Jiufujin is beautiful and charming

Chapter 189
In fact, there is more than one ten princes who played truant.

Not long after the tenth elder brother arrived, the eleventh elder brother also arrived.

Then, the elder brother, the crown prince, the third elder brother, the fourth elder brother...even the eighth elder brother also came to the ninth elder brother's house.

"Ninth younger brother, ninth younger sibling, congratulations, congratulations!"

Following the crown prince sending congratulatory gifts to Brother Nine and Yun Yi for moving to a new home, Eldest Brother and others also sent gifts one after another, such as expensive calligraphy and painting, farm real estate, all kinds of jewelry...

The value of these congratulatory gifts has exceeded tens of thousands of taels of silver.

"It's so rich!"

When Brother Nine was entertaining his brothers in front, Yun Yi took Nanny Ying and others to register these congratulatory gifts into the warehouse.

Not to mention those precious calligraphy and paintings and jewelry curiosities, the value of those farm properties alone is quite astonishing.

Yun Yi was really curious in her heart, how did these elder princes who had already left the palace and started their mansions accumulate such a rich family business?
In later generations, according to historical records, in order to clean up the money and food borrowed from the court by the courtiers and dignitaries, the fourth elder brother once forced one of his brothers to sell his belongings on the street.

And this incident became the ironclad proof that the fourth elder brother treated his brothers harshly.

Yun Yi also thought that the fourth elder brother was really a very harsh person.But today, if the housewarming gift sent by the fourth elder brother to the ninth elder brother is converted into silver, it will definitely be worth no less than 2000 taels.

What is the concept of 2000 taels?
To put it simply, the prince of the Qing Dynasty also had a salary.And their salaries are based on the rank of title.

Prince Heshuo is a first-class title, with an annual salary of 1 taels and [-] humi; for other titles, the salary will be halved for every first-class title.

The fourth elder brother is still the title of Heshuo Belle, which is the third-class title, and his annual salary is only 500 taels.

This time, the ninth elder brother gave the ninth elder brother a housewarming gift, and the fourth elder brother almost gave out a whole year's salary.

If this kind of handwriting is still called treating brothers harshly, Yun Yi doesn't know how to treat brothers preferentially.

Of course, it can't be ruled out that after the fourth elder brother became the throne, he found that the treasury was really out of money, so he had to be ruthless.And his brother, who forgot who he was, worked very hard to fight against the fourth elder brother.

However, based on the historical records of Emperor Yongzheng, this buddy who embarrassed the fourth elder brother will definitely not end well.

"This is all a debt of favor!"

Yun Yi received the gift, her expression was not very happy.

Although these are very valuable things, this thing has entered their hands, unless it is when the mountain is at the end of the river, otherwise these things can only be kept in their own hands.

"Fu Jin, why don't you look very happy with such a generous gift?"

Brother Jiu accompanied a group of brothers to eat and drink, and returned to the backyard. Seeing Yun Yi's expression, he was also a little puzzled.

Yun Yi sighed, and said: "Master, we have received such a generous gift today, and we will return it in the future. If we return the gift, these things must not be used as gifts. We don't have such a solid family background." !"

Reciprocity is a basic etiquette.

Yun Yi is now in charge of the family, so these things must be taken into consideration.

Brother Jiu smiled slightly and said, "Come on, let me show you something!"

Hearing Yun Yi's worrying words, Brother Jiu was really happy, took Yun Yi's hand, walked out of the room, and ran to the next room.

This room was designed as a study. Looking at the furnishings inside, it should be mainly for Yun Yi's use.Of course, there is also the position of Brother Nine here.

"What's in here?"

Yun Yi blinked and stared at Brother Jiu.She had come in to have a look at this study room long ago, and the layout was quite in line with Yun Yi's aesthetics.

Brother Jiu smiled slightly, walked towards a potted plant placed on a bluestone pillar by the wall, and gently rotated the potted plant.

organ!

Yun Yi looked at Brother Nine in astonishment, and then heard a crackling sound, and the bookshelves placed by the wall slowly opened, revealing the wall behind the bookshelves.

"That's it?"

Yun Yi turned her head and glanced at Brother Jiu, the bookshelf moved away, revealing a wall, what is this?
Brother Jiu blinked, raised his eyebrows at Yun Yi, and said, "Of course it's more than that!"

