When Zhu Rong returned to Prince Qin's mansion, it was already afternoon.
At noon.
He and Zhao Min accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma for a family banquet in the palace.
He also introduced the other princes and princesses to Zhao Min.
This could be considered the first large-scale meeting between the bride and her husband's family!
Of course, he would definitely receive a red packet.
Not only did Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma prepare red packets for Zhao Min.
Zhao Min had also prepared a large number of red packets for Zhu Rong's younger siblings.
At present, the Zhu family was thriving.
Except for Crown Prince Zhu Biao and Zhu Rong.
Zhu Yuanzhang also had nine princes and ten princesses, a total of 21 people.
This did not include the pregnant concubines and nobles in the harem.
Of course, although Old Zhu had many princes and princesses, most of them were underage.
Among the princes, Zhu Biao was definitely the oldest. He was seventeen years old this year!
Among the royal daughters, the oldest was Princess Lin An Zhu Jingjing.
She was born to Noble Consort Sun. She was eleven years old this year and was a little loli.
So...
This time, Zhu Rong had really spent a lot of money on this trip to the palace. In order to give out red packets, he had almost emptied King Qin's residence.
He had no choice.
After all, Prince Qin's residence was poor.
Although Zhu Rong had the title of King of Qin, it was only a title and did not have a clear fief.
As a result, King Qin's Mansion naturally had no income.
Usually, they could only rely on the Imperial Clan Court to barely survive.
Later on, a Taotie who cultivated the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art appeared.
That was even more inexplicable.
It was really not something that could be summarized with the word 'poor'.
When Zhao Min returned to Prince Qin's Mansion and saw the accounts of the treasury submitted by Butler Wang Gui, she was completely speechless.
That was because, at the moment, all the assets in Prince Qin's mansion added together were not as valuable as her dowry.
No, it was not even one-tenth of her dowry.
From this, you can see how poor King Qin's Residence is now.
"Hehe, are you sure this is King Qin's Mansion and not some beggar's lair?”
"In the entire treasury, all the money added together doesn't even amount to a thousand taels of silver.”
"The huge King Qin's Mansion doesn't even have any income and is relying on the Imperial Clan Court to survive. I really don't know how you can be the King of Qin.”
After Zhao Min finished looking through the accounts of Prince Qin's residence, she mocked mercilessly.
All the money in the entire Imperial Residence added up to less than a thousand taels of silver.
If this matter were to spread out, it would probably make people laugh their heads off.
What was this amount of silver enough for?
If it was in the past, it would probably not even be enough for her to spend on a meal.
Zhao Min was completely speechless.
She looked at Zhu Rong and wondered how this guy lived his life.
He couldn't possibly be like the people at the bottom, having three meals a day with salted vegetables and cornbread, right?
Thinking of this scene, Zhao Min instantly felt bad.
She had never been so poor since she was young.
"What? There's less than a thousand taels left in the entire treasury?”
Hearing this, Zhu Rong was also stunned. He turned to look at Wang Gui.
He had never paid attention to the money and daily expenses in the residence, and he did not expect King Qin's residence to be so poor.
The importance of money, Zhu Xiong understood it better than anyone else.
In other words, every ordinary person from the future would value it more.
He had no choice.
Because in the future, it was really difficult to move without money.
If he knew that Prince Qin's residence was so poor, he would have thought of ways to earn money.
How could he be like now, staying in the residence and practicing martial arts without a care in the world?
Faced with Zhu Rong's probing gaze, Wang Gui could not help but laugh bitterly and said,"Replying to your highness, there was originally some money in the residence. However, because of the marriage of the prince and your highness 'recent consumption of martial arts, so…"
Wang Gui didn't say anything else.
However, Zhu Rong and Zhao Min understood what he meant and expressed their understanding at the same time.
This was not difficult to understand.
Although the Imperial Clan Court would allocate a sum of money to King Qin's Mansion every month, considering the current state of the Imperial Court and the palace, this sum of money was not too much.
As for King Qin's residence, as the residence of a Great Ming Prince, the daily expenses were really not too much.
There were also many people who needed to be fed.
For example, the palace guards, maids, and servants.
There were at least a few hundred of them.
The food, clothing, housing, transportation, salary, and rewards for hundreds of people could not be paid without a few thousand taels of silver a month.
In addition, there was the King of Qin, Zhu Rong.
As the Prince of Great Ming, Zhu Rong had to pay attention to his cards.
Therefore, the monthly expenses of the Imperial Residence would be at least a few thousand taels.
If it was a holiday, it might cost tens of thousands of taels of silver.
As for Zhu He, the King of Qin.
Although he already had a title, his fief had not been determined.
In addition, the Imperial Residence had just opened not long ago.
There were no shops or land deeds.
Therefore, the main sources of finance for Prince Qin's mansion were Zhu Rong's salary, the rewards from the palace, the subsidies from the Imperial Clan Court, and the relief from Empress Ma.
Of course, there was also the savings that the original body had before opening the residence.
However, this money could only maintain the operation of King Qin's residence so that King Qin's residence would not run out of food.
Later on, Zhu Xiong started to cultivate the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, and his daily consumption increased drastically.
In addition, the grand wedding of the King of Qin was a huge expense.
Therefore, in the end, the huge King Qin's Residence was empty.
If they couldn't think of a solution as soon as possible, everyone in the residence would probably starve.
When Zhu Rong thought of this, he could not help but frown.
He wasn't afraid of lacking money!
This was because for a transmigrator, and a transmigrator who had become a Great Ming Prince.
It was really easy to earn money.
Not to mention the skills that the netizens in his previous life jokingly called necessary for transmigrators, such as brewing wine, refining sugar, making salt, making ice, soap, perfume, smelting steel, cement, glass, and so on.
Just the identity of the Great Ming Prince alone.
Zhu Rong had a hundred ways to earn a fortune without violating the laws of the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, Zhu Xiong thought about it and gave up on the second method.
"Yes, I understand. I'll settle it later. You can leave first.”
He thought for a moment and quickly came up with an idea. He spoke to Butler Wang Gui.
After Wang Gui left, Zhao Min couldn't hold it in any longer and mocked,""Hehe, I wonder how our King Qin is going to solve this problem?”
"We can't go to the palace and ask the emperor for money, right?”
Seeing Zhu Rong's deflated appearance, Zhao Min felt extremely happy.
Hmph, you dare to bully this princess!
It was fine now.
I would like to see how you solve the financial problem of King Qin's Mansion.
Of course, if this bastard is willing to beg me, I will be able to do it.
I might be merciful enough to help him solve this problem.
When Zhu Rong heard this, he couldn't help but look at Zhao Min and pretended to be surprised."Wang Fei is indeed exceptionally intelligent, she can even guess this king's thoughts!”
"This Prince is preparing to head to the Imperial Palace to borrow a hundred thousand or eighty thousand taels of silver from Imperial Father!”
