"Deal with him? It's just a lot like what we used to do. Li Shu asked.

Clumsy nodded at her: "Yes, that's roughly the truth." ”

Li Shu was thinking in her heart, she was a little distracted, and she didn't even hear Liu Yunshao shouting at her.

"Shi Yao." Liu Yunshao looked at Li Shu with some worry, she thought that she had given her too many tasks? It's so absent-minded at this moment. "Are you alright?"

"Huh?" Li Shu reacted and hurriedly smiled at Liu Yunshao. "I'm naturally fine, the queen doesn't have to worry."

"Where did you just go?"

Chu Nan closed the book in his hand and replied, "Speaking of subsidies in the harem." His Majesty had just ascended the throne, the treasury was empty, and now he was going to draft again. The expenses of the harem are not optimistic, and when those show girls come in, it is estimated that it will only make matters worse, and it will be all a deficit. ”

Li Shu smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Which family's harem is as miserable as ours." ”

Liu Yunshao also shook her head helplessly, she sighed lightly: "This is also a matter of no choice, Your Majesty ascends the throne to consolidate the rivers and mountains, and the expenses will naturally be larger, and the harem will naturally not be able to take care of it." ”

"It's the queen of the palace, and a month's supply is only enough to buy a few silk robes, and other jewelry, rare treasures, don't even think about it."

"But this is not the way to go." Chu Nan leaned back in the chair and said a little unlovingly. "It's good to save money, but we don't usually need anything. But the problem is that, according to the custom, all the ladies of the palace have to send some items to the new show girls to welcome. That's a lot of money. ”

"Who says it's not, these things that are given away have to be high-end and high-grade, and they can't be cheap, otherwise they will make people laugh. But now we can't afford to feed ourselves, how can we give them? Li Shu was also helpless when he talked about this, there was no way, who told us that we didn't have money.

Liu Yunshao nodded approvingly. "Although we can rely on our mother's family to make up for it, we can't always gnaw on our mother's old book, but let those guys who don't like His Majesty in the morning grab the handle."

Li Shu sat down in his place, turned his head, and said to Chu Nan weakly: "Nan Nan, look at the account book in your hand, who is the richest in each palace now?" ”

Chu Nan was stunned: "What?" ”

"I'm going to take advantage of the fire... No, rob the rich and help the poor. Li Shu replied casually, but he suddenly felt that the words were not very accurate, so he changed the word again, but the meaning was about the same.

Chu Nan reluctantly opened the book in his hand, and after a certain chat, when Chu Nan showed an amazing talent for arithmetic in front of everyone, Liu Yunshao completely became the shopkeeper, and he threw the power of managing finances in his hands to Chu Nan with confidence and boldness. But managing money is really tiring, so much so that Chu Nan has a resentful look every time he sees Liu Yunshao. I don't know, I thought Liu Yunshao was a scumbag and lost Chu Nan.

"I'll see, it's the same in terms of the current subsidies for each palace, but if you look at it in terms of expenditure..."

"What's going on in terms of spending?" Liu Yunshao became interested, she stared at Chu Nan and asked.

"In terms of expenditure, the palace that belongs to the noble concubine spends the most. The purchases are all precious items, and any jade and jade are common things. Chu Nan hesitated, but still said.

Hearing this, Li Shu's eyes lit up. Her eyes regained their spirits, as if she had found something interesting.

"That concubine palace has already exceeded her due share." Li Shu asked.

Chu Nan nodded at Li Shu, the expression on his face was very complicated: "What's more, it's more than five times more than enough." ”

The three of them rolled their eyes in unison, heh, when we were living a hard life, you were living a leisurely life with golden light, why. That's right, they are hating the rich, they are jealous.

"Where did she get so much money? Does the Chen family have a mine? Li Shu couldn't help but smack his tongue at this time. Even if she has a system and is the chosen one, she is still living a tight life. And Chen Luoniang is so big-hearted, how could the Chen family raise her.

"I heard that the Chen family took advantage of the first emperor's illness in bed, and the opportunity of the three kings to win the heir made a lot of money." Chu Nan thought about it, and suddenly remembered that he often listened to the words that his old man nagged every day at home.

Don't look at her father as a master, but the ability to scold people is not covered. Every day at home, she scolded the old man of the Chen family, and her ears were about to become calloused.

"It's... How to earn? Li Shu was a little confused, this can still make a fortune by taking the heir.

Liu Yunshao knew the inside story, and she was not stingy, and directly explained to Li Shu: "This was the situation back then. It's not that the three princes have taken the heir, the head of the Chen family, that is, Chen Luoniang's father, has always maintained an ambiguous attitude. The Chen family has a lot of power, who doesn't want to win it over. Today I give a gift, and tomorrow he gives a gift is commonplace. This gift is not small, and the Chen family has the face to return it to you. So, his family made a windfall on this. ”

Chen Luoniang's father still has the ability, knowing that these gifts are hot on the surface, so he replaced the money he collected with shops. It's so profitable, tsk, but it's a fat income. Chu Nan continued with Liu Yunshao's words, as soon as she thought of the scene of the gold and silver mountains, she couldn't help but be moved, nonsense, who doesn't like money.

