Volume 1 Chapter 029 The Handling of Gold

"The folk woman has seen the tall man." Meng Xia was neither arrogant nor humble.

Several other people also gave a salute to Lord Gao, Qin Jiugong and Luo Jiaquan had already been drinking tea with Lord Gao in the hall, and looking at the expressions of the three of them, they seemed to be chatting quite happily.

When the two of them saw Meng Xia come in, their eyes had a different light.

Master Gao put down the teacup in his hand and stretched out his hand to let Meng Xia sit down, "Little lady of the Meng family, you do it first, and I will tell you in detail what the Eight Sages King means." ”

"Yes, Master Xie." Meng Xia stepped aside and sat down.

"Boss Qin, you can sit too, this is your house, if you stand, how rude it is." Master Gao glanced at Meng Dong and Qin Meihua, "Everyone sit down." ”

Lord Gao looked kind, but everyone knew that it was only because of the attitude of the Eight Sages King towards Meng Xia.

"Yes, Master Xie." Qin Baolin walked over to Qin Jiugong and sat down, while Qin Meihua and Meng Dong sat next to Meng Xia.

Seeing that everyone was seated, Master Gao asked Hongfu to move a box to Meng Xia's side, and then said: "Little lady of the Meng family, there are five hundred taels of gold in that box, which is the deposit given to you by the Eight Sages King, and there is a receipt here, after you accept it, sign the note." ”

Gently bowing his head, Meng Xia responded with a smile: "My lord, the people are trustworthy adults, don't count them, I will sign for them directly." ”

Master Gao was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly waved his hand, "This is not good!" The little lady of the Meng family still ordered it in front of everyone, so that everyone would be fine. ”

"But, my lord......" Meng Xia stopped talking, his face flushed, and he was a little at a loss.

At this time, Qin Baolin got up and arched his hand towards Lord Gao, and said, "My lord, why don't you let Qin do it for you, and the village chiefs of the two villages will come to testify, I don't know what the adults think?" ”

Master Gao frowned, and then understood, "Okay, good!" Just ask Shopkeeper Qin for a favor. Looking at Meng Xia's embarrassed appearance again, the smile on the corner of the tall adult's mouth became even stronger, it turned out that this little lady had seen so much gold for the first time, and she was afraid that she would be overjoyed and count wrong.

Such a person, I don't know why the Eight Sages King would take a high look?

Qin Baolin walked over, opened the small box, and saw rows of golden gold bars lying inside, he took out one and opened it to look at the official seal and weight mark under the gold bar, and then counted the number of bars.

"My lord, five hundred taels of gold, one tael is not less."

As he spoke, he nodded at Meng Xia.

Meng Xia smiled and looked at Lord Gao, "My lord, I said that my lord is absolutely credible, how can I count this gold bar?" After speaking, she picked up the pen and ink that had been prepared on the side, and signed her name under the tall adult's receipt.

"This adult, the receipt has been signed, please give it to your lord." Meng Xia dried the ink on the paper and handed it to Hongfu with a smile.

Hongfu took the receipt, glanced at the signature on the receipt, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

This word is really trickle.

"Your Excellency." Hongfu handed the receipt to Lord Gao, who looked down for a moment, then looked at Meng Xia again, and praised: "I didn't expect the little lady of the Meng family to be so beautiful, it is really like her words." ”

"Your Excellency has won the prize." Meng Xia blessed the tall man, and looked at Qin Meihua, "This is all taught by my sister-in-law well, and the women can only write their own names." ”

"I see." Master Gao glanced at Qin Meihua, and Qin Meihua hurriedly got up and saluted him.

"Let the adults laugh."

"Jokes? How could it be, Miss Qin... Oh no, Mrs. Meng Shao is a learned person, I heard that the shopkeeper Qin hired a female master to teach Mrs. Meng Shao's knowledge. ”

Lord Gao's words made Qin Baolin vigilant.

How could he know so well? Have they already been investigated?

"My lord, it's better to meet by chance. Qin invited the chef of [Yipinxiang Restaurant] to take charge of the spoon today, hoping that the adults could enjoy their faces and drink a little wine in the cold house. We would like to thank you for your care. ”

Qin Baolin got up and stretched out his hand to make a gesture.

At this time, the butler came in and invited everyone to take their seats, saying that the banquet had been prepared.

Everyone asked Master Gao to stay and have a glass of wine.

"Hahaha!" Mr. Gao got up, laughed a few times, and said, "It's hard to be gracious, Gao is not welcome." ”

"Your Excellency, please!"

"Everyone, please!"

In this banquet, because of the presence of Mr. Gao, everyone did not dare to be presumptuous, and it was a little less lively, only on the side of the main table, Qin Baolin drove the atmosphere, and several people took turns to toast Mr. Gao.

After the banquet, Master Gao drank slightly, and Qin Baolin and Father Meng personally sent him into the carriage and prepared a generous gift.

Because most of the people had been away from home for a few days, Qin Baolin asked the housekeeper to go to the town to rent a carriage and send Qin Jiugong and Luo Jiaquan back to the village.

Except for Meng Dong, who went back to tell the Wang family the good news first, everyone else returned to the Qin family hall.

The servants came in after making tea again, Qin Baolin made a gesture, and the housekeeper led them out of the hall.

"Mengxia ......"

"Paulingo......"

Meng Xia and Qin Baolin spoke at the same time, the two were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and Meng Xia said, "Brother Baolin, you can speak first." ”

"No, you say it first." Qin Baolin shook his head.

Seeing this, Meng Xia opened the box on the side, and under the illumination of the light, the gold emitted a dazzling golden light. Meng Xia took two from it, and then closed the small box again, "Brother Baolin, I'll take one hundred taels back, and you can save the remaining four hundred taels for me." In the future, if our house is going to be used, I will come back to you to get it. ”

So many people knew that she had five hundred taels of gold at home, and they all said that her wealth would not be exposed, and now that it had been revealed, she should be careful to prevent it.

Qin Baolin's eyes lit up suddenly, and then nodded, "Okay!" However, don't bring this 100 taels of gold. I'll ask the bookkeeper to convert you into silver, so it's easy to use. ”

He was about to remind her that it was not safe to bring this gold back, but he didn't expect her to have such a plan.

Is it a trust in herself that she can keep so much gold in her own hands?

Qin Baolin's heart was a little ecstatic.

"And Brother Baolin is thoughtful, so good." Meng Xia smiled and nodded.

"Pauling, this time, thanks to you, otherwise these children would not know what to do." Father Meng diverted the topic. He was a little uncomfortable with the five hundred taels of gold that fell from the sky, for fear that something would happen to him because of his wealth.

Qin Baolin glanced at Meng Xia and said with a little panicked: "Uncle Meng, you are wrong this time. If it weren't for me, Meng Xia would definitely be able to rescue you on his own. This time, it was all thanks to Meng Xia. ”

"Brother Pauling, if it weren't for your news, I wouldn't have had a chance for this blind cat to kill the mouse, so don't push all the credit on me." Meng Xia looked at the sky outside, "Dad, it's already dark, let's buy something tomorrow morning and go home." ”

It is not safe to walk at night, and they have brought money with them.
