Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess Chapter 429 - Plan for Accumulating Wealth

Chapter 429 Plan for Accumulating Wealth

“Dream is what you would most like to do in your life.”
Lin Mengya tilted her head and looked at Baishao seriously.
For the first time, Baishao thought about the previous nineteen years of her life from the point of view of hers instead of anyone else’s.
“Master, I want to… say it, but don’t you laugh at me. Actually I want to be rich. If I weren’t a girl, I want to be the richest person in our country!”
Looking at Baishao’s expectant face, Lin Mengya felt it hard to laugh.
Perhaps there was a sad story behind every dream.
In her mind, there suddenly came what Baishao said when she was wronged by the maids of Art Courtyard.
Beauty was not a girl’s fault. However, she had to be criticized by many people because of this fabricated charge.
It was an unfair thing for women.
” Master, I’m just kidding. Don’t laugh at me.”
Returning to reality from her sweet dream in an instant, Baishao suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
She felt like the secret she would most like to hide was discovered by someone.
Nevertheless, since it was discovered by Lin Mengya, it made her feel less embarrassed.
“No, I won’t. I think you are quite ambitious. I used to think that I could be accountable to you as long as I provide you with generous dowries and find a good man for you. Now it seems to be a waste of your talents. No matter what you want to do, just do it with confidence and boldness. The prince and I will be your backing.”
Seeing Lin Mengya’s serious face, Baishao hurriedly explained.
“How can this work? I just want to be a good maid and serve masters well. Regarding doing business, it’s beyond my capability.”
Baishao began to strongly deny herself before starting.
Not to mention her, businesswomen were extremely rare around the entire Jin State.
The most distinguished women just managed their husbands’ properties. If they wanted to expose themselves in doing business, it would probably not work.
What was more, she was just the daughter from a civilian family. How could do it?
“How do you know if you don’t have a try? Look at me. Every princess in the Capital City is admiring the beauty of flowers and grass now. Have you seen any princess going to such a distant place?”
Baishao still had some concerns, but Lin Mengya took her little hand and persuaded her patiently.
“Actually I’m not going to let you be a merchant who travels around. Instead, I intend to let you manage an auction house for me.”
In desperation, Lin Mengya had to deceive her that she did that for her master.
As expected, when it came to the affairs of her master, Baishao immediately showed a little interest in her eyes.
“I have a friend who has collected a lot of medicinal herbs and treasures. Moreover, she also knows plenty of people got good stuff that has a price but no sales. Thus, I want to open an auction house. First, I can auction some good stuff for my friend. Secondly, if someone else comes to sell something, we can earn some commission. In this way, you don’t have to leave me and expose yourself in public. Someone else can do everything on behalf of you. What do you think of it?”
The idea of opening an auction house had lingering in Lin Mengya’s mind for a long time.
As Sanjue Hall’s business was booming, she had collected a lot of good stuff during this period.
Of course, those who could come to exchange information could not only provide money.
In the eyes of the members of the martial arts circle, money was not the first important thing.
Those kinds of stuff like rare books of martial arts and rare plants and minerals were more precious in the eyes of those members of the martial arts circle.
In the Sanjue Hall, the place, where these kinds of stuff were stored, had been meticulously designed by Lin Mengya. Nevertheless, in addition to silver as hard currency in circulation, there were only a small amount of gold, silver and jewelry which became basic funds after being sold.
But in this way, these kinds of stuff would be spoiled.
It was better to open an auction house and make these kinds of stuff more valuable.
At the same time, it could give a hint to those rich people.
In the Sanjue Hall, there was nothing that they couldn’t get. In this way, it also gave a good publicity to the Sanjue Hall.
With enough money, her subordinates could do a better job, right?
Although Yunzhu was resourceful, it still needed some talents to manage an auction house.
She had long discovered that Baishao was particularly skilled in mental arithmetic. Baishao knew about the accounts of Prince Yu’s Mansion even better than the record on the account book.
It would be silly for her not to use such an available talent.
Baishao looked at Lin Mengya in a daze and kept thinking about the words of her master.
If that were the case, maybe she could give it a try.
“Don’t turn me down immediately. I can probably start to handle it after returning to the Capital City. The most important thing is that we can’t let the prince find out about it.”
The two girls smiled into each other’s eyes. Their Liuxin Courtyard was only rich in secrets.
