Chapter 2018: Chapter 2015: Bathhouse

Sending it over may offend some people.

With Minister Qi’s deep personality, he wouldn’t show it on his face, but he would definitely bear a grudge against Chu Heng.

Chu Heng squinted his eyes: "Of course, keeping such things would be detrimental to us."

Lu Chuan pondered and nodded.

He first escorted Chu Heng to the Ministry of War Office, then went off to attend to his own matters.

Meanwhile.

Steward Qi, with a nervous heart, hurried the carriage back to the mansion.

He rushed to the study in the front yard to report the news to Minister Qi.

Minister Qi was practicing calligraphy.

Seeing Steward Qi, he didn’t have any extra reaction; instead, he was calm and at ease, contemplating how to continue ’interacting’ with Chu Heng. It would be even better if he could take the opportunity to pull the other party into his own camp in the future.

"What’s the matter? In such a hurry." Minister Qi reprimanded in a low voice.

Steward Qi wiped the sweat off his forehead, feeling uneasy, and nervously recounted Chu Heng’s previous reactions.

Originally in a good mood, Minister Qi’s face turned ashen after hearing it.

"Ungrateful!" Minister Qi angrily smashed an inkstone.

The expensive inkstone shattered into two with a bang.

Steward Qi, also filled with righteous indignation, said, "Sir, regarding Lord Chu over there...?"

"Hm, since he is unwilling to cooperate with us, then let’s find some trouble for him." Minister Qi had some ideas of venting his anger.

Hearing this, although Steward Qi didn’t agree in his heart, he wouldn’t foolishly say it out loud. He only asked, "Sir, should we cause trouble for Madam Chu or for Lord Chu?"

"Then let’s cause trouble for the female family members of the Chu family." Minister Qi was troubled by recent frustrations, and after being rejected by Chu Heng, his mood worsened.

Since Chu Heng didn’t care about the assassins sent by the Deng Family,

it seems it’s fake that he cares about his own family.

Although he was a bit disappointed, he didn’t mind finding trouble for Ye Muyu to vent his anger. After all, Ye Muyu is just a woman of the inner house, a countrywoman at that, with no real abilities, so causing trouble would be easy.

"Go to her shop and make some trouble, take back the business." Minister Qi squinted his eyes, very satisfied with this multitasking benefit.

Chu family.

Ye Muyu was not yet aware that someone wanted to cause her trouble.

She had just called back the stewards from various shops in the capital to audit the accounts.

Even though there were quite a few account books, her memory was good now; although not photographic, she could still read through them quickly.

She finished reviewing all the shop accounts in one morning and collected a considerable sum back.

Having seen the accounts and noting the increased income, she naturally was willing to distribute welfare to those working below.

So, Ye Muyu waved her hand generously, giving a bonus to those who worked for six or seven taels a month, after all, the weather was hot, and people easily got irritable. Raising wages could also motivate everyone a bit.

A few stewards went into the mansion worried and left happily.

It could be described as extremely bustling.

With silver in hand, Ye Muyu was planning to take this silver out to continue making money as capital.

Previously she mentioned to Chu Heng about opening a bathhouse.

This idea had just emerged.

But now, with the capital, she thought it over carefully and felt that opening a bathhouse was indeed a good idea.

The weather in the capital was also very hot, in winter people bathed less, and even in summer, bathing was not frequent.

The reason is simple.

Prices in the capital were high, even firewood was expensive.

Naturally, commoners were not keen on bathing, which was also due to the poor economic development of this world.

However, if she opened a bathhouse, it could actually be profitable.