"It's a whole nouveau riche." Li Shu exclaimed, she knew how rich Chen Luoniang was.

"That's not what I mean." Chu Nan also looked envious, jealous and hateful, who called her father no one Chen Luoniang's father had no face and no lower limit. But in this situation, she is still a little glad that her father has a temperance.

"Tsk, gentlemen, I want to rob her. She is now a walking cornucopia in my eyes, and if I don't rob her to help us, I feel very uncomfortable. Li Shu said with a smile. Although this is a very good thing, but considering his current poverty and Chen Luoniang's unclean money, Li Shu has the desire to do it.

"I'd advise you to dispel this thought." Chu Nan shook his head at Li Shu and poured a basin of cold water on her. "The Chen family is not a vegetarian, and every expense they spend is on the account. If you want to get meat out of the tiger's mouth, forget it. ”

"You usually scold her, forget it, and the Chen family can't do anything with you. But if you move their precious daughter, tsk, even if it is Prime Minister Song, I guess they will dare to make a Bo. ”

"Is it so scary?" Li Shu asked in surprise. Liu Yunshao and Chu Nan almost didn't hesitate, and immediately nodded to her.

"Don't underestimate their family, their roots are deep, which is why Your Majesty didn't move them."

Li Shu had no choice but to give up and suppress the desire in his heart.

"Speaking of Your Majesty, Your Majesty has devoted himself to government politics in the past two years, and rarely stepped into the harem." When Li Shu heard Liu Yunshao talk about the little emperor, she was actually quite curious. She has been in this small world for so long, and she has never seen the little emperor.

"No way, Your Majesty's diligence in government is one reason, but more reason is to avoid Chen Luoniang."

"I don't know where she got the news, every time the emperor came to the harem, she came out in a particularly timely manner, scratching her head in front of the emperor, and directly scared the emperor." The corners of Liu Yunshao's mouth twitched when she thought of this, every time the emperor was frightened, he would come here to chat with her and find comfort, every time she wanted to secretly look at the book.

"Poof, I didn't see it, she's acting so strongly." Li Shu couldn't help laughing a little, that scene must have been exciting.

"Wow." Chu Nan also exclaimed, I didn't expect it.

"This palace estimates that she wants to climb onto the emperor's dragon bed as soon as possible and conceive a dragon son as soon as possible." Liu Yunshao thought for a while.

"Their family must have sensed the emperor's lukewarm attitude towards their family, if they want to consolidate their position, conceiving a dragon son is the best way. Although they are not sisters-in-law, according to the current situation, if they succeed, they will be the eldest sons. ”

"For them, the eldest son is definitely enough. As long as everything they are doing now is stabilized, it will be a sure thing to push this child to the throne in the future. ”

Li Shu sighed a little, "It's really a good plan." ”

"So my father's purpose in sending me to the palace is to prevent this from happening."

Liu Yunshao nodded. "I think so. Let you get in the way, after all, it is impossible for Your Majesty not to set foot in the harem for the rest of your life. ”

"Ah, let's not talk about that, let's talk about making money." Li Shu was a little irritable, she rubbed her hair and changed the subject. "We've got to solve our own financial problems first."

"But what can we do?" Chu Nan flipped through the account book in her hand at will, and she was also worried.

"Why don't we open a shop too." Li Shu's eyes suddenly lit up, and she thought of the example of the Chen family exchanging money for shops just now.

"Open a shop?" Chu Nan and Liu Yunshao looked at each other in surprise.

Chu Nan looked at Li Shu and saw that she was not lying, so she asked, "Where are you going to open it?" What kind of shop to open? ”

"Shengjing's current market, there are several industries that are monopolized by the Chen family."

Li Shu's face was unfathomable, she glanced at Chu Nan with disgust and said, "I didn't say that it was opened in Shengjing." ”

"And where are you going to open it?" Liu Yunshao blinked and asked.

"In the harem, of course." Li Shu told his plan and plan.

"You think, the concubines and palace maids in the harem are rarely able to go out, and if you want something, you have to wait for the monthly concession day to send your maids out, or let your mother's family send them in. How inconvenient this is. ”

"So, do you want to buy back the commercial goods in Shengjing in the harem, and then sell them to these concubines or something?" Liu Yunshao is worthy of being a fox, and she immediately understood what Li Shu meant. She thinks it's a good idea, because it's a big problem. If such a shop really opened in the palace, it would not be too popular.

Chu Nan also lowered her head and was thinking about the possibility of this matter, she thought about it in many ways and felt that this matter was feasible.

"I think it's feasible, but the needs of each palace are different, how to procure it?" Although Chu Nan agreed, she had a lot of doubts.

"That's when we need to 'investigate.'" Li Shu smiled and threw out his own solution.