"Fu Jin, go and step on the stone slab against the wall, use a little force!"

"Oh!"

After listening to Brother Nine's words, Yun Yi stepped forward, and under the guidance of Brother Nine, stepped on the stone slab for fighting.And as Yun Yi's foot stepped on the stone slab, there was another clicking sound in the study.But this time, it was the bluestone slab at the door that rose up.

Brother Nine stepped forward and removed the bluestone slab, revealing a staircase leading to the ground.

"Underground secret room?!"

Seeing the passage leading to the underground, Yun Yi was really convinced.

"Master, did this underground secret room exist before? Or did you find someone to make it?"

"Of course I found someone to do it!"

Brother Nine chuckled, "The Ministry of Internal Affairs' repair of the house does not include digging the cellar. Moreover, if the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs help dig it, I dare not use it!"

Such an underground secret room must be kept secret.

And if the Ministry of Internal Affairs takes action, it must be recorded.

But brother Jiu asked someone to dig it up, that is to ensure that it will not be leaked.As for how he operated it, Yun Yi didn't ask, anyway, as long as he knew that there was an underground secret room in his home.

"Master, this underground secret room, you don't have to open it like this every time, do you? Can't one person open it?"

"Of course not!"

Brother Jiu smiled triumphantly, "Before the mechanism is fully opened, the person who moves the potted plant first cannot let go."

"As long as you let go, another mechanism will be opened."

"This one is a fake treasure chest, and there are also some things in it. It is specially used by the master to divert the attention of some thieves!"

Brother Nine is really proud.

Ordinary people would not easily discover the mechanism, but nothing can stop someone with a heart.So, when Brother Nine was designing the underground secret room, he made two preparations.

"Master, you are really cunning!"

Yun Yi never thought of this level.

If she was the one who designed the mechanism, it must be the entrance directly connected to the underground chamber.

"How can this be considered cunning? This is called planning!"

Brother Jiu waved at Yun Yi and said, "Let's go, Master will take you to see our property!"

While talking, Brother Jiu took Yun Yi's hand and walked out of the underground secret room.

The secret room in the basement is very spacious, it feels like the entire basement of the underground study has been hollowed out.

"Grandpa, how did you do it?"

From the time the house was settled until they moved in, it didn't take a month at all.But brother Jiu has completed such a huge project, which is simply unimaginable and incredible.

"Well, that's the same sentence, money can turn ghosts around!"

"As long as the money is enough, then there will always be someone who can handle this matter properly."

Brother Jiu didn't think it was a big deal at all.

"But, such a large amount of work. How could it be completed so quickly if it didn't alarm people?"

"This, Fujin, you don't know anything!"

Brother Nine laughed, "Master found a few experts who were fighting against each other, and they found some accomplices. These people are best at digging holes and things like that."

"..."

Yun Yi looked at Brother Nine in astonishment, "I mean, when you talk about fighting against each other, you don't mean to touch Captain Jin, right?"

"Yes, that's them!"

"Master, aren't you afraid that these people will come to us to steal treasures while we're not paying attention?"

Yun Yi originally thought that elder brother Jiu was very reliable in his work, but now, Yun Yi felt that elder brother Jiu was picking up sesame seeds and throwing away watermelon.

Captain Mo Jin, who are they?

Those are guys who specialize in digging people's graves, they have no sense of benevolence, righteousness or shame.As long as they can make money, there is no grave they dare not dig.

Now, they don't need to dig graves, they just need to dig through Brother Jiu's underground secret room, and they will probably be able to get rich overnight!

Brother Jiu grinned and said, "Fu Jin, do you think Master is such a stupid person?"

"The reason why I hired these people to work is that I don't want this matter to be exposed."

"After they finish their work, the Lord will deal with them!"

"what!"

Hearing Brother Jiu's understatement, Yun Yi was taken aback.

"Fu Jin, you don't sympathize with those people, do you?"

"do not know!"

Yun Yi shook her head, Yun Yi hated grave robbers very much.However, if these people were really killed, she felt that it was too much.

No way, this is really not hypocritical.

When a modern soul arrives in this time and space, even if he grows up here, many concepts are still not so easy to be assimilated by this era.

For example, respect for human life.

Once, in order to escape from the black hand of the eighth elder brother, Yun Yi also shot someone.But now, listening to Brother Jiu casually talking about how to deal with those captains Mojin, Yun Yi still felt uncomfortable.

