Chapter 40: Repay the favor as soon as possible

"The master mother is polite, this is what subordinates should do." Everyone responded in unison, and then they got up and sat down according to their ranks.

Dong Rong thought about it and asked about the general disposition of all the business of the firm. Although she had seen the shops closed before, she couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart when she heard that more than 200 shops of all colors under the trading house had closed. This is all her hard work, when their husband and wife suddenly had an accident, they had to temporarily avoid the edge, although it is an expedient measure, but also the best way to reduce losses, but this "reduction" is also relative to the entire business bank. If it is placed in the home of an ordinary businessman, it is definitely enough to go bankrupt.

But her heart hurts, but at such a time, she can't help but grit her teeth and hold on, after all, more than 1,000 people under the commercial bank are looking at her face. If her family is decadent first, then wouldn't these subordinates be even more panicked.

"You coped well with this accident and avoided greater losses for the firm in time." Dong Rong nodded in affirmation of the subordinates, and then said with a smile, "Our firm has always been rewarded for merit and punished. In this way, the order will be issued, and all the people who rest at home will be given monthly silver as usual, and once the shops under the commercial bank reopen, the monthly silver will rise by two percent. ”

Except for Zhang Yang, the rest of the people were all overjoyed when they heard this. The so-called one person attains the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven. They can climb to the position of the chief steward of the trading bank, and they all have some ability. Dong Rong has always been lenient, so many of their sons and nephews have entered the business bank with the help of this water-side building. As soon as such an order was handed down, they naturally benefited a lot, so they all smiled happily, "The subordinates thank the master mother for the generous reward for everyone." ”

"In times of great calamity, we see loyalty, since everyone will never abandon the firm, of course the firm will not treat everyone badly." Dong Rong waved her hand lightly, and at the end, she asked a few simple things and motioned for a few stewards to go down. Although everyone has some status in the trading house and is trustworthy on weekdays, they are not stupid enough to compare with Zhang Yang, so they saluted again and retired together.

Zhang Yang waited until the room was quiet, and then he said, "Sister-in-law, you must have suffered a lot of hard work these days." The family was extremely worried, and several old people almost didn't eat rice, but the second sister and the second grandmother persuaded them, which was better. ”

Dong Rong is a kind-hearted and filial person, and after many years of getting along, she naturally also thinks about a few old people, and hurriedly asks them how they are in health and where they are now.

Zhang Yang didn't dare to hide it at all, and said in a low voice, "A few months ago, the second master personally sent the old man to the island of the Philippines and secretly purchased the manor. Except for a few people, absolutely no outsiders knew about it, and it was very safe. The second master also got the letter you left and told a few old people, and they were somewhat relieved. It's just that the second master missed the front and back feet with his sister-in-law, and he regretted it and wanted to jump into the sea. These days, I still wander around the coastal state capitals, hoping to meet my sister-in-law. ”

Dong Rong was sad and painful when she heard this, and sighed, "I'm afraid this incident really scared the family, what about the three children, but they found it, where did they send it to be placed?" ”

Zhang Yang thought of the news sent from the grassland, his face was a little strange, and he replied thoughtfully, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, Brother Qi'er is smart, and he hasn't been wronged at all." They had noticed something wrong with the guards in time, so they fled north halfway, played all the way, and even went to a side slope for a walk, and then went directly to the military city with the caravan. Now I'm with Gardi, that, well, it's doing well. ”

"The three children ran to Galdi?" Dong Rong is such a smart person, as soon as her mind turns, she has already guessed that it is not far from ten, "These three naughty bags will not fight with Gardi, right?" What nonsense! The sword has no eyes, what if it gets hurt? ”

Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, thinking that a few children may be fighting for life and death with others at the moment, Dong Rong couldn't sit still anymore, and she was about to get angry when she got up. Zhang Yang hurriedly persuaded, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, you don't have to worry." Gardi is a powerful one, but in half a year, he has now captured most of the grassland, and there are a few grasslands left, which are also in the bag. He set aside a team of men to protect the three children, and he didn't even allow them to leave his side. Even if you eat and live in one tent, you really don't have to worry about the safety of three children. ”

When Dong Rong heard this, she finally relaxed a little. After being silent for a long time, he couldn't help but ask, "Is there any change in the trade routes over the military city?" ”

Zhang Yang shook his head and answered, "Our firm has been in business for so many years, and the gold people on the grassland only recognize the goods of our firm, even if someone wants to get a piece of the pie, it is not easy." Moreover, Mr. Xu is a classmate of the second master, and he has always been treated preferentially, and the goods in and out have never been troubled. ”

"That's good, although the shops of our trading house are closed, there are still some goods. Whatever can be used in the grassland, transport more of it. Dong Rong couldn't say it clearly, she felt sorry for the hardships of a few children, but Zhang Yang couldn't hear it, so she responded with a smile, "I don't have to tell my sister-in-law, I have already arranged it, there will be a convoy every half a month, and there will be no shortage of food for a few children." ”

Dong Rong coughed lightly, as the old saying goes, a loving mother loses many children, she naturally understands this truth, but this time she escaped death, her husband doesn't know whether she is alive or dead, maybe she can only spend the rest of her life with a few children in the future, how can she not be more doting. I really can't wait to change them all back in the next moment, hold them in my mouth and protect them, and I definitely can't make a little difference.

