Fortunately, Nalan wears civilian clothes when he leaves the palace, otherwise, it seems a little troublesome to wear the clothes of a palace guard. He said, "I am Donggui's brother, you guys wait a minute, I'll go and find him for you." ”

Donggui soon came out, and the girl said again:

"Brother Nalan, we were introduced by Mama, and we are the maids in the family of the Alley Mile, entrusted by the old lady to buy a dowry for the third lady." Needless to say, Donggui was followed, and among these girls, I am afraid that there is also a maid dressed as a young lady.

"Ladies and gentlemen, don't be impatient, you said that you bought a dowry for the young lady, but I only have needles and threads here, and the jewelry is not much and not expensive, can you call the shots? Can you be satisfied with your lady when you buy it back?

The woman who combed her hair in a bun blessed her body and said, "You must be Donggui's little brother, right?" I

Miss Jia has already got the alloy jewelry that Mama bought last time, I like it very much, if you still have it here, can you sell us a few more? Don't limit it. Our young lady will marry once, how good would it be for her to marry happily? Oh, the slave knows, are you afraid that we will buy the goods and sell them, please rest assured, my family can't do that kind of thing, I didn't risk my black yarn hat, it was for the third lady as a dowry. ”

Nalan's guards looked at the gate, there was a car waiting for people on the road in front, and there were a few family members next to the car, it seemed that these girls were really the maids in Lord Cheng's house.

"May I ask this girl, what official position does Master Cheng in your house hold in the imperial court? Can you tell us his name? ”

"My lord is Lord Cheng Gongcheng, the deputy envoy of the Zhengsi General Political Department."

"It's very disrespectful, and I don't know if you're from the House of the Secretary for Justice, so I'm slacking off. If you really buy a dowry for the young lady of the house, everything is easy to say. ”

"We just choose the dowry for the young lady, and we will never resell it."

"I'm just going to ask casually." In fact, the Nalan guards were really afraid that someone would take it from behind, so that they would disappoint the prince and the master and bring it back from afar, and the money would be earned by people they didn't know.

Counting the nine young women came, two of whom seemed to be married, and the others were all young girls from seven or eight years old to teens. In the middle there was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, who was different from the others, a kind of self-nobility, reserve, and a little arrogant. She was led by a girl of seven or eight years old, dressed differently from other girls. Nalan guessed that these two were Miss Master.

The roaring voice of the magpie sounded for a full hour before it subsided, and the burden of Donggui's merchant was empty again. This time it was a vacuum, all the goods were sold, and there was not a single hair left. After calculating the payment, a total of fifty-eight taels of silver were sold. It took only one morning, and such an outcome is simply unexpected. Nalan guard said: "The master said, the preliminary plan is to deduct half of the payment as the capital, and divide the profits into ten shares, half of the emperor, forty percent of the processors, one percent of the operators, Donggui is the operator, and the one percent of the goods is already a lot of profits." The hardest processing is also large. Donggui's business is a small business, and a small capital is also money, you have to spend money to buy goods first, and how much profit you get is earned. It didn't take a little money to sell goods to the house, and it was sold for fifty-eight taels of silver in one day's work, and the novelty of these goods attracted guests, and it is estimated that the cost will not be light. Nalan knew that the one percent of the hard work fee mentioned was not one percent of the fifty-eight taels, but one percent of the net profit after deducting the capital. Then that is to say, half of the capital should be deducted 29 taels, and 29 taels should be taken into 10, 229 cents. This is the hard-earned fee you deserve, is it less? It's just a morning. Two taels of silver is enough for a city's civilian family to spend a month, and a day earns almost a month and a half of silver, how much is a month? If this business can be done for a long time, there is hope for flipping houses.

Donggui's husband is satisfied with his son-in-law in short clothes, but he is not satisfied with his background and family background, and when he comes to look at each other, he frowns when he sees the house, that is, he doesn't look at it. If it weren't for Miss Wen Jing's firm insistence, I'm afraid this family affair would have come to an end.

