MTL - After Emptying the Enemy’s Warehouse, He Carried Supplies To Survive the Disaster Years-Chapter 391 The richest thing is to confiscate your home
“Okay, the Mei family will hand over all their property!”
After learning from the painful experience, Mei Yizhen decided to give up everything outside her body, but this time the humiliation will be engraved in her heart.
The days to come are still long, and who will have the last laugh?
Finally, before all the property of the Mei family had been plundered, Mei Yizhen's declaration had been written and signed.
Mei family members, including their servants, a total of 200 people, with empty hands and not even a hairpin, were sent to the junction of Rift Valley Mansion by sergeants armed with swords and guns.
As for what will happen to the person on the other side after receiving it, it is not a question for Libai to consider.
…
At this time, Li Bai was inspecting Mei's house. The huge house was full of exquisiteness, and the exotic flowers and plants and rocks and rockeries were much more elegant than his and Ziyu's home.
But such a big yard is not Libai’s first choice. He still prefers a smaller yard.
For a couple with a simple population, the big yard seems empty, and it would take them as long as a stick of incense to eat or sleep.
How boring!
Li Bai has already decided that this house will be used as a post house for the government, so that everyone can enjoy it.
The property that was seized was registered by a dedicated person. Li Bai just sat on the chair and waited, already thinking about what kind of courtyard to buy in Jiang Mansion.
As the emperor and the state counselor, the two people do not even have a formal office location, and the existing six mansions are not suitable for building a capital.
Li Bai’s most optimistic view is Yundu. After all, there are already existing imperial palaces there, and it’s in a central location where you can advance or retreat.
The important thing is that there is no need to waste people and money to build a palace.
Li Bai, who had made up his mind, saw Chu Wu, who was in charge of statistics, coming over with a stack of account books and land deeds.
He took the account books and land deeds and quickly looked through them, smiling.
“As for those who do good deeds and accumulate virtue, this wealth can cover our financial expenditure for half a year.
It really corresponds to that saying, the richest thing is to confiscate the house.
Give each brother fifty taels of silver as hard work fee and move on to the next family. "
Nearly one million taels of cash and banknotes were found, as well as many jewelry, calligraphy and painting antiques.
The private property of the Mei family's second wife is far more than Mrs. Mei's private house. The village, shop and farmland included in the dowry total more than 2,000 acres.
These are things they didn't count, so now they're all in the bag, and Li Bai doesn't care about any face issues.
No matter where he comes from, everything he can get his hands on will be confiscated.
Moving to appease the people, build houses and roads, and raise troops does not require money. You can't let his wife pay for all expenses!
Seeing the huge property of the Mei family, Li Baizhi regretted that he had left out the eldest son of the Mei family, Mei Ji's family.
Because the Mei family's family has moved to Baili City, they can only wait for the next opportunity.
Li Bai vowed to give all the wealthy families in Jiang Mansion a fair start.
…
Each sergeant received a reward of fifty taels of silver on the spot, so he was very motivated.
The sealed financial items were sent to the government office one by one, and Zhang Yuansi rushed over to take over.
Zhang Yuansi was transferred to Jiang Prefecture as the prefect because of his rich experience and integrity as an official. With the strong support of people from the Libai faction, he took over smoothly.
When Ziyu woke up, Shaoyao, who was responsible for serving her, had returned from Xiagu Mansion. After washing herself, she hurried back to wait on her.
Ziyu saw that her long hair was still dripping with water and blamed herself.
“You stinky girl, you don’t know how to take care of your body, but no man will care about you!”
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Your servant will go and dry them in a moment. The wounded in Xiagu Mansion have been properly placed.
Doctor Du and his disciples are there to guard the place personally, and the slaves must not forget their duties.
Otherwise, Manager Qiu should get angry again. "
Shaoyao, with a rosy cheek and a burning gleam in her eyes, witnessed her master's heroic figure with her own eyes.
This girl's eyes are full of mindless admiration, even her master looks so cool when he yawns or picks his eyes.
“I’m talking while eating, I’m so hungry that my chest is touching my back!” Ziyu said, rubbing her empty stomach. “Master, please wait a moment. Chef Qiu has prepared the food and is waiting for the master to pass the dishes on.”
Shao Yao mixed the washing water and rushed to the kitchen in a hurry.
After a while, Chef Qiu himself came in carrying a tray, followed by a group of servants delivering food.
“Hey, why are you all running here!”
Good fellow, all the servants who often serve at home are here, including Butler Sheng.
"This is not someone who knows that the emperor is busy and has no useful people around him, so he asked them to come together.
It is convenient for the emperor to call upon you, and you can still get it! "
Steward Sheng has heard people talk about the grand occasion of Xiagu Mansion, and he finally feels proud.
The matter of killing many people in Beimang to relieve their anger was a matter of course, so he had to bring people to help. He couldn't do anything else. It was his responsibility to be responsible for the logistics work.
“General Manager Qiu has issued a death order. If you don’t serve the emperor well, you will be cramped and skinned. How can the servants dare to be careless?
The slaves follow the emperor and have not yet enjoyed all the glory and wealth, so how dare they die! "
Butler Sheng carefully placed the dishes on the table one by one, stood aside and said with a smile.
Looking like that, there is no way he is afraid of being skinned.
“Haha, have any of you seen Butler Qiu peeling his skin?”
“Your Majesty, I have seen this before, peeling off rabbit skin and cramping fish tendons!” Shaoyao raised his hand and joked.
Ziyu put a piece of snack in Shaoyao's mouth and said to her.
“I’ve been busy all day, why don’t I go down to eat quickly.
By the way, where is the National Preceptor! "
Ziyu woke up for a while and finally realized that Li Bai didn't show up.
"Hee hee! Your Majesty doesn't know something. The Imperial Master is in Jiang Mansion." Butler Sheng revealed with a smile from ear to ear.
Steward Sheng couldn't help but feel happy when he thought about the news he heard. God was really helping his master.
“What did he do in Jiang Mansion? Come and tell me!”
Ziyu, who was enjoying her meal, became somewhat interested. There was never a rule with her that she should eat and sleep without talking.
Whether it is the servants in the family or the Daxiawan people who are familiar with her, they all know this.
…
“The Southern Kingdom voluntarily abandoned Jiang Mansion and retreated to Rift Valley Mansion, and the emperor picked up another mansion for nothing.” Steward Sheng said concisely and concisely.
“Damn, Xiao Hongyuan is so interesting that I feel embarrassed to hit him.”
Ziyu stood up suddenly, how could this be different from what she had planned?
“Hahaha, it’s because of the great reputation of the emperor and the imperial advisor that they scared the Southern Emperor away.”
“Hahaha, the emperor and the imperial master are so powerful!” Pandan and Vanilla said in unison.
This caused everyone to burst into laughter, while Chef Qiu watched Ziyu eat with a smile, all three dishes in front of him were on the disk.
Chef Qiu, whose cooking skills were recognized, had a crumpled smile on his face. It seemed that the other three dishes were reserved for the national chef.
Sure enough, Ziyu, who put down her chopsticks, pointed to the dishes on the table.
“Shaoyao, load up the three dishes and I’ll take them to Jiang Mansion and prepare the horses!”
“Okay, your Majesty, wait a moment!”
Everyone present did not understand the relationship between their master and the Imperial Master. They had already prepared food boxes and even bowls and chopsticks.
Hooking slightly, a small team of horses and carriages drove steadily out of Zhongshan Mansion.
