Chapter 47 | The prince who is short of money
The grain planting experiment was carried out in an orderly manner, but the food cycle was relatively long, Yuan Shiyi mobilized a group of people who planted vegetables, the vegetable planting cycle was short, easy to experiment, the vegetables that were originally about a month, two or three days later, they matured, after a month or so, the vegetables cultivated a new variety, which was no different from the experiment, and then carried out the second batch of experiments, the new varieties rose a step, and the experimental results were consistent with the normal experimental results.
In this way, the catalytic growth of the kilometer fruit has been verified, except for harmful substances, nothing else has changed, so Yuan Shiyi led everyone to focus on growing grain, and the newly built vegetable experimental abutment was handed over to experienced people to manage, and Yuan Shiyi only proposed a plan.
Looking at the orderly grain planting experiment, Qingyun and Li Ruoxuan began to discuss other matters, Dongying has been back in the palace for a while, and the relationship with everyone has eased a lot.
After all, they grew up together in the palace, Qingyun took the initiative to let her come back, and the rest of the people couldn't have any objections, plus Qi Yu's proposal, he sent a lot of things, and finally let the old people in the palace let go of their prejudices, but there were still a small number of people who didn't deal with her, such as Yuan Shiyi and Li Ruoxuan.
Yuan Shiyi is like this to Dongying because of the previous conflict, but Li Ruoxuan has always been on guard against Dongying, vigilant that she hinders Qingyun's plan.
These days, the palace has recruited a lot of personnel, and Li Ruoxuan is more tired than Yuan Shiyi, because she has to find out who Qingyun can be with among these people, and the conversation must also be cautious, if you don't pay attention to it a little, let people perceive Qingyun's ultimate purpose, I'm afraid that the days of Yunwangfu will come to an end, and now is not the time.
At this time, Li Ruoxuan, Zhu Qingqing, and Yan Xiaohuan were discussing in Qingyun's room, and the three of them are now Qingyun's most loyal followers, especially Zhu Qingqing and Yan Xiaohuan, both of whom are very clear about the history of the Terran and have always hoped that the Terran can return to the top.
"Your Highness, I see that Madame has been in a good mood recently, presumably the cultivation of new varieties is not far away, if the biggest problem of the human race can be solved, Your Highness does not have to worry about the rear, I think we should plan the rest of the matter. ”
Yan Xiaohuan, the storyteller who spoke first, since Qingyun decided on her, she would go to the palace every day to sit down, among all of them, I am afraid that she is the only one who works hardest, and wonderful stories are told from her mouth, passed on to the world, and their emotions are mentioned little by little.
Qingyun reached out to hold her jade hand, and his fingers gently swiped on the back of her hand, "These days, you are the luckiest one, but your strength alone is limited after all, you can only tell stories in the teahouse, and ordinary people can't hear your voice." ”
Yan Xiaohuan shook his head slightly, "Your Highness, whoever is in the hands of the sovereignty is the master, no one can escape the shackles of fate, the teahouses are all people with status and prestige in the upper class, they have power in their hands, they can decide the fate of many people, let the upper class return to their hearts first, I don't think it's inappropriate."
As for the common people, I don't have time to take care of them at the moment, and I can only think about it after convincing the upper echelons in the future. ”
At this time, Zhu Qingqing interjected, "There is nothing wrong with His Highness's worries, Xiaohuan, I think you might as well put these down first, choose some qualified apprentices to come out, and let them wander among the people." ”
Yan Xiaohuan thought for a moment and nodded, "That's fine, but if you want to tell the story to move people's hearts, it's not easy." ”
"Poof. Zhu Qingqing smiled, "If you ask them all to be the same as you, it will naturally not be easy, but it's okay to talk about ordinary things, but you don't need to say it so touching, everyone has a measure in their hearts, we say too much about the good, and the bad will naturally stay away." ”
At this time, someone knocked on the door, several people immediately stopped talking, Li Ruoxuan went to open the door, the person who came was Xi Xiaoyue, the housekeeper of Yunwangfu, she was in charge of the expenses of the entire palace, generally she rarely took the initiative to find Qingyun, but now she took the initiative to find it, Qingyun also had a general guess in her heart.
Because the recent recruitment of Yunwang Mansion has been built and acquired, and other things, the expenditure must be not small, "Sister Xiaoyue, is there something wrong?" With a sad face, isn't someone annoying you?"
Xi Xiaoyue glanced at Qingyun, "You obviously know what I want to say, the house is so expensive, I'm afraid you want others to see the joke." ”
Qingyun stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder and sighed, "Sister Xiaoyue, except for Amber, Liuli, and Dongying, you are the person who has been in the palace for the longest time, and the three of them can't see clearly, but I know that you are the one who knows me best, and there are some things I have to do." ”
"I didn't say that you won't be allowed to do this, but you also have to control your expenses, you see that the messy expenses during this period have exceeded the expenses of the palace for several years, and the official family gives so much every month.
Originally, I thought that when you got married, the palace didn't need to be so frugal, but now it seems that not only must you be thrifty, but also be able to make money, I came to tell you this, and you continue to talk about things. ”
After saying that, Xi Xiaoyue turned around and left, and closed the door when she left, while Qingyun thought about it, Xi Xiaoyue didn't mention the specific expenses, but it must still be within the scope of control, but if it continues like this, I'm afraid there will be problems, so she came to remind her in advance.
