Mrs. Yang smiled and said, "You dead girl, you will be able to calculate this time." It's just a little bit of something, and you're greedy? I'm still sending these less. Okay, the maid and the granddaughters should step aside, and the Liu family and Xingyi will stay. ”

When everyone left, only Mrs. Yang, Shen Xingyi, and Liu were left, Mrs. Yang told the story again.

Shen Xingyi couldn't help but look serious: "Mother, little aunt used to be good, we weren't very close. This is also normal, after all, the friendship between our two families has only been a few months old. However, this time, I felt that she and we were almost like a family. It's really strange to be so close to me. ”

"It already makes me feel good about her. You also said that the little aunt actually refused to give her 30% of the annual profits of dry shares in the sea trade. That's nearly a million taels of silver a year. She actually refused ruthlessly, and she didn't have to think about it, this heart, this open-mindedness is admirable. ”

"Before, my daughter saw that she was young, only fourteen years old, and she grew up with me by a lifetime and became my little aunt, I still complained to my grandfather in my heart, why did she accept such a young apprentice at such an old age? How do we recognize seniority? Now, I don't think so. Grandpa is really discerning, and this little apprentice of his old man is really not simple. I'm going to have to socialize with her more in the future. By the way, she said before that if the lotus flowers of our Ma family bloomed, we would hold a banquet to invite her. Well, I'm going back to make a good deal with my mother-in-law about this matter. ”

Seeing that her daughter was so smart, Mrs. Yang was very satisfied: "Xingyi, it's right that you can think so." Anyway, socializing with your little aunt more will only benefit you. ”

Liu on the side said, "Mother, this matter is too serious, right?" Although the little aunt is good, after all, she is only fourteen years old, and she has not been apprenticed for a few months, can she measure it well? If this is not calculated well, it will be lost, but it is a huge number, even our Shen family, and it will inevitably hurt our muscles and bones. ”

Mrs. Yang sighed, this daughter-in-law is good at everything, but sometimes her eyes can't see far, so she still has to teach more: "Liu, even if your little aunt miscalculated this time." Our Shen family has lost. As long as the old lady is still there and is still a national teacher, our Shen family will have no problem, and there will be no money to make again. However, we can't afford to lose such a good opportunity to get in touch with your little sister-in-law. This is related to the future, after the old lady immortal goes, our Shen family will prosper a big thing, for this, it is worth spending no amount of silver. ”

In this way, Liu also understood. I really have a narrow horizon. However, it is really admirable that my mother-in-law can make a decision on such a major matter. No wonder my mother-in-law always lets me learn more from my mother-in-law. My mother-in-law is really a heroine.

Mrs. Yang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were thinking about it, but Qin Mingyue didn't know. She hurried back at the moment, and did not return to the Liguo Mansion, but went to the Star Picking Tower to prepare to go, first, the government affairs in the past few days should be properly arranged, and second, to ask people to prepare the things that Qingmingtang needs to divination, and prepare for tomorrow's divination.

On this day, Qin Mingyue did not go back to the Liguo Mansion, but stayed in Qingmingtang and began to fast and bathe.

It lasted until ten midnight the next day, and Qin Mingyue, who had already meditated and cultivated, was full of true qi and was in very good spirits, wearing a priest's dress, and her black and red robe looked very solemn.

Qin Mingyue's green silk had already been draped down, and she just wore a simple crown of laurel branches on top of her head. This crown is no simple task. The laurel branches used are all bathed in a hundred years of moonlight, carefully selected cinnamon branches, and then woven by the virgin of exquisite craftsmanship, with the qi of heaven and earth to yin, which is very helpful for communicating the stars and divination.

Such a monthly laurel crown is worth a fortune for ordinary fortune tellers, and it may take a lifetime to accumulate one. However, it is really nothing for the Star Picking Tower, which controls the resources of the world. Such a centennial laurel crown is only used for ordinary fortune calculations. If Shen Guoshi used it to calculate the world's major events, he would definitely wear the crown that has been passed down from the previous generations of national teachers, and that crown woven by a 10,000-year-old laurel branch will do.

From this, we can see why the national teacher has been multiplying, this is the collection of the strength of a country to support, and it will naturally become more and more prosperous.

Qin Mingyue stood on the terrace, looked at the seven whale oil lamps that had been prepared around her, nodded, and began to calculate divination.

The person who picks the star tower is a professional, and these seven whale oil lamps were originally refined from whale oil grown in the polar regions, and the seven spices configured with the secret recipe are the most sobering and quiet. In this way, the seven whale oil lamps burned for three days, I am afraid that it will cost nearly five hundred taels of silver. Fortunately, Shen Guoshi will subsidize some of the expenses used by the Star Picking Building every year. This is also the reason why the Shen family wants to give the national teacher profits every year.

As far as Qin Mingyue knew, Shen Guoshi's annual expenditure on making these divination calculations was at least about one million taels of silver. It's not that the Shen family has this sea trade business that is making money every day, and it really can't afford to supply it.

In her previous life, Qin Mingyue also relied on the annual income of two million taels of silver provided by the Shen family to support the annual expenses of the Star Picking Tower. As for the court, there is no way for her to spend some of her expenses, so she can only rely on the support of the Hua family, so this is also part of the reason why Hua Yixuan looks at her unpleasantly.

Qin Mingyue shook her head, took these trivial matters out of her mind, and began to seriously look at the red paper given by Mrs. Yang in her hand.

Mrs. Yang gave the situation of all the ships, the captain, the first mate's birthday, as well as the route, time, Qin Mingyue according to these set of stars, the direction of the stars, the sunny and rainy conditions on these routes from now to autumn, and finally after three days of calculation, the best time for all routes to sail was finally calculated, and sealed in a mahogany box.

Qin Mingyue, who was already tired and exhausted, weakly returned to her bedroom in Qingming Hall, rested, bathed and changed clothes, ate a hearty meal, relieved herself, and asked someone to send this mahogany box to the Shen family, before she said to herself: "Hey, after all, it's only the first realm, although this first realm has entered the second level, it still can't be compared with the previous second peak." ”

"In the past, I used to calculate these for the Shen family, although it was also three days, but there was no need to use so much effort. It seems that after the matter at hand is dealt with, it will be necessary to enter the Star Hall to cultivate for a while. ”

After speaking, Qin Mingyue changed into a nightgown and went to rest. I haven't slept for three days and three nights, can I not be sleepy?
