Green bricks and dark tiles, flowers bloom on the paths, perfuming her clothes; vermilion gates and purple halls, she plucks stars with her bare hands, adorned in a rainbow.
Chapter 266 Let’s Settle the Accounts
"The wind can generate energy, the water can generate energy, the ice can generate energy. Now coal can generate energy too?!"
County Magistrate Sang, who was appointed as the Langzhong of the Left Cao of the Ministry of Revenue, looked depressed as he looked at the accounts of coal sold to the Su family in various places.
You can obviously use coal to generate electricity, but why do you have to go around in circles and do something fancy?
He discovered the young woman's tricks from the coal inflow and outflow situation, and was promoted to the Ministry of Revenue with this.
That was because the emperor admired him for his loyalty to the royal family.
But unexpectedly, this caused another upheaval.
Now that the emperor has just traded plastic greenhouses with the Baishang Kingdom, she has jumped out again to produce them herself and sell them across the country.
Is this a slap in his face, or the emperor's?
I guess his face must be green with anger by now.
In this way, the Tianqian Pass will be completely destroyed.
Because coal is everywhere...
There are also some in Baishang Country!
But they really can't do it.
I won’t sell you this extraction method!
And they've been hoarding coal for almost half a year...
He really seizes the initiative at every step.
County Magistrate Sang's beard trembled as he asked the confused Bo Zhubu, "Do you think this little girl is my lucky star or my nemesis?"
But she didn't hear a response. She looked at him in surprise and asked, "What's wrong with you lately? You seem absent-minded."
Only then did Master Bo come back to his senses and casually agreed, "Your Excellency is right."
?
County Magistrate Sang gave him a dissatisfied look.
After all, I'm old, and I've become confused after just staying up a few nights with him to sort out the accounts.
"You can go down and have some rest." County Magistrate Sang waved his hand.
Bo Zhubu was startled, but immediately bowed and retreated.
When he turned around, his expression was serious.
So many people lost contact at the same time...
Is he Xie Xuan's man, or someone from his family...
Now that the Su family has shown such a skill, even if His Highness gains a firm foothold, it will be useless to seize Tianzhu.
What's more, the Kingdom of Tianzhu had already received a warning from someone and chose to stand on the same side as Nanling.
After all, only that woman can turn this thing into gold.
Now it seems that the layout is very meticulous.
She is like a wild horse that has broken free from its reins, and even the Emperor of Nanling cannot control her.
If this continues, the imprisoned two saints of Nanling...
On the other side, Xie Xuan also received frequent secret reports.
Mu Ze and Chu Zhao looked at each other.
"General, the people on this list were not killed one by one, but were assassinated simultaneously recently. It seems that Tuoba Ye has noticed it."
Mu Ze also added: "General, do you want to protect these two people and use threats and bribes to force them to give up Tuoba Ye?"
Xie Xuan tapped the table lightly, his face stern. "If this happens, wouldn't it expose our eavesdropping?"
That person is most likely testing someone.
Mu Ze looked startled and didn't say anything for a long time.
Mu Ze bowed and said, "General, should we send someone to secretly protect Bo Zhubu?"
This person is the key.
This time, Mu Ze couldn't help but roll his eyes.
The man plotted to kidnap the lady, and the general wanted to kill him himself but it was too late.
What's more, it's just to protect one person.
Wouldn't that further expose the fact that they were following this person to find out the truth?
"If this person is a wise man, he will know how to protect himself."
If they were killed, they would be of no use.
Mu Ze and the other man understood.
Tuoba Ye is indeed perceptive, and we must not let him notice this eavesdropping.
Otherwise, not only will the revenge for the Qilin Army not be avenged, but a lot of trouble will also arise.
It seems that the emperor who was just sitting in office doing nothing was actually playing games with his wife.
This item must be kept to protect the lady and must not be moved without permission.
Xie Xuan's eyes were cold and pointed. "We need to arrange more personnel around the Su family, and those who associate with them need to be closely monitored."
