Surprise was quite surprising. After Su Wan explained it, Su Chen didn't think anything of it. He didn't want to comment on other people's circumstances, but he just didn't want to affect his family.
It just so happened that Su Wan had something to tell her elder brother. She had been thinking about this decision for several years, and she felt it was the right time.
"Brother, third brother, I have a decision to tell you."
Su Jing knows her sister very well. Once Su Wan makes a decision, she can tell her priorities through her expression.
Su Chen also realized that what Su Wan was going to say next might be very important.
"Wan Wan, just tell me, no matter what decision you make, eldest brother will support you." Su Jing smiled at her.
Su Chen also nodded.
Su Wan has not discussed this matter with his family, so he plans to tell his eldest and third brother first. The two of them are currently in official careers. The eldest brother is the backbone of the Su family. To make any major decisions, he must first obtain his consent.
"I decided to donate our family's Yuyantang property to the imperial court. After nearly four years of operation, through Yuyantang, our family has saved a total of 150,000 taels of family property. Now the imperial court has just finished a war that lasted several years. We spent a lot of money building the dam before and after the war. The national treasury should be quite empty now, right?
I know it is not appropriate for a woman to discuss politics, but I can only say this in front of my brothers. However, I made this decision a few years ago. Those who live on salary will not compete with the people for their career. Now I am the daughter of an official family. Well, Yuyantang will be put in front of others sooner or later, so we might as well take the initiative ourselves.
In order to avoid having to show off and speak out, it will also affect the eldest and third brothers. After all, I am your biological sister. With such a big family fortune, people will be jealous sooner or later, so I decided to donate it to the court and spend another 120,000 taels. Silver is used to subsidize those soldiers who sacrificed their lives and make pension silver. "
As soon as Su Wan made this decision, Su Jing and Su Chen fell silent.
Su Wan is right, those who live on salary will not compete with the people for their careers. If an official's family is still engaged in business, or it is such a big industry, sooner or later, he will be put in front of others to speak. The impeachment of the imperial censors is indispensable. .
But this was all Su Wan's own efforts. Su Jing never thought about asking her to donate it. Instead, she thought that the soldiers would come to cover up the water and the soil, but Wan Wan's efforts could not be ruined. But now, Su Wan's move has made He was ashamed.
"But Wan Wan, this is your hard work, why don't you just donate it?" Su Chen has not been at home in the past few years, but when he heard these numbers, he knew that Su Wan had paid a lot.
We traveled all over the country and worked with our own hands to open up this national industrial chain.
Now I just donated it and left thirty thousand taels for myself. This is too...
"Third brother, I have already made this decision after my eldest brother was in high school and after you joined the army. I know that my two brothers will definitely be able to make a career in the future. Therefore, this industry will either not continue. Once it continues, this will The final result should be expected. This was carefully considered, and my move was also a righteous move. This decision can ensure that our Su family will be safe and worry-free for the rest of our lives, and even for generations to come.
Brother, you can continue to contribute your talents in the court. Third brother, you are now a general, a famous general that can be passed down through the ages. Your achievements will be written in the history books, and your achievements in Kyoto will not stop at the city defense camp. If you take one step forward, maybe I can also earn a position as county head. How powerful is it for my mother to be granted a royal title or something? "
Su Wan made everything so easy that Su Jing and Su Chen felt that she had never given anything to Yuyan Hall.
"Wan Wan..." Su Jing wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Su Wan.
"Okay, big brother, I have made up my mind. Whatever I put in, I will get almost the same reward. Sometimes, giving up is also a kind of wisdom. Think about how to write a letter tomorrow. Now you are the head of our family, and I am not I’ve left absolutely nothing for myself, I’ll tell you later.”
Su Wan smiled mysteriously, and Su Jing knew that this matter was a done deal and could not be changed.
But that's fine. If you donate it, you'll be safe. From now on, the Su family can live a peaceful life. They lose their wealth, but gain a good reputation.
Su Chen also knew that nothing could be changed, but at the same time, he felt that he owed Su Wan too much. She was too sensible. The Su family owed her in the past, and now they still owed more and more. How can they make up for it?
I can never make up for it in this life, I can only love her and love her twice as much.
"Let's not rush this matter. There is still time. We still have to say hello to our families and see what their opinions are."
Su Jing believes that family is a whole, not a single existence, and everyone advances and retreats together.
"I will listen to you. Let's talk about it together tomorrow. If this Yuyantang is donated, the fourth brother can open a restaurant without any scruples."
Su Wan also thought that if he didn't donate, Su Yun would still have to be timid about working in the restaurant.
After donating such a large family property and just opening a restaurant, the court can't say anything, right?
Open openly and openly.
Su Jing smiled helplessly and reached out to pinch Su Wan's face:
"You think about others and don't want to save more for yourself. How about donating less money? Keep more for dowry?"
She made a total of 150,000 taels, so she donated 120,000 taels. Su Jing felt sorry for Su Wan, leaving too little for herself.
Su Wan waved his hands indifferently:
"If you want to donate, please donate thoroughly, otherwise people will think that we are just willing to donate because we have accumulated enough money."
If she can be so confident, she already has it under control. Her Ice Muscle Hall has made a lot of money over the years.
Nowadays, Kyoto's Hyoujido alone earns ten thousand taels of silver per month.
She, Su Wan, has lost Yuyantang, but she is still a hidden rich woman, but her family doesn't know about it.
"Wan Wan, big brother is proud of you."
Su Jing looked at Su Wan's smile and felt sad for some reason.
However, Su Wan really didn't feel bad.
Su Chen was silent, she didn't feel pain, he felt pain for her.
It was already midnight when we got home, Su's mother and Su's father had already gone to bed. There was no shortage of servants in the house now, and the one who served Su's mother was an experienced old nanny.
Everyone else also went to bed, and the three brothers and sisters each returned to their own courtyards.
However, Su Jing couldn't sleep, and Su Chen couldn't sleep either.
When they woke up the next morning, Su Yun and Sun Ling'er both pestered Su Wan to ask if the banquet in the palace was fun.
Also, have you seen the Queen? Is she beautiful?
Su Wan was almost annoyed to death, but she still answered them one by one.
"It's fun. The palace is very big. It's easy to get lost if no one is there to guide you. The Imperial Garden alone is as big as our Su Mansion. There is also the Queen, the mother of the world. It is naturally graceful and luxurious, and the country is beautiful and fragrant."
