royal girl

Chapter 317 Shocked
Ning Prince's mansion shrouded in the night was brightly lit in the study room in the front yard. Duke Xin Guo and others were discussing in secret. Ji Fuyan's thick eyebrows were furrowed, and there was an abacus next to him clattering, and everyone's expressions were a little dignified.

Duke Xin's expression was also very bad. He didn't agree with King Ning's way of filling in the money, but he couldn't handle it, so he was a little passive and sabotaged, sitting there with a sullen face, feeling very anxious.

The rest of the staff did not dare to show their air, and they were busy with the work at hand.

"I figured it out." The sound of the abacus stopped, and the person who made the calculation stood up and saluted Ji Fuyan, "My lord, there are more than 150 million silver in the book, but only half of it can be used." It is impossible for a businessman to remove all the money on the books by leaving the money for emergency.

"How could it be so small?" King Ning looked at the accountant and asked in surprise.

The accountant was a little cramped, and replied cautiously: "Going back to the prince, because of Fengyi Bank's attack on Juyi, Juyi took away a large amount of money for emergency, that's why this happened, if it wasn't for the Well, even if the prince wants to embezzle 200 million taels, there is no problem."

Ji Fuyan stared at the accountant, and then his eyes fell on Xin Guogong.

Lord Xin Guo smiled unnaturally, looked at Ji Fuyan and said: "This is true. Fengyi did cause Juyi to lose a lot of money before, and Juyi is going to reopen. It takes a lot of silver, so it’s good to have this amount.”

The rest of the people didn't dare to show their arrogance. The government of Xinguo has a lot of money, so of course it is certain that there is not only such a small amount of money turnover.Obviously Duke Xin didn't want King Ning to use his money to subsidize the household department for King Jing's war, so he did this.King Ning thought he knew it, but Xin Guogong was clean on the books, and he couldn't do anything for a while.

Seeing that Ji Fuyan was silent, Lord Xin Guo frowned and continued: "My lord, to say something that is not pleasant, the military expenditure for war is a headache for the imperial court, so there is no reason to put money from your own family into it. Now If the prince can come up with such a large amount of money, it is enough for the emperor to pay for it."

Ji Fuyan just smiled lightly when he heard what Duke Xin said, "Uncle, I am the one who is in charge of the household department now. Although Lord Luo is the Minister of the household department, everyone knows that Lord Luo has long since ignored the affairs. Now the court uses soldiers When I asked for money, but I can’t get it here, how do you let me get a foothold?” No matter what the reason is, as long as he can’t get the money, he is incompetent!When Luo Hongsheng was on errand, it was ten times and a hundred times more difficult than this. Even if the household department had no money, he could still do the job to satisfy the emperor. Why couldn't he do it when he was here?If it falls into the eyes of others, it means that I am useless as a prince. When the emperor uses money or the court uses money, if I can't get it out, that is incompetence!

Ji Fuyan's words made Duke Xin's face very ugly. Luo Hongsheng has been an official for so many years, and he has his way to get money to fill the hole. a copper plate.It is true that the prince is selfless in doing this, but it is the government of Xinguo who paid the money. It is already very difficult for the government of Xinguo to take out so much money all at once. Of course it is not impossible to give out more, but this is the case. Part of the industry needs to be moved.Isn't it a joke to ask him to pay out money to fight for Prince Jing?
"The money that old fox Luo Hongsheng was able to get out was borrowed, and we can follow suit." Xin Guogong still took a step back and sighed inwardly.

Ji Fuyan smiled, but there were more sharp edges and corners in that smile.After suppressing the anger in his heart for a long time, he said slowly with a calm expression, "Then uncle tell me where to borrow money?"

Duke Xin was stunned, now the salt affairs are under the management of King Jia, Dong Yunji is watching over the river transport, and the sea transport is Prince Jing's territory, and Luo Hongsheng borrowed from these places.However, Luo Hongsheng, an old fox, dismantled it by exchanging things from the court with others. Now that these places are in the hands of others, it is extremely difficult for them to do something.

There is nothing to borrow!
Duke Xin was also taken aback when he thought of this, and had nothing to answer for a moment.

Ji Fuyan waved his hand, "You all go back first, my lord be quiet."

The people in the room bowed and quietly retreated. In the end, only Xin Guogong, Fan Cheng and Jiang Kangping were left. He hesitated, and then he said to King Ning: "My lord, except for the sea transportation, river transportation and salt affairs. It’s not impossible for us to use our minds on coal and iron.”

