I traveled through time and became an unmarried mother-to-be, others are farming and I am enjoying t

After the official left, Yuan Wenjing immediately collapsed on the ground. Last time, because of Yuan Xiuyu's incident, their family had sold all the shops under their name, so they could raise 5,000 taels of silver to give to Yuan Chuyi, but now they had to raise 15,000 taels. The payment for that batch of cloth was 5,000 taels, but we still had to raise 10,000 taels. This ten thousand taels is not a small amount like one thousand!

"What a loser who fails to succeed but fails to succeed." Yuan Wenjing cursed angrily.

"Old Master, what should we do now?" the housekeeper helped Yuan Wenjing sit down on a chair and asked anxiously.

Yuan Wenjing looked tired and sighed, "What other properties does our family have in our name?"

"There are only the dyeing shop, the three small shops for Madam's Dowry, and this house!" the housekeeper said, his voice was heavy and helpless.

"Alas!" Yuan Wenjing sighed heavily, "Hurry up and find a buyer and sell everything! We might be able to get a good price if we sell it ourselves. If we let the government discount it, I'm afraid it will be half the price!"

"Yes!" Butler Yuan went out to find a buyer overnight.

Yuan Chuyi was currently accompanying the children in the yard with Xiao Jing, practicing walking with the two children.

"Madam, the Yuan family is looking for someone to buy the dye shop and house!" Xuan Yue came in to report.

"Find a way to buy the dyeing shop at the lowest price!" Yuan Chuyi said.

"Madam wants the Yuan family's shop, I'll help you get it at the lowest price." Xiao Jing said from the side.

"What can the prince do?" Yuan Chuyi looked at him with a smile and asked with interest.

Xiao Jing smiled and ordered the housekeeper, "Let Xuan Heng do the work. Madam wants Taihe Dyeing House, and no one should touch it!"

"Yes!" the housekeeper said and was about to go out.

"Wait!" Yuan Chuyi shouted, looking at Xiao Jing, "If the prince has a way, why not help me take down that big house!"

Xiao Jing smiled, "Okay!" After saying that, he gave the housekeeper a trick to do it. The housekeeper nodded and went out immediately.

Yuan Chuyi looked at Xiao Jing with curiosity on his face, "Xuan Heng, who is it?"

"Xuan Heng is the behind-the-scenes manager who specializes in managing our palace's business. He went overseas a few months ago and just came back a few days ago!" Xiao Jing said with a smile, "One-third of the business in the capital is under his control. In the business community in the capital, when it comes to the Furui Company he is in charge of, there are not many people who would not appreciate his reputation! It is a small dyeing shop, and others will not argue with him when he talks! I will ask him to come over when you recover. Let me introduce you to each other.”

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, it became clear, "There is a large amount of money in the account of the palace every month. Is it deposited by the business? Alas! I thought the palace had a mine!"

Xiao Jing laughed, "Of course the palace has mines, but the accounts are not in the palace's accounts. They belong to the income and expenditure accounts of the palace's personal guards."

"Oh!" Yuan Chuyi understood that there was also a special amount of money used to train the palace's personal guards. It seemed that the palace's manpower was not limited to these guards.

"Madam, just wait for the good news with peace of mind!" Xiao Jing said, patting Yuan Chuyi's head gently.

"it is good."

As expected, he did nothing on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty and just stayed at home with his children.

As for the Yuan family, in order to sell the dyeing shop and the big house, Butler Yuan ran around looking for buyers, but after working for most of the day and night, no one wanted to buy it, especially the dyeing shop. No one cared about it. There were quite a few people interested in the big house, but knowing that they were eager to sell it, they kept the price very low. The maximum asking price was only two thousand taels.

This big house is worth at least four thousand taels. These people are simply adding insult to injury by offering this price at this time.

The butler was so angry that he cursed. After Yuan Wenjing learned about this situation, he was so angry that his heart ached and he almost fainted. He yelled, "Shameless person! Shameless person!"

After he finished cursing, he still had to drag his tired body and shy old face to the houses of some old colleagues to borrow. After walking around, he actually borrowed one or two thousand taels.

The next day.

One morning, on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, Xiao Jing got up early and made breakfast. After Xiao Jing and her stayed with the child, he reluctantly said goodbye to her and the child, and set off for the Wulin League with the people from Meiyuan Villa.

Mei Aoxue looked at Yuan Chuyi, with a youthful and lively smile, and said to Yuan Chuyi: "Madam, I will come back to see you after I go to the Wulin League with the prince to finish my business!"

Yuan Chu smiled and said, "The door of the palace is open to Miss Mei at any time!"

Mei Aoxue said goodbye to Yunxuan and Yunduo again, and then rode her horse to catch up with Xiao Jing and the old owner Mei.

