Rebirth of Okuki Kofuro

The account books of the wine shop and the account books of the Liang family are calculated separately. The income of the Liang family wine shop, excluding all kinds of expenses, can earn 300 to [-] taels of silver for a whole year. It is not bad to have this income. After all, Liang The wine shop is not too big.

Father Liang took all the money earned from the wine shop to Mrs. Zhuang. Mrs. Zhuang is not a woman who spends money recklessly. However, the Liang family has saved a lot of money over the years. After careful calculation, the annual expenses are miscellaneous. The miscellaneous added up to more than 100 taels.

We must know that when Qu Yi was in charge of Liang's family accounts, the annual expenses were less than 20 taels of silver, which also included Liang Kangsheng's medical expenses.

Of course, that's because the Liang family had already gone downhill when he was in charge of the account, so he had to save everything, so naturally he didn't dare to use too much.

After Quyi discovered something was wrong, he carefully calculated the account books of the past few years. He concluded that Liang Kangsheng spent about ten taels a year for studying, and about ten to fifteen taels for seeing a doctor and taking medicine.

The Liang family had no relatives and friends, and after the death of the Zhuang family's parents, she had less contact with the Zhuang family. Even if they gave a gift during the Chinese New Year, the favors usually cost no more than ten taels of silver.

That is to say, every year the Liang family needs to spend more than 65 taels of silver for food and clothing, etc. After Quyi told the amount he calculated, Liang Kangsheng also felt that something was wrong.

"Brother Yi, do you mean that the amount of things purchased at home far exceeds what we use?" Liang Kangsheng took the account book and looked at the place Qu Yi pointed out. He saw a familiar yet unfamiliar thing.

Regardless of whether it is Liang's father or Zhuang's family, neither of them are extravagant and extravagant people, but among the fabrics bought the year before last, there was a bolt of silk brocade, which was a very expensive kind of brocade. It only cost five taels of silver, and Liang Kangsheng knew his mother well, she wouldn't buy it.

Speaking of which, Liang Kangsheng knew that the silk brocade was made through Fang Junyan, and the assets of the Fang family were enough to allow them, the heirs, to wear this kind of material.

After Fang Junyan left the Liang family, he asked his family's caravan to bring gifts to the Liang family. One of them was silk brocade. Liang Kangsheng saw that the material looked familiar at the time, so he asked the steward who came to deliver the things.

Liang Kangsheng was sure that his mother hadn't worn the clothes made of Gusi brocade in these years. At that time, he felt that the material of Gusi brocade was familiar and he thought he had seen similar ones. When he saw that there was Gusi brocade in the ledger today, he suddenly wanted to understand why It looks familiar, because he saw his little aunt pass through!

Frowning, Liang Kangsheng quickly looked through the ledgers and ledgers. After a rough look, he found a lot of useless things at home, but his uncle and the others used them.

Seeing that Liang Kangsheng just looked but didn't say anything, Qu Yi anxiously pushed him: "Sir, what's wrong with you?"

Liang Kangsheng read it in twos and put the account book aside, and said with a complicated mood: "Brother Yi, it's because of my uncle and the others."

"I know my mother has always felt guilty towards my uncle. Every time my uncle comes to the house, my mother will give him a lot of things. I never think about it. I believe my father is the same, but I didn't expect that the things that my uncle and others use will be It's better than mine."

Hearing this, Qu Yi's eyes widened. He had calculated before that the normal annual expenses of the Liang family should be within 30 taels of silver. If his calculations were correct, that is to say, the Zhuang family spent at least There are more than 30 taels.

And according to the conclusion he got from looking at the account book, the amount of money is more than one year. From last year's account book, the money that Zhuang's subsidized his natal brother was close to 60 taels of silver.

This amount is close to a quarter of the annual income of the Liang Family Winery, not a small amount of money, but the Liang family never cared about it before.

If Zhuang Qingze and the others had no ill intentions towards the Liang family, giving the money would be regarded as repaying the care of the Zhuang family's parents for the Liang family. The Liang family is worthless.

But the person who gave the money was the Zhuang family, Liang Kangsheng's mother. Thinking of Zhuang's temperament, Qu Yi couldn't help feeling a little annoyed: "Sir, what should we do?"

Liang Kangsheng frowned and thought for a while: "I'll find a way to get the remaining money from my mother."

Zhuang's "generous" subsidization of her younger brother is because she has enough money in her hand, so she always feels that her family has money and her younger brother is pitiful and has no one to help her. .

Quyi also knows the Zhuang family very well. He thinks that Liang Kangsheng's method is good. Before the family bought the fields and mountains, there was still some left. Now the fields and mountains have been sorted out, and there will be no need for large sums of money in the future. Where the money is spent, this year's new wine has already been brewed, so you can use up the rest of the money.

But what reason to take money?Qu Yi thought for a while and suggested: "Master, I think it's better to go to the county town to buy shops, and choose those remote places."

