In the hall, all the servants lowered their heads, they had long been accustomed to this scene.

No one knew that the seemingly unrestrained and muddy seventh prince was not as indulgent as the outside world said, and the rules of his house were strict among the nobles in the capital.

Except for those who are reliable, almost no one can serve him closely, even if it is to serve tea and water.

And the maid just now was actually the little girl he picked up outside two years ago.

Originally, it was just a show of kindness, but who knew that he would pay himself in the end.

Sometimes Ji Jinyu himself would be surprised that the plot in the storybook would eventually happen to him.

This continuous drizzle wiped away the sweltering heat and irritability of the past few days. Near noon, this light rain suddenly exploded like a pea-sized raindrop getting bigger and bigger.

The world commercial firm, the Zhao family.

Lu Xiyue was sitting on the armchair, the window in the study was open, and there was a long corridor outside, so there was no need to worry about rainwater coming in.

Xiao Yunheng sat beside him, holding her wrist, and kneading it gently.

Zhao Pinqian stood aside, holding a ledger to record.

Occasionally, he would catch a glimpse of this tender scene beside him from the corner of his eye, and he couldn't help rolling his eyes.

"If you two are tired, go home and don't show your eyes to me!"

"Brother, it's raining so hard outside, can you bear to let us go home in the rain?"

The corner of Zhao Pinqian's mouth twitched, "You didn't come in a carriage, why is it raining!"

Lu Xiyue: "..."

"Brother, if it doesn't work, just put the accounts there and sort them out tomorrow."

I really don't blame her for taking a break, these two days the revenue of each shop has been sent back, before it was once a month, but now it is changed to two months, plus Zhao Pinqian has been working in the past few months Expand the branches of each store.

From this morning to Zhao's Mansion until now, she only took a break for half a cup of tea.

And the five boxes behind him were full of silver ingots and bank notes.

She really experienced the feeling of cramp in her hands from counting the money today.

"I can't do it tomorrow, I have work to do tomorrow." Zhao Pinqian's ink pen was as fast as flying, but the written characters were very clear and beautiful.

Lu Xiyue was also embarrassed to leave everything to him alone, so she took her hand away from Xiao Yunheng, rubbed it, and continued to work.

Xiao Yunheng didn't understand these things, but he could understand the account book, so he sorted it out with the two of them.

Since the two cooperated, apart from the few shops they opened before entering Beijing, Zhao Pinqian solved Zhao Tianmao's problem after entering Beijing, and then started working on business matters non-stop.

In just a few months, a total of 27 snack shops, 65 ice drink shops, eight fragrant dew shops, and six ready-made clothing shops have been opened in various places, with a total operating surplus of [-] taels.

Lu Xiyue made a rough calculation, and with the balance this time, she has more than 50 taels of cash alone, and countless precious jewelry.

Half of them were rewarded by Emperor Hui, the other half were rewarded by the Queen Mother, and some were given by Zhao Pinqian.

It's just these, not including those things from Xiao Yunheng's mother's house.

By the time all this was done, it was already evening.

Looking at the mountain of ledgers, Lu Xiyue clapped her hands, brushed off her sleeves, and took a deep breath, "Unexpectedly, now I'm a millionaire."

With so much money, even if she ran away now, it would be enough for her to live for several lifetimes.

Xiao Yunheng took her hand and pressed her wrist one by one to help her relieve the soreness caused by counting silver.

"Even if you don't do business, you can still be a rich man."

All his wealth has long been handed over to her.

Lu Xiyue let her do what she did, and even tilted her head to lean on him.

"How can I earn the same as what you give me?"

Lu Xiyue couldn't help but feel a sense of pride when she thought that so much vain money was earned by herself.

I think she was also a self-made rich woman in her previous life, but compared to now, that is still far behind.

Zhao Pinqian rushed out from behind the two: "You two are really good, hurry up and go home with your money."

Really blind.

Lu Xiyue sat upright and looked straight at him: "Brother, you are crossing a river and tearing down bridges."

Zhao Pinqian rolled his eyes: "You are ashamed to say that I am just a laborer you hired, and the money is paid by the two of us together. I did all the hard work by myself, so you can have fun secretly."

Every time he opened a new shop, he had to travel for two days.

What did this little girl do? Nine times out of ten, she and Xiao Yunheng spent the month before and after.

Lu Xiyue and Xiao Yunheng looked at each other and smiled.

Guilty is for sure, but the other party is Zhao Pinqian, so the guilty conscience will be less.

She raised her head and looked at the young man with affirmation and flattery in her eyes: "Brother, those who can do more work."

"thank you."

If it wasn't for his own sister, or a girl, he would definitely give her a good beating.

Facing Zhao Pinqian's speechless gaze, Lu Xiyue dragged Xiao Yunheng to the Zhao's house for a meal before leaving.

Now Zhao Pinqian is the head of the Zhao family, and he lives alone in a small courtyard, because he was tricked by Zhao Tianmao before, even when facing relatives and friends at home, he is mostly on guard, and rarely communicates with him on weekdays.

The Zhao family naturally didn't dare to say anything more. Most of Zhao Pinqian was framed before, and most of them made trouble. Now that they haven't come to settle accounts, they certainly don't have the reason to seek lessons in the past.

After a meal, the rain gradually stopped.

Seeing that the two were about to stay, Zhao Pinqian was not polite, and directly asked Ah Shui to lead someone to load the money into the carriage, and drove them away.

The carriage is wide, in order to make Lu Xiyue sit comfortably, Xiao Yunheng specially rebuilt a new carriage, and even half a bed can be put inside.

It was that luxurious carriage that was riding at the moment.

Lu Xiyue was half lying on the carriage, and because of a tiring day, she didn't care about her image at the moment, with one leg crossed over the other, and a pile of more than a dozen ledgers that were enough to reach her knees.

Xiao Yunheng sat on the other side, afraid that she would fall off the soft couch, he walked over after thinking for a while, picked her up horizontally, and put her on his lap.

Lu Xiyue put down the account book, looked at her with a pair of eyes, and said warily, "What are you doing?"

In broad daylight, still in the carriage, this man can't be wild.

The man raised his eyebrows, as if he had read her mind, and teased with a smile: "It's nothing, I'm afraid you will fall."

Lu Xiyue lowered her head and glanced at the positions of the two of them, they were indeed on the sidelines.

Well, she thought too much.

Seeing that her pupils were constantly moving, Xiao Yunheng smiled lightly, lowered his head closer, and whispered in her ear: "It's broad daylight, what are you thinking about?"