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he looked at Xiao Jing's retreating figure, feeling disappointed in his heart. But when she turned to look at the two children on the side, she regained her energy and took the children home to play games with them.

At the end of the day, she was playing games with her children in the yard when the housekeeper came with two house deeds in his hand. She took it and saw that it was the deed to the big house and dyeing shop over there. She couldn't help but have a bright smile on her face.

"Two thousand nine hundred taels bought the Yuan family's mansion, and one thousand five hundred taels bought the Taihe Dyeing Shop. It was worth it!" Yuan Chuyi said happily.

"Madam, I don't understand. You bought the dyeing shop to make it easier to dye cloth for the shop later, but why did you buy the big house?" Yun Xuan asked confused.

Yuan Chuyi smiled and pointed to the house deed. The name of the owner of the house written on it was Shiliu.

"This house is where Fifteen and Sixteen once lived, and it is also the yard where his father and mother lived. This house should be left to Shiliu! If he is willing, he can keep it. If he is not unwilling, he can sell it. ."

Yunxuan nodded understandingly, thinking that Yuan Chu Yi was nostalgic.

In fact, Yuan Chuyi was not nostalgic, and that house was not the place where she had lived. The reason why she bought this house was because she was still sixteen. After all, it was the place where Yuan's father and Yuan's mother lived, which is equivalent to the Yuan family's old house. Moreover, the place where Shiliu and the others live now is the property that Xiao Jing gave to Yuan Chuyi. It does not really belong to the Yuan family's property. Now she Use your own money to buy the Yuan family's old house and treat it as the ancestral home left to Shiliu.

Now that the ancestral house has been built, when Yuan Mochen builds a printing workshop and a book shop, plus the dyeing workshop, the Yuan family can be considered a family and business in the capital. In this way, even if she fails to prepare the antidote in a few days and dies of the poison, she can rest in peace.

"Madam, what are we going to do with those thousand pieces of cloth? It's still in the warehouse!" Jiang Xue asked curiously while drinking ice-cold sour plum juice.

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he took out a few pictures from his arms as if he had prepared them early, "Let the embroidery shop sew a batch of horse-faced skirts and tops according to these styles. I believe they will sell well!"

Jiang Xue and Yun Xuan took the pictures and looked at them, and suddenly realized that their wives were not only dyeing these cloths to bring down the old Yuan family, but were also preparing fabrics for making new skirts.

"If Old Master Yuan knew that you were the real buyer of the dyeing shop and the Yuan family's mansion fell into your hands, I wonder if he would be mad to death!" Yun Xuan looked at Yuan Chu and said with a smile.

"You deserve to be so angry!" Jiang Xue said, "That Yuan Hongjie refused to save anyone, and was only interested in profit. He has no morality or credibility at all. The bankruptcy of the Yuan family was caused by his own greed! He deserves it!"

Yuan Chuyi also sighed leisurely, but did not comment. If Yuan Hongjie had been a little more patient, not eager to sell the cloth, and not eager to earn more of the five hundred taels of silver given by Boss Mo, they would not have gone bankrupt and ended up with nothing.

……

Yuan Wenjing was busy moving people with him at this time. Since the house had been sold and the buyer asked them to move out within one day, he had to take the money to the Yamen to pay the settlement. After receiving Yuan Hongjie, he immediately started moving.

"Brother, there are so many of us, where are we going to move now?"

Yuan Wenyuan pulled Yuan Wenjing and asked.

Yuan Wenjing looked at the dozen family members and sighed.

All the servants in the family, except the old housekeeper, have been sold out. Now, in addition to him, Yuan Hongjie, his son, and the housekeeper, there are also Yuan Honghao and three students and their families, which add up to thirteen Four people.

"I asked the housekeeper to use the remaining money to rent a small courtyard on Southeast Street. Let's live there temporarily!" Yuan Wenjing said. He is now as old as a waning old man in his seventies or eighties.

The group of people took the few luggage and pushed the trolley towards Southeast Street. Since the bottles and jars of antique porcelain at home were all pawned and sold, their luggage was not too much, so they were able to keep things simple.

"Dad, who did we sell our yard to? How much money did it cost?" Yuan Hongjie asked as he walked slowly behind Yuan Wenjing angrily.

"Now why are you asking? They've already been sold!" Yuan Wenjing replied displeasedly!

This boss really succeeds more than fails. At this time, he thought more and more about Yuan Hongbin's arrival. If the second brother was here, he would surely shine brightly for the family, and the family would definitely be buzzing with food. But now, in his dying years, he was forced to leave the house where he had lived for most of his life, and had to live out the rest of his life in a small, dilapidated courtyard!

