She only wants to do infrastructure construction

Chapter 23

The old housekeeper was also surprised: "So fast?"

Every four months, Eunuch Qian will come to Taihe City, usually on the fifteenth day.

At this time, there were still a few days before the fifteenth day, and the old housekeeper did not expect Eunuch Qian to come over so soon.

Without further delay, the two locked the warehouse and went outside.

At this time, in the living room of the palace, there stood a father-in-law with white hair and a childlike face, and Zi Cui was pouring tea for the father-in-law.

The father-in-law didn't know whether it was because the master was embarrassed to sit down when he didn't arrive or because he disliked the wooden chair's bare buttocks. In short, he just looked up and down the room with his hands in his hands, and turned a deaf ear to anyone who invited him to sit down.

The work and rest must be complete, he sighed while looking around.

"The fifth prince has lofty aspirations and is dedicated to serving the people. He enriches the people but suffers himself. Look at this house, it has been empty for five years. This kind of open-mindedness is really admirable."

"The rich father-in-law appreciates it, but the master's efforts are not in vain."

The old butler responded with a smile.

Only then did Eunuch Qian turn his head, and then saw the strange woman behind the old housekeeper.

He didn't bother to greet the old housekeeper, he just bowed to Li Yewu: "This old slave pays homage to his wife."

Li Yewu was a little flattered.

On the way here, the old housekeeper said that this Eunuch Qian is a celebrity around His Majesty, he helps His Majesty take care of his private property, and the amount of money he handles every day is unimaginable.

In addition, Eunuch Qian will go south every quarter to send money to the master, which can be regarded as a kind of honor from His Majesty.

Wouldn't Li Yewu be surprised that such a big celebrity who is also an important position would salute to a person who has no status like her.

In the serious Zhai Dou Wen, she can only be regarded as a housemaid or concubine in this situation, and she is not qualified to meet guests, let alone a eunuch who is favored by His Majesty.

Therefore, Li Yewu tactfully avoided Eunuch Qian's gift.

"You are too polite, how dare my little girl accept such a big gift from you."

Li Yewu once again showed the harmless face of people and animals yesterday when he faced Cui Fu Yin.

The old housekeeper and a group of servants noticed her actions, but they didn't say anything.

It's good that the little lady is like this... Uh, it's also very good.

It is estimated that this is the ability to talk nonsense to people and talk nonsense that she has cultivated in her career as a flower seller.

This kind of ability may not be pleasing to the outside, but at least it is very useful in the royal family.

Eunuch Qian doesn't care about her real face, anyway, they deal with each other up to four times a year, as long as they maintain the superficial friendship, as for the matter of deep friendship...Leave it to the butler Neng who meets all year round.

It's not his turn to worry.

So Eunuch Qian just smiled lightly, stretched out his orchid finger and looked out a little.

"This time I not only sent the fifth prince's money, but also entrusted by the fifth prince to give Madam some things you like."

Li Yewu was a little surprised: "What... what?"

Xiao Jiuxi gave her something?
real or fake?

Was it because she read the book too quickly and missed some key points?Why is there this link?
Li Yewu couldn't understand it.

Seeing Li Yewu's bewildered expression, Eunuch Qian smiled.

"Fifth Prince takes pity on you for being lovesick and homesick."

"Uh..." Li Yewu felt a little guilty.

She said she didn't, would Xiao Jiuxi take the things back?

However, if you send it all away, how can you return it.

Li Yewu rubbed his hands secretly and looked into the courtyard.

I saw six large boxes placed in the courtyard.

The wooden box looked heavy and strong at first glance, and I didn't know what was inside.

If there is gold in the box, then she is rich!There are at least tens of thousands of taels of gold, and the infrastructure is completely enough!

It seems that God opened his eyes!
Li Yewu suppressed the excitement in her heart, and kindly invited Eunuch Qian to stay for one night. She also had a return gift for the Fifth Prince, so she had to trouble Eunuch Qian to pass it on.

Eunuch Qian has no doubt that he agreed.

"Anyway, the old slave arrived two days early, so it's okay to play here for a while, as long as Madam is ready to call the old slave."

"Father-in-law with money!"

Li Yewu excitedly sent the box into the warehouse, and then began to count the things to be sent to the imperial capital.

Speaking of which, there are two ways to transport goods in Dachu. One is the land route, which mainly relies on caravans to transport goods. However, this method is very labor-intensive and takes a long time, and you have to deal with all kinds of green forest heroes.

Another way is by water.

The speed of the waterway is fast, and the amount that can be transported is large, and there are basically no bandits.

However, in Dachu, the waterways belong to the government, and ordinary people are not qualified to transport goods by waterways except for the needs of going in and out.

Because cargo ships are very important strategic materials, only officials have them.

However, just because common people can't use it doesn't mean that Li Yewu can't use it!

She was worrying about how to launder money, and now there is a solution.

She only needs to transport more than 100 sheep and "precious medicinal herbs" to the capital, and make the illusion that she got the money to repay the debt through Xiao Jiuxi's business, and she can use the money in the warehouse logically.

Of course, this is only a part, and the other part is these six treasure chests.

All she had to say was that the gold, silver and jewelry were Xiao Jiuxi's private money, which was transported by Eunuch Qian, so that no one would doubt where her money came from.

Just do what you say, and while Eunuch Qian is resting in the palace, Li Yewu hurriedly brewed medicinal materials and counted the sheep.

Of course, the so-called brewing medicinal materials are only for the handyman in the mansion.

Although Li Yewu pretended to trust them, it was actually a lie.

Of course, not all of them have suspicious identities. In fact, those who left were indeed innocent, but those who stayed had problems.

The common people in Taihe City are too lazy to do things, and they are only fools when they face the issue of life and death.

As for the remaining ones, except for a very few who are really pursuing their dreams, most of the rest have tasks that have not been completed.

Of course, Li Yewu didn't tell anyone about this guess.After all, when the water is clear, there will be no fish. If she has cleaned up all the eyeliner, it will be very difficult to follow the clues in the future.

So she decided to act, and if she had the chance, she would pull out these hidden stakes buried in Prince Shang's Mansion overnight!
Eunuch Qian was stunned by the sight before he was about to leave.

Speaking of official cargo ships, there are three types, one is used by His Majesty to go on tour, the second is used to transport large amounts of tribute, and the other is used to provide assistance to important figures.

Eunuch Qian's boat belongs to the latter.

He is going to inspect the property and send money to the prince and princess, so the boat is essential.

But today, the deck of his love boat is full of sheep, densely packed with more than 100 sheep.

They screamed one after another, and their sheep dung dropped one by one.

Eunuch Qian is not well.

Li Yewu smiled the sweetest: "The prince said that he asked you to help transport some sheep. He wanted to send His Majesty and his old man home, and he asked me to prepare some medicinal materials. After all, it is hard work for you to help deliver them."

"..." Eunuch Qian twitched the corners of his mouth but couldn't laugh.
