Chapter 347

After having dinner with my sisters in the evening, the sisters gathered together to play the piano and play music for a while before they each parted.

My parents are all in the old house, and Zilan has also slept in the old house. At night, I still have to go to the space to read and practice my talents. Can I relax myself when I am entertained?

The rest of the time is to grow grain and work, and there is no need to miss the work you should do.

I have already harvested a lot of food a few times. I asked my father that because it is hot, the food is not stored well outside and it is easy to rot. I should store it in the space first and take it out when it is cold.

Song Zhengtian spent most of his time busy with handover in the old house. Many things had to be handed over little by little, especially secret death soldiers, which could not be known to the clan members.

Yang also followed his grandmother and others to further study clan affairs, and was so busy that he didn't touch the ground. Zilan had to give everyone some good tea and fragrance to take care of his health.

Song Zhengtian went out early and came back late, and talked to several large debt-owing households. Today it was the Geng family's turn.

It was only after reading the file that I realized that the Geng family is a big debtor. The main reason is that they have raised a queen. They have owed a lot of money for a long time and have not paid it back.

Song Zhengtian specially made an appointment with Lord Geng in the ministry to discuss the matter.

"Mr. Song, if you don't look for me, I'm going to look for you. I'm really sorry for my child offended your daughter last time."

Lord Geng clasped his fists and apologized with a very kind smile.

Song Zhengtian smiled and held his fists back without any concern, "The emperor has done the disposal, no need to mention it."

I don't think so. I've been back for more than a month, so I haven't seen you come to pay a favor. I've just pretended to be like beasts when I see me now.

"It's good that you don't blame me. I don't know what you have to discuss when you ask me to come?"

Lord Geng smiled and nodded, and the matter was exposed lightly. He glanced at Song Zhengtian and was just smiling. He rode a donkey and read the songbook. Let's take a look.

"You must have heard that the emperor asked me to pay the owed silver from the Ministry of Revenue. After reading the file, I found that your family also owed a lot of silver. I wonder if I can pay it back. If I am nervous, I can pay it back in batches and batches. After all, the situation in the northwest is a bit tense, so I must pay it back."

Song Zhengtian has a kind attitude and a formal tone.

We must be absolutely necessary to smile at each other and we will never tear each other easily.

"I understand what you said. Let me go back and think about it for a few days. My family has a large population and it is also very difficult. Let me go back and think of a solution."

Lord Geng looked sad.

"If it is inconvenient for money, we can also collect valuable antique calligraphy and paintings, fields, shops and houses, and will be auctioned. The money will be given to the Ministry of Revenue and will be supervised by the Emperor's Blue Peel Guard."

Song Zhengtian exchanged Zilan's two boxes of Jingxin Xiang for four Blue Peel Guards to protect him. He also protected him and pretended to be a tiger's power. He specially gave him Yang Yu and Yu Han and two close family members. With his own people, he could do his best.

Lord Geng was stunned for a moment, obviously a little surprised, frowned, and thought deeply. It seemed that the emperor was really serious, which was a little troublesome.

"Let me do this, please go back and think about it. Would you please allow me to have a while?"

“Very good.”

Song Zhengtian didn't expect to make it understand in one go. It doesn't matter, it's okay if you don't pay it back, it's okay if others are willing to pay it back. I'm happier if you don't pay it back, just wait to pull your braids.

The two of them were in an official voice and pretended to be polite. After drinking a cup of tea, Lord Geng left the Ministry of Revenue. When he came out, he looked serious and worried.

The Ministry of Revenue has not made any noise for more than half a month, but the officials of the Ministry of Revenue themselves also owed debts. According to Song Zhengtian's advice, they had already paid the owed silver at the first time.

Song Zhengtian knew that everyone was watching and did not dare to pay the money first, for fear of being excluded by his colleagues.

Unexpectedly, the Qu family was the first to pay back the money with a big swagger, and the head of the family came with someone with a box.

The people from the Ministry of Revenue quickly welcomed the people in and handed over the money in person. Not only gold and silver, but also valuable things such as antique calligraphy and paintings. It would lose the price when sent to the pawn shop. So Zilan proposed an idea to auction it. The price could be higher. They all belong to the Ministry of Revenue. No matter how much the auction was, it would be converted into a owed silver.

This idea is quite reasonable, so that you can pay off a lot of money.

The Qu family has been neglected for their owed money. In fact, his family is not without capable men and talents, but the emperor is angry that his family will not do anything. If he doesn't pay back the money he owe, he won't give you a chance.

After quietly mentioning the Yang family behind the scenes and Song Zhengtian personally interviewed, the Qu family realized that it was impossible to pay the debt. At this time, the general's courageous behavior was very timely.

Since I can't lose it, why are you trying to make trouble? I took all the cash and antique calligraphy and paintings in my family. Some of them were dowry by my wife and daughter-in-law. All the valuables were brought. After discussing with the clan, I returned them all at once.

And we must be the first to stand up and respond, hoping to get a little favor from the emperor at the last moment and leave some opportunities for our children and grandchildren.

At this time, the Qu family was no longer afraid of offending anyone. The emperor did not give him the opportunity and did not have to offend others. His family had been squeezed out of the ranks of first-class families. If he didn't work hard, he would be finished.

The Qu family has a solemn attitude and almost sold their daughter-in-law to bring all their dowry, which shows that.

The official of the Ministry of Revenue counted the gold and silver, registered antiques and calligraphy and paintings, and explained to Lord Qu, "Mr. Qu, these things must be sealed in the Ministry of Revenue, and then take time to send them to the Song family's Xianglou auction. The silver earned from the auction can be paid for the national treasury, and the fire paint will be sealed. If something happened in the Ministry of Revenue, our Ministry of Revenue will be fully responsible."

This is a constraint, antiques can be faked, so Zilan proposed to add this article so that officials from the Ministry of Revenue will supervise each other and take responsibility together, so they will not dare to do anything randomly.

"As long as you decide, do I need to be present in the auction?"

"It's OK. You can go and watch the fun. If you hand over the things to us, we will take responsibility. If you lose them, we will lose them. If you lose them, it has nothing to do with you. If you don't have enough, you can continue to make up for the money."

"Go ahead, feel happy, draw a picture."

When Lord Qu heard it was very reasonable, he signed and copied it neatly.

"Okay, let's live together."

"Thank you."

Lord Qu left after holding his fists.

Immediately afterwards, the relatives of the Qu family came to pay back the money, which was also a discussion behind the scenes. The Qu family was the first to come forward, and relatives and friends would come together if they were willing to follow. Since it was the emperor's intention, they had to cooperate, and their arms could not twist their thighs.

Some people started out with much easier. Song Zhengtian and the officials of the Ministry of Revenue quickly went to make an appointment with the chief manager of Xianglou, and gave them time to auction these antique calligraphy and paintings, so they could pay back the money and go to work.

Zilan secretly told relatives and friends who do not owe debts to pay attention to this matter. If you are willing, can you buy some things home and keep them at the bottom of the box?

She herself planned to take a look and buy some antiques for her family and brother to go home. This is also the foundation. She can use it as a money to mortgage it at critical moments.
