Chapter Forty-Nine: A Great Family, a Great Cause

Before Mu Qingqi didn't take care of the house, he really didn't know that Ye Fu had such a big business. The old ledger has been piled up, there is a treasury as much, and the new ledger has hundreds of books that have not yet been processed, which is really nerve-wracking.

Mu Qingqi was originally faced with the melancholy and sadness of parting, and the sadness of reluctance, but now his brain is filled with full account book numbers, and when people get busy, they really have less time to miss.

"Seventh uncle, how should the accounts of these fields be calculated?" Mu Qingqi asked an old man with a serious face.

Everyone called him Uncle Seven, and Mu Qingqi followed suit, he was the old housekeeper in the house, and now he was handing over all the account books he had in hand. Part of it is responsible for the new housekeeper, that is, the adopted son he picked up from the outside on Monday and Friday, and more according to the orders of the prince, it is handed over to the princess to manage.

The seventh uncle looked at the account book and explained: "This is an old adult account, and it is really difficult to deal with." The land was rented to a nearby farmer at a fair price, but the farmer was rented to someone else at twice the price. It was still rented out in the name of the palace, and then the incident happened, and I planned to take back the right to use the land, but the group of people bit back that it was the prince who oppressed the peasants. In short, things are getting more and more complicated in the future, but our royal palace doesn't plan to suffer this loss, and finally reclaim the land. ”

"So, is it still profitable every year?" Mu Qingqi roughly understood, so he asked rhetorically.

"Yes, just forget it."

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Seven."

The seventh uncle replied politely: "What is there to thank for this, but the princess is tired to go and settle the accounts in person." ”

"Hehehehe, I'm fine, it's better to be busy. Besides, this doesn't also increase knowledge. ”

"It's a good thing to be studious, then the princess will come and ask the old man if she has something, maybe she can ask the old man's adopted son on Monday and Friday. That kid, who has followed me since he was a child, is proficient in calculating accounts and reading account books. "When Uncle Seven mentioned Monday and Friday, it was really a light of pride and pride.

"Okay, then Uncle Seven will go and have a good rest first, and Qingqi won't bother."

"Hehehehe, there is Princess Lao." For the new princess in the house, the seventh uncle himself is very happy, because Mu Qingqi has a good temperament and respects people.

Mu Qingqi was busy until noon, and it wasn't until the lunch was brought in that Mu Qingqi walked out of the pile of account books.

"Huh." Mu Qingqi stretched and yawned, and then sat down comfortably.

"Princess, but tired?" Mbutter asked with concern.

"I'm really tired, but I haven't been so busy for a long time, and it feels good to be busy." Mu Qingqi felt that he had a super appetite now, and he was probably busy.

"The princess eats more, these jobs are very brainless." Simbled behind Mu Qingqi, and on the premise of not hindering her from eating, he silently beat her back and pinched her shoulders in the back.

"Well, it's been a while since the prince left, but what news has come back?" Before Ye Fu left, he said that he would often send family letters back to Mu Qingqi, and this time has passed, where can the shadow of the family letter be seen.

He shook his head, "Maybe I'm too busy to write back, but no news is good news." ”

Mu Qingqi nodded, "That makes sense." ”

"By the way, Princess Xian asked someone to ask if you have free time recently, and she wants to invite you to Tianxian Villa."

Mu Qingqi was slightly stunned, who was Princess Xian, and then reacted, it turned out to be Su Luoluo, but she still didn't want to go, so she said to: "Oh, help me refuse, I don't have much energy these days, and I don't want to go out."

"Okay."

"Is there anything else you need to attend to these days?"

"There is nothing in the big matter, but there are always some high-ranking officials and wives who want to ask you out, but the people in the palace refuse all."

"I'm like this now, and I really don't go out when Ye Fu is not there, but you can help me return the salute to those ladies to show respect. lest we be annoyed by a bunch of people behind our backs before we start to make any moves. ”

"Yes."

"By the way, the gift should not be too expensive or too shabby, just decide according to the grade of each lady."

"Yes."

"Go get me a pen and paper." Mu Qingqi thought that since Ye Fu didn't send a letter, then she would send a letter over.

"Princess, wait a minute."

Mu Qingqi thought about it outside the window for a while, and then began to write: I haven't seen you for a long time, Qingqi misses it very much, I don't know if you are good? Everything in the family is safe and well, and I hope you don't worry. A thousand words turned into one sentence: I hope you will return as soon as possible.

"That's it, ugly is ugly, but as long as I write less, I can be less ugly, hahahahaha." Mu Qingqi looked at the crooked words on the letter, waited for the ink to dry, and put it into the envelope with satisfaction. He ordered the wax core again and sealed it in.

