The main city of Yanzhou.
Within the palace.
Lu Li rubbed his eyes, unable to believe that the pile of files in front of him was the matter he had to deal with next.
At this moment, Ge Xinyue walked into the room holding a pile of new files. When she saw Lu Li, who was stunned, she couldn't help but smile and said: "As the general manager of Prince Yan's Mansion, this scene scares you? "
Lu Li came back to his senses, his throat moved slightly, but when he saw the pile of files in Ge Xinyue's hand, he couldn't help but ask, "Any more?"
boom!
Ge Xinyue put the pile of files on Lu Li's desk and said, "This is the last batch. It's the end of the month and things are backlogged a lot. Normally, it wouldn't be so busy."
Lu Li couldn't help but said: "Logically speaking, I am the general manager of the Foreign Affairs Office. These files should be classified under the Ministry of Internal Affairs, right?"
"What I have to deal with is three times more than what you have."
Ge Xinyue said lightly: "If you want to exchange with me, I will be happy to do so."
After hearing the terrifying figure of three times, Lu Li immediately gave up the idea of blaming the blame and picked up a file to read.
As Ge Xinyue said, the division of labor between the Foreign Affairs Office and the Internal Affairs Office is different, and most of the contents in the files are what happened in Yanzhou.
But Lu Li soon discovered something strange.
Most of the records in these files only stop in the past few days, and the most distant ones can be traced back to a month ago.
"Why is the content in the file so outdated?"
Lu Li frowned, feeling that Ge Xinyue would not make such a mistake.
News like this is timely.
A lot of news from a few days ago may not be accurate now, let alone information from a month ago.
Hearing this, Ge Xinyue said calmly: "The files of the Foreign Affairs Office are all handled by the Tianbu. What you see now is the latest batch compiled by the Tianbu."
"Something happened to Tianbu?"
Lu Li was keenly aware that there was something in Ge Xinyue's words.
"It may not be something serious, but Tianbu's current intelligence system has stopped functioning."
Ge Xinyue said: "I will send people to investigate this matter, so you don't have to worry about it for now."
"Okay." Lu Li nodded. It was really not convenient for him to intervene in the Tianbu.
Moreover, Song Bocheng is still free now. With him here, there may not be any big things happening in Tianbu. Even if something big happens, he will find a way to solve it.
After all, he is also one of the six envoys of the Tianbu. If he didn't have some skills, he wouldn't be able to sit in this position today.
"correct."
While Lu Li was sorting out the files, Ge Xinyue suddenly pretended to be casual and said, "The palace is short of money recently, can you think of some ways?"
"Lack of money?"
Lu Li raised his head and asked, "Is the palace already so poor?"
Although he knew that the finances of Prince Yan's Mansion were somewhat stretched, Ge Xinyue's ability was enough for her to say the word "lack of money", which proved that Prince Yan's Mansion really had no money.
Originally, Lu Li had copied Biling's treasure trove and planned to divide some of it to enrich the palace's finances, but he didn't expect that Ge Xinyue actually spoke up in advance.
"The finances of the palace are not good. You and Mo Shenfeng destroyed the state palace again this time, disturbing many people. If you want to appease the people and repair the palace, it will cost a lot of money, and the two palaces of the palace For a general who is seriously injured, their subsequent treatment will also require a lot of money."
"Do you think Prince Yan's Mansion is very rich?"
Ge Xinyue thought that Lu Li was questioning her ability, so she suddenly became embarrassed and her tone was no longer calm, but urgent and fast.
Lu Li was confused by what she said.
But if you think about it carefully, what she said makes sense.
The palace in the state capital can be said to be the face of Yanzhou. Now that the palace has been destroyed and turned into a ruin, it cannot be justified without spending money to repair it.
In addition, the people in the state capital were disturbed by last night's fighting, and it would also cost money to appease the people.
The most important thing is that the two master generals of Prince Yan's Mansion really fought for their lives. Even if one of them can save his life, it is unknown whether he can continue to enter the country in the future. The cost of treatment for these two people is A big expense.
Lu Li calculated it in his mind and knew how much money he had spent last night.
