Chapter 21 Gifts
Chapter 21 Gift
"I went to the shop. There is some business to discuss there." Jing Yu said, his eyes carefully falling on Xu Ruyi's pretty face. Xu Ruyi was hanging her calligraphy and paintings while nodding to indicate that she was listening.
, Jing Yusui continued: "I brought you some gifts when I came back."
"A gift?" After hearing this, Xu Ruyi looked up at Jing Yu in surprise and asked curiously: "What gift?"
"You'll know just as soon as you come with me!"
Although Xu Ruyi is a princess, she has received many gifts since she was a child. However, these gifts are either favors or face. There is no gift that really impresses her.
Xu Ruyi was really shocked when she heard that the little guy was going to give her a gift. However, since she was born in the palace, she had heard about the precious things that were paid tribute to the officials from all over the country, so she was very interested in what Jing Yu said.
She didn't have high hopes for the gift.
On the other hand, Jing Yu walked very fast in front of him. Every two steps he took, he would look back at Xu Ruyi, who was walking slowly and steadily behind, for fear of losing her.
Xu Ruyi followed him all the way to the backyard. Before reaching the innermost part of the backyard, Xu Ruyi saw seven or eight small trucks carrying goods outside the warehouse door. Some of the trucks also had boxes placed on them.
Xu Ruyi couldn't help but be a little confused, but Jing Yu said to Xu Ruyi with great interest: "Would you like to guess what I gave you?"
"It's not just jewelry, this princess is not lacking in those!"
Jing Yu knew that she must have a good face. She always tried her best to serve the Empress Dowager Jiang and please her, so that she could get some expensive jewelry. Jing Yu knew that her sister-in-law's life was not easy, so she would
To protect my sister-in-law's self-esteem.
He then took Xu Ruyi to the door of the warehouse, where he stopped. Xu Ruyi also stopped and looked at the empty warehouse in front of him. There was nothing that could be stored in the Princess Mansion's warehouse.
Xu Ruyi was staring at the warehouse in front of her when she heard Jing Yu solemnly say: "I think the gift I want to give you is the most scarce thing in our princess mansion."
Jing Yu said, clapped his hands and shouted: "Sledgehammer!"
The sledgehammer responded with a sound, then pushed a pull cart into the warehouse. Then, he came directly in front of Xu Ruyi and told Xu Ruyi: "Princess, please take two steps back, don't hurt you."
!”
Xu Ruyi frowned: "What are you..."
However, just when Xu Ruyi was guessing what they were up to, suddenly!
The sledgehammer shouted loudly and lifted the cart vertically to the ground. At this time, there was only a "crash" sound.
Pieces of gold ingots were smashed on the floor of the warehouse. Those gold ingots were marked with the word "pure gold". The colors were extremely bright, and they kept falling off the cart, one on top of the other.
The gold ingots couldn't be stacked on the spot and rolled towards the door.
Xu Ruyi quickly took two steps back.
But I have to say that the scene before her really shocked her.
This is actually the entire car’s gold ingot!
Jing Yu could see Xu Ruyi's surprise, and added: "That's not all! The other cars are all banknotes, and there are also some deeds for land and shops, all of which have been handed over to the princess's house!"
Xu Ruyi was stunned: "Sent it to the princess's mansion?"
Jing Yu replied cheerfully: "In other words, these are all for you, the princess. The princess's mansion is in dire need and needs funds to operate. I was thinking, you can't just turn a deaf ear if you don't speak up, right? So,
This is a small gift from me to you, I don’t know if you are satisfied with it or not.”
Xu Ruyi immediately froze on the spot.
You must know that even the most favored Princess Louyang today cannot obtain so much money from the Queen at once.
The entire car's worth of gold and silver notes may be enough to run the Princess Mansion for several years.
Xu Ruyi really couldn't imagine how a fifteen-year-old kid could make his business so prosperous.
Moreover, even if he had money, if he wanted to hide it in a cellar, there was nothing she could do. If they were to search his property by force, it would be meaningless for the couple to do it.
Therefore, she has always avoided talking about how much money he has.
Unexpectedly, he would actually hand it in!
Xu Ruyi couldn't help but feel a little surprised and praised: "Xiao Langjun, you are so considerate!"
After Jing Yu was praised, he felt equally pleased and humbly replied: "This is what I should do!"
Seeing Xu Ruyi busy taking care of the princess mansion, he couldn't just sit idle and act like someone who had nothing to do.
"There's more..." Jing Yu became more and more annoyed after seeing Xu Ruyi's surprise, "Do you know what I'm going to deal with this afternoon? Speaking of which, it's thanks to you that you gave me a face.
I had the opportunity to meet the eldest lady, and the eldest lady’s doctor admired the agarwood in my hand. Guess what? All the agarwood sold was sold out the next day! This afternoon, several big businessmen from other places came to see me.
Let’s talk about the business of promoting agarwood! The joy of making money is that as long as you dare to venture into it, the money will be like falling from the sky. Just picking up the money will make your hands cramp!”
Listening to Jing Yu's words, it seems that this little money is nothing to him.
Xu Ruyi then inquired: "How long will it take you to harvest this cart of gold ingots?"
When it comes to listening to poems and writing poems, Jing Yu was a little behind on his ability, but when it came to this matter, Jing Yu was so proud that he almost waggled his tail.
Jing Yu thought and raised his index finger.
"A year? A month? Or a day?"
Jing Yu replied: "Princess, please feel free to make a bold guess!"
To be honest, Xu Ruyi really didn't dare to guess. She really didn't dare to imagine that after marrying Jing Yu, the accumulated money in her hands would be more than the national treasury.
That's too scary...
But Xu Ruyi still tentatively guessed: "One day?"
"I knew the princess was smart! This is a day's income!"
One day's revenue is a carload of gold ingots?
Then living with Jing Yu, wouldn't it mean that the house is raining money all day long?
Xu Ruyi only expected that she would have enough food and clothing after marrying Jing Yu, but she never expected that the wealth in his hands would far exceed her imagination.
"Xiao Langjun, you are so promising!"
Jing Yu shushed: "Princess, actually this is a secret! My mother doesn't even know the true amount of my daily income and how much I can earn, so I'll tell you alone!"
These words really made Xu Ruyi feel comfortable. Xu Ruyi stepped forward and held Jing Yu's handsome face in her hands, and said happily: "Little Master, why are you so rare?"
Xu Ruyi just looked at Jing Yu, who was wearing a black tie and silk silk, and talked. Although the Zhou Dynasty had regulations that businessmen could only wear black and white clothes outside, in her opinion, this dress particularly suited him.
His temperament makes him feel energetic no matter how he looks at it.
"But having said that, we will definitely prepare some gifts for everyone in Guining tomorrow. You can prepare them now. If you still want to sell something, I won't stop you. You can make whatever you want with the princess's money, but
In front of officials, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, pay attention to propriety, and listen to my command at all times."
"Okay!" Jing Yu said and asked for permission, "Princess, can I change into clothes of another color tomorrow? After all, I am entering the palace as the consort!"
"Then what color do you want to wear?"
"Blue! The one with the white fur collar!"
"Okay, it's up to you."
As long as it was not a matter of principle, Xu Ruyi never argued with him. She would let him do whatever he liked.
Not long after, she told Sledgehammer: "Put these things away quickly and place them in the warehouse. Sledgehammer will be responsible for guarding this warehouse. These are the hard-earned money of the young man, so they cannot be stolen."
