091 [Jane is in the heart of the emperor, turn around and forget]
Back at the hotel, Wang Yuan called Jin Lei to his room and poured out the treasures in the jar in front of him.
The upper layer is full of silver ingots, but the lower layer is actually gold cakes!
Five taels per ingot of silver makes up sixteen ingots, which is ninety taels.
Five taels of gold cake is also eight pieces, which is forty taels of gold.
Before the large influx of silver from America, silver was still very valuable. At Zhu Yuanzhang's time, one tael of gold was equal to four taels of silver (official price).
By the Zhengde Dynasty, one tael of gold could be exchanged for about five or six taels of silver. The real depreciation of silver occurred in the late Jiajing period, when the price ratio of gold and silver was as high as 1:8, and later even 1:10.
In addition to gold and silver, there is also a jade gold hairpin, a pair of gold bracelets, and a jade ring in the jar.
In total, it is worth about three to four hundred taels of silver.
Wang Yuan was quite happy, but also a little disappointed.
Because according to Zhang Yun's account, these scammers used 300 taels of silver to act, so they should have richer wealth. Now imagine that those 300 taels were probably props, fake silver such as iron-coated silver or lead-coated silver.
Wang Yuan picked out the gold cakes and silver ingots, pushed them to Jin Lei and said, "I want all the jewelry, and you will get half of the gold and silver."
"No, just take it." Jin Lei's family has plenty of money, and he doesn't care about hundreds of miles of silver.
Wang Yuan thought for a while and said: "Well, I will contribute more today. I will divide the gold and silver 50%, and you will take 30%. The remaining 20% will be put aside the silver taels found for Zhang Yun, and the rest will be shared together."
Actor."
"Okay." Jin Lei didn't care.
Zhang Yun was defrauded of eight taels of silver, so just give him ten taels.
The two thugs Zhang Mingyuan and Zhu Lun contributed relatively much, and each received fifteen taels of silver. Zhou Chong, Jin Lei and Zou Mu's bookboys each received six taels of silver, which was enough to finish the distribution.
Wang Yuan received gold and silver worth one hundred and forty-five taels of silver, as well as a gold hairpin, a gold bracelet, and a jade ring.
Alas, Mr. Chu Liu is still too poor. He has been cheating for so many years and only has a few hundred pieces of silver.
Wang Yuan called everyone over and divided the spoils together in person, even making it clear that he had taken 50%.
No one had any objections, but they felt that Wang Yuan was particularly righteous. He and Jin Lei were the masters, so they took away all the belongings and randomly distributed some to the servants, which was a matter of course.
Wang Yuan actually rewarded people according to their merits and distributed them according to proportion. He was called a benevolent and righteous hero in the world. I don't know how many heroes were willing to sacrifice their lives for him.
Zhang Mingyuan and Zhu Lun both clasped their fists in greeting. If they had not surrendered to the Jin family a long time ago, they would have said at this moment: "Brother Wang is generous. If there is an assignment from now on, I will go through fire and water, even if I die!"
Zhang Yun was also called to get money. This guy not only recovered his losses, but also earned two taels of information fees. In addition, during the Yunnan Provincial Examination, Wang Yuan helped him rent Qingyun Street. Zhang Yun was so grateful to Wang Yuan that he directly
Become a loyal supporter of Wang Erlang.
"Brother Zou, you won't be unhappy if I don't give you any money this time, right?" Wang Yuan asked with a smile.
"I have no contribution, so why should I share the money?" Zou Mu also didn't care about the few taels of silver.
The top aristocratic families in Guiyang include the Yi family, the Yue family and the Zhan family. Although the Zou family is not ranked high, they are still very wealthy. To Zou Mu, the amount of money is only a small amount.
Not to mention drinking that night, Wang Yuan treated him to a guest, which was regarded as a celebration.
At night, Jin Lei had just fallen asleep when he was suddenly shaken awake by someone who covered his mouth so that he could not make a sound even if he wanted to scream.
"Jinyiwei is doing business, don't shout." Someone said in the darkness.
"Uh huh." Jin Lei nodded repeatedly.
The man removed his hand, took out the fire stick and lit the candle. Sure enough, he was dressed in a royal robe.
Jin Lei was so frightened that he asked in shock: "Your Excellency, are you chasing the thief?"
The man explained his purpose: "Your heroic servant has been taken a liking to by our superiors, and they plan to recruit him to serve as a member of the Royal Guards. This is a once-in-a-lifetime good thing. Take out this person's slave registration document quickly. If you don't have it with you,
You can write a handwritten letter on your body as evidence."
