Zhou Shuren was a bit baffled, "My dear, are you giving me Twenty thousand taels?"
Although he wasn't concerned about his family's wealth, he still knew that most of the Silver Coin sent by Ning Residence was meant as a dowry for the daughter, and his wife had two large batches of Silver Coin in hand, one from selling the shops and the other from selling grain from the family estate.
Because they had acquired the grain at a good time, selling it had been hugely advantageous for the family.
Yet he also knew that as the year-end approached, numerous social obligations and gift-giving had cost a lot of Silver, and now his wife had at most a little more than thirty thousand taels. To take out twenty thousand all at once was a staggering sum.
Zhulan then said, "Didn't you mention the Emperor wished to sell antiques for a good price?"
Zhou Shuren nodded, "Yes, do you have any good ideas?"