"Fu Jin, don't think too much. The reason I'm looking for these people is because they are full of evil. If it's just to rob graves and take some of the funeral wealth of the predecessors, I won't necessarily kill them."

"These people all have lives in their hands."

"Murderers, people will always kill them!"

"Besides, the master gave him the money to work. With enough money, even if they never go back, their family members will not be in poverty."

"It is impossible to live a life of great wealth and great wealth, but it is still possible to live a peaceful life with a little wealth."

Hearing Brother Nine say this, Yun Yi was also quite shocked.

When will the prince elder brother think about others like this?Even the other party's family is taken into consideration.

"Fu Jin, don't look at me like that!"

Brother Jiu noticed Yun Yi's eyes, and quickly said, "Whatever, our child is about to be born. If you don't think about yourself, you have to accumulate some virtue for our child, right?"

"..."

Yun Yi was speechless.

There are oil passages on both sides of the underground secret room. When Brother Jiu ignites a section of the oil passage, the oil in the oil passage will burn quickly, illuminating the entire underground secret chamber.

Strangely, the oil channel was ignited without much smoke coming out.

However, Yun Yi could still feel that this underground secret room was not airtight, but that there were many air passages leading to the outside.

"Master, is there a ventilation channel in this underground secret room?"

"Of course there is!"

Brother Jiu smiled slightly, and raised his finger to point to the top of the corners around the underground secret room, "Have you seen Fujin? In those places, there are more than [-] air passages, all of which are connected to different places outside."

"As for where to connect specifically, Fujin can look for it if he has time, anyway, he's idle if he's idle!"

"..."

Yun Yi glanced at Brother Jiu, wanting to beat him up.What does it mean to be idle anyway?Is she acting very leisurely?
Not long ago, she cooperated with a group of sisters-in-law, including Da Fujin and the Crown Princess, to open a shop. As long as the shop is found and decorated, their shop can start operating.

But before that, Yun Yi had to prepare the goods to be sold.

The workshop that used to supply Fengshangfang has always been in operation, but now, it is not suitable to be exposed.Therefore, Yun Yi still needs to build another workshop and hire a new batch of workers.

"I think the concubine is very leisurely?"

"No no!"

Brother Jiu is so smart, how could he be so stupid as to give an affirmative answer.

"Master, my concubine and sister-in-law are cooperating to open a shop, but they need to build a workshop. Also, perfumes, cosmetics, and handmade soaps all need things to dress them up."

"How about we cooperate?"

Yun Yi smiled slightly and looked at Brother Jiu.

"What kind of cooperation law?"

After hearing Yun Yi's words, Brother Jiu also became interested.

"Don't worry, after we finish looking at our family background, let's talk slowly after we go up!"

Yun Yi raised the topic, but didn't continue the topic, but simply changed the topic, which made Brother Jiu feel a little unhappy.

However, Brother Jiu didn't rush to urge Yun Yi to talk about the cooperation, but started to introduce his family fortune.

There are many calligraphy and paintings, and more antiques.

As for jewelry, gold and silver, there are several boxes full of them.

"Master, where did you get this? How come there are so many?"

Yun Yi was really shocked when Brother Nine put his saved family property in front of Yun Yi bit by bit.

Compared with the treasures that elder brother Jiu hid in this underground secret room, the congratulatory gifts sent by elder brother and the prince before are nothing compared to the big witch.

Brother Nine smiled triumphantly, and said: "Doesn't Fujin think that Master wandering around the street all day is doing nothing?"

"Although I can't find a shop like Fujin that you are making so much money every day, I have excellent eyesight. As long as it is a treasure, once it falls into my eyes, there is no need to run away!"

Hearing Brother Nine say this, Yun Yi immediately thought of a word: pick up leaks.

Picking up leaks is a matter of eyesight.

Brother Nine was able to save such a large fortune by picking up leaks. If his methods were used in later generations, he would definitely be the king of leaks.

"However, I know that my master sometimes picks up the leaks because of some people's fawning. But, this is Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer!"

Every time you pick up a leak, whether it is really a leak, or someone is deliberately flattering you, brother Jiu knows the truth.

However, what he prefers is Rarely Confused!
In Jiu's opinion, if he doesn't take advantage of this kind of advantage, he is absolutely stupid.