Only by making more money can we improve the living environment and successfully marry Miss Wen Jing to the family. There have been a lot of people who have proposed to Donggui over the years, but they haven't seen it. It's not that Donggui's eyes are too high, it's that his mother doesn't take a fancy to it. Because it looks like his mother is the one who looks at the female family. Mrs. Nalan is from a big family, so her vision is naturally high, but Eniang is not the kind of snob who climbs high. Let's talk about the sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law, the sister-in-law is the daughter of the grocery store manager, and the mother is very, very dissatisfied with her, but she is very satisfied with the second sister-in-law who grew up in the palace. It can be seen that Eniang is not picking the background of her daughter-in-law, but her character. A few words can tell the true nature of a person. At that time, the old lady told her eldest son that if she wanted to marry the lady of the grocery store, she would have to endure hardships and get angry. Sure enough, the sister-in-law is a mercenary person, and every time her son and three people come back, the house seems to have been ransacked. Not only did they eat and take, but they also had to take away small things when they couldn't see them. And the second sister-in-law grew up in the palace, at least she is superior in understanding the rules. And I can endure hardships, I am also kind-hearted, and I am very filial to the elderly. After marrying the second brother, he had to give his monthly silver to the old lady every month. The second brother's money is all handed over to the family, which is equivalent to the second brother and sister-in-law supporting the family. If it weren't for the fear of having personal contacts in the house, Shui'er would have handed over all the silver to the old lady. As the saying goes, people have to die more than people, and goods have to be thrown away. The strong contrast between the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law made the old lady determined not to look for something she looked down on. Donggui's fiancée, the old lady, has seen her, she is very virtuous, very quiet, and kind to others. Although her father was not an official, he was a famous person. The old lady was very touched by the girl's affection for her son, and said that no matter how difficult it was, she should also make Fucha? Miss Wen Jing married home.

Donggui also likes Fucha Wenjing, this girl's family is very well-established and wealthy. Her own uncle is Shaoqing of Taichang Temple. But she herself has never regarded her uncle as a capital to show off, and she has never mentioned it to Donggui. can look at Donggui, a young man who picks up goods, and Wang Baochuan almost falls in love with Xue Pinggui. Wen Jing, she is really quiet, and she also has a lot of knowledge in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. With shyness. It looks very pleasing to the eye and very heartfelt. Although he has changed his post and made a small decision, Donggui is always afraid of something extraneous, and he can't rest assured that he can't marry home for a while. But marrying the daughter of the old man can't be too shabby, right? So after Donggui became married, he was desperately looking for a job to make money. The second brother and sister-in-law gave themselves such an opportunity to make money, how could they not work hard? Donggui really hopes that the second brother and sister-in-law will fix this opportunity to make money. It doesn't matter if you are a little bitter or tired, you can't let your brother and sister-in-law spend money on marrying you, at least not all. It's another big thing to become a parent. My sister's marriage is different from marrying herself, that is, giving her a dowry, no matter what, she doesn't spend as much as her own marriage. He hated himself for being incapable and making little money. How much he wanted to be able to sell goods to the house for a long time, but the second sister-in-law said that it was temporary, that is, to touch the price. It's depressing to think of this!

The second brother and sister-in-law went back to the house, and Donggui had nothing to sell, so he made furniture for his own marriage at home. People kept asking if there were any new goods, so scared that Donggui hid in the utility room in the backyard and didn't dare to come out.

Shui'er reported to Yun'er about the uncle's sale of goods and handed over the payment to the master. Yun'er looked at Dongguiji's account and knew that the hard money for selling the goods had not been deducted, so she asked Shui'er with a calm face, "What's the matter?" ”

Shui'er was frightened, thinking that something was wrong, and quickly knelt down for Yun'er.

"What are you doing? Say kneel, kneel? I mean, why didn't your uncle just deduct the hardship fee? Get up. ”

"Back to the master, he just helps sell, why is he embarrassed to pay for hard work?"

"You come less! The prince has already said that he will not let the person who contributes no remuneration, you can take these ten taels to your uncle, the first time you sell goods, you will have such a great achievement, give him a whole piece, and you will be paid according to your work in the future. However, according to what you said, our goods are sold so quickly, so we shouldn't pick the goods. It's too hard and it's not safe, it's easy to be robbed and it's easy to get hurt. You ask Nalan to take the time to go home, tell his brother, wait a minute, I want to rent a shop, not necessarily big, just sell some things that are commonly used at home, let Donggui be the shopkeeper, and have two more guys, so that the wind and rain can't be wet. It's safe to guard a shop, I'm really afraid that he will be robbed and injured. ”

Thank you for your compassion and grace. The whole family of the slave and maid remembers the master! Shui'er still kowtowed to Yun'er to express her gratitude.

Strike while the iron is hot, when the prince went to Feiyunlou to see the situation, Yun'er told the prince about Nalan Donggui's sales, and clearly suggested that the prince open a shop for Donggui. The prince agreed immediately, and instructed Tian Liang and Nalan to find a shop facing the street near Nalan's house, rent it, and simply decorate it and start selling goods. He opened a store in the name of Donggui, not only selling the goods in the house, but also selling some of the goods he had sold before. Donggui picks up the goods, and there must be a purchase channel. Don't look at his simple appearance, Nalan said that there are three brothers, and the third is the most shrewd. Especially for accounting, no matter how messy it is under the ears, it will not be distracted, and the small accounts are calculated quickly and accurately.

Tian Liang and Nalan began to prepare to find a house, and Yun'er also had to prepare more goods to be sent to Nalan Donggui's store. The name of the store is really called "Nalan Department Store". If you expand your business in the future, you don't have to change the name of the store. The goods supplied to him are no longer limited to small items.

