The farmer has a mall

Chapter 677

Besides, as the Minister of the Household Department, you are not afraid that the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Punishment will turn against you if you give money to Gu Nanyan from other departments?
Huangfu Yi looked at the other five books, but heard that they were very enthusiastic and expressed their willingness to cooperate.

Huangfuyi: ...Damn it.

He was afraid that his ass was kicked by that woman, and his mind was not clear.

But they don't know that the six ministers think that they are forward-looking good officials, and they can't just look at immediate interests.

With Gu Nanyan joining, the national treasury will only become more abundant, and they will still be short of money by then.

Especially the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War, the two directly beneficiary departments, they have been coveting the good things in Gu Nanyan's hands for a long time.

What mechanical clock mechanical fan, steam car big steel cannon, only one of them can make them compromise.

Not to mention there are other things besides these.

They only need to pay a certain amount of money every year to obtain the right to purchase these good things that they have not been able to obtain through hard work before, so why not do it.

It's just too cost-effective!
The other courtiers also had the same idea. Each of them had a shop under their name. If these things could be introduced into Daliang Kingdom, they would definitely be the first to benefit.

He Chou can't make a lot of money.

There was a very harmonious scene in Daliang Guochaotang. For the first time in history, all the officials were united, and no one raised objections.

Only Wei Hong sat in the wheelchair silently.

As the uncle of the person concerned, it is really difficult for him to express his opinion.

Finally, after discussions among the ministers, the price was finally set at 80 taels.

This is already the maximum amount that the national treasury can bear after excluding necessary expenses.

After all, the Daliang Kingdom is not as powerful as the other two countries, and even the Jianan Kingdom was not as powerful as them when they were at their worst. It is indeed sincere to be able to squeeze out 80 taels a year.

Prince Lu was very satisfied with the result, and asked Wei Hong's opinion with a smile.

Wei Hong: "...I'm afraid I have to ask Miss Nan about this matter." He said awkwardly.

They are discussing in full swing here, so the parties must agree to it.

"It's natural." Prince Lu didn't feel embarrassed, still smiling kindly.

In order to prevent Gu Nanyan from refusing again, he decided to make a bigger move.

"This king and the emperor proposed yesterday that if Princess Sheng accepts the imperial concubine, Daliang is willing to offer the two most prosperous cities as her fiefs, and only need to pay [-]% of the tax every year. This is something that has never happened since the founding of the country. .”

The Princess of Daliang has no fief, and now she is given a separate fief, which is still the two most prosperous ones, which is considered very preferential treatment, which is unprecedented.

He didn't believe that under such conditions, Gu Nanyan could still refuse!

It was his miscalculation yesterday, he saw that she was not afraid of power and not greedy for power, but he didn't expect that she would bow down for five buckets of rice with such a status.

This time is different, Prince Lu thinks that he has thoroughly seen through Gu Nanyan this time, and there will never be any situation beyond his control again.

So he smiled confidently and went back to the palace with confidence, waiting for good news from Wei Hong.

But reality gave him a hard kick.

"Miss Biao said that she is not the princess, and whoever loves the two cities will want it." The housekeeper said with a dull face.

Xu Shi himself felt ashamed, so he didn't even write a personal letter this time, and asked him to pass the message directly.

The housekeeper refused in his heart, but he had no choice but to bow his head under the eaves, and finally came to the palace with difficulty step by step.

"And why!"

Prince Lu is in a bad mood, and he really can't understand how a little girl like Gu Nanyan can be so elusive!

Isn't this treatment good enough?

None of his serious royal relatives are treated so well!

Seeing that Prince Lu's face turned blue, the steward was afraid of making him angry, so he hurriedly wiped off his sweat and explained: "My lord, please calm down, our master asked this old servant to tell you that the two cities might as well be forgotten. "

Prince Lu was startled: "What do you mean?"

Why couldn't he understand, he purposely added two cities and the other party didn't want it, so why did he lower the price himself?
Was Wei Hong joking with him?

"It's counterproductive, 80 taels is enough, Miss Biao is lazy and impatient to care about these things." When the butler said this, he felt sorry for Gu Nan.

Those are two cities!

Excluding the cost of urban operation, at least 10,000+ taels of tax can be collected in a year, and the two cities are 40 million taels!
Not to mention the most prosperous land, how much money was earned in that year.

Pushing out such a large piece of fat with his own mouth, the butler's heart was bleeding from the pain.

But it was useless for him to be distressed, the master didn't persuade Miss Biao.

The housekeeper once again saw Gu Nanyan sitting with Erlang's legs crossed.

Attached a disdainful sentence: "I like to get something for nothing, and I want to let me work for a few 10 taels, no way!".

housekeeper:"……"

It's a crime to think about it.

I don't know who Miss Biao's unbeatable temperament resembles, and his master is not like that either.

The housekeeper was so tired that he was about to die, but Prince Lu hadn't recovered from it for a long time.

If he wasn't too old-fashioned, what the housekeeper meant...was he giving too much?
Whenever a high bid becomes a reason for rejection!
Is this Gu Nanyan mentally ill?

Prince Lu felt that he had lived his whole life in the struggle for imperial power, but he couldn't even understand the thoughts of a little girl, so it was really a waste of time.

"Are you sure your prime minister said so?"

Are you sure you don't think the two cities are too few, how many more do you want?

Prince Lu asked again without giving up.

The housekeeper bowed and said, "My master indeed said so."

Prince Lu was silent.

This is the first time I saw someone haggling for a lower price.

Is it so difficult to guess what young people think now?
He sent the butler away, sat in the study for two hours thinking, and didn't even eat lunch.

After scratching his head, he couldn't understand what the other party was playing, so he waved his hand and boarded the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion again.

After asking clearly that this was indeed Gu Nanyan's idea, not the housekeeper's miscommunication, he was carried back to the mansion by his servants in a daze.

In the afternoon, he called Huangfu Ruyue to the study room, stroked her head, with a look of pity and intolerance.

"Good boy, I have suffered you."

Meeting such an elusive sister-in-law, the child is afraid that he will suffer a lot in the future.

"Grandfather is the master, add another [-]% to your dowry!" Prince Lu sighed.

That's all he can do. I hope Wei Hong will protect his granddaughter more because of her generous dowry.

... If you can't protect yourself, at least try to reduce the contact between the two of you.

He really didn't dare to imagine what would happen to his granddaughter with such a simple and honest character in Gu Nanyan's hands.

"You're a good boy. Grandfather is sorry for you in this matter."

Fortunately, he had been inquired about. Ning Tianlu is a very good young man. He is upright and kind, but also responsible. He will definitely be a qualified husband.

Huangfu Ruyue looked at his grandfather suspiciously and sighed, not understanding what his grandfather meant by saying this suddenly.

Although she was puzzled, she was an obedient girl. Her grandfather didn't take the initiative to tell her, and she didn't ask.

only……

Huangfu Ruyue blushed and asked: "Grandfather said, let father go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to inquire about the granddaughter's marriage, I wonder if the other party will agree?"

She rubbed her toes in embarrassment, looking extremely cramped.

Prince Lu was very surprised.

His granddaughter had always been shy, and she seldom said anything on weekdays, but she even took the initiative to ask about her marriage.

This is the first time ever.

"I've been busy these days, and your father hasn't come to the door yet."

Seeing that his granddaughter's mood was visibly depressed, Prince Lu hurriedly added: "Don't worry, I think Prime Minister Wei also intends to facilitate this marriage, so there shouldn't be any major problems."

"Really?" Huangfu Ruyue blinked her big eyes, her joy was beyond words.
