The primary source of income is the plantation.
Water Beast, a hundred each per month, each Little Otter, Otter Kai, and Scarface have five taels for Little Beaver and Little River Dolphin, slightly higher for some, with twenty in total. Golden Tiger, eighty each, Porcupine a hundred, evenly distributed.
Long Yao and Long Li, each three hundred a month, Auntie Li and others add up to dozens.
This leads to over two thousand taels of high expenses monthly, excluding household items and meals.
Expenditure at the mansion is mostly offset by income from the medicine field.
Two years ago, the Hanging Temple bought anthropomorphic magic for the Water Beast, Long Eying gave over thirty thousand taels, Liang Qu thought the Great Elder was generous to his granddaughter, only to find out afterwards that it was actually paid using the red envelope given by Madam Xu, five thousand six hundred, with more than half of it!
Shame!
