Chapter 489: How rich is my wife?
Princess Qionghua is thirty-one this year. Perhaps because she has lived a very comfortable life, she looks only twenty-five or twenty-six, and her complexion is excellent.
At this moment, she was looking at Luo Zhu, who looked disheveled but not embarrassed, with great interest. She had seen many handsome men, and some with blood on them, but this one, who looked obviously disheveled but still managed to hold on, obviously afraid but with his back straight, and obviously not very handsome, made her unable to help but take a few more glances.
Her sight slid down his cheek to his neck, collarbone, waist and abdomen. When she looked down, Princess Qionghua's gaze was filled with a hint of heat. He did have a good figure.
"What happened?"
Seeing that Tang Mo was almost ready and brought his men over, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute as if he had just discovered the princess' carriage, and looked at Luo Zhu with dissatisfaction, "You are so bold to bump into the princess' carriage."
As he said this, he told the princess that he would take Luo Zhu away for interrogation. Luo Zhu hurriedly explained that he had just encountered injustice and his money was robbed. After introducing his identity, he assured that he was a good citizen. His voice was pleasant and low, which made Princess Qionghua feel numb. Tang Mo didn't care about that and said he would take Luo Zhu away for a thorough investigation.
"Deputy Commander Tang."
As soon as the princess spoke, Tang Mo turned around and said, "Princess, this man is indeed the owner of the cosmetics shop, but he still behaves suspiciously. I will definitely investigate this matter."
"You should investigate those thugs instead of making things difficult for a law-abiding businessman."
Princess Qionghua's gaze fell on Luo Zhu again. "Since this matter has offended me, I will take him back and interrogate him strictly. You don't need to worry about it."
Luo Zhu hurriedly pleaded for mercy. When he bowed, his clothes drooped down. The princess in the carriage could clearly see his strong chest. She was even more determined to win him. "You ruined my trip, which is a serious crime."
"Take it away and return home."
Just like that, Luo Zhu was taken away. Tang Mo was filled with emotion as he watched the group of people leave. Some people get up early and work late but still can't reach their goals, while some people can achieve them with just a little trick and flirting. How can you say this is not a skill? "Boss, I'm afraid that Boss Luo's innocence is no longer safe."
The people around him whispered, "The way the princess looked at Boss Luo was so scary."
Tang Mo tilted his head, "Shut up, is this something you should discuss? Be careful of what you say."
The subordinate shrank his neck and said, "I understand."
Tang Mo took his people away and he would not be involved in the rest of the matter. Whether it would succeed or not depended entirely on Luo Zhu's ability.
When the dog days of summer arrive, the city is also at its busiest, and the imperial court has introduced several decrees in succession, all of which are beneficial to the people.
Encourage farming and land reclamation, appropriately reduce taxes, encourage merchants to do business and allow goods to circulate, widen rivers during the dry season in winter to allow more merchant ships to travel, and more importantly, allocate funds to expand the navy, fully open up the sea ban, and take the lead in doing business with overseas countries. For example, overseas countries cannot barter, but gold and silver can be traded. For a time, the whole capital was in an uproar.
"In the past few years, when the maritime ban was gradually lifted, many foreign countries came to trade. Now that it is fully lifted, I wonder how prosperous it will be."
Xin Chang found Xin An. The Xin family didn't have a large ship to go out to sea, let alone a fleet, but they did have a valuable cargo to go out to sea: sugar! "I've already sent a letter back. I originally thought that we already had enough sugar-making workshops under our control, but now it seems far from enough. We must ask the workshops that cooperate with us to expand their scale, grow more sugarcane, and make more sugar."
"According to our understanding, some foreign countries have a lot of silver mines. Silver is nothing to them, so they will definitely send a lot of it to exchange for goods. There will be a price difference. We can also do a lot of tea business. Those barbarians overseas will learn to be pretentious and force themselves to drink if they are not used to it."
"Contact the Chamber of Commerce and let's all contribute money and make money together. This is a once-in-a-century opportunity."
Xin Chang became more and more excited as he spoke. He felt as if there was gold everywhere. He wished he could go back and forth between the capital and the Huai River in one day. At the end, he excitedly said to Xin An, "I have ordered a batch of Kunlun slaves. Those Kunlun slaves were all sent from overseas. They are all strong and hardworking. They will work hard for only a small salary and enough food. They are loyal and will not complain or run away. They are much more useful than those hired guys. I will send some to you when the time comes."
Although she felt that she had no use for them, she still found them curious, saying that she had heard of Silla maids, "who were said to be the best at serving people and extremely respectful to their masters."
Xin Chang said that it was difficult to get, "Maybe there will be more in the future, and I'll get two if I can."
As he spoke, he sighed about the strength of his own country. They were all commodities for trading, unlike those barbaric and uncivilized barbarians who always traded slaves. It was said that they were captured and it was a no-cost business.
Profiteer!!!
Xin An asked Chunyang to bring over a box, which contained two hundred thousand taels of silver notes. These were the capital for her carefree life, and she gave them all to Xin Chang. "Since my family has let my second uncle take charge of the business in the capital, I have to make many decisions on my own. The news is slow to come and go, and by the time I get the news, I'm afraid the opportunity will have been missed."
"These banknotes are what I saved. Uncle will take them all today. Since you want to do big business, you can't be short of capital. Return them to me when you make money, and give me some dividends at the same time."
She looked at her second aunt with a smile, "Second aunt, I can't keep up with the pace now, so take me with you to make money."
Madam Xin laughed, "Even if you don't contribute capital, you will still have a share. Your uncle came here today with this idea, but he still couldn't bring himself to do it after talking for a long time. We brought a lot of money with us to the capital, and we spent a lot of money these days visiting shops and ordering goods. Now it's too late to write back to get the money, so I can only think of you."
If you want to make big money, you have to invest more capital. The Xin family also has times when they are not well off.

"Is this two hundred thousand enough? If not, I can think of a way. I still have a lot of good stuff."
The warehouse was almost full of good stuff, and he didn't really like some of them. Xin Chang said that there was no need for that for the time being, as he was now trying to raise capital, and the good stuff couldn't be sold at a high price.
When Tang Mo came back, he met the Xin family who were carrying the box out. After seeing the family off and returning to Qiushiyuan, he learned that Xin An had given out 200,000 yuan. Tang Mo felt that he was hallucinating, "Can't you tell me how much money?"
"Two hundred thousand taels of silver."
Xin An said it without caring, Tang Mo stroked his heart, "How can there be so much money?"
It was tens of thousands before, but now it has become two hundred thousand?
How rich is the daughter-in-law?
Xin An thought he was worried that he would have nothing to live on if he took out all the money, so he said, "Don't worry, I gave out silver notes, and I kept a few boxes of cash, a box of gold cakes, and palm-sized dried abalone for you to eat every meal."
Tang Mo suddenly felt that all his efforts had lost their meaning.