"No, we can't accept our fate like this!" Yuan Wenjing shouted in his heart, he still had Yuan Honghao. Yuan Honghao has finished the exam, and the results will be released within this month. With Yuan Honghao's talent, he will definitely be on the list, and then the Yuan family will be able to become an official again.

He thought to himself that looking at Yuan Honghao was much more affectionate than looking at his biological son Yuan Hongjie.

"Hao'er, do you want any official position in the future?" He called Yuan Honghao to his side and asked happily.

When Yuan Honghao heard his question, he couldn't help but look happy. He stepped forward to help him walk slowly on behalf of the housekeeper, and said: "Thank you for your concern, uncle. It would be great if I could stay in the capital and become an official." Then my nephew will be able to take better care of you and your father!"

Yuan Wenjing nodded appreciatively, "It's great to be so filial! Then uncle will just keep walking around these days."

"Thank you, uncle. My nephew would like to thank you."

Yuan Wenjing patted his hand, nodded with a smile, and said meaningfully: "You will definitely get your wish."

Yuan Honghao suddenly felt confident, believing that he would definitely be on the list this time and get a good official position in the capital.

Yuan Hongjie saw that his father didn't even bother to answer his own questions and focused all his attention on Yuan Honghao. The look in his eyes at Yuan Honghao unknowingly became subtle.

"Butler, who were the houses and the dyeing shop sold to?"

"It was the shopkeeper Chen Xuanling of Furui Trading Company who came forward to buy it."

"Chen Xuanheng's younger brother Chen Xuanling!" Yuan Hongjie was stunned. Everyone doing business in the capital knew that brothers Chen Xuanheng and Chen Xuanling should not be messed with. They were people in the business world who could make the business world tremble with just a stomp of their feet.

"Did they buy it themselves, or did we ask them for it?"

"No one really wants to buy that house and dyeing shop. It's me who is here to buy it. Although the price given by Mr. Chen Er is a little low, it is still fair. It is not like other people who take advantage of the situation and keep the price extremely low. ." Butler Yuan informed Yuan Hongjie of the situation and the buyer truthfully.

Yuan Hongjie frowned, full of suspicion, "Am I wrong in my intuition? There is no conspiracy in this batch of cloth business. Is it really due to my wrong judgment?" He murmured to himself.

Yuan Wenjing listened to all his words, "What did you say?"

Yuan Hongjie glanced at him and said angrily: "I said, I suspect that the cloth business was a conspiracy! Someone set a trap for me and asked me to get in."

"What a trap, it's obviously because you are eager for quick success!" Yuan Wen Jingqi snorted. If he hadn't been running around for Yuan Honghao these days and not keeping an eye on him, how could this business, which was obviously a sure profit, make their family bankrupt.

When Yuan Hongjie saw his father saying something wrong in front of him, he suddenly felt that he was even more embarrassed in front of Yuan Honghao. If this continues, the Yuan family might not be able to find his voice in the future.

"The family has no money and I have failed you. From now on, you can honestly find a job for me and don't think about buying a shop or starting a business!"

Yuan Wenjing snorted coldly. He now puts all his sustenance and hope on Yuan Honghao.

Yuan Hongjie hummed and agreed. But he didn't think so in his heart. He had no worries about food and clothing since he was a child, and he had received a stipend. He didn't know what he could find to do when he went out, or who would use him to work.

It took nearly an hour for the group to finally reach Southeast Street. The housekeeper led them to a secluded alley and in front of a dilapidated courtyard.

"Let's live here for the time being!" Yuan Wenjing said helplessly as he looked at the dilapidated yard. "Everyone should clean up the yard by themselves. From now on, the women will do housework at home, find some repairs, wash and wash. All the men have to go out to find work, and no one is allowed to be idle at home." He ordered.

"Yes!" The Yuan family members responded one after another, and no one dared to disobey them. Now they had nowhere to go, and they were content to be able to huddle with them and have a sheltered place to stay.

Yuan Hongjie didn't want to huddle in this shabby yard. After he found out where he lived, he went out and wandered around.

He was wandering around aimlessly when a row of antique and beautiful courtyards suddenly appeared in front of him. He has lived in the capital for half his life, and he didn't even know there was such a beautiful house on Southeast Street.

As he was looking around, a carriage slowly came and stopped at the gate of the courtyard. A young man got off the carriage and was immediately greeted by two guys in the yard.

"Manager Jiang, you are here! What are your orders this time?"

"I don't have any orders, I just came to see how you are managing the yard? What happened these days?"

"It's okay, everything is fine. Don't worry. If anything happens, I will notify you as soon as possible."

When Yuan Hongjie walked past him with his hands behind his back, Yuan Hongjie couldn't help but look at him a few more times, and suddenly realized that this young man looked very familiar, as if he had seen him there before!

"Where have you seen it before?" He touched his forehead and said to himself in confusion.
