Six hundred and fiftieth chapters big exchange blood
These servants all froze. In their minds, the worst result of this incident was that the whole family would be sold. They even thought of countermeasures. If the master insisted on selling their whole family, the money they had swallowed before
You can't take it out at all, just bite it until it's all spent, and then take it away.
When they arrive in a new place, they will find ways to redeem themselves for the whole family and live a new life with their property.
Who knew that Su Yueling had no intention of selling them or beating them, but she just wanted to keep them and make them work generation after generation until all the money she owed was paid back.
Thinking of that future, they suddenly felt that their eyes were darkened and their lives were completely hopeless.
In this case, Hong Fu and others had no other choice but to spit out what they had swallowed. It was just that a lot of the money they embezzled had been spent, so what they had in their hands was directly calculated according to the market price.
In the end, several families still owed money, and the one who owed the most was Sha Ming, who owed more than a thousand taels. When Grandma Zheng asked about it, she found out that Sha Ming had not told his wife and daughter about the corruption, but instead told them about it.
A sum of money was spent on the beautiful oiran from Tianxiang Tower.
After Su Yueling found out, she couldn't help but think of some modern men who spend a lot of money on female anchors but are stingy with their wives and families.
hehe.
She asked people to go to Tianxiang Tower to check whether this was indeed the case. After it was confirmed that Sha Ming's wife and daughter were kept in the dark, Sha Ming's wife and daughter did not need to pay back the money, and Sha Ming went to Zhuangzi alone.
Go ahead and pick the goose feathers.
After dealing with this group of people, the atmosphere in the princess mansion was also cleared up. The several masters in the mansion were not difficult to serve. Over time, everyone became a little lax. It was not just people like Hong Fu who were ready to make moves, but they didn't have any
Just enough rights.
Now seeing that the master's method of punishment without beating or scolding can make people lose hope for generations, everyone has become well-behaved.
Su Yueling took half of the money she got back and sent it to the Salesian Home to buy more candies, pens, ink, paper and inkstones for the children there.
On the other side, Yuan Baoshu also selected a new batch of purchases.
She looked at the happy newcomer and said, "I will personally review this account every year from now on. If it doesn't work well, then I will replace it."
She also knows that if the water is clear, there will be no fish. If you are greedy a little, that's fine. If you are greedy so much, it is just seeking death.
When Su Yueling entered the palace, she mentioned this matter to the Queen Mother and others.
The Queen Mother said: "We should give them a beating from time to time, lest they treat their master as a fool."
Then she turned to ask Nanny Shi, "How much do the eggs in our palace cost?"
Grandma Shi went to look at the account books immediately. When she came back, her face didn't look good.
The eggs the Queen Mother ate cost two taels of silver each.
When the head chamberlain was called over, he defended himself: "The eggs your empress ate are not ordinary eggs."
Su Yueling asked: "Isn't it true that what I drank was fairy dew?" The purchasing power of two taels of silver is still quite large, enough for ordinary people to spend a month on a family.
The eggs she eats now are all raised in the mountains, she drinks from mountain springs, and eats bugs and grass seeds. The eggs don't have any earthy smell. But even these eggs will not be sold so expensively.
The head chamberlain said: "The eggs that I eat are all fed with ginseng. These eggs are much more nutritious than ordinary eggs, so they are expensive."
Isn’t this Ginseng Chicken?
Su Yueling had eaten it in modern times, but she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it, it was just the IQ tax. Besides, she didn't think they really used ginseng to feed chickens, it was just a coincidence.
She complained: "I think next time you might as well find someone to play the piano for these chickens and use music to relax them. Maybe they can lay better eggs in this relaxed state. When the time comes, they will be able to lay better eggs."
Eggs are worth ten taels of silver each."
The Queen Mother frowned and said, "The imperial doctor didn't say that I need to take supplements. Who told you to just give me supplements?"
She usually gets angry easily if she drinks too much ginseng.
"No wonder I had a nosebleed yesterday."
In fact, the reason why the Queen Mother had a nosebleed was purely because the weather had been cold these days and the fire dragon in the house was a little too hot. It had nothing to do with the ginseng chicken. But who happened to have the ginseng chicken incident, so it became a crime
Already.
As soon as these words came out, the head chamberlain's face turned pale and he immediately kowtowed and confessed.
Naturally, Granny Shi would not let him continue to kowtow here and hinder the Queen Mother's eyes. With a look, the steward was taken away.
When the news reached the ears of the emperor, the emperor's expression was not very good, so he ordered all the palace account books to be sent to the queen. The general managers of the internal affairs office were temporarily locked in the room.
Su Yueling:......
Well, if there is a big change in the Internal Affairs Office, it will definitely not be her fault!
The only thing to blame is that these people are too greedy!
After the news in the palace spread, many nobles who got wind of it also sent their confidants to investigate the prices in the capital market and check their own account books.
Boy, this price difference makes their blood pressure rise.
As a result, many families in the capital began to rectify their affairs, and some even ransacked their slaves' homes.
The first person who ransacked the house was Mrs. Yang, a friend of Su Yueling.
The Yang family comes from a general family, and Mrs. Yang has always had a straightforward temper and is too lazy to engage in nonsense.
"Thanks to you, I'm not so strapped for money recently."
The Yang family was not short of money, but they couldn't bear the thought that Mrs. Yang had to prepare for her son's marriage and at the same time prepare a dowry for her little girl. The two things collided and she wished she could break one tael of silver into two taels of silver. She originally wanted to save money this year.
At first, after knowing what happened in the palace, he went to check on his servants.
This investigation almost made her so angry that she had a stroke. Among them, the housekeeper who was the most corrupt had bought tens of thousands of acres of farmland for his family. How could he bear this?
Mrs. Yang directly led the people to rob these servants who had gone too far. The land and cash were worth more than 200,000 taels.
She felt that Su Yueling had some of the credit for this, so she even prepared a generous gift for her this time.
Not only Mrs. Yang, but also acquaintances prepared gifts for Su Yueling.
After this wave, Su Yueling actually made a small fortune.
However, Aunt Zheng was a little worried. Although her master was unintentional, he also offended many officials from the Internal Affairs Office.
Su Yueling didn't care about this, "If I get to this position and I still have to look at their faces, then my life will be too frustrating."
"The source of this matter is that they are too greedy."
She had heard that the life of the deputy head of the Internal Affairs Office was more luxurious than that of the mistress and his wife in the palace. The property confiscated by the Royal Forest Army from their house amounted to more than one million taels. The wealth of many princes' mansions was not as good as theirs.
Su Yueling did not trust the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who had their homes ransacked or had their hats removed. Instead, she concentrated on investigating the matter of Dong Sanniang.
Qu Chengzhou's fabricated identity for his adopted daughter seemed impeccable on the surface, but he couldn't resist the many forces in Su Yueling's hands. Dong Sanniang... To be precise, Qu Lin's little information was delivered to Su Yueling's hands.
Su Yueling looked at the message above and said, "It turns out to be the Qu family."
Did the Qu family think of another way to get close to her after being rejected by her?
She looked at it and saw that the Qu family held two portions of Chi Yan Yan Yin in their hands, but their family had more money because of the private sale of private salt. He was able to get the salt Yin because more than ten years ago,
He gave his twin daughters to the then Salt Censor.
Su Yueling continued to give the order, "Investigate whether the Qu family has bullied men and dominated women in recent years."
On the other side, Baoshu also went out to pick up jewelry according to Su Yueling's instructions. During this trip, she met the White Lotus Sect arranged by the Qu family.
