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 rarely went home and neglected a lot of children.

​​

Zhulan went back to the house and took out the box containing the silver bills. There were not many silver bills in the box. She took it out and counted the pieces of silver. There were less than seven hundred taels left, and she took out five Hundred taels, there are less than two hundred taels left, and I haven't felt that the money is not enough for a long time.

​​

Recently, I came to the capital to spend a lot of money, and Zhou Shuren's promotion has doubled the monthly money, so I am a little tight.

​​

Although the guests received a lot of gifts, they were all items and could not be used as money. This amount of money is really not enough for the autumn harvest, and the cost of the capital is too great.

​​

When Zhou Shuren came back, he saw the banknotes on the table, and only took four hundred taels of money, "I haven't had a chance to use the money given to me last time, four hundred taels is enough."

​​

Zhulan, "Just put it on, you didn't have the chance before. That's because the household department was busy. After a few days, the household department will relax. It's certain to treat guests."

​​

"I don't have much money at home!"

​​

Zhulan, "Don't worry about your family, I'll let Steward Ding go to the fishery tomorrow, and the fish in the ice cellar will be processed, and the money will be there."

​​

Zhou Shuren, "Deal with it in advance!"

​​

"Yeah, I originally wanted to wait until the end of the year to deal with it, and sell it at a good price during the New Year. Now the family needs money."

​​

Zhou Shuren put the bank note into his purse, "It's a pity to deal with it in advance."

​​

Zhulan also felt pain, "Now that the price of fish is cheap, I've lost a lot of money!"

​​

Zhou Shuren took off his jacket 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."

​​

When Zhou Shuren saw Mrs. Song and the girl come in, he said faintly: "I'm getting old, and staying up late is a little bit slow. It's hard to make up for this hard work. Fortunately, I finally survived, and I can sleep more steadfastly in the future."

​​

Zhu Lan covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and glanced at the maid, this person was behaving badly, "I haven't seen the master for a few days, why do you think the master's hair is much whiter?"

​​

After a pause, she instructed Mrs. Song, "Boil black rice porridge tomorrow morning."

​​

Mrs. Song, "Yes."

​​

Zhou Shuren washed his hands, "I also lost a lot of hair!"

​​

Zhulan cooperated distressedly, "Then it needs to be repaired well. How do I look at it, Master seems to have lost weight too."

​​

Zhou Shuren, "... um."

​​

Mrs. Song and the girl went down, Zhulan stopped acting, and when the footsteps left, Zhulan lowered her voice, "Do you want to be rewarded for selling miserable?"

​​

Zhou Shuren took off his shoes and said: "Well, don't hold out your hopes too much, it all depends on the emperor, but I don't think there is much hope, the officials of the Ministry of Household have all contributed, and the chance of rewarding me alone is too low, even if I think It's a good idea, but I work in the household department, and these are all things I should do."

​​

Zhulan pulled the pillow, "I didn't have any hope either. It's better if you sell out badly, so as not to think that you are beaten by iron."

​​

These days, she could see her husband's exhaustion, and she felt distressed.

​​

Zhou Shuren lay down, "It's still comfortable at home."

​​

Zhu Lan went down and blew out the candle, "Then have a good rest."

​​

Zhou Shuren soon fell asleep. He was not very stable in the Ministry of Household, he had no wife by his side, he had too many things on his mind, and he never had much rest.

​​

The next day, as soon as Zhou Shuren arrived at the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Households lined up, and you could tell by their clothes that they were all businessmen, and the rewards from the Xu family stimulated the merchants.

​​

Zhou Shuren entered the household department, and the office had already started in the courtyard.

​​

After waiting for a while, the various ministries came to send the donated silver. Although it was not comparable to the merchants, it was also a large sum of money, not counting the emperor's 100,000 taels. The princes and the princes did not surpass the prince.

​​

Xiao Qing felt that this was the happiest day since becoming Minister of the Household.

​​

In the afternoon, each merchant donated less money. Some of these people were small merchants, and some felt that most of them had donated.

​​

Zhou Shuren counted the amount, "Master Shang Shu, this is the amount donated in the morning."

​​

Xiao Qing took it over and took a look, "One hundred and sixty-five thousand taels of silver, this is just the silver taels in the morning."

​​

Zhou Shuren, "Yes."

​​

Counting the money of the Xu family, it was more than two million taels, which was a huge sum.

​​

After Xiao Qing was excited, "The amount cannot be known to outsiders, otherwise, there will be even more reasons to ask for money."

​​

Zhou Shuren got up and said, "Sir, Xiaguan will go back first."

​​

"good."

​​

As soon as Zhou Shuren walked out 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 decree."

​​

Zhou Shuren heard it, "Father-in-law, please, Lord Shang Shu is here."

​​

Eunuch Liu nodded, "Sir, you are busy first."

​​

Not long after Zhou Shuren returned to the house, Lord Shang Shu asked the officials of the household department of the fourth rank and above to go there.

​​

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Xiao Qing opened his mouth and said: "The emperor sees the hard work of the household, and there are rewards from the top and bottom of the household. According to the grades, the three-grade and third-grade silver are three hundred taels, and the fourth-grade silver is awarded. It is two hundred taels from the fourth grade, one hundred taels from the fifth grade and from the fifth grade, fifty taels from the sixth grade to the seventh grade, and twenty taels from the eighth grade to the ninth grade.

​​

Xiao Qing paused for a while and continued: "The right servant Zhou Shuren just took office, but he solved the problem of the household's money shortage. The emperor specially rewarded the right servant with two hundred taels. I hope the right servant can continue to work hard for the court."

​​

Zhou Shuren hurriedly thanked him, but he thought to himself, the emperor really knows how to count, the five hundred taels happened to be the money he donated!

​​

This was a happy event for the Ministry of Household, and it soon spread throughout the Ministry of Household.

​​

Zhou Shuren calculated an account. The department of households has the most six departments, and the officials of the department of households also have the most six departments, especially those from the sixth rank and below, so the department of households donates the most money, and the account is 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 asked with anticipation, "Is there any?"

​​

Zhou Shuren took out the bank note and handed it to his wife, "Yes."

​​

Zhulan's eyes were full of surprises, but it was really there Then she was stunned, and she counted five hundred taels of silver notes, "This?"

​​

Zhou Shuren changed his clothes, "The entire household has been rewarded..."

​​

After Zhulan listened to it, ".... I've taken it."

​​

Zhou Shuren asked, "You didn't send the housekeeper to the fishery, did you?"

​​

"Not yet. I said that I didn't expect it, but I still had expectations in my heart, so I thought it would take a day or two, so I thought about it for two days before letting the housekeeper go."

​​

Zhou Shuren smiled, "With all the money, it should be enough."

​​

Zhu Lan smiled, "With your salary, it's enough."

​​

Yaohou Mansion, Yao Yao is going home. Today, she accompanied her mother to watch over her younger brother for a day. The younger brother was tricked. He finally went out to get some air and was pushed off the pavilion. His forehead hit a stone and he was still in a coma.

​​

Yao Yao got up and said, "Mother, my daughter will go back first, and come back tomorrow."

​​

Bai Shi's eyes were swollen from crying, and her 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 weakly killed. She walked in a daze and didn't look at the road. , are you alright!"

​​

Yao Yao frowned and stared at the servant boy whom the housekeeper took away. This man looked familiar.