This is because they are afraid that Old Master Su and the men will be lured and captured.
Mu Ze and the other two immediately responded.
After they finished their official business, General Han, who had been standing impatiently on the side, stepped forward and said, "When the two armies are fighting together, we always have to go to such great lengths to bring people here. It's time for you to move your ass."
His old man has to come here to study every day.
Chu Zhao and Mu Ze were immediately delighted.
It's not that their general is unwilling to move, it's because his wife is here...
…
At the same time, Su Shengsheng was reconciling accounts with the shopkeepers in various places.
The female accountant beside them was flipping through the account books at a rapid speed.
The princess was very capable and actually understood it clearly.
Even their detailed accounts can be roughly calculated.
The bookshops and bookstores co-opened with Mr. Sun are also selling well in their branches across the country.
Most people have bad memories, yet they still have to study and farm.
It’s not that I don’t know how to farm, but greenhouse farming always requires attention to temperature control, etc.
In the past, not only were women illiterate, but even most ordinary people were illiterate.
But this time, thanks to the pinyin teaching broadcast by the men and women of the Su family in the morning, they were able to barely read the dictionary.
And the current affairs newspapers also had pinyin on them.
Girls who cannot afford to go to school now have free schools.
Boys also have it, but they must be polite.
Parents who want to send their sons to school must also send their daughters to school, and there are corresponding job arrangements for girls.
In short, the Su family’s school is not a charity.
You have to follow their wishes. But isn't it about letting women become independent?
For ordinary people who can't even afford to eat, the words of those poor and virtuous women who take care of their husbands and children are not as practical as having enough food and clothing.
Anyway, no matter what the ones above and the ones in the middle say.
Those under them just listen and enjoy the show while holding on to their jobs.
Who can resist money?
The unmarried daughter can earn her own dowry before going out.
It actually saved them some money.
It saves you from having to contact close friends at home every day, thousands of miles away.
Don't you even eat? Sending telegrams every day?
On the knowledge side, although I don’t expect to earn much, I still have to be able to break even.
Su Shengsheng told the bookstore's accountant not to listen to Mr. Sun's words about serving the country and the people.
If you don’t make money, who will continue to run a business?
Don’t just have a Confucian business mindset, you also have to look at the long term.
"No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. Let me settle the account clearly."
The accountant blushed and moved on to the next one.
On Fourth Sister's side, the accounts are even more confusing.
Those accountants looked hopeless because they were exhausted from reconciling the accounts.
Su Shengsheng only flipped through one book before throwing it back. "Charity is charity, keep it in a separate account book, and business is business. All three of you should start over and classify the accounts."
Although it was only the accounts for half a year, the Su family's business was really big. If they were to pay it back from the beginning, it would take more than a month to sort it out.
At this moment, all the female accountants were silent.
The bosses were also sweating, "We got it mixed up."
Su Shengsheng ignored her and walked to the budget. She flipped through a few pages and then slammed it on the table.
"How did you make this budget? They didn't even calculate the monthly fixed indirect costs?"
Several female accountants were on the verge of tears.
Su Shengsheng was still sharp, "Calculate the coal fee and personnel insurance fees for me, otherwise what will happen if there is a shortage of funds later?"
The women were so frightened that they died immediately on the spot.
The rest were so afraid of being swept into the tail end of the typhoon that they lowered their heads almost to their chests.
The meeting lasted all day.
After the show, Qing Ning couldn't help but ask, "Miss, are you here for that?"
Look how embarrassed those shop owners are, like defeated roosters.
Women are even worse, they only dare to stare at shoes.
Su Shengsheng raised her eyes and asked, "Do you think I was harsh?"
Qing Ning nodded, then shook her head.
There is no mercy...
"If you want to gain a foothold in men's territory, you must stop thinking that you are a woman and need to be taken care of."
Qing Ning: “…”
"You can't say gender equality and be respectable at the same time."
