Yuan Wense was gritting his teeth as he read the account book.

No wonder Grandma Gong, who is so strong and blessed, threw all the warehouse accounts at her like a bomb.

It turns out that Lao Shi is a poor man!!!

There are only more than one thousand taels of silver in the book!

The prince's monthly income is just some physical items related to food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the silver is an annual income, only a few hundred taels. Zhuangzi's shop also receives three to four thousand taels a year, and they can only be obtained during the Chinese New Year. It is only mid-August, so it is still early.

Very.

It stands to reason that the consumption power of one tael of silver at this time is not low. Rice and white flour cost eight to ten cents per catty. The current exchange rate for one tael of silver is 1,700 cents. It is said that some poor families only spend this much a year.

More money is enough!

But for top consumers like Lao Shi, there are very few of them.

There are so many brothers and sisters who have to celebrate their birthdays more than 20 times a year, and the last time they have to do it is one or two hundred taels of silver. For those of you who are relatively well-connected, why don't you have three or five hundred taels of silver?

Although there are birthdays and other celebrations in your own family, you can't give away gifts given by others at will. If someone finds out, it will be another problem.

Moreover, the childbirth competition among the princes has now begun. A child must be given gifts from the time of conception, including three dynasties, full moon, hundred days, days of the week, plus New Year's Day... It is impossible to survive without a few thousand taels.

That's all, what's more important is the longevity day of Kangxi's male god and the holy birthday of the Queen Mother. Which birthday can you live without thousands of taels of silver?

This is still a small birthday, and it will be even more serious when it comes to a full birthday!

There are also silver nuggets for giving rewards, most of which are beaten into the shape of peanuts, ingots, or wishful thinking, weighing four quarters, and a reward is a pair, and there is also an embroidered purse attached upside down.

The eunuch came to deliver a message, lead the way wherever he went, gave the master a gift, and was rewarded for adding an extra dish to the imperial kitchen.

Yuan Wense had nothing to do but wanted to go to the Queen Mother to improve her favorability. When she saw useful eunuchs and maids, she had to give them red envelopes. Even her own maids and nuns, the ones who came every once in a while were rewarded!

Sometimes when I go on a show, I will be rewarded with dozens or even hundreds of taels of silver for a day out. This is a common thing.

This is not asking for help, it is just daily expenses!

Think about it, if you really want to use this thousand taels of silver to buy things, it will be enough for everything.

Seeing that August is Brother Jiu’s birthday.

September also has my 19th brother’s birthday.

Thirteenth’s birthday is on October 1st, Old Ten’s own birthday is on October 11th, and Fourth Brother’s birthday is on October 30th.

In addition, Da Fujin is going to give birth to a baby in the next month or two, and it’s hard to say whether the one thousand yuan can last until October.

When this account book was brought up, it was disguised as asking her to pay for the dowry money!

No wonder the original owner was full of resentment when he got married. What kind of woman would supplement the man with dowry, and also have to support the man's one, two, three or four little wives and the sons and daughters born to them... It's no wonder that this mood can become brighter!

Fortunately, Yuan Wense was open-minded. As long as he didn't pay for the things in the space, it didn't matter if he gave these dowries to Lao Shi.

She can’t take it away anyway!

As long as the favor is treated decently and Lao Shi appreciates it, that's all.

Lao Shi entered the study room with a brisk smile: "What are you doing at home today? If you are bored, go and play with Sister-in-law Eight and Sister-in-law Nine. Anyway, we live close by."

Yuan Wense closed the account book with a slight smile on his face: "No, I will learn to write some words. I won't be able to talk to my sisters-in-law in the future. I seem to be illiterate! It's embarrassing for me!" (
