Pet wife Imperial Examination Road

From Mrs. Meng's hometown, I brought six or seven people who are very good at making gold ingots. They are all old women in their 40s and [-]s. Some of them have been making gold ingots since they were young.

Yun Yun saw that they were well-groomed and looked like peasants, so she ordered, "In the next few days, you will all live in Baiyang County, and the official will arrange a small courtyard for you to work in. The requirement is that you must not go out these few days, and someone will deliver your food to you, and you cannot tell others what you do."

It was so mysterious, the women below began to whisper, and looked at Yun Yun's doubtful face with two eyes.

"This place is not easy to talk about, let's talk about it when we get there."

There were only two carriages in the county mansion, Yun Yun asked them to sit in them, and she and her sister rode behind. ** Seeing no one around, whispered, "My lord, it's not good for you to do this."

"Of course it's not good for me, but it's good for you."

"If the prefect finds out after he goes back, we'll all go to jail."

"Of course, but if we run away before that, they won't be able to catch anyone." After speaking, Yun Yun kicked her horse's belly and quickly ran to the front of the carriage.

The yard prepared by Yunyun is in the suburbs, with few people. The houses are all thatched cottages, which need to be repaired and used.When we arrived in the yard, several large mahogany boxes were placed in the yard.

"Come down, **you go outside and guard, I'll tell them."

After saluting, she went down. Yun Yun gathered the women in the center of the yard and said, "You are all ingenious people. I just happen to do one thing here, and the wages are paid at the normal price. As long as the thing is done well Yes, only give more and not less."

The leading old woman asked, "What is so mysterious?"

"Can you fold silver coins?"

They looked at each other, and one or two raised their hands and said, "My lord, when we were young we played by ourselves."

"This box is filled with silver foil. I want you to fold a whole box of silver for me, and I want it to look exactly like the real silver."

"My lord, how is this possible, the silver is so heavy, no matter how much this paper is stacked, it is not good to touch even if it looks the same."

"I've considered this issue, but I don't know how to do it, and I don't know how to stack it. If you add soil to increase the weight, it may be exactly the same?"

A woman said, "My lord, why don't I try first."

The woman took out the silver foil paper from the box, folded it delicately, and added soil into it as she folded it, and when it was completely folded, she wiped off what had leaked out and handed it to Yun Yun.

Yun Yun took out an ingot of silver from her bosom, put one in her left hand and the other in her right hand, felt it twice and said, "It's really the same, but it feels different to the touch, and it's not so cold when it's made of paper. But it's enough." Now, here are a few real silver, you can do it according to the weight, remember to do it in the same amount, otherwise our efforts will be in vain.”

"My lord, what do you want this extra money for?"

"You will know this later, it must be good for you."

It must be good if the county magistrate said yes. They have lived in Baiyang for so many years, and they have never met such a clear and bright official. The county magistrate will definitely not harm them.

Yun Yun asked them to work overtime to drive them out, and after they were finished, they were neatly placed in the center of the box, and if there were any problems, they could be adjusted in time. The woman was paid for this easy job, and her enthusiasm naturally rose.

The prefect of Qingzhou stayed in Baiyang for two or three days, and went back to his home after waiting for Yun Yun's money to come.

On the day of leaving, the prefect had been sitting in the county mansion long ago, expecting to leave in the morning, but after waiting for a long time, Yun Yun's figure never appeared.Chen Yanzhi was also anxiously waiting beside him. The county magistrate knew when the prefect would leave, so why didn't he come back.

In the afternoon, the prefect couldn't sit still anymore, and made a big fuss in the county mansion, "Your county magistrate is so vile, you know that I'm going to leave, but you still haven't come out to meet him, don't you want the hat on your head? Wait a minute!" I will take care of him when I return to Qingzhou!"

The eunuch just walked to the gate of the county mansion, and when he was about to go out, ** greeted him face to face, "My lord, my lord has something urgent to come back, please forgive me." After finishing speaking, ** said in his ear "This year's taxes have been collected, but there is a town that is slow to transport. Our adults will go to pick up the money in person. It is estimated that it will be here soon. It doesn't matter if you leave later. Our adults said that this kind of thing is not good. On the surface, if the common people know what they think, we can do a private transaction, and you will collect the money later and take it back to Qingzhou in the dark, so you can have a good reputation."

In the past, there was indeed a situation where the common people knew that paying more taxes was for the prefect of Qingzhou, and then blatantly blocked the gate of the county government. This Yun Yun looked young, but she did not expect to be quite considerate in doing things, even taking his face into consideration. He took it under his command.

"Okay, then I will reluctantly wait a little longer."

The sky outside gradually darkened, but the prefect became more and more at ease sitting on the grand teacher's chair. Yun Yun saw that the sky was about the same, so she asked someone to carry a big mahogany box into the county mansion.

"My lord, everything is here." The two officers and soldiers struggled to carry the mahogany box. Just looking at them, they felt that there were a lot of things in the box.

The prefect pretended to cough twice, and acted like an upright official, "This year's tax revenue is good, just keep doing this for the next few years, and the people will naturally love you."

Yun Yun also pretended to reply, "Yes."

"Come here, open the box and have a look."

The officers and soldiers next to him opened the box, and under the light, the contents inside the box were shining brightly. You couldn't teach people to look directly at them. There were neat rows of silver inside, which made your heart move just by looking at it.The eunuch was about to touch it, but Yun Yun blocked his hand, "My lord, this thing is already in hand, so there is no need to worry, but the lower official thinks, hurry up and carry the box to the carriage while it is dark, and wait Go back to Qingzhou Mansion and take a good look."

The prefect was not a fool either, the silver in this box seemed to be quite a lot, fearing that someone might pretend to be it, he picked one up casually, felt that the weight was similar to the feel of the hand, and waved for someone to carry it away with confidence.The people who followed the prefect were a little uneasy, for fear that the money in it was fake.

"My lord, don't check again."

The prefect replied, "It's just a small county magistrate, not so bold. If he dares to do other things, I will naturally not let him go."

Finally sent the Buddha away, the eunuch just got into the carriage and couldn't see the shadow of the carriage, Yun Yun went back to pack her things.
