Guo Qianni: "I asked you three questions just now, why did you only answer me one?"

Wen Ran looked at her innocently with big black and bright eyes: "sister-in-law, this is also a question. Do you really want me to answer it? Give me a piece of silver if you want to answer it."

Guo Qianni: "No need!"

If you answer one, you know three answers.

Who is "Seventeen Brother"? Guo Qianni just wanted to ask who the seventeenth brother was and what came to mind, she immediately changed her words: "What's the seventeenth brother's name?"

"Brother Seventeen is called Seventeen! He didn't tell us his name."

Guo Qianni had the urge to vomit blood again, and if she asked, it was like asking in vain, but she was ranked seventeenth in the family, which proved that this person's family was not a small family.

"Then do you know his last name? Where does he live? How did you meet him?"

"Three pieces of silver."

Guo Qianni didn't want to describe how she felt at the moment, and silently took out the money.

"I don't know. He only told us that his name was Seventeen. Da Hui and Xiao Hei brought my sister to meet him."

Why are there two more people? ? ? ! ! ! !

...

In the end, Guo Qianni held the empty purse and watched Wen Ran jumping home and she deeply felt that she was trapped by a little girl!

She spent twenty taels of silver and got to know a man named Seventeen who lived on the mountain. Nothing else is known.

I also learned that a wolf is called Da Hui and an eagle is called Xiao Hei.

I also know a young master Feng, only the surname is Feng, and the others are unknown.

Their family helped Seventeenth Brother and Young Master Feng to cook. Because the food was delicious, Seventeenth Brother helped to write a recommendation letter and said that he might not be admitted. That gentleman was very strict, but his brother and the others were too good to be admitted.

So, in exchange for a couple of taels of silver, their family just helped people cook, and then only got a letter of recommendation after receiving a reward from the master's family?

But the three brothers were lucky enough to be accepted as apprentices by Chang Lin!

Being a cook is just a servant. Even if you get a face in front of the master, you are still a servant!

Have you ever heard that cooks can rise to prominence? Forgive them, they can't make any waves!

But who is the seventeenth son of Hefeng?

Guo Qianni held her empty purse and returned to the old house.

Today is really a big loss, twenty taels of silver, plus the three purses I just sent out, each of which also has a pearl flower and a silver thorn!

She thought that their family had some unknown secrets, who knows...

Wrong fish eyes for pearls!

After Wen Ran returned home, she happily showed off to Wen Nuan: "Third sister, I also made money! A lot!"

Wen Ran poured out all the money in the purse, and counted it, there were actually twenty-five taels!

Nuan was a little surprised: "How did you earn it?"

Wen Ran explained what happened just now vividly.

Wen Nuan couldn't help laughing: "You eccentric, well done!"

After Wennuan finished speaking, he felt that it was wrong. How could he teach children to make money with this kind of sidestepping!

She had a solemn expression, coughed, and said sternly: "There is a way to make money, we can't use this deceptive method to make money, you know?"

Wen Ran waved his hand: "Third sister, stop pretending! You can't wait for me to lie a little more! I know, I don't lie to other people, I only lie to that family! I call it robbing the rich and helping the poor!"

Warmly denied: "Am I such a person?"

Wen Ran nodded: "Don't pretend! Third sister, I think you are really what you are!"

on the mountain

One gray and one black figure stood on the top of the mountain, his clothes flying.

The silver-clothed man stared at the people who were mining jade mines in full swing.

At the foot of the mountain, Wen Jiafu, the county magistrate, was surrounded by a rough jade stone with a diameter as large as a wooden barrel.

Wen Jiafu excitedly asked an old man, "Master, is this stone jade?"

The old man nodded: "Yes, I can guarantee it is definitely jade!"

"How is the condition?" The county magistrate asked nervously.

This is related to whether he will get rich in the future!

"Not bad! I guess it should be mostly jade."

The two looked at each other and laughed!

Posted!

Posted!

"Quick, come out and have a look!" The county magistrate waved his hand.

He invited "heavy soldiers" to guard here day and night, and also invited stone cutters to cut stones here.

After preparing for many days, I also built a few thatched huts here for the mining workers to live in to facilitate their mining day and night. Today, a piece of rough jade was finally mined!

...

The man in black on the top of the mountain asked, "Master, do you need me to recover the jade mine?"

As long as he went and said that he had already bought the jade mine, the yamen did not know, and he could take it back if he sold more than one mountain.

As long as he forgives his identity as the master, no one dares to rob them.

take it back?

"No need! Just pay attention to the whereabouts of the rough stones they opened. If there are any lost, pick them up." Nalan Jinnian's eyes turned cold again.

"Yes." The man in black didn't understand why the master didn't bring back the jade mine, but he didn't ask any further questions.

He just did what he was told.

When the two saw this, they did not continue to watch, and went straight down the mountain.

Shortly after the two left, the rough jade stone was cut out.

"Is this jade?" The county magistrate looked at the old man.

I'm afraid he's not kidding himself, right?

The old man sweated on his forehead: "No, it's not."

How can it be the worst quality jade?

It doesn't sell for much silver!

Wen Jiafu is more optimistic: "Sir, this is just scraps, and the quality of jade is almost possible! Let's see how the other ones are out!"

"Cut! Hurry up and cut it for me!" The county magistrate directly threw the inferior jade cut aside.

In the end, the jade quality of the few rough stones that were opened couldn't be worse.

The cold air started to rise from the soles of Wen Jiafu's feet!

He looked up at the whole mountain, and a terrible thought rose in his heart~~

Not the whole mountain is...

He was agitated and trembled all over!

puff! He put out the thought that had just arisen like a fire extinguisher!

Do not!

Certainly not!

"Cut, let me cut everything that comes out!" The county magistrate wiped off the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and said angrily.

...

The county government office, Ouyang Huai'an knew that Nalan Jin had come, and rushed over immediately.

As soon as he stepped into the house, he immediately wailed:

"Seventeen, you're not being kind! I sold that stone mountain wrong, I was wrong! I deserve to die! But I have already paid 30,000 taels to the little girl! You still have to give such an order? Germany Since ancient times, the spring and summer floods have never been cured! You asked me to find a way to control the water within a year, how can I cure it? In another year, I still won’t be able to collect enough money to build a river bank!”

The Deyuan River is flooded, and spending hundreds of thousands of taels every year is a drop in the bucket.

If he wanted to be cured, how could he get millions of taels of silver? He secretly rejoiced that day. Although the Deyuan River flows through Ningyuan County, the most dangerous place is in Dehuai County.

Why did it fall to him today?

Nalan Jinnian said solemnly: "This is an order from the Ministry of Industry and has nothing to do with this king."

Ouyang Huai'an rolled his eyes, he believed him to be a big head!

Just know that this person will not let him go!

"Brother, I will find a way to help you get back the jade mine, please spare me!"

Nalan Jinnian glanced at him lightly: "If you dare to interfere with the jade mine, you can go to Dehuai County to manage the river!"

Ouyang Huai'an immediately shut up.

He's not Dayu, and he's really not good at controlling floods!
