Persuasion

Qi Haoran was well aware of the distinction; it was fine for all his and his estate's money to be put into the country's treasury, but Ah Ling's money could not be used for this purpose. If this were to happen once, it could very well happen a second or third time. The three brothers were seeing no end to filling this hole already, so how could he drag his wife into it?
It was fine if Ah Ling's dowry was used for their daily necessities, but it could not be used for business. He knew what Mu Yangling meant—to first use her dowry to buy the goods to be sold in the capital. If they lost money on this business deal, she would be the one to incur the loss. If they made money, it would go to the Prince's Residence. When the time came, the money would then be used to buy the grains to be transported back to Qiannan.