The news that the Nalan guards and Shui'er got on the bus at the gate of the mansion with the boxes and went home soon spread throughout the mansion, causing a lot of speculation and discussion. Gossip is a common hobby of people, and those rough and low-level subordinates understand that no matter how much they talk about it, it has nothing to do with them. Nalan's guards are the prince's personal guards, and Mama Zhang is serving by Master Yun's side, and both of them are hot characters. What the prince gave and what the cloud master gave, it was all reasonable.

What really attracted attention was the beard next to Fu Jin, who was filled with righteous indignation when he talked to Ji Er about this: "I said that Master Yun wants to trample Fu Jin under his feet, and you don't care." What's so good about that guy who asks for food? Master Yun actually gave her three boxes of things, and the two of them swaggered to send them home, it's too rampant, right? Aren't Nalan guards and Tian guards the same as my family's iron heads? It's because I know how to stutter that I get so many good things. ”

The bun didn't have those complaints, and looked at the man's angry face and said, "You are really a person, listening to the wind is the rain." Do you see people taking things to their homes? ”

"Do you still need to see this? If you send a gift to any house, Tian Liang and Nalan will send it, how can there be such a thing as asking for food? The two of them walked together, presumably home. Fu Jin also said that Master Yun had no personal disadvantages, so he gave everything to his cronies casually, and I was not convinced. ”

The bun smiled "sigh": "What have you served?" Who have you served? It's the cloud master who gives things to Shui'er, and that's also bought with people's own silver, and you can send it to whoever you want, you really have no choice. ”

"It's so annoying, I have to talk to Fu Jin."

"I advise you not to cause trouble, or you will be reprimanded."

As soon as Fu'er heard it, Fujin couldn't afford to provoke Master Yun now, and everything depended on Master Yun. If you think about it carefully, there is nothing wrong with what Fujin is doing, and the things that other people's things are bought with money in exchange for Fujin's position, no matter how high Fujin's status is.

Don't look at Na Feng reprimanding Na Hong, in fact, he is still very awkward in his heart. Nalan took three boxes with two people, and his anger was worse than that of the beard, but the performance was not as obvious as that of the beard. After all, age and experience are different. A few days ago, I suffered a big loss and suffered a lot, and we must converge. He thinks that what Nalan brought home is a gift from the prince, and Nafeng attaches great importance to the gift, and he doesn't particularly want the gift, but he thinks that whoever has more gifts will be valued by the prince. Naturally, Fujin is the first, the cloud master is the second, Mr. Chen is the prince's father-in-law, and Tian Liang gave four boxes because he has rescued the cloud master, which is understandable. Why does Nalan have three boxes of gifts? Listening to the ears and eyes of her subordinates, Mama Ning also got a gift from a box. This made him even more indignant, so he complained to Mama Liu: "You have served in the Fujin room for more than 30 years, why is Ning Taozi?" Yes, I served the prince when I was in Shengjing before, and it was only three or five years, right? Later, it was only three or four years since he defected to the prince, so he crossed over you and Dr. Zhu's family? Or it was a leg with the prince in his early years. ”

"What do you mean to have a leg? It's hard to hear. Do you know that Mama Ning makes two sets of cotton clothes for each of her masters, including the little master, every year? The flowers are all her monthly routines. She was thanking the prince and Fu Jin for their great kindness to her family, otherwise her son would have died unjustly. It's not as dirty as you think. As soon as he saw that Feng's eyes were about to pop out, he sighed and said, "You take gifts too seriously." The gift was bought by the prince, who he wanted to give it to, it was a windfall, could it be that he could count on the gift to live? ”

"No, why are you so confused? It's not that I love a little cheap, the gift is face, and whoever the prince gives more gifts is who he trusts the most. ”

"Then you won't be alive without a gift?"

"I'm not going to mess with you, Cowheart."

"The heart of a cow is stronger than that of a blind heart."

"Hey, who are you talking about? Who is blind? ”

"I mean, you worry too much, think about these things all day, and have the time to sleep and rest."

"So my wife cares about me."

Mama Liu went out without saying anything, she didn't want to see this husband in charge from her heart, and she didn't want to see her more and more.

As he was talking, the guard Gelong came with two personal soldiers to bring gifts to Nafeng. The steward, the medical officer, the cleaner, the leader of the army, the eunuch of good quality, the head of the purchase, the head of the kitchen, etc., these people are all gifts in a box, and they are all packed in a foreign land. It's just that I've been too busy these days to spare time to deliver it.

Nafeng was overjoyed, and hurriedly came out to pick it up, and saw that it was a box, and then asked others to be one, although it was a little less, it was better than nothing, and there was no face without gifts. Moreover, it was not alone that he got a box, and even the other princes and grandfathers of the country were also in the same box, so I was relieved a lot. When it was carried to the hall, it was opened, except for food, it was to wear and play. I didn't worry, I went to Doctor Zhu's house to investigate, and the result was the same, it seems that the prince was not suspicious of himself.
