"What is Lin Yue job in your business?" Jin Yue is asking out of curiosity.
"Ah… He is solemnly pouring his money into the business. He can\'t find customer because of his sharp tongue as military man, and he can\'t cook or serving customer. Ah do not worry about him, I will take the silver and gold myself," Ni Qing is telling everyone on the table.
"Are you taking the money in the general Lin Yue house as you wish?" Zhao Yu is asking her with amusement about the revelation of the empress position in the general Lin house.
"I know exactly his amount of wealth. I also know about the whole Lin family wealth," Ni Qing is drinking her tea after telling Zhao Yu the real condition of their household.
"How can? You are not their part of family. What happen if someone take the money from the Lin Family?" Zhao Yu is kept asking her about her position in the Lin family.
"no one dare to infiltrate the Lin Family. I am helping uncle to take care of their household account and daily operation. Ah Yue is too busy in the barrack, and he is recuperating. Uncle is busy guarding the west border with father. They are not going to come back to the capital as they are enjoying their retirement in the border," Ni Qing is telling Zhao Yu about her position in the Lin Family.
"It means your position is their daughter-in-law as you are already taking care of their mansion," Zhao Yu is trying to find out the whole situation.
"I am ex-daughter in-law. But I still hold a strong foot hold in their mansion. The benefit is I can use the money as I needed it," Ni Qing is chuckled to tell her position in the Lin Household.
"I can pay for all your start up cost. Is your husband not capable to pay for all your business?" Jin Yu is making a complain about his wife position in the Lin family.
"How can you pay for all my business? What should you explain to the ministry in the court for the money? You are really petty sometimes," Ni Qing is holding her husband hand and appeasing him.
"I do have some private funds save from my salary. How much do you need?" Jin Yu is telling her without even think about the consequences.
"I really do not know at this stage. I need to buy two store front and the start up capital cost. I probably need two case of gold ingots for my plan and another case just in case," Ni Qing is making a quick rough calculation inside her head.
"Done. Wang, ask the finance minister to open my safe and take out three case of gold ingots to use for the empress project," The emperor is instructing his loyal eunuch regarding the whole money situation.
"You still need to go through the finance minister, and it will be talk withing the whole ministry that the emperor taking out his personal saving for the empress business in the capital during economic turbulation.
"What do you mean?" Jin Yu did not accept the whole rejection from his wife.
"I mean that this whole project is a secret to help the economic to be normal and you want to open wide telling everyone about my plan. Do you understand about it?" Ni Qing is blatantly attacking Jin Yu for his idea to get the fund from the finance ministry.
"I am sorry, but I do not want you to use someone else money. You are the empress and my only wife," Jin Yu is telling her about the whole objection of her idea of money source.
"this is not about using someone else money. I always use his money until now and you never raise any objection. Why should I come clean and let you know, and you are complaining about it now?" Ni Qing is telling him about her using Lin Yue money.
"I do not know about your position in the Lin family and your access to their wealth. If I know earlier than I will not allow you to do something like that. forget it and I will source the fund for you," Jin Yu still did not accept defeat from his wife regarding the source of the fund.
