You might as well suspect me of being a thief, so Han Du twitched the corner of his mouth and cursed.
Lao Zhu didn't doubt that Han Du had anything to do with these singers. He just found it tasteful.
Four hundred and ninety thousand guan. How much does the Jiaofangsi give the palace every year? One million guan.
On average, it's less than 100,000 yuan per month.
Later, Lao Zhu wanted to increase the income that Jiaofangsi sent to the palace every year, but Han Du came up with a lot of excuses. This is the hard-earned money of the girls, and Jiaofangsi is just taking advantage of it now.
, the income will inevitably decrease over time. Anyway, Han Du's words mean the same thing. Since the emperor Jinkou said one million guan a year at the beginning, it cannot be changed.
In the end, it was because of Lao Zhu's shamelessness and after he promised that he would never increase the annual income of Jiaofangsi again, Han Du agreed to increase it to 100,000 yuan per month.
In this way, it is equivalent to the Jiaofang Si providing 1.2 million guan of wealth to the palace every year, which is 200,000 guan more than before.
Just for these 200,000 yuan, Lao Zhu pestered Han Du for a long time before letting Han Du let go.
But now Han Du easily distributed millions of dollars to the women of Jiaofangsi, which naturally made Lao Zhu dissatisfied.
"Your Majesty Mingjian, these are the shipowner's money and have nothing to do with me." Han Du quickly cleared up the relationship with a smile. If Lao Zhu misunderstood, it would not be good for anyone. ??
And this money was indeed taken out by the shipowners. They originally provided money for the shipowners to buy goods for overseas business. Now that they have made money, they should get a share.
You didn’t contribute any money in the first place, so what’s the use of being jealous now?
Lao Zhu, however, seemed to have the ability to read minds. He glared at Han Du and said angrily, "If you had been more sensible and asked me to buy some securities, wouldn't there be dividends now?"
I am not a prophet, and I told you to buy securities in advance.
Han Du felt that there was no way to continue talking today, so he shut his mouth and stood aside, deliberately not looking at Lao Zhu.
Fortunately, Empress Ma smiled softly and helped Han Du out of trouble. "The emperor is rich in the world, why should he compete with these people for profit? Besides, it is not easy for the emperor to get a share of the huge profits from sea trade? I will turn back.
I will ask someone to prepare it. We have a ship and people. It makes no sense that I cannot do business that others can do."
Is this okay? Lao Zhu raised his head and looked at Han Du. He remembered that Han Du strongly disapproved of the court's profit through paying tribute, thinking that the court only needed to sit back and collect money, and trade matters could be left to merchants.
Han Du smiled and nodded, "It's absolutely possible. There is a huge demand for Ming Dynasty goods overseas. The goods shipped by current merchants cannot satisfy the huge demand overseas. If the palace can organize fleets to go out for sea trade, no matter whether it is for
The people are still good for the palace."
"This matter needs long-term consideration." To Han Du's surprise, Lao Zhu, who was jealous of others getting rich just now, unexpectedly did not want to talk about this issue at this time.
Although Han Du had doubts, he couldn't continue the issue at this time, so he had to follow Lao Zhu and look at the dividend meeting below.
The dividend distribution meeting was still going on, and Yao Yue walked towards her carriage with the maid and the clerk carrying the box.
That's right, the wealth of 490,000 guan, even in treasure money, was packed in three large boxes, and it took two men to lift one box.
When Yao Yue walked halfway, she turned back towards
She took a look at the second floor of Shibosi. Seeing Han Du's surprised look towards her, a happy smile suddenly appeared on Yao Yue's cold face.
Just such a smile made those around her hold their breath as if they were seeing flowers blooming in spring.
"What are you looking at, young lady?" The maid next to her asked vaguely, wondering why Yao Yue stopped and tilted her head.
Just when the maid wanted to follow Yao Yue's gaze and look back, Yao Yue suddenly withdrew her gaze, as if it was just a casual glance.
"It's nothing, let's go back."
"Okay." When it comes to going back, the maid is the happiest. After all, there is so much money, and the wealth should not be revealed, so of course she has to take it back quickly and hide it.
The two of them hadn't taken two steps when someone suddenly rushed out and stopped in front of Yao Yue.
Seeing this, the maid quickly opened her arms to protect Yaoyue behind her like an old hen protecting its chicks.
"What do you want to do in broad daylight?"
The person who came here was young, wearing a blue gown, and looked like a scholar. Although this person had taken good care of himself, but from his sallow and thin figure and the fact that his gown had been washed white, we knew that his family background must not be very good.
, maybe still very poor.
Seeing that the maid was guarding him as if she were a lewd thief, the scholar looked embarrassed and bowed slowly, "Young man, this is so polite. Miss Yaoyue is famous, and I have admired him for a long time."
While the scholar was talking, he bent down and bowed down. But when he raised his head, he found that Yao Yue had passed him and walked to the back.
Seeing that he was ignored by a brothel woman, a trace of anger flashed across the scholar's face. But for his purpose, he endured it in an instant.
Putting on a smiling face, she ran to Yao Yue again and was about to speak.
"Get out!" Yao Yue opened her teeth slightly and spat out one word in disgust.
The scholar seemed not to have expected such a result, and was stunned on the spot.
Yao Yue also took advantage of his daze to quickly get into the carriage and close the door.
When the scholar came back to his senses, he suddenly became angry and started to curse.
However, Xiangxue, who was approached by Pingping Tingting, covered her little cherry mouth with her hands and taunted her, "Oh, that's hilarious. A toad wants to eat swan meat, so he doesn't even urinate and look at himself. You're such a thing, I can't stand it."
You don’t like me, do you think our innocent sister Yaoyue can like you?”
"Hahaha"
Xiangxue's words caused the people around to burst into loud laughter at the scholar.
Everyone saw the scene just now. The scholar just saw that Yao Yue was rich and wanted to take advantage. But who could have imagined that Miss Yao Yue didn't like him at all.
Girl Yaoyue was originally beautiful and fragrant, and her admirers were like crucian carp crossing the river. Now that she has suddenly become rich, naturally many people are attracted by her.
But they were not as shameless as this poor scholar, who dared to rush forward and stop Yao Yue in public.
Yao Yue's disregard for this poor scholar made everyone feel happy, feeling that this was Yao Yue's true temperament.
Xiangxue's words of ridicule to the scholar made them feel even more happy.
Faced with the ridicule of the crowd, the scholar not only did not hide his face and walked away, but instead said to Xiangxue in a broken voice: "She is just a brothel bitch. I am innocent. If I want to marry her, I only admire her and do not know what is good or bad."
"You might as well suspect that I'm cheating on you, so forget it," Han Du said with a twitch in his mouth and stomach.
Lao Zhu didn't doubt that Han Du had anything to do with these singers. He just found it tasteful.
Four hundred and ninety thousand guan. How much does the Jiaofangsi give the palace every year? One million guan.
On average, it's less than 100,000 yuan per month.
