This was the first time since the Crown Prince was born that he felt the embarrassment of money.
He was born with a better brain than ordinary people.
He also had many private businesses and earned a lot of money.
The private warehouse was filled with gold, silver, and jewelry, and the money on the books was enough to spend a lifetime.
One must know that the current Prince’s salary was 10000 taels, the junwang’s was 5000 taels, the Duke’s was 2500 taels, and the Duke’s was only 1000 taels. Back then, the Jiang family, which was at its peak, only had a salary of a few hundred taels.
Most of them received the money privately and relied on the agricultural industry.
As the Crown Prince, his annual salary was only ten thousand taels of silver. However, Emperor and Empress bestowed countless things in a year, including rare treasures that were usually sent by their servants. They didn’t need to be bought.
He also had his own property. As the noble Crown Prince, he naturally never lacked money to spend. But raising children ..
Ah, PEI.
For the first time, he felt the embarrassment of having to raise his sister. And, a deep pressure.
Raising a child actually burned so much money?
He had spent over ten thousand taels for three days.
Every day, the queue in front of the eastern Palace never stopped. In the past, people would have to take a detour when they saw the eastern Palace, but now, it was like they had seen the God of Fortune.
He had to stuff his wallet full when he went out for a lantern show.
Clearly, as long as he was not satisfied and frowned, with that girl’s intelligence and temperament, she would know that he was not happy.
He would definitely not be able to spend a single cent.
But he just couldn’t bear it.
When he saw how happy she was, he wished he could pass the key to the vault to her.
Lu huaijiang felt a chill down his spine.
That was a wife’s capital.
She hurriedly went out and closed the door with a bang. It was as if he would have taken out the key to the vault if he had been a step slower.
When he reached the door, Lulu had already changed and was waiting for him with a happy face.
He was the one who had bought the clothes and picked out the jewelry himself.
It was indeed a money-burning experience.
The clothes she was wearing were from the night Lulu had come to the eastern Palace. He had hired the most outstanding shop in the capital to get them measured overnight.
Whenever Tianyi Pavilion released new designs, the young ladies of the capital’s aristocratic families would fight over them. The price was high, but each item was unique.
Each item cost more than a hundred taels.
As for the common people of the capital, they did not even spend two taels of silver a month. He couldn’t even save ten taels a year.
He had never raised a sister before, so he had no experience.
He didn’t prepare spring, summer, autumn, and winter, for fear that it would be out of date when the season came.
He didn’t know how many clothes the little girl had to wear in a month. She only knew that if other people were dressed cute, she couldn’t be lacking in her own.
Anyway, he just didn’t feel comfortable when he saw that someone else was better than him.
Hence, he had the heavenly clothing Pavilion prepare ten sets every month.
Each set cost 200 taels of silver, so one set of moonlight clothes cost 2000 taels of silver.
The jewelry and accessories were all from the opened Treasury. The dongzhu and naizhu that were given by others were all picked up and used. If he couldn’t use it, he would keep it for later.
Even so, Lu huaijiang felt a deep sense of pressure.
“Lulu, are you very happy shopping?” Lu huaijiang touched the money bag on his waist.
How did those people in the court raise so many sisters? Bengong can’t afford to raise this one.
Lulu’s eyes lit up as he nodded.
At this moment, she had two small round buns on her head, surrounded by a circle of pearl flowers. It was so simple, but under the moonlight, the ring of pearl flowers glowed. Every single one of them was a night-luminescent Pearl! It looked smart and .
Burning money.
There was only an ancient jade pendant hanging on her waist. The tassels hanging on the Jade pendant were flowing with brilliance, and one could tell at a glance that it was not cheap.
Lu huaijiang pulled Lulu with one hand and the money bag with the other.
He was going to squander again..
