Chapter 1098: Compassionate Monthly Ticket)(2/2)
The eldest brother patted him on the back and said: "Don't tell me, these are the new clothes that eldest brother asked someone to cut for me!"
Brother Jiu hurriedly slapped his mouth twice and said: "Tong Yan Wuji, Tong Yan Wuji! What a blessing, I have my niece's filial piety!"
The eldest brother said proudly: "Nowadays, the county and prince's mansions are all well managed, and they look very impressive."
Brother Ninth immediately gave a thumbs up and said: "Okay, my niece has become successful. I will give my eldest niece a golden abacus and send it to her later."
The eldest brother smiled and said: "If I really learn from your uncle's skills, then I won't have to worry about it in the future!"
Brother Ninth wanted to see you again, but the two brothers left after saying a few words.
When they were in front of the emperor, Brother Jiu talked about the current price of silk and satin, as well as the age of young women in the palace, and said: "If clothes are made of green cloth for all seasons, the money will be enough, but it is too shameful.
At that time, he wore the same clothes as the girl, but if he wanted to buy silk and satin, it would take up a lot of money. The son thought about the clothes materials piled up in the Guangshu warehouse. The earliest ones were from the Shunzhi Dynasty. Could he free up some for use?
, I broke off the silver and settled the accounts, and added it to the dowry..."
Kangxi had always been frugal and would not waste anything.
I heard that Guangchu warehouse still had clothing materials from more than 40 years ago. I couldn’t help but frown and asked, “Why has it been backlogged for so long?”
Brother Ninth has only taken over the Ministry of Internal Affairs for three years, how could he know this?
However, he took two folds and said: "Khan Ama, these are the twelfth elder brother who took people over to count them out. One is for silks and satins of various colors that are still bright, and the other is for materials that are somewhat faded. The first one is
It can still be used and is still in good condition; the rest can be moved out to buy clothes for the four seasons..."
It's better than continuing to press.
In this way, there will be fewer orders to go to Jiangnan Sanwei School next year.
Kangxi took it, looked at it, nodded, and said, "Just do as you say..."
At this point, he praised a few words and said: "Yes, the job was done carefully this time."
These clan daughters, whether they be Jueluo girls or not, are all poor members of the clan, and they will not marry into any prominent families, and will not be able to have any relationship with Brother Jiu in the future.
It is very rare that the ninth elder brother can be so considerate and find other ways to preserve everyone's dignity when there is not much dowry money.
The ninth elder brother said: "My son just talks, but the twelfth elder brother is careful and diligent. In three days, he completed the inventory of the satin library. It is not easy to get up early and wait until late..."
Having said this, he thought of the skins in Guangchu Division again and said, "Khan Ama, do you want to count the skins in the warehouse? There are quite a lot of skins put into the warehouse in recent years, so there should be a backlog."
Kangxi looked at Brother Ninth and twitched the corner of his mouth.
No wonder everyone says that Brother Jiu's hands are loose. This is really loose...
