After traveling through time, I married the prince by signing in

Chapter 50: The Half-Made Cotton Was Cheated Away

Yuan Man was almost moved. After all, he just suited her aesthetic taste. Being with such a man, just looking at his face would make her eat.

But when she thought of his identity, she immediately asked soberly: "She mentioned to me that you wanted to take her as a concubine before."

Hui Chengyuan coughed and said, "I have no intention of taking a concubine. I told her that just to test her."

"After all, I didn't know much about you at that time, so I wanted to test her thoughts."

Yuan Man almost rolled his eyes at him, "Since you have already tried it out, you probably know what she is thinking, so why bother to mention it to me again?"

"Your Highness, let me tell you this. I have no say in her marriage. If you want to marry her, you must obtain her consent."

Hui Chengyuan: “…”

Yuan Man glanced at him and continued, "The reason I asked so many questions is just because I don't want her to put her trust in the wrong person."

"Does the Marquis agree?" Hui Chengyuan looked at him.

Marquis Leshan agreed, which naturally became a help.

But the other party shook his head.

Yuan Man shook his head and said, "I don't want her to enter the palace. After all, you, who were born in the palace, know best what the imperial backyard is like. She is not cut out for palace fighting."

"She doesn't need palace fighting, and I don't plan to take a concubine." Hui Chengyuan naturally knew very well how filthy the inner court of the imperial palace was, so he didn't plan to take a concubine.

The Yuan and Manchu people were confused. Why was this prince different from the others?

Not taking concubines or matrons, and also writing a letter of guarantee.

This is the first choice for a good man who makes people fall in love with him in modern times!

Yuanman almost wanted to slap himself in the face to wake himself up. After only meeting each other a few times, one can never know a person’s heart by his appearance.

"I will help you convey what the prince said, but I can't guarantee what she thinks."

She had to think about it.

The conditions are very tempting, but you can't believe him blindly.

The abbot said he would be a wise ruler, but he never said he would be a good husband. We need to wait and see. Just stay calm.

Oh, I forgot to send some sweet potatoes to the abbot. I’ll bring some to visit him next time.

"Thank you very much, My Lord." Hui Chengyuan stood up and clasped his fists.

"My Lord, do you know where Shu Li has gone?" After her escape, they only found out that she had been to Pinghe City, and then there was no trace of her.

Yuan Man glanced at him and nodded, "I know, but I can't tell Your Highness without her permission. Please forgive me."

Hui Chengyuan nodded to show his understanding, "Please tell your Majesty that I want to see her."

Yuan Man raised his eyebrows and nodded.

Naturally, I guessed what he wanted to say when he saw Shu Li.

But he was sincere. After all, with his status, no one could resist if he gave the order directly.

It is also possible that he took into consideration the identity of Marquis Leshan.

At this time, a maid came in with the dishes. After placing them, she lowered her eyes, bowed, and left without saying a word.

Hui Chengyuan raised his hand and said, "My Lord, please eat first."

Yuanman looked at the three dishes and a soup in front of him, and waited until Hui Chengyuan picked up the chopsticks before starting to eat.

After dinner, Hui Chengyuan started talking about food.

Yuanman thought about it and decided to sell potatoes for 20% more and stop selling sweet potatoes. She wanted to keep them just in case and for seeds.

In the end, Hui Chengyuan was able to trick away half of the cotton.

After leaving Lu Ting, Yuan Man only felt that Hui Chengyuan was a master negotiator and he was no match at all.

Next time there is such a negotiation, we must let people with such talents go.

When Yuanman returned to the inn, he no longer thought about Hui Chengyuan. As for what he mentioned, he just let it go.

And there was no way she would take the initiative to talk to him about this.

I opened the map and looked at it. Jingcheng is in the southwest, quite a distance from here.

I'd better go back first, send back the almighty manager rewarded by the system, and make arrangements before signing in.

When Yuan Man returned to the foot of Qinhe Mountain, he called out the manager and the accountant.

The almighty butler is a middle-aged man who looks to be in his thirties and has a blessed appearance.

"Manager, from now on you will be called Yuan Rui, and you will be in charge of the affairs of Qin Heshan and Jubao Tower."

"Yes, thank you for the name, my lord." Yuan Rui responded with a salute.

As for the five accountants, Yuan Man thought for a moment and said, "From now on, you will be called Yuan Hui and be in charge of Qin Heshan's accounts."

"Your name is Yuan Chi, and you are responsible for collecting the accounts of Shangqing Pavilion and Yuanlai Inn."

"Your name is Yuanchou, and you are responsible for collecting the accounts of the various manors."

"Your name is Yuanli, your name is Yuanxi. You two will temporarily assist Yuanchi and Yuanchou. I will arrange for you when the need arises."

Yuan Man became famous because of these two idioms: holding the counting sticks and calculating with great skill, analyzing the smallest details.

"Yes, thank you for the name, master." The five accountants bowed and responded.

"Do you know martial arts?"

The six people nodded.

Yuanman was not surprised that the butler knew martial arts, after all, he was an almighty butler, but she was surprised that the accountants all knew martial arts.

But he didn't ask any more questions and took him up the mountain.

After washing up, he played with Yuanbao for a while, then went to check on the children. Seeing that they were all listening to Feng Ziyu's class, he did not disturb them and went to take care of their affairs.

She let the steward directly manage the Hanging Palace and all the shops under her name.

And all the shopkeepers were under his management.

Because she planned to combine all those shops under the name of Jubaolou.

There was no need for her to explain much about the accountant's job content. He just copied the addresses of all the stores to Yuanchi and Yuanli.

He also copied the addresses of all the farms to Yuan Chou and Yuan Xi, and asked them to check the accounts on time. If there were any problems, they should report to Yuan Rui and ask him to arrange for a solution.

The money collected from shops and farms all over the country was used to cover the expenses of Qin Heshan and Jubaolou.

As for the fifty shopkeepers, she had already made up her mind. Thirty-six of them would take over Yuanlai Inn, and the original shopkeepers would stay as deputy shopkeepers, and their salaries would remain the same.

If you can't or don't want to, just leave.

She would give them the deeds of Yuanlai Inns in various places and let them take over them themselves.

It is difficult to name these fifty people.

Yuan Man thought about it and decided that since the Yuanlai Inns were to be dispersed to various prefectures, they should be named after the prefectures they were destined for.

He took out thirty-six deeds and began to distribute them. Whoever received the deeds in the city would be named Yuan, taking the first character of the city.

As for the shopkeeper of Shangqing Pavilion, no problems have been found so far. If Yuanhui finds out the problem, then we will replace him.

The shop she signed in at in Rongcheng was still vacant, and she planned to send two shopkeepers to open it up and sell food, cloth and clothing.

So they named them Yuanrong and Yuancheng, gave them the deeds to the ten shops, and gave them the starting silver. By the time the shops were renovated, the grain from all over the place had almost been collected.

The remaining twelve people all stayed in Qinheshan and would be named after arrangements were made.

Then she called Yuanyue over and asked him to tidy up the third floor of the West Hall and order bookshelves as she wanted to build a library.

The size of the West Hall is more than enough to house 100,000 volumes of books.

After Yuan Yue waited for her to finish her instructions and bowed to accept them, he took out the deed to the house he had bought in Pinghe City.

"Master, this house is the closest to Qin Heshan, and it is also the largest one."

"I spent a total of 67,000 taels to buy it. Please take a look."

Yuan Man took the deed, glanced at it, and handed it back to him. "Keep it. You will be in charge of that place from now on. It is a station to contact Qin Heshan."

Yuanyue nodded and accepted the deed.
