The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

Chapter 745: only with ears

Chapter 745

In the evening, Chang Lian didn't see his father at dinner, "Mother, didn't father come back?"

Zhulan put the peeled shrimp in the bowl of her younger son, "Your father is resting at the household department, and he won't be back in the next few days."

Chang Lian's heart is at the end of the month, and the Ministry of Household is indeed very busy, so he is relieved after asking.

Changzhong ate the shrimp, "Mother, my son can peel it himself, you don't need to peel it for your son, mother, you can eat it too."

Zhulan handed the peeled shrimp to her son's mouth, "Mother knows you can peel it, but I'm just afraid that you will stain your clothes."

This little guy is a little anxious, but he can't control his emotions at a young age.

The Ministry of Household, Zhou Shuren also had dinner, but did not go to rest, carefully checked the written plan, and made sure that there were no omissions, and then folded it and went to the purse.

He has long felt the entanglement of Master Qiu towards him. Since he met Master Xiao, Master Qiu has not been less tempted. When he is writing, Master Qiu will come to say a few words from time to time, and his eyes are not idle. Several times Landed on what he was writing, but fortunately he would cover it when he was done writing carefully.

Qiu Yan looked up at Zhou Shuren several times, and each time he frowned, he felt that Zhou Shuren had a solution. He wanted to inquire, but Zhou Shuren was guarding him. Lord Shang Shu has thought about it, the Ministry of Household really can't squeeze the money.

Qiu Yan looked at the account book on the table, "Master Zhou, I'm not busy here, can you help me share some of it?"

Zhou Shuren hooked his palm with his fingertips, with a smile on his face, "Okay."

Qiu Yan thanked him, "Thank you, if I do the accounting myself, I don't know when it will be finished."

Zhou Shuren took the account book sent by Qiu Yan, and he was very welcome. He divided it in half, "Master Qiu said thank you and went out. I am also the servant of the household department. Everyone is busy, how can I be lazy."

There was no smile in Qiu Yan's eyes, "Then leave this to Lord Zhou."

"good."

Zhou Shuren had taken the abacus, and he was very skilled in planning. Qiu Yan not only wanted to cheat him, but also wanted to waste his experience, but unfortunately, Qiu Yan miscalculated.

Qiu Yan raised his head when he heard the sound of the abacus, his eyes were getting colder and colder. When he came to the Ministry of Household, he also learned a little bit. Zhou Shuren was proficient when he came up. The person who helped with the calculation, his original intention was that Zhou Shuren could not finish it if he was not skilled, and he could mention it in the written premise tomorrow.

You must know that Lord Shang Shu is the least fond of helping people who are doing a disservice, especially when the Ministry of Households is the busiest, but now, his plans have failed, and Zhou Shuren's ability to settle accounts has been shown!

Zhou Shuren felt his gaze and raised his head with a smile, "Why does Master Qiu look at me like this?"

Qiu Yan laughed dryly, "I saw that Lord Zhou was going to be skilled, so I took a few more glances."

Zhou Shurenle explained, "In Lizhou, every penny had to be used carefully. Practice makes perfect, and I slowly learned it. As soon as I touched the abacus with my hand, it was very kind."

Qiu Yan couldn't help it, "So, Lord Zhou is really suitable for the Ministry of Household."

"I think so."

Qiu Yan didn't want to speak anymore, and he didn't want to see Zhou Shuren's smiling face that didn't change. Instead, it was more urgent. He couldn't calculate more slowly than Zhou Shuren, lowered his head and quickly checked the account book.

Zhou Shuren looked at Qiu Yan, this person is not small, he can understand Qiu Yan, Qiu Yan is also a jinshi in his thirties, and he has come to this day step by step for more than ten years. Qiu Yan will tell the transferred Lord Zhong. If you are convinced, you will no longer have any experience with him. His qualifications are shallow after all.

Early the next morning, Xiao Shangshu told Zhou Shuren the data, and Zhou Shuren had it in his hands in the morning.

