811. Precious Treasures
"This time period is not the period of government affairs, and they are afraid of disturbing Your Majesty!" Wei Dexian lowered his head and said to Qi Xiaobai.
Qi Xiaobai stipulated that except for particularly important things, after the cabinet meeting time, everything was said the next day.
And what Wei Dexian said to Qi Xiaobai just now was not an urgent and important matter, but the content of the parliament at tomorrow's court meeting, if he found Qi Xiaobai today, it would obviously make Qi Xiaobai unhappy.
The ministers of the court can only quarrel with Qi Xiaobai during the cabinet meeting, and after the cabinet meeting, everyone will return to their own identities, facing Qi Xiaobai, you are just a courtier, you have to be an example of a courtier.
"However, Your Majesty, Lord Qi Jie, tomorrow will be at Yingqiu, the battle of Han, Qi Jie's first merit, how should Your Majesty reward him?"
"Meng Weijun, Qi Jie is my brother, how can he be a king, the north is barren, give him more money, others in the province say that I am stingy with him!" Qi Xiaobai looked at Wei Dexian and said.
A long time ago, Qi Xiaobai had already announced that he would seal Qi Jie as the king of Yan, but it was not explicitly disclosed, and it was given in the form of an official document.
"However, he should be here for my sister Qi Yan's birthday, my sister's birthday is coming, anyway, you, the head of housekeeping, how are you preparing?" Qi Xiaobai looked at Wei Dexian and asked.
"Your Majesty, the day after tomorrow is Princess Qi Yan's birthday, of course the minister is ready, and luxury is guaranteed!" Wei Dexian looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.
"You don't have to worry about money, over the years, I've been a little bit of money!" Qi Xiaobai looked at Wei Dexian and said.
Qi is rich, but this does not mean that Qi Xiaobai is rich, Qi's treasury is very sufficient, but Qi Xiaobai's money in the treasury cannot be embezzled, and Qi Xiaobai can use it in theory, but Qi Xiaobai knows that once the money in the treasury is used, there will be a fork in the crisis.
The treasury of Qi is sufficient, and Qi Xiaobai also issued a decree that Qi Xiaobai's descendants and Qi Xiaobai's family members are not allowed to touch the treasury of Qi.
And the expenses of the palace of Qi used to be in the treasury of Qi State, and some money was taken out every year, but now Qi Xiaobai does not do it, the treasury is the treasury, and his own money is his own money.
Qi Xiaobai set up an agency dedicated to managing his own money, and the manager of this institution was his own woman.
Qi Xiaobai sold something and got a sum of money, although he took this money and invested in the business of Qi merchants, which also made Qi Xiaobai's money profitable.
Therefore, the economy of the clan of the Qi State is completely separated from the treasury, although among the countries, the money of the clan is separated from the treasury, but they often or habitually embezzle the treasury.
And Qi Xiaobai is rich now, and he doesn't have to embezzle the treasury at all, of course, this is also thanks to the merchants of Qi State, even if Qi Xiaobai is no longer a monarch, if he goes out, he is also a generation of rich businessmen.
In the Qi United Chamber of Commerce, Qi Xiaobai also carries the name of an honorary president, because Qi Xiaobai is the identity of the monarch, he is a shareholder in business, basically a green light all the way, in Qi country, there is Qi country to take care of, in Qi abroad, there are these Qi country businessmen to take care of, so Qi Xiaobai has not had a major problem since he started business.
Even if there is no small problem, even if it appears, there will be a special person or someone else to solve it for him.
"Your Majesty, the minister has always understood what you mean, this birthday banquet should be luxurious, and the minister estimated that it needs 10 million silver!" Wei Dexian looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.
Qi Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, and then wanted to say that it was too expensive, but when he thought of the promise he had made to his sister before, to hold a luxurious banquet, Qi Xiaobai took a deep breath: "It's just 10 million silver, small money!" "Okay
Wei Dexian nodded, and didn't say anything, he knew that Qi Xiaobai's own treasury had a lot of money, although it couldn't be compared with the treasury of Qi State, but compared with the richest man in Qi State, it was also three times that of the richest man in Qi State.
Ten million silver is nothing to Qi Xiaobai, but Qi Xiaobai is dripping blood in his heart.
Although he is very rich, the silver spent in vain is not falling from the sky.
"Money is not a problem, it must be luxurious, it must be spectacular, if it is not done well, I will be guilty!" Qi Xiaobai looked at Wei Dexian and said.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, if it doesn't do well, the minister is willing to accept the punishment!" Wei Dexian looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.
"Okay, I'm going to see the excerpts, you go down first!" Qi Xiaobai said to Wei Dexian.
Wei Dexian nodded and left, Qi Xiaobai began to look at the fold alone, Wei Dexian came to Qi Xiaobai, in fact, he came to deliver information, but every time Wei Dexian came to deliver information, Qi Xiaobai would talk to Wei Dexian a lot.
After all, Wei Dexian is Qi Xiaobai's most trusted person, and he is also the only person Qi Xiaobai thinks can be his friend.
And in a palace within the Qi Palace.
A beautiful woman was fiddling with a glittering ring, while an elderly maid knelt on the ground: "Old slave, damn it!" ”
The beautiful woman is Qi Yan, Qi Yan is in a good mood today, after all, it will be his birthday banquet in a few days, and I heard that Qi Xiaobai has spent a lot of money to create a very luxurious birthday banquet for himself, and Qi Jiu will also come.
When the time comes, how happy is it for the family to get together? Thinking of this, Qi Yan's heart was filled with a sense of happiness.
She saved a little savings of her own and wanted to give some gifts to her two younger brothers, although her younger brothers, one was the emperor and the other was sitting in the north, although he was not a king, but he already had the power of a king, and he lacked nothing at all.
But as an older sister, why do you have to give some small gifts to your two younger brothers? It's a kind of heart.
So she took out her savings and let her slaves go to Yingqiu City, wander around, and buy some nice gifts.
The gift should be hearty, this is Qi Yan's request, the focus of her gift is for Qi Jie, this is mainly because Qi Jiu can't come to Yingqiu for a long time, he wants to give his younger brother something, let him see, there is a feeling of home.
Of course, she prepared something for Qi Xiaobai, saying that it was for Qi Xiaobai, but it was actually for Qi Xiaobai's three sons.
This aunt hasn't given her three nephews some good things yet, she wants to use this birthday banquet to give her three nephews something, of course, to express her heart.
She gave the slave in front of her 50,000 silver, which was her savings for a long time, and there was no problem in preparing four decent gifts.
After all, Qi Jie and Qi Xiaobai don't lack anything, the focus is on the mind, novelty, but her slave maid, with the money, bought a few broken jades, and fooled her into saying that it was a precious treasure.
