Chapter 53

Si Lili asked in a deep voice.

"This prince never lies. As long as you agree, I can keep you now. Moreover, I will redeem you in advance. In a month, you can leave with this prince."

Qin Yu said.

"Haha! Your Highness, have you ever thought about what I can do if I leave Wutong Tower?"

Si Lili believed Qin Yu, but after a moment of silence, she smiled wryly and asked Qin Yu a question.

"The sea is wide for fish to leap, the sky is high for birds to fly! Once you leave Wutong Tower, the silver you earn from this prince will be no less than ten thousand taels. Isn't that enough for you to live on?"

Qin Yu said in a deep voice.

"Your Highness, have you forgotten that I am a prostitute, a lowly woman, and everyone looks down on me. If I leave here, I wonder how many people will be eager to eat me alive."

Si Lili said sadly.

After all, she was just a prostitute. She was treated like a star in Wutong Tower, but outside of Wutong Tower, she was nothing and didn't even have the ability to protect her own property.

This is the sorrow of the girls in brothels. If they are liked and supported by a man, they can live a comfortable life. But if they leave these men, their life will be extremely miserable.

At this moment, Qin Yu was silent.

In ancient times, women had a very low status!

Even if one is born into an aristocratic family, if one has no older brothers or younger brothers, after the death of one's parents, the family will be wiped out by collateral relatives!

After taking advantage of them, the lucky ones would be married off as tools for marriage alliances, while the unlucky ones would be sold directly to brothels, not to mention that they were women who came from brothels.

Qin Yu could even imagine that after Si Lili left Wutong Tower, she was kidnapped by a noble family and ravaged, leading to a miserable life in the second half of her life.

"This prince is going to the frontier. Once there, he will definitely need to set up business. You can follow me to the frontier and help me manage my business. Life there will definitely be better than here."

Qin Yu said.

"Your Highness, I have heard this kind of talk countless times. It's all just a deceptive scheme by men. A frontier fortress must be a bitter and cold place, nowhere near the prosperity of Kyoto!"

Si Lili didn't believe it.

"That's now. Once I get there, I can turn it into a paradise in three years at most!"

Qin Yu said.

He would never tell Si Lili that after he got there, he would take over the economy and military power, and then fight his way back!

However, three years was enough for him to transform the frontier into a paradise.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is truly aloof from worldly matters. Do you know how much manpower and resources are needed to build a city? Tens of millions of silver!"

"If Your Highness can earn one million taels of silver within three days, I will follow Your Highness to the border, and I will willingly give my body to you!"

"If not, Your Highness, please come directly. As for redeeming me, I will absolutely not agree!"

Si Lili said with a determined look and let go of her arms again.

"Okay! In three days, I promise to earn one million taels of silver. However, you must wear black silk stockings by then."

Qin Yu said.

He already had an idea of ​​how to make money quickly, but he was worried that making money so quickly would alert Emperor Liang, and he couldn't directly put forward a suitable agent, so he would be easily exposed.

Now Si Lili has agreed. Three days later, he will redeem Si Lili and make Si Lili his official agent. It is reasonable!
