Chapter 74: Bankrupt overnight

At this moment, Sheng Keqing was really scared.

She did not expect that all the things the Su family sent to Sheng Luoan were registered in the register.

In other words, if she wants to default on her debt, the Su family can always ask someone from the government to settle the matter!

Thinking of this, Sheng Keqing looked at Sheng Luoan, his eyes full of hatred.

Seeing this, Sheng Luoan shrugged innocently, "Sister, what are you looking at me for? And you still look at me like this, as if I owe you how much money you owe, and you don't have to pay for those things, right?

Dad, why are you so nervous?"

As soon as Sheng Luoan finished speaking, Su Yuanqing also raised his head and said unhurriedly: "Miss Shanda, those things have been registered by the yamen's specialized personnel, so don't worry, our Su family will take this opportunity to trick you!"

Then, under Sheng Keqing's surprised gaze, Su Yuanqing added another sentence.

"We happened to keep these lists in Jizhou Villa. When I came here today, I also brought the things and asked my uncle to take a look!"

After finishing speaking, Su Yuanqing handed the booklet in his hand to Sheng Hongbo.

But the latter just glanced at it lightly, and then said: "That's all, if there is anything interesting, you can just read it."

Until now, Sheng Hongbo still looked disapproving, and did not notice at all that behind him, Liu Rumei and Sheng Keqing's faces were so dark that they could draw ink.

Su Yuanqing stopped persuading, and immediately opened the booklet and said slowly: "Then I will give you a broad idea of ​​the high value ones. I won't read out the cloth, clothes, etc., so as not to ruin the Su Sheng family.

of affection!”

"In that case, let's just read it." Sheng Hongbo stopped.

Hearing this, Su Yuanqing read out the things sent by the Su family according to the timeline, "When my aunt just passed away, the Su family sent a pair of warm jade to sister Luo An, worth one thousand taels!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sheng Hongbo stopped drinking tea and suddenly raised his head, his eyes widening.

At this time, as long as you observe a little, you can notice that Sheng Hongbo's hand holding the tea cup is trembling slightly.

Sheng Luoan glanced at it, with a sarcastic smile on his lips.

It’s only a thousand taels, and your hands are shaking like this. Are you going to faint again next?

Su Yuanqing did not notice Sheng Hongbo's strangeness, but turned his gaze to Sheng Keqing, "When we sent this pair of warm jade, Miss Keqing played with it in her hands, so you must have some impressions."

The latter's body froze when he was asked, but he still nodded bravely.

"Although it happened a long time ago, I still have some impression that there is indeed a pair of warm jade."

"Okay." Su Yuanqing nodded, then looked at Su Yuanluo, "Third brother, please record it, a pair of warm jade is worth one thousand taels!"

"Okay, big brother!"

Su Yuanluo responded crisply, then took out the booklet he carried with him and recorded it stroke by stroke.

"Also, on the Lantern Festival of the year when my aunt passed away, we sent a set of white jade headdresses worth five hundred taels. Third brother, please record it."

As soon as Su Yuanqing finished speaking, Sheng Hongbo's hands shook even more seriously, and his eyes almost popped out.

"I won't mention the time next. Anyway, there is a record at the Yamen. Miss Sheng Keqing took it with her own hands, so she will not forget it."

"A pair of swallows is worth one hundred taels..."

Sheng Hongbo was shocked again when he heard one hundred taels.

Before Su Yuanqing could finish speaking, he interrupted directly: "Why are swallows so expensive? Golden swiftlets are not that expensive, right?"

Su Yuanqing smiled faintly and added slowly, "Uncle, I haven't finished yet. They are a pair of golden swallows sculptured in pure gold, worth one hundred taels of gold."

"One hundred taels of gold!"

Sheng Hongbo couldn't sit still anymore, and the muscles on his face kept shaking.

But Su Yuanqing didn't intend to give up there, and continued to open the book and read on.