"You mean Wang Yuan?" Jin Lei asked.
The man replied: "I just used a door panel to chase the boy who was beaten by the crowd."
Jin Lei suddenly lost his fear and said with a smile: "That's not my servant. That's Wang Yuan of Jieyuan of Guizhou. He has the reputation of being a civil servant. I'm afraid he is not suitable to serve as a member of the Jinyi Guard."
"Jie Yuan?" the man asked in surprise.
Jin Lei said with a proud tone: "Brother Wang is the Jieyuan of Guizhou last year, and I am the Jieyuan of Yunnan last year."
The man asked suspiciously: "Is this true?"
Jin Lei smiled and said, "I'll show you the voucher."
After a while, Jin Lei found his admission ticket. The man suddenly had a complicated expression, clasped his fists and said, "Excuse me!"
…
Since Liu Jin was cut to pieces by a thousand cuts, Zhu Houzhao no longer lives in the Leopard House, and only goes out to play for a few days every now and then.
A country is easy to change, but a person's temperament is hard to change.
Only a few months had passed before Zhu Houzhao started to return to his old ways and moved his living and office to Xiyuan.
When he came back from outside the city yesterday, Zhu Houzhao went directly to the Leopard Room, where he drank and had fun while watching his godsons fight for fun. He was so drunk that Zhu Houzhao went into battle in person, pretending to be a general, and ordered dozens of godsons to fight.
Arrange in battle formation.
Qian Ning, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, played the role of a little Mongolian prince, leading a group of guards and eunuchs to fight in the Leopard Room with the army led by Zhu Houzhao.
The two sides fought fiercely, and in the end, General Zhu naturally won a complete victory.
General Zhu was even more happy, and took Qian Ning to continue drinking, and fell asleep on the same bed in a daze.
Zhu Houzhao didn't pay attention to these things. As long as he liked the brave young man, it was common to have arms around each other. Eating and sleeping together were also imitating the ancients. Didn't Liu Bei often sleep with Guan and Zhang?
In the early morning, Qian Ning yawned and got up without disturbing the emperor's father beside him.
A eunuch's godson came in and muttered something in a low voice.
Qian Ning rubbed his swollen forehead and said, "What the hell, is Jieyuan that good at fighting now?"
"What's the matter?" Zhu Houzhao said drowsily while lying on the bed.
Qian Ning immediately bowed over, stood beside the bed and said: "Your Majesty, the brave young man yesterday was Jieyuan from Guizhou last year. And Mr. Jin was Jieyuan from Yunnan last year. The two of them entered the hospital together.
I went to Beijing to take the exam."
Zhu Houzhao was not yet awake, but when he heard this, he immediately became energetic. He sat up and said, "It's Jieyuan from Yunnan and Guizhou provinces?"
"That's true," Qian Ning said with a wry smile, "The emperor is afraid that he won't be able to recruit him into the Imperial Guard. If he is just an ordinary person, Jieyuan will definitely be protected by a big turban."
"Oh, then we have to give up."
Zhu Houzhao was not an idiot. He could think with his knees that if Jie Yuan was forced into Jinyiwei, even the cabinet bosses would not agree if he did not say that the ministers would be upset.
This has touched the bottom line of civil servants!
Soon, Zhu Houzhao became happy again and laughed to himself: "It's interesting. Scholars who can pass the Jie Yuan exam can fight so well. By the way, why did they conflict with the city sticks?"
Qian Ning replied: "The time is too short and I haven't found out clearly yet."
"Let's find out more," Zhu Houzhao asked, "What is the name of Jie Yuan who hit people with the door panel?"
Qian Ning reported: "Wang Yuan, courtesy name Ruoxu, is a student member of the Xuanwei Department in Guizhou."
Jinyiwei was very efficient in his work. Two days later, all the detailed information about Wang Yuan and Jin Lei was placed in front of Zhu Houzhao.
Including several poems written by Wang Yuan, because they had been spread to the capital long ago, they were also collected and presented together.
Zhu Houzhao suddenly got up and took a few casual glances, then went back to drinking and having fun, not paying attention to Wang Yuan at all.
After Jin Lei communicated with Wang Yuan, Wang Yuan was also confused. How could Jin Yiwei want to recruit him for no reason? Is it just because he is good at fighting?
There was no time for him to think too much because the exam date had arrived.
