Chapter 1154 Chapter 1154: Get Rich Overnight (Part 2) [Please vote]
It is one thing to know it, but another thing to see it with your own eyes.
Gong Xiqiu, who had received the news and came to pick up his eldest brother, happened to see this scene and couldn't help but look at Shen Tang with sympathy: "Mama?"
He wanted to ask, is she okay?
Shen Tang watched the pure gold statue disappear for a moment.
After a long while, he exhaled a sigh of relief.
Waving his hands, he said, "Just get used to this kind of thing."
She used to lose her temper and say a few words, but now she doesn't. It's not because she has matured, but because she has been working for too many years. Underneath her young and beautiful skin is a heart of a social animal that has been tortured by 007*3. It’s great to live another day.
“It’s just a pity that such a good statue is...”
The artistic value alone can be passed down to future generations and used as a tourist selling point.
She looked at Jimo Qiu apologetically.
No matter how generous the high priest was, Shen Tang, the recipient of the gift, was forcibly taken away by God before she had a chance to touch the statue he gave away. This was in front of the rightful owner, and she was somewhat embarrassed. It's not the most embarrassing, only more embarrassing. The front legs of the statue completely disappeared, and the baggage cart on the back legs was also damaged.
Shen Tang: “…”
Gong Xiqiu: "...how much do you owe?"
He was really worried that even his ancestral property would not be enough to pay this debt.
Shen Tang was speechless, and laughed and laughed: "That's not important... What's important is that the money spent has at least played a role... Let's think about it from another angle. The debt owed to God has no interest... Doesn't it feel like a small profit?"
Interest-free money is earned when you use it.
Gong Xiqiu curled his lips and said: "Maybe he has already accepted it. God didn't make a list for you. Who knows how much you will be charged?"
Each repayment secretly deducts a hard-earned fee, does Mama know?
Shen Tang: “…”
Gong Xiqiu was hit on the back of the head.
Jimo Qiu said sternly: "Don't talk nonsense about the way of heaven."
The fact that the law of heaven is supreme is not exaggerated. It does not mean deducting one point more or taking one cent less. But it is hard to say what is beyond the law of heaven.
Gong Xiqiu: "Our family doesn't believe in the way of heaven."
What happened to the few words when questioning?
He didn’t believe in this stuff when he was this old.
Just as Jimo Qiu was about to speak, a high-pitched shout from Xun Zhen suddenly came to his ears. In full view of everyone, the Minister of Hubu held two gold ingots in his hands and said excitedly: "There are still left, there are still left!"
Shen Tang excitedly shouted: "Ow!"
He took three steps and then two steps and jumped up to Xun Zhen.
Compared to Shen Tang's outgoing emotions, Xun Zhen was more restrained, but his hands holding the gold ingot were still trembling with excitement, from which we could get a glimpse of his inner excitement. God started deducting money, and Xun Zhen didn't believe it and rummaged through the baggage trucks one by one.
Empty, empty, empty…
Still empty…
Just when he thought that this windfall could not be settled, Xun Zhen found two gold ingots scattered in the corners of the wooden boxes on the baggage train. The remaining fifty or so baggage trucks are still full! Jimo Qiu also made it clear that he was short of manpower and could only transport part of it.
What does this mean? It means that the Lord has no debts for the time being! This means that the remaining part can be used for other things.
How can Xun Zhen not be excited?
Even if the money was given to the Lord by Jimo Qiu, whoever saw it had a share, and the national treasury could also absorb part of it. Xun Zhen was not greedy. He could give half to the treasury and keep the remaining half for future wars.
With thoughts in mind, Xun Zhen arranged them clearly.
“Quick, call someone to come over and take over!”
Xun Zhen was immediately full of energy, as if she was afraid that Shen Tang would regret it. She had people come with blank account books, pens and ink, abacus and copper rights. Shen Tang, the leader of the country, was almost squeezed out of the crowd.
“Are all the people in Hubu born in the year of wolf?”
Everyone has green eyes.
Shen Tang muttered a few words. Seeing that he had nothing to do here, he rolled his sleeves and prepared to leave. Debt-free and light, her body felt lighter than ever before, as if she could fly with every two steps she took.
Gong Xiqiu looked at these people and frowned: "Reliable?"
Shen Tang caught his words with sharp ears.
“What is reliable and unreliable?”
Gong Xiqiu: "Of course it's corruption and embezzlement."
He was arrogant about everything because of his strength, and he didn't bother to worry about human relationships. He just said whatever he thought, regardless of the fact that the Hubu group was not far away. For those who can practice, is there any difference between such a small distance and whispering loudly and close to the ear?
Everyone in the household department became silent and silent.
Shen Tang said: "You have to believe in the integrity of the officials of Kang State."
To touch her hard-earned money?
Do you really think she doesn't play Jiuzu Xiaoxiaole?
Jimo Qiu: "A Nian, be careful what you say."
The elder brother kept his mouth shut, which made him heartbroken. If it weren't for his extraordinary strength, Gong Xiqiu's grave would have been three feet high.
The suppression by his brother forced Gong Xiqiu to close his eyes.
