She became a god

Chapter 397 Young Couple, Deeply in Love

Feng Yanyan felt agitated as she looked at the proposal.

She would have considered the feasibility of this proposal before officially taking over clan affairs.

But now... she wouldn't even glance at a large project like this, which has too high an investment cost and is outside her field.

As the saying goes, you don't know the cost of firewood and rice until you're in charge of the household.

Since taking over clan affairs, Feng Yanyan has unknowingly lowered her standard of living.

Whenever she sees a project with high expenses, she always weighs it carefully and tries to save costs wherever possible.

Although the demon realm is known for its wealth and the phoenix clan is known for its riches, there are still many places where money needs to be spent.

The welfare policies for the lower classes in the demon realm have always been the most comprehensive and perfect in the six realms, and naturally, good welfare policies cost more money.

There is an unwritten rule in the demon realm that 30% of the annual tax revenue goes to the incumbent demon lord, and 70% goes to the treasury.

Of the 70% of tax revenue received by the Treasury each year, 20% was used for welfare policies, 30% for military supplies, and the last 20% for emergency funds.

Funds for military supplies and welfare policies must not be touched, and emergency funds generally cannot be touched either.

If we really want to increase investment in the Zhao Sect, then we can only use money from the Demon Lord Feng Jiaojiao's private treasury.

Even if Feng Jiaojiao agreed, the Phoenix Clan would not agree.

Of the 30% of taxes that Feng Jiaojiao used to receive, 20% would be transferred into the Feng clan's assets.

If too much investment is given to the Zhao Sect, wouldn't the Phoenix Clan's assets decrease?

This Zhaojiao isn't a project that Feng Jiaojiao founded and fully controls. Only someone insane would agree to Ji Cunxi's proposal.

However, the procedures still need to be followed.

After receiving Feng Jiaojiao's rejection, Feng Yanyan did not hesitate any longer and wrote a rebuttal letter, which she sent back to the Yu Kingdom with her subordinates.

When Longyan brought in the pastries, he saw her displeased expression and asked gently, "My lady, have you encountered some trouble?"

"Nothing much. Just got rid of someone who wanted money."

Longyan said, "What's the big deal? It's not like we're short of money."

Feng Yanyan laughed at him, "Yan Yan is too naive. If that request were granted, a hundred years of investment would almost be equivalent to a top-grade spiritual vein."

Longyan was taken aback. "So much money?"

It should be noted that Longyan is widely regarded as the number one rich and beautiful woman in the Six Realms because her dowry included a top-grade spiritual vein.

He was quite proud of his dowry; a whole high-grade spiritual vein was more than enough to support him and his family, Qingluan, for a lifetime.

If it weren't for his mother's love for him, and the fact that the Dragon Princess was his twin sister, how could he have received such a generous dowry!

This is such an expensive project; it can bankrupt a top-grade spiritual vein in just a hundred years.

Thinking of this, Longyan couldn't help but feel indignant. "Which bastard dares to make such an outrageous request? I'll have my sister beat her to death!"

Feng Yanyan held down the agitated Long Yan, "Alright! A'Rao is busy, so don't bother her. I've already resolved this matter, so don't be angry anymore."

Longyan smiled sweetly, "I'll listen to Yanyan. But Yanyan, can you tell me why you were still in a bad mood even after the matter was resolved?"

"Because my aunt is very disappointed in me?"

"Huh? How could that be? Doesn't your aunt love you the most?"

“She thought I was being too cautious and told me that if something so outrageous happened in the future, I should handle it myself and not ask her. She hoped that I could be more assertive, handle all government affairs independently, and avoid contacting her if possible.”

Longyan laughed and said, "This is a good thing! If my sister knew that Auntie was willing to give you so much power, she would be so envious!"

“Delegating power is certainly a good thing, but my aunt hopes that I will be able to completely suppress and handle all affairs within the clan in a hundred years, and have the ability to oversee the political affairs of the entire demon realm in two hundred years. I know my aunt means well, but the timeframe is too tight.”

Longyan pondered for a moment, then guessed, "Yangyang, your aunt wouldn't be thinking of abdicating in your favor early, would she?"

Feng Yanyan's eyes darkened slightly; what Long Yan could guess, she could guess as well.

A princess who doesn't want to be the emperor is not a qualified princess.

She wasn't unmoved by the idea of ​​ascending the throne ahead of schedule!

But as I said before, time was too tight.

Her qualifications and experience were insufficient to take over her aunt's job.

But why is my aunt in such a hurry to retire?

When Feng Yanyan asked this question, Long Yan gave an answer from his perspective as a young man: "As the saying goes, once an old house catches fire, there's no saving it. Auntie is only now finding someone she likes, so she must want to stay home with her and live her own little life, rather than continue to be busy with those endless national and family affairs."

Upon hearing this, Feng Yanyan initially thought Long Yan's idea was too sentimental, but upon closer examination, it wasn't impossible.

My aunt was always busy with cultivation, fighting, and handling government affairs, and she didn't have many days of leisure.

Feng Yangyang and Ye Qingzhou had a fair amount of contact, though not many.

She could tell that Ye Qingzhou was a second-generation demon who really enjoyed life, and he always exuded a youthful and free spirit.

Perhaps it was that youthful and free spirit that deeply attracted my aunt.

Although my aunt always said that she got close to Ye Qingzhou for the sake of the Phoenix Clan's eternal prosperity, the happiness she felt when she was with Ye Qingzhou was undeniable.

If it is Aunt's wish to put aside the heavy responsibilities of the Phoenix Clan and the Demon Realm and live a carefree life with Ye Qingzhou, then she will naturally grant it.

"Yan Yan, you go back first, I'll look at the government documents for a while longer."

Upon hearing this, Longyan glared at her resentfully, "How can we have children if you act like this? If we don't have children, they will keep demanding that you take a husband to serve them. I hate them!"

Feng Yanyan said, "No, I only love you. You are my only husband in this life."

Because of this saying, many years later, even though Phoenix Terrace was filled with all kinds of handsome men from the Six Realms, Long Yan still firmly believed that Feng Yanyan only loved him, and that the other men were just little toys for Feng Yanyan to satisfy her physical needs.

At this moment, Longyan nestled shyly in Feng Yangyang's arms, his heart as sweet as if he had eaten honey.

He thought that he and she were childhood sweethearts, and their love was deep.

If love between two people is destined to last, why should they be together every day and night?

His wife is busy with her career, and he can't let her down!

Long Yan struggled to suppress the urge to stay in Feng Yanyan's arms. He straightened his clothes, not daring to look at his wife, and then mustered up his courage to make a domineering demand: "You must accompany me to Crescent Lake for a trip in thirty years."

A woman's magnetic laughter filled his ears, "Okay!"

Happiness is hard to contagious, but pain can be transferred.

Ye Qingzhou, holding the invitation, was in great pain.

"Huh? You really think I'm easy to bully? You expect me to figure out how to persuade the investors to change my doctrines???"
