Xu Can looked suspicious. "You just pretend, you little brat. Don't I know what kind of person you are?"
Qiao Sanlang didn't say anything. He turned to Qiao Dalang and complained, "You should take care of your brother. This guy is so annoying when he talks!"
Qiao Dalang and others:........
Aren't you asking for this? What does it have to do with him? You know he is like this, and you still ask?
At this time, Manager Cao brought someone over to report: "Hello, young masters, Manager Yu is waiting outside!"
The Yu that Cao Guanshi mentioned is Yu Huanxi, the smiling Yu whom Qiao Xin asked Liang Guanshi to bring out. He is now the second Guanshi of Yu Mancang.
Shopkeeper Liang led his people to Yuncheng to expand the market. Yu Huanxi was currently taking over the shopkeeper's position. After receiving the message from the young master, he packed up his things and set off overnight.
The next morning, we appeared in Old Lake Town.
He is really a soldier of whom he is a soldier, and he acts like that person! He is indeed a talent that Qiao Xin has chosen.
Qiao Dalang closed his book, stood up and walked out first.
"Let's go, the person we're waiting for has arrived, let's go take a look together."
When everyone arrived at the living room, the Eighth Prince was also there, and he was talking to a few unfamiliar faces.
When he saw them, he was delighted, but he was not polite.
"I've only been back in Beijing for a few days, and so many things have happened. You didn't even send anyone to tell me. If my father hadn't urged me to come back quickly, would you have waited until everything was done before notifying me? That's really not nice of you!"
"We just had this idea. We have to wait for you to come back and discuss it. Who are these people?"
Qiao Dalang looked back and forth at the people behind the Eighth Prince. He bowed and saluted with his brother.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce them. These are my brothers. They are idle at home now, so my father asked them to come here to have some fun and see the world."
Seeing that the Eighth Prince was unwilling to talk to him face to face, and the other party was not very enthusiastic, Qiao Dalang and others also tactfully did not ask any further questions. The other party just nodded to them, obviously not wanting to make close friends with them for the time being.
The Eighth Prince frowned slightly when he saw their disrespectful attitude, but in front of everyone, he ordered the servant beside him to settle the person down first.
When the person left, he lay back and slumped in the chair.
"For my sake, don't take it personally. I'll talk to them later. I don't know what's wrong with my father. He actually asked me to bring them here to see the world. Isn't this embarrassing? I only met them after I left the palace. I only heard of them before, but never saw them in person!"
If it were in the past, how would people know who a nobody like me is?"
Everyone smiled and comforted him: "Why do you have to belittle yourself? After all, you are still a prince. How dare the other party disrespect you?"
The eighth prince curled his lips and said self-deprecatingly: "I am just a prince with a glamorous appearance, and you are the only ones who like me!"
Anyway, he has made up his mind to be a rich and wise king in this life, so it may not be a bad thing for the ministers to look down on him.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. What are you planning to do? Are you planning to go see the old lady during the holiday? Then count me in. I'll have someone pack up right away!"
Speaking of Qiao Xin, he missed her too! When the old lady was around, he was only responsible for eating, drinking, and having fun, and occasionally reading.
There is no need to work so hard like now!
I almost lost a layer of skin after returning to Beijing! Those people really have nothing to do after eating, why would they try to get close to him, an unpopular prince. I didn't do anything, but the second prince scolded me several times. Even my eldest brother's attitude towards me has improved a lot.
But he couldn't bear it. Why were these people so crazy?
It’s still comfortable here!
The Eighth Prince sighed comfortably. Before he could think about it, he heard Qiao Erlang say, "Share the money!"
Sharing money?
What money should be distributed? Yumancang distributes dividends every six months. Is this not the time yet?
Since Yumancang opened, the three of us have not raised a penny. This time we plan to take out the dividends, so I want to tell you about it.
Yu Mancang's business was booming every day, and it was no exaggeration to say that he made a fortune every day. His personal dividends must have been quite a lot. His father sent Eunuch Cao to take his share every month to fill the deficit of the court. But what did Qiao Dalang and his men do with so much money at once?
"Are you short of money? Is the monthly allowance from the government not enough for you?"
"That's not the case. We are going to spend such a large sum of money to buy land and hills in Yuncheng to give to students from the Agricultural College and Medical College as planting bases and medicinal fields."
"Isn't Old Lake Town here?"
There were several hills at the foot of the mountain and not far from the town that were originally bought by Qiao Xin and given to the college. Why is she buying them again now?
Qian Erlang shook his head: "That's different. The climate and environment of Yuncheng are completely different from those of Weizhou. The crops that can be grown must be different. We can't just follow the instructions to plant them. We naturally need a test field. While things are not expensive now, let's buy them first. Otherwise, when everyone buys them, the price will be beyond our college's reach."
Qiao Sanlang also said: "I went to the Agricultural College several times before and heard seniors complain that there were many things they wanted to plant, but there was not enough land to go around. And many of the hills where herbs grow well have been occupied by major families. Our college can only find a way on its own, but the college doesn't have the extra money to do it now.
Grandma will definitely support him in the future, but we can't rely on him for everything, and we want to do our part."
Xu Can also got excited and said generously: "I'll also contribute to this. The money from Yu Mancang was earned by you guys for me."
Guanjianze: "And me!"
The Eighth Prince...
Can I say no?
"Then take me with you!"
Manager Yu came in, received instructions, and looked through the account book he brought with him, his abacus clacking loudly.
The dividends that the young man from the Qiao family should get were calculated, and the three of them received a total of 10,000 taels of silver.
It was quite a lot, and the number was far beyond their imagination!
The rest of the people can get together and 20,000 taels should be able to come up with it. Although there aren't many extra students in the academy, there are still quite a few. Let's give others a chance to show off.
Under the leadership of Qiao Sanlang, a plan to cheat people, no, a plan to do good things was quickly put into practice.
The report was submitted to the college the next day and caused a huge sensation!
Dean Liang was shocked that these children could come up with so much money. He was afraid that their money came from illegal sources, so he personally summoned them to ask them about it.
"Tell me, whose idea was this and where did the money come from? Aren't you guys just kidding?"
The kids looked at each other, and finally all turned their attention to the three Qiao brothers.
