It turned out that he teased her for a long time to make her relax her vigilance and then steal her small vault? Fortunately, she was smart and confused first! If her box was gone, she would have to fight with her!

Meijing hugged the makeup box hard, gritted her teeth, buried it deeper into the cabinet, piled up clothes, and locked the cabinet doors together.

Go out with confidence, the three women were still sitting in the room waiting for her.

"What did the princess do in such a hurry?" Wen Erya asked with a smile.

Meijing said seriously: "Check for any loss of property."

"Didn't the princess say there was no movement here last night? What are you afraid of losing property?" Yu looked up and down at her, pursed her lips and said, "Isn't it because I was using words to make excuses?"

"You don't have to think too much." Meijing smiled and said, "I am just used to being careful, after all, money is hard to come by."

"When it comes to money," Yu Mengshuang frowned: "I haven't paid off the extra five taels of silver this month."

Ning Chun'er looked at Shen Meijing: "My money has not been sent, and some rare ink is almost used up."

Meijing patted her head and said with a smile: "So I haven't sent this yet. Jinyi, you went to the account to collect it, and I just gave it to you."

"Yes." Jinyi went to the collar of her order.

Wen Erya said: "In the past, he was always so busy that he only had an account book. Now that the princess takes over, I really have a rare time to take a break. I just happened to buy two pianos."

Shen Meijing couldn't help but feel pain for Song Liangchen. Why are these women so good at spending money?

"It's just reimbursement after buying it."

"Okay." Wen Erya nodded and couldn't help but remind: "The monthly fee limit in the mansion is 500 taels. The princess will take charge of the account for the first time, so don't go past the price."

Is five hundred taels the upper limit? Meijing frowned. The purchase and expenditure in the past two days seemed to be more than thirty taels. What she was very curious about now is how Wen Erya used the 200 taels a month?

After all the people who were paying their respects left, Shen Meijing searched the account book and looked carefully.

She can understand this when buying a kitchen, she has to spend five taels of silver a day. After all, there are many people in the house. Although she vaguely feels it is expensive, there is nothing to say. She has a lot of food. However, the clothes and jewelry that are imported from each house and courtyard can actually exceed twenty taels at a time! In addition to the two five taels of silver I paid today and the piano that Wen Erya wants to buy, it is estimated that the expenses are dozens of taels of silver.

If this continues to reach the end of the month, the expenses will definitely be more than 500 taels. Song Liangchen will definitely think that she embezzled the silver! God is so good that she can't get more than half a penny!

Yes, it’s not that I didn’t take more, but that I couldn’t take more!

Holding the account book, Meijing learned from her mistakes, and finally stood up and said, "Yushi, let's go out of the house and have a look!"

"What do you want to see by the master?" Yu Esophagus said: "You have to arrange a ceremonial guard when you go out."

"No need to be that trouble." Meijing waved her hand and said, "Let's go and be a shopping servant, check the price of things everywhere, and just wear the maid's clothes and go out."

Yushi frowned: "Master, you don't need to do such a lowly thing."

"Anyway, I'm idle anyway, so it's beneficial or harmful to know more about it." Shen Meijing said: "It's better than being blinded by someone's eyes."

"Yes." Yushi nodded, paused, but turned around and went out to prepare.

If a person who manages money is not managed properly, he will become a pauper. Only those who know how to manage can take other people's wealth and make themselves richer!

Shen Meijing was wrapped in a flowery headscarf, half covering her face, and wearing a coarse cloth dress that was not unique to the prince's mansion. She finally took Jinyi out, while Yushi stayed to deal with the others.

"There are designated places for purchases in the mansion, and the orders are written on it." Jinyi said: "Generally, merchants who supply the Prince's Mansion will have a slightly cheaper price."

Meijing nodded and picked the nearest cloth shop: "I have been to this shop. Yesterday, Butler Song also entered eight pieces of auspicious cloud silk from here, which was written in the account book."

"Yes." Jinyi nodded: "This cloth shop has always been cheap and of good quality."

Is it cheap? She remembers that the account book says eight pieces of silk and eight taels of silver. One tael of silver and one piece of silk, where is it cheaper!

When he walked into this familiar cloth shop, the shopkeeper still looked polite: "What do you two want to order?"

Meijing pointed to the auspicious cloud silk on the shelves: "How much does that cost?"

The shopkeeper reached out and took off the silk and carefully placed it in front of them and said, "Five cents of silver, this is the first-time product. The patterns are good and the colors are bright, which is suitable for making new clothes for noble people."

Five cents of silver! Shen Meijing took a breath. A piece of brocade is only five cents, and eight pieces are only four taels. Who bought the silk? He can actually eat four taels of silver in one trip?!

If she had known such a good thing, why would she be the princess? Isn’t she much more money as a buyer?

Jinyi's face was a little solemn, and she stepped forward and said, "If the prince's mansion wants to buy it, the shopkeeper's may be cheaper?"

"Is the Prince's Mansion?" The shopkeeper was stunned and looked at them: "There were only ones from the Prince's Mansion who came to buy it yesterday. Eight pieces of silk, three taels and eight coins of silver, and it cannot be less. Our profit here is meager and we are not deceived."

Jinyi turned around and obviously saw that his master's eyes were deeper.

After leaving the cloth shop, Shen Meijing went straight to the pork shop and vegetable market, and finally went to the Shui Moxuan, which sold paper, pen and inkstone. After a trip, the two stood on the street. Jinyi heard his master say, "Jinyi, I was wrong. Is it still time to go back to be a purchasing maid?"

Jinyi shook her head laughed and cried: "This is the first time I know that there are so many ways to buy something. Many things in the house were contracted. Most of the merchants had some relationship with the masters in the backyard, so the prince kept turning a blind eye."

As a result, the price was not only not low, but all of them were much higher. The price of half a tael of silver was quoted for one tael of liang, and the dish that cost three cents was even ten cents. It was really stupid for the people in the prince's house and the money was too much! Meijing was so angry that she was so tickled. Although it was not her money, being cheated like a dig for her meat and couldn't bear it!

"Let's go to the piano shop again." Mei Jing walked forward angrily, and the loss was already unavailable, but she could not continue to be the sucker!

At the entrance of the alley, Song Liangye, who was half-opening, yawned, looked at the two people coming over outside, and smashed his mouth and said, "Catch the maid who showed her face, and leave the masked one to me."

"Yes." Several people next to him bowed and scattered, hiding around.

The two people walking on the street didn't notice the danger at all. Meijing was still walking while angrily saying, "As a dish that is so unpalatable, I even told me that I'm stupid, do you think I'm stupid?"

Jinyi couldn't help but smile and said, "Master, although bitter melon is bitter, summer is also a good way to clear heat..."