"Sister-in-law, the second master, I have already sent someone to report the news quickly, and I will definitely be able to come in three or five days. How many days should we wait? Zhang Yang diverted from the conversation.

Dong Rong thought of her younger brother, who had always been close to her, and she didn't know how to be anxious and worried about her safety. Now that they are finally together, she has to wait a few days, so she said, "Of course, if you don't wait for him to come over and go on the road together, I'm afraid he will complain again." ”

She was talking like this, but the shopkeeper of Buzhuang knocked on the door, and then came in and respectfully reported, "Yu Dongjia, the young man found a little maid peeping at the back door, and after inquiring about it, he learned that she was from the Liang family. Mrs. Xu is Liang was worried about the safety of the owner, so she specially sent someone to visit. ”

Dong Rong remembered that she had been captured by the Maitreya sect since the Liang family before, and Mrs. Liang didn't know how to worry, so she hurriedly ordered, "That maid must be a purple bird, tell her first, I'm safe, and I'll visit the Liang family in a while." ”

The shopkeeper of the cloth village hurriedly responded and walked out quickly.

Dong Rong thought that now that she had successfully joined her family, there would probably be no more major dangers. Those who had helped her before were to express their gratitude no matter what. So, she pondered for a moment and then wrote a letter, and said to Zhang Yang, "I was exiled before, and I have received a lot of help from benefactors. Their circumstances are not very smooth, and now that I have returned safely, I should repay the favor in time. I don't feel at ease when someone else handles this matter. I have to bother my brother-in-law to arrange more. ”

As soon as Zhang Yang heard this, how could he shirk it, when someone was in danger, it was a great favor, not to mention that the spring reciprocated, at least he had to give back as much as he could.

At that moment, Dong Rong briefly talked about the wandering along the way, focusing on the guilt of the ancestors and grandchildren of the Yao family, as well as the righteousness of the third master of the Liu family, as for the old fisherman, giving more gold and silver is the best thank-you gift.

After that, she handed the letter to Zhang Yang, "This letter must be handed over to Liu Sanye in person, and the thank you gift must be as generous as possible." Yazhou is also going to be dealt with, but the Yao family's ancestors and grandchildren can't be commuted, at least they must be made to suffer less, and then find another way when the matter of our business bank is over. ”

Although she said it lightly, how could such a smart person not know the pain contained in the words and sentences. He inevitably sighed with emotion in his heart, but he also knew that his sister-in-law and housewife was a strong person, and he must not like sympathy, so he tried his best to restrain the sadness on his face and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will arrange these things properly." Let someone arrange a generous gift first, and you can't be empty-handed when you go to Liang's house. ”

Dong Rong smiled and nodded, "The Liang family has also helped me a lot, and let people prepare five hundred taels of silver tickets." ”

"Okay, I'll go get ready." Zhang Yang answered and went down, and soon the two little maids walked in again, and out of nowhere, they took out a dark purple cloak trimmed with mink fur, a delicate hand stove with carved hollows, and carefully waited for Dong Rong to get dressed. At this time, the two chief stewards were also waiting at the door with gift boxes. More than a dozen of their own guards, plus twenty executioners hired by the best dart bureau in the city, surrounded Dong Rong's carriage and went out of the alley.

Dong Rong felt that this battle was a bit big, but she shut up when she thought about the arrogance of the Maitreya Sect. Presumably, Zhang Yang is also afraid that Maitreya will really tear his face, so he will make a tough move again in broad daylight.

Soon, the carriage swaggered all the way through the city to the alley where Liang's house was located. The old porter was standing on the steps and looking, and he was also startled when he saw this, and tried to move his old arms and legs to the yard to report.

When the carriage arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Master Liang just shouted that the old gatekeeper had opened the door, and the carriage drove directly in. Dong Rong helped the maid's hand to get out of the car, and after a long time of saluting Master Liang, he reacted, and was busy returning the salute, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he only held back one sentence, "Cheap inner courtyard, please move Mrs." ”

Dong Rong didn't want to say more to him, so she nodded and entered the inner courtyard. Zique shouted and greeted the second door, and shouted with a look of surprise, "Sister-in-law Cao, it's great that you're okay." It scared the hell out of me! I thought I'd never see you again! ”

"Purple Sparrow, don't be rude!" Mrs. Liang stood under the eaves, holding Dabao in her arms, and saw Dong Rong, who had become extravagant after only a few hours, and her heart was a little complicated. After thinking about it, he bowed his head and saluted first, "Mrs. Dong is fine, the little woman is polite." ”

Dong Rong sighed in her heart, waved her hand to signal everyone to stay, and then hurriedly stepped forward to support her, complaining, "What are you doing, but you want to have a relationship with me." ”R638