Gong Xiqiu snorted: "I believe it for now."
Everyone in the household department looked at each other in shock, not daring to look at Xun Shangshu's face. Some of them also attended the wedding of General Xun. The woman was the female queen of the Gongxi clan, who was also the sister of Gongxi Qiu. The two families are considered in-laws after all. No matter how reckless Gong Xiqiu is, he will show mercy, right? As a result, he didn't care at all and directly asked his boss, the Ministry of Accounts, whether there was any possibility of corruption or embezzlement.
Anyone who hears this will be furious.
You feel humiliated even if you don't get angry.
Unexpectedly, Shangshu Xun behaved like a troubled person.
He also waved his hands to signal everyone not to think too much: "The money that the high priest brought today is equivalent to three years of Kang's treasury income. He only said a few words. Is it possible to lose a piece of meat? We are not afraid of slanting shadows. If you don’t have any ghosts in your heart, you won’t be afraid.”
If it were just a box of silver, and Gong Xiqiu dared to say this, Xun Zhen would roll up her sleeves and fight him to the death, but - these are three to four hundred baggage trucks, and each baggage truck has three to five boxes!
The inside is half gold bars and half silver bars. The pure color has reached the pinnacle of smelting and purification in the world, with almost no impurities. Even if most of it is used to pay off debts, there will still be a lot left over. Don't say that corrupt officials can't control it, but honest officials will also be shaken after seeing it.
Greed is human nature, and integrity is against human nature.
Is this greed?
Still not greedy?
Shen Tang is very confident in his own people, especially Xun Zhen: "It's hard to tell others, but Hanzhang's Hubu can't."
Xun Zhen never even had the thought of greed. It was not because he regarded money as dirt, but simply because he knew that the money would be used by him in the end. Xun Zhen was the best at killing the borers inside the household. If others are greedy for this money, they are greedy for his money.
At the end of the day, he is also "greedy".
However, his "greed" is different from that of normal people.
Gong Xiqiu also paid the price for his outspokenness, which made people unable to get down the stairs. He listened to Jimo Qiu's lectures all the way.
Sigh, my ears are getting calluses.
Shen Tang also gave him an assist: "It's not that I want to say it to you. If you want to say it, let's change the situation and take Hanzhang into account. He is also your niece's grandfather after all. There is no conflict, so why is there a stalemate?"
Gong Xiqiu corrected: "That's called niece."
There is no distinction between inside and outside within the clan.
Shen Tang also changed his words: "Okay, your niece."
Gong Xiqiu then said: "If I hadn't cared about my relatives, I wouldn't have said more than this today. Father and son of the Xun family, as a father, spend a lot of money, but as a son, you don't have a bright mind, how can you not worry?"
Shen Tang didn't know what kind of wind he was smoking.
I haven't heard of any conflict between Gong Xiqiu and Xun Zhen recently.
Or, what happened during those few days when she was asleep?
She could only ask Jimo Qiu with her eyes.
Jimo Qiu: "A Nian wanted to take his niece away to raise her, but he repeatedly rejected the name given by Xun Shangshu, and we had a quarrel."
Shen Tang: “…”
Jimo Qiu added: "A Nian gave me a name."
Xun Shangshu firmly opposed it after reading it, and Gong Xiqiu became unhappy.
The money that was taken away today belonged to Xun Zhenhua, so Gong Xiqiu was even more unhappy. He felt that Xun Hanzhang was a prodigal man.
Shen Tang: “…”
What is Gong Xiqiu’s naming level?
Jimo Qiu said: "What the name is is secondary. What is written in the genealogy does not mean what must be used in reality. This can be accommodated. For the child's first birthday banquet, A Nian wanted to return to the clan to hold it. Xun Shangshu meant that the full moon cannot be caught up, so the first birthday banquet is just right. , It’s time to hold a big event. But the clan is far away and it’s not convenient for guests to go there.”
Shen Tang: “What’s so controversial about this kind of thing?”
Gong Xiqiu said: "Because of face."
It is quite embarrassing in the clan for a niece to be raised by a man. Xun Zhen and his son were in such financial straits that Gong Xiqiu had no choice but to say, "Well, if Xun Yong'an hadn't been so disappointing, I would have had to make plans for my niece's future. In fact, I would have liked to give you some support."
Share the blessings together and suffer the misfortunes together.
Gong Xiqiu saw that Shen Tang was so poor and had the idea of helping him.
Shen Tang: “…”
If she hadn't known about the salaries of Kang's ministers, she would have thought that she was treating them harshly. Gong Xiqiu uses his own economic strength to measure others. How many people in this world are not poor? The corner of her mouth twitched slightly: "So, what was Yongan's daughter's last name?"
Gong Xiqiu said: "Dou means crown power."
Shen Tang: “…”
Jimo Qiu reminded in a low voice: "I originally planned to call it 'Champion', but Xun Shangshu thought it was too ostentatious, so I changed it."
In fact, the modified version is not very good either.
“So, call me Gongxi Dou?”
At first glance, this name sounds very powerful!
