Even if he didn't ask, Shang Shuqing was prepared to explain clearly. Now that he asked, she no longer had the need to beat around the bush and nodded: "It depends on how you say it if you are nervous, but there are indeed many places to spend money when it is urgent. To stabilize the army, appease the people, and strengthen defense."
We need money everywhere."
Niu Youdao teased: "Isn't it like in Canglu County where they robbed the rich and gave to the poor? The entire Qingshan County is much larger than Canglu County."
What he said was that when he first settled in Canglu County, Shang Chaozong raided all the wealthy households in the county and quickly raised a batch of money and food.
Shang Shuqing shook his head: "It's not that I didn't have that idea. However, at this moment, I was able to succeed because there was no defense in Canglu County. I didn't know that my brother would suddenly attack. The situation in Qingshan County during the war was different. The rich locals
There was enough time to run away in advance, and everything that could be taken away was taken away, leaving only some property that could not be taken away, such as the house where the Taoist Master lives in front of us, so not much property was swept away!"
"As for the people, my brother has ordered a tax collection to meet their needs. If it hadn't been for that tax collection, it would be difficult to even spend these ten thousand gold coins for the time being. My brother has newly entered Qingshan County, and the people are still uneasy and suspicious.
And while we are waiting and watching, the tax has just been levied. If it is levied again soon, I am afraid that the people will lose their support. Once the frightened people flee or cooperate with the imperial court, the consequences will be really unimaginable."
Niu Youdao nodded slightly. It can be imagined that Tianyumen's support is just to gain profits. It is unlikely that Tianyumen will invest a lot of financial resources after establishing a territory. They asked you to guard the side on their behalf because they want to make money.
It's not taken out.
Tianyumen knows that it’s a good idea not to ask you for money for the time being when the difficulties here are there, but you still want to take money out of other people’s pockets?
Before the turnover can't be opened, you are at your wits end. What does Tianyumen want you to do as a guardian?
However, Feng Lingbo did not get any benefits from Qingshan County but brought in a large number of people and supplies. He was already unhappy. How could Feng Lingbo continue to support this side in large quantities?
This was his negligence! Niu Youdao was silent for a moment, stretched out his hand to press the golden ticket on the coffee table, and slowly pushed it back to Shang Shuqing.
This obviously meant that he would not accept it. Shang Shuqing looked cautious and said, "Does Master Tao think you are too young?"
Niu Youdao nodded: "If this is an offering to me, then the money is indeed a little short. I don't know how to distribute it to everyone." He turned his head and looked at Yuan Gang and others.
Being rejected in person is indeed a bit depressing.
Shang Shuqing's ugly face was instantly filled with embarrassment, and she felt uncomfortable with the lack of money. There was a hint of pleading in her tone: "Master Tao has been very kind to my brothers and sisters. Without Master Tao, my brothers and sisters would not be here."
Today, we also know that we can’t get rid of this little money. However, it is really difficult here now. When Qingshan County recovers, the due offerings will be provided to the Taoist master. At present..."
Niu Youdao raised his hand to interrupt: "The princess has misunderstood. What I mean is that the princess has underestimated Niu. I can afford the expense."
After saying that, he turned around and waved to Yuan Gang, "Let's take out 200,000 for the prince's emergency response."
Yuan Gang remained silent, took out a stack of gold tickets, counted twenty of them, and walked over while Shang Shuqing was stunned. Twenty gold tickets with a face value of 10,000 were placed in front of Shang Shuqing, and then he returned them.
Shang Shuqing stared blankly at the stack of gold tickets, and then looked up at Niu Youdao with extremely complicated eyes.
Niu Youdao stretched out his hand and said: "Two hundred thousand gold coins, the princess will take it and pass it on to the prince in case of emergency."
For him, he could not let other forces dominate the Shang Chaozong side, as that would be detrimental to his safety. He worked hard to help and support the Shang Chaozong, not only for the sake of the Shang brothers and sisters, but also for the present, future and future.
Safety must give an explanation to those who follow him and those who work for him.
Therefore, sooner or later, he will compete with Tianyumen for dominance over the Shang Dynasty Sect, but it is not the time to explode yet. Since Tianyumen is unwilling to help, he will not be polite.
Shang Shuqing instantly felt like being publicly humiliated and slapped in the face. She gave someone 10,000 gold coins, but they didn't want it. Instead, they offered 200,000 gold coins for emergency use.
This was a result she had never expected, which made her feel extremely embarrassed!
His face was already flushed, and his face looked even more ugly. He stood up and bit his lip with his silver teeth.
Before she could say anything, Niu Youdao seemed to know what she was thinking. He waved his hand and said: "Princess, please don't get me wrong. This money is temporarily lent to the prince. It is not given in vain. You can pay it back to me later when conditions are met."
Qingshan County is so tight that it can't even borrow money. Now someone is willing to lend money without any conditions attached. Why don't you give it a try?
Although Shang Shuqing didn't want it, facing the reality, it was difficult to refuse.
Finally, I accepted it with embarrassment and embarrassment.
When she returned to the governor's house in front, someone immediately led her to the prince's study, where Shang Chaozong and Lan Ruoting were waiting for her.
When they met, he saw that Shang Shuqing's expression was not right. Shang Chaozongli asked: "Qing'er, how are you?"
Shang Shuqing took out a 10,000 gold ticket from his sleeve and put it on the desk.
