Chapter 133

The box was not too big, but it was heavy. Zhu Jiayi looked around and saw that the courtyard wall was so high that no one was prying. After filling the hole and putting the floor tiles back in place, she took her sister to the path between the rockery and recruited the two men.

She wiped the dirt off the box with a handkerchief, and then opened the first one, which turned out to be full of oriental pearls, all round and flowing in the sun with a beautiful luster. Among the tributes, it is also the best, a priceless treasure!
Even the two men who don't care much about money can't help but gasp. This is definitely not something that a small Changping Token can get. A few coins can definitely manage the grain business.

Hundreds of them, to put it bluntly, even a small country can buy them!
This is probably someone who left it here, forgot to take it away, and let them pick it up.

Closing the box, Zhu Jiayi rubbed her hands together, let out a breath into her palms, and then opened the second box, which contained a whole piece of cut top-quality imperial green stone!
How much stone can be used for a pair of head and face, but if it is inlaid with emperor green jade, it is worth thousands of gold.

How many sets of this imperial green can be made with a box full?
Zhu Jiayi has a master's degree in archeology and has devoted her whole life to it. Of course, she knows exactly what these two boxes are.Although they are not as good as the wealthiest man in the country and the province's richest man, they are still enough for generations to squander.

Diao Er had a guilty conscience, and chose a box of good things for Zhu Jiayi out of public interest. The value was almost twice as much as her dowry, and it was full of small things.

Now she used her ability to hide things, pulled out all the things in the box, even the hundreds of East Pearls, distributed them among four people, and then put the whole piece of imperial emerald into the box.

Their waists were all thick, but the carriage was parked at the door, and before the neighbors who probed could find out that something was wrong, the sisters Zhu Jiayi quickly got into the carriage.

Huo Shangjie also held the box and followed closely behind, while Hang Sihan locked the door and put on a seal and entered the compartment.

They went to Huo's house, sent the coachman back to Hang's house, closed the door of the main room and began to distribute things.

Zhu Jiayi first returned the dowry that her sister subsidized to her, and then divided Dongzhu equally.

As for the imperial jade, it will be temporarily placed in Huo's house, and after the drought is over, it will be sent to the south to be carved into jade ornaments and then shared equally.

In the next few days, grain was continuously transported in from outside the city, no matter how much it was, it was looted by the common people.Rumors about the drought were like a tornado, quickly sweeping through the entire capital, and quickly spreading around from here.

Grain merchants and even some wealthy households quickly sensed the smell of money from the coming drought, and sent people to the south to buy grain quickly, and even spent a lot of money to hire escorts to escort them north.

At this time, Hang Sihan and Huo Shangjie donated [-]% of the purchased grain to the court.

The emperor was delighted, and specially appointed two people as imperial envoys for this drought, and also gave them Shang Fang's sword to stand up, and Jin Yiwei also let them use it.

The officials of the imperial court secretly gloated and watched the excitement. Natural disasters and man-made disasters are very troublesome, and the hard work and danger are also great if the credit is great.What's more, this drought affects a wide area and the disaster is serious. If it is not handled properly, the impact will last for two or three years!
When the time comes, the emperor will be furious, so why don't he turn his anger on these two unlucky ghosts?
Young people just like to show off, so don't they look at the limelight and enjoy it?
