The broker couldn't help but think that Mrs. Zhou was afraid that Scholar Zhou would forget his wife once in office—she felt she had guessed the truth!
Zhulan returned home with two property deeds. When she got home, Zhou Shuren had come back.
There was a small stack of Silver Notes on the table. Zhulan counted them and said, "Just as I had expected, they increased tenfold."
In her hand was silver totaling four thousand taels!
Zhou Shuren had no knack for investment. In modern times, he had never invested nor even bought financial products; he only knew how to save money!
He truly admired Zhulan's eye for investment and her decisiveness. He had worked himself to death and had not earned nearly as much as Zhulan did in just a few transactions.
Zhulan put away the Silver Notes, took out a chest to store the property deeds and Silver Notes, covered it again, and put it back. Sitting back down, Zhulan said, "Yao Zheyu must have realized your intentions by now!"
