In the study, Su Tang sat on Xie Boting's chair, dipped his pen in ink and scribbled on the paper, while Poria was grinding the ink aside.
Su Tang wrote very quickly, writing more than a dozen pieces of paper in one go. His wrist was sore, so he put down the Langhao pen in his hand. Su Tang turned his wrist, and Fuling saw it and said, "Prince Princess, please take a break and then write again."
Su Tang shook his head, picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and continued writing.
Although she only gave Master Lu a deposit of 100,000 taels, she had spent almost all the money in her hand. Raising a 6,000-strong iron cavalry was more expensive than ordinary people could imagine. The Xiangyin Iron Cavalry cost a little more than ordinary soldiers.
, she will definitely have to pay for the higher part, as well as the food and grass for the six thousand horses and the annual loss of the six thousand horses...
These are all money.
Spending hundreds of thousands taels all at once, and spending at least 100,000 taels every year in the future, it is impossible to be stress-free.
However, since Su Tang dared to talk to the emperor, she was naturally confident. Unfortunately, she had never thought of building an iron cavalry before, and her attitude of being completely indifferent to making money was really thanks to the foodies of Prince Xin'an, who helped
Then he opened a roast duck, hot pot and barbecue shop. When these shops opened all over Ning Dynasty, the annual profit would be enough to support 6,000 iron cavalry and even establish a huge news network.
Su Tang gathered his thoughts and continued writing prescriptions.
After writing a prescription and drying the ink, I heard the door creak open and Xie Boting walked in.
Su Tang saw at a glance that Xie Boting's brocade robe was torn on his chest. She was startled and said, "Why is the brocade robe torn?"
Xie Boting lowered his head and said, "I got a whip from my father."
Su Tang blurted out, "Why did my father hit you again?"
After saying that, Su Tang came to his senses, "Pretend I didn't ask anything."
She stood up and said, "Father, have you agreed?"
Xie Boting laughed, "The emperor has agreed to something, but you are still afraid that your father will not agree?"
Xie Boting went to the prince to select 6,000 elite men from the prince's command to form the iron cavalry. If it were someone else, the prince would definitely not agree. But Xie Boting is his son, and the wealth has not gone to outsiders. How can the prince agree?
If the prince refused to agree, Xie Baiting went to the palace to find the emperor. The emperor put pressure on the prince, but the prince still had to agree.
Xie Boting took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and handed them to Su Tang. Su Tang blinked, "Is this...?"
Xie Boting said, "My father said that although you are a daughter, your mind and vision are far beyond those of ordinary people, which makes him feel ashamed. Since it is for the good of the imperial court and our Jingnan Palace, you cannot pay all of this money."
Su Tang accepted the pile of banknotes. Although there were only ten banknotes, there were a total of two hundred thousand taels.
Suddenly there was no sense of urgency to make money.
Originally, one hundred thousand taels of her money belonged to Xie Boting, plus the two hundred thousand taels given by the prince, did she still raise this iron cavalry?
Su Tang handed the banknote to Xie Boting, and Xie Boting said, "This is for you."
Su Tang said, "You should return it to my father. I just took a blood test and want to work hard to make money. With these two hundred thousand taels, I will definitely slack off."
"I will raise the six thousand iron cavalry first. When I can no longer support them, it will not be too late for my father to take over."
Xie Boting looked at Su Tang, "You really don't want it? My father is not short of money."
It is not difficult to build a 6,000-strong cavalry force with the property of the Prince of Jingnan, but it is difficult to provide for it every year in the future. In fact, not only the Prince of Jingnan, but also the Duke of Song and Prince Ning can build a cavalry, but no one will do it for the sake of money.
, the Mingdehou Mansion even embezzled money from the imperial court for disaster relief, so Su Tanghui made such an announcement to the emperor, and the emperor actually agreed.
