One tael of gold is equivalent to ten taels of silver.
Ten thousand taels of gold is equivalent to one hundred thousand taels of silver.
Although there is an old saying that three years as a clean magistrate will earn you 100,000 silver coins.
But that usually refers to the prefects of wealthy places.
Zhu Wuyou had only been in Xizhou for four years. In the second year after he arrived, Xizhou began to suffer from a severe drought.
In addition, he was the prince's man, and he had to make money for the prince, so the amount of money he gave to the prince was definitely not small.
But even in this situation, Zhu Wuyou was still able to secretly hide so much gold!
This is just hidden secretly!
There is absolutely no shortage of gold, silver, and jewelry in the warehouse and accounting office of the governor's mansion.
Looking at the priceless items in this room, Zhu Wuyou's greed is simply outrageous.
After Xu San's shock, his face was filled with anger. "Your Highness, this Zhu Wuyou is truly despicable. Just based on this bill, he should be killed dozens of times."
Li Junyan glanced at the bill, his eyes dark, "Letting him die is too easy for him.
After dawn, go and investigate the specific situation in Xizhou City.
This prince wants to see how the high officials and nobles live in Xizhou City, and how the common people live as well."
"Yes, I will arrange it right away."
Xu San responded impatiently and quickened his pace to retreat.
Li Junyan looked at the bill, his expression becoming increasingly gloomy.
Sang Jueqian was also looking at the bill on the table.
She had never seen such "expensive" paper!
This piece of paper is worth ten thousand taels of gold, or five hundred gold bars.
One gold cake weighs 353 grams, and the recycling price of one gram is 650 yuan.
In terms of value, this piece of paper is RMB.
More than 100 million!
That Zhu Wuyou looks like a dog, and what he does is really inhumane.
Sang Jueqian was spitting when he suddenly heard Li Junyan's low voice.
"Qianqian."
"I am here."
Sang Jueqian responded subconsciously.
But after I said that, a question came to my mind.
"Lezhi, how did you know I was here?"
Li Junyan's eyes were filled with a smile, "I heard you gasp just now."
Hearing Li Junyan say this, Sang Jueqian smiled a little embarrassedly, "I was so surprised just now that I couldn't control myself. I hope I didn't disturb you guys talking?"
"No." Li Junyan shook his head slowly, "But it's already very late, why haven't you slept yet?"
After hearing this question, Sang Jueqian didn't know how to answer for a moment.
She couldn't say that she stayed up so late because she was "immersed in watching a TV series", right?
Before Sang Jueqian could think of how to respond, Li Junyan spoke again, "Qianqian, since you're not asleep, I also have something I want Qianqian to help me with."
Hearing Li Junyan's serious tone, Sang Jueqian quickly sat up straight, his expression becoming serious, "What's the matter? Tell me."
"Zhu Wuyou is exploiting the people's wealth. Tomorrow I will send someone with receipts to the nearby provincial capital to retrieve the gold cakes. I will then give them to you. Can you help sell them and exchange them for food and daily necessities to return to the people? Don't worry, your hard work will not be in vain—"
"Lezhi." Sang Jueqian interrupted Li Junyan directly, "Who do you think I am? Am I someone who is afraid of hard work? These are all the blood and sweat of the people. Maybe every penny is stained with blood. Do you think I would want them? I'm not short of money now!"
Li Junyan gave her so many antiques. If she just sold a few of them, she would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life.
Although Li Junyan couldn't see Sang Jueqian's expression, just by listening to Sang Jueqian's conversation, the image of Sang Jueqian's angry look appeared in his mind.
Li Junyan didn't smile, but looked apologetic.
"Qianqian, I just said the wrong thing. I shouldn't have said that."
Li Junyan said, looking at everything in the study, "Since Qianqian doesn't want the gold, when we return, I will have people move everything that can be moved out of the Governor's Mansion and give it all to Qianqian."
Zhu Wuyou was not only greedy, but also arrogant, extravagant and licentious, and knew how to enjoy himself.
Just now, I walked along the way and found that everyone in this governor's mansion was an expert.
Even the glazed tiles on the roof and the landscape stones in the yard can be sold at a good price.
After hearing Li Junyan's words, Sang Jueqian subconsciously looked at Zhu Wuyou's study.
This study is exquisite and gorgeous, dazzling and eye-catching, and it doesn't even look like a study.
But such an antique room, with the things inside being priceless, if those rich people who like antique style saw it, wouldn’t they be eager to buy it home?
Thinking of this, Sang Jueqian's eyes lit up instantly.
She knew what to sell the house she had just rented for!
Just sell furniture, antique vases, and famous calligraphy and paintings!
We are all selling antiques, so why do we have to sell them to other people's antique shops so that others can also make a profit from it?
Just open your own store and sell it yourself, and make all the money yourself!
Li Junyan waited for a long time but didn't hear Sang Jueqian's answer, and he couldn't help feeling a little worried.
"Qianqian? What's wrong with you?"
Sang Jueqian came back to his senses instantly, "I'm fine! I just thought of something. I also rented the house on the other side of the grocery store. That store is bigger, with five storefronts and two floors.
I was thinking about what to sell after renting it, but your words just now reminded me that I can sell antique jade, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings!"
"Qianqian is amazing. She figured it out so quickly!"
"It's mainly because you reminded me."
