Chapter 139: A Woman's Independence

Princess Celestia led her guards to the door of the bank, which was located in the most prominent part of the street, and its opulence stood out among the many shops.

Walking to the bank, many guys were busy behind the counter. Seeing the eldest princess and others coming in, a young man hurriedly ran over to say hello: "This young lady, please, what business do you want to do?" ”

"What is your business?" Princess Celestia is very curious about banks, she has never seen a transaction called a bank before, and she wants to know what banks do.

"We can exchange silver for silver dollars, and we can also exchange silver dollars for silver, but there is a fee for some fees, and we have also introduced a new security army banknote, which is similar to the silver notes in other places, and it is more convenient to use, and any bank we open can exchange paper money for silver, and it only charges a small fee." The guy enthusiastically introduced the bank's business to Princess Celestia.

"What are silver dollars and banknotes?" The new term in the man's mouth confused Princess Celestia.

"This is a silver dollar, this is a paper money" The guy saw that she didn't understand, and took out the samples and pointed them out to her one by one.

The eldest princess was playing with the silver dollar, and when she saw the big-headed figure on it, she felt quite comfortable, so she asked, "Who is this person painted on it?" ”

"This is our handsome Zhang Chu, and so is this." The guy said, pointing to the banknote next to him.

Zhang Chu looks like this, although the eldest princess has seen Zhang Chu once, but at that time, Zhang Chu was wrapped in armor like an iron bucket, wearing an iron helmet on his head, and his face was covered with sweat and mud, and the eldest princess really didn't see what he looked like.

"Can you exchange these pieces of paper?" Princess Celestia was a little uneasy about the small piece of paper in front of her.

"Yes, all places from Fugu to Yanchang can be used to buy things, even if you go to Nanjing, we have a semicolon there and can also exchange it for silver for you." The guy tried to make the scope of the bank as big as possible. But it's not a lie.

Looking at the silver dollar, it looks very exquisite, and the banknote is like a beautiful little picture, and the eldest princess likes it very much. Let the guard take out some money and exchange it, she will go back to study this new gadget that Zhang Chu has made.

"Can I meet Miss Yue?" Princess Celestia has not forgotten the purpose of this trip.

"This, please tell me your identity, and I'll give you a briefing to see if Miss Yue is free." Seeing that the eldest princess was dressed luxuriously and had four guard-like retinues, the guy knew that she was not an ordinary person, so he didn't directly refuse, and decided to report to Boss Yue.

"I am the eldest princess of the Chahar tribe of the steppe, Uliangha, and I passed by here today to visit." The eldest princess was a little unhappy, when she wanted to see whom, it depended on whether the other party had time.

"Okay, wait a minute." After saying that, the man asked the steward to go inside.

Soon the guy came back and said to the eldest princess: "Please come here, Boss Yue, please come over." After speaking, he took the eldest princess and the others and walked inside.

Yue Yue was also surprised why this eldest princess suddenly arrived in Fugu, and she wanted to see her directly, so she immediately sent someone to inform Zhang Chu, and then went to the door to greet the eldest princess to see what her purpose was.

Now most of the people who trade with the security army in Fugu are Mongolian tribes, and the two sides are still in a state of peace, and there has been no conflict, but it is also very strange for the eldest princess to come to the door directly.

The eldest princess walked in under the leadership of the guys, and the guards stayed outside the door, only then did Yue Yue realize that the eldest princess was just a little girl of fourteen or fifteen years old.

After sitting down, the young man served tea, neither of them spoke, the eldest princess looked around at the interior layout, Yue Yue looked at her quietly and waited for her to finish.

The eldest princess felt Yue Yue's gaze, sat up straight and said, "I'm sorry to take the liberty of visiting and disturbing you." ”

"You're welcome, the eldest princess is our guest when she arrives in Fugu, and we should receive it, I don't know if the eldest princess came to the bank to handle business or have other things?" Yue Yue tested her intentions.