Ji Fuyan pursed her lips and shook her head, then waved at Fan Cheng, "No!"

The other three looked at each other, and Mr. Xin Guo felt that this matter was feasible, but it was a bit difficult.Seeing that the prince's attitude is so firm, it is even more difficult to get his consent for this matter.

Jiang Kangping and Fan Cheng also felt a little helpless. Now that the prince only cares about the overall situation, the people below will inevitably be a little dissatisfied.To put it bluntly, everyone's allegiance to the prince is also for the future.Now that I haven't seen the future yet, but I want to put my own money into it first, others will naturally disagree.

"My lord, this is not a small matter after all, please think twice. Even if you can spend a lot of money this time, if you encounter such a thing next time, it will be a crime for you not to give up the money." Jiang Kangping persuaded .

The meaning of this sentence is actually easy to understand. For example, a rich man spends a sum of money for charity every year. Suddenly, he does not pay any money for a year, and others will call him rich and unkind.There is a person who does good deeds every year, every time, and suddenly one day he fails to do good deeds in one thing, and others will scold him.But if others have never done good deeds, even if they encounter troubles, they will not feel that this person should be scolded, but if a person who has always done good deeds suddenly fails to do good deeds, it is his sin.

This is a kind of moral kidnapping in disguise, and it is a kind of habitual thinking of people.Think that others should do it, and you are guilty of not doing it.

Jiang Kangping's words are not wrong at all, and his thinking is more thoughtful, especially since King Ning is now in charge of the money bag of the household department.This time King Ning took out the silver to fill in the military supplies. If there is another natural or man-made disaster next time, will King Ning still take the money?If you don't take it, people will say how could you get money out before, but this time there is no money?There is a precedent for everything. If you break this example, you will dig a big hole for yourself in the future. Unless you continue to maintain the original situation, otherwise, whatever you do will be wrong!
Why didn't Ji Fuyan know this truth, and he also knew that what he did was tantamount to drinking poison to quench his thirst, but what other methods did he have?Is it really going to work on coal and iron?If you do this, it may not be peaceful in the future.

"At the beginning, Luo Shangshu was able to keep the surface of the water without a trace. As long as we are careful, this matter will not be noticed. Even if it is discovered by the time, it is related to the war in the south after all, and the emperor will not be serious. It is a matter of urgency to convict the prince on this matter." Fan Cheng also said.

Lord Xinguo breathed a sigh of relief, this is really a bottomless pit, open this end, even if the mansion of Lord Xinguo has a rich family, it can't stand the toss.If it was King Ning who was on the battlefield, Duke Xinguo would not hesitate to go bankrupt, but for Prince Jing?

Forget it, he is not a good person.

"Let me think about it." Ji Fuyan rubbed his forehead wearily, telling them to leave.

Lord Xin Guo glanced at King Ning and walked away. Fan Cheng and Jiang Kangping also shook their heads and left.

The house was silent.

Ji Fuyan was standing in front of the window, the stars were shining outside, but his face was full of melancholy.

No matter when, people must succumb to reality.Just like now, even if he has the means to reach the sky, he is stumbling over the money.Most of the staff who follow him are talented but not rich, and the family has wealth, but they will not lose their foundation for such a thing. In fact, he can understand it, but... I feel a little sad in my heart.

He didn't realize how important money was until now.

Naturally, Huiyu didn't know about the disputes in King Ning's mansion. Although she didn't know, she could guess that if King Ning really wanted to contribute money by himself, Lord Xin Guo would definitely not agree.

The actions of Duke Xinguo's mansion are actually more of a trick played by Duke Xinguo to calm the king's heart first.It's not that Duke Xinguo's government can't take out so much money, it's that they don't want to take it at all.If this matter were changed to Huiyu, Huiyu would definitely not spend millions of taels of silver to pave the way for his enemies for King Ning himself.Of course, Huiyu couldn't guarantee whether Ji Qiyu would do this, but she wouldn't.Moreover, this matter has obvious sequelae, that is, if one person does a good deed, then there will be countless good deeds waiting for you later, if you don’t do it?Then you are wrong!
This is the most headache.

