Chapter 104: Old Fengjun (Third Watch)
Chen Wenhui still knows this, she said: "This is because we need some war horses to graze in the Wa country." Actually, there is a place in the country that is very suitable for grazing. So, we raise horses there. I also bought a lot of Nanyang, right? We also have some places that are very suitable for grazing, so we also have to buy horses, maybe in the future, we will export horses from Nanyang and Wakoku? ”
Ma Mingsong laughed and said: "That's fine, one more production, Shanghai City is more prosperous." ”
All three laughed.
After returning from Ma Mingsong, as soon as he entered Qinghe Building, Shui Lian was busy coming over and said, "Deputy City Lord Wan Shuhui is here, I've been waiting for a while." ”
Chen Wenhui was overjoyed.
Hurriedly rushed inside, only to see that Wan Shuhui had indeed lost a lot of weight, but her spirit was very good, she was sitting upright drinking tea, her beautiful posture with gorgeous jewelry, the most popular clothes, it was really a beautiful lady's picture.
Chen Wenhui hurriedly went up and pulled Wan Shuhui to ask this and that.
Although Wan Shuhui is very familiar with Chen Wenhui and is very happy to see Chen Wenhui, she has not forgotten the etiquette, and first saluted Chen Wenhui and his wife.
Zhao Chongyi has also heard of this Wan Shuhui for a long time, but he has never seen him, but he really saw him this time. Sure enough, she is a beautiful woman, although she is already half old, but she is well maintained, she is not old at all, but has a charm of self-appreciation.
Zhao Chongyi knew that this was Chen Wenhui's henchman, and he didn't dare to slack off, and saluted each other in a proper manner, and Wan Shuhui was also a member of the second grade, and the status of the two sides was equal.
Zhao Chongyi knew that Chen Wenhui and Wan Shuhui had a lot to say, originally these things. Chen Wenhui didn't intend to hide it from him, it didn't hurt for him to just listen. However, now, he has other tasks on his body, and he still has to take a good look at the account book given by Ma Mingsong just now. In addition, his own manpower must be summoned as soon as possible, so that the work can be carried out immediately. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and there is not enough time for it.
Therefore, Zhao Chongyi quit and went to the small study.
Chen Wenhui originally wanted to keep it. But when I think of the account book given by Ma Mingsong, I understand. Zhao Chongyi also had work to do, so she didn't keep it, but just told Shuilian not to forget to pour tea for Zhao Chongyi.
After Zhao Chongyi left. Chen Wenhui began to ask Wan Shuhui what happened after she left.
Wan Shuhui was prepared. Let's talk slowly. first talked about the process of cleaning up the Wang Family Bank, and then said: "Now the Wang Family Bank is falling apart, and the adult men of the Wang family have been beheaded." Only the old, weak, sick and disabled are left, and the princesses in the palace are also frightened, and they dare not intercede with the Wang family. Now that we have been busy for a while, we have preliminarily decided on the charter, and we have expanded so much at once, and the bank's business has increased a lot. However, this will take some time to digest. I've already set the rules and staff, so there shouldn't be any problems. Speaking of which, this time it was so smooth, and the son of the Huzhou Thorn Shi left by the county lord really helped a lot. I think he's a real talent. With him following the county lord to the northwest, I will be relieved. I'd better go back to Nanyang to help the county lord guard Nanyang. ”
Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "I knew you would do it well." Now it's all right. We're the only family. Save the hassle. Yan Shupeng is indeed a talent. Since you are also optimistic about him, it means that my vision is still good. I think it's a good experience for him to do this, so that when we go to the Northwest in the future, he can get started a little faster. It's you, it's really emaciated, it must be very hard. “
Wan Shuhui said: "It's not hard. It's just a little rush. Here in Jiangnan, I used to be a financial officer here in Shanghai, so my former colleagues are still willing to give face. Huzhou is the foundation of the Xiao Chen family, and Yan Shupeng helps, and Heyang Prefecture has the help of the Bai family, so it is all smooth. ”
Chen Wenhui thought about it for a while and said, "That is also the result of your strategizing in the middle." By the way, there's one more thing to tell you. ”
Wan Shuhui hurriedly asked what was going on.
Chen Wenhui briefly talked about their trip to southern Xinjiang this time, and did not mention the treasure. However, I also listened to Wan Shuhui with relish.
