After the villains heard my voice, they all lost their composure.

Chapter 41 How does the princess want to express herself?

Yongchang failed to read the storybook with the princess, and listened to the princess complaining about the person who wrote the storybook in her heart, because her princess was very angry at the moment!
Yan Mude, a little expert in accounting, spent half a day reading the account books that Yan Mu'an gave him. He also asked for the account books of the Princess's Mansion over the years. He even found and compared the account books from ten years ago. Finally, he said something to Yan Mu'an. Very bad news.

"People in the clan say that what my aunt is best at is not doing business, but farming. The fields under the name of the princess's house are fertile and fertile under the management of the aunt. There are no worries about droughts and floods, and the yield has always been very high. Princess The government’s account books from earlier years also show that the harvest was very good.”

"But the harvests recorded in the account books of the fertile fields in the Princess's Mansion in recent years are actually incomparable to ordinary fertile fields. Natural disasters are not bad, but although these years are not smooth, they are not disaster years either."

Yan Muan understood what he meant. Someone had concealed the harvest and was greedy for food.

After talking about the food, Yan Mude then talked about the business of the shop, which is divided into two parts, one belongs to the silly eldest sister's mother, and the other belongs to the silly eldest sister's father. The two places are combined in one place and are managed by a big manager and several small managers. .

"I thought there was just something wrong with the money stored in the bank account, but I found out after looking at the account. I don't even want to fool you anymore."

"There were no problems with the accounts for the two years before my aunt and uncle died, but gradually there were some minor problems. It feels like the accounts for the past two years were filled in and handed in by the stewards at will."

"It is true that we are making money every year, and the number of shops is also increasing, but the profit is not much. It should not be the profit of those shops. Only the managers themselves know what is happening to the extra shops."

Yan Muan rubbed his head, "Just tell me, how much money did I lose?"

Yan Mude gave her a very conservative amount, "no less than what was withdrawn from the ticket number."

400 million taels?

Yan Mu'an made some calculations in his mind, and he couldn't figure out whether it would be several hundred million in notes.
She expected that the people below would be greedy, but she didn't expect them to be so greedy!

but
"So what if I know, I don't have anyone who can replace them. If I punish them while they come to pay their accounts this time, I'm afraid I will end up with even more losses."

"And if the people change, the money they swallowed can be spit out?"

Time is too tight.

But if she didn't resolve the matter, she would be too uncomfortable to sleep thinking about how much money had been swallowed up.

Even if she gave so much money to the prince, the prince would be able to build a strong army to protect her wealth.

She was thinking about it, and Yan Mude also frowned. He knew that the princess's family property was very big, but he didn't expect it to be so big, and there was no suitable person in the clan to take over. "If it doesn't work, we can only stabilize them first, and do whatever we can." I don’t know, wait until you are ready to attack, the money that those people on the left and right are greedy for is in their hands, and they will not run away.”

Yan Mu'an sighed, as if this was all he could do for the time being.

In this way, Yan Muan was still worried about this matter when Yongchang arrived.

When he saw Yong Chang entering the door, he just raised his eyes and said, "You're back?"

"Ah."

Yong Chang was a little curious. He had never seen the princess so listless before, "Have you encountered something troublesome?"

"Ah."

[Should you tell him, forget it, he is not a good person either. 】

Yong Chang raised his eyebrows. When did he stop being a good person?
He picked up the tea at hand and took a sip. Thinking about it, he didn't seem to be a good person.

Seeing him having tea with the old god around, Yan Mu'an couldn't help but complain in her heart, "Look, if you don't want to be a widowed king, who will?" 】

[I already told you that I’m having trouble, why can’t you ask more questions? 】

[You have been eating from me recently and living in my house. Shouldn't you be polite? 】

Yong Chang put down the tea cup and met her gaze, "If the princess is troubled by something that I can help with, just ask."

Yan Mu'an sat up straight, "I was speaking too loudly just now. It turns out you need to think before you speak." ] "I read a storybook. The girl was born in a very wealthy family. Unfortunately, her parents died before she grew up. The huge family property was taken care of by the slaves at home. The slaves bullied the girl and they didn't understand. , embezzling her property secretly and embezzling a huge sum of money."

"Then the girl found out, but she didn't have anyone who could replace those slaves. She was very sad because of you."

Yongchang lowered his eyes and smiled softly. Fortunately, she found a reason. Did the stewards of the Princess' Mansion have second thoughts?

normal.

"Then do you want to punish the person or something else?"

Yan Mu'an said: "Punish the person and get the money back, but I still want to use it until I find a more suitable person."

After saying that, I felt something was wrong, and my eyes became sharp, [You were noticed so quickly? 】

[Well, my excuse is also very poor. 】

Yongchang smiled and said, "I will help you with this matter. It will not only allow those stewards to continue to handle business for you, but also spit out the money they have swallowed. Just give me the list."

Yan Muan asked subconsciously, "What benefits do you want?"

"Please return to the palace and continue to help me manage the palace."

Yan Mu'an raised his eyebrows and immediately made a condition, "You will continue to support me in the future, and I can do whatever I want. Also, the palace has to spend your money, not mine."

"can."

Yong Chang agreed happily. He originally wanted to be tough and say that he would return the money he had used to her before, but his strength did not allow him to be so backbone.

He was so happy that Yan Mu'an felt a little uneasy. She never thought that the widowed king would fall in love with her after coming here twice. If he could fall in love with her, he should have fallen in love with the silly eldest sister long ago. Can he wait until now?
Only interests are the most reliable.

"The prince is so happy, I can't help but express it."

Yongchang thought that Yan Muan was going to give him money, and was already struggling with the question of whether to give him money or not. The main reason was that Southern Qi had to pay tribute to the Heavenly Saint every year, and the national treasury did not have much money at all. If he wanted to protect himself or grow stronger, he had to leave. No money is required.

He was indeed a little tight-lipped, but he couldn't just take the princess' money like this.

"How does the princess want to express it?"

"I'll give you some change, of course."

Could Yan Muan not know that he had no money?

How could a suzerain country make a subject country too wealthy?
How can a widowed king with no money train his troops?

How to rebel?

But she was asked to pay for it, but she was unwilling.

"Aren't we going to hold an ice sculpture exhibition? I can use this to raise some money for the prince."

[The courtiers of Southern Qi are still very wealthy. 】

Yong Chang did not continue to ask, "Thank you so much, Princess. If you need my cooperation, Princess can speak at any time."

The matter was settled happily. As for how Yongchang would help get the money back and let the steward continue to work hard, Yan Muan still didn't know.
