Chapter 1152: The Romantic Girl Paired with Farming in the Republic of China (4)
Yu Yuanyuan couldn't help but stand up straight and stared at the host's room, wishing to see through it.
After a while, I saw Xu Yin walking out of the host room carrying a heavy mahogany box.
He walked to the center of the courtyard, opened it in front of everyone, showed everyone the gold and silver jewelry piled up inside, and said with a smile:
"Oh my, in order to catch a mouse, I found a hidden compartment under the wall, and there are a lot of gold and silver jewelry hidden in it! Now, let alone repairing our nunnery, even if we demolish it and rebuild it, we won't have to worry about money! Pan'er——"
"Host, Pan'er is here!" Xu Pan'er followed behind her with a smile on her face.
"Tonight, let's each add a poached egg and cook more rice porridge so that everyone will be full!"
Thanks to the fact that the aunties eat a lot of meat and fish on weekdays, even though the nuns at the bottom can't eat it, they are used to it.
No one thought there was anything wrong with eating eggs, on the contrary, everyone was very happy.
Xu Pan'er did the same, and responded happily: "Okay!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "plop" sound, and Yu Yuanyuan was so angry that she fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Yin dug out the money that they had more or less hidden from other aunts' rooms like a treasure hunter, and everyone was autistic.
The hole in the wall at the head of the bed, the cracks in the bricks under the bed, the corners of the beams, under the night incense bucket... can it be found even if it is so hidden?
Does this damn girl have a dog nose?
Xu Yin: Learn about the gold and silver jewelry detection and appraisal instrument! These 5,000 energy points are so worth it!
After gathering these belongings, including those that were found and those that were (forced) handed over by the masters and sisters, Xu Yin sat at the head seat of the meditation hall where VIP pilgrims were received, and began to count and record them in the account.
"Come and take back your own personal belongings. Remember! I am talking about the real personal belongings that you had before entering the nunnery, and were not obtained through crooked means."
Xu Yin glanced at everyone with calm and powerful eyes,
Most people have lingering fears and dare not make any small moves under her nose, so they honestly come forward to take back their preciousness.
But there were also some who wanted to fish in troubled waters and get more. For example, Sister Fang, in addition to taking back a pair of blackened silver bracelets, she also wanted to take away a string of pearl necklaces and two silver ingots, but Xu Yin held her hand down.
"Are you sure these are yours too?"
"It's...it's mine."
"Really? Isn't this pearl necklace a gift from Mr. Wu of Mihang? Aren't these two silver ingots rewarded by Boss Xiao of the Chamber of Commerce?"
"..."
Sister Fang was so frightened: "You, how do you know?"
She did these things secretly, and even Yu Yuanyuan didn't know about it. How could this new dead girl know about it?
Xu Yin gave her a toothy smile: "What do you think?"
"..."
This damn girl really deserves a beating!
Xu Yin took the ruler and rewarded her with two pieces of paper in her palm.
The two seemingly light blows caused Sister Fang's face to turn pale in pain.
As a result, no one dared to take more. They honestly took what they deserved and returned to their original position to wait for the next step.
They finally saw it clearly: the new host was extremely resourceful and very resourceful. He couldn't be beaten or resisted. Apart from listening to her arrangements, they couldn't think of a second feasible solution at the moment.
Xu Yin counted the remaining money and put it all into the public account of the nunnery. In front of everyone, the money was divided into two boxes, one box for jewelry, gold and silver ingots, and one box for the popular large foreign currency.
The scattered copper coins were packed in a separate bag.
"I personally keep the money. You don't want to wonder where I hide it. Anyway, it is in the safest and most hidden place. The account book is kept by Pan'er. Meihua, you know arithmetic. Come to me regularly every month to withdraw daily expenses.
, you will arrange for people to come out of the nunnery to purchase."
Xu Yin promoted a trousers nun named Zhao Meihua. When she was a child, she came from a good family. She learned arithmetic and memorized poems. Later, her family fell into decline. She came to Haicheng with her parents to seek refuge with relatives. She was involved in a conspiracy as soon as she got off the dock.
After a gunfight, her parents died on the spot. She was rescued back to the nunnery by Lao Zhapuni, who went out to beg for alms, and she became a member of the nunnery from then on.
But because she has a quiet and reserved personality and doesn't talk much, she is often bullied by her sisters and aunts. For example, they ask her to wash their feet. Halfway through washing, they rub her face with foot washing water, and then make fun of her for being ugly. For example, when it's time to hold the lamp, let her
She held a candle above her head to give them light. Just now, the hostess criticized her and said the tea was hot, so she was brought a pot of hot tea and ordered her to stand with the scalding tea for a stick of incense... But she never
Speak out in resistance.
Only Xu Yin could tell that this girl was suffering from severe depression. If she didn't help her, it was unimaginable what would happen.
Perhaps, in the original text, when the original wife and concubine of the commander-in-chief jointly killed him, a fire broke out in Yakushian. It was not caused by thunder but was caused by man-made fire.
Zhao Meihua didn't expect that the new host would reuse her. She met Xu Yin's encouraging eyes blankly: "I, I can't."
"You can do it. You're good at arithmetic. It's perfect to leave this matter to you. But every expense must be accounted for. At the end of each month, I will check your sub-accounts and Pan'er's general ledger. You two don't mind it.
That’s fine.”
The other trousers-wearing nuns looked at Xu Paner and Zhao Meihua with envy.
Xu Yin did not miss their looks: "Work hard, and everyone will have a chance! But I value integrity more than ability. If you are not sincere, you will not impress people. If someone does one thing on the surface but another behind the scenes, and betrays others, and alienates colleagues, don't
Blame me for being rude!"
Then he rubbed his chin and looked at the group of sisters and sisters: "You seem to be unconvinced? In this case, I will give you a chance to choose your own path: I welcome those who are willing to stay and participate in the construction of our nunnery; those who want to leave this nunnery due to unfavorable fate
I won’t stop you from pursuing your own life. I know that many of you were forced to be separated from your family back then. If you want to go home, I will give you a payment; if you don’t want to leave, just follow me.
Let’s go ahead and use our hard-working hands to build the nunnery into our real home! But I’m going to say something ugly beforehand. Anyone who steps out of the nunnery door today will never come back in the future.”
"If you choose to leave, will you really make money for us?" Sister Fang hesitated for a long time, then plucked up the courage to ask.
Xu Yin nodded: "Yes."
If the heart is not here, it is useless to force it to stay, but it will only make people's hearts discord.
There was a rustle of discussion below, and finally seven people stood up, all of them beautiful-looking sisters-in-law who were unwilling to live in poverty.
They were not going home. At this age, they were going back to earn bride price for their brothers at home. They wanted to go to the city.
They lived a happy life in the past and were unwilling to be like Xu Yun and marry a fat old man as a concubine.
But now, instead of falling into Xu Yin's hands and being forced to live the life of a nun with strict rules, it would be better to take the money and go to the city to try her luck.
Maybe a kid from a rich family covets their appearance and figure and will marry them. If the first wife doesn't expect it, the concubine is afraid that she won't have a chance?
