Chapter 126 Su Ruhong (1)
Originally, Hong Antong wanted to select a group of highly skilled, smart and capable congregants from Shenlong Island to serve as servants and maidservants in Hong Tianxiao's mansion, but Hong Tianxiao disagreed for two reasons; The servants and maids in the mansion are all martial arts masters, so there is no guarantee that they will not arouse Kangxi's suspicion; second, once the time is right in the future, they will all withdraw from Beijing. It is inconvenient if there are too many people in the mansion. Naturally, a wise emperor like Kangxi would not make things difficult for them.

"Hehe, third brother, it's not that big brother said you, even if you have some silver, you can't spend it randomly. Now there are maids and servants who don't need money. Why don't you use it? Instead, you have to spend money to buy it. The Qing Dynasty just ruled the whole country. The war has just ended, the population loss is huge, and the price in the human market is very high. A high-end maid with a handsome appearance and neat hands and feet costs almost tens of taels of silver. It's thousands of taels of silver." Suo'etu blinked, and Mimi smiled.

According to the size of Hong Tianxiao's mansion, and the fact that it was reused by Kangxi, and the future will rise, there should be at least 200 maids, wives, and servants in the mansion. Even if each person is 20 taels, it will cost about 5000 taels of silver. What's more, the mansions of high-ranking officials and nobles generally have wives, fewer servants, and more maids.

"Then, brother means..." Although Hong Tianxiao is extremely smart, he has just experienced the officialdom after all. Compared with the old fritters in the officialdom like Suo'etu, he is naturally much younger at present.

"Third brother, what are you and my brother doing here today?" Suo'etu didn't say it directly, but started to make a detour.

"Naturally, the Suksaha mansion was raided." Hong Tianxiao became more and more confused about what Suo'etu meant. Old tricksters like Suo'etu and Prince Kang should learn a lot.

"Come on, third brother, think about it, is it possible that the Suksaha mansion only has these silver and jewels?" Suo'etu chuckled, rolled his small eyeballs, and rubbed them with his hands.

"Big brother means..." No matter how stupid Hong Tianxiao was, he understood Suo'etu's meaning.

"Hehe, that's right, that's exactly what Eldest Brother means. Old man Sukesaha can be regarded as the founding hero of the Qing Dynasty, with a very large branch, not to mention that there are as many as 300 servants in the mansion, and there are as many as a hundred relatives in his mansion. It's hard to guarantee that few of them can fall into the eyes of the third brother. As far as the eldest brother knows, this Sukesaha has a daughter named Su Ruhong, but I am the number one beauty in the Qing Dynasty, Oboi has long coveted her beauty. I once proposed marriage to Suksaha, and wanted to ask Su Ruhong to be the No. 13 concubine, but was flatly rejected by Suksaha. Speaking of Oboi and Suksaha's stalemate, this woman also played a part in it. Hahahaha. Right now, all these servants are being held in Sukesaha’s backyard, and after our house raid is over, these people will all be used as official slaves.” Suo’etu said with a smile, “Third brother, you may still I don’t know. After Sukesaha was killed, Oboi went to the emperor several times and asked for an order to raid his home, but the emperor didn’t allow it. The third brother is a hero, so this kind of beauty in the world can only belong to the third brother. Concubine or something."

"Hehe, brother was joking." Hong Tianxiao was not a lustful person, but hearing Suo Etu boast that Su Ruhong was rare in the world and the only one on earth, he couldn't help but secretly curious.
