Here, the Sun family worked hard to get the two daughters to say, and hurriedly reported to Xu Zhijie, one of the husband and wife found an opportunity to see the assassination history, and the other hurriedly made jewelry and cut clothes for Baozhu, and they were in full swing to prepare.

In the Thorn Shi Mansion, the fifth aunt is about twenty years old, just like a flower in full bloom, at this time she is taking a sip of tea, and there is a maid standing next to her with her head down.

The fifth aunt thought for a moment: "You mean, the eighth aunt's mother has entered the mansion and wants to let the eighth aunt's sister come in too, right?" ”

The maid raised her head, smiled and said, "Yes, Fifth Auntie, I eavesdropped on this." As soon as Aunt Eight's mother left, I hurried to report it. ”

The fifth aunt's face was faint, and she said to her maid: "Xiaoxiang has a heart, you go to the gold ring in the clip and give it to her." Xiaoxiang, your hands are white and tender, and they look good to wear. ”

This maid is the pearl's personal maid Xiaoxiang, at this moment she heard that there was a gold ring to wear, she was very excited, and she kowtowed to thank her.

The fifth aunt's maid Cuiyun waited for Xiaoxiang to leave, pouted and said, "This is still the maid girl of the official eunuch's family, it's really a joke." The girl is stingy and domineering, the maid is shallow-eyed, and the mother of the eighth aunt is also a person who doesn't know what to say, and she actually wants her two daughters to work together as a husband, which is really unexpected. Fifth aunt, this kind of person, why do we take care of her? ”

The fifth aunt said faintly: "The eighth aunt's mother was born by an aunt, and she was corrected later, what good can she teach, but I laugh at her, what am I?" I'm a serious girl, I grew up with fine clothes and food, what is the result? Daddy didn't send me here and become an aunt, what's the point? ”

Cuiyun hurriedly said: "Fifth aunt, don't say this, you are doing this for the family, besides, we are fine now, there is no lady in this assassin's mansion, and the fifth aunt will come from behind and take charge of the house's internal affairs." Everyone outside respectfully calls you the Fifth Lady? Although Lord Thorn Shi loves freshness and keeps entering new people, you are always the first, and no one can go beyond you, besides, which person in this house can manage the housework with you? At this point, the lord also said, you are better than the lady of Kyori. ”

The fifth aunt snorted coldly: "It's better than Madame, and it's not Madame, what's the point." But what you're saying is that we're having a good time now. But if Aunt Eight's sister comes in. But it's not good. Perhaps, the two sisters have taken away all of our housekeepers' rights. Well, this matter needs to be planned carefully. I won't make a move, if I want to make a move, let Aunt Seven's idiot go. Cuiyun. You go to Aunt Seven's maid and tell her the news. ”

Cuiyun understood, and hurriedly agreed to go out.

Cuiyun left, a trace of ruthlessness flashed on the fifth aunt's charming face, and in an instant, she turned into a virtuous lady again, drinking tea slowly.

After the Chen Mansion was lively here, they began to entertain the officials and rich gentry of Deqing Mansion who came to congratulate him. Chen Yuanheng and his wife are very good at being people, and they are good at socializing, and soon, the officials and rich gentry of Deqing Mansion are saying good things about Chen Zhifu. The Bai clan also made friends with many officials and the wives and girls of wealthy merchants, plus the victims of the disaster have returned to their hometowns, the war in the north has ended, and Deqing Mansion has returned to prosperity, so. These upper-class ladies began to have tea again, enjoy flowers, and watch plays. Bai's daily entertainment is not leaky, and he can also take time to take care of housework, which makes Wen Hui, Mingzhu, and even Hu Shi admire the five-body landing.

In a blink of an eye, it's almost June, and Wen Hui's birthday is approaching. Wen Hui will be eight years old after her birthday, and Wen Hui has been here for more than two years. In the past two months, the Chen family has developed rapidly. In the past, the Chen family not only contributed to the rescue of the victims this time, but also contributed money, probably spending more than 200,000 taels of silver, but the return was very fast. Because most of the Chen family spent money on inviting women to do needlework this time, Ancheng and Deqing two points to help the victims, a total of more than 30,000 taels of silver were spent on making clothes alone, and more than 5,000 people were resettled, and the cost of clothing accounted for the majority, about 200,000 taels, and the clothes made were piled up. Fortunately, the Bai family bought a lot of land, yards, and shops next to the market before, which came in handy this time, and they were all used to pile up clothes.

Of course, in addition to about 100,000 taels of silver, the more than 200,000 taels of silver are the Chen family's own, and the more than 100,000 taels are borrowed from the bank by the Chen family. Now most of the victims are gone, the five counties of Deqing have returned to normal life, and the Chen family has opened ready-to-wear shops in the remaining four counties, and the rest of the counties have heard of the reputation of Cuijinlou before, and even some ladies have gone to Deqing City to buy clothes from Cuijinlou, as well as those merchants, some of them also go to Ancheng or Deqing Cuijinlou to get the goods, and now Cuijinlou has opened a branch, and the demand has opened up all of a sudden, and the sales are very fast, and the clothes piled up in the warehouse are also going down quickly.

