Su Mu'er nodded slightly, her eyes lowered, and she pondered for a while before saying:
"Since the procedure is based on dividend receipts, it means that whether the money they invested has a profit or not, or whether they lose everything, it has nothing to do with you. You don't need to pay attention to it at all. There is no need to be afraid of going to the government."
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other in confusion. Some of them couldn't help but ask:
"What did the princess say? No matter what evidence is produced, it is a fact that we handed over the money to the Su Dazhou family. Do you want to default on it?"
"Yes, are you trying to default on your debt?"
Su Muer raised her eyes and glanced at these people, and then said:
"The Su Dazhou family doesn't want to default on the debt. As I said just now, your investment will be paid to you intact with interest. But some of you don't want to wait. In this case, we can only do business on business. Now you
Go to the government office with the dividend receipt in your hand and ask Mr. Fu Yin, what will the county government say if you lost all the money you invested in preparing for dividends due to an accident?"
Seeing her resolute attitude, some people in the crowd began to murmur,
"What does she mean by this? How about we go to the government office and ask?"
"It's better not to go. If the government really decides that the money is counted as our investment, and we have to bear the same responsibility as Su Dazhou if we lose it, then where can we go to get the money?"
"That's right, at least the princess is standing here to vouch for it. If we go to the Yamen and the princess angrily ignores our matter, wouldn't it be more of a loss than a gain?"
"..."
Listening to these people talking, Su Muer's eyes showed a trace of helplessness. People are people after all. They like to be one-sided and swarm, so as long as someone puts forward a suggestion, someone will follow it.
At this time, someone in the crowd shouted:
"Since the princess is willing to make the decision for the Su Dazhou family, then I will wait. I believe in the princess."
"Yes, I also believe in the princess. I will go home and wait."
"I also believe in the princess..."
"..."
More and more people followed suit, and those who started to make trouble at first closed their mouths, lowered their heads and remained silent.
Seeing this scene, Su Muer glanced at everyone and said again:
"Although Su Dazhou's family has suffered this disaster, the Su family will not collapse. When Dazhou asked you to invest, it was not to make money from you, nor to defraud you of your money, but to let you make money together. Such an accident occurs
He doesn't want to either.
So I hope you will understand him. After all, he is a down-to-earth person who wants to do things. He has never said that he will not pay back your money. It is a bit unhuman for you to be so aggressive all the time. I hope you wait until Dazhou in the future.
On the day when he gets better, he will ask you to come back when you come to get money, otherwise, don't come to your door easily to ask for debts.
We are all living in the same village. What you do is very disappointing. If he becomes rich in the future, do you think he will still care about you?"
After hearing this, the crowd fell into silence, and everyone pondered without speaking.
At this time, Su Dazhou came back with a pheasant on his shoulders. He had long heard what Su Mu'er said to these people here. He was very grateful to her. He didn't dare to see these villagers before. He always felt that
He had no face to see them, so after what she said, he went straight to the crowd. Juanzi happily took the pheasant he had brought back.
He glanced at everyone, then bowed and saluted, stood up straight, and said slowly:
"The princess is right. As long as you believe in me, Su Dazhou, sooner or later I will turn around, and sooner or later I will return everyone's money. Please believe me and don't come to my house to make trouble again. All the valuable things in my house will be given to you."
After taking it away, there is still a father with a broken leg and a pair of children who are learning to talk. Even if you come to make trouble every day, you will come back empty-handed. Instead of doing this, it is better to believe that I will pay you back your money sooner or later."
Most people knew what he said, and naturally everyone understood it, but when someone came to ask for debts, everyone followed him. Those who didn't come secretly paid back the money for fear that one day Dazhou would lose money.
People in the village are generally like this, they like to be coaxed when doing things, but now that no one is talking anymore, everyone has become quiet.
Seeing that no one was speaking, Juanzi shouted directly to everyone:
"Everyone, go back. The princess has already acted as a guarantor for us. What else do you have to worry about? Besides, our Dazhou is not a dull person. He will find a way to make money and will pay you back. Don't worry.