"There's nothing we can do about it." Seeing his hesitation, Ge Xinyue thought it was because he didn't want to contribute, so she said coldly, turned around and left.
"Hey, Sister Ge, wait a minute." Lu Li reacted and quickly stopped her, got up and chased after her.
Ge Xinyue stopped and turned around. Just when she was about to speak, she saw Lu Li wave his hand and a black shadow flew out of the sleeves of his robe.
boom!
Then a big box fell in front of Ge Xinyue.
Ge Xinyue frowned and looked at the box and asked, "What do you mean?"
Lu Li waved his hand and opened the box. The jade coins filled with jade coins emitted a light that was not dazzling. However, when the light fell on Ge Xinyue's eyes, it was particularly dazzling, and she couldn't help but squint. He narrowed his eyes and looked shocked.
Lu Li smiled and said, "I thought it was some big deal, just a lack of money. Is this box enough?"
This large box of jade coins must be worth at least tens of millions when converted into Holy Kingdom banknotes.
Seeing that Ge Xinyue didn't reply, Lu Li shook his sleeves again and threw out six boxes. Each box was filled with jade coins.
"This... these jade coins..."
Although Ge Xinyue's eyes were not shining yet, she could no longer maintain her cold temperament.
"If you ask me, we should go and ransack the homes. Those wealthy families are really richer than the last. The Bi family in Bazhou is not a particularly powerful family, but the grand master Bi Ling can actually build a treasure house to hide his Family property. A few boxes of jade coins are just part of his property. This guy has also collected many treasures of heaven and earth, and panacea. If they are all realized, I estimate that they will be worth at least 600 million yuan. "
While explaining the origin of these jade coins, Lu Li lamented that the wealthy families were really rich.
Of course, as one of the nine palaces of the Holy Kingdom, Prince Yan's palace is actually the only one to be in such a miserable state.
The other eight princes hardly ever worried about money. Only a person like Mu Hongxiu, who is not good at management and has no concept of external things such as money, can turn such a powerful force into this.
It can be said that without Ge Xinyue's help, Prince Yan's Mansion would not have been able to survive today and would have collapsed long ago.
But Ge Xinyue had never seen so many jade coins at one time. She quickly realized her gaffe, restrained her expression, and said solemnly: "You robbed a grandmaster of his fortune?"
"Strictly speaking, he should be a master from a famous family."
Lu Li smiled and said: "No matter how powerful an ordinary grandmaster is, it is impossible for him to accumulate so much wealth. With a family like Bi Ling's, I guess there must be a lot of greed for the interests of the Bi family. If I hadn't been caught this time Well, with his caution, he should be able to expand his family fortune by three points."
Hearing this, Ge Xinyue could only smile bitterly.
These jade coins in front of me can indeed solve the urgent needs of Prince Yan's Mansion.
No, to be more precise, with these boxes of jade money, Prince Yan's Mansion would not only be able to solve its urgent needs, but would even be able to make a lot of money.
Jade coins are inherently more valuable coins and are commonly used throughout ancient times.
No matter how much ordinary money you have, if you take it to other places, others may not recognize it. So strictly speaking, the value of these jade coins, converted into Tiantian Holy Kingdom currency, can at least be worth a few percent premium.
"Anyway, we don't need to worry about money now."
Lu Li laughed when he saw Ge Xinyue looking at the jade coins in deep thought, "If Sister Ge feels it's not enough, selling some natural materials and earthly treasures can solve the problem."
"Enough is enough."
Ge Xinyue asked repeatedly: "Where can we use so many?"
She looked at the seven large boxes of jade coins, and a confused expression appeared on her face. She first stretched out a hand, thought about it, then changed it to three fingers, and finally, after a moment of confusion, changed it to four fingers. , whispered: "Four boxes... The current situation of Prince Yan's Mansion, only four boxes of jade money is enough."
"Sister Ge, what are you doing?"
Lu Li pretended not to understand, "Now that I have taken out these boxes of jade money, I will hand them all over to you."
After saying that, Lu Li said with a smile: "Now the palace is full of waste, and if my sister has more money, it will be easier for her to do things."