Mu Qingqi handed the letter to Boom and ordered, "Okay, Boom, help me send this to the northwest to the Night Master." ”

"Does the princess have anything else for her servants to bring over?"

"Forget it, just this letter, the border area is not as good as home, the environment is not good, the conditions are not good, if you bring food, it is too easy to spoil, and it should be a burden to bring too many clothes to the night master." Those Mu Qingqi thought about it, and finally felt that it was inappropriate, so they didn't take the initiative to let Murmur prepare.

"The princess can also send some hairpins, handkerchiefs and other women's things to the princess to express her lovesickness."

"Ahh

Mu Qingqi muttered and said, "I have to continue to read the account book in the afternoon, when you handle it for me first, and when it's time for dinner, I'll take a good look at it." ”

"Yes, but the princess must pay attention to her body and must not overwork, otherwise the princess will come back, but he will not let us slaves and maids go."

"Got it, okay, you go down first."

"Yes."

It's really troublesome and tiring to take care of this big business, but fortunately, Mu Qingqi doesn't hate this kind of thing, and he will use modern algorithms to quickly sort it out, and the efficiency is quite high.

Day by day, a lot of ledgers can also be solved.

"Princess, leave the rest to the little one." A young man who seemed to be visibly clever said.

"Well, then I'll trouble you, Monday and Friday."

"It's okay, these are troublesome old accounts, and I, an insider, will deal with them faster." Monday and Friday said around his head.

Mu Qingqi has been getting along with Monday and Friday for the past few days, and he also thinks that this young man is a manufacturable material, clever in his work, advanced and retreated, emotional intelligence is touching, and many ideas are also very creative.

"By the way, on Monday and Friday, there are so many fields, shops and deeds of sale in the palace, how did they manage it for so many years?" Mu Qingqi is quite curious about Ye Fu's way to get rich.

"Hehehehe, I didn't expect the princess to be curious about this. Speaking of which, that's really something, I heard my father say that the prince's father, that is, the former King of Zi, he left some wealth for our prince, not much. But the prince took it out with a pen to lend usury, and opened shops, all kinds of shops, restaurants, teahouses, pawnshops...... At that time, almost all of them were dabbled. Although the palace was poor and white at that time, but fortunately, the prince had a talent for business, as long as the money that our prince invested in, it was really a pen that was earned back at seven or eight times the speed and quantity. ”

"Ye Fu, will you still give usury?" Mu Qingqi was quite surprised by this.

"Hey, hey, that's the early years, but I don't have much to do with it now. That's what I overheard, and the princess is not allowed to say it to anyone. "Monday and Friday think this princess is good, so he told some little secrets he knows.

"Oh, but the talent for business is really enviable, and in a short period of time, he can get rich to this extent."

Monday Wu added: "After the prince made a fortune, the first thing that came to mind was not himself. Our royal government has a sum of money, which will be used to help the poor, or to help the disadvantaged in need. ”

Mu Qingqi nodded, she knew that Ye Fu was a good person in her heart, but the situation forced her, so she became a cold-blooded prince who was "unkind and murderous without blinking" in the eyes of most people.

"However, most of the expenses in the house are spent on raising people, not only in the major branches, but also on the slaves in this house."

"The price set by Ye Fu is quite fair, so this expenditure is a big price. It seems that the palace earns a lot and spends a lot, but fortunately, the speed of earning is much faster than the speed of spending, otherwise I would be a poor princess. ”

"Hahaha, the princess is too worried. The king's peerless talent will not let the princess live that kind of life. "Monday and Friday look very sure and worship the night master.

"Why do you worship Yafu so much?" Mu Qingqi asked casually out of curiosity.

"A person like the prince can't help but worship it. Ahh ”

Mu Qingqi couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Okay, this princess doesn't blame you, don't be so nervous." ”

Zhou Wu pretended to exaggerate and took two deep breaths, "Thank you, princess, there are a lot of adults, hahahahaha." ”

"Okay, don't be poor, let's share more things about this mansion with this princess."

"Okay, what does the princess want to know, the little one must know everything, and there is no end to it."

"Then tell me about the people in this house."

I guessed in advance on Monday and Friday that the princess might ask about big things in the house or about the prince, but this... Wanting to know the news of the people in the house made her feel surprised.

"Rong Xiao, oh, how can the princess be curious about the people in this mansion?"

"It's not like being a hostess, since you want to be a housekeeper, it's best to have points for everything."

"The princess is worthy of being a princess, and she is really as smart as the prince."

"Okay, less sycophancy, more practical."

"Well, the one who often cleans the lawn in the plum garden in our house is called Ah San......"
