The reason why Gu Wenxuan brought up the three shops was because he wanted to transfer them to his father-in-law's name before the new year, otherwise he would have to wait until the county government opens its printing office in the first month of next year.
In order to avoid being unable to get the household registration of Yue's family, he had to reiterate it again.
If the shop he exchanged for a meeting gift was not nice, he would say it was a gift from his husband.
Zhou Shun was intimidated.
Sanya of his family can at least have her uncle to protect her. What if the child's sister-in-law finds out that the child used dowry to pay for two small shopping shops?
The dowry was just because it belonged to Master Sanya, so no one could argue with Sanya. Buying a shop for Dajiang Xiaohe was inappropriate both emotionally and rationally.
"No. Now they know that let alone a thousand taels of silver, even if it's ten thousand taels of silver, my wife doesn't need to use this dowry rent."
"What?" Zhou Shun shouted in shock.
Gu Wenxuan burst into laughter and nodded, "Two percent of the Gaofu family members gave away their profits not long ago."
Of course I know this. Zhou Shushun was stunned for a moment, and rolled his eyes at his uncle angrily, "Stop showing off, you guys just know how much you can make."
Originally, he was curious to ask his uncle, to be honest, how much cash the young couple had on hand now, and whether it was the same as what his daughter said.
Today?
"Don't show off."
"I really don't show off. From what 20% is, they can calculate what 80% is. It seems that my wife and I spend a lot, but there are other places to record it.
For example, two villages in Zhendingfu and Zhoujiacun supply Yunkelai's preserved eggs, as well as the yuba produced here and the oil produced by the oil press.
Excluding the straw paper, the revenue here in the past three months has been considerable. We spread out so that we could hide it from the village, and Uncle Zhao made an accurate estimate.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have listened to me saying that I wanted to buy a shop, so he just took such a thick stack—" Gu Wenxuan gestured with his hands, "he was joking and not afraid that I wouldn’t be able to eat it. ”
It's killing me.
No matter how much I try to hide it, I still can't cover it up.
Even though Zhou Shun didn't know that his good daughter and son-in-law had colluded to hide most of their family fortune from him and his in-laws, he was still frightened at this moment.
"You, Uncle Zhao, please stop talking so much. Your husband is no longer an official. He can protect you for a while, but not for a long time.
It doesn't matter if you couple make less, but if you make more, even high-ranking officials may be tempted to snatch it away, and those wealthy families will be worried privately. ”
"Don't be afraid. The Zhao family is much richer than us. According to my calculations, Mr. Zhao will earn at least 50,000 taels of silver from Xiangjizi this year."
As for whether his husband would fall into the trap of letting go, Gu Wenxuan decisively avoided this sensitive topic. As for his husband, as long as he is not dead today, he still has real power in his hands.
Even if today's emperor dies, without his merits as a follower of the dragon, he is a descendant of Zhou Shan, the first counselor in Daliang, and a representative figure of his descendants who has just been vindicated and vindicated.
As long as he doesn't interfere in the future, seize the throne by his direct descendants, or commit the crime of treason, the tea will not be cooled, even Gao Daren will be cooled, and his husband will not be made a target.
A ruthless person who can work hard to clear his grievances and retreat bravely is not someone like ordinary people like him who can speak out.
"Earn so much?" Zhou Shushun smacked his tongue and shook his head, "You are so brave. When Mr. Zhao fails to become an official, he might even have his belt and bones eaten away."
That's why Mr. Zhao was anxious. He was so annoyed with his sister-in-law's family that he had to show his sincerity. The huge business seemed to make a lot of money, but in fact it was not as good as his wife's. His daughter-in-law seems to have suffered a loss by giving Gaofu 20% of her shares in the soap workshop. She cannot help but think that her uncle is not easy to mess with, so she will wait and see. This New Year's gift in return will definitely be expensive.
The wind is biting outside.
Zhou Shun then listened to his uncle to ensure that no one would dare to covet his Sanya workshop within three to five years. After three to five years, he would no longer want it. The money he earned would be enough to live comfortably.
He felt reassured.
He didn't ask, no matter how extravagant his Sanya family was, they should still be able to earn ten thousand taels of silver a year, and they could earn thirty thousand taels of silver in three years.
I spent a lot of money this year, building a workshop, building a manor, buying a village house, and buying jewelry for my mother-in-law. I spent a lot of money.
Even if there is no money on hand this year, it will be better next year. At most, a paper-making workshop will be built. The expenses will be less, and the cash received will naturally be more.
I don’t think it’s too much, but if I have more than thirty thousand taels of silver in three to five years, I won’t be able to protect anything. If I have thirty thousand taels of silver as a back-up, I won’t suffer from poverty.
Then there is the uncle, who is not Zhao Laosan. He is a quasi-judicial official, which is quite good. Even if he is not an official, no one dares to bully him in his own place.
Patting Gu Wenxuan's shoulder, Zhou Shushun refused to let his uncle freeze outside at all costs this time, and quickly pushed his uncle in with both hands.
He wouldn't admit that if he stayed any longer, he, as an uncle, would have to ask whose name the three shops belonged to, and also want to get his family's household registration. What was he thinking?
This person has no idea how to take precautions against "inside thieves".
Before burning the incense, Zhi Ming took the note written by his good uncle to his brother-in-law, slipped home from the village school, got the household register, and handed it to Zhi Ming.
Of course, Xiaohe can't be blamed. Unfortunately, he is young and not very experienced in the world. He really believed that his third brother-in-law would use two household registrations to go to the county government office to update the household registration before the new year.
Inside the manor.
Gu Erzhu and Mrs. Liu were invited away by Chang Qing and Zhou Molan. They learned that not only the medical woman Wen Po had arrived in the past two days, but also a charming guest.
But the two of them were curious and surprised. You must know that today is already seventeen, and there are only a few days until New Year's Eve. Why come at this time?
Not to mention the freezing weather on the road, no matter how their village belongs to the Zhili area, it is still not far away from the capital. Even though it is almost the Chinese New Year, the little girl is still a daughter of an official family, and she is not close to thirty. Come on, these days I just have to learn how to host the reception at home.
After all, I heard that this rich lady is already thirteen or fourteen years old, and she has to learn everything she needs to learn. To come here at this juncture is so thoughtful and strange.
Then I thought about the fact that the old son who I heard came with me never came in. Something happened at home, so the child came here to avoid trouble or something.
Gu Erzhu and Liu looked at each other.
Mrs. Liu smiled and nodded, and Gu Erzhu turned to look at Chang Qing, who was always insisting on sitting down on the first stool.
"Uncle Chang, my son, is there anything else here that I shouldn't mention to you and I? We are just brothers. Is there anything else that you shouldn't tell me?
My wife and I do not regard you and your wife as outsiders. Not to mention how much you and your wife have helped us, just because this charming guest is the daughter of my uncle's family, my Gu family will not ignore it.
Of course, if it's not easy to talk about, it doesn't matter. It's just useful for me and my wife. Just open your mouth and you won't be able to do big things, but you can still help with small things. "(End of Chapter)
