Chapter 164 Why is this family hiding so much money!

The seals of the two jars were too tight, and everyone scraped them for a long time, but they still haven't scraped them clean.

Qi Zheng was a little annoyed, and directly cursed: "Use fire!"

The candle will melt if it is preheated, this is the method that Qi Zheng just thought of.

Qi Dafu and the others rushed to fetch a few candles, and along the edge of the crock, melted the wax seal on the surface little by little.

On the other hand, Quan Li was so shocked that he let out another loud cry.

Everyone hurriedly looked over, but when they saw it, everyone was stunned.

The silver ingots on that layer just now were enough to shock them, but now there is a layer of gold ingots under the box.

Although they were not placed as close together as the silver ingots, they were all golden enough to dazzle everyone.

"Father, this, this..."

Qi Dafu opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

It’s too shocking!

Not to mention this life, I'm afraid he won't make so much money in his next life.

Qi Zheng's heart was also beating wildly.

"Old, fourth, you, you move the box over there first, over there!"

Qi Zheng's voice was trembling, and he forced himself to look away, not to look at the silver and golden picture.

Quanquanjin came back to his senses, and hurriedly grabbed Quanli, who was beside him. The two brothers moved the box to a place a little further away, and then put the original two layers of silver ingots on it again, and closed the lid, for fear of Then he was dazzled by the silver inside.

Now everyone is silent, and they all maintain the actions just now.

Not to mention the burnt wax seal, even breathing became very abnormal.

Yi dreamed that everyone's condition was not right, fearing that something might go wrong, she hurriedly reminded: "Father, hurry up and see what's in the jar, we're sure we can make the next step."

This sound not only reminded Qi Zheng, but also reminded others.

It is a lie to say that I am not moved, that I am not ecstatic.

Fortunately, the brothers of the Qi family were well educated since they were young, so they didn't appear to be open to money, or even in a state of madness.

It's just that although everyone is still busy with the things in hand, their eyes always glance at the box not far away from time to time.

During the period, someone burned his hand with wax oil, and he hissed without saying a word.

Finally, the jar was opened.

You can see the full copper coins inside without candlelight.

"Mom! What did this family do before, why so much money?"

Qi Sangui's legs went limp, and he fell directly to the ground.

Qi Sangui is usually the one who talks the least, but now he is quite frightened, especially the others.

Even Yi Meng couldn't help swallowing.

When she saw the silver ingots and gold ingots, she was shocked, surprised, and also ecstatic, but now seeing the full amount of copper coins, she was still very irritated.

Such a large jar of copper coins, if I really had to take them out, I'm afraid there would be a lot of them.

"Du, all calm down, calm down."

While Qi Zheng was talking, he covered his face with his hands, rubbed it vigorously several times, and then said, "We can't keep all the money."

"Ah? Dad, what do you mean by that?"

Quan Li was the first to express his incomprehension.

Didn't you just say that it belongs to your own family?
Qi Zheng glared at him, then looked at the other people present.

After a long time, he sighed and said, "Do you still remember why that family was exiled? How many of those officials have never bullied us people?"

"Although the former owner of this yard is a distant relative, they will be implicated, which means that the relationship is not far away. Looking at these things, I am afraid that they have oppressed the poor here."

"Although our old Qi's family is not a great cause, and there is no one who is a high-ranking official, we have a conscience."

"I don't know how many people's hard-earned money this money is. If we lose all of it, how is it different from those bad officials who bully the poor?"

Qi Zheng's voice is not loud, and his speech speed is not fast, but every word he utters is like a heavy hammer, hammering muffledly on everyone's heart.

Having been poor people for so many years, I don't know how much blood and sweat was squeezed out by the government. Now hearing what my father said, everyone fell into deep thought.

After a while, Quan Licai asked weakly: "Father, are you going to hand over all the money to the government?"

"Why do you have to hand it over to the government?"

Qi Zheng asked back: "This is what our Qi family discovered, and that is our Qi family's money! What I mean is that we can't spend all of this money with peace of mind!"

"If you don't feel at ease, what are you doing? Flowers that are worried?"

Quan Li couldn't control his mouth, and blurted it out.

Now Qi Zheng was furious, and was about to curse, but Yi Meng said: "How about we divide the money into two parts, one part belongs to our own family. As for the rest, let's keep it for later." In the future, if you have the conditions and opportunities, do something that can help others. Father, do you mean that?"

"Well, that's what it means."

Qi Zheng nodded.

Look, you have to be a educated person like the fourth daughter-in-law, who can speak clearly.

Thinking of this, Qi Zheng glanced at Quan Li: "When we build the new village, we will build a school, whatever you want to do, teach the children well, and learn more about how to behave as a human being."

After a pause, Qi Zheng said again: "From the age of six to 20, let's all go to school!"

The youngest son is seventeen this year, and he can still study for a year or two after entering school, which is better than jumping around like a monkey like he is now.

When the others heard this, they all agreed, but Quanli Li's eyes widened: "Father, how old are you at twenty? Why are you still studying? I think it's fine to be under sixteen!"

If it is set at twenty, he must go to school.

He doesn't want it!
"What? I can't speak well?"

Qi Zheng rolled his eyes.

Quan Li shrank his neck instantly, but still didn't want to give up struggling: "Father, you can marry a wife at twenty..."

"Marrying a daughter-in-law does not delay studying! Look at those scholars who went to Beijing to rush for the exam, how many of them are young?"

Qi Zheng said angrily.

Qi Sangui who was on the side suddenly said softly: "I remember Mr. said during the enlightenment that there is no end to learning, and as long as you live, you will learn as you grow old."

"Third brother, shut up!"

Quan Quanli knew it was going to be bad as soon as he heard it.

Even the third brother said that, so the others must have no objection.

But among the kids in my generation, I am the only one under twenty!
Qi Zheng glared at Qi Quanli, and Qi Sangui boasted: "The third child is right, he will live and learn forever! That's enough, this matter is settled like this. After you go back to study, the sixth child, you will also come back Tell us about it, and let us learn from it."

In an instant, Quan Li felt that the gold and silver were all stale.

Really, what is this family doing with so much money!

Can't they just save enough money to build a house for their family?
