Chapter 66: The Waves
After speaking, Jin Yan looked at her girl, and saw that her expression was still the same, and she didn't seem to care about it at all. But she was angry, this was different from Xie Zi'an taking Liniang and Kang Ge'er back to the house alive, she was angry that Yan Du couldn't live with her girl.
The girl was still pregnant with his child, and she was desperate to give birth, but he wanted to marry someone else.
"It's a good day, let's go out. Liu Yunxiang said.
"Girl, your body ......"
"I still have to do what needs to be done, otherwise I won't be blind. ”
"Bah, you are talking about these bad things. ”
Liu Yunxiang smiled bitterly, her body is not as good as day by day, but she can't prepare.
Jin Yan asked the groom to park the carriage in the alley, and then helped Liu Yunxiang get out of the car, and then walked towards the street. When I passed by the silk village, I met Yuan Qingyue coming out with two maidservants.
is different from the white dress and plain skirt that always wore a fairy spirit in the past, and today I wear a scarlet gown, with a peach-colored skirt inside, and a pearl and jade ring, full of joy. And the two handmaidens beside her were carrying them in their arms, and they seemed to have bought a lot of things.
When Yuan Qingyue saw her, her chin rose slightly, walked up to Liu Yunxiang, and said, "Third lady, I haven't seen you for a few days, why is your complexion so bad, aren't you sad?"
Liu Yunxiang glanced at Yuan Qingyue and said with a smile: "What do you think I'm sad about?"
Remember the URL
Yuan Qingyue covered her mouth and smiled, "Naturally, I can't touch the moon in the mirror, and I can't catch the flowers in the water." ”
"The moon in the mirror, the flowers in the water, you can't touch it, why do you think it's yours?"
"Why isn't it mine?"
"It's just a side room. ”
"But I have a name, do you?"
Liu Yunxiang looked at Yuan Qingyue like this, and suddenly felt that she was quite pitiful, a noble girl from a family, who used to be so noble and arrogant, and now she is happy to be in a side room. And she clearly knew that Yan Du only regarded her as a stand-in and didn't love her at all.
"Miss Yuan, eat more pig brains. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Replenish your brain. ”
After speaking, Liu Yunxiang walked forward, with a breath of anger in his heart.
It's not because of Yuan Qingyue's words, nor because Yan Du wants to marry her, but because she suddenly feels that she should eat more of this thing like pig brains.
The Lingyun grain store was overcrowded, and Liu Yunxiang had to go around to the back door to enter. She drank two cups of tea, and Zhang Qi came back from the front wiping her sweat.
"This rice, flour, grain and oil have been shipped in one after another, and the major grain stores have also opened, but the big guy gives face, and he will buy it here first. ”
Liu Yunxiang poured him a cup of tea and asked him to drink some water to catch his breath first.
"I didn't ask you to promote a steward from below, why are you still doing it yourself?"
"I'm not worried. ”
"Sit down first. Liu Yunxiang poured another cup of tea for Zhang Qi, "Your people, you don't worry, but I don't worry." ”
With Liu Yunxiang's words, Zhang Qi felt that all the hard work these days was worth it.
"You have read all the account books I sent you, but what's wrong?"
"The account books you made are very detailed, and I remember every one clearly, I only read one, and the others only looked at the final total. ”
"Which one is a little different, it's all white money, you believe me like that?"
"Letter. Liu Yunxiang looked at Zhang Qi, "If you don't believe it, I don't need you." ”
"With the words of Mrs., Zhang Qi will be your partner for a lifetime. ”
Liu Yunxiang smiled, "That's overkill." ”
She took out a stack of silver tickets from her arms and handed them to Zhang Qi, "Everyone has worked hard these days, don't talk nonsense, you have divided these silver tickets with the big guy." Each of these men under your command shall receive a hundred taels, and you shall receive a thousand taels. ”
Zhang Qi's eyes widened, "One hundred taels?"
His hands holding those silver tickets were shaking, one hundred taels, ordinary people would save for more than ten years, and one thousand taels would not dare to think to him, he would not be able to save it in his lifetime.
And with Madame, neither they nor their families starved during this famine, which was already a great blessing.
"No, no, we can't take it. ”
Liu Yunxiang pushed it back, "Take it, don't hinder me from buying people's hearts." ”
"This ......"
"Unless you're too little. ”
"No, no, it's too much. ”
Liu Yunxiang asked Zhang Qi's subordinates, "Come here today, there is one more matter to discuss with you." ”
You say. ”
Liu Yunxiang pondered for a moment and said, "The business of the grain store is stable, and I want to do some other business." ”
Zhang Qi nodded, "As long as there is a signboard of Lingyun, what business we do, the people will cheer for it." ”
In the famine, resolutely do not raise prices, do not flatter power, treat everyone equally, first of all, the integrity is played, plus the plaque of the Queen Mother, the government also has to give face, so everything can be done smoothly.
"I want to open a charcoal shop. ”
"Huh?"
"Charcoal shop. ”
Zhang Qi blinked, he thought it was a silk village, a restaurant, a jewelry store, how could it be a charcoal shop.
This charcoal is only willing to be used by large households, ordinary people are burning firewood for heating, the demand is not large, there are only three charcoal shops in Shengjing. The most important thing is that each family has a fixed charcoal shop, which is sent over every winter, and the newly opened ones are afraid that they will not come out. Besides, good charcoal is very expensive, and it is not suitable to start storing it now that it requires a large amount of silver.
All things considered, this business is difficult to do, and there is a greater possibility of losing money.
After listening to Zhang Qi's analysis, Liu Yunxiang nodded again and again, very much in agreement and very appreciative.
"What if this year is colder than usual, or even snowy?"
"Huh?"
"I'm afraid that the reserves of the three charcoal shops are not enough. ”
"But how do you know that this winter is cold, how do you know that there is heavy snow, this is not God's business?"
"How do I know, you don't care, you just say that if that's the case, can this business be done?"
"Nature can be done, and as long as someone comes to us to buy charcoal, it is equivalent to opening a gap, as long as we maintain it well, the business in the coming year will also be there, and the three major charcoal shops in Shengjing will become the four. ”
"Then sit. ”
"Are you accurate in your prediction?"
Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Didn't I tell you, I will divination." ”
"Well, not really. ”
Liu Yunxiang thought for a while and said: "Since it is a cold winter, the fur business must be easy to do, you can prepare it and see if you send someone or you yourself to go north and sell some leather goods back." ”
"Good. ”
"The sixty thousand taels of silver you gave me before, plus the ones I scraped together, are a total of eighty thousand taels, you use them first, and then tell me when they are not enough. ”
Before leaving, she said to Zhang Qi: "I will give you full authority to hand over this Lingyun's business, this is not only trust, but also my last fight." ”
"A last stand?"
"If I'm gone, he's your boss. ”
Liu Yunxiang pointed to his slightly bulging lower abdomen, "You have to protect him." ”
