To get rich quickly, you need to be simple and rough

After eating and drinking, Shen Yujin lay in a rocking chair at home and drank tea. The combination of Hupao Spring water and West Lake Longjing tea is a perfect match.

The mountains and rivers were not polluted at this time. The last time I went to Huichan Temple, Shen Rong donated ten taels of silver for incense money, and Shen Yujin drew two large gourds of Hupao Spring water at Hupao Spring.

It had been thrown away in the space all along, so today was a chance to steal a little time from the busy life. Shen Yujin was also a dilettante, with several plates of snacks placed in front of him.

The snacks at Suhang are very beautiful. The snacks served on hot days all have a minty flavor. They are not too sweet and look pretty. The shapes of little rabbits and walnuts are very cute.

There were only four pieces of dim sum on a plate, and they were really exquisite and expensive. Shen Rong was with his son and knew that his son liked exquisite things, so he asked someone to buy some dim sum early in the morning.

Now that the autumn exam is over, we are just waiting for the results. Shen Rong doesn't want to put pressure on his son. The child has been through so much. There has never been a scholar in the Shen family.

No matter how the test results turned out, the child couldn't be blamed. Shen Rong picked out something happy to tell his son, "Last month, our family shipped another batch of cloth from the sea, and your grandfather exchanged this batch of cloth for a box of gems.

The smallest piece is as big as a fingernail. Your grandfather said that these gems should be set into jewelry to be used as a betrothal gift for you to marry, so that your in-laws will look up to us.

Shen Yujin smiled and said, "Dad, when I pass the exam, I'll let grandpa pick a wife for me personally!"

Shen Rong smacked his lips and said, "Your grandfather is worried too. Your grandmother passed away early, and your mother is also unlucky. It's not good for two grown men like us to go around snooping around to find other people's girls. Your grandfather is very angry and has trained your second aunt a lot at home!"

You don't even know that your grandfather paid a large sum of money to hire a nanny to teach your second aunt, just so that she could find you a wife who would be embarrassing in the future.

Now your Second Aunt has become much more polite, knowledgeable, and intelligent. She has become a bit like a lady from a wealthy family!"

Shen Yujin felt warm in his heart because his grandfather had nothing to say about him. He raised him with care and love.

Three days later, the list of successful candidates was posted outside the Imperial Examination Hall. Shen Rong and his family crowded to see it. Shen Yujin's name was third from the left. This meant he had passed the imperial examination and was a precious student on government stipends.

Students on government stipends could receive 24 dan of rice every year, which was an honor, like the difference between those who took the entrance exam for a 985 university and an ordinary undergraduate in later generations.

The Shen family happily packed up and returned home. Shen Rong hadn't given up on the house and had signed a one-year lease. Next year would be the autumn provincial examination. Shen Yujin decided to return home and continue studying hard.

After being away from home for a long time, Shen Fu also missed his grandson.

The Shen family packed their luggage and returned to their hometown with the new things they bought in Hangzhou.

Shen Yujin personally kowtowed to announce the good news to Shen Fu. Shen Fu excitedly opened the ancestral hall to worship his ancestors and invited people from the same village to dinner. He did not accept gifts, but only wanted to say congratulations sincerely and they could enjoy the buffet at the door.

Shen Fu was thrilled. The Shen family finally had a scholar. From then on, they had escaped the vulgar tastes of merchants and farmers.

This is class leap, this is turning over a new leaf. Shen Fu secretly called Shen Yujin into the room and asked Shen Yujin to store all the profits he had made in the past few days in the space. Shen Yujin was speechless. His family members were not fools.

The whole family won’t believe that grandpa has no savings. Isn’t this a disaster within the family?

Shen Fuze said calmly: "Silly child, how can our baby be safe?

Grandpa has already distributed the profits to each branch. This is what we deserve. Grandpa still understands the principle of not putting all your eggs in one basket.

Each family has its own way of hiding money. You don't really think they left with just a small bag! Even a centipede is still alive after death.

Our Shen family doesn't have much wealth, but we have plenty of money. It's just that according to the rules, you and your father's branch will get 70% of the property. Grandpa is old, regardless of whether he has money or not.

You and your father must also take care of grandpa. If the other branches split up, they can only come to see me during the three festivals and two birthdays. As long as your father is still breathing, it must be your father who beats grandpa!

Silly child, just accept what your grandfather gave you. Your father will also divide it in the same way in the future. Do you think I am joking, eldest son? Silly boy, you are still too soft-hearted!

After being scolded by his grandfather, Shen Yujin collected the things in the old man's warehouse. Shen Fu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Shen Yujin had collected all the things.

"Grandma, seeing all this silver piled up at home, Grandpa is scared. You should dig a cellar for me when you have time, so that I can have a place to hide my money."

Shen Yujin quickly nodded in agreement. The old man must have been traumatized by the house search. Without a cellar, he probably couldn't sleep well.

The next day, Shen Yujin went to buy 200,000 bricks. It happened that his family was building a house, and the farmhands and servants lived in a very crowded place that looked untidy.

Taking advantage of this opportunity to expand, Shen Yujin took away 20,000 bricks and stored them in the space.

It was particularly easy to dig the soil for the cellar since Shen Yujin had the space, but building a cellar was not an easy task.

It took Shen Yujin half a month to build a 20-square-meter cellar for Shen Fu. He laid a layer of charcoal under the blue bricks to make it waterproof, and the pillars supported by glutinous rice juice cement and stone bars were also strong.

Shen Fu was a little dissatisfied, complaining that the cellar was too small. Shen Yujin almost knelt down and kowtowed. "Grandpa is really a living ancestor. Such a big basement and you still complain it's too small? How much money do you want to make!"

Shen Rong absolutely turned a blind eye to his father's behavior. If he was the apple of his father's eye before, now he was just an eyeball. His father's heart had long been inclined to Java.

The eldest grandson is the old man's life now! Excuse me, everyone else, please stand aside for a moment!

Shen Yujin was busy at home, thinking about fabrics. Cotton and silk are OK, but can cashmere be added? The answer is definitely yes.

The most difficult part of wool is degreasing, so Shen Yujin asked his family to buy a lot of wool from mutton soup restaurants and butchers.

After taking it home, everyone worked together to use an iron comb to sort out the few remaining undercoats. Shen Yujin was not going to miss out on the remaining wool and would weave it with cotton in a one-to-one ratio to make tweed fabric.

This is a scarce commodity all over the world. Shen Yujin bought some lime and filled a large water tank at home with some quicklime. He soaked it in hot water and poured in some more lime.

I saw that the water tank was like a boiling pot. I poured the washed wool and cashmere into the tank and soaked them for two hours. The originally hard wool became soft.

After scooping out the wool and cashmere with a strainer, washing and drying it several times, the cashmere becomes as soft as mink fur. After dyeing, the cashmere is mixed with cotton in a ratio of 3:7 and a little hair-thin gold and silver thread is added. The woven fabric is soft and smooth with star-like spots.

The Shen family members present were stunned. This stuff was no worse than peacock velvet!
