Dressed like a loser and went to raise a baby

Chapter 35
After Li Cheng heard what Zhang Su said about how to get rich and how much money he could get every month, he was not as excited as Sun Ming.

In this cold palace, the only one who could afford twenty silver dollars to bribe them all was Wang Jieyu, but she didn't seem to have any news worth spreading.Therefore, the noble person mentioned in this picture should not be Wang Jieyu.

However, if it wasn't Wang Jieyu, then who would it be?

If she does something outrageous in the cold palace and they don't care about it and don't report it, then he will have a hard time with his conscience.

Zhang Su nodded: "Yes, 20 taels of silver, every month."

"Of course we are willing, right?" Sun Ming raised his chin at Li Cheng who was silent.

It's just that they don't want news about that noble person to spread from the cold palace, which is not a difficult task for them.

Li Cheng looked at Zhang Su and asked, "Who is that noble man? What do you want to do in the cold palace?"

He was not dazzled by money and asked very carefully.

Zhang Su glanced at Li Cheng and saw his concerns, and said slowly: "That noble lady is the deposed Queen Leng. She just made some gadgets and asked me to sell them in the palace. She did not What harm are you doing in the cold palace?"

Although Li Cheng and Sun Ming had never met Leng Luoyue after the deposed queen, they had heard of it.During her time as queen, she did not do anything to harm the concubines, but she was not good at managing the harem. She treated the palace people very generously, but she did not make any big mistakes.The only big mistake she made was that she was Leng Tianming's daughter.She would be deposed simply because Leng Xiang, a sycophant, was overthrown by the emperor. The emperor no longer needed to treat her and treat Leng Xiang vainly and submissively.

Sun Ming and Li Cheng had heard that Zhang Su helped people in the Leng Palace to sell embroidery and knickknacks out of the palace, but they did not know that he was helping the Leng family after the deposed queen.

Mrs. Leng can afford 20 taels of silver a month to bribe them. Obviously, the gadget she sells is quite profitable.

Sun Ming said: "I heard people say that although the crippled queen is not very smart, she is very kind to others and has never done anything harmful. She guessed that she just didn't want her to make gadgets in the cold palace. Let people outside the cold palace know about selling it, and I'm afraid that people will find fault with her and cause trouble for her."

Although there are many palace daughters in this palace, in order to make more money, they will also make some embroidery in their spare time, or ask the guards to take them out to help sell them, or take them out to sell them when they are resting, so as to earn some money.But according to palace regulations, such things are not allowed, so everyone does it secretly.However, the palace is not strict about investigating this kind of thing now, and the people in charge turn a blind eye and don't pay much attention to it.

However, if you really want to compare with Zhen'er, this is also against the palace rules and will be punished.

Li Cheng didn't say anything. He always felt that it was not that simple for the crippled queen to be willing to spend so much money to bribe them.

Seeing that he was silent, Zhang Su said: "The four of us must agree to this matter, and then we can be given 20 taels of silver a month after being deposed."

"Brother Li, what are you still hesitating about?" Sun Ming said anxiously.I don’t understand why Li Cheng is still hesitating?Where in the world can you find such a good thing?So much money a month, it’s nothing if you don’t earn it!
Zhang Su added: "Brother Li, tell me, the four of us have been guarding the cold palace all day long. We have no acquaintances at the top, and there is no money to support us. If nothing happens, we will have to guard the cold palace for the rest of our lives. Are you really going to do it? Are you willing to hold a salary of three taels of silver a month until your death?"

Naturally, he was unwilling to give in. Li Cheng's hands under the table clenched into fists.

"20 taels of silver a month means more than 200 taels of silver this year! It's almost 500 taels of silver in two years. With these 500 taels of silver, we can buy a small shop for my wife or daughter-in-law at home and do some small business. , I will have no worries about food and clothing from now on.”

Zhang Su paused as he spoke, and then continued, "Moreover, in the future, if something happened to the Leng family, it would be known by people outside. If we investigate, ask a few of our brothers, and we will tell you that we don't know anything." "No one can do anything to us. The worst case scenario is that we can just take off those clothes and start a small business with my mother or daughter-in-law." "Let me tell you, the retired queen is a generous person. In the past two months, I just helped them deliver trinkets to sell out of the palace, and she gave me almost 90 or 20 taels of silver as dividends. By then, the two brothers would also be disabled, so we took turns helping her deliver things out of the palace. , bringing things into the palace, you must be indispensable for this dividend. What we can earn is more than the [-] taels of silver every month!"

Eight or ninety taels of silver!Zhang Suguang received eight to ninety taels of silver from the deposed queen in a month or two. It would take them two to three years to earn this much money!
"Brother Li." Sun Ming urged Li Cheng.

He really wanted to agree, but Zhang Su had already said that the four of them were the ones he wanted to bribe. As long as one person disagreed, then none of them would be able to earn the money.

Li Cheng lowered his eyelids and thought for a while, then finally picked up the tea cup and said to Zhang Su: "Thank you for bringing me the opportunity to make a fortune. I will offer you a cup of tea instead of wine."

Zhang Su smiled and raised the tea cup.

Sun Ming: “I’d also like to toast you, brother.”

The three of them clinked glasses and the matter was settled.

When picking up Wang Ping's class in the afternoon, Zhang Su told Wang Ping about this matter again.Wang Ping was much more cheerful than Li Cheng, and he agreed without even thinking about it.As long as he has money to earn, even if something happens in the future, he will not be afraid of being held accountable or beaten.

In the dead of night, Leng Luoyue arrived at the door of Leng Palace again, and then received good news from Zhang Su.

Leng Luoyue immediately gave Zhang Su 80 taels of silver for August and told him that the silver would be given to them at the beginning of each month just like the monthly salary.

Zhang Su took the money and distributed it to Li Cheng and others the next day.

From then on, the four guards in Leng Palace were regarded as Leng Luoyue's people.

On the fifth day of August, Leng Luoyue, who was taking a nap, was awakened by a burst of hysterical crying and cursing.

She opened her eyes drowsily, got out of bed and left the bedroom with the kitten, who was also awakened.

She held the kitten in her arms and entered the side room where Caiwei and the others worked.

"Who is scolding people?" she asked, looking at Mrs. Xu and the others.

Concubine Xu said: "The late Emperor's Concubine Xu is going crazy! Ever since her son died, her mind has been a little abnormal. As soon as the fifth day of August comes, which is her son's birthday, she will Been crazy for a while."

Originally, the late emperor took pity on her after her son died, but because she was always going crazy, and when she went crazy, she even bumped into the late emperor, so he was mercilessly banished to the cold palace.

Speaking of the late emperor, there were many women in the harem, so many of the princes died young.As for the reason, everyone knows it well.