The three women looked at each other, Zhu Qingqing took the lead in opening her mouth and gave a suggestion: "Your Highness, Mrs. is at a critical juncture at this stage, and she must not stop, and now there are two plans: one is to select a few outstanding women from among the women in the internal designation, and go out to do business. ”
The palace can't directly participate in the operation, and the official family gives a lot of monthly payments, so if you say that you are short of money in this case, it will definitely make people laugh, so the prestige of the Yunwang Mansion a few days ago will be discounted.
"Your Highness has a third option. Yan Xiaohuan took over the conversation, paused, and continued: "After the wedding, I chose more than 300 people, and I have no worries about food and clothing since then. ”
In order to encourage candidates to choose more at the wedding, the official family has also come up with some plans, such as 1 times the monthly payment for 200 drafts, 2.5 times for 300 drafts, and 4 times for monthly payments over 500.
There are many candidates, but not all of them live in the palace, but side concubines, attached concubines, and concubines are ...... The number of places will be increased as a result, and the palace will probably be rebuilt or relocated as a result, and the most important original order will definitely be increased as a result.
Yan Xiaohuan said this, obviously she had just calculated the use of the palace, but after all, she was not in charge of the money, so there must be some discrepancies.
Zhu Qingqing shook his head, not quite agreeing with this matter, "If we have so many suitable candidates in our hearts now, it doesn't matter, it's just that it will hurt Your Highness, but now there are not many people who are really in our hands." ”
Seeing that Qingyun was a little hesitant in her heart, Li Ruoxuan also opened her mouth, "Your Highness, the city lord also intends to recommend a merchant girl. ”
By saying so, she was directly rejecting the third suggestion.
The merchant girl is too shrewd, everything will be calculated, in order to achieve the greatest benefit, all the princes who have married the merchant girls, there are problems, the palace is chaotic for a while, Qingyun is not afraid, the main thing is that what he is planning is too big, in case the merchant girl has two hearts, I am afraid that it will bring disaster to the palace.
Qingyun is not worried about himself, after all, he is one of the few male kings, and the big deal is to stay in the gestation room for a lifetime, but what about the countless people in the palace?
The three of them didn't speak anymore, quietly waiting for Qingyun to think about it, and after a long time, Qingyun asked, "Do you all think it's feasible to choose a businesswoman?"
Zhu Qingqing shook his head, "It's not all right, the two richest people in the Divine Blessing Country at the moment, Qi Yu and Qi Xiuwan are definitely the best among the merchant girls, Qi Xiuwan I don't think there's a big problem, but I can't see through Qi Yu." ”
Li Ruoxuan also interjected: "Your Highness, the merchant girl recommended by the city lord is Qi Xiuwan, I can't ignore the recommendation of others, but the recommendation of the city lord must be reassuring." ”
Rubbing his head, Qingyun also thought about the two, at that time, when he was considering the assistance of the think tank, he could never find a suitable person, so he considered the two, but they were in the last position, "The two seem to be mortal enemies." ”
The three of them nodded, and Yan Xiaohuan said: "The mother of the two is a sister, in order to treat the old man, she had to engage in business, one business jade jewelry, one business cloth clothing, but the two shops developed from the daughters of the two, and finally became the two richest people in the Divine Blessed Country."
has been competing with each other since he was a child, and even more so when he grows up, the relationship is getting worse and worse, if it comes to wealth, Qi Yu is three times that of Qi Xiuwan. If His Royal Highness wants to choose between these two, I recommend Qi Xiuwan like the city lord. ”
Qingyun frowned, and let go after a moment, "Let me think about this matter again, skip it for the time being, and continue to discuss other things." ”
Zhu Qingqing and Yan Xiaohuan shook their heads at the same time, and Li Ruoxuan also spoke, "Your Highness, I am worried today, and it is not appropriate to discuss other things." ”
The two got up to say goodbye, and when they were about to arrive at the door, Zhu Qingqing turned around again, "Your Highness, the inner government is uneasy, and foreign affairs are uncertain, so it is okay to find a balance point, but now this person's heart is fluctuating, there is no common support point, and it is difficult to control." ”
After speaking, the two of them opened the door and left, Qingyun sat silently on the chair, and Li Ruoxuan on the side continued to accompany him.
Thinking about Zhu Qingqing's words when he left, the most difficult thing to control at the moment was people's hearts.
"I don't have to follow, I'll go around the hospital myself. ”
Qingyun got up and went out, Li Ruoxuan was very obedient and did not follow, and returned to the right room, the backyard is now noisy, Qingyun went to the front yard, and when he looked up, Dongying not far away was looking at him calmly, since she returned home, she hadn't communicated much.
From a distance, Dongying bowed, and then walked towards Qingyun, "Your Highness is now estranged from me. ”
Raising his hand to caress her hair, "I have never been distant from you, everything is worrying, because of your previous mistakes, you should also take a good walk with the sisters in Fuzhong first." ”
Dongying smiled slightly, "The sisters in the house have all moved, and only Madame and Xiaoxuan can't communicate." ”
In this regard, it was impossible for Qingyun to forcibly let a few people put down the mustard, Dongying grabbed Qingyun's hand and let it stick it on his face, as if he wanted to feel Qingyun's body temperature, and then gently spit out a sentence.
"Your Highness, Qi Yu wants to marry into the Yunwang Mansion with half of the family property as a gift list. ”
