The princess only wants to get rich and support her family
Chapter 239: Brothers settle accounts clearly and use clever tricks to collect payment
Qi Siriao's voice was inexplicably gentle, as if he was in the clouds, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
She seemed to have forgotten how long it had been since she had changed into new clothes. If he hadn't mentioned it, she really wouldn't have remembered.
But now that money is needed everywhere, where is there any spare money to buy clothes?
After thinking about it, I decided to go into the space and find Liu Ruofeng to exchange some maternity clothes. If that doesn’t work, I’ll ask Wen Ruoxue for some…
"I have some spare money." He took out his purse and poured it out. Only a few copper coins fell into his palm, which was not even enough to buy an egg.
Hu Luanfei paused, but didn't say anything that would hurt him: "Forget it, I'll buy it when the economy is better. I still have a few sets of clothes at home, so there's no need to rush."
Qi Siriao was just about to say something polite like "It's unfair to her", but Hu Luanfei didn't give him the chance and took the planned design draft to the East Street.
At this time Qiu Xu arrived and hurriedly called her to stop him, saying that he wanted to talk about the opening of Baihualou.
With all these things piling up together, Hu Luanfei suddenly realized how much pressure he was under.
She said a lot and planned many things. When she stopped to drink a cup of tea, Qi Siliao and Qiu Xu discussed in a low voice what she had just said.
Because the theme was too avant-garde and they could not digest it at all, Hu Luanfei had to throw the design draft to them.
The design draft is simple, clear and concise, and people can understand it instantly at a glance.
Zuiyue Tower, Zuixing Tower and Zuixi Tower were renovated at the same time. The project was relatively large and would take at least half a month.
During this period, Qi Siriao's project could not be started due to funding issues.
Five days have passed, and Zuihualou's daily income has been used to fill the dam.
Hu Luanfei leaned on the window sill with his head down, watching the busy people in Zuihualou. He heard Qi Siliao's voice again, in a tone without much emotion: "Did you get your gold back?"
Hu Luanfei was startled by his sudden voice and accidentally bit the stone. The pain made her voice tremble: "I urged him once a day, but Xuanyuan Yuchuan was blind and deaf and didn't take my words seriously."
"Are you still going to take that deal?"
Hu Luanfei endured the pain and tried to keep his tone calm, "Of course I want it. Two thousand five hundred taels of gold. Only a fool would not want it. But Xuanyuan Yuchuan doesn't care about it."
"He is your brother. I think it's better to forget about this account book."
"Can't count."
But before she could act, Qi Si Liao said, "I have a plan. I wonder if you are willing to carry it out."
Hu Luanfei stopped what he was doing and listened blankly.
Within two days, a drama took place in Beiqiu City.
The ranch managed by a nobleman was besieged by an epidemic, but his princess saved the ranch with her miraculous healing skills.
But the noble prince was narrow-minded. The princess of another country only bought a few barrels of cow and sheep milk and two carts of eggs from him, but he demanded a high price for the goods. The princess of another country calculated the amount of medicinal materials needed to treat the noble prince's ranch, and sent someone to deliver the bill, but the noble prince refused to pay.
At the end of the play, his princess burst into tears and spoke passionately: "I wanted to help him, but why did he think that everything I did was what I should do?"
"Business dealings, payment details, I paid for the goods, why is he refusing to pay me?"
"If you can't be a gentleman, how can you be the head of a family?"
The plot of the play is so familiar that as the plot becomes popular, public opinion ferments.
Only the characters in the play have changed, and people can guess that the noble young man is the current crown prince of Beiqiu, and his princess is Princess Daqian Zhan, the only candidate ordered by the king of Beiqiu to take over Beiqiu's animal husbandry.
In theory, managers have an obligation to rescue cattle and sheep, but the necessary expenses must be reimbursed by the national treasury.
Not only did the young man refuse to reimburse the money, he also sold the products to his princess at a high price. This is really unkind and he does not know how to repay a favor.
His princess was calculating and calculating the expenses, and her messenger who delivered the order was refused. How could such an untrustworthy person be able to take on such a big responsibility?
At the same time, public opinion reached the palace.
Xuanyuan Li glared at Xuanyuan Yuchuan who was kneeling below him with a stern face, "She is your sister. What's wrong with asking you for some milk and eggs? Are you short of that little bit of silver?"
Xuanyuan Yuchuan was criticized but said nothing.
Xuanyuan Li was extremely angry. "Prince Princess Zhan brought several truckloads of rare injection drugs to treat cattle and sheep. Why don't you pay her back?"
"She didn't ask at the time."
Xuanyuan Li: "Then you still have the nerve to ask her to pay your bill?"
Xuanyuan Yuchuan took out the letter Hu Luanfei had written to him before, in which she said she wanted to order some cow and sheep milk and eggs from him. "She wrote clearly that it was an order, not a direct request. We were talking about business, and what she wanted was silver."
Xuanyuan Li was almost angered by Xuanyuan Yuchuan. Even if he didn't faint, he was not in a good condition. He was so angry that he pointed at Xuanyuan Yuchuan and couldn't speak.
Finally, he shook his sleeves and said, "You, you money-grubber!"
There was no way out. The rumors among the people were unpleasant and had a bad impact on the prince's reputation. Xuanyuan Li could only clean up his son's mess. He opened the national treasury and, according to the list sent by Princess Zhan, packed enough gold and sent it to Zuihua Tower.
Hu Luanfei looked at the several large boxes of gold that were brought in, his face shining with gold, and he was extremely shocked.
She waited for a while, and seeing that everyone was very quiet, she couldn't help but ask softly, "Is this true?"
"Really." Qi Siliao said two words, and then motioned Hu Luanfei to look outside the door.
Xuanyuan Yuchuan walked in with a gloomy face and looked unhappy. When Hu Luanfei saw him, he didn't mention whether they were brothers or sisters, and snorted coldly: "Come on, send him away."
She didn't welcome Xuanyuan Yuchuan now, and suddenly realized how selfish Xuanyuan Yuchuan was. But no one listened to her. Xuanyuan Yuchuan was the prince, so who dared to drive him away?
Unexpectedly, the usually sinister prince's eyes turned red in front of everyone when he saw so much gold being given away...
That's right. He suddenly grasped Qi Siliao's wrist and said through gritted teeth: "Your wife is a profiteer and a money-grubber!"
Everyone was stunned and secretly complained in their hearts: Aren’t you just a money-grubber?
However, no one dared to show it, only Hu Luanfei dared to mock him in public, "I prepared those drugs carefully, and the needles are even more difficult to make. It took me a lot of effort to make one. The journey is long, so the price is a little higher. Sister has already discounted it by half, I hope you don't despise it. By the way, brothers should settle accounts clearly, and no credit is allowed."
Xuanyuan Yuchuan was even more unhappy, "Your price is too high..."
Hu Luanfei interrupted him: "Why didn't you tell me that the prices were so high?"
The prices in Beiqiu are indeed high, but because of the good environment, the beef and mutton raised here are delicious, and the fruits and vegetables grown here are tasty and sweet, and are quite popular among people from all over the world.
Hu Luanfei knew this and also planned to develop his own business overseas, but he lacked the ability and was still taking root in other people's feet.
Xuanyuan Yuchuan was speechless after hearing Hu Luanfei's words. He always thought that the prices in Beiqiu were normal, so how could they be high?
Fortunately, Hu Luanfei didn't say anything more. Guests are welcome, and it doesn't matter whether they are seen off or not. There is nothing more joyful than getting the money.
