Chapter Ninety-Eight: Under His Banner
After Yan Tianyan finished speaking, he looked at Shen Ningxiang very meaningfully. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The third aunt and the fourth aunt, Liu Meiyuan, and Jiang Wenwen, looked at it with a few pairs of eyes.
They didn't understand what Yan Qianyan wanted Shen Ningxiang to help?
Shen Ningxiang didn't understand either, so she agreed to it: "The young lady has something to do, just give orders." ”
"That's good."
After Yan Tianyan finished speaking, he picked up the account book on the table and flipped through it for a while. Only then did he clear his throat and said, "Yunyan, go and ask Chief Sima to come." ”
The rain and smoke went for half an hour, and Yan Tianyan only drank tea and did not speak.
The three aunts and four gods didn't know what Yan Tianyan meant, and it was inconvenient to say more, and they didn't know what was wrong, everyone was dissatisfied with her in their hearts. But now I dare not say anything.
You look at me, I look at your stupid sitting, no one speaks.
Half an hour seems like a long time.
Steward Sima hurriedly followed Yunyan over.
Yan Tianyan put down the teacup at this time: "Lu Qiao, show Uncle Sima a seat." Serve tea. ”
After Butler Sima took his seat. Yan Tianyan looked at everyone: "I invited everyone today." There is something I want to tell you. As you all know, I am now the head of our Mu Mansion, and I have to manage all the affairs of the house. That is, he is responsible for eating, drinking, and sleeping more than 100 people in the house, as well as the human accident of communication outside the house. The responsibility is heavy! Steward Sima has already brought me all the account books in the house. ”
After speaking, he looked at the people present very seriously, everyone was very concerned and surprised, and their eyes were staring at her. 、
They didn't understand, and they never knew what the housewife would tell them. They don't worry about what the account book is, as long as the monthly silver, food and drink supplies are distributed on time.
The first thing Yan Qianyan, who had just begun to take charge, was to talk about the account book, what should he do?
Yan Tianyan was unhurried and drank a few sips of tea. After hanging his appetite for a while, he said, "You have all lived in the house for several years, and no one has been longer than me." I also know that there is no income in our house, and the son has no money. The daily expenses are mainly based on the rent of a few shops on the street, as well as the goods returned from pawns. When Uncle Sima handed over the account book to me, there were still three hundred taels of silver, more than a dozen antiques, and a few calligraphy and paintings on the account book. So we're struggling to make ends meet right now. ”
Leap the pale? What do you mean by that?
Liu's and Han's eyes are bigger than Tongling's, and in the past few years, they only know how to dress, eat, and dress idlely, and both pairs of eyes are staring straight at the position of the head of the Mu Mansion. I want to see if there is a chance for my niece and niece to stay in the Mu family forever.
But I never knew or cared about having no money to spend. How can there be no money in such a big mansion?
Liu Meiyuan and Jiang Wenwen are even more unclear. If Mu Mansion has no money, who still has money?
Seeing that they were at a loss, Yan Tianyan said lightly: "This is a fact, you must have all heard of it, and you are afraid of scooping up the stagnant water." There are now one hundred and thirty people in the house, master, counting Miss Shen, Miss Meiyuan, Miss Wenwen and my sister, twelve. So many people live on thousands of taels a month. It's not a human world. “
She said this and looked at Steward Sima, what she said was a bit exaggerated, but the account must be reported a little more just in case.
Steward Sima nodded: "The young lady is right, she has to spend so much silver every month. It's been a few months of antiques. ”
It doesn't seem alarmist.
Liu's Han looked at each other at this time.
"Also, you all know that now Gongzi has taken over the three major industries in the house, although it was once very brilliant, but now it is in a semi-paralyzed state, which means that not only has no money to make, but also has to repair and grow and restart production. It doesn't take a thousand children and eight hundred taels. Therefore, as the master of the Mu family, we contribute to the son and think about the great cause of the house. Those who have money contribute money and those who don't have money to contribute, 800 is not too much, 1200 is not less, it is considered to be borrowed. When our property makes money in the future, we will double it and return it to you, and Steward Sima will record it in the account book. ”
"Childe needs us now."
She said it very sensationally, it seemed that she was really thinking about Mu Hanfeng, and she was enthusiastic. In fact, this bit of silver didn't play a role in Mu Hanfeng at all, she was raising some money under his banner.
Steward Sima raised his slightly lowered head, feeling surprised. He has been a housekeeper for many years, and although the princess is the head of the house, where can he care about this. He always had money to fill it in, but he didn't have money to figure it out on his own, and the account book only had to be handed over to the princess every month.
So every day he worries about money. He was so worried that he wished to hand over the account to the young lady as soon as possible.
Now that I am finally relieved, I heard Yan Tianyan say this, but I am a little regretful, I have been careful and conscientious over the years, but I can only rely on the province and the pawn.
I don't know if that's the case yet.
The Liu and Han clans are all shrewd people, and after understanding Yan Qianyan's words, they weighed the pros and cons.
Han preemptively said: "Young lady, you know that the third aunt and I don't have many children in my hands, so I saved a dowry for Meiyuan, and I gave it all to my son." I'll do the math, about five hundred taels. Five hundred taels, how much can you pay back if you earn money? ”
Yan Tianyan quickly calculated that after that: "Give thirty taels more than a year." Of course, you will give more if you earn more, but it is estimated that you can only give some interest in the first year or two. The principal is repaid after three years. The third aunt thought about it and became six hundred taels after five hundred and three years. How cost-effective. How long you put it in the money box is five hundred taels. ”
Liu was right to think about it, and decided on the spot: "Then lend five hundred taels to Gongzi first." ”
After speaking, she secretly glanced at Liu Meiyuan, she was a little worried that her niece was unwilling, she was not young, this was her dowry.
found that Liu Meiyuan was happier than her. Or that unabashed pride of joy.
was at ease, and her niece had been eyeing her son for several years. Wouldn't mind lending him his dowry.
Seeing that the Liu family went to get the silver, the Han family was also anxious, and she couldn't fall behind what the Liu family could do. She started counting with her fingers, and asked Jiang Wenwen to come along. After calculating for a while, I decided to borrow five hundred as well.
Both of these are out, and there are almost 1,500 plus their own.
A little saving should be enough to open a smaller tea house. She saw that there was just a store that had expired, and the boss was going to change careers, so she just took it back.
She asked Midori to take out her own and put it on the table.
After watching Steward Sima register one by one, he clapped his hands: "By the way, there is one more thing to announce: Based on the current difficulties, I have decided to lower everyone's living standards from this month onwards, and there is no need to eat meat and fish every day." There is also pocket money of two taels of silver per person per month in the future, a special period. Our thrift. (To be continued.) )
