Vol 3 Chapter 16: raise money
His elder brother must think him crazy!
What is the concept of 50,000 taels?
He paid fifty taels a month, six hundred taels a year, and only six thousand taels in ten years!
But after a hundred years, he can save the 50,000 taels because he went for free.
But Lian Youyou said that instead of inviting a ghost like those witches, that is, inviting Yu Pingting to come, she took him there, how? What if he is still alive?
Fu Mingrui couldn't imagine the method, and he couldn't imagine it, so he became more curious. He suddenly felt that Lian Youyou's fifty thousand taels was really not much.
"Let me think about it again." Fu Mingrui's curiosity must not be defeated by the fifty thousand taels. He had to think about how to get the fifty thousand taels, or pay Lian Youyou in installments.
"During the time you are raising money, you can go and find out who this Yu Pingting is" Lian Youyou continued to read the scroll, already putting on a snobby look that if you don't have money, don't bother me anymore.
Fu Mingrui's scalp was tight. He was able to solve countless difficult and miscellaneous cases, but he encountered difficulties in raising money.
He walked back and jumped off the high wall.
Seeing that their lord finally came back, Zhao Cheng and Wang Quan couldn't help asking, "My lord, what's the matter?"
Fu Mingrui looked at them and asked, "Do you have any money?"
Zhao Cheng and Wang Quan's expressions were a little stiff, their family is short of money? !
The two of them were also loyal. They searched their bodies and found dozens of coins: "Sir, this is all. If you are in a hurry, take it."
Fu Mingrui frowned when he looked at the dozens of taels of silver, which was far from the fifty thousand taels. This money can't come from dozens of taels, we have to think of a way.
He also began to think in his own mind.
In the past few years as the owner of the eight doors, he has also saved some private money. Fu Mingrui doesn't have any expenses on weekdays, and his elder brother takes care of him at home, so he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing. Because his third brother joined the army, he could feel that his father loved him even more, and he asked his elder brother to ask him if he had enough money every now and then.
So he was able to save Yuefeng almost. There are roughly a few thousand taels. But it was too far away from the 50,000 taels that Lian Youyou wanted.
Wang Quan and Zhao Cheng saw that their adults were really worried about money, and they also became worried.
"My lord, how about we let the brothers make it up for you, roughly how much do you want?"
Fu Mingrui saw that his brothers were worried about him, so he relaxed his expression and looked at them with a smile: "No, I will find a way by myself, you go and help me with something."
"What?" Wang Quan and Zhao Cheng got serious when they heard that Fu Mingrui asked them to do something.
Fu Mingrui's dark eyes flashed sharply and deeply: "Investigate Bai Zhankui's case again, especially why Yu Pingting committed suicide!"
Wang Quan and Zhao Cheng were stunned. Bai Zhankui's case is obviously closed, so why do you want to investigate it again? Moreover, it was Cha Yu Pingting.
"Go ask the villagers of Baijia Village everything about Yu Pingting, and make sure to record your confession in detail!" Fu Mingrui urged more seriously!
Although Wang Quan and Zhao Cheng were suspicious, they should not slack off according to Fu Mingrui's instructions. Take orders immediately: "Yes!"
Wang Quan and Zhao Cheng immediately took orders to leave, Fu Mingrui put the case back on the desk, thought for a while, and strode out. Since, if you want to know who Yu Pingting is, you should start from the source, which is Yu Pingting's home.
In the Nine Gates Courtyard, Lin Tingjun poured another cup of tea for Lian Youyou, and put it on a stool within reach of Luo Lian Youyou: "You just entered the study, why have you been there for so long?"
Lian Youyou got up slightly, took the teacup, continued to read while drinking, and said casually: "Find someone"
"Looking for someone?" Lin Tingjun glanced sideways at Lian Youyou who was lying leisurely on the recliner.
"Well, Babu Tianjiyi is best at finding people."
"Who are you looking for?"
Lian Youyou took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and the scroll, raised her face and smiled at Lin Tingjun, "You said that I am so intelligent, beautiful and intelligent, like a fish and a wild goose, I am ashamed of flowers under the moon, I am so beautiful..."
"Pfft! Cough, cough..." Lin Tingjun spewed out the tea uncontrollably, and even coughed.
Lian Youyou looked at him with a smirk: "I am such an excellent woman, of course I am looking for a man."
"Cough cough cough..." Lin Tingjun continued to cough until his ears turned red, "Did you find it? Cough cough cough." Ling Tingjun looked at Lian Youyou while coughing.
Lian Youyou's expression became casual again, she opened the book casually, showing boredom: "It's not fun to find it so soon."
Lin Tingjun slowed down, his expression was a little calm, and he looked at Lian Youyou again: "What happens after you find it?"
"After I found it..." Lian leisurely turned a page of the book, and said leisurely again, "I'll beat him up."
Lin Tingjun slightly opened his black eyes, pursed his lips and retracted his gaze, his face became more and more dull. He picked up the teapot again and poured Lian Youyou a cup of tea.
Lian Youyou also picked up the teacup and continued her leisure time of drinking tea and reading books.
It's almost past time, and it's the time when the princes in the study are about to finish their classes.
As the grand tutor of the princes, Lin Jingzhi Lin Youxiang, in addition to handling heavy official duties every day, this morning, he also taught the princes the way of governing the country and the way of being a king in the upper study.
Emperor Cheng had five sons and three daughters, the eldest being Duanmu Yushu, the eldest princess, who was married to Siam, a Buddhist country.
The second child is Prince Duanmu Qingchen. The third eldest, Duanmu Jinhong, was born only an hour later than Duanmu Qingchen, and the position of crown prince was abruptly missed. In this life, sometimes one minute and one second really can't be missed, one step late, and the whole country is gone.
Two years later, the fourth princess, Duanmu Jinghui, was born. A year ago, she married the Yulan Kingdom of Dongzhou Sea Country. At the age of seventeen, she is already a princess. I heard that she is about to give birth in the near future. .
The old Wuduanmu Ruifeng and the old Liuduanmu Yankang are still sixteen or seventeen years old, and there is a little difference in age from the crown prince and the third prince.
This age difference is also a good thing, the two young princes always regard the prince and the third prince as their idols and role models.
The seventh princess, Duanmu Yaxin, is only fifteen years old. The Seventh Princess lives a carefree life, and is doted on by several elder brothers one after another. In addition, she is the only princess left in the palace, so Emperor Cheng especially dotes on her. Duanmu Yaxin is really spoiled in the palace. .
And the little Baduanmu Yunchong is only five years old, and he will only be able to enter the study next year to study.
Lin Xiang held the "Governance Policy" in his hand, and continued to give lectures earnestly: "Governing the country should be based on the people, people's livelihood, people's plan, people's hearts, people's feelings, people..." Lin Xiang paused.
The expressions of the sixth prince and the seventh prince immediately became tense, as long as Lin Xiang suddenly stopped lecturing, someone must be deserting.
They first looked at the prince's elder brother Duanmu Qingchen, and saw Duanmu Qingchen's scroll standing in front of the desk, and behind the scroll, Duanmu Qingchen was engrossed in writing on a booklet, not knowing what he was writing.
