On the other side, Fuling went out to deliver congratulatory gifts. On the other side, Hongling came in and said, "Prince Concubine, the Crown Prince wants you to go to the study."
Why do you want her to go to the study?
Su Tang put down the tea cup in his hand, got up and went to the study.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw a new face in the study. The man was about thirty-five or sixty years old. He saw Su Tang and asked Su Tang to greet him.
Su Tang didn't know who he was, so he just nodded. When he looked at Xie Boting, he found a small box on the desk.
Su Tang said, "Did your husband come to see me?"
Xie Boting clapped his hand on the box and said, "Jinshangxiang has been open for some time. This is Jinshangxiang's account book, specially sent to you for your reference."
Xie Boting knew that Su Tang didn't like taking care of accounts and would never give it to others to take care of. However, Jin Shangxiang was different. Su Tang paid special attention to the location of Su Tang's shop until the day it opened.
Su Tang heard that it was Jin Shangxiang's account book, and she couldn't wait to open the box to see how much money Jin Shangxiang had earned these days. After all, she would have to spend a lot of money every year in the future, and she could no longer treat her as before.
I don’t care about making money anymore.
There were six account books in the box. Su Tang took them out and asked the man, "Do you know how much money Jin Shangxiang has earned these days?"
The man replied, "I earned a total of sixty-nine thousand, five hundred and forty taels."
Su Tang is quite satisfied with this number.
Xie Boting sat there, his mouth twitching as he listened. He also had seven or eight shops under his name, some of which were left to him by his wife, and some were birthday gifts given to him by the prince. However, the best profit-making shop was only eight thousand taels a year.
Here, his wife earns money on a monthly basis, and the salary is at least 10,000 taels.
Xie Boting was not too surprised by Su Tang's ability to earn money. What surprised him was the poverty of Su Tang's brother Su Ji.
Su Tang found Xie Boting staring at her. She thought there was something dirty on her face, so she touched it and said, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Xie Boting said, "Does your brother know that you are so good at making money?"
Su Tang was embarrassed, "You can tell my elder brother to try it, he won't believe it."
Xie Boting, "..."
Xie Boting had nothing to say.
Su Tang flipped through a few pages of the account book. Although she was very interested in Jin Shangxiang, she was not prepared to read the account book. She placed it in front of Xie Boting and said, "Read it for me."
Xie Boting said, "How can I have time? The emperor wants you to open a wine shop. I'm busy with this."
Su Tang said, "As for the time, just squeeze it in and go to bed later at night."
After saying that, Su Tang left. Before leaving, she said to the man, "Thank you for your hard work."
The corner of Xie Boting's mouth twitched. He didn't know how Su Tang could confidently ask him to squeeze in his time. This is her shop, okay?
Su Tang came out of the study just as Poria came back. Su Tang said, "Why are you back so soon?"
Fuling smiled and said, "It's a coincidence that I went there. I happened to meet the fourth master and his wife in the garden going to Tianxiang Courtyard to thank the prince and the princess. I sent the congratulatory gifts to them in the garden and then came back."
After saying that, Fuling came forward and whispered, "When I came back, I met the second wife, and her face was very ugly." This chapter has been completed!
