Not long after, a girl brought hot water and went to the shower room at the back. She also put dried flowers into the water and let Chen Cheng take a bath.
After she finished taking a bath, she put on a set of clothes worth more than thirty taels of silver.
When she returned to the bedroom, she found a set of Cuitou noodles on the table.
"This is?" She was greatly surprised.
"Oh, this is the headdress that the master brought to you. There is also a makeup box here, and there are other jewelry in it, all of which the master brought to you."
Chen Cheng was greatly surprised when he saw the jewelry in the makeup box.
She had checked. She found out that the Weng family made 3,860 taels of silver by using her Wen Family Tea Mountain. Later, Wen Qingyun sued the Weng family and the government confiscated the 3,860 taels.
The silver was returned to Wen Qingyun, who donated one thousand eight hundred taels to the town office, sixty taels to Li Zheng and the village, and left two thousand taels for himself.
But look at the things in this room, the furniture and ornaments, not to mention anything else, just the jewelry in the makeup box on the dressing table is worth two to three thousand taels of silver.
Where did this Wen Qingyun get so much money?
Chen Cheng couldn't figure it out. From what she found, before the tea was produced in Chashan, although the Wen family was not very poor. After all, they had such a nice yard, they were definitely not rich. After all, they must have invested a lot of money in Chashan over the years.
.
Seeing Ru Yue's wealthy appearance, Chen Cheng couldn't help but be speechless: "It's not more than three thousand taels? Where did you get so much money? I heard that the Weng family——"
Ruyue Puppet waved his hand: "This money has nothing to do with the Weng family. It was earned by your sister and me."
She couldn't help but ask the Kisaragi puppet who had just come in: "Are these jewelry worth a lot of money?"
Moreover, the behavior of their family did not look like that of a wealthy family. Otherwise, Wen Jiang would not have to go hunting in the mountains to make money. However, Wen Jiang was plotted by Weng Fugui and was killed by a tiger.
Chen Cheng didn't believe it: "People say that those who sell tofu earn only bean dregs. How much money can you make from selling tofu?"
Otherwise, why do you think the government is protecting our family? Our family’s actual income comes from selling fairy tofu."
Ruyue Puppet answered naturally: "Hey, how much silver is it worth? No more than three thousand taels. My sister gave it to you. You wear it for fun first, and then we can go to the street and buy a good one."
She pointed to the tofu house: "The little silver the Weng family got from it is not enough to bribe the government. Even our tea mountain is now rented to the government at a price of three hundred taels of silver per year.
Ruyue Puppet smiled: "Sister, please don't underestimate this tofu! I got a tofu recipe by chance. The tofu made with our sauce is very delicious and is called fairy tofu.
This fairy tofu sells for twice as much as ordinary tofu in our town, but in the county town, it sells for five times as much as ordinary tofu. In Fucheng, it sells tofu products such as dried tofu and yuba, and the selling price is the same as ordinary tofu.
Ten times the price of finished products!
Our sauce is now supplied to the entire alley, and the fairy tofu made in this alley is supplied not only to our Maple Leaf Town, but to the entire county and prefecture. Now the business is also increasing.
Now your sister and I have a monthly income of one or two thousand taels of silver. So, don’t worry that your sister can’t afford you some jewelry.”
Chen Cheng felt that Wen Qingyun was showing off, but she couldn't find any evidence. She just felt sour and swollen in her heart, and felt very uncomfortable.