Beside the fire outside the door, the man they tried to hide the secret from was sitting solemnly with his back to them.
In the fire, the crackling of the burning firewood broke the silent night.
In the tent behind him, his princess should have fallen asleep.
It seemed to be the first time that he had guarded someone alone outside the tent.
Born in the emperor’s family, he had considered women nothing more than accessories to him.
Even if he would marry a princess in the future, he just did that for carrying on the family line and placing embroidery upon silk.
Unexpectedly, the most distinguished princess around the world just fell into his mansion.
He remembered that when he first met her, he didn’t want to marry her.
In the twinkling of an eye, it had been almost a year. Thinking of it, he always had various feelings.
However, it only excluded the word tired.
Not far away, Qiu Yu also came out of a tent.
Unlike Lin Mengya and other two girls, he and Long Tianyu had to stay in public tents.
Although six people shared a tent, one would be considered a supernatural being if he could fall asleep under the dual attack of snore and foot odor.
In desperation, he had to come to sit by the fire and pass the time.
“I’ll take it over from you. Go to sleep.”
Qiu Yu sat beside Long Tianyu and reached out to move the fire to and fro.
But Long Tianyu stared at him fixedly, seeming to be examining him.
“Why are you staring at me like this? I won’t hurt her. You can rest assured.”
Qiu Yu looked careless and casual, but Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu both vaguely guessed that he was extraordinary.
Besides, along the way, Long Tianyu sensed that this guy held a malicious intention for Lin Mengya.
He was not being narrow-minded, but the fact that Lin Mengya chose to trust Qiu Yu still left him quite an unpleasant memory.
“I don’t care who you are. If you dare to plot against her, I will definitely kill you.”
Qiu Yu stopped moving his hand and turned his face to stare at Long Tianyu.
The feigned relaxed smile vanished on the handsome face of Qiu Yu, who was also unwilling to show weakness. He fixedly stared at Long Tianyu. Their gaze collided with each other, and no one was willing to give in first.
“Don’t describe yourself as such a noble man. You also want to get something else from the marriage with her, don’t you? Yes, I admit that I get close to Lin Mengya with my own purpose. But don’t think she will be used by you easily.”
The two men threatened each other like playing charades, but they knew clearly that both of them had their own purposes.
Long Tianyu just stared at Qiu Yu coldly, but felt his heart suddenly trembled.
“You shouldn’t interfere in the affairs between her and me. If you dare to say more about it, no matter who you are, I will make you pay for it.”
Long Tianyu stood up and didn’t want to talk nonsense with this guy.
Nevertheless, after gazing at the door of the tent, where Lin Mengya was, for a moment, he walked over softly and closed the door of the tent tightly.
Lin Mengya would never find out anything he intended to hide from her.
But why a trace of uneasiness kept lingering in his heart?
“Brother Yuan, it’s been late. Haven’t you slept yet?”
Just as he passed by the tents where the females stayed, he was stopped by Sumei’s soft voice.
In the moonlight, Sumei’s small face was as clean as water. She was only dressed in a single layer of clothes, but looked delicate and touching.
However, after glancing at her lightly, Long Tianyu bypassed her and strode toward his tent.
“Brother Yuan, brother Yuan, I have something to tell you!”
Sumei didn’t expect that this Yuan Mei was so ruthless, and could only follow him and called him a few times.
Long Tianyu really wanted to ignore this girl, but the camping ground was not vast. Several other men, who were keeping watch at night, all smiled vaguely at him.
He really hated this feeling like being wronged.
Turning around, Long Tianyu didn’t talk or laugh, and just looked at her blankly.
“Actually it’s about your younger sister.”
She stressed the word sister. If she spoke louder, it would definitely be heard by others.
Lin Mengya once said that she did not want her identity to be discerned. Long Tianyu glared at Sumei and whispered.
“You had better keep your mouth shut!”
After Sumei was warned, her watery eyes were suddenly filled with tears.
Her panic-stricken face made her look as pure and pitiful as a deer.
But in Long Tianyu’s eyes, this kind of affected girls were the most detestable.
He frowned slightly. Although he never beat women, there was no distinction between men and women when it came to killing.
“I’m sorry. I made a slip of the tongue. Actually I just want to tell you that she might have done something wrong. in Huichun House. Don’t get me wrong. I don’t mean anything, but just think it might be a little inappropriate for an innocent girl to do that.”