"Ten night pearls are worth seven hundred taels!"

"A bottle of Yuji Pills, a bottle of Ningxiang Pills, and a bottle of Huixin Pills are worth... priceless!"

"A pair of Penglai jadeite is worth one thousand taels!"

"Ten pieces of Liu Yanqi Luobu silk, worth two hundred taels!"

"Persia sent a box of luozida as tribute to the palace. It is a priceless treasure and of immeasurable value!"

"A Burmese sari is inlaid with gold, worth five hundred taels!"

"A Northeastern Cloud Marten cloak, worth four hundred taels..."

"A pair of cloud and rain corals..."

Su Yuanqing read them one by one. By the time he finished reading everything in the booklet, half an hour had passed.

At this time, Sheng Hongbo's forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat.

"Is that all...that's all?" Sheng Hongbo asked tremblingly.

Su Yuanqing pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "Uncle, these are some treasures whose value can barely be estimated. The visual value is around 50,000 taels."

After finishing speaking, he turned to Su Yuanluo and said, "Third brother, it's about fifty thousand taels, right?"

Su Yuanluo put down his brush and said loudly: "Brother, to be exact, it is fifty-seven thousand, eight hundred and ninety taels! Of course, if you include those small items, it is estimated to be about seventy thousand taels."

"Third brother, look at what you said, why do my family members know so much about it? We won't count those small items, and we should also wipe out the fifty-seven thousand, eight hundred and ninety taels!"

Su Yuanqing looked at Sheng Hongbo and said with a smile: "Uncle, I wiped out fifty-seven thousand eight hundred taels. What do you think?"

At this time, Sheng Hongbo felt paralyzed all over and could not speak a word for a long time.

Fifty-seven thousand, eight hundred taels, that’s all the money in the Sheng family’s account books!

After spitting out so much white money, he only felt that his heart was being pulled by a hand, causing heartbreaking pain.

But then I thought about it, more than half of Su Yirou's dowry was left in the Sheng family, and I don't know how much more it was than the fifty thousand taels.

Forget it, forget it, he paid this little money!

As a result, Sheng Hongbo enthusiastically promised: "I will give you these fifty-seven thousand eight hundred taels!"

Seeing Uncle Sheng Hong being so cheerful, Liu Rumei and Sheng Keqing couldn't help but feel startled and looked at Uncle Sheng in surprise.

When they looked at each other, they could all feel the murderous look in Sheng Hongbo's eyes.

Sheng Keqing shrank her neck, not daring to look directly into Sheng Hongbo's eyes.

Sheng Luoan, who originally just wanted to watch the fun, was filled with smiles after watching this wonderful show.

Tsk tsk tsk, fifty-seven thousand eight hundred taels, that’s a lot of money. It fell into her pocket like this. It’s a pleasure to think about it!

But obviously, Su Yuanqing would not let go of the Sheng family so easily.

After receiving Sheng Hongbo's promise, the smile on his face slowly faded and his tone became a bit slower.

"Uncle, the value of the gifts sent by our Su family has almost been settled. Should we settle the matter of rent, taxes and store profits?"

After hearing this, Sheng Hongbo suddenly let out a thud.

Subconsciously asked: "What store? What tax?"

Liu Rumei and Sheng Keqing looked at each other, with a hint of panic in their eyes.

Su Yuanqing asked doubtfully: "Uncle, don't you know? The gifts our Su family gave to Luo An included not only gold, silver, jewelry, and jade utensils, but also many shops and land deeds. The money earned by these shops and the land rent

All the money was given to my sister for pocket money. Seeing that my uncle is so surprised, does it mean that he doesn't know about the land deed and the shop?"

Sheng Hongbo shook his head and looked a little more serious, "I never knew that the Su family also gave Luo An a shop and a land deed."

As he spoke, Sheng Hongbo's eyes glanced at Sheng Keqing and Liu Rumei mother and daughter, seemingly unintentionally.
