Chapter 164 If you don’t take action, I will take action first
The Ninth Prince beside Qin Bei frowned and looked at the things on the field.
If others are unclear, how can he still be unclear?
Even without the guarantee from the auction house, he knew that these things were indeed the items from Emperor Xia's Residence Palace.
"What is going on? Is the emperor planning to make another big move?"
The Ninth Prince frowned and muttered.
Then he looked at Qin Bei aside.
"Have you heard about any new policies announced by His Majesty recently? For example, the royal family's expenses must be earned by the royal family themselves? The national treasury will no longer be allocated?"
The Ninth Prince felt that Qin Bei should know more about money than he did.
"Uncle Emperor, what does this mean? Why can't I understand it?"
Qin Bei said he didn't understand anything.
"Don't you understand this yet? Look at how many of the things in the auction house today belong to the royal family? Now even the emperor's own things are being put up for auction. What does that mean?"
The Ninth Prince asked.
Qin Bei replied tentatively: "Does it mean my father is short of money?"
The Ninth Prince looked at Qin Bei and rolled his eyes.
"Although the emperor's private treasury and the national treasury are separate, the wealth that the emperor possesses is unimaginable to outsiders. Do you think he can live without these three melons and two dates?"
The Ninth Prince felt that Qin Bei looked down upon His Majesty.
Tens of millions of spiritual stones are not enough to make Emperor Xia act like this.
"Then what are you doing? Making some pocket money?"
Although Qin Bei knew what was going on, he had to act stupid at times like this.
You can't just say that I, Qin Bei, stole all these things! Is it because I, Qin Bei, am short of money?
"Tsk~ Don't you understand this? In my opinion, it must be because some members of the royal family felt the benefits of taking away the distribution last time. Now they want to take back the distribution of all members of the royal family. Now they will lead by example.
To make money with your own things, tell the members of the royal family that as an emperor, he has to make his own money to support the palace, then who among the other members will dare to have any objections?"
The more the Ninth Prince spoke, the more convinced he became of this concept.
At the same time, the expression on his face became increasingly ugly.
Qin Bei looked at the Ninth Prince and wanted to remind the latter that you think too much. Although my father is stingy, he is not so stingy.
"That's too much! If a member of the royal family doesn't have a royal allocation, are they still a member of the royal family? Our Daxia royal family has gone through so many generations of hard work to get to this point, where we can enjoy it as we please, and now he actually wants to take it all away!
Do you still take the royal bloodline seriously?!"
"I always think about letting the royal family members work hard on their own, so why are our ancestors working so hard? Isn't it just to make life better for us, the younger generations?"
"Those who should work hard know how to work hard, and those who don't want to work hard are waiting to die by relying on the royal family. What's wrong with being carefree and happy? Isn't it good to be a leisurely noble?"
The Ninth Prince had already thought of the big quarrel between him and Emperor Xia not long after.
"Nephew, don't you think so? If we don't want to practice hard, then we can just enjoy it! Your father's idea this time is indeed too much!"
Qin Bei looked at the impassioned Ninth Prince, who confidently said that he would live happily until death, and smiled bitterly in his heart.
Hasn't his reputation always been that of a young hero and a rising genius?
Since when did it get involved with being free and happy by just eating and waiting to die?
But thinking about it, it seems that this is also the case, because I really have never practiced as hard as Qin Chen.
...
But at this time, Qin Bei finally understood why the Ninth Prince could become the controller of the clan.
This kind of thinking is not suitable for anything else, but it is the most suitable for controlling the clan.
Because the clan itself is only responsible for the royal members, one is to supervise, and the other is to safeguard the interests of the royal members.
The principle of the clan is that if outsiders lose 10 million, and the royal family can make 1 million, then this thing can be done.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that he is extremely selfish.
"Uncle Huang is so right, I support you!"
Qin Bei waved his fist to express encouragement.
Since Emperor Xia has already taken the blame, you should let Emperor Xia bear the blame to the end.
"But it's true, my father, when he sells things, he doesn't take anything valuable, but just sells these useless things. Everyone is not a fool. Who will pay for him?"
Qin Bei complained.
But inside I was blaming myself.
If I had known this, I would have spent more time in the Imperial Garden and gotten more natural materials and treasures to sell.
It's better than these personal items that can't be sold at any price.
"Tch! How else can we say he is stingy? If he sells things that are valuable in themselves, that makes me suspicious. This situation is his style now. When he was the prince, he was like this
Did it once."
"But compared to when he was the crown prince, His Majesty is now more generous. You see, the chessboard pieces themselves are still very valuable. At least these people won't be at a huge loss if they buy them, right?"
The Ninth Prince was not at all worried about others going to complain to Emperor Xia and saying bad things about him behind his back.
Because in front of Emperor Xia, he still dared to say...
"What do you mean? Father, does he still have such a dark history?"
Qin Bei was surprised.
I never expected it. I thought this was the first time that I had consumed Emperor Xia’s reputation.
It turns out that Emperor Xia himself had done this kind of thing before.
"No, look, no one is bidding now. That's because these people are still not sure that these things are sold by His Majesty voluntarily. They are afraid that they will offend His Majesty after buying them, so they dare not bid."
"Oh~ I feel relieved if you say that."
Qin Bei understood. It turned out that these people were afraid of selling things and Emperor Xia didn't know about it. In the end, when the things were obtained, Emperor Xia was offended, so the gain was really not worth the loss.
"rest assured?"
The Ninth Prince looked at Qin Bei doubtfully, not understanding what he said.
"Oh~ no, I mean I understand."
Qin Bei was stunned and almost spilled the beans.
The next second...
"What are you doing?"
The Ninth Prince looked at Qin Bei in surprise as he pressed the bid button.
"Isn't it true that no one dares to bid? I'll help them, and when they see the emperor's uncle bidding, they must believe that this thing is sold by the emperor, and they dare to compete with confidence."
"Oh, it's better if the auction doesn't go out."
The Ninth Prince said speechlessly. Although he knew this was impossible, he still wanted to be happy.
Sure enough, Feifei's explanations were of no use.
Because there is no strong evidence.
And now the bids in the Tianzi No. 1 auction room are obviously proving Fei Fei's words.
Everyone knows that the room at Tianzi No. 1 belongs to the Ninth Prince.
Since the Ninth Prince did not come out to stop it, but instead made a bid, this proves that the auction royal family is aware of it.
"Tianzi No. 1 bids 10 million spiritual stones!"
The offer made by the Ninth Prince actually made Concubine Fei feel a lot more confident.
'It seems that the sale of these things is not Prince Bei's nonsense, but authorized by Emperor Xia, so I can rest assured.'
