Jiayou's Fun

Anlefang is just east of Min'anfang, and there is an artificial canal between the two markets.

Different from Min'anfang, where all the residents of Min'anfang were relatives of the emperor and founding fathers, most of the residents in Anlefang were the new rich people of the later dynasty.

Tianenhou was born into such a newly rich man.

Because it was favored by the emperor, the scale of Tianenhou Mansion was even much larger than the ordinary Duke's Mansion.

Also occupying the north side of Anlefang, the mansion building is more than a thousand acres in size and is extremely magnificent.

However, compared with the Laiguogong Mansion in Min'anfang, the trunks of the green pines and cypresses in the courtyard of Tianenhou Mansion are much thinner. The plum blossoms of various colors planted in the courtyard of Laiguo Duke's Mansion, and the trunks of the thousand-year-old plums are often as thick as a water tank, while the plum blossoms planted in Tian'enhou Mansion are so skinny that they are only the size of an arm.

In addition to the trees, under the courtyard wall of Tianenhou Mansion, the carved patterns on the exquisite stone foundations of the courtyard wall are also very clear, exuding a cutting-edge pyrotechnic atmosphere.

As for the courtyard walls of Laiguo Palace, the stone patterns have long been covered with moss, and the traces of wind and rain naturally carry the aura of a wealthy family accumulated in history.

Early in the morning, just after dawn, Mrs. Hu, the housewife of Tianen Hou Mansion, was dressed neatly. Panting, with the help of two little maids, she climbed up the highest building in the back garden of Hou Mansion with some difficulty. Pavilion, stretched his neck and looked towards the west.

The location of Laiguogong's Mansion in Min'anfang is opposite to the location of Tian'enhou's Mansion in Anlefang. There is an artificial canal and most of Min'anfang between them.

Even when the weather is the best, standing in this attic, you can't see any movement in the Laiguo Palace.

Not to mention, under the sky full of snow and dense clouds, Mrs. Hu could only see in the middle of the frozen canal, teams of sleds transporting supplies, and groups of naughty boys digging holes in the ice to fish.

Even the movement on the street on the other side of the canal, which was densely packed with restaurants and restaurants, could not be seen clearly with Mrs. Hu's eyesight.

However, Mrs. Hu has developed this problem over the years.

Every morning, she would not go upstairs to see what was going on at the Duke Lai's mansion. She didn't even feel like eating all day long.

Holding the heavy golden step on the armrest with her hand, Mrs. Hu tightened the fire fox fur cloak wrapped around her body and sighed with a sad face: "Why are other people's families so rich? "

The two little maids did not dare to say anything.

My wife has been thinking about the property in Laiguo Duke's mansion for more than a year or two.

However, although Marquis Tianen came from the Duke of Lai Kingdom, he now has a separate residence. Although he is a descendant of the Lu family in Jingyang, he has already separated from the Duke of Lai.

Unless all the men in the direct line of the Laiguo Duke's eldest son died cleanly, the Tian'enhou Palace would never be concerned about such a huge property.

That wealth is as valuable as gold and silver.

Tsk tsk.

The two little maids thought about their wife's past behavior, carefully held their breath, and lowered their heads deeply.

"Hey, this wealth." Mrs. Hu gritted her teeth and yelled in the direction of Laiguo Duke's Mansion, stamping her feet vigorously: "Call the housekeeper, stewards, and accountants to come over. It's almost the new year. You have to give me a clear account of the general ledger at the end of this year."

Speaking of the word 'general ledger', Mrs. Hu's eyes suddenly lit up.

She asked the two little maids beside her in a faint tone: "You said that our family's account book at the end of each year is only a few inches thick."

"I heard that the account books compiled by their family at the end of each year are five or six feet thick."

"How can they afford such a huge property?"

The two little maids became more and more afraid to speak.

Half an hour later, Mrs. Hu's angry scolding came from the hall of Tianenhou Mansion.

"The profit of this silk and satin shop this year is a full 820 guan less than last year. Where did the money go? Go on, fight hard, carefully and carefully. Where did the money go? Give me every penny. Chase it back.”

"Compared with last year, these three grain stores are not much different. This year's profits are about the same as last year."

"It can be seen that you three shopkeepers are not working hard this year. How come there is no increase in profits at all?"

"Come on, I won't beat you, but don't think about any rewards. Go back and have a good start in the new year, work hard and work hard. If it's still like this next year, be careful of your lone crutch."

"Well, the others are not bad. This jewelry store has made a lot of money. Hey, it actually made 18,000 guan more than last year! Hey, hey, don't tell me, madam, that I treat my servants badly. You are all my own. When I have a son at home, Madam, I am the most generous, fair, and clear in rewards and punishments, but I have never had anything to say to you."

"As a big shopkeeper, you, tsk, it's hard to make money these days. You, madam, I have made the decision. I will reward you twenty, no, ten strings, so that you can have a good life when you go back."

"This restaurant..."

"This vinegar shop..."

"This cloth village..."

"This firewood shop..."

"This tooth shop..."

"This inn..."

"This Zhuangzi..."

After working hard for most of the day, until late in the evening, Mrs. Hu finally clapped her hands with satisfaction: "Okay, it's done, it's done. Come on, please put the money paid in by each shop into the warehouse."

"You have to be more careful. If you miss a copper coin, be careful of your crutch."

"This year is going well. During the Chinese New Year, madam, I will make a new dress for each of you. You will be so beautiful!"

"In the inventory of the cloth shop, there are more than ten pieces of rain-stained fine cloth. Although it has lost some color, it is still fine and good stuff. Ordinary rich people are reluctant to part with it. I can use it to make new clothes for you. The whole pickaxe Jing, apart from me, Madam, where else can there be such a generous master? You guys, just have fun secretly!"

A quarter of an hour later, in the backyard of Tianenhou Mansion, Mrs. Hu's cries for her dead father and mother rose to the sky.

"The one who killed a thousand swords, the one who killed a thousand swords, why are you here again?"

"My money, my money, my money..."

"The year before last has come, and the year before that has come again!"

"I came here last year, and I came last year again!"

"I came here last year, why are you here again this year?"

"Can't you steal it from another family member's house?"

"Thieves also have their ways. You are so immoral and unethical. You want to kill our family if you catch them!"

"My money, my money, my money, ah, ah, ah!"

"You useless losers!"

"A loser who grew up eating pig chaff!"

"He deserves to be chopped into pieces with a thousand cuts and no head!"

"The Marquis asked you to look after the house. Is this how you look after the house?"

"My money, my money, my money!"

"Woo woo, woo woo, go report to the official, report to the official, take the master's name to report to the official!"

"Send more people!"

"Send more people!"

"Sound the drum of injustice!"

"King the Xie Zhi bell!"

"If we can't catch the thief, no one will have a good year!"
