Chapter 521 The Princes Riding the Wind and Waves (13)
"Regular business can be opening an inn or restaurant, with luxurious decorations and special signs to make people feel respected. Unconventional business is farming..."
Qi Yuan: "Stop! I only need to know the conventional ones. As for the unconventional ones, just forget about them!"
Qi Li agreed obediently: "Yes. I understand. Father, there are actually many things that can be sold. For example, your handwriting, the teacups you used..."
"Who dares to use something I have used?!" Qi Yuan's eyes almost popped out.
What idea did this bastard come up with? !
Can ordinary people use the emperor's supplies?
"You can collect it. And..." Yinzhen looked at his father cautiously.
This look made Qi Yuan's heart skip a beat. He intuitively felt that Xiao Jiu had not finished speaking, and that this was not what he wanted to hear.
But he was born with a rebellious nature: "And what?! Don't worry, just say it!"
Xiaojiu knelt down with a plop and kowtowed to his father:
"Father, you don't know that many of the things you asked to be thrown away have been bought by others. The paper you tore up, the porcelain you accidentally broke..."
Qi Yuan: ??? !!!
"Those things can actually be sold for money?!"
Qi Yuan thought about how much junk he had thrown away in the more than 30 years since he ascended the throne, and suddenly he felt as if he had been hit hard in the heart.
"This is just like how you, father, like Wang Youjun's calligraphy and also pay attention to the inkstones he used."
Xiaojiu obviously does have some business acumen.
Although he didn't know the term "celebrity peripherals", he already understood the essence of the matter.
After Qi Yuan thought about it carefully, he felt more and more that Xiao Jiu was right.
He thought about it and looked at Xiaojiu who was kneeling on the ground.
The eldest brother, the prince and the fourth brother were all sent out to work.
Adding a small nine should be fine, right?
The more Qi Yuan thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
A smile immediately appeared on his face: "Xiaojiu, my father has an errand for you, are you willing to help him?"
Xiaojiu looked up in confusion: "Huh?"
He looked at his father blankly, "Father, what's the matter?"
It's strange. I always feel that my father's smile looks weird right now.
"Are you willing to help our father?" Qi Yuan did not rush to answer, but asked again.
Xiaojiu felt something was wrong.
But after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what was wrong. He just nodded blankly:
"Yes! Xiaojiu is willing to share father's worries!"
The emperor asked him to help!
He should be very happy.
But looking at his father's expression, Xiaojiu just felt weird.
"it is good!"
Qi Yuan slammed the table and said, "Father knows that our Xiaojiu is a good child! Come, get up quickly, listen to me..."
Xiaojiu, who was personally helped up by her own father, was in a daze.
After listening to his father's words, he felt that his brain was not enough:
"Father, what did you say?"
Is he hallucinating?
The emperor actually let him take over the Ministry of Internal Affairs? !
"You heard it right." Qi Yuan nodded affirmatively.
Xiao Jiu opened his eyes wide: "But, I am only eight and a half years old this year!"
He's not even nine years old!
Is father going to start making him work?
Thinking about how the Crown Prince is so busy every day and always looks very tired when he comes to see them.
Xiaojiu shuddered.
"It's okay. You like making money, don't you? Don't worry about anything else, just focus on making money. Just use the methods you just mentioned!"
Xiaojiu:……
He looked at his father's face and felt that the tall and majestic image of his father in his mind was shattered into pieces in an instant.
"Father, don't you think there is a problem?"
Xiaojiu looked at his father with a strange look.
Qi Yuan was calm:
"If others can sell them, why can't I? Besides, they are all my things! I can't let others pick them up and sell them for money!"
Although the national treasury has not been very empty in recent years, it is still not enough.
If something happens and money is needed, there will be a vacuum at that time!
Xiaojiu:……
That makes sense.
But he still felt that his father was a little strange.
But he didn't dare to say it, nor did he dare to ask, so he could only nod obediently: "Okay! I'll do it!"
"Okay!" Qi Yuan made the decision, "You will take up your post today!"
Xiaojiu:……
I feel that my father is more and more weird.
"Father, what you promised me..."
"Oh, yes, go ahead."
Xiaojiu's face was serious, and he knelt down again: "I would like to ask the emperor for permission to let my tenth brother move to the prince's residence in advance and live with me!"
"Hey! Just a small matter? I agree. Now you are in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, you can arrange this matter yourself."
Xiao Jiu was delighted: "Thank you, Father! I will go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to take up my post right away!"
After saying that, he stood up and ran out in a hurry.
The joy on his little face was so obvious that Qi Yuan was stunned for a moment:
"Cao Bai, follow me and take a look."
"Here."
Cao Bai is the chief steward beside Qi Yuan and Qi Yuan's confidant.
As soon as Cao Bai left, Qi Yuan sat back on the dragon throne and looked at the rosewood box in front of him.
When he thought about the box containing the money earned by his mother and how she earned the money, he felt his temples throbbing.
He suddenly realized that he really thought too highly of himself.
Since he got married at the age of sixteen and took power, he seldom asked for his mother's opinion.
The queen mother was also indifferent and just stayed idle, with no intention of interfering at all.
He thought that he had been quite diligent in his duties as emperor over the years, which was considered a good job.
But recently, his mother had quietly taught him several lessons.
Make him realize that he is too proud.
If his mother had not mentioned his sons calmly, he would not have thought of letting the children get started.
If his mother had not sent him such a large sum of money today and mentioned Xiaojiu, he would not have known how much money his treasury had missed out on over the years!
Qi Yuan thought for a moment, glanced at the memorials on the table and said, "Someone come."
"His Majesty."
"Call the third prince to see me."
He has many sons, and since even Xiaojiu is working, Xiaosan and the others should not be idle either.
"Yes." The young eunuch responded and was about to leave.
"and many more."
"Your Majesty?" The young eunuch paused.
"Call Xiaowu as well."
The child is still young, and it is a bit tiring to review so many memorials by myself.
"Here."
The young eunuch waited for a while, and seeing that His Majesty had no further instructions, he retreated respectfully.
Qi Yuan had already started thinking about what kind of work to assign to the other children.
Although my son is not very old.
But he ascended the throne at the age of eight.
His sons shouldn't be too bad, right? !
Even though Xiaoqi has a leg disease, it doesn't mean he can't do things.
Xiaoba...
The identity is not very good, but it does not affect the work!
By the way, Xiaojiu just said that Xiaoshi is almost eight years old.
Very good, Xiao Shi can use it too.
With so much labor, how come he hadn't noticed it before? !
Oversight!
