After reading it, Princess Changle couldn't laugh or cry, and didn't know what to say to her father.
His Majesty Li Er said faintly: "Beauty, you have also seen that your husband is really a lion this time. Even if your father wants to spend so much money, he will need at least six years of treasury income."
!”
"It's not that I can't bear to use it to build the railway. It's just that if something happens to Datang in the past six years and a lot of money is needed, my father's treasury is empty. Do you think it will be so embarrassing then?
?”
"Dad, I think this money should be spent wisely..."
…
His Majesty Li Er spoke with sincerity and sincerity, looking like a wise king who cares about the country and the people rather than himself.
However, no matter how nice what His Majesty Li Er said, Princess Changle could only express her helplessness this time.
As the mistress of the Su family compound, she is very familiar with Su Chen's family accounts.
Su Chen really didn't lie this time, and he doesn't have much money anymore...
The current Su Family Courtyard, to a certain extent, not only has no money, but also has many areas where money needs to be spent to fill gaps.
I'm afraid that Su Chen may not have much spare money in the next two or three years, so he came up with His Majesty Li Er's idea...
"So, Li Zhi, this time you must help Dad ask Su Chen to see if he has any other ways to make money."
After saying that, His Majesty Li Er's throat was so dry that he was almost on fire. He had to drink several large sips of tea before he could breathe again.
well……
Seeing His Majesty Li Er's appearance, Princess Changle felt inexplicably sad.
Dad, it’s not that my daughter doesn’t want to help, but now even the landlord’s family doesn’t have enough food left...
"Beauty?"
Seeing that Princess Changle didn't respond for a long time, His Majesty Li Er's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that his caring little cotton-padded jacket is completely gone?
Princess Changle used to turn her elbows outward when she was not married, but now she is married to Su Chen...
His Majesty Li Er did not dare to think any further. He felt that it was really too difficult for him.
Princess Changle did not dare to look directly into His Majesty Li Er's eyes and whispered: "Dad, this time, Brother Su Chen may really not be able to get any money..."
Hearing this, His Majesty Li Er was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Li Zhi, I have seen Su Chen's family background. It is not an exaggeration to say that Su Chen is as rich as anyone in the country. How can he say that he has no money?"
"Dad, my daughter did not lie to you. Most of Su Chen's brother's money has been invested in research and development and manufacturing of new items. The remaining money is only enough for our daily expenses."
"It's okay, as long as you can ask Su Chen to think of some ways for Dad to make money, like the one he did before."
His Majesty Li Er smiled slightly.
"Besides, doesn't he still have the gold mines in Japan, the horse farms in Jiannan Road, and the blacksmith shops? The combined annual income from these is no less than the national treasury. Is it possible that Su Chen doesn't even have this money?
arranged?"
His Majesty Li Er continued.
It was obvious that His Majesty Li Er was fully prepared this time and was not planning to let Su Chen go, so he would have to pay less.
However, what His Majesty Li Er didn't know was that he really got it right this time.
Su Chen has indeed clearly arranged his income for the next few years, and there is not much left...
Looking at His Majesty Li Er who looked sure to win, Princess Changle hesitated again and again, but still did not explain the situation to him. She was afraid that her father would not be able to accept the cruelty of reality...
"Dad, my daughter doesn't know much about these things, so why not wait until brother Su Chen comes back and ask him."
Princess Changle said softly.
His Majesty Li Er seemed to have guessed that Princess Changle would say this, and did not feel any surprise. He said: "It's okay. It's not too late to talk about this later. Now you can accompany Sizi to Haizhou. You will also go out.
Take some time to relax.”
As soon as His Majesty Li Er finished speaking, little Sizi took Princess Changle's hand and said coquettishly: "Sister, just go with Sizi. I miss Brother Su Chen so much!"
Looking at Xiao Sizi's big watery eyes, Princess Changle couldn't think of a single thought of rejection and said, "Well, sister will go with you."
"Okay! Sister is the best!"
Xiao Sizi cheered.
"Um."
Seeing this, His Majesty Li Er stroked his beard and smiled lightly.
Finally, he convinced his two daughters to go find Su Chen.
In this way, the chance of success is much higher.
As soon as the two sisters, Princess Changle, appear, Su Chen will inevitably become soft-hearted, and then he asks Cheng Qian to ask for a solution, and he will definitely be able to find out something.
Afterwards, His Majesty Li Er casually told Princess Changle something and asked the two sisters to go find Queen Changsun.
As soon as the two precious girls left, His Majesty Li Er immediately called Li Chengqian.
"Chengqian, do you remember all these things that dad told you?"
"Remember...remember..."
After receiving the initiation from His Majesty Li Er, Li Chengqian felt a little confused.
He basically didn't remember much of what His Majesty Li Er said. He only remembered that his main mission this time was to go to the north to find Su Chen...
An hour later, Li Chengqian drowsily got into the carriage with his two sisters and set off in the direction of Haizhou.
…
Haizhou, Haicheng.
Less than a day after Li Chengqian and his party set out, Su Chen had already arrived at their destination.
"Lin Xing, the governor of Haizhou, has met Lord Protector!"
At the gate of Haicheng City, the governor of Haizhou had been waiting for a long time and brought officials from one state to greet Su Chen.
But except for him, the other officials only dared to salute Su Chen and did not dare to talk to him.
"What is the current locust plague situation in Haizhou?"
"Reporting to Lord Protector, the locust plague in Haizhou has been controlled at present. Everything will be handled according to your instructions. The corpses of the locusts have also been burned with fire!"
"How is the livelihood of the people? Are some people starving to death?"
"Reporting to the Lord Protector, no one in Haizhou will go hungry!"
After briefly asking about the situation in Haizhou, Su Chenji never had much communication with the governor.
Lin Xing is a somewhat shrewd middle-aged man, with some thoughts flashing through his eyes from time to time. He is obviously a clever master.
In front of Su Chen, the Haizhou governor tried his best to express himself. He also answered Su Chen's questions fluently, and he was obviously prepared.
"Well, you have done quite well. When you go back, you will be rewarded according to your merits, and the rewards and punishments will be clear."
After a simple conversation, Su Chen also had a preliminary understanding of Lin Xing.
Although he is not very likable in appearance, he still does a good job in handling things and is very tactful.
Seeing Hu Guogong affirming himself, Lin Xing was overjoyed and winked at the deputy who had been following him.
