Chapter 230 Money
Zhou Ping stood on one side, raising his little head with a puzzled look on his face. He looked at Shen Li for a moment, then turned around and tugged on Zhou Huaishan's sleeve.
"Second uncle, my eldest and second sister are not married yet. Isn't it a bad idea to let him live in our house?"
Shen Li never expected it.
In this home, the first person who bluntly disagreed with his move was six-year-old Zhou Ping.
"Pingzi, it's more convenient for me to live in and teach you kung fu."
Zhou Ping shook his head, "It's enough for me to have Brother Li!"
Li Er on one side.
It has nothing to do with me!
I did not say!
not me!
Freeze said!
Shen Li glanced at Li Er and patted Zhou Ping on the head, "I am much better than your brother Li Er."
Zhou Ping had an expression that was not affected by sugar-coated bullets at all, and said firmly: "Then I can't sacrifice my eldest sister and second sister. I, Zhou Ping, can't do such a thing!"
After a pause, Zhou Ping raised his head and said with the heroic aura of a descendant of Yan and Huang: "Brother, you are not young anymore. You have always lived in my house. How will you marry a wife in the future?
Doesn't your mother care about you?
You can't rely on me to support you until the end of your life, right? "
Shen Li suddenly
He frowned and looked at Zhou Ping for a long moment, then took a deep breath and cupped his fists towards Zhou Huaishan, "Master, I have asked for your majesty's decree to grant a marriage. The decree will come in a few days."
Zhou Qing himself was shocked when he heard the imperial edict granting marriage.
His heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat, and his cheeks felt slightly warm.
Zhou Huaishan was stunned for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking. He was about to open his mouth but stopped and said nothing.
On the other hand, Zhou Ping's eyes lit up immediately.
"What is a marriage granted by imperial decree?"
"The emperor issued an imperial edict to get me married."
"Wowoh!"
Zhou Ping, who had just firmly refused Shen Li to move in, immediately let go of Zhou Huaishan's sleeves and leaned towards Shen Li flatteringly.
"So, the eldest brother has met the emperor? The emperor can grant marriage to the eldest brother, so the emperor is very good to the eldest brother? Can the eldest brother enter the palace? Why are you so powerful, eldest brother!"
Those little eyes were full of envy and shock.
Shen Li nodded, "Can Senior Brother move in?"
Zhou Ping patted his chest and said, "Of course! You are my senior brother. We come from the same school, so naturally we have to live together. Senior brother, then the emperor will marry you, who is your wife?"
Shen Li looked up at Zhou Qing.
"Your eldest sister."
The envy and shock on Zhou Ping's face froze at this moment.
"who?"
"Your eldest sister."
Zhou Ping slowly turned his head and looked at Zhou Qing. His eyes seemed not to be looking at his eldest sister, but a golden Buddha.
"Sister, are you going to be married by imperial decree?"
Zhou Qing couldn't help laughing.
Zhou Ping jumped three feet high, "I knew it! My Zhou Ping's sister is definitely not an ordinary sister!"
After saying that, Zhou Ping threw away Shen Li and rushed towards Zhou Qing.
"Sister, I really didn't expect that under my nose, you would actually get married to my senior brother!
It's still a royal decree granting marriage!
So cool!
The eldest sister is indeed a kind-hearted person and blessed with good fortune.
My senior brother is the best man in the world besides me!
Don’t get carried away with your form, your ancestors, or your level of dignity!
I am your most adorable little brother!
If you want wealth and honor, don’t forget each other! "
Zhou Qing
Zhou Ping's arrival added a lot of excitement to the whole house.
The servants in the house were all brought directly by Shen Li from Guangping's residence.
As soon as they arrive, they can perform their duties, and it goes without saying that they are loyal.
After dinner, Zhou Ping was young after all, so he felt sleepy early due to the bumpy journey.
Zhou Ping went to bed, and Shen Li gave Zhou Huaishan the deed of sale to the servants in the house, and left temporarily because something suddenly happened.
As soon as everyone left, Zhou Huaishan immediately closed the door, rubbed his hands and winked at Zhou Qing, "Girl, open the box!"
The small box was placed on the round table. Zhou Huaishan wiped the dirt off the box, took a deep breath, and opened the lid of the box.
Before that, Zhou Qing's mind was filled with the words "imperial decree granting marriage".
The moment the lid of the box opened, her mind suddenly went blank.
There was a box full of gold cakes in that box.
Under the candlelight, there was a blinding golden light.
No wonder even Shen Li struggled to move it.
The inside of the lid of the box is made of velvet, and the velvet is densely inlaid with pearls. Each pearl is round, smooth and full in size.
Zhou Qing, who had no knowledge, looked at the box in front of him, his mouth slightly opened and drool dripping down.
He grabbed Zhou Huaishan's sleeve and stammered: "Dad, how much does this cost?"
Zhou Huaishan looked proud, "Let's put it this way, a pearl necklace can probably use ten pearls of this quality, and a necklace is worth three gold ingots."
Zhou Qing's eyes widened instantly.
Are ancient pearls so expensive? !
Zhou Huaishan cooed: "Do you think these pearls and gold cakes are worth a lot?"
"Dad, from what you say, is there anything more valuable?"
Zhou Huaishan patted the small box and said, "The most valuable thing in this box is not the gold cakes or pearls, it's this box!"
"box?"
Zhou Qing suddenly put on a money-grubbing face, squatted down, and moved closer, touching and looking at the box.
"I don't see anything valuable about it."
"The material of this box is called rosewood. The price of this box is worth all our savings now. I'm afraid we have to dig through it again. Do you think it's worth it?"
Upon hearing this name, Zhou Qing's hand touching the box suddenly trembled.
Dalbergia odorifera, also known as Hainan Huanghuali.
In later generations, a bracelet of top-quality Hainan Huanghuali would be sold for at least tens of thousands of yuan.
Now, there is a box of Dalbergia odorifera in front of her?
What the hell is this!
Touching the box again, Zhou Qing felt as if he was touching the imperial seal, "Dad! We are so rich!"
Zhou Huaishan laughed and said, "Now you know why I agreed to let Shen Li stay!"
"We want to make a splash in Kyoto with money, and maybe we will be remembered by the scoundrels. The shadow leader lives in our house, and no one dares to touch us. Is that the reason?" Zhou Qing said with his eyes on the box.
Zhou Huaishan nodded with satisfaction, "My daughter is smart!"
After that, Zhou Huaishan sat down on the chair behind him with a proud look, crossed his legs, and the hot tea arrived.
"Since Shen Li has asked for the imperial decree to grant the marriage, your wedding must be grand. That gives us a good opportunity. Let's go out to buy dowry tomorrow!"
"Okay!"
Her father wants to follow the path of Mr. Wang, the national husband. As her father's daughter, Zhou Qing certainly has to serve him wholeheartedly.
Making money may be difficult.
But spending money, she can!
A daughter who can't spend money is not a good salesperson!
"Dad, I remember you found a small box in the tree hole. What's in it?"
Zhou Huaishan rolled his eyes, "You only know how to think about your father's money!"
As he said, he took out the small box from his arms.
The box was opened, and inside was a round and shining bead.
