"Young master," said Shopkeeper He, explaining Yu Ang's intentions to Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang, "the meaning of Marquis is that the treasure has disappeared without a trace, and His Majesty the retired emperor remains distrustful of us. He might find another excuse to confiscate the Marquis's property in the future."
"So, it's very good that the young madam can make money now. If she could earn enough to match, or even surpass, the value of that treasure, then even if His Majesty decided to confiscate our property, it would not matter much."
"Right now, the assets in the Marquis's hands fall far short of the value of that treasure, so the Marquis said that if the young madam has any other ways to earn money, she should just speak up. The more we can make, the better."
Shopkeeper He began speaking, explaining the implications of Yu Ang's words to Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang.
Yu Ang was making provisions for the future.