Bar."
After hearing this, the villagers murmured a few words again, and then dispersed one after another.
Seeing all these people walking away, Da Zhou turned to look at Su Mu'er, and suddenly fell to his knees. Seeing this, Su Mu'er hurriedly stepped forward to help her.
"Brother Dazhou, what are you doing?"
Dazhou pursed his lips and kept sighing,
"I, Su Dazhou, am ashamed of you. I don't dare to see you. You gave me the management of Nuo Da's chicken farm. Not only did I not make any money, but I lost everything. I am guilty. Please punish me, Princess."
Su Muer hurriedly greeted Dazhou:
"Get up quickly and go into the house to answer your question. What do you look like at the gate? If others look at you, you will inevitably have another round of gossip."
Dazhou nodded in understanding. He stood up holding on to the door frame and stretched out his hand to indicate,
"Please come to the princess's room."
Juanzi raised the pheasant in her hand and grinned happily, "The princess is here today, and Dazhou's good luck has also come with her. She actually caught a pheasant. Princess, let's have dinner here, I will stew the chicken."
Su Mu'er originally wanted to refuse, but seeing her sincere smile, she couldn't bear to refuse her. Instead, she nodded with a smile, turned to Liu Ye and said:
"You should also go home and have a look. We will come back after dinner."
"But... the prince will be anxious if he can't find the princess."
"Don't worry, I've made an arrangement with Butler Ding. You can just go back and advise your mother not to make trouble with these people in the village."
Liu Ye kept nodding as if she had received a message, "Don't worry, Princess, I will definitely ask my mother to bring back the Dazhou family's pot, and I won't let her mess around anymore."
"Go ahead, we'll be on our way before dawn tonight."
Liu Ye hurriedly bowed and saluted, and just when he was about to turn around and leave, Su Muer called out again:
"etc……"
Liu Ye looked back at her in surprise. She was worried that the princess had gone back on her word, "Is there anything else, princess?"
"Give your mother a piece of the meat we brought."
"princess……"
Liu Ye's face was filled with disbelief. The princess was actually thinking about her mother?
"Go ahead. As my daughter, there is no reason to go back empty-handed."
Liu Ye nodded gratefully to the princess, turned and left.
Su Muer followed Dazhou to the main hall of his house and said that this was the main hall, but there were only two complete chairs.
Dazhou scratched his head in embarrassment,
"The house is a bit shabby, Princess, don't make me laugh."
"It's okay, let's sit down and talk."
Dazhou sat down opposite her, holding the corners of his clothes with both hands, looking very nervous.
"Brother Dazhou, what are your plans?"
"Princess, please don't call me like that. From now on, just call me Dazhou. I can't bear the word "Brother"."
Seeing Dazhou's honest and honest look, Su Muer nodded and said with a smile:
"Okay, then we'll call it Dazhou from now on. What are your plans in the future? You can't keep making a living by going up to the mountains to collect firewood and hunt, right?"
When this issue was mentioned, Dazhou sighed helplessly,
"Oh, it's really shameful to say this. Chopping wood and hunting are just temporary livelihoods. It's hard for my whole family to fill their stomachs just by chopping wood. But now that I'm a rich man, I can't even make a living if I want to.
With the money, I don’t know what I can do.”
Having said this, he raised his hand and beat himself twice on the head with some annoyance.
"This is also my fault. If I could separate the sick chickens in time as you told me before, maybe I could control it when the chicken plague first appeared, and there wouldn't be so many problems. It's because I was overconfident and thought these chickens were very dangerous.
Being so strong, in the end, not a single chicken was left, ugh.”
Mentioning this, Dazhou sighed with some self-blame, and Su Muer hurriedly tried to dissuade her.
"This matter is not something you can control. Even if I am here, I can't control the chicken plague, so don't blame yourself too much. It's useless to blame yourself now. It's better to think about how to live a good life in the future."
