Chapter 12 White Fox Cubs

"I didn't expect that the prefect had so much money hidden in the house. Unfortunately, these treasures and antiques cannot be seen, and they are too bulky to take them casually. They have to pick some items that are easy to deal with and these silver notes."

Ding Dang counted his achievements in talking about the magistrate's back home at night.

Last night, he talked about the county government office and wandered around several places in the treasury for a few times, which was really eye-opening.

Otherwise, what if you say that you are promoted and made money, isn’t it just about getting rich?

The prefect saved up more than two years after taking office, and he saved up a net worth of more than 100,000 taels. This is not the item that is difficult to convert. There is so much cash alone.

"Is this what you think of to make money?"

Ding Yuchen didn't say anything about her brother's stealing behavior. Strictly speaking, she didn't have much awareness of the law in the world.

"This kind of thing is a must-have, and it is a temporary urgent matter. You can't count on this after a while."

"It's better to use the money to buy a few stores. I've asked about a few stores in Chengdong that seem to have plans to re-sell them."

Ding Yuchen lit the gold leaves, silver notes, gold bars and other items on the plate and roughly found a number.

"The price of gold has increased. These gold leaves are worth 2,000 taels. If you add silver notes, you can get more than 5,000 taels. I have never seen gold bars and cannot price them, but no matter how cheap it is, it will not be less than 5,000 taels. This is combined into one place, which is 10,000 taels of silver and 9 cents of silver."

Gold is rarely circulated nowadays, and gold bars and bricks are used unless it is a bulk transaction. Usually, gold leaves are used more often.

Ninety cent silver is silver with a purity of 90% silver, and most money shops use this kind of circulating silver.

The exchange rate between silver and gold prices changes every day, roughly around 160 to 1, sometimes 100 to 1, and sometimes 300 to 1.

So the valuation is vague.

Both of these are actually very heavy. Ding Dang cannot bring too much with him alone. Time is in a hurry, and most of them are the silver notes he brought back.

Unfortunately, these silver notes seem to be large, but their denominations are not large. Most of them are denominations of 100 taels, and there are still ten taels, five taels, or even one taels, which is not as much as you imagined.

Large silver notes, which exceed 100 taels, are not so easy to withdraw cash. You must bring the seal and signature of the owner of the household to withdraw it. Otherwise, even if others get the silver notes, they will not want to withdraw a penny.

Money houses need to spend money to save money.

The so-called money house is a place where money is saved. When the head of the household deposits money, he has to pay the fees on time.

"I'll just make the decision on these things, and I don't understand them anyway."

"You...you have told you to study more. You are such a big person and you can't even manage your accounts."

"Reading has nothing to do with accounting. There are a few people who know how to pay the accounting, so you should hire a accountant."

When it comes to studying, Ding Dang is indifferent.

He lay listlessly on the table, like wilted vegetables.

"Is reading really that annoying? Why do I find it very interesting!"

Ding Yuchen asked curiously.

She is very interested in poetry, opera and various books on earth. She bought a copy of the books that can be bought on the market.

"It's very boring. All the poems, songs, operas are whining without any illness. Only historical books are interesting, but there are only unofficial history notes in the bookstore, and there is not even a single official history, so I have to read it as a novel."

"As for the sayings of sages and sages of hundreds of schools, I can't read a single word. Those so-called sages are not as good as those guests we met in the Water Mansion. They are all frivolous and speak empty words. I haven't seen a few good books that will attract attention."

Ding Dang got up and walked outside and said:

"I had some unexpected gains last night. I had to go out of the city today, and I'm afraid I won't be back tomorrow. If you have something to do here, please send it yourself. That prefect is not a good-looking lamp, and most likely it will cause some things."

"I know, be careful on the way and try to kill as little as possible to avoid causing the local city god to be unhappy."

When the siblings practiced the sword immortality first, they were like Kaifeng's weapon. When the murderous aura was strong, they tried to kill as little as possible.

...

About a hundred miles outside the city, trees, flowers and plants are growing everywhere on an unknown hill.

It was autumn, and a slaughtering field was filled with yellow leaves.

On the path entering the mountain, the group of people carried bows and arrows, led hunting dogs, stood falcons on their shoulders, and followed by a large group of civilians. Hundreds of people entered the mountain in a mighty way.

"Listen, the prefect said that as long as the white fox is all white, it is best to live. After the event is completed, each of you will have at least twenty taels of silver and three gold leaves. If you can catch the alive, the reward will be doubled."

"You are all the best hunters nearby. I know you all have your own unique skills. You can't hide your own private life this time. Whether you can have a good New Year is here to see this trip!"

The confidant servant of the prefect has now changed into hunting suits, looking like a big housekeeper, walking in front of the team and giving instructions to more than a dozen hunters.

"It's okay to chase foxes. Who here doesn't know how to chase foxes? But are there really white foxes here?"

"Foxes without any color in their bodies are all alien species, which are rare. I have never heard of them in Maolin."

"I have been hunting here for nearly ten years. I have never seen a white fox. There are only red foxes, and the fur is not pure, and there are always variegated colors."

"Even if the fox with white hair is not variegated at all..."

The hunters complained, "The white fox, and the white fox with no fur, are so difficult. It will take so many years to meet one!"

"My magistrate invited Liu Banxian to calculate that there must be a white fox here, you just do your best."

This trusted servant looked proud and took the banner of the old blind man on his own.

Although the prefect did not explicitly say that the blind old Taoist was instructing him, I still can't guess it!

When the master saw Blind Liu, he turned around and asked me to bring someone here to find a fox. Who else could he calculate except the one who was so divine and sacred blind man?

Need more to say?

Thinking proudly, this servant was showing off in front of others again, making Liu Banxian look unconscious, which made several hunters stunned.

Poor that blind old man, all his advice was in vain.

A little fox as big as a palm slipped away from the grass beside the road, with his forelimbs off the ground and stood up, and he had already heard almost the words of the group.

After a while, it followed a path that only it knew, circled a few times and went into the cave.

The little fox called anxiously into the cave.

Soon, a small white fox cub slowly crawled out.

It is snow-white all over and there is no variegated hair.
