Sending people away is false, but sending property away is true.
It is not unusual for these officials who go to Beijing to have Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing, and there is nothing wrong with Zhou Shilang's behavior to outsiders.
Such a thing had just happened before, and he was a man who valued this lady very much. Naturally, he had to consider his wife in everything he did now.
My wife was disgraced and injured in Shangjing. It is indeed not suitable for her to appear in Shangjing again in a short period of time. The best way is to send her to Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing to rest.
Little did they know that they actually took this opportunity to give away all the valuable things in the house.
When Mrs. Zhou left the Zhou Mansion, her body was covered with silver notes. The full amount of silver notes was stuffed into her robe, which was thicker than cotton.
Fortunately, she had limited mobility and could only ride in a carriage, so she did not arouse any suspicion.
When I left the city gate, I just showed my waist badge and looked at him briefly before letting him go.
But Song Chen knew what they had done.
But she was not in a hurry, and quietly followed them to the village, using the cover of space to see their movements clearly.
Next, she just needs to wait quietly.
The three days given by Cang Xiuxuan were coming up soon, and Zhou Shilang also came to give money to Song Chen at the agreed time, but his arrogance was still a bit grand.
People carrying things almost stretched across the entire street.
Song Chen became happy as soon as he saw the scene, "Qiu An, do you see that your prince is really angry now?"
"Girl, you are teasing me again. What do you call my prince? My master is you now, but calling me my prince is more like it."
Song Chen was even more amused by her teasing, "It doesn't matter who the prince is, the important thing is that there is a good show to watch today."
This week the minister's actions were too ugly. Neither she nor Cang Xiuxuan were the kind of people who wanted to show off their face. They thought that bringing so many people to deliver things would make people see how pitiful he was.
Do you want people to criticize them verbally?
When Zhou Shilang brought these people here, it was the busiest time on the street. The passers-by were frightened by his appearance and began to talk about it.
"Are you carrying so many things as a betrothal gift? What's going on?"
Some people didn't know that this was Shilang Zhou, and they didn't connect it with the incident three days ago.
The people next to him became happy when they heard him say this, "I want to be hired? Are you kidding me? Didn't you see that there is no red silk on it? The one in front is Zhou Shilang. Have you heard about what happened three days ago? This
Shilang Zhou has offended the owner of Beauty Hall and has to pay tens of thousands of taels of silver."
"What, a minister can't defeat a merchant's boss? Did I hear wrongly?"
The man felt as if he had heard a joke. When did this merchant's status become higher than that of an official?
Another person was also enthusiastic, "This is not an ordinary merchant family, it is backed by the regent."
As soon as the words "Prince Regent" came out, everyone seemed to feel the pressure and immediately became silent.
But I still kept thinking about it over and over again, thinking that this was unreliable.
However, there are also people with more flexible minds, "Do you know that the food we eat in the entire capital city now is brought out by the regent and the owner of the Beauty Hall. Such a righteous person should not be a bully, but that
Mr. Zhou doesn’t look like a good guy.”
The man pointed at the mighty team of Zhou Shilang, "Look, this week Shilang went to compensate others. If he didn't have so much money, he should have pawned these things into money early, but he did something wrong."
Isn't this a huge battle just to let everyone in the capital see how pitiful he is?"
I have to say, this really hit the point.
"It's true what you said. You're deliberately trying to make others look bad."
All of a sudden, everything was going on in the street.
Song Chen and Qiu An looked at these things from a distance, "Tell me, how many of these things are true? How should I value them later?"
"Estimation? Miss, are you really prepared to accept these things from him?" Qiu An was shocked. According to the current situation, shouldn't he just ignore it?
Anyway, the prince will definitely come later.
Song Chen smiled and raised his eyebrows, "Take it, why don't you take it? How can you make him fall into trouble if you don't take it?"
Since he dared to give her such power, he should be prepared to be slapped in the face by her. After all... all the authentic works in his home were lying quietly in her space right now.
That's right, Song Chen once again took advantage of the convenience of space.
Previously, when Zhou Shilang sent his wife to the outskirts of Beijing, he gave away all the valuable authentic works in the house, and kept the remaining less valuable ones in the house. Song Chen didn't care whether they were valuable or not when he made his move.
If it's valuable, you just don't have to keep a penny anyway.
Yes, when Song Chen said this, Qiu An knew better.
Her girl is very playful.