There is also a branch opened in the provincial city of Qingyang, because of the large population of Qingyang City, so the market is also larger, and the sales volume is also very large, and the people at this time are also the same as the people of Wen Hui's previous life, like fashion trends, many noblewomen from the surrounding counties of Qingyang go to Qingyang City to buy clothes in order to catch up with the fashion, which makes the sales of Qingyang City greater.

In this way, in the more than two months after the victims left, half of the ready-to-wear piled up in Cuijinlou was sold out at once. Of course, this is because there was a lot of demand in the market before, and it was impossible to sell so much in the next few months. Even so, it was enough for the Chen family to repay the account of more than 100,000 taels of silver that they had borrowed before.

In this way, the Chen family is equivalent to pasting the 100,000 taels they earned before. In fact, in the hearts of the Chen family and his wife, spending 200,000 taels to get a good reputation, and letting the emperor personally reward him is definitely earned. Now, not only have 200,000 taels been recovered, but it seems that there will still be a surplus.

Of course, now the old accounts of the Chen family have been repaid, in order to open branches in the four counties and Qingyang City, that is, the branches of Cuijinlou and Restaurant, they have borrowed 150,000 taels of silver, after all, the price of land in the provincial capital is expensive.

On this day, Chen Yuanheng was discussing this loan with Chen Wenhui, Bai, and the two Chen brothers. Chen Yuanheng said: "Now that we are in the old account, and the new account is coming again, what do you think?" ”

Chen Wenjun said: "Fortunately, the bank gives us the lowest interest rate in the loan, and with the speed of making money in our restaurant and Cuijin Building, we will never lose money." ”

Chen Yuanheng said: "It's not enough to lose money, but I want to import and pay back the money, what else do I have to do next?" ”

Bai Shi was surprised: "What else do you have to do?" ”

Chen Yuanheng said: "I still want to open a restaurant and a cuijin building in the capital." The price of the capital is too high, and it can't be solved by 100,000 taels of silver. I conservatively estimate that it will be 300,000 taels. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "Father, you are now in such a hurry to open a restaurant in the capital, open a cuijin building, our power is not up to the capital, our current strength is still weak." ”

Chen Yuanheng said: "What Hui'er said is very subtle, that is, the current official is still too young for his father, and he is a magistrate, not a Beijing official." ”

Chen Wenhui smiled embarrassedly, thinking secretly, Dad is too shrewd, and he understood at once. What a human spirit.

Chen Yuanheng said with a smile: "Actually, my official is too young now. I am the first in Deqing City, the prefect of the fifth grade, in charge of the people in five counties and six places in one prefecture, but it is too small compared with the first and second grades in the capital. However, now that my holy family is good, the emperor has personally written for me? Also, I have the Chen family behind me. Although the Chen family has declined in recent years, the Chen family is a big family that has existed since the founding of the country, and the camel that was killed is bigger than the horse. ”

Chen Wenjun said at this time: "But, father, the government has always ignored us. ”

Bai Shi also said: "Yes, master, can the house manage us?" ”

Chen Yuanheng said: "You don't know this, because this time I showed my face in the resettlement of the victims, the patriarch personally wrote a letter to me, and my father also came with a secret letter. It seems that my father and eldest sister have any plans, now is the time to use me, I will open a branch in the capital at this time, and my family will definitely support it. ”

Bai's face was strange: "When the master said this, I remembered, I actually received a letter from my Bai family a few days ago, it was a letter written by the wife of the head of the Bai family, although there was nothing in the letter, just greetings and concerns, but I was strange, because I was a concubine before I got married, the patriarch's wife didn't even look at me." ”

Chen Yuanheng said: "This is the poor in the downtown and no one asks, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains." These people are all looking at the emperor's face. ”

Bai said: "If this is the case, we can open a restaurant and a cuijin building in the capital." With the backing of the Chen family and the Bai family, the restaurant can still be opened. ”

Chen Yuanheng smiled mysteriously: "There is also a backing." ”

At this time, Chen Wenjun thought about it for a while, and suddenly said, "I know, Princess Lichuan." ”

Chen Yuanheng was very pleased: "Jun'er is growing up very much now." I thought of it so quickly, and it was really a benefit for Lian Daren to please. ”

Now everyone understood, Chen Wenhui became excited: "This is good, opening a branch in Qingyang City, the business is twice as much as other branches, if you open a branch in the capital, you will not be more profitable." ”

Chen Yuanheng laughed: "Hui'er is thinking about money. Of course, I also want to make money, but I need to get comprehensive news from the capital. Although our family has left some family members in the capital, these are all subordinates, and we can only know the news circulating among the subordinates, and there will be no more. So I want to open a restaurant in the capital and open a cuijin building, so that we can know more about the news in the capital. ”

Now everyone understands. The current Chen Mansion is not what it used to be, and now Chen Yuanheng's goal is a higher official position, which requires the help of the officials in the capital, so it is imperative to open a branch in the capital. But this silver problem is the big problem. Although you can still borrow from the bank, the ancient people were still not used to loans, and now the old account has not been repaid, and it is estimated that Chen Yuanheng will not borrow the new account.
