Even the current emperor, his father, relies on his recommendations for everything he uses. In this world, you get what you pay for. Of course, there are cheap ones and so-called high-quality products, but they are still much more expensive...
Therefore, everything in his house, not to mention the paper for writing, even the firewood for burning, he wanted the best.
"It's natural that it's worth thousands of gold."
"So a piece of paper is enough for ordinary people's lives, right?"
"...That's natural."
"If your antique vase is sold, will the price be enough to feed and drink the people in a village for a month?"
"..." Rong Jin was a little silent, probably knowing where Jin Koko's words were going to start.
"There was a flood on the other side of the Yangtze River just now, right?"
"..."
"Is there no harvest at the northwest end?"
"..."
"The common people don't even have enough to eat, and there are some corrupt officials in the court who are deducting the food and salary distributed by the court, right?"
"..."
"Say!" Jin Kou Kou's voice jumped, "those people are so pitiful that they don't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes because of disasters from God. They may not know which big tree they are chewing bark under. You are a dignified person."
The Fourth Prince of the Jin Dynasty, the Four Treasures of the Study placed in the bookstore are all priceless, can you look at those antique vases and eat them...Are you embarrassed?"
"..." Rong Jin had a dark face, he... he was embarrassed...
"So..." Jin Koko cleared her throat, secretly watched Rong Jin's reaction, followed his expression, and said seriously, "I am secretly working for you, Your Majesty... nothing else.
Say, even if today’s wedding banquet...I
Admit it, shabby is a bit shabby... But you said that in front of the civil and military officials... Were they moved by you? Do they think you are the most attentive to the people's sentiments and caring about the people among those idiot princes?
Prince?"
She asked him, but when he saw that he didn't agree, she was probably muttering in her mind what she had just said to him. After talking so much, she felt a little thirsty. Jin Kouko walked to the table and picked up the Hexin wine that was meant for her wedding night.
One drink...
After drinking a little, Jin Koukou frowned slightly, ah, it was indeed mixed with water in advance, and the taste was really weird... But forget it, it's better to save a little.
Rong Jin listened to Jin Kou Kou's fallacies, neither laughing nor crying. He kept it in her mouth. The fault he pointed out just now became his fault?
Whatever...
Rong Jin turned around and looked at Jin Kou Kou, who was neither sitting nor standing. He didn't even have the strength to explain her posture.
"So according to what the princess said, starting from today, Prince Rong's Mansion will follow a simple path under your leadership? No more than wealth, no more than gold? And my precious calligraphy and paintings, etc., the fine wine sent by the father.
The jade dew, the princess has kept it all, just so that I can win the title of virtuous king outside?"
Jin Kouko imitated his words and shook her head silently, "That's natural..."
"Haha..." Rong Jin looked at her with a sneer, "I am not the kind of man who cares about women for a little money, so... my beloved concubine, have you thought of an excuse to sell my wives and concubines?
?”
"Don't say it's such a bad excuse..." Jin Kouko rolled her eyes and took a few steps, "Do you think...if they weren't worth anything, would I sell them?"
