Chapter 20: The No. 1 eunuch becomes one of our own?

Lu Zhanxing returned to his room and was about to open the brocade box to see how much wealth was inside.

Liu Xu reported softly: "Master, Lu Tong brought two little girls to wait outside the door."

I don’t know what the young master was busy with in the room after he came back.

After hearing the report, Lu Zhanxing remembered the two sisters who were both experts in medicine and poison.

He could only helplessly hide the brocade box in his own space. The space was still white and he didn't know what use it was.

Just in case, she hid a lot of valuable jewelry, pendants, ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, antiques, etc. in it. If the Anguo Mansion was really finished, she could still run away with her family and not starve to death.

Who would have thought that such enormous wealth would suddenly fall from the sky, and now she doesn't have to worry about food and clothing at all.

After calming down his excitement, he walked out of the inner room and sat on the couch in the outer room: "Bring them in!"

When the twin sisters saw the benefactor who bought them, they all knelt down and kowtowed to express their gratitude: "Thank you for your help, benefactor. We two sisters will be your maids from now on. We can do any dirty and tiring work."

Lu Zhanxing looked at the twin girls, who were about fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing gray clothes and having their hair tied with two hairpins. They were pretty and charming.

Mu Qingli is really willing to do this.

"What are their names? Who is the younger sister and who is the older sister?"

"This servant is my elder sister, Huali!"

"I am your younger sister, Hua Guo!"

These two girls look exactly the same, so it's hard to tell them apart.

"Okay, from now on, the elder sister is not allowed to have bangs, but the younger sister can have bangs so that it is easier to identify. Liu Xu, let Ting Xue take them to settle down first, and then arrange things for them to do tomorrow."

Let's leave it alone for now. Now that we know they are someone else's eyes and spies, it will be easy to deal with them. We may even need them to "pass on" messages.

Liu Xu responded and called Tingxue over, asking them to take the two sisters downstairs to rest and teach them the rules.

After dealing with the twins, Lu Zhanxing called Liu Xu to the inner room and asked Yu Lu to guard outside the door.

"Liu Xu, you have to keep an eye on these two girls. They are spies sent by others, but they are temporarily useful to me. If they make any unusual movements, you must inform me in time.

Besides, these two sisters know some medicine and poison, so you should be careful."

Hearing this, Liu Xu looked solemn: "Don't worry, Master. I will keep a close eye on them."

"The two sisters are very alert, so don't be too serious. If you encounter something you can't handle, notify my brother if I'm not around." Lu Zhanxing instructed carefully.

Fortunately, Liu Xu knew medical skills, so she felt at ease leaving the twins under her care.

Lu Tong is quite smart, so it shouldn't be difficult for him to keep an eye on the two girls.

After instructing Liu Xu, Lu Zhanxing let her go out and took out a brocade box from the space. One would be shocked if he didn't see it. It was like two treasure troves!

There are sixteen large-sized manors, thirty-nine medium-sized manors and one hundred and nine small-sized manors.

With a monthly income of 100,000 taels, the accumulation over these two generations would be at least several million taels.

There are also two lists of valuable items, such as Persian long wool carpets, large rosewood carved dragon desks, and exquisite double-sided embroidered screens.

A three-foot-high green-blue ancient bronze tripod, a mother-of-pearl nanmu cabinet, countless paintings and calligraphy by masters, gold, silver, jade, jewelry, jadeite, silks and satins... and other priceless treasures.

Not to mention the rent and shops in prime locations, there is also the Yufeng Commercial Bank that continuously creates wealth.

These are the dowries left by her great-grandmother and grandmother. The accumulated wealth is enough for her to spend for several lifetimes.

My goodness, the three-story silver shop and jewelry and clothing store "Shi Se Fang" that was the most popular among the noble ladies in the capital was actually owned by my great-grandmother. The "Jin Bang Ti Ming" bookstore and the "Wen Yuan Ge" teahouse that was a favorite place for literati and poets, the "Yipin Xiang" restaurant, the "Ping An Inn" and the "Guang Ren Pharmacy" were all opened by my grandmother.

The more I look at it, the more shocking it is, and I can’t calm down!

These dowries are not included in the income and expenses of the Anguo Mansion. These are dowries unique to female members of the family, and even the royal family cannot take them privately.

No wonder in the book, even if Lu Zhanyan did not have the Molong Order, he still had so much wealth to train manpower. So this is what is going on.

Now...these are all mine, hahaha!

On this day, Lu Zhanxing was smiling even in his sleep.

It was not until early the next morning that Yu Feng came to pay a visit with a man and a woman, and asked several servants to carry several large boxes containing account books from the past few decades.

"Master, this servant Yu Feng is currently in charge of the dowry industry of the two old ladies."

Yu Feng is about thirty-five years old. He has an easy-going face but a pair of shrewd eyes. He is somewhat similar to Manager Yu and gives people the impression of being down-to-earth and steady.

"Okay, from now on you will be the steward of my Liuliyuan, and you will still be in charge of my grandmother's property."

"Yes, young master." Yu Feng was very happy to be valued.

My father said that the second young master was not a real playboy, but a master worthy of trust, so he must seize the opportunity, so he came to pay a visit early in the morning.

Then, the woman who was about 30 years old also knelt down and said, "My servant Lin Yun greets the young master. I am the person in charge of Yufeng Commercial Bank."

Another man with a feminine appearance and a fair complexion also saluted: "My name is Bai Jing, a servant of the Princess. I am honored to meet my master."

Lu Zhanxing was stunned. Bai Jing?

Isn't this the most important eunuch around the Fourth Prince in the future?

It is said that he is a martial arts expert and was deeply trusted by the Fourth Prince after he became emperor.

Wait, what's going on? Why is he here in front of me?

In the book, even though my cousin got this wealth, he had never met the father-in-law Bai Jing!

Could it be that this is another spy sent here by someone?

"Bai Jing, my great-grandmother has been dead for many years, why are you here?"

She asked in doubt, with a hint of defensiveness in her eyes.

Bai Jing said respectfully, "My adoptive father's adoptive father's adoptive father was the guardian of the eldest princess' tomb. After I was adopted by my adoptive father, I was castrated and followed him to practice martial arts and guard the tomb. This time, I learned that the master was confirmed, so I was sent by my adoptive father to follow the master."

"You don't have to continue guarding my great-grandmother's tomb?"

"It was I who asked for the grace of my foster father. I do not want to stay in the dark mausoleum. Please grant my wish, Master."

He knelt down and begged very sincerely. He really didn't want to stay in the dark mausoleum. Even if he didn't have a confirmed master this time, he planned to adopt an orphan to guard the mausoleum after his adoptive father passed away. He wanted to go out into the world.

After getting the answer, Lu Zhanxing was shocked. So, because his grandfather gave him the dowries of his two grandmothers in advance, this future number one eunuch was not subdued by the Fourth Prince, but became his own man?

In the book, Bai Jing is also a well-known "White-Faced Young Master" in the martial arts world. He is a loner with great martial arts skills. Later, when the Fourth Prince went to Qinzhou to quell a rebellion, he encountered Bai Jing who was being hunted for revenge, so he rescued him. The two became acquainted, and after learning that Bai Jing was a eunuch, he recruited him as his personal eunuch.

Bai Jing wanted to refuse, but after learning that the Fourth Prince and the Eldest Princess were related, he agreed.

Only later did the first eunuch come into being.