As soon as Liang Kangsheng heard Qu Yi's words, he understood what he meant and had an idea in his mind.

There was no need to hide the truth from Liang's father when dealing with Zhuang Qingze. After Liang Kangsheng and Qu Yi finished discussing, he took the account book and went to Liang's father, and told Liang's father about the problems Qu Yi had discovered and the amount he had spent "randomly" over the years.

"Too much deception!" Liang's father was so angry that his hair stood on end. The money the couple worked so hard to save was not used by the son, but was given to the white-eyed wolf. It was too much. For family affairs, the wife has soft ears, so she pries the corner of Liang's house like this.

Liang Kangsheng was not very angry: "Father, don't be angry, I don't know the situation at home, do you still have 600 taels of cash in the family account?"

"What's the matter?" Liang's father was puzzled, he was angry at the moment.

"I plan to persuade my mother to take out the money to buy a shop in the county, so that the family should have no money left." Liang Kangsheng replied, "After buying the shop, I will ask the dental dealer to help rent it out."

"What kind of shop can I buy for 600 taels?" Liang's father twitched his mouth when he heard his son's words, thinking that his son did not understand business when he was a child. Hotan may not be able to purchase it before, but now it is estimated that it is not enough.

"I don't plan to buy the ones with good locations, I just buy those with bad locations. At worst, I rent them to others as warehouses at a low price. I don't want my uncle and the others to come to my mother when they see that they have a shop at home and say they want to do business. I'm afraid we won't be able to receive them by then." The rent is a waste of work." Liang Kangsheng's idea was very clear, that is, he didn't want his little uncle to take advantage of him anymore.

Although these thoughts of his are very family-minded, but after his death, he no longer thinks about the integrity of a scholar. The money in the family is earned by his father's hard work in brewing wine. He would rather spend money to buy a shop that is empty than The money was "unconsciously" given to the uncle's family by his mother.

Father Liang was inexplicably amused when he heard Liang Kangsheng's words: "You boy..."

Because of the ventilation in advance, when Liang Kangsheng proposed to use the family's money to buy a shop at the dinner table, Liang's father helped to say a few words, and Zhuang agreed without hesitation.

The money was given to Liang Kangsheng by Liang's father. Liang Kangsheng took the money and went to the county dental office to find someone to buy two connected shops with poor locations. These two shops are not only in poor locations, but the houses are also very old. It has been a long time since no one has rented it, so the owner wanted to sell it.

Because things went well, the house deed came down within two days, and Liang Kangsheng took it home and handed it to Zhuang.

Looking at the two house deeds with Liang's father's name written on them, Zhuang's eyebrows twitched: "Sir, how much did you give Kang Sheng?"

Liang's father pretended not to know: "I gave him all the surplus money at home, and let him use it, what's wrong?"

"He bought two shops in the most remote alleys!" Zhuang clutched her chest, her heart was beating a little fast now, making her a little out of breath, "Sir, do you think Kang Sheng was fooled by someone?"

Father Liang took the deed to look at it, raised his eyebrows, and said, "These two shops are so big."

These two shops are really big, but they are also really out of the way. To be honest, Liang's father thinks that they might rent them out to others as a warehouse. Others think it's troublesome and far away, but he can't demolish his son's desk at this time.

Mrs. Zhuang knew roughly the price of shops in the county town, and she never expected her son to buy two such big shops in a daze: "What's the use of the big ones, these two shops won't be sold in the future."

Father Liang rubbed his nose and looked at his anxious wife. He looked at the location on the deed and thought for a while, then helped his son and said a few more words: "The other side of the alley is actually quite lively, and it's not too remote. Rong, think about the good."

"Actually, I think we bought the small yard at the back of the shop two years ago, and then opened up a big house. When we Kang Sheng passed the exam, he couldn't work in the winery like me. I think I can let him go to the county to open a private school, and then the big yard will be useful."

"Furthermore, these two shops are not far from my younger brother's home. My son and husband live in the county seat, and our husband and wife can also go to the county town to stay for a while from time to time. We think it would be convenient for us to get together with my younger brother and them."

Of course, the latter sentence was said by Father Liang to coax Zhuang. Even if his son and the others really moved to the county in the future, he would definitely not let that wolf-hearted thing Zhuang Qingze come to his house to plot against his son again, but what he said was opening a private school It's not a joke, he doesn't know how far his son will go in the future when he studies and takes the imperial examination. Anyway, it's okay for him as a father to think about his son first.

Mrs. Zhuang was originally a soft-tempered person, and her anger gradually calmed down under Liang's father's persuasion. However, her concern for her son and concern for her younger brother made her more pleasing to the eye the more she looked at the two land deeds, thinking that her son would buy this. Is that how it was planned when there were two shops?

Although the family has completely run out of money after buying these two shops, they still have money for food and clothing. In addition, the preparations for the Chinese New Year have been prepared, and there is no place to spend money for the time being, so the Zhuang family has no money in two days. Accepted these two tasteless shops.
