Chapter 67: Has she set her sights on the concubines in the palace?Although General Lu's speech was full of saliva for more than half an hour, it was indeed sincere and heartfelt. But Yun Shu's desire not to add to the burden of his working life was also not false at all. Fortunately, she had almost finished drawing the design of the mechanism in the backyard of the restaurant. The construction of facilities similar to those in Fengyang Palace and the restaurant has also been completed. You can start making money comfortably! Yun Shu's enthusiasm instantly reached its peak that afternoon when the last floor tile of Fengyang Palace was closed. As soon as he got out of school from the upper study, he immediately went to the imperial study. "Father, father, father!" "You picked up some money? You look so happy!" Emperor Xuanwu, who obviously knew exactly what his daughter liked best, raised his eyes as usual: "Tell me, what's the matter?" "Father," Yun Shu took two steps forward, revealing an extremely well-behaved expression: "Are you cold?"
"What do you say?" Emperor Xuanwu snorted and laughed. It is now the second day of the twelfth lunar month, and there is less than a month left until New Year's Eve. The first snow even fell two days ago. The branches outside are still hung with crystal clear icicles. The palace servants who passed by wanted to hide their heads in their collars when they walked. However, the imperial study where Emperor Xuanwu was located was much better than other places. Not only did they set out a lot of charcoal basins, Outside the wall behind him, there was a separate fire wall separated by stone slabs. There was a young eunuch in charge of the fire wall who was always watching it and keeping that wall hot. Emperor Xuanwu just sat in front of the desk without moving and didn't feel very cold. However, the farther away from the wall, the lower the temperature, and the disadvantages are still obvious. Yun Shu secretly moved closer to the wall: "Father, do you still remember the surprise I told you about when you went to Fengyang Palace a few days ago?" "Has it been built?" Emperor Xuanwu raised his eyebrows, then he remembered that the ten-day deadline had indeed arrived. "You want me to visit you again?" "Of course, good things must be shown to Father first!" Nice words don't cost money anyway, Yun Shu looked at him with admiration: "Father, go and take a look!" "You're so old and still acting like a spoiled brat!" Emperor Xuanwu clicked his tongue in disdain while honestly asking Li Dehai to come forward, unable to even suppress the upturned corners of his mouth.
Yun Shule followed him happily. Even when she reached the door of the imperial study and opened the door, she was blown into a quail by the cold wind. However, her crescent eyes, which were curved because of her impending wealth, were still smiling. Emperor Xuanwu: “…” Look at her silly look! Is she so happy that he visited her palace? A warm fatherly heart slowly rose in the cold wind. Emperor Xuanwu, who sat in the dragon chariot, lifted the curtain and glanced at Yun Shu, who was wrapped in a thick cloak and looked like a ball of fur. He raised the last word: "Still not coming up?" "My son, thank you very much, Father!" Who would want to walk for half an hour in the snow and ice when you can go back in the warm dragon chariot? Yun Shu didn't say a word of refusal, fearing that if he was a step too slow, his cheap father would go back on his word. She used her hands and feet to get into the dragon chariot, but she didn't sit down next to Emperor Xuanwu without any ceremony. Instead, she sat down next to the small bronze tripod filled with silver frost charcoal, crossed her legs and looked up to talk to Emperor Xuanwu: "Oh, by the way, Father, I have roughly calculated the amount of investment required for the hotel building. It's a little bit too much." Emperor Xuanwu glanced at her and said with a half-smile: “How much is a bit too much?” "At once……" Yun Shu's eyes wandered for a moment, and he sounded a little timid when he spoke: "A few hundred thousand taels!" Hundreds of thousands? She really dared to speak! Emperor Xuanwu felt that this figure was too outrageous, but at the same time he felt that an investment of several hundred thousand taels of silver at the beginning would allow his private treasury to exceed the national treasury in two years, and it seemed reasonable to do so. He was silent for a moment, and suddenly thought of another question - "But I remember that you only have a little over 100,000 taels in your hand, right?" The little bit he contributed was his reward and the little bit he earned from the Capital Weekly. The remaining 100,000 taels were what she had swindled from that idiot Lao Liu when she was trying to publish a weekly newspaper in the capital. Emperor Xuanwu looked down at Yunshu with interest: "I still remember that you said before that the future profits earned by the restaurant will be divided according to the proportion of my investment and yours. According to your calculation, wouldn't the majority of the restaurant's profits belong to me?" "I don't mind letting you take more, but..." Yun Shu had expected Emperor Xuanwu to ask this question, so he sighed helplessly: “But I am worried that if the ministers in the court knew about this, the impeachment memorials would pile up like a mountain again. Besides, I have promised you before that this restaurant will definitely be opened in my name." Emperor Xuanwu: “?” He almost laughed out of anger:
"You don't want me to pay more money but only get a smaller share, do you?" "How is that possible!" Yun Shu seemed quite aggrieved after hearing this: "Am I such an unreasonable person?" "Then tell me, what are you going to do?" Emperor Xuanwu was not fooled by her expression this time, and nodded calmly: "Are you rich?" "If you want to have it...it's not impossible." Yun Shu secretly glanced at Emperor Xuanwu and slowly stretched out his little tail to test "Father, if a bunch of people suddenly come to ask me for help in a few days, can I charge them?" A group of people came to her for help? Emperor Xuanwu subconsciously thought of General Lu Jingkun, who had brought the treasure to Yunshu a few days ago, and nodded without hesitation: "Why not? I am still your father! If I want to open a restaurant with you, I have to pay for it, right?" "Father said so." Yun Shu smiled shyly: "But they are not my biological mothers after all. I am worried that if I speak rashly, the ladies will be unhappy." Emperor Xuanwu: “……?” So this brat went through so much trouble and finally set his sights on the concubines in his harem? ! Emperor Xuanwu glared at him angrily. Yun Shu innocently played dumb. Emperor Xuanwu: “!!” Don't joke, After all, these were words he had just spoken, and Emperor Xuanwu couldn't immediately change his words and slap himself in the face. He snorted coldly, but reacted quickly: "My concubines would not come to you for no reason. It must be related to the 'surprise' that you begged me to see with my own eyes today, right?" "Father is wise!" Yun Shu flattered the dragon: "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from you, Father!" (End of this chapter)