At this moment, Zhou Shilang and his people had arrived in front of him, and most of the street where Song Chen drove to the beauty hall was blocked.
"Shilang Zhou, it's really lively."
Song Chen greeted him with a faint smile on his face.
There was no unnecessary expression on Zhou Shilang's face, "This was not Zhou's original intention. He really couldn't collect the compensation, so he could only bring everything at home that could be exchanged for money."
Although I say this, everyone knows exactly what it means.
Song Chen just glanced at it from a distance, "It looks like there are a lot of things. Is this chair made of yellow pear wood? There is also a table with pots and pans. I really have wronged Mr. Zhou."
This is really like bringing all the slightly valuable things from home.
"Do you remember, Mr. Zhou, how much compensation we agreed on? It must be at least 80,000 taels of silver. I think you brought so many things here and you must use them to pay for the money. Then please ask Mr. Zhou
let's start."
Every time Song Chen said a word, Zhou Shilang's face became uglier.
Her current reaction is completely wrong. In Zhou Shilang's opinion, even if she has the support of the regent, so what, but after all, she is still just a teenage girl. When she sees these things from him, her first reaction should be
Angry, then broken.
Only in this way can he achieve his goal.
But right now... something was really wrong, and she didn't seem to even have the slightest intention of getting angry.
According to his original idea, if he brought these things over, a girl of her age and pampered by such a powerful person would definitely lose her temper and smash these things, and then he could take this opportunity to follow her.
She settles the accounts, and the compensation will naturally be eliminated.
But now Song Chen's reaction...
He didn't know how to get on, as if everything he had done today was in vain.
"Open, what to start?"
"Start settling the accounts. I always have to start appraising these things when you bring them over. The appraisal must be done by yourself. Otherwise, you have something else to say. I am the most happy person to do business. Since you bring these things,
Come here, I can't let you go through this trip in vain, just calculate and see how much you can get."
readily……
Zhou Shilang is now a little afraid of this pleasure.
But when things got to this point, what else could he do?
I could only step forward and open the front box and take out a scroll, with a heartbroken look on my face.
"This is a calligraphy and painting that I have always collected. It was a famous artist from the past dynasty. If I didn't have so much money now, I would never take this out. If Miss Song knows the goods, she must know how much it is worth."
Since it was a show, Song Chen naturally did the whole set, and he took it very cooperatively, and then opened it slowly.
Seeing the above content, he frowned slightly and said, "Shilang Zhou also knows that I am not from a high family, and I really can't understand these things. Why don't you ask Shilang Zhou to give you a price directly, and I will have someone take the order."
Her current reaction made Zhou Shilang feel more relaxed.
This is the normal reaction she should have.
"It's normal for Miss Song not to understand. After all, these things can't be seen without any cultural heritage. I spent nearly 8,000 taels on this painting when I received it. Now it's at least doubled, even if it's 15,000.
A thousand taels or so."
"There is also this one. Although it is not a work by a famous artist, it is still somewhat famous. It costs one thousand taels."
"this……"
After Zhou Shilang showed the items in his box one by one, the account had reached nearly fifty thousand taels.
Song Chen looked at him intently throughout the whole process, without any intention of interrupting him.
After he finished introducing the contents of this box, Song Chen raised his lips and said, "Master Zhou is really willing to give up. This box contains more than 50,000 taels of silver, but it seems that it has nothing to do with the breeze in your sleeves that you said yourself."
It has nothing to do with Liangxiu Qingfeng, but everyone knows what it is.
Zhou Shilang tried his best to restrain himself, "These are the accumulated accumulation of my Zhou family for many years, otherwise Zhou wouldn't have these things."
Song Chen nodded matter-of-factly, "After years of hard work, it seems that your ancestors are not very honest either. They actually left you all these fakes."
After saying this, Song Chen saw Shilang Zhou's expression change drastically, but before he could speak, Song Chen continued, "Those who came to your family's ancestors never thought that your Zhou family would be like this in your generation.
He has no future and even wants to move all these things out in order to pay off his debt. Otherwise, no one would know that it is a fake."
Song Chen left one fake and the other useless, causing Zhou Shilang to almost break his own teeth.
"Miss Song can think this is a fake. Zhou doesn't think he has the ability to identify it, and Miss Song probably doesn't have it either."
The only thing he can attack now is Song Chen's birth, but he seems to have forgotten that the reason why he can say such words confidently now is entirely because his anger has overwhelmed his guilty conscience.
