Chapter 453: Don't Guess 1
Unexpectedly, meeting this time-traveling female supporting role, Zhu Yingyan's life would take such a big turn.
Even though Zhu Yingyan has the halo of the heroine, Zhu Xuntao doesn't think that Zhu Yingyan, who has nothing, can still get up and continue to be the richest person in the Great Yong Dynasty.
Zhu Yingyan is impossible, and Zhu Xuntao doesn't think she can take over.
She knows very well how fast she makes money.
Every time Qiuyue sees her taking out money, she cries with heartache.
Even so, she is still the richest person in the Great Yong Dynasty?
Even if Xiao Jingzhan really wants to comfort her, he doesn't have to tell such a lie.
Xiao Jingzhan held Zhu Xuntao in his arms and calculated for her:
"Do you think you only got 30%, while the court got 70%, so you didn't get much?"
"Otherwise..."
It all depends on who you compare it with.
Zhu Xuntao only felt that she was not poor, but she was definitely not rich. She didn't even dare to think about being the richest person in the Yong Dynasty.
Xiao Jingzhan explained with a smile: "The court has to invest money in the glass business."
"Thanks to you, the treasury has the most money in the history of the Great Yong Dynasty."
"But for such a large court, there are too many places where money needs to be spent."
"Before, the treasury was empty, and the lives of the soldiers on the frontier were difficult."
"If it weren't for the Marquis's secret subsidies, my grandfather and my third uncle's family would have lived in extreme poverty there."
"Since the court started the glass business, there has been money in the treasury, and the emperor is no longer stingy."
"Taotao doesn't know how much the lives of the soldiers on the frontier have improved compared to before."
"My grandfather heard that it was all your credit, so he wrote a letter to my father to praise you."
"Jingyun and Jingfeng haven't come back yet. Although they haven't met your sister-in-law, they already admire you very much."
"When Third Uncle's family comes back, I'm afraid Yaoyao will have two more little tails."
Xiao Jingzhan knew too well how much Xiao Jingyun and Xiao Jingfeng admired Zhu Xuntao.
In the past, these two brats were very lazy and might not be willing to write a letter to greet everyone once a year.
But since they knew that they had a sister-in-law like Zhu Xuntao,
the Marquis' Mansion has received three letters from the two, which together equals six letters.
This number directly surpassed the letters the two sent to the Marquis' Mansion in the previous five years, and they were scolded by their grandmother with a smile.
And in the letters from these two younger brothers, between the lines, at least eight out of ten sentences mentioned and asked about Zhu Xuntao.
In the past, Xiao Jingzhan really wanted his uncle's family to return to the capital with his grandfather for a family reunion.
As for guarding the border, in fact, not only his father could go, he could go too.
But he didn't know if Zhu Xuntao would be willing to go with him.
"What, take care of the children again? I don't want to do that."
Zhu Xuntao has been afraid of taking care of children recently, especially half-grown children like Xiao Jingyun and Xiao Jingfeng, she is most afraid of them.
On the day Zhu Xuntao came back, Xiao Jingyu told her how the stories she told improved his criminal methods and
helped him solve strange cases repeatedly. That's why he was promoted to the position of Shaoqing of the Dali Temple by the emperor. After that,
Xiao Jingyu seemed to have found a legitimate reason to disturb Zhu Xuntao, and he pestered Zhu Xuntao to "tell stories" every day.
Zhu Xuntao was forced to give Xiao Jingyu some advice:
"Didn't you listen to Chen Liang's stories in the past?"
"Then just keep doing it. It will allow you to interact with Chen Liang more."
