The Pan family is a large merchant in the East, and the East is close to the sea. It is the only sea trade port in the Great Zhou Dynasty. There are 24 branches in the East, commonly known as Yahang. Overseas goods were brought to the inland for trading. Because the dental shop was government-run, most merchants could get huge profits.
Dongyue almost carries the economic lifeline of the entire Great Zhou. The Pan family is a merchant in the twenty-four lines. Although it is not as wealthy and powerful as the He family, it should not be underestimated. It is the second largest dental firm in Dongyue. up.
The He family is the head of the line, the richest man in the Great Zhou.
Pan Shi is the only daughter of the Pan family. Pan Shichang, the Patriarch of the Pan family, regards this daughter as the jewel in his palm. When Pan Shi got married, it was said that she had a lot of red dowry.
This is also the reason why Mrs. Shen stayed polite and didn't look for her during the years when Mrs. Pan entered the house, even though she didn't like it.
Dowry is a woman's confidence.
After Pan died of illness, he gave one-third of the dowry to his eldest son, Shen Zikai. The rest, whether it was rare treasures or real estate, was left to Shen Ziqiao as the dowry.
Now Mrs. Shen is managing the land and shop, and other precious jewelry, calligraphy and paintings are stored in the treasury. Although the Shen family is not short of expenses after becoming a famous general, the annual income from the Pan family's land is still impressive. jealous.
Asking Mrs. Shen to give Shen Ziqiao the property that already belonged to the Shen family for free, what is the difference between cutting her flesh
Shen Ziqiao still doesn't know how much dowry she has.
Mrs. Pan has already married into the Shen family, so her things belong to the Shen family, of course, the elders decide how much the Shen family will give Shen Ziqiao a dowry.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Shen finally felt a little more comfortable.
"The Eldest Master is coming back soon, we can't let the third girl stay in the capital, so as not to play tricks when the time comes." Mrs. Shen whispered to Mother Li before resting.
"Hey." Li's mother responded briskly.
As a time traveler, Shen Ziqiao certainly didn't know how much dowry she had. She didn't even know the background of Pan's family, let alone other things.
Shen Ziqiao recently ran out of brushes, ink and rice paper because she often practiced writing. She asked Hongyu to ask the steward for new ones, but the steward said that Miss San's quota had run out, and she would have to ask for new ones next month.
There is still more than half a month left in this month.
"There are still limited quotas for these every month?" Shen Ziqiao felt baffled. She was a young lady who was born in the first place, and she was made things difficult by her servants for a few pieces of paper. What is this
Because Hongyu couldn't bring the things that Miss San needed, she was so guilty that she lowered her head and said, "There is a quota limit every month, but Miss San hasn't gone to collect it for more than half a year, so I should return all the previous ones. Come back."
"Then who is in charge?" Shen Ziqiao understood, and it was another one who treated her like a fool.
"It's Mother Feng." Hongyu replied, "It's the old lady's consort."
Shen Ziqiao didn't go to find Mother Feng right away, but inquired carefully about the Shen family's network, "So, the old lady's people are in charge of all the important responsibilities in the family, so it's not unusual to make things difficult for me. "
"Speaking of which, I usually don't have much money to spend. Don't I use the public's money for chewing? Where did the money go?" Shen Ziqiao asked.
Hongyu was stunned, "Miss San, don't you know where to put your money?"
"The servants have just come to serve you, so I don't know where your silver is hidden, sister Cuiping should know." Hongying said.
Shen Ziqiao had already searched for it by herself, "I usually don't care about money, please help me find it, maybe it's hidden in some institution."
Hongying looked at Shen Ziqiao lying on the wall and groping around, dumbfounded and didn't know what to say.
"Third Miss, look, are these?" Hongyu pointed to a lacquered box on the mahogany three-legged dressing table, which was not even locked, and there were several ingots of silver and broken silver in it.
It's too unscientific, how can you put the money indiscriminately!
Shen Ziqiao still wanted to turn the vase casually or something, a small mechanism would appear on the wall, she hugged the box awkwardly, "How much money is there?"
"Just weigh it and you'll know." Hongying said with a smile.
Shen Ziqiao thought, this little money is really not enough for what to do, if Mrs. Shen is kicked out in the future, how can she support herself
You have to think about the way forward.
"Put the money away, let's go find that mother Feng." Shen Ziqiao said.
She wanted to get back all the documents that she hadn't received before.
Mother Feng was cracking melon seeds on the steps of the warehouse. When she saw Shen Ziqiao coming, she threw all the shells in her hand on the ground, stood up and lazily patted her clothes, "Miss San is here, I don't know what to order."
Shen Ziqiao gave her a sideways glance. She was wearing an indigo blue cloth and a long cyan vest. Her face was full of flesh. She was an old woman who bullied the good and feared the evil.
"I heard that you won't let me fetch paper and ink?" Shen Ziqiao was petite and looked up at Mother Feng, but she was as imposing as her.
Mother Feng smiled and said, "Miss San took a lot of money a few days ago, there are rules..."
"Then I didn't come to get it before, why didn't you ask someone to send it for me?" Shen Ziqiao's voice was clear and loud, and she refused to back down at all, "Since I don't have an allowance for this month, you just give me everything I didn't get before. Bring it."
"Miss San, why do you need so much paper and ink?" Mother Feng asked.
Shen Ziqiao smiled, "Do I have to report to you about what I do?"
Mother Feng said with a bitter smile, "No need, I don't dare to be a slave, I'm just afraid that the old lady will ask... It's hard for a slave to explain."
"What are you explaining? Do I need to tell the old lady that I can't take my own things?" Shen Ziqiao asked coldly. The deity was too stupid before, so he was trampled on by a group of servants of the Shen family.
She doesn't want to live such an aggrieved life, enjoy what she should enjoy, and do what she should do!
Mother Feng's complexion changed, and she said in a strange voice, "Miss San's things are not with the servant."
A daughter-in-law in Curry opened the door and came out. Hearing Mama Feng's words, she looked at Shen Ziqiao in surprise. When she realized that Shen Ziqiao had noticed her, she hurriedly lowered her head and left in a hurry.
Shen Ziqiao didn't take that lady seriously, and turned her gaze back to Mama Feng with a smile, "Mama Feng, it's just some small paper and ink things, there's no need for me to show off my master's airs."
Paper and ink are more precious than silver, how can it be a small thing, so asking her is not holding the airs of the master? Mama Feng slandered in her heart, but she thought that Miss San was so unusual these days, she even dared to slap Mama Li in the face, let alone her.
"Miss San, wait a moment." Mother Feng said.
At first, I didn't believe that the third lady had changed, but I didn't expect it to be true.
In the past, even if she was short of something, she never came directly to her, so why should she be concerned that she is the old lady's consort
Shen Ziqiao is not from this place, so of course he doesn't know that paper and ink are very precious things to them, and ordinary people can't afford paper.