She remembered an incident when she was in college in her previous life. There was a girl in the same dormitory who grew up spoiled and could not do a little housework. She often acted like a baby and asked others to help her with work in the same dormitory.Although Huiyu comes from a good background, her family education is very strict. You can do many things but you can't, and you can't lose the family's face. So even though she has a deep background, she still has basic life skills.Huiyu naturally wouldn't do anything for that girl, but she wouldn't let others do it for her either.The girl on the upper bunk of the sister's paper is a soft-hearted girl, often unable to withstand the pleadings of the sister's paper, she will help her wash clothes, cook meals, provide hot water and so on.Later, this girl quarreled with another girl in their dormitory and moved out of their dormitory. As a result, the girl actually asked the girl who had moved away to continue to help her with laundry, food and water.That girl moved to live on the next floor, and naturally she refused to cross the floor every day to give her back as a bully, so the girl went around crying and complaining that the girl bullied her, saying that she was being bullied at home. She grew up pampered and didn't know how to do anything. The girl got used to taking care of her after a few years, but all of a sudden she was ignored because she was selfish and had no sympathy.Because the girl who was crying was beautiful, soft, cute and could act coquettishly, so many people in the dormitory believed it was true when they heard about it, and some even went to the dormitory of the girl who had moved out to scold others.

In fact, Huiyu thought about it later, maybe even that girl was tired of the girl's unreasonable demands, but she was too embarrassed to refuse, so she simply took advantage of the quarrel and moved away.Who knew that people would be relentlessly collecting debts just like this? This is a kind of inertial psychology. Huiyu saw it clearly at the beginning, but she never cared about being nosy, not to mention that one was willing to beat the other and the other was willing to suffer. It's just a responsibility.

That girl also acted like a baby in front of her and asked her to help, but she directly refused, so the reason why the relationship between the two of them in the same dormitory was not good.

King Ning is also in such an embarrassing situation now. He intends to help, but he has to face the endless problems that follow.Once a person is labeled, it is not easy to remove it. An old fox like Xin Guogong will definitely not engage in such a loss-making business. This is the opportunity Huiyu has to wait for.

Once the household department has no money to support and is in trouble, the Fengyi Club will donate millions of taels of silver when the country is in crisis. An extremely dazzling light on the upper level.This layer of light will become the talisman of Fengyi clubhouse. It will not be easy for Mr. Xin Guogong to touch Fengyi clubhouse in the future, at least he dare not make trouble with Fengyi blatantly and suppress Fengyi’s conscience of patriotism and love for the people. Merchants will definitely be poked in the back and bring a negative image.

Huiyu was willing to spend the money for Ji Qiyu, but you didn't want to take advantage of King Ning's family for nothing, so she thought of this trick.

When the millions of dollars are thrown out, Fengyi Club's reputation will be improved to a higher level, and the label of patriotism and people will be affixed, then the opening of Fengyi Club will definitely be an extremely grand occasion.Wilmar's membership card will also be more difficult to obtain, and those who can enter the Wilmar clubhouse will naturally feel more face because of Wilmar's good reputation.When Wilmar becomes a symbol of high society, a threshold, all businesses under Wilmar's name will become smoother and smoother in the future.

People have a herd mentality. If everyone thinks something is good, it must be good.If you feel bad, then you have a problem.

Although this is ugly, it is a real phenomenon.

After Wu Boyi returned to the club, although he had doubts in his heart why the princess refused to let him do something, he didn't dare to ask.But now he understands that the events of the past few days are like a dream. Fengyi Club donated millions of taels of silver to support the suppression of the bandits, which relieved the urgent need of the treasury. For a while, Fengyi Club became the hottest area in Kyoto. In the past few days, people who have been holding a lot of money to apply for membership cards are almost breaking the threshold.He never knew that business could be done like this. He has been managing the outside industry for Duke Ding for so many years, but he has never seen such a method as the princess.

Millions of taels of silver were thrown out without batting an eyelid, but what followed was that Fengyi became a merchant that the court attached great importance to, and even intended to develop Fengyi to become an imperial merchant.The princess directly instructed to refuse this matter. Although he felt it was a pity, he still politely refused.The name of Huangshang is shining brightly, but the same risks are also great, and there are many dangers.Fengyi has not yet gained a firm foothold, and indeed needs to be cautious. As long as it has the name of patriotism and love for the people, many things are actually very convenient.

Fengyi seems to have changed overnight.

Originally, Fengyi Bank had broken the rules in the industry, and Juyi was preparing to have an in-depth discussion with Fengyi on this matter in conjunction with other big banks.After all, Fengyi was the first person to break the rules, which damaged the interests of the bank, and those who broke the rules would naturally be punished.Everyone knows this, and Huiyu naturally knows it too.Fengyi's foundation is not stable now. If Juyi really cooperates with other banks to control Fengyi in terms of industry rules, she will still be very passive.But now the crisis is gone. Fengyi is a conscientious merchant that is appreciated even by the imperial court, and this policy of benefiting the people with deposits and interest has been highly appreciated by the imperial court. The imperial court has expressed its support and appreciation. How dare they Crusade against Fengyi?

