After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

Upon hearing it, Shui Qing and Fan Jin breathed a sigh of relief.

If you don’t need to move it, then there won’t be much.

Come to think of it, there was only one car. Although it was a two-carriage, it still carried three people, so it probably couldn't carry too much stuff.

I saw Bai Manshan taking out several long boxes. The first one he opened was a brush, all kinds of brushes!

Each branch has the four characteristics of "pointed, neat, round, and strong", and the hair color of each branch is different. It is pure, clean, winter, and plain, and the branches are top-grade.

Fan Jin's eyes fell on it and he couldn't move away immediately.

What Shui Qing thought was that this gift really went to the heart of the scholar.

Even though she didn't know anything about calligraphy, she could tell that every calligraphy brush in this intricately carved bamboo box was of the highest quality, let alone Fan Jin.

The second box opened to reveal long black strips, some long and some short, varying lengths.

Shui Qing didn't see what it was at first, but he immediately thought of it from Fan Jin's dark eyes!

Besides ink, what else can there be?

Only something related to reading can make Fan Jin show such fondness.

The third item is the inkstone. This should be prepared according to the number of students in the family, because there are six.

I must have heard Bai Ziqian say that he knew that Yan Qiuxing was also studying and literate. What was even more rare was that they thoughtfully prepared a copy for their two daughters without favoring one over the other.

Fan Jin and Shui Qing discovered this at the same time and felt even better.

The fourth item is paper.

"The snow is white, soft and holds ink. Is this rice paper?" Fan Jin looked at Bai Manshan and asked.

Shui Qing had heard of rice paper, but she had never bought one - people who didn't learn calligraphy would rarely come into contact with these.

Now after hearing Fan Jin's words, I realized that the Ming Dynasty also had rice paper.

Bai Manshan said with a smile: "I am a rough man, I don't understand the beauty of these papers, and it is a waste to use them;

I heard from Qian'er that you are a scholar, so I thought I would give it to you so as not to waste the good paper. "

"Me, it's a waste even if I use it." Fan Jin muttered, thinking of his repeated misses.

"How can you scholars call it wasteful to write? As long as you like it!" Li Huyu said with a smile.

Fan Jin really likes it.

His slender fingers rubbed the snow-white soft paper over and over again, as if he couldn't put it down.

Shui Qing was also happy for Fan Jin. They had enough food and clothing, but they were far from meeting the conditions to buy these good things. If Fan Jin were to buy them, he would definitely be reluctant to part with them.

Now the gift from Bai Manshan and Li Huyu is this. It was really chosen with care.

She thanked Fan Jin on behalf of the overjoyed Fan Jin: "Thank you for your trouble!"

Li Huyu felt happy from the bottom of her heart when she saw that the gift she gave him was liked so much. At the same time, she was impressed by her husband's thoughtfulness.

Seeing that the first gift was delivered and recognized, Bai Manshan breathed a sigh of relief. He got into the carriage again and took out a wooden box as big as three bricks.

This time it was handed to Shui Qing.

Shuiqing looked at it and saw that the wooden box was rectangular, small and exquisite, with auspicious cloud patterns on it. It was simple but not crude, and had a good meaning.

Rouge gouache?

After all, it’s a gift for a woman and it’s not big, so it should be these, right?

Although she didn't like to put on makeup and powder, no matter what, it was a gift carefully prepared by someone else. She had a bright smile on her face. She took it and thanked her smoothly: "I'm sorry you brought me rouge."

The rest of the words disappeared the moment the wooden box was opened.

Where is the rouge and gouache inside the wooden box?

They are golden, really, because they are all thin and slender gold leaves, filling a box full!

Shui Qing and Fan Jin were shocked at the same time when they saw what was in the wooden box!

"You two have saved Qian'er's life, so I won't hide it. I just hope that what we say today will come out of my mouth and into your ears, and no one else will know!" Bai Manshan said in a low voice.

Shui Qing and Fan Jin turned their heads and looked over blankly. They didn't understand what Bai Manshan's words had to do with sending gold leaves.

Bai Manshan's smile that had been on his face since he came in faded and was replaced by worry. He sighed: "Although I am a businessman, I have a little money, and businessmen are always the most sensitive to information. News came from the capital a few days ago. , Our new emperor really wants to cut down the feudal vassal!

And it is very likely that there will be trouble after the new year! All those vassal kings had money, land and people, and there was always a vassal king who would fight to the death.

I asked the craftsmen to punch out these gold leaves overnight. You can sew them carefully on the hem of the inner garment. If you are running away or separated, you may be able to save your life at a critical moment. "

Li Huyu advised from the side: "Don't be polite to us. We have thought about this for a long time. In today's chaotic world, gold nuggets and silver ingots are not safe to keep at home and are inconvenient to carry around.

The bulging ones are more likely to be noticed by others, so they are beaten into gold leaves to make them easier to carry and hide. "

Shui Qing wants to say that she also knows that the flakes are easy to hide, but she can't hold up your box. This big box can be made into golden clothes. Can it be hidden?

What they hid were silver pieces, but when Bai Manshan and Li Huyu took action, they were gold!

And it’s still a box full!

One tael of gold is equal to ten taels of silver.

This box weighs at least ten kilograms, and once you get it, there are gold leaves calculated by the kilogram, which is too much!

"But, this is really too much." Fan Jin frowned.

"No more, no more. Qian'er has always wanted to come and live with you for a while. If you really think it's too much, the rest can be used as Qian'er's food expenses." Bai Manshan also has his own little Jiujiu.

That is, if there is really chaos, Fucheng will definitely be a battleground, and Nandu will not be able to escape.

Once the city is broken, there will most likely be massacres, massacres, and looting... There is no way to hide in the Bai family's mansion.

Before the world becomes chaotic, he must send Qian'er out, and this is the most suitable and safe place he can think of at the moment.

Shui Qing still felt it was a bit much.

She still couldn't figure it out. One second she gave him paper, inkstones, pens and ink, so why did she bring out a box of gold leaves the next second?

This is too cheesy.

"You don't have to worry. You see, we only have one carriage coming today. No one in the village would have thought that there would be gold leaves. We will send them away quietly and you will keep them quietly so that no one will miss them." Bai Manshan lowered his voice. road.

Shui Qing and Fan Jin finally understood why the three of them only rode in one carriage, which was the simplest carriage.

It turns out it’s all about not attracting attention!

And the gold is also given because it is smaller than silver. Is it easier to store?

Bai Manshan had thought so carefully that he was determined to let them accept it.

And he is right, in order to reduce vassal status and lead to troubled times, money and silver are indeed needed!

Shui Qing didn't show any pretense in the end, and while accepting it, she promised: "From now on, Zi Qian can come whenever he wants. This will be enough for his lifetime food expenses!"

Bai Manshan took a long breath.

When the world is unstable, he has to prepare for the worst.

Qian'er is his only child. Even if he dies, he must make arrangements for him before he dies.