"I came with the caravan, and I heard that my sister happened to come here to visit." The eldest princess was also observing the woman in front of her, she saw that Yue Yue was not very old, and she looked petite and delicate, it was this girl who was in charge of the money of the security army, could it be spread by the people.

"The eldest princess can come to me if she encounters something about money in business, the silver dollars and banknotes issued by our bank are very convenient to use, and people who do business in Fugu like to use them." Since she didn't know the meaning of the eldest princess, Yue Yue decided to advertise.

"Thank you then, I wonder if you can take me to meet your handsome Zhang Chu?"

"It would be necessary to ask him if he had time." Yue Yue thought that it was better for Zhang Chu to decide all this.

Yue Yue called a guy in and sent him to ask Zhang Chu, and after the guy left, the two sat there chatting and chatting, saying some anecdotes about the customs and customs, and avoiding talking about substantive issues.

From time to time, a guy came in with a document for Yue Yue to review, and Yue Yue had to stop talking with the eldest princess, and sign for instructions after reading it.

Princess Celestia looked at her busy appearance and believed that the woman in front of her was indeed in control of the security army's finances. When Yue Yue was reading the documents, the eldest princess sat there quietly thinking, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad in her heart, Mongolian women looked more open than Han people, less bound by etiquette and religion, but they had no social status, they were just a part of a man's property, and even after her husband died, she would be inherited by the heir. Nobles like the eldest princess must always be ready to make sacrifices for the interests of the tribe and send them out to marry other political forces, and no one cares about the life after marriage.

The eldest princess dreams of becoming an independent woman, becoming a political strong woman like San Niangzi, unifying all Mongolian tribes with his brother Lin Dan Khan, and recreating the past glory of the Mongols, but in reality, it is difficult for girls to participate in the politics of Mongolian tribes, and their own fate cannot be controlled by themselves.

The guy sent out soon returned, and Zhang Chu said that he couldn't see the eldest princess now because of something, and asked the eldest princess if she could go to Yue Yue's house for lunch together at noon.

Of course, the eldest princess was willing, Mongolian men and women are not so particular about each other, and eating together is a good opportunity for in-depth conversation, so she agreed. Then he sent his own guards back to the inn to inform Gui Yingcha, so that he would not be able to see anyone looking around.

Yue Yue saw that the time was not early, so she got off work early and took the eldest princess back to her residence. The eldest princess was full of curiosity about Yue Yue's everything, and looked at Yue Yue's residence inside and out, this was not the imagined high-gate compound, and the interior furnishings were also very simple and simple.

In the end, the eldest princess couldn't help but ask: "You handsome don't buy you a bigger house, is it because he has too many women to buy?" ”

Yue Yue was a little embarrassed by this question, and after a pause, he said: "No, I like this, I can afford to buy a house with my own salary, and there are only two women in Dashuai." ”

"It's only two women, my brother has eight fortunes, by the way, you earn your own salary to buy a house, and you don't need your man's money?" Princess Celestia's focus shifted to the state of the woman she cared about.

"Yes, Dashuai said that if a woman wants to be independent, she must be financially independent first, and the women who come out to work in our Fugu have their own salaries, which will gradually reduce their dependence on men." Yue Yue replied quietly.

"Economic independence, economic independence." Princess Celestia muttered silently, although he didn't understand what economy meant, he probably knew that this sentence meant that women should have their own money.

Yue Yue instructed the cook at home to prepare a sumptuous meal for guests at noon, and the cook went down to prepare it. After arriving in Fugu, Yue Yue was too busy with work, so Yue Yue had to find a cook and servants, but he also lost the fun of cooking for Zhang Chu himself.

After the eldest princess finished her visit, she waited for Zhang Chu in the living room with Yue Yue, and after a long time, she heard the greetings and answers of the servants at the door, and Zhang Chu walked in from outside.

The eldest princess saw Zhang Chu again, more intuitive than on the coin. (To be continued.) )
