Chapter 2700: Chapter 2700: Are There Other Ways to Make Money?
Are you going to catch fish at the Moonlight Lotus embankment? Just these few little kids, don’t let the fish catch you instead!
“If you want to be caught by the fish, then go ahead. Once you’re hauled out of the water, don’t claim to be the sons of your father and me. We can’t afford to lose face like that.”
She said.
The children: “…”
It wasn’t them saying it, it was Nuonuo. They hadn’t thought of it like that.
Honestly, given the size of these little ones, going to catch fish is something only Nuonuo could think of. They really might end up being caught by the fish, just as their mother said.
“Mother, we’ll keep an eye on Nuonuo and won’t let him be caught by the fish.”
“Yes, that’s right, Mother. We’ll just pick lotus flowers and leaves, we won’t catch fish. The fish at the Moonlight Lotus embankment aren’t tasty.”
“Nuonuo, if you want to eat fish, let’s buy some. Bought fish tastes better.”
The three children simultaneously advised the little baby, not wanting to actually be caught by the fish. Added together, they probably don’t outweigh the fishing net!
“Alright, then remember to look after Nuonuo.”
An Jiuyue smiled and gently pinched An Yilu’s cheek as she spoke.
These children haven’t grown up yet, it’s normal for them to enjoy playing. She’ll have a Paper Person keep an eye on them.
And now that it’s summer, even if they fall into the water it won’t be a big deal, they won’t freeze. It’ll just serve as a lesson for them, which is not a bad thing.
“When will big brother act?” she asked Qian Jiyun.
“It’s already started.”
Qian Jiyun said. Those related to the Retired Emperor in the capital are being purged, and he’s having people monitor them.
“There are quite a few people connected to the Retired Emperor, even a few assassin organizations in the populace.”
“Tsk.”
An Jiuyue clicked her tongue lightly.
No wonder the Retired Emperor didn’t get upset when an assassin organization was dismantled, he just got a bit miffed. Turns out he doesn’t care.
“Where does he get so much money to cultivate forces? Could he have other channels for earning money?” she asked.
“Yes.”
Qian Jiyun replied.
“But from now on, they’ll be under my brother’s control.”
The Retired Emperor holds quite a lot of resources. After this action, the national treasury will be full, and big brother can even have a small private cache, which is quite nice.
“Mm, plus it’ll be even more once we extort money from the major clans.”
An Jiuyue thought that they should extort some funds quickly. If they wait until the Emperor clears out all of the Retired Emperor’s people, the capital will become very tense, making it hard to act.
Moreover, if the national treasury is full, they won’t have an excuse to ask those keen-eyed and sharp-eared people to donate money, right?
“Three days later, just right,” Qian Jiyun said.
He glanced outside the door, noting the time wasn’t early, and looked at An Jiuyue again.
“The steward will take care of this matter, don’t worry about it. It’s now after noon, what would you like to eat? I’ll make it for you.”
“Whatever you make is the best.”/p>
An Jiuyue smiled at him, thinking that if her husband cooked for her and she still complained, wouldn’t that make her unreasonable?
“Alright, you stay with the kids, I’ll go cook.”
Qian Jiyun stood up and went out the door. Even though he’d returned to the manor, he was still in the habit of cooking meals for An Jiuyue. Of course, he also wanted the recently reunited little boy An Yilu to taste his father’s culinary skills.
“Brother, I’ll go with you.”
An Jiuyue also stood up, and after saying a word to An Jiuyue, she followed her big brother out.