Dazhou still sighed heavily, "I don't know, I have nothing but a handful of energy, and I don't know how to make money."
"If you can't think of a better way to make money, I've thought of one for you. I wonder if you are willing."
Hearing this, Dazhou hurriedly raised his head, looked at Su Muer with longing eyes, and nodded directly,
"As long as I listen to what the princess says, I can do whatever she wants me to do. As long as I can turn over, pay off all my debts, and have money to cure my father's leg disease, then I, Su Dazhou, will be worthy."
Be human for once."
Seeing that he had such determination, Su Muer nodded solemnly,
"I have an idea. Your village relies on mountains, so you can rely on the mountains to make a living. Although you can make some money cutting firewood, the profit is too low. You can call on the villagers to go to the mountains to collect herbs, and then you collect them. I will meet you tomorrow.
After the prince's wedding, I plan to open a pharmacy in the city. Then all the medicines you collect will be sent to my pharmacy. I will definitely give you a compromise price so that you can make a profit, and the people will naturally be happy.
.”
Su Dazhou didn't quite understand what she said and looked at her with surprised eyes.
"This mountain is so poor, where can we get the medicinal materials?"
Su Muer squinted her eyes and smiled, "That's because you didn't look carefully. I have been to the mountains near your village. There are many herbs on the mountains, and they are rich in variety. The work of collecting herbs can be said to be cost-effective.
If you don't have the capital, you can first borrow money from the people. If you really can't owe it, I will lend you some money and deduct it from your medicinal materials."
Dazhou suddenly grinned. He scratched the back of his head and asked again doubtfully:
"Then I don't know these medicinal materials. What should I do if I'm cheated?"
Seeing his honest look, Su Muer smiled helplessly,
"I probably won't be free tomorrow. You can go to the palace to find me the day after tomorrow. I will take you to the medicine shop in the city to find some commonly used medicinal materials. Then you can go to the mountains to look for the medicinal materials according to their appearance. If you don't know them, it doesn't mean they don't exist.
You need to study more. Although this job won't make a lot of money, it will be enough for your family to have enough food and clothing. When your business grows in the future, you won't have to worry about not being able to make up for these people's money."
After hearing what she said, Su Dazhou felt as excited as if he had been pumped with blood. He rubbed his hands and murmured, "If that's really great, that's really great. I've always dreamed of finding some way to make money, Princess."
You are truly a great benefactor to our family."
"Don't say that. I am also responsible for your family becoming what it is now. Besides, I also plan to open a pharmacy. You are responsible for collecting the medicines, and then selling them to me in the pharmacy, and I will sell them to people who need them. This way
Come, we can all make money."
Su Dazhou's smiling face suddenly became clouded. He looked at her sadly and said quietly:
"You will be the official princess after tomorrow. Will the Seventh Prince ask you to do business? Since ancient times, women have not been allowed to appear in public. I'm afraid..."
Su Muer smiled and waved her hand. She understood Ye Shihan's temperament and he would not stop her from doing what she wanted to do.
"Don't worry, the prince will support me. He doesn't want me to stay in the palace all day, otherwise I will get sick."
Dazhou still scratched his head in confusion, "But I heard that the emperor issued an imperial edict that you are not only a princess, but also the general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. This is a special title from the emperor. Are you here to do business?"
Mentioning the title of the Imperial General, Su Muer smiled helplessly,
"You don't have to worry about this, I will take care of it myself."
In fact, she knew that this title was just the emperor's praise for her. She neither knew how to control troops nor how to organize formations. If she was asked to be the imperial general, she would not be qualified. However, Bai Chen and Doudou were given to her.
No matter, this was very useful to her. When Ye Shihan dared to bully her, she ordered her two generals to deal with him.
Thinking of this, she pursed her lips and smiled to herself. When Dazhou saw this, he also smiled.
At this time, Juanzi wiped her hands with her apron and said:
"Dazhou, please quickly invite the princess to come out for dinner, and then you can help dad out. Today we will sit at the same table to eat."
