Chapter 202 Lack of Money
Inside Yongfu Palace.

Princess Danyang was walking back and forth anxiously in the room, while several palace maids and eunuchs were standing far away, looking up at her from time to time, all of them were panic-stricken.

Outside the door, a little eunuch ran in hastily, and everyone followed him as if looking forward to a savior.

"Back... back to the princess, Commander Guan sent someone to remind me, what should I do?"

"What! Here again?" Princess Danyang frowned, "Didn't he just send someone to remind you an hour ago?"

The little eunuch didn't dare to speak, Princess Danyang glared at him angrily, then scratched her head and walked back and forth, raising her finger to give orders to the little eunuch.

"Go, tell him, I, Princess Danyang, keep what I say, and I will never rely on his little money!"

The little eunuch looked embarrassed, "But..."

"But what? Say something quickly!" Princess Danyang seemed a little impatient.

She did not expect that when Guan Shijie was on duty that day, she boasted that she would compensate him for his losses and all the medical expenses of the injured Imperial Forest Army, but when Guan Shijie came over with the thick bill in person, she couldn't help it. shocked.

That's right!It's a bill, not a bill.

She patiently flipped through the densely packed ledger several times, but she really didn't see any problems.

The medicines used here are all good medicines, expensive must be inevitable, some of the scarce medicinal materials have to be collected in the deep mountains and old forests, so you must hire people to collect them, and hiring people to collect them will cost money, right? There is nothing wrong with it. If the person who collects the medicine is injured again, he has to pay for a little medical expenses. This is naturally human nature.

Counting such a large list, the cost of blindly taking the medicine is quite a lot. The key point is that he can't stop taking the medicine for a while. The doctor said that he would have to take it for three full months.

Of course, this is only one of them.

The guards cannot be on duty for recuperation, but because it is a work-related injury, the salary is paid as usual during the sick period, and it is three times the normal salary.

Guan Shijie specially explained in the account book that this is his newly established welfare policy for the Imperial Forest Army. If the guards who were injured on duty were not treated so favorably, who would dare to sacrifice their lives in the future?

If a guard was injured and couldn't be on duty, another person would naturally have to make up for it. Then the person who made up the guard would also have to pay his salary, which must be a big account.

Princess Danyang didn't think there was any problem after watching it.

There are many such small accounts, and I wrote a thick book, but when I saw the final total, Princess Danyang couldn't believe her eyes.

She deliberately asked someone to find an abacus to calculate, but after several times of calculation, the string of numbers was 880 taels.

Well, since Guan Shijie's bills are written so clearly, she doesn't bother to haggle with him, it's just money, just give it to him.

The emperor's daughter is still short of these tens of thousands of taels of silver?joke!
But what's funny is that she really can't come up with so much money.

She has lived such a long life, she has never used money, and rewarding people is only a matter of her words. The money is usually taken care of by the court ladies and eunuchs. In fact, she does not know how much money she has, let alone think about it. But there will be times when I can't come up with money.

Guan Shijie stared at him covetously from the side, as if he was afraid that she would renege on her debts, which made Princess Danyang very angry.

Guan Shijie sent Guan Shijie away in a few words, and said that she would give her two days' grace, and when she got it all together, he would send it to him directly. Guan Shijie was afraid that she would renege on the debt, so he asked her to make a written receipt.

Seeing that the two-day deadline was up, and there was no news from Qian Zi, she was so anxious that several pimples appeared on her forehead.

The little eunuch looked terrified, "Commander Guan said, if you really can't afford that much money, don't make things too difficult for yourself, he can give you a half discount, but the money must be delivered before this evening."

"What?" Princess Danyang stared at the little eunuch kneeling on the ground as if she had heard some terrible joke.

"Is he looking down on me? Mere tens of thousands of taels of silver will embarrass this princess? Go back and tell him, I will give him a half discount, and let him give me another two days."

The little eunuch went there in fear.

The few maids standing by the door stood with their heads bowed and shoulders shrunk, not daring to say a word, for fear that if they opened their mouths, they would be whipped.
