Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 154: Raising the price from the ground up

Chapter 154

"Your Majesty, the national treasury now has a lot of silver..." Wu Siyu wanted to say that the national treasury has a lot of silver. If they took it all away, how would they deal with emergencies in the future?

"If the silver can save the lives of thousands of people in our Nanyue country, then it can be said that they have played their due value. If the Chuyuan country really wants to attack us, do you think those silver coins can still be kept?" Nan Fengrui thought that if the silver could save their lives, then spend it, but he was afraid of problems that the silver could not solve.

"I'm afraid that the Chu Yuan Kingdom will not keep its word and will raise the price again." Zhou Zhi said in a low voice.

After all, if that were not the case, why would the Nanyue Kingdom blow up their city walls twice in one day?

"Could it be that someone has done something again and angered Chu Yuanguo?" Qu Wenlin asked in a low voice.

"Lord Qu, the question you asked is really ridiculous. We are all here, who can provoke the Chu Yuan Kingdom?" Zhou Zhi on the side said disapprovingly.

"Sir Zhou, we in Nanyue Kingdom have no way to offend the people of Chuyuan Kingdom, but doesn't Chuyuan Kingdom still have hostages in their hands?" Qu Wenlin said in a low voice.

After all, this matter was caused by their third princess. Who knows if the third princess would do something else to anger the people of Chu Yuan Kingdom.

Nan Fengrui, who was originally calm, listened to this.

He instantly lost his composure. If Nan Zhiyi had really done something wrong again, he would definitely not let her off easily when he came back.

Thinking of this, Nan Fengrui thought that everything that happened today was caused by Nan Zhiyi.

Nan Fengrui looked at Qu Wenlin who had just spoken. Wasn’t this person pointing at him?

"My dear Lord Qu, what do you think I should do?" Nan Fengrui asked Qu Wenlin unhappily.

Although all of this was caused by Nan Zhiyi, Nan Zhiyi was still his daughter after all.

It is not up to others to question how to deal with the matter.

"Your Majesty, I dare not." Qu Wenlin knelt down quickly at this time, not daring to say anything.

His eyes kept glancing at Zhou Zhi standing beside him.

Nan Zhiyi is the niece of their Zhou family.

Zhou Zhi understood Qu Wenlin's meaning very well. It was because Nan Zhiyi was the daughter of the Imperial Concubine, and the Imperial Concubine was his daughter Zhou Ru.

At this time, Zhou Zhi no longer even dared to think about saving Nan Zhiyi. He only hoped that this time, the seventh prince born by the imperial concubine would not be affected.

"Okay, the most urgent thing is to prevent Chu Yuanguo from attacking us first!" Nan Fengrui said impatiently.

No one dared to say anything. This problem was easier said than done. However, it was not so easy to do it.

At this time, it was getting dark.

Qingfeng stood aside, feeling that his master had been keeping a low mood ever since he met the Princess of Nanyue Kingdom.

"Master, there is an envoy from the Nanyue Kingdom outside who wants to see you." Qingfeng said in a low voice.

"No!" Chu Haojue had a strong desire to destroy the Nanyue Kingdom.

"Your Highness, the envoys from Nanyue Kingdom seem to have brought the silver you wanted." Qingfeng had just taken a sneak peek and saw that the envoys had brought many boxes with them.

I think the box should be filled with silver.

"It's too late. Go and tell their envoys the truth about what their good princess has done, and tell them that without three million taels, it will be difficult to suppress my anger this time." Chu Haojue thought that his eyes were dirty and he needed to wash them with silver, which would require a lot of silver.

Otherwise, her wife will feel that she is not clean when she returns home.

One million taels is not enough to clean it up, it will take three million taels!

"Sir, this..." Na Tu was shocked.

Is their princess so fierce?

She actually dared to seduce the second prince of Chu Yuan Kingdom.

But I secretly dislike her. You said, go ahead and seduce her, but at least you can seduce her!

Now, the seduction failed and I have to pay so much money as compensation.

Three million taels!

Na Tu could already imagine that if he went back and told their emperor now that the amount of silver demanded by the Second Prince of Chu Yuan Kingdom had increased from one million taels to three million taels, he didn't dare to think about whether he would still be alive by then.

I was also angry at Nan Zhiyi for provoking this plague god.

"Sir Zhou, what do you think we should do about this?" Na Tu looked at Zhou Zhi with a worried look on his face and asked.

"How much silver did the emperor ask you to bring?" Zhou Zhi asked with a long sigh.

"Two million taels!" Na Tu said quickly.

Nan Fengrui was afraid that Chu Haojue would not be willing to buy one million vehicles, so he doubled the price to show his sincerity.

Now, they already know that the second prince of Chu Yuan Kingdom raised the price because their third princess used some bad tactics on him.

"Let me think about this." Zhou Zhi felt that even if he gave up everything the Zhou family had, it would be difficult to raise one million taels of silver.

And the Seventh Prince...

Zhou Zi sighed, thinking that the Seventh Prince probably didn't have much silver to give.

"Sir, this matter cannot be delayed. What if the Second Prince of Chu Yuan Kingdom raises the price again..." Na Tu reminded nervously.

"Got it!" Na Tu did not dare to delay and quickly asked his family to raise money. Finally, he decided to go find the Seventh Prince.

"Why should I pay for this money?" The seventh prince was very angry.

Nan Xiujie was very distressed. Why did he have such a troublesome sister?

Not only did she fail to complete the task, but she also asked him to pay money to save her.

In his opinion, it would be better for that person to die in Chu Yuan State.

“Your Highness, if we don’t rescue the princess in time, and she does something else that angers the Second Prince of Chu Yuan Kingdom again, the consequences will be…” Zhou Zhi sighed and reminded the Seventh Prince to always put the overall situation first.

"Father won't give us money?" Nan Xiujie asked with a frown after the Seventh Prince finished speaking.

"Your Majesty, the national treasury has already paid out two million taels of silver. I think this is the most the national treasury can give." Zhou Zhi said nervously.

"Okay, Grandfather, you should know that although I have divided the Prince's Palace, I don't have much silver to embezzle. Six hundred thousand taels is already my limit." In fact, Nan Xiujie didn't want to pay a penny.

But he also knew that if the matter got out of hand, he would be the one who would be most affected. After all, it would be beneficial to him if he could minimize the impact.

"Yes, I know!" Zhou Zhi thought that if the Seventh Prince could give 600,000 taels, the Zhou family would be under less pressure.

Fortunately, the mansion was able to scrape together 400,000 taels of silver.

Zhou Zhi hurried back to the border with one million taels of silver and handed the silver to Na Tu.

"Hurry up and find the people from Chu Yuan State." Zhou Zhi was afraid that if they went too late, the people from Chu Yuan State would raise the price again.

"Your Highness, the envoy from Nanyue Kingdom is here again." Qingfeng ran over and said.

"You didn't tell them what I meant? Without three million taels of silver, this matter cannot be resolved." Chu Haojue was suspicious. Could it be that the three million taels of silver from the Nanyue Kingdom did not cause any serious consequences?

If that's the case, he still wants less.
