After Qin Rushuang finished speaking, seeing that Xie Xun didn't answer, she couldn't help but ask, "Would the prince think that I'm too utilitarian if I say this?"
"No, I think you are very cute."
Qin Rushuang was originally very proud, but suddenly felt a little embarrassed when she heard these words.
Qian Ertong was still there, and Xie Xun had always been reserved. This was the first time he praised himself in front of outsiders, and it was a word like "cute" that had nothing to do with him.
Qin Rushuang had no choice but to cough dryly and change the topic.
"Oh, by the way, the prince helped me before, and I have been thinking about giving something back to the prince. The prince will see if there is any property he likes that can be allocated to the prince's name, or I can just give the prince a sum of money directly.
"
Xie Xun shook his head and said, "I don't need this."
He paused for a moment and then said: "If you are really grateful and want to repay me with something, then why don't I hand over all the palace's properties to you for custody."
Speaking of which, Xie Xun is the poorest among the princes.
Firstly, he was unwilling to use his power to make money like the fourth prince, and secondly, he did not make deals with some private businessmen and use his power to benefit from them.
He only had some assets originally allocated to him by Emperor Qi, as well as the silver stored in the mansion's warehouse, and some gold, silver and jewelry.
Compared to other princes who were powerful and wealthy, he could really be considered a bit poor.
Qin Rushuang tilted her head and asked: "Your Majesty, why do you want to hand over all your assets to me for safekeeping?"
Xie Xun smiled and said, "Because I just listened to your and Qian Ertong's explanation, and I feel that your idea of doing business is very reasonable. The money you have for a while will always be spent. Only by letting money make money can money grow."
There will be more and more.”
"I will leave all the money to you for safekeeping, and it will naturally become more and more. I don't want to taste the temporary sweetness. What I want is a huge profit in the future."
He said this, but in fact he just wanted to hand over the power of the palace steward to Qin Rushuang.
Sure enough, Qin Rushuang thought for a moment and said, "That's okay. I'll assign a few useful shopkeepers to manage these assets for the prince. I'll definitely make more money than you did before."
Xie Xun took advantage of the victory and said, "Then I will also give you the key to the palace's warehouse. There is still some money in the palace. See if you can invest it in the Du family. How about I give you a 50-50 share of the money earned by then?"
Qin Rushuang didn't know what Xie Xun was thinking. She just felt that this decision could not only help Xie Xun, repay his help to her, but also make herself some money...
In short, it was just a pure businessman's idea, so he nodded and agreed.
Next, Qin Rushuang and Qian Ertong checked the accounts again.
Qin Rushuang had a rough idea of the money she had earned these days and was in a very good mood.
When I came out of the small building of Du's Chamber of Commerce, the smile on my face didn't fade away for a long time.
She saw the branch of Du's Rouge Shop next to her, so she said, "Let's go in and have a look. I haven't gone shopping for a long time, so I went to buy some rouge and buy some for Qingzhi."
Qian Ertong nodded, "Then let's go together. Princess, didn't you leave the rouge shop to Gu Meiren to take care of? Gu Meiren runs on both sides, and sometimes she is here. Maybe we can meet her today.
.”
Qian Ertong's mouth is quite good.
When they went to the Rouge Shop branch, Gu Meiren was still there, but as soon as they arrived at the door of the Rouge Shop, they heard Gu Meiren's voice.
"Who is looking for me? Is that person here again? Let him go away! Don't come to me again, it's annoying!"
"What? You don't want to see me?" Qin Rushuang asked with a smile.
There were rapid footsteps inside, and then Gu Meiren opened the curtain and walked out.
"It's the princess and the prince. Why don't you welcome the princess? Princess, come in quickly."
"Speaking of which, I haven't chatted with the princess for a long time since she handed over the rouge shop to me. Some new products have been launched these days. Princess, come and take a look, choose some and take them back. Oh, by the way, don't forget
I’ll take one for Miss Qingzhi too.”
She was always thinking about Qin Rushuang and Qingzhi in her heart, and she would think of anything good for them.
Qin Rushuang was in a good mood, so she went in to choose from a lot of rouge. When she went out, Xie Xun secretly gave the money to Gu Meiren.
Gu Meiren whispered: "Didn't I tell you that I gave it to the princess?"
Xie Xun smiled, "Just think that I bought it for the princess. Besides, do they need you to give it to them? This rouge shop has been given to Qingzhi by Rushuang."
He made a joke and said, "You just work for Boss Qingzhi, right?"
Gu Meiren smiled, "Yes, yes, my big boss is the princess, my second boss is Miss Qingzhi, and I am just a small shopkeeper!"
Qin Rushuang had already left, but when she saw Gu Meiren still standing at the door, she suddenly thought of something and turned back.
"Who did you tell to get out just now? Did someone come to bother you during my absence?"
When Gu Meiren heard this, her face turned blue and white. She seemed a little happy, but also a little annoyed.
He opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't tell the truth, "He's just a person who doesn't know what he means. Princess, don't worry about him."
Qin Rushuang was intrigued by her and said with a smile: "Is the suitor here to bother you? But you don't dare to have a heart-to-heart relationship with him because of your status?"
Hearing this, Xie Xun quickly distanced himself from the relationship, "I have told Meiren a long time ago that if she likes someone, I can change her identity and buy her an asset so that she can be a good person in the future.
People don't have to waste their lives in Prince Huai's mansion."
When Gu Meiren heard this, her face was still a little tangled.
"Forget it...it's impossible for me to be with him...I've seen too many men of all kinds in my life. It's fine to be alone, as long as you have money."
After saying that, she seemed a little angry and pushed Qin Rushuang out: "Okay, okay, Princess, please leave quickly."
She didn't want to say it, so Qin Rushuang left without asking any more questions and left with Xie Xun.
But after walking a certain distance, he ordered Qian Ertong: "Go and find out who he is. He often comes to Rouge Shop to pester Gu Meiren these days. If he is some ignorant prodigal, I will solve this problem for her."
trouble."
Qian Ertong nodded and said, "I understand, Princess."
The weather has turned cold these days, and the sun finally came out today. Qin Rushuang didn't want to take a carriage, so she and Xie Xun walked slowly to the palace.
When I returned to the palace, the old housekeeper was already waiting there.
"Prince? Princess, you are back. Several lieutenants are already waiting in the study."
Xie Xun explained to Qin Rushuang, "I made an appointment with them to discuss things in the afternoon. Are you tired? If so, go and rest first."
Qin Rushuang thought for a moment and said, "Is it about military power?"
Xie Xun nodded, "Yes, if you're not tired, you can come along and come up with ideas."
Qin Rushuang thought about it. Since she chose to advance and retreat together with Xie Xun, she still needed to know how much military power Xie Xun had now.
"Let's go. I haven't seen them for a long time. Let's go and see them together."
