan's body has never been on a boat before, so she is a little seasick.

It was really fast going down the south with the wind. Originally, Zhulan was expected to travel for three days and arrived at the port in two days.

This is already the territory of the south. Although it is winter, the clothes are similar to the autumn clothes in the north. Zhulan is not going to continue south. ,This is enough.

Living in an inn in Jinzhou City, the south is prosperous and the architecture is exquisite. Bamboo orchid is better.

The eldest and second eldest of Zhou are just bunnies who have entered the city, and their eyes are not enough to see.

Zhulan calculated the distance. She originally expected it to take a month, but she didn't expect it to be useful. Also, she changed the destination and no longer went south. She's gone home, yes, she's going home, where there is Zhou Shuren is her home.

Zhulan sent Butler Ding and Zhou Lao Er out for a walk. She just wanted to have a good rest. The room she chose was on the side of the street. Zhulan sat by the window and watched the pedestrians on the street.

The land in Jinzhou City is fertile. Because of the terrain, there are few floods. Zhulan is more and more satisfied with Jinzhou.

The prosperity of Jinzhou is justified. Unless there is war, the general situation really does not affect Jinzhou.
