The book has no strength, the female supporting role just wants to survive

Chapter 264 The Frugal Prince

The girl holding the Ruanqin nodded, and then went upstairs with the girls behind her.

Qiu Niang sighed slowly. She knew that Xiao Mingxu was a good person and that he was not short of money. Every month Xiao Mingxu and Hao Youcai would allocate funds to the Zheyuan, so they would still have money for food.

But it is not a long-term solution if it continues like this. If the deficit continues, the Nazhe Garden may have to close one day. The Nazhe Garden was originally built because of Xiao Mingxu and his two friends' sudden decision, so it is reasonable to close it because of the lack of profit.

For Xiao Mingxu and his friends, it was just a loss of a store, but the girls in Nazheyuan would have a hard time in the future.

In the private room upstairs, Ji Lingyue hid behind Jiang Tunan in fear. Xiao Mingrui looked at Xiao Mingxu and Baili Xun in silence.

"Your Highness the Third Prince, I didn't expect that you also like to listen to music."

"I just listen to it to kill time in my spare time."

"You are too modest. From the moment you walked into this garden, I noticed that your temperament is completely different!"

"You have good taste! I didn't expect that Mr. Xiao San has such high aesthetic taste. I am really impressed by him."

"Your Highness!"

"Mr. Xiao San!"

Jiang Tunan & Xiao Mingrui: Crazy.

At this time, Qiu Niang brought people into the private room, and Xiao Mingxu waved his hand.

"Your Highness, the Third Prince, I invite you to listen to music today."

Qiu Niang stared at Xiao Mingxu, trying to make him shut up. They finally had a new customer, but in the end it was the boss who paid. How could this be?

"Hey, I'm a prince, how can I ask you to pay? I think the prices here are fair and the service attitude is good, much better than that Changgefang."

Baili Xuan seemed to have some complaints about Changgefang, and his tone sounded somewhat disdainful when he mentioned Changgefang.

"You have good vision! Your Highness, come down and do one!"

Baili Xun's words finally pleased Xiao Mingxu. Qiu Niang winked at the people behind her, and everyone in Nazheyuan began to play the instruments in their hands.

"Sister Xiaonan, that girl seems pretty good."

Following Ji Lingyue's words, Jiang Tunan looked at a woman in a light yellow dress. The instrument in her hand was unfamiliar to Jiang Tunan. It had four strings and a round body. Her fingers flexibly changed positions between the strings, and the sound was smooth and full of emotion.

"Indeed, it looks amazing."

Moreover, Jiang Tunan discovered that the other people's playing abilities were also quite good. It seemed that Xiao Mingxu had indeed put a lot of thought into the management of Nazhe Garden.

Ji Lingyue was already immersed in the music. Xiao Mingrui didn't have much expression, just staring at the table in a daze. He seemed a little bored.

"Cousin Mingrui, do you think they played badly?"

Jiang Tunan asked quietly, Xiao Mingrui came back to his senses and said,

"I'm just not interested in that stuff. The music doesn't sound any different to me."

Jiang Tunan understood.

"Tone-deaf, I understand."

Xiao Mingrui:?

Xiao Mingxu asked Baili Xuan with some pride,

"Your Highness, how is it?"

"It's really good. These people are about the same level as the musicians in Changgefang."

Baili Xuan then changed the subject.

"but..."

Xiao Mingxu became a little nervous when he heard this and immediately asked,

"But what?"

"Their individual styles are too distinct and they are not suitable to play together. The whole sound is a bit too noisy."

Jiang Tunan nodded in agreement. She had felt something was strange just now, but couldn't tell what was wrong. She understood after Baili Xuan said this.

"How could that be? I think every one of them is very nice."

Xiao Mingxu murmured quietly, and Baili Xuan comforted him,

"It's okay. The price/performance ratio here is much higher than that of Changgefang. Now Changgefang charges a threshold of 100 taels just to enter the door. It's simply a scam."

"How much?"

Jiang Tunan couldn't believe his ears.

"One hundred taels?!"

No wonder Xiao Mingxu wanted to open a music hall similar to Changgefang. Its ability to make money is too strong.

"Yeah, it's expensive."

Baili Xuan responded. Seeing Baili Xuan looking distressed about the money, Jiang Tunan spoke up.

"Didn't you say you are a rich and handsome prince? Is a mere hundred taels worth your concern?"

Baili Xuan coughed heavily.

"This is called thriftiness. Money should be spent wisely."

Jiang Tunan: I almost believed it.
