In order to build the farmstead, she spent money like water. Even though she knew that this was for the backup plan, her heart couldn't help but ache.
The Emperor, who had originally thought that they were just buying assets, couldn't help but think after receiving the list of their expenses. "They're spending more than 2,600 taels on just a small farmstead?"
"Yes, they built many houses in the farmstead to house the servants and long-term workers. In addition to the development of the three hills, a total of nearly 500 taels of silver was gone. Including the farmstead that's under construction, they spent roughly that amount."
"How much do they make in a year?"
The secret guard thought for a moment and replied, "Based on the yield per acre and grain prices last year, 180 acres of land can only earn 800 taels of silver. This doesn't include the cost of farming."
The Emperor knocked on the table. "So this is a loss-making business?"