Xiao Qing handed over the data to Zhou Shuren, "This was checked last night. The Ministry of Household has lost a lot of manpower. Now that it has been calculated, you can't even look back. Have you really figured it out?"

Zhou Shuren held the booklet, he was confident, "Xiaguan has figured it out."

There was a smile on Xiao Qing's serious face, and he just wanted to listen to it again to give himself more confidence, "Go ahead, I'll wait for your good news."

Zhou Shuren clenched the booklet, "Yes."

Back at the office, Zhou Shuren first looked at the jewelry and other data. The amount was quite large. He called Jin Yan, "Go to Xu's house and ask Mr. Xu about the price of overseas jewelry."

Honestly, "Yes."

Zhou Shuren is not afraid that the Xu family will tell lies. The Xu family owes the Zhou family a big favor, and the Xu family is backed by the prince. If he asks the Xu family, the prince will definitely get the news. can be more smooth.

When Qiu Yan came back, Zhou Shuren had already read all the data, some of the damaged calligraphy and paintings were genuine works that were hard to find, but the damage was a little serious, but it didn't matter, it was enough to use it as a gimmick, he didn't even think about it. The user will spend money to repair it.

In the Hanlin Academy, Chang Lian went to see the academician and came back. The room was very lively, "What's wrong?"

Master Lu pouted, "Shen Yang just came back from the palace and said that he wanted to treat guests, but he didn't want to join in the fun, he was discussing where to eat!"

Chang Lian saw the jade pendant on Shen Yang's table at a glance. This is not something that Shen Yang can have. A few days ago, Shen Yang had a very tight life. The house was sold in the past two days, and Shen Yang did not treat guests as generously as before. Combined with everyone's reactions, "He got a reward?"

Young Master Lu couldn't be jealous, "Well, the crown prince rewarded the jade pendant."

He has also entered the palace several times, and he has not received a reward once. "Speaking of which, you have also entered the palace a few times, and you have not received a reward!"

Chang Lian sat back to his seat, sighed, he was not jealous, just wondered, how could the crown prince reward Shen Yang, or surpass the emperor?

Shen Yang came over, "Chang Lian, let's have dinner together at night, are you going?"

Chang Lian smiled estrangedly, "Thanks, I won't go at night."

This reward made him feel that Shen Yang was simply a super trouble!

Shen Yang just asked, but he didn't expect Zhou Changlian to go, thinking of the news he heard in the palace, his eyes pondered, "It's raining heavily in the south, and money is urgently needed, the Ministry of Household must be very busy!"

Zhou Changlian squinted his eyes. People from their Hanlin Academy entered the palace from time to time, and the news was naturally well-informed. He knew what Shen Yang wanted to say.

Chang Lian said indifferently: "Be careful, this is not something we should discuss. It is better to only wear ears when entering the palace."

Shen Yang wanted to refute, but swallowed the words from his mouth, he didn't dare to say more, he was just a little happy, what if he joined the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Households is now very difficult, and he knew that the Ministry of Households was short of money than he thought.

At this time, the onlookers have all dispersed. Shen Yang has won the crown prince's reward. They have to be wary. Zhou Changlian has a father of a household servant, and they must also be wary. It's not fun, especially Zhou Changlian's words. I can only use my ears~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Palace, the crown prince received the news, and then relayed it to his father, "Zhou Shuren has paid attention to the Ministry of Housing's extrusion of jewelry."

The emperor hummed and was more concerned, "Is jewelry sold overseas very expensive?"

The prince didn't dare to hide, "It's half the price in China. If it's precious gemstone jewelry, the price can be doubled."

The emperor narrowed his eyes, "So the tax is still low."

Prince, "...Yes."

At this time, the person staring at Shen Yang reported.

The emperor, "Zhou Shuren will indeed teach his son."

The prince agrees, secretly thinking, fortunately, Shen Yang is fake!
