Chapter 126 Opening the Treasure Box

"We each have a small courtyard and a few more rooms. In the future, when my sisters get married, they can return to their parents' home and live there for a long time. It is still necessary."

"After getting married, you should live with your husband's family. Why do you want to go back to your parents' home to live for a long time? What will others say?" Jiang Fugui didn't understand. In his opinion, no married girl would go back to her parents' home to live for a long time.

"Why not? As long as I'm your brother, it doesn't matter if you live in your parents' house forever. Why bother about what others say?" Jiang Youzhen naturally didn't care. It was lively for the family to live together.

If Jiang Youzhen wasn't afraid of turning his brother-in-law into a gigolo, he really wouldn't mind the three sisters coming back to live with him for a long time.

Si Ya put her hands on her hips and snorted, "That's right! I don't mind, so why not? If others gossip about you, then let them be envious!"

The family chatted and laughed, stayed up together until after midnight, and went back to sleep after eating dumplings.

This year was the happiest year for the second branch of the Jiang family. They had food and drink and did not have to worry about the coming year.

Jiang Youzhen returned to the house. She was still not sleepy because she had slept too much during the day. She thought of the treasure in the storage space and decided to take it out to have a look.

First of all, there was the box of gold and silver. I didn’t have time to look at it at the time, so I didn’t know how much was inside.

Jiang Youzhen opened the small box with excitement. As soon as he opened a crack, he was almost blinded by the golden light.

When it was fully opened, Jiang Youzhen was deeply shocked by the scene before him.

Have you ever seen such round, full, brand new and shiny gold ingots? Have you ever seen rows of gold ingots waving at you? Have you ever seen gold ingots stacked up in layers besides the top row? Have you ever seen a few priceless gold and silver jewels randomly piled up in the gaps between the gold ingots on the shelf?

No! All the beautiful readers must have seen them, they are all rich people. But Jiang Youzhen has never seen them, because she is certainly not as good as the beautiful readers.

"Oh my god! It's not that I'm ignorant. If this happened in my previous life, how many gold bracelets would I have to make?"

Thinking back to her previous life, she had to spend two months’ salary to buy a 50-gram gold bracelet.

Here, you only need one-fifth of a gold ingot to make one. Jiang Youzhen took a gold ingot weighing five taels and weighed it in his hand. It was heavy. If he made it into a bracelet and wore it on his hand, wouldn’t his wrist be broken? (In this article, one tael is assumed to be 50 grams in reality, so it is easier to calculate)

It is true that a man cannot become rich without unexpected wealth, and a horse cannot grow fat without night grass!

"Oh! God! Please don't do this to me anymore. It makes me not want to work hard anymore."

Jiang Youzhen counted them and found that there were twenty in the upper row, five layers in total, which means a total of one hundred.

He almost couldn't catch his breath, and pinched his philtrum. Jiang Youzhen counted with his fingers, how many taels are one hundred gold ingots? Five hundred taels of gold? Right?

She can't even count! One tael of gold is equal to ten taels of silver, which means five thousand taels of silver. Emma! Fortunately, fortunately! It's still within the acceptable range!

Jiang Youzhen bit the back of his hand tightly to prevent himself from screaming, "Oh my god! That's five thousand taels!"

No! What about the jewelry? I almost forgot about it!

Jiang Youzhen quickly picked up one of the golden hairpins and found that it had extremely detailed carvings. What the hell is this? Jiang Youzhen opened his mouth into an O shape.

Are there castles in the air carved on the hairpin? This hollowing craft is as delicate as a hair.

"Oh my! We can't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients. They are truly ingenious! Tsk tsk!"

Jiang Youzhen put it down and picked up another bamboo-shaped gold bracelet inlaid with red, blue and green gemstones.

The clasp of the bracelet is very unique, made into the shape of a hook and plum blossom petals. The petals are inlaid with rubies, which is really beautiful. The purity of those few gems is very good and worth a lot of money.

She quickly rummaged through the treasure chest and found the other one. It really was a pair!

I flipped through it and saw a distraction. The carving was nice, but not as eye-catching as the previous ones. Nothing special, just heavy.

I also found a pair of gold and jade hairpins. The jade inlaid inside was made into the shape of a peach heart, and there were large red and blue sapphires inlaid next to it.

He pulled out two rings inlaid with rubies and sapphires from underneath. Jiang Youzhen tried them and found they were a little big, so he took them off and put them away.

"Huh? There's also a pair of bracelets? But this kind of filigree craftsmanship is really beautiful, quite unique, and most importantly, very heavy!"

Jiang Youzhen rummaged around in it a few more times and pulled out a handful of gems.

"This? Is it really a cat's eye?" Jiang Youzhen took out four golden and green gems that looked like cat's eyes. They were as big as the glass marbles in his previous life.

Even though the candlelight was dim, the purity of the cat's eye could still be seen. Oh my god! Wouldn't these four beads alone be worth two thousand taels? They were really too big and of such good quality.

Jiang Youzhen didn't know what to say. She must have been a good person for ten generations, right? Otherwise, she felt that such luck was unrealistic.

The remaining few were all rubies and sapphires, of very high purity and large size, plus twenty or thirty garnet beads and two pieces of chicken-fat yellow amber that were smaller than the palm of a hand.

Amber is transparent, and its quality is beyond words, it is so beautiful. Garnet is bright red, so many of them should be able to be strung into beads.

Jiang Youzhen felt around inside again and only found two garnets.

"It seems that's all." Although she felt a little unsatisfied, it was quite shocking to see so many treasures spread out on the bed.

"It turns out that the most valuable things are not these gold ingots, but these gems and jewelry. If you don't count the gold ingots, all of these can be sold for more than 8,000 taels, right?"

Jiang Youzhen smiled foolishly, what happened? He accidentally got rich again!

How to spend so much money? Jiang Youzhen can't think of it, readers, can you help me think about it? Do you have any good suggestions?

Having said that, she has no plans to sell these for the time being. They are all treasures and it is not difficult to make money from them. She may not be able to come across such good ones when she wants to buy them in the future.

Besides, who knows whether it is safe to sell this thing now, even though the skeleton brother looks like he has been dead for decades.

She picked up the ingot and examined it carefully. The shape was the same as the silver ingots of this dynasty. She had also seen gold ingots of this dynasty, but she had never owned one.

Gold is not something that ordinary people can have. Even if you go to a bank to exchange silver notes, you have to pay a conversion fee to get silver and gold! Jiang Youzhen looked over and over again and found that there was no mark on the ingot. His heart sank.

It seems that gold was minted privately. The gold and silver ingots used by the people of this dynasty are generally engraved with "Dayun Chengming" because it is now the 23rd year of Chengming in the Dayun Dynasty, and the emperor is called Emperor Chengming.

Thinking about the complete set of gold and silver casting equipment rewarded by the system, I wonder if it is possible to engrave words on it and make it exactly the same as it is today.

So it was waiting for me here! Jiang Youzhen sighed. If it wasn't recast, it would have to be ground into gold. How troublesome would that be?
