Chapter 512: Deception

Although Gu Xinyu didn't care about this, and no one dared to make a big deal in front of her, she didn't want to be accused of being unfair behind her back.

Since it is a recruitment, give everyone who wants to come a chance.

"Mrs. Wang, you are very thoughtful." Gu Xinyu praised Mrs. Wang, and then continued, "Cuixiang is young, even if she is skilled, but she is not famous, so she is not convinced, who is more famous in our handiwork in Rongcheng?" ”

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang was stunned for a moment, and then thought about it, that person is good at embroidery, and he is just a subordinate, for them, it is relatively capable, but for the people of the Guogong Mansion, it must be very normal.

"Young lady, if you want to say that the best embroidery in Rongcheng is also more famous, it is the embroidery lady Cong Mama of the Guogong Mansion!"

"Mama Cong?" Gu Xinyu heard Mrs. Wang's words, her brain spun rapidly, searching for this name, she remembered, this person also lived in Zhuangzi with Mrs. Tai for a while, she glanced at the Luo skirt of the silk on her body, and continued with some shame, "Mrs. Wang didn't mention it, I forgot, the Luo skirt on my body was sewn for me by Mama Cong, but at that time, I was busy with spring ploughing every day, and I didn't pay much attention to it."

Mrs. Wang smiled heartily, "Young lady, you are a person who does big things, and what you do is good for the country and the people, how can you have time to pay attention to these small things, I only know when I go out these days that this year, the land in our Rongcheng is cultivated according to the requirements of the young lady, and there are also reconstructed paddy fields, many people say that the young lady is the reincarnation of the Bodhisattva, specially to help the poor." ”

He Ziqing also interjected at this time, "Young lady, I often hear people say this in the restaurant, those poor peasants of our Zhou Dynasty will soon live a life of food and clothing, I remember one day an old man came to the restaurant, he heard that our pot wrapped meat is particularly delicious, so he wanted to buy some for his little grandsons to taste, but unfortunately the silver is not enough, only dozens of copper plates, I asked the master to make a little more material for other guests, and then just symbolically received five copper plates. ”

Speaking of this, He Ziqing was a little gloomy, not that he would be worried that Gu Xinyu would not be happy that she would confiscate the silver, on the contrary, if Gu Xinyu was present at the time, he would not even accept these five copper plates.

But after all, He Ziqing was born in a family of merchants, and what he is most afraid of in business is that he has no principles and is extravagant.

You must know that in the eyes of businessmen, a copper plate is very important.

"The elderly are like this, they are not willing to eat anything in their lives, but they are willing to give it to their grandchildren." Mrs. Wang on the side sighed.

Gu Xinyu nodded, no matter what era it is, the best tradition of the Chinese nation is actually to love children.

Especially parents to their own children.

Then a few people listened to He Ziqing continue.

"The old man is a thousand thanks, I chatted with him a few words, then I learned that his family has a total of forty acres of land, there are more than 30 people in the family, although there is a lot of land, but the output is not much, so every year to the spring will be starved, this year his family is the first in the village to respond, the twenty acres into paddy fields, the other twenty acres are also in accordance with the requirements of the government to do, he took several sons to Du Sanlang taught them the method firmly remembered, is the first in the village to master, and then there are many people to follow them to learn it, He sprinkled a kind of fish fry in the rice field, saying that it was a kind of fish caught in a river loop, and when it grew up, it tasted very delicious and did not smell earthy. ”

He Ziqing, who said this, smiled and said to Gu Xinyu, "The old man also said that when the fish grow up in autumn, I will send it to the owner of Taoyuan Villa to taste it, and then a few of us will also have a mouthful." ”

Gu Xinyu smiled and promised again and again that as long as the old man sent her fish, she would definitely ask everyone to try it together.

For a while, the atmosphere in the room was very harmonious.

Even Aunt Lin, who was next to her, echoed it again and again, because most of the people she came into contact with were like this, and she also knew that Rongcheng had changed this year.

Because in the Zhou Dynasty, if you count carefully, the number of farmers who still farm the land is the most, and there will be only one person in business for about a hundred farmers, so relatively speaking, the poor still account for the majority.

The same is true for doing business, the better the life of the people around you, the higher your purchasing power, and the more you can earn.

Otherwise, there are poor people everywhere, no matter how good your things are, he has no money to buy them, and you can't give them to him for nothing, then of course this business will not be able to continue.

Just like Kyoto, there are many merchants there, also because Kyoto's purchasing power is the highest in the entire Zhou Dynasty.

At this time, the cool breeze came out of the courtyard, and the wisps were refreshing, and Mrs. Wang's courtyard was also very well served, full of flowers and plants suitable for blooming in the north.

At this time, there is a red flower that is already full of bones, and it is believed that it will bloom in a few days.

A few people continued to gossip, and suddenly heard a knock on the door, and the voice turned out to be Chunxue, "Young lady, young lady"

The voice was loud, full of anxiety and panic.

What happened?

Gu Xinyu stood up, Aunt Lin's movements were very fast, her slightly fat body was extremely flexible at this time, and she left the courtyard in the blink of an eye, passed through the corridor, quickly opened the door, and welcomed the nervous Spring Snow in.

Chunli and Chunxue went to the Zhu family, and these two maids, everyone nearby knew who it was, and no one dared to provoke them.

Then it must be something that happened to the Zhu family.

Several people looked at each other, all of them at this thought.

Soon Chunxue's figure appeared in the courtyard, and seeing Gu Xinyu was like seeing a savior, and before anyone arrived at the flower hall, she shouted loudly, "Young lady, something happened to the Zhu family, and a group of people smashed things in her house."

"Smashing things?" Gu Xinyu's voice couldn't help but rise, in broad daylight, someone actually came to smash things, and there was really no royal law.

Gu Xinyu no longer asked in detail, but raised his leg and walked outside, asking Chunxue as he walked, "What about Chunli, is anyone injured?" ”

Chunxue saw that Gu Xinyu had quickly returned to normal, because Gu Xinyu was their backbone.

She hurriedly shook her head and said crisply beside her, "Young lady, Chunli is with the sister of the Zhu family, she asked me to report first." ”

When he said this, Gu Xinyu had already walked to the gate, Xiao Tian was originally waiting outside the door, but when he heard Gu Xinyu's voice, he pushed the hidden door open from the outside.

"Xiaotian, follow me to have a look." Gu Xinyu said to Xiao Tian, and at the same time, her footsteps did not stop, followed by He Ziqing, Mrs. Wang, and Aunt Lin.

Mrs. Wang's home is in the northwest corner of the shop, and you have to turn around to see the big shop and the Zhu family to the east.

A few people walked quickly, and after a few moments, they were in the corner, and from this position they could see what was happening in front of them (to be continued). )