Wu Boyi slowly recollected, feeling really dissatisfied.

This step by step, the concubine's calculations are just right, which is really admirable.

Suddenly, he remembered what he said to him when he was sent by the prince. The prince warned him not to be clever, and he would do what the princess told him.

To be honest, he was unconvinced at the time. After all, the princess is the wife of the inner house, how could she know these ways of doing business, but now he is covered in cold sweat. Fortunately, he listened to the words of the eldest son, otherwise... he would not even dare to think about it .

"It's so hard to find the membership card of Fengyi club now, I'm so cheeky to ask you for it." Yan Yibai said with a smile, "Fei Ling and Ru Niang just thought that the club was covered by our Duke's mansion. Yes, this is all about asking me if I can get a membership card. I dare not answer, so I can only ask you."

Huiyu smiled helplessly. Fengyi was her problem and she didn't want more people to know about it. With Wu Boyi's identity revealed, Dingguo's mansion is now rising because of Fengyi. I thought that Fengyi belonged to the government of Dingguo.

"I heard that Eldest Uncle was asked by the Emperor to enter the palace?" Huiyu was more concerned about this. If the Eldest Master told the truth, she would be in trouble.Because I didn't expect the emperor to hear about this before, and he even called the old man into the palace to ask about it. On this point, Huiyu didn't discuss with Dong Yuncheng, and he didn't know how the old man answered.That's why she posted a post to Yan Yibai asking her to come and ask, and she was really worried. "I've already prepared the cards for Fei Ling and Ru Niang, and I'm waiting for my sister-in-law to come." After speaking, I couldn't help laughing.

Yan Yibai didn't really come to ask for a card. He didn't expect Huiyu to prepare for it. This feeling of caring about his family is still very warm.Thank you for the two first, and then said with a smile: "I know you must want to ask about this matter, don't worry, my father-in-law tacitly tacitly agreed in front of the emperor that the Fengyi Club has a relationship with Dingguo's mansion."

Huiyu was really relieved now, no one knew the emperor's narrow-mindedness and ruthlessness better than her.If he knew that this clubhouse had something to do with her, who knew what he would do.At that time, the main reason was that the emperor did not expect that the emperor would call the elder into the palace to inquire about this matter. Everyone did not reach a tacit agreement, so they were particularly worried.

I didn't expect the Elder Master to take this matter on his shoulders. According to Huiyu's usual impression, the Elder Master's behavior is indeed a bit surprising.

"Uncle has been involved, I didn't expect it to be like this." Huiyu said.

"The whole family doesn't need to see outsiders." Yan Yibai said very sincerely, everyone is really on the same boat now, if something happens to Princess Jing, Duke Dingguo will definitely suffer as well.After all, the concubine is gone, so Prince Jing can continue her marriage, but Dingguo's mansion has no unmarried girl to continue her marriage.Remembering that this sentence was said by her husband to persuade her father-in-law, she found it so funny.Father-in-law is actually a very good person, but like Mrs. Tai in many places, sometimes the first thing that comes to mind is the interests of Dingguo's government.But her husband is even more powerful, and the words of persuasion hit the nail on the head.

Of course Huiyu didn't know Dong Yuncheng's words, if she knew, she would probably put on a blank face, not knowing what expression to respond to better.

"When do you plan to open Fengyi?" Yan Yibai asked, "Who do you want to invite to come, are you prepared?"

Huiyu was slightly taken aback, and after thinking for a while, he said, "There is no rush to open the business, I can't come forward."

Yan Yibai nodded, of course he couldn't show up, even if he came and didn't leave, Huiyu couldn't show up either.But if you want to go, it's not impossible, after all, the outside world now thinks that this shop belongs to Dingguo's government, and it's right to support her mother's family.

Huiyu actually wanted to wait until the good news came from Ji Qiyu to open for business, and double happiness would be better.

But, at this moment, will Ji Qiyu look at the 100 million taels and the cold military uniform and think of her in the capital?

I have to say that Huiyu and Ji Qiyu really have a good understanding. At this time, Ji Qiyu was staring at the piles of cotton clothes in a daze, and Su Wang was standing next to him with a gloomy face, pursing the corners of his lips, holding the It was the letter I received from home.
