My house was confiscated and I was exiled. I emptied the emperor's warehouse and fled.

"Amber, how is my grandmother?"

Qin Junyi stood up from the wheelchair and walked to the main room with Wu Shaohan's support.

He has not yet told the old people in the palace, including Amber, about his recovery. Just because they haven't seen each other for three months, he can't guarantee that no one will be bribed by the emperor.

Amber wanted to reach out and hold his other arm, but was blocked by Su Yunwan's body, so she had to follow Qin Junyi.

"Don't worry, young master, the old lady is in a good mood now. When the eldest lady came back, she was in a state of disbelief. She even had a big argument with Mrs. Pei after she returned to the house. When she learned that they were moving out, the old lady lost her temper."

After entering the main room, Su Yunwan found that there was a brand new set of wooden tables and chairs, with exquisite plum blossom patterns carved on the backrest, legs and feet.

Hu Hue said: "This is what the Third Young Master brought here. He said that he asked the young master and his wife to use it first, and wait for him to buy back the tung oil another day and process it again."

Qin Junyi opened the chair for Su Yunwan to sit: "When my second brother is depressed, he often does this to relieve himself."

"Why don't you go see him?" Su Yunwan asked.

"Yes, you have a good rest first."

After saying that, Qin Junyi looked at Hu Bo: "Hu Bo, are you okay?"

"There is indeed something." Amber replied, "Now we are short of useful servants. Do you need me to buy a few of them?"

Qin Junyi: "Wanwan, what do you think?"

Su Yunwan thought for a while and said, "Everywhere is in a mess right now. Let's wait until the mansion is built."

"That's fine." Qin Junyi agreed.

Amber added: "One more thing. The old lady arrived in Youzhou for the first time. She wanted to go to Fucheng some other time, but she was short of money... I think that now that I have settled down, can I directly distribute the moon silver to all the masters? Do you want to arrange it yourself?"

While serving the old lady during the day, Amber tactfully inquired about what happened on the road to exile, paying special attention to Su Yunwan, and learned about her use of commodities to replace moon silver.

Everyone knows that money is a person's courage, and only when it is in your own hands can you feel safe.

Amber immediately said: "If the old lady can't think of what she needs, it's better to go to Fucheng in person some other time. When the young master comes back, I will go and make a petition and ask the young master to restore the old system for future quotas and directly distribute the moon silver."

The old lady, who had suffered from the embarrassment of being penniless, was overjoyed when she heard this and praised her profusely.

Later, after Qin Ruolan and Mr. Pei had a big quarrel, Amber brought some fruits and snacks to visit.

To become the eldest maid of the prince, she must be well-rounded, shrewd and capable, and Amber is particularly good at winning people's hearts.

She reassured Qin Ruolan that as long as he respects his brother and obeys the arrangements, he can return to the Qin family once the storm is over.

As Qin Junyi's eldest maid who had always been with him, Amber's words often represented Qin Junyi's meaning.

Qin Ruolan felt relieved after hearing this and began to think about practical issues.

Food is the most important thing for the people, Qin Ruolan said distressedly: "Neither my mother nor I know how to cook."

Amber said: "Then ask a peasant woman from the village to cook."

"But neither my mother nor I have any money."

"As long as we provide food, there are many people competing for it. But living at home requires money."

Hu Hu pretended to think, and after a few breaths she said, "I have heard about Yue Yin. Let's do this. I will go find the young master..."

"It would be great if we could directly distribute the moon silver. Thank you." Qin Ruolan was so moved that she burst into tears.

"I don't dare to take it, and I don't dare to guarantee that I will succeed. I can only do my best."

"It's already good that you came to see me and even took the initiative to help mention it to my elder brother."

In this way, Amber's use of moon silver gained a lot of favor in front of the old lady and Qin Ruolan, whom Qin Junyi valued very much.

And if she dares to do this, she naturally knows Qin Junyi's weakness. As long as it is in the name of the old lady, he will definitely agree.

Sure enough, after Qin Junyi heard this, he immediately said: "Wan Wan, the Lu family has been separated and is no longer in Beiling Village. It's time to resume the payment of monthly silver."

In order to prevent the old lady's moon silver from being coaxed away by the Lu family, Su Yunwan proposed to buy items instead of the moon silver.

Now that everyone in the Lu family has been assigned to other villages, they can indeed directly distribute silver coins according to their quotas.

Su Yunwan nodded in approval, but she reminded: "Now that there is no military pay from the imperial court, you have to raise your own troops. It is also time to find a way to make money, so as not to sit back and live in vain."

The Great Zhou Dynasty implemented the military service system of "combining farming with war, integrating troops into farming", but military expenditures were still huge.

Weapons and equipment, ordnance losses, clothing supplies, officers' salaries, military merit rewards, death and injury pensions... these are all one after another. Who can live without money?

Even if the army and farmers are integrated, every time there is a battle, the farming time will be delayed, resulting in a shortage of food and grass, which must be purchased and allocated with military pay.

Only if you are willing to spend huge sums of money can you cultivate elite soldiers and generals.

Su Yunwan was not short of money at all and could help Qin Junyi in emergencies, but it was impossible for him to raise troops for him for a long time.

If you can't even support an army, how can you support the world once you ascend the throne?

It is not easy to conquer a country, but it is even harder to defend it.

If we want to unify the world and ensure peace and prosperity for the country and the people, we cannot do without those in power working diligently, caring for the people, and working hard to govern.

From the beginning, she had to set a good tone, so as not to waste a planned imperial supply.

It happened that Qin Junyi had never regarded Su Yunwan's money and materials as his own. After hearing Su Yunwan's words, he immediately nodded: "We really can't go on like this."

Amber heard the conversation and had a bad feeling in her heart.

Sure enough, Qin Junyi thought for a moment and then said: "Hu Bo, go back and tell your grandmother that now that the Qin family is a common people and has no source of income, there will be no distribution of quotas.

I asked Qian Rong to withdraw ten taels of silver from my grandmother. If it is not enough, please let me know. As for others, the public and secondary schools will provide supplies first, and they can also try to make money on their own. "

At the beginning of his exile, he followed the palace's practice of distributing moon silver in order to prevent his family from being separated under the emperor's assassination, so that he would have money with him.

Now that we have arrived in Youzhou, our family members from the northwest will be arriving soon. If we still follow the past monthly silver pattern, more than 100 people will receive hundreds of taels of silver a month.

Without the various overt and covert incomes brought by the past farms, shops, and official titles, it is impossible to maintain the Qin family's past prosperity while raising troops with the current family wealth.

When we are unable to open source, we can only reduce expenditure first.

Amber was well aware of the current situation and had also thought about the possibility of Yueyin decreasing, but she never expected that Qin Junyi simply stopped.

She was stunned for a long time, and then she took the order to see the old lady.

After the old lady learned about it, she immediately nodded and said: "Today is different from the past. It is really time to save money. Go and call all the women in the family over. I have something to say."