After speaking, Chen Wenhui said: "Trade with southern Xinjiang is about to be. We celebrate Spring City, Nanyang will be the main force, and Shanghai City will also open business lines. I hope that when you return to Nanyang, you will arrest this matter. Another thing is that when I was in southern Xinjiang, I found that the nobles in southern Xinjiang like to use our Dachu silver tickets when they trade in large denominations and gamble. Come to think of it, it was brought over by a merchant from Dachu. With this foundation, it should be easy for us to open a bank branch in southern Xinjiang. This will be covered by the Mu Li Gongzi I brought from southern Xinjiang to cover our business in southern Xinjiang. ”
This Wan Shuhui said very emotionally: "Opening a semicolon in southern Xinjiang is a good thing, and I will personally catch this matter." It just so happens that I want to go back to Nanyang, why don't I go to Nanjiang first, open a semicolon, and then go back to Nanyang? ”
Chen Wenhui said: "That's fine. By the way, in addition to this matter, I also told the queen about recruiting people from southern Xinjiang. ”
After speaking, he talked about the relationship between the six major tribes in southern Xinjiang and the Qin people, and said: "The queen and their tribes have a large number of captives in their hands, and these people, they don't want them, they want to exchange them for real money." We needed exactly that. I bought it. Also, the six major tribes don't want the most populous Qin people to sit big, so this time, when recruiting people, they will try to call the Qin people over. We actually just want the Qin people. These are our brothers and sisters of the same clan. When the time comes, the stewards of the Qin people firm will also help us. We should be able to recruit a lot of people. ”
Wan Shuhui smiled and said, "It's all good news." There is no shortage of territory, no army, no shortage of silver in southern Xinjiang, and the most important thing is the people. This time we recruited a lot from Gangnam, and more than half of them were. If some of them are recruited from southern Xinjiang, then it should be enough, maybe enough for the next city. ”
Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "The more we have, the better." ”
Wan Shuhui said: "Then I should go to southern Xinjiang." Okay, I'm ready, and I'm going to go. The matter of Da Chu is almost over. It doesn't do much use to stay either. ”
Chen Wenhui hurriedly said: "It's really hard for you, if you don't have you in southern Xinjiang, I really don't feel at ease." “
Wan Shuhui smiled and said, "Didn't I get benefits? My little aunt is desperate, if she hadn't been saved by the county lord, where would she still be alive now, and where would she still be an official? Can you still be so beautiful and bring out our entire family? “
Speaking of this, Chen Wenhui remembered something and said: "You are not young, are you thinking about finding a suitable person, you can't be lonely like this for a lifetime?" ”
Speaking of this, Wan Shuhui smiled bitterly and said, "After experiencing what I have done before, how dare you still find a man?" Besides, what man can accept the things that I used to do. What I can accept is for my current fame and fortune, and I don't like it. Alas, I don't want to look for it either, I'm fine now. It's just that there is no successor. I've thought about it, though. I think your master Wu Lixia's method is very good. The two children she has now stepped, they have grown up very well, and in two years, the eldest boy will be able to marry a wife, I heard that Wu Lixia has been looking at girls recently, alas, Wu Lixia can also be a mother-in-law and live the life of an old feudal king. That's what I want. You know, I have a lot of money now, even if I can raise a hundred children. ”
Chen Wenhui couldn't help but laugh when she heard this.
Wan Shuhui also smiled and said, "Of course, you can't really raise a hundred children." What's going on? I imagined Wu Lixia studying and stepping into two children, preferably a boy and a girl. I raised myself from a young age. Naturally, they will follow me in the future. When I am old, I will be served, cared for, and full of children and grandchildren. ”
This is a correct reason, in fact, as long as you have money, there is no way.
And Wan Shuhui, who is a wealthy man, has a lot of silver, so Chen Wenhui is no longer worried about her, and said: "Since you have made up your mind, let's act quickly." This looks at the child, reports over, goes to the family tree, and upbringing, it is not a trivial matter, nor is it an overnight thing, do it early, and be an old feudal monarch like my master in the future. ”
Wan Shuhui laughed eating, as if thinking that she would be an old feudal monarch in the future, and she couldn't help but agree with Chen Wenhui's words. Looks like this is going to be rushed. It is best to do it as soon as you are busy with the affairs of southern Xinjiang and Nanyang.
Then Chen Wenhui and Wan Shuhui chatted for a while, and Wan Shuhui said goodbye and went back.
Chen Wenhui felt a little tired, and called Shui Lian to ask, "How is the second master?" ”
Shui Lian hurriedly said: "The second master is still looking at the account book, I poured tea, put fruits and snacks on the table." The second master asked me to come back to serve the county lord. He also told me that if he came late, please freshen up and rest first. I'm too tired today. ”
After saying this, Chen Wenhui felt even more tired, so she asked Shui Lian and Shui Hong to support her to freshen up, soak in a medicinal bath, wash her hair, and after being busy for a while, Chen Wenhui felt energetic again. At this time, Zhao Chongyi finally came back from the study.
Chen Wenhui looked at Zhao Chongyi's tired appearance with some distress, and hurriedly called the maids to serve Zhao Chongyi to freshen up.
Zhao Chongyi smiled and said, "Don't be so troublesome, ask Shuilian to prepare water, and I'll take a medicinal bath for a while." Today is tiring, but it is also very rewarding. I'm already feeling a little clue. ”
Chen Wenhui knew that this should be the credit of the account book. (To be continued......)
