Chapter 216 Poverty to the end

After returning, Cheng Ziyu put most of her mind into calculation.

In the last life, she could become Zhu Changan's real help, how could she be bad in this life?

Things didn't go the way she expected.

Wei Zhixian's plan fell through.

He gave up fighting for the royal footing.

He was just a local petty official, and for the sake of his future, he naturally wanted to keep the royal family at home. But for the sake of official reputation, he did not dare to renovate his own courtyard on a large scale, so as not to be suspected of improper use of money. But if it is not renovated, how will it be received? Wouldn't he lose more than he gained by making the royal family uncomfortable?

So, he made a good calculation, he thought that the Cheng family's wealth would not offend him, a royal in-law, and he would definitely wave out the silver taels. As long as the Cheng family takes the silver, he will go to the He family and other families to raise funds, so that he does not have to pay out of his own pocket, and everything can go well, killing two birds with one stone!

However, the Cheng family refused. And after hearing that the Cheng family only gave three hundred taels, the other big families naturally would not be stupid to take out real money, and almost all of them only took out two or three hundred taels of silver to deal with the matter......

This bit of silver is not enough to buy a mattress for that group!

He had no choice but to give up this path!

Cheng Ziyu had already arrived.

The emperor, the queen mother, the princess and the princess, these people must be the best! In addition to the pavilions and pavilions that need to be renovated, the tables, chairs and beds need to be replaced, from curtains and bedding to carpets and tablecloths, from gold and silver utensils to flowers, candles and lanterns...... Everything is a big expense.

What's more, there are not only one or two people who came, plus some officials, but also a lot of royal guards, palace maids, and hundreds of people.

On that day, the Cheng family courtyard spent 10,000 taels on renovation and purchase of basic materials, and then bought banquets and drinks, and the total amount of money spent on the fifth day was almost 30,000 taels of silver.

The annex in Weizhi County is naturally not as large as the Chengjia courtyard, and the cost may be less. But unless he had the courage to embezzle the Yamen's funds, he would never be able to hold up the money.

Therefore, as Cheng Ziyu guessed early in the morning, the meat that Wei Zhixian can't eat will not be cheap for outsiders, and the burden of receiving the royal family falls on the Wang family.

Because of Wang Yue, the Wang family should not give in.

This is just another reason why Cheng Ziyu wants to stay out of the matter.

Such a good thing that can get in close contact with the royal family and get closer to each other, the Wang family is naturally willing to do everything possible. Then, this hemorrhage will become the royal family!

Miss Wang finally ascended to the throne, in order to prevent Wang Yue from being looked down upon by the royal family, they should go all out more than the Cheng family in their previous life. The expenditure of tens of thousands of taels of silver will never be able to run away!

Well, here comes the contradiction!

Cheng Ziyu laughed when she thought about it.

Liu Er's news is better than her, and Liu Er asked her a few days ago if she wanted to know the current situation of Zhu Siye. Of course she wanted to.

The news is: After Zhu Si accepted the concubine, he was not thin to treat Wang Yue. He did not look down on her as a businesswoman at all, but respected and maintained her everywhere, and repaid Wang Yue for saving her life with practical actions.

His behavior saved him a reputation or two. In addition, although he only stayed at Wang Yue's place for three nights, he was substantially busy every night......

Cheng Ziyu didn't understand, but when she looked at Liu Er's red face, she immediately understood.

She was a little amazed, Li Chun's house, even knew such a secret of the boudoir? Li Chun is the emperor's person, and obviously, the emperor also installed someone around Zhu Si......

It took a while for Cheng Ziyu to react, and when she heard about Zhu Changan and Wang Yue, her heart didn't fluctuate at all? Don't seem to care?

In her previous life, she was the first famous woman by Zhu Changan's side, she was mentally prepared, she thought that there would be some waves more or less!

Not really!

Even, her first reaction was related to Li Chun?

However, this news proves one point: Wang Yue used her means to at least entrap Zhu Si. But what can Wang Yue do? What she has, but it's the Wang family!

Therefore, at this moment, the poor Zhu Changan should be waiting for the Wang family's "help"!

Then herein lies the contradiction!

First, the Wang family is not the Cheng family, and their development stems from the fact that they are the second-tier dealers of Jingxi pottery. Tens of thousands of taels of silver are not easy for them! It is very likely to be a total profit for several years or even a decade.

After cutting the meat with such vitality, how much more can the Wang family give to Wang Yue and Zhu Changan?

If it is not enough and cannot be taken, how can Zhu Changan be happy? How can Wang Yue have a good life? Will Concubine Zhao give up? Zhu Si will definitely have dislikes and complaints against the Wang family.

And in the same way, the Wang family will definitely think that they have tried their best, Zhu Changan, as the son-in-law of the Wang family and as a dignified son, how can he bring wealth and fame to the Wang family, instead of blindly asking for it! The Wang family will naturally not be satisfied, and will definitely force Wang Yue to do something for her mother's family......

Zhu Changan and Concubine Zhao did not achieve their goal, how could they give the Wang family sweetness?

Then, maybe the heads of the Wang family who can calculate may do something in the days when they take over, and good shows are absolutely indispensable.

The most unfortunate thing is that as soon as the Cheng family withdrew, the Wang family also cut off Zhu Changan's capital supply! At least in the short term, the Wang family will definitely not be able to hold a large sum of money! This poor prince will continue to deserve his name!

And Cheng Ziyu may not be able to do anything else, but it is definitely not difficult to let the Wang family earn less money or secretly cause damage on the Jingxi territory, and force the Wang family to pay more silver! She has to try her best to keep Zhu Changan poor and sour at the moment!

The Wang family's preparations are in full swing.

The Cheng family is safe.

In order to prevent the emperor from going to the Cheng Mansion like in his previous life, Cheng Ziyu has neither renovated the Cheng family nor made any arrangements since a few days ago.

There was even a tablecloth up and down the Cheng Mansion, not even a lantern was changed, and even in previous years, people only had one set of clothes for one season.

And the people knew that the government had taken a lot of money to do good, so naturally no one said anything.

On a rainy night, taking advantage of the absence, Liu Er stripped off a lot of wall skin and patent leather on the exterior wall, and then went up to the front yard and the backyard roof to remove a lot of tiles, and knocked out a few walls, stone steps and a few murals in the verandah. Even the gate of the outer palace was rubbed with two marks and cracked with a copper nail......

In this way, at first glance, although the entire Cheng Mansion looks magnificent, if you look closely, you can find that it is not as rich as the rumors......

Of course, this alone is not enough for someone with a heart to dispel the plot against the Cheng family in this life. This time, Cheng Ziyu wants to change his life from the source.

So on the third day after the news of the emperor's southward movement came out, Cheng Ziyu went up the mountain again, and she was going to do a birthday ceremony and a greeting ceremony!

And this time, all the gifts offered by the Cheng family will be completed by her!
