When the housekeeper at the gate saw Qian Ruoyu walking in, he was naturally confused and quickly stopped Qian Ruoyu and warned him.
"You are not allowed to come in! This is Lord Wang's house, and now the plague is rampant. If you come in again, you will be beaten with sticks!"
Golden Lotus on the side said directly.
"Hitting the princess with a stick? I think you are impatient!"
When he suddenly heard that she was the princess, the housekeeper was stunned and couldn't say a word for a while.
After all, at this moment, Qian Ruoyu, who was in beautiful clothes and demeanor, did not look like an ordinary person.
Qian Ruoyu said in an approachable manner.
"Whose mansion do you belong to? Whose mansion does this belong to?"
After hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, the housekeeper hurriedly said.
"It's the residence of Mr. Huangmen Langwang..."
After hearing this, Qian Ruoyu murmured, "Sixth-grade Huang Menlang? Okay, very good!"
Then Qian Ruoyu said as he walked inside.
"Please come out, Mr. Wang. I have something to discuss with Mr. Wang!"
Hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, the housekeeper naturally nodded quickly, and after that, Mr. Wang also hurriedly came to the hall.
Sure enough, after seeing that it was Qian Ruoyu, he immediately bowed his head towards Qian Ruoyu, but he did not kneel down.
After all, Qian Ruoyu is not a king, so there is no need to pay her a big courtesy.
Master Wang also looked puzzled after he arrived. He had no idea why Qian Ruoyu came to this place.
Although it was only the first time he saw Qian Ruoyu, he could tell from Qian Ruoyu's clothes that only those at the princess level could wear them.
Qian Ruoyu said calmly.
"Master Wang, I just came out of the Prime Minister's Palace and happened to pass by your residence. In fact, I have something important to discuss with you. This matter is also an order from my father. I wonder if you are interested in knowing about it, Master Wang?"
It was both the princess and the prime minister, so Lord Wang naturally nodded quickly.
"The official wants to know."
Qian Ruoyu said with a smile after seeing his appearance.
"It's like this. Now the border war epidemic is about to start, and such a plague has happened in the capital. It really makes the people's lives miserable. Both the prince and my father feel that this matter is a top priority!"
"Furthermore, my father has also communicated with His Majesty. This matter has also made Your Majesty very anxious. The top priority is to quickly raise more nutrients. However, the Ministry of Revenue is under great pressure, so there is really no way!"
Listening to what Qian Ruoyu said, Mr. Wang in front of him felt puzzled. He didn't catch any key points of Qian Ruoyu at all, and he had no idea what Qian Ruoyu said. Which sentence was the most important one?
focus.
Then Qian Ruoyu said with a smile.
"So, when I come to you this time, I actually plan to borrow money from you."
As soon as he heard about borrowing money, Mr. Wang's face turned blue with fright. He never thought that he and Faye Wong, who were not related to each other, would come to ask for a loan, and it was obviously under the orders of the emperor and the prince.
Qian Ruoyu said with a calm expression.
"But don't worry, the money you borrowed this time is not in vain. After all, many ministers have fallen ill due to this plague, and His Majesty has also decided to investigate the officials a little more closely."
"These ministers who may have contracted the plague may not be able to go to the morning court again in the future, let alone be able to handle it publicly. As for your majesty's strict investigation of all officials, it is very likely that a large number of ministers will be affected. In this way
If so, maybe some of the seats will be vacant.”
"If you are willing to lend me money, the money actually belongs to His Majesty and the Prince. After borrowing it, you will make an IOU, but after that, you will not suffer or be implicated in some things. This
This is a chance to give you a discount. If you don’t want to, forget it. I’ll make it clear to you.”
Qian Ruoyu's words were very straightforward. As long as you were not a fool, you could basically understand what Qian Ruoyu meant.
There are both threats and demands.
After hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, Mr. Wang naturally started thinking immediately.
This not only means that it is related to his future official position, but also has a great impact on his future.
He thought that if he lent a sum of money, he might not only be able to keep his official position, but also have the opportunity to be promoted. After thinking about it for a while, he said.
"It's...it's not impossible to borrow money, it's not impossible to type notes, it's just...it's just that I'm just a small prostitute, and I don't actually have much money on hand...I just got my monthly salary a few days ago.
, the total amount of money that can be borrowed now is three hundred taels! What do you think?"
After hearing this, Qian Ruoyu laughed directly.
"Master Wang, Master Wang, you are so confused!"
"You have already reached such a critical moment, and you still want to use three hundred taels of silver to make up for it? It seems that it is useless to give you such a critical opportunity. In that case, I will take my leave!"
As Qian Ruoyu's road became smaller, Master Wang, who stood up and saw this scene, quickly tried to find a way to hold Qian Ruoyu, and at the same time said to Qian Ruoyu with some desire.
"This, this, this...the princess, the princess!"
"It's not that I don't want to borrow money. I only have this little money on hand, and I also have a wife, relatives, and maids. I need more than a hundred taels of silver every month. How can I lend you so much money...
…”
Qian Ruoyu said with a smile.
"Master Wang, I don't know if you are really confused or fake. Mrs. Wang has three shops on West Street. Is it possible that she never told you?"
Upon hearing these words, Mr. Wang was stunned.
He never thought that Qian Ruoyu knew so much about it.
But in fact, Qian Ruoyu had already noticed these lists when he opened a drug store, but he just memorized them silently at the time. He didn't expect that they would actually be useful now.
When Mr. Wang heard what Qian Ruoyu said, he was helpless and could only nod.
"Okay... okay, Princess, you are right!"
"Since it is a national crisis, how can we ministers not pay some money... If this is the case, then I will not shirk it. Our palace is willing to lend two thousand taels of silver..."
After hearing these words, Qian Ruoyu nodded with relief, but the amount of two thousand taels of silver really surprised Qian Ruoyu. He never expected that it was such a large amount of silver.
After all, just a Huang Mengmen can actually spend so much money. If it were another minister, wouldn't it be even more?