It turned out that since Su Hongshan injured his leg, he had never gone to the table to eat. In addition, there was no delicious food at home, just porridge and vegetable soup, so he had been eating at random in his house.
Today is a special day. There are not only pheasants, but also fish and white rice brought by the princess, so it is rare for the family to sit at this table that has not been used for a long time.
The two children looked at the meat on the table and were already salivating with greed. Just as the little boy was about to reach out to pick up the meat, Juanzi slapped him directly.
"Wait, the adults haven't moved their chopsticks yet, what do you do first?"
The little boy was beaten so much that he retracted his hand, but his eyes were still fixed on the plate of fresh pork on the table.
Su Muer directly picked up a piece of chopsticks and put it in his bowl. She looked at him tenderly and said softly:
"Eat, there are no outsiders, eat slowly, there will be more if you want to eat later."
"real?"
Xiao Nizi looked at her with some disbelief, "Will we still have it if we want to eat it in the future? Will the princess still bring it to us?"
Su Muer shook her head directly, "Of course not, your father will make money to buy you meat from now on, as long as you are obedient."
"That's natural. My brother and I have been obedient. Can we eat now?"
"That's it."
After saying this, Su Muer took another piece of meat and put it in the bowl in front of Su Hongshan.
"Uncle Hongshan, let's eat."
Su Hongshan was obviously a little excited. He picked up the chopsticks in front of him with trembling hands and wanted to pick up the piece of meat, but his hands were shaking for a while and he failed to pick up the piece of meat.
Seeing this, Juanzi hurriedly smiled and said:
"Dad, are you a little excited after not eating meat for a long time? Don't worry, take your time. If you eat two less pieces today, you may not be able to bear the cold stomach. When our family's life gets better in the future, this meat tube will be enough.
.”
"How can our family's life improve?"
Su Hongshan didn't believe it. With his livelihood of cutting firewood in Dazhou, it was up to God to have a meal of meat. Even if he could rarely catch a pheasant, he couldn't bear to eat it. He also wanted to go to the city to exchange some money for some rice.
Woolen cloth.
Dazhou grinned directly and said:
"Dad, isn't the princess here? She gave our family a good idea to make money. Just wait and live a good life. If there is a chance, I will cure your leg disease."
Hearing this, Su Muer lowered her eyebrows and glanced at his legs, then said:
"After my wedding tomorrow, I will find a doctor to look at Uncle Hongshan's leg. If it can be cured, I must do it as soon as possible without delay."
Juanzi pursed her lips in embarrassment and said:
"But we don't have money now. It will cost a lot of money to hire a doctor, and we also have to buy medicine. Otherwise, we would have treated dad long ago."
Speaking of this, Juanzi and Dazhou's faces dropped at the same time. They seemed to feel that they were sorry for Su Hongshan.
Su Hongshan was busy waving his hands,
"What are you talking about? Our family's life has become like this. How can we still have the money to treat my broken leg? Besides, I am a dying person. What's the use of treating this leg? I know the princess is well-intentioned.
, but if I don’t get cured, that’s how I will be, and if I live one more day, it will be one more day.”
When he said this, Dazhou and Juanzi both lowered their heads sadly. Although the princess was good to their family, they had no reason to take advantage of the princess.
At this table, only Dani and Xiaozi were enjoying their meal, while the rest were a little melancholy and had their own thoughts.
Seeing this, Su Muer comforted her again:
"Uncle Hongshan must have been suffering from leg disease for two years. We don't know yet whether it can be cured. How about we let Uncle Hongshan go to the palace to stay for a few days, and I asked Ye Shihan to go to the palace to find an imperial doctor to take a look.
If it can be cured well, you can use the medicinal materials you collected to treat it. As for the consultation fee, the imperial doctor will not charge it for Ye Shihan's sake."
This was all she could think of. She didn't want to directly say that she could give Uncle Hongshan money to treat his leg, otherwise Uncle Hongshan would definitely not agree. She also didn't want to give the Dazhou family a feeling of charity, so she thought of it.