Lan Ruoting and Shang Chaozong looked at each other, and Shang Chaozong tried to ask: "Is he confiscated because he thinks it's too young?"
Shang Shuqing took out another stack of gold tickets from his sleeve and placed it on the table.
Lan Ruoting and Shang Chaozong were stunned. Lan Ruoting took some gold tickets and said in shock: "Two hundred thousand? Princess, what is going on?"
"Master Tao learned that we were in a tight situation and lent us two hundred thousand gold tickets for emergency use..."
After Shang Shuqing explained the general situation, the study fell into silence.
After a long time, Shang Chaozong muttered, "Where did he get so much money?"
Lan Ruoting: "Before, Tianyumen asked us if we knew that he looted Liuxian Sect, Fuyun Sect and Lingxiu Mountain's Star Picking Shop. This money is probably related to that. It's just that the three sects came to seek refuge again. This
We don’t know about the grudges and grudges, and we don’t know what he did.”
Zongzong of the Shang Dynasty was silent for a while, and suddenly he looked up to the sky and sighed, "I seem to be lacking everything, what else can I give you?"
Lan Ruoting and Shang Shuqing also fell silent. They both understood his feeling of not being rewarded. Others were asking for nothing, but Mr. Dao was always giving. From the beginning to the end, he never took advantage of them...
Early the next morning, Yuan Gang hung on a horizontal bar with both hands. He had been hanging on a horizontal bar for a long time by relying on the grip of his arms. He was also exercising the grip of his hands.
Several monks from Nanshan Temple were cleaning the courtyard, sweeping the floor.
It's always been like this before, now it's just back to normal.
Most of Niu Youdao's basic daily life is taken care of by this group of monks. From the daily food testing, washing and drying of clothes, to the hygiene of the living environment, every aspect is taken care of by the monks of Nanshan Temple.
This is what Yuan Gang means. In Niu Youdao's daily life, Yuan Gang has drawn up detailed steps in every link and asked the monks to strictly implement them without allowing other outsiders to interfere. This is mainly for Niu Youdao's safety.
, to prevent those with evil intentions from getting a chance to act.
In the peaceful morning light, Black Peony walked away from the sound of sweeping the floor, walked to the door of Niu Youdao's room, knocked on the door, and pushed the door open after receiving permission.
After a while, Black Peony opened several windows of Niu Youdao's room from the inside.
Yuan Gang, who was hanging on the horizontal bar, turned to look and saw Niu Youdao sitting in front of the dressing table from the window. Black Mudan began to comb Niu Youdao's hair.
At this moment, Shang Shuqing also arrived, smiling and nodding to the monk who paused to sweep the floor in the courtyard to salute, and also nodded to Yuan Gang who was hanging on the horizontal bar.
The next moment, after seeing Black Peony combing Niu Youdao through the window, Shang Shuqing paused and stared blankly.
Naturally, she came here as before. She had been combing Niu Youdao's hair in the past. Now Niu Youdao is back and intends to continue the past.
Before coming, she also hesitated whether to come over. After all, Master Dao already had a Black Peony with that kind of relationship. She hesitated for a while before coming. What she saw made her secretly lower her head, and a sad look flashed in her eyes.
, I found that it was a bit unnecessary and embarrassing that I came here, and I didn't know whether it was better to go over or turn around and leave.
I thought I was self-aware and could think openly and face it calmly, but after seeing it with my own eyes, I found that I still felt uncomfortable.
"Hi!" Yuan Gang, who was hanging on the horizontal bar, suddenly exhaled and started flipping on the horizontal bar.
Niu Youdao, who was sitting in front of the dressing table with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and looked up. Black Peony, who was carefully combing his hair, also looked up and looked out the window.
When the two of them saw Yuan Gang's movements, they also saw Shang Shuqing standing quietly in the courtyard.
Niu Youdao glanced meaningfully at Yuan Gang who jumped off the horizontal bar and strode away. He slightly tilted his head and said, "Please come over, Princess."
Black Mudan then let go, put down her comb and went out, quickly inviting Shang Shuqing in.
"What's wrong, Princess?" Niu Youdao asked with a smile.
Shang Shuqing said gently: "Come here and see if the Taoist master is used to the new place."
Niu Youdao said, "I thought the princess was here to comb my hair."
Shang Shuqing glanced at Black Mudan and said, "Sister Mudan will do the work for me, so there is no need for Qing'er to be rough."
Niu Youdao: "She? She has rough hands and feet, not as good as you."
Black Peony rolled her eyes and secretly cursed her heartlessness. I've been serving you for so long, and you just get a rough word?
"Go and prepare some water for washing." Niu Youdao turned his head and said to Black Mudan.
"Yes!" Black Peony responded and left.
There were only two people left in the room, and they were quiet. Niu Youdao, who hadn't finished combing his hair, slowly closed his eyes again.
Shang Shuqing, who didn't know whether to leave or stay, slightly scratched her lips, walked gently to the dressing table, took a comb, walked behind Niu Youdao, and started combing it carefully.
There was no need to look who it was, it felt comfortable and familiar. Niu Youdao could tell it was Shang Shuqing even without knowing it with his eyes closed. It was completely different from the feeling of Black Peony doing it. It was the tenderness that could be felt in every hair.
Careful, quietly flowing comfort.
While Black Peony always uses a comb to pull out a few strands of your hair when combing, this will not happen to Shang Shuqing, who will only make you feel that combing your hair is a pleasure.
