Chapter 187 is richer than your treasury
No, it is indeed richer than your treasury." Mr. Sheng was not to be outdone.
The emperor lost his temper after being choked with one sentence.
"How about you buy shares privately and let Zhiyao help you make some money?" Mr. Sheng suggested.
This suggestion is very good. The emperor nodded quickly: "What kind of business are you planning to do?"
"Let's open a bank, what do you think?" Mr. Sheng said.
"Qianzhuang? Is it possible?" The emperor was a little doubtful.
"Don't worry, our Zhiyao can definitely do it. She has a unique skill and can make a lot of money." Mr. Sheng said proudly.
"Okay, let's give it a try, but you have to show me Zhiyao's ability before I agree to your investment. That's my private money." The emperor lowered his voice and said to Mr. Sheng.
But the voice was not quiet at all, and everyone present heard it.
The tea that Sheng Zhengye had just put in the teacup and drank squirted out.
Although it was not the first time that he saw his father and the emperor being disgusted with each other, he was still shocked when he heard that the emperor also had private money.
This move immediately attracted the attention of the two old men: "Zhengye, what are you doing?"
Sheng Zhengye's hands shook in fright at his father's voice, and the tea cup almost fell to the ground.
"No, there is nothing wrong with father." Sheng Zhengye explained quickly.
"Haha~ I know! Zhengye must be laughing at you for hiding your personal money."
"No, no, father, I didn't mean to laugh at Your Majesty." Sheng Zhengye waved his hands eagerly and explained, "I just didn't expect that His Majesty would hide his private money."
"What's this? Don't you want to hide it?" the emperor asked with raised eyebrows.
"I..." Sheng Zhengye was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer, "I just feel that the whole world is not the royal land, why does your Majesty need to hide private money." Sheng Zhengye finally held it in for a long time to say this.
"That's what I say, but you can't use the money in the treasury to do business, right?"
"Why not? We just want to open banks in the name of Shang Zhou, spread throughout the Shang Zhou Dynasty, and then open branches in Western Chu, Qi Qin, and Dong Liang." Mr. Sheng suddenly became excited as he spoke.
.
The emperor raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "This is a new thing. You can consider it. There isn't much money in the treasury anyway. I think it's better to give it a try."
"What is the emperor trying?" Sheng Zhiyao heard the emperor talking as soon as she walked to the front hall, but she didn't hear everything.
"I want to open a bank in the name of Shang Zhou Dynasty." Sheng Laohou said, looking at Sheng Zhiyao word by word.
"Isn't that just opening a national bank? I support it." Sheng Zhiyao nodded quickly in agreement.
"What is a bank? Why have I never heard of it?" The emperor looked at Mr. Sheng and said.
"It's a bank. Part of the money is used for poverty alleviation, and part of the money is used for merchants to invest in shops. The fees recovered can fill the national treasury, saving you money from the courtiers." Mr. Sheng said with disdain.
He glanced at the emperor.
"That's good, that's good. I'll have someone bring you the money after the meal." The emperor nodded and looked at Mr. Sheng and smiled with satisfaction.
"You're too impatient. We'll wait until Zhiyao and I make a plan. We'll go to the restaurant to eat first." Mr. Sheng glared at him and said angrily.
"Yes! Grandpa Huang, let's eat first, please come this way." Sheng Zhiyao led the emperor towards the restaurant.
Along the way, the emperor continued to discuss the bank affairs with Mr. Sheng, and did not stop until he saw a golden roast duck in the restaurant.
"Zhiyao, this roast duck is good, it tastes so delicious." The emperor asked after sitting down and looking at Sheng Zhiyao.
Sheng Zhiyao looked at what she had made and smiled: "Grandpa Huang, I will wrap a duck for you, please wait a moment."
Sheng Zhiyao washed her hands, took out a small kitchen knife and started to slice the duck. After a while, a fat and tender duck was dismantled, leaving only the bones.
She picked up a piece of lotus leaf pancake, wrapped it with duck meat and side dishes and handed it to the emperor: "Grandpa Huang, have a try."
The emperor took the duck meat and took a bite, then nodded: "Zhiyao's cooking skills are getting better and better. You always have some novel recipes. My imperial dining room is not as good as the small kitchen of your Marquis mansion."
"
"If Grandpa Huang likes it, I will teach Grandpa Yuan how to make it, so you can eat it when you want."
Sheng Zhiyao said, wrapping up another piece and handing it to the emperor: "Grandpa Huang, please eat more of this roast duck. This is very nourishing for the body."
The emperor nodded after hearing this: "Yes, okay."
"Eunuch Cui also sat down to eat."
"No, no, how can I have dinner with the Emperor and the Marquis?" Cui Eunuch hurriedly waved his hand and refused.
The emperor frowned when he heard this: "Okay, sit down! The smelly old man won't dislike you. Besides, it's not like we haven't eaten before."
"But..." Eunuch Cui was a little embarrassed.
Eunuch Cui's hesitant eyes fell on Sheng Zhiyao's face. Upon seeing this, Sheng Zhiyao immediately said to Eunuch Cui with a smile: "Eunuch Cui, please sit down quickly. There are no outsiders here."
Eunuch Cui had no choice but to bite the bullet and sit down.
The emperor saw Eunuch Cui sitting down and nodded with satisfaction: "Eat quickly, there won't be anything left later."
"Yes!" Eunuch Cui nodded and picked up the chopsticks.
"Eunuch Cui, you should drink more of this duck soup to take care of your body." Sheng Zhiyao said and scooped a bowl of soup for Eunuch Cui. Eunuch Cui was flattered.
"Thank you, Princess, I will come by myself."
"Eunuch Cui, you have to live in the Marquis Mansion these days. If you are still so polite, I can't live with you anymore. It's too tiring." Sheng Zhiyao complained, and Eunuch Cui felt warm in his heart when he heard this.
"Yes! I know," Cui Eunuch replied in a low voice, then lowered his head and took a sip of soup.
"Eunuch Cui, don't call me princess. Just like Grandpa Huang, call me Zhiyao." Sheng Zhiyao said and looked at the emperor.
"Yes, I think that should be the case. You can be considered an elder who watched her grow up." The emperor looked at Eunuch Cui with a smile and said.
Eunuch Cui smiled and nodded: "Yes."
Eunuch Cui looked at the child in front of him and thought about the scene when she was born, and he felt emotional in his heart.
In the years when the old marquis left the capital with Sheng Zhiyao, the emperor talked about it every day in the palace. No one quarreled with him, and he rarely saw the emperor's smile.
Everyone enjoyed the meal happily, and Eunuch Cui was no longer restrained and happily ate and chatted with everyone. The emperor and Mr. Sheng drank happily, drinking glass after glass of wine.
People are already drunk.
Fortunately, Shenghou Mansion has always prepared a room for the emperor.
Sheng Zhengye and Cui Eunuch supported the drunken emperor and Sheng Laohou back to Qingliu Courtyard. Cui Eunuch settled the emperor properly before going out with peace of mind.
Sheng Zhiyao went to his mother's room and looked at Qi Xinyue who was sleeping soundly. He checked her body and found nothing unusual before feeling relieved.
However, Sheng Zhiyao would not let Feng Yuanqing go so easily when it came to kidnapping his mother.
"Hongxue, secretly sprinkle this medicine on Feng Yuanqing's bed." Sheng Zhiyao sat beside Qi Xinyue's bed with a gloomy expression.
