Zhou Erlang opened his own bundle, took out a slightly smaller cloth bag, and opened it for him to see.
Inside were two bundles of well-tied copper coins and three ingots of silver, each weighing five taels.
Zhou Erlang said, "This is what Dad and Mom asked me to bring. Is it enough?"
Zhou Silang shook his head, "At the very least we need double that. The rent isn't much, but the deposit is high."
Zhou Erlang frowned and then looked towards Manbao.
Manbao, grinning proudly, said, "See how awesome I am? I have it!"
Zhou Erlang then tapped her little head and said with a laugh, "Yeah, you're the most awesome. Lend the money to the family first, and when your Fourth Brother gets the money from the County Magistrate Tang, he'll pay you back."
Zhou Silang then said, "She might as well pay herself back, Second Brother. You don't know how powerful she is now. Even the contract we signed with County Magistrate Tang was her doing."