But—
"According to the way your family calls nicknames, isn't this child's nickname...Adou?" Xun Zhen looked at the name of the third generation. Is her heart feeling okay? Shen Tang wanted to know what Xun Ding and his wife thought of this, "This name is not very good."
“My nickname is Ahua.”
Shen Tang: “…”
Gongxi Qiumo rubbed his chin: "But A Dou is fine too."
Sounds quite cute, better than Ahua.
Shen Tang: "It's better not to leave, I'm afraid this baby won't be able to bear the fall..."
Gong Xiqiu’s braids are full of little question marks.
“What does this have to do with whether a child can withstand falling or not?”
Shen Tang: “…”
How can Gongxi Qiu Kepu have an adjective called "Adou who cannot be helped"? Gong Xiqiu didn't understand this, and he didn't believe that Xun Zhen would know that this name could actually be approved by him?
“How on earth did you get the naming rights from him?”
Gongxi Qiu’s words were concise and concise: “Throw money.”
Shen Tang: “…”
I didn’t expect you to be such a Xun Zhen.
_(:з∠)_
In fact, Gong Xiqiu not only used money to squander Xun Zhen, but also Gong Xilai and Xun Ding, and the child's name was bought by him.
Having money means being able to do whatever you want.
Jimo Qiu sighed: "How can you use vulgar things to defile people?"
Gong Xiqiu didn’t think he had done anything wrong: “It’s easy to use.”
Shen Tang, the poorest of the three, couldn't help but shed tears of sadness.
Listen, these two brothers are absolutely beasts!
Is it human language?
I don’t see these two jobs on weekdays, how can I be so rich?
Shen Tang not only thought about it, she also asked.
Gong Xiqiu said: "Who can't make a fortune from fighting?"
He fought for Tang Guo in his early years, and later sold himself to fight for other warlords. If the generals don't have enough money and food to fight the war, who is willing to take action? Gong Xiqiu didn't bother to search for money after the war, because he knew that he didn't have to put in that effort, and there were others who would stuff it with him.
Shen Tang looked at Jimo Qiu: "What about you?"
Compared with his younger brother, Jimo Qiu was not warlike at all.
He can’t also make a fortune from fighting, can he?
Jimo Qiu blinked in confusion: "Isn't this just a matter of having hands?"
Saving gold and silver is as simple as breathing.
Shen Tang: "...specifically, how to operate?"
Jimo Qiu: "First, find a place with gold and silver."
For example, gold and silver mining areas.
Shen Tang urged: "Then?"
Jimo Qiu replied: "Then just plant trees."
Shen Tang: “…”
Plant the seeds of the sacred tree in the mountains near the gold mine. When the seeds sprout and grow, the tree will bear fruit. These fruits are what gold and silver bars originally looked like. If not, how could the Gongxi clan not be short of gold and silver? No matter how wealthy our ancestors were, they could not afford to hoard so many assets. Jimoqiu added: "It's just that the soil in the mining area is poor, so the sacred tree will grow very slowly."
According to old tribal records, the original intention of this move was to purify and improve the land that was seriously contaminated by radioactive metals, and metals were by-products.
Shen Tang: “…”
Let’s fight with you rich people!
Xun Zhen was busy until dinner time before she came back to grab a few mouthfuls of rice. Before the mat was warm, she heard the news of Jimo Qiu's visit.
“I wonder if the high priest is here to visit? What advice can you give me?”
Xun Zhen gave Jimo Qiu the dignity of being a benefactor.
“First, I came to apologize for Anian Bairi’s offense.”
“It is not offensive if one family does not speak the same language as the other.”
“Secondly, I want to ask, Your Highness is still short of money?”
Xun Zhen told the truth: "How can we fight without burning money?"
Not to mention post-war pensions and resettlement, the daily consumption of military pay alone is a huge expense. If Lin Feng and others could not solve a large part of the food supply, and without the consumption of food transporters, the Kangguo treasury would not be able to support two major wars in succession.
He was curious as to why Jimo Qiu suddenly came to ask this question.
Is it possible that the Gongxi clan has other ancestral properties that they haven’t paid for?
Jimo Qiu naturally does not have it.
but-
He knows where there are mines.
These mines are mined manually, with low efficiency and low returns.
He doesn't have these worries.
Xun Zhen asked in confusion: "Why?"
Throwing a lot of money is always for something.
Fame, fame and wealth must all be shared equally.
Jimo Qiu said sincerely: "Your Highness lowers his eyes."
Just five words gave Xun Zhen a great shock.
“Lower your eyes?”
“Well, lower your eyes.” I hope His Highness will see him in her eyes as she does her courtiers. Although it was a little crowded, he didn't mind.
“Nothing else?”
“No picture.”
Xun Zhen took a breath of cold air.
He had previously speculated that Jimo Qiu's contribution to the ancestral property was because he coveted the Lord. He was more or less just watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously, and teased the Lord for his amazing charm. I never expected that Jimo Qiu would come for real!
The other party was not only serious, but also hit the target seven inches.
Send money, throw money...
Just take one more look.
Who wouldn’t be confused after a set of combos?
_(:з∠)_
Having passed Ke Er in one session, he fainted at the end of one hundred.
