017 Mama's proposal, the idea of light dance
"Welcome! I don't know the guest officer...... Miss, are you back? Lu Zhen, who was planning to dish, heard the bell ringing at the door, so he raised his head and said, only to see the mackerel walking in, so he said very pleasantly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Hmm. Lu Zhen, why are you the only one in the store? What about Miao Qing and Mizuki? It's not lunchtime either, so what are they doing? Mackerel looked at the medicine sold on the shelf, because she had stipulated that only ten packets or ten bottles of one medicine could be placed on the shelf at a time a day, and a second time when it was sold out, so now it seemed that today's business was not bad, because the store had only been open for more than an hour.
"Back to Miss, the two of them went to the back pharmacy to make medicine. Because yesterday afternoon, a father-in-law from the palace came over and ordered 3,000 copies of hemostatic medicine and knife wound medicine, and 1,500 copies of one medicine, and they would need it in five days, so they have been busy in the medicine room since yesterday afternoon. Lu Zhen said respectfully. Because the young lady was very good to the three of them, except for the kindness of saving them from the black market, it was the same now.
Because the young lady signed a contract with them for ten years, as long as they earned enough money for ten times the money she bought them in ten years, and then they also had enough ability to protect themselves, then after ten years, whether they wanted to stay or leave directly, she would agree, depending on their own choice. And their wages are also linked to the quality of the business in the store, for example, if they sell 1,000 bottles of medicine a month, they will add one tael of silver to each of them, and if it is 10,000 bottles of medicine, it will be 100,000 taels of silver, so their own efforts are also very important.
"Really? So it seems that in the month since I left, the business in the store should be very good, so I will take over the business from the palace, yes, this is good! Show me the ledger so I can see exactly how much money I've made! Mackerel said lightly and sat down behind the counter. Because the capital she invested was more than 12,000 taels of medicinal materials, and she calculated the sales in the store for about forty days, now she has to see how much money she has earned in addition to the money she has returned.
Lu Zhen naturally took out the account book immediately, and while the mackerel looked through it, he also calculated silently in his heart, and finally said affirmatively: "Well, yes, in addition to the capital, I also earned more than 8,000 taels, in the capital, it is already very good to have such an entry in a month." I'll stay in the courtyard tonight, and you can come along, and we'll have a reunion dinner together. That's it, I'll go to the other courtyard, and you can continue to watch the things in the store, and remember to come over at night. Mackerel Qingwu said, and left the store, she had to go to the other courtyard to see how Mama Ru was doing, and Lan Qing, one of the twins, how she learned the rules.
"Ruma, Lan Qing, Miss is here!" After Mackerel knocked on the door, the person who opened the door was small, and she was bought by Mama Sack to serve Ruma. Because Mama has no legs, it is also a little inconvenient to live and live, and it is better to have someone to take care of her. And Mama Ru also said to Mama that she was harmed like this by her friend who regarded her as a sister, so she would never enter the palace again. It is precisely because of this that Mackerel Qingwu will let her teach the twins the rules in the palace, and they will accompany her into the palace in the future.
"Miss, you're here! Is that because the matter of your entry into the palace has already been decided? That's why you're coming to the capital again now? Because today is April 17th, and the first draft of the new emperor will be held in early May. Xiao Xiao took Mama Mama's room and left, because Lan Qing was cooking in the kitchen at this time, so she didn't learn the rules with Mama Ru for the time being. Originally, there were only four people in the courtyard, all of them women, but fortunately, the wall was high enough, so I wasn't afraid that someone would come in, so it was quite safe for four people to live!
"Mama, there is nothing wrong with taking this path, and you should understand that this world is always a lot harsh on women, there are always too many unfairness, and it is not so easy to find a sincere man. And although it was sincere at the beginning, but as time goes by, sincerity will always deteriorate, so ah, it is also a marriage, and there is nothing wrong with entering the palace to be the emperor's concubine, when you fall out of favor, you can live some idle days, and when you are favored, you can enjoy the process of fighting, which is also very good! Of course, Mackerel Light Dance was very open to the beginning.
"Now that you've decided, just do it well, and I'm sure you, Miss, will be able to live in peace even if you're in a palace full of dangers. And the most common thing in the palace is to take medicine, especially after pregnancy, Miss, since you know medicine, you must be able to avoid many dangers, and you can also use this ability to please people with higher grades than you. Because for you, the important people are not only the emperor, the queen, the concubine, and even the trusted grandmothers and palace maids around them, you sometimes need to curry favor, so in case of trouble, at least there is a little more hope. Ru Mama said with certainty, she knew that the mackerel light dance could be understood.
"Yes, Mama! Whether I am favored or not, I will live in peace. Because if you are not favored, as long as you guard your own one-third of an acre of land, and then have silver in your hands, you can also live. Well, I won't talk about these things today, because I have given Lord Shangshu a day to think about it, and I believe that he will not disagree with my proposal. I'm going to write a few words now, and tell me how I'm feeling right now. Mackerel said lightly, and went to polish his ink......
The atmosphere in the courtyard here is very relaxed, and the atmosphere in the Shangshu Mansion on the other side is not so good, because Samo Zeyu has just told the Dong family about the three requests made by Samurai Qingwu, and neither of them has spoken at this time. Dong's heart is very unwilling, of course, she is not willing to change from a flat wife to a maid, and she is not as good as her previous aunt status. But she is a smart person, and she is also very aware of the ambition of Saba Zeyu, so she suppressed her unwillingness, pretended to be virtuous and said:
"Xianggong, just agree to the conditions proposed by the eldest lady! After all, she didn't grow up in the house, but stayed in the countryside for seventeen years, and now that she is back, she will immediately enter the palace as a concubine, I think she has imagined what her father is like. No matter how long my sister has been gone, she is the eldest lady in the mansion after all, and now she is the only one who can enter the palace for the draft. ”
"Zhen'er, you still understand me! Don't worry, I will pretend to promise her, and when she enters the palace, you will still be the lady of the house, and your status will not change. But Zhen'er, now the more important thing is to make up 200,000 taels of silver as soon as possible, what we prepared for Lingyun before was only 100,000 taels of silver, I didn't expect it to be doubled when we got to her, I don't know if the house can get it? Hearing that the Dong family was so considerate, Samo Zeyu certainly felt very warm, but then he thought of another request made by Sao Qingwu, and said with a little headache.
"Don't worry, sir, the income of several shops should add up, there should be 100,000 taels. But now it's all taken out, and by the end of this year, there won't be as many as in previous years. The concubine will go back and count it, and strive to come up with a specific number in the afternoon. However, there are still more than ten days left in the draft, so there should be no need to be in such a hurry. Dong said and left, because that's pretty much it.
