129. Qin State Grain Warehouse
Mama Qiu was speechless about the panic of her young lady, this is all to blame on the lady, the lady always said that the young lady is not married to the eldest son of the Shangguan Mansion, she doesn't have to take care of the housework, and these mundane affairs don't need to be learned, so that now the young lady is frightened by a country woman.
"Young lady, the young master and the master's monthly silver is not enough for the expenses in the house, but we have a Zhuangzi and a shop in the Shangguan Mansion, and these can make money, so you don't have to worry," Mama Qiu explained in a calm tone, sighing in her heart for this Ying Niangzi.
Don't look at her as a little peasant woman, there are quite a lot of things to know.
"Ying Niangzi, you have heard what Mama Qiu said, do you still want to borrow so much silver?" Mei regained his composure, looked at her and asked, but his heart turned a thousand times, thinking that he was not even as good as a woman.
I really can't tell you, Yan Lian slandered in her heart, but her face was serious, "Young lady, the Shangguan Mansion has a big family, a big business, and the more you pay, and the more you take back, the business of this shop is unstable, there are ups and downs, and the crops in the Zhuangzi need to look at the face of God, so you don't understand these things, or wait for the young master Shangguan to come back, and then let the little woman discuss with him!?" ”
She dared to guarantee that even if she said a lot, the young lady would still not understand, rather than wasting saliva, it was better to be in place at one time and wait for Shangguan Hao to come back.
was despised, Mei's mouth was deflated, and he was a little aggrieved.
"Okay then," Actually, Mei Shi was furious and drove her out of Lu, but she felt that she didn't understand this at all, and if she really drove Ying Niangzi out of Lu, it wouldn't prove that she was weak-hearted, so she could only answer sullenly, "Mama Qiu, nod your head with tea and water for Ying Niangzi, you can also sit down, I don't know when Young Master Lu Dao will come back,"
"Thank you, Mrs. Shao," Yan Lian was full of affection for Mei's family, feeling that she was not the kind of willful and unreasonable lady. According to the usual unreasonableness, no matter what you say, it is inevitable to scold yourself first.
"Has the young lady been sleeping hard at night lately!?" The atmosphere was a little awkward, Yan Lian wanted to find a topic, so she raised her head and glanced at Mei seriously, but saw that the powder rubbed on her face couldn't cover the bags under her eyes, so she asked curiously.
"Yes, did Mama Qiu tell you?" Mei Shi looked at her and said very depressedly: "Every time I am about to fall asleep, I will feel that the child is crying, and the feeling of being drowsy and unable to sleep is really ......painful,"
"Hehe, that's the young lady's first mother, and she has children in her eyes, so she can't let go of it in her heart, which is also human nature," this at least proves that Mei is a good mother, not that kind of ruthless.
"That's what my mother said, it's just that I can't sleep well at night, and my face is ugly," she said, and her hand touched her face, feeling so rough, and her heart was even more depressed. "This face is even more ugly than when I was in confinement,"
Every woman loves beauty, including Yan Lian, but it's a pity that she doesn't have the life to maintain it. "If the young lady feels that she can't sleep well at night, she can try boiling pork fat with mung beans,"
"Mung bean lard?" Mei's face flashed with disgust, and he said a little unhappily: "This lard is so greasy, how can you eat it when you cook it with mung beans!?" ”
"Hehe, the young lady doesn't know what to say, this lard is greasy, but it is boiled with mung beans, that is, there is a layer of oil flowers floating on it, and the lard will not melt completely, so please rest assured, and when it is done, put sugar on it, it tastes excellent!" This thing was eaten in her previous life, and it is good for constipation and not being able to sleep at night, and the effect of eating it in summer is better.
"Really?" Seeing that what she said was the Tao, and she took care of her own confinement at the beginning, she hesitated and shouted: "Someone,"
"Young lady," the maid came over and saluted.
"Go to the kitchen and let people boil mung bean soup and cook lar......d," she glanced at Ying Niangzi, and when she saw that she was proportioned, she ordered: "Then the lard can be put as much as half a palm, don't put too much, understand?" ”
"Yes, the slave and maid will go at once," the maid received the command, and turned away.
With the topic just now, Mei asked a lot of questions that he didn't understand, Yan Lian answered carefully about those who knew the way, and honestly admitted that the two of them had found a common topic.
"Young lady, the young master is back," Mama Qiu has been waiting for news outside, and after getting the young master's answer, she hurried back and said: "The old slave said about Ying Niangzi, and the young master said that he would go to the old master for a while, and then come over,"
"Hmm," Mei nodded, and the corresponding lady was even more curious.
As soon as Shangguan Hao heard Ying Niangzi say that he wanted to borrow 10,000 taels of silver, his eyes widened and he sneered: "Ying Niangzi's heart is really not small, this 10,000 taels of silver is not a small amount, I don't know the confidence of Ying Niangzi?" He knew that this little lady had some scheming, but he didn't expect her to be so scheming that she opened her mouth for ten thousand taels of silver.
Yan Lian didn't take Shangguan Hao's dissatisfaction to heart, because of the identity swap, maybe she was more intense than Shangguan Hao.
"Today...... I'm afraid I can't get 10,000 taels of cash in the Shangguan Mansion, right!? Yan Lian avoided Shangguan Hao's questioning, a smile on the corner of her mouth, and asked softly.
As soon as her words came out, the faces of the people in the room changed, except for Shangguan Hao, the rest of the people's faces were a little ugly, especially Mei's, the anger in his eyes was about to erupt.
"Why did Mrs. Ying say that?" Shangguan Hao's original aura has changed, and Mei is his pillow person, so he naturally knows his changes.
"Shangguan's Mansion is big, there are many people, but not all shops and Zhuangzi can make money, some are counted as two-thirds of the silver-earners, and that layer not only does not make money, but also loses money, plus the Shangguan Mansion has a big business, and the expenses for a year, needless to say, the young master Shangguan must also be clear," Yan Lian said seriously, but the expression on her face was innocent.
Shangguan Hao's heart was shocked, thinking if the person in the house had leaked the secret, she had calculated so clearly.
"In that case, why does Ying Niangzi still open this mouth?" Should I say she's smart or stupid?
"Hehe......," Yan Lian straightened her back and chuckled: "The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and Young Master Shangguan can't take out 10,000 taels of silver for a while, but as long as you make do with it, it's a matter of minutes!" Although she analyzed it clearly, she also knew that Shangguan Mansion was an old family in the capital, and it was deep-rooted, and if she couldn't take out 10,000 taels, could she still mix it up in the capital?
No one answered, and the air was filled with Yan Lian's ethereal chuckle, when Mei and Mama Qiu thought that the young master was going to be angry and angry, they heard him sigh softly and said: "Ying Niangzi is not from the capital, but she knows the things in the capital, which is really admirable!" Okay, as long as the lady says the conditions that satisfy the young master, this 10,000 taels of silver, the young master is in charge, and I borrow it! ”
"Young master," Mei and Mama Qiu shouted out in unison, feeling very bottomless.
Yan Lian smiled at them, and then looked at Shangguan Hao to restrain the smile on his face, his expression was serious, the originally slightly humble temperament disappeared in a flash, and the whole person emerged with an atmosphere of being on an equal footing with Shangguan Hao, that temperament made everyone a little surprised, especially Mei, she swore that she couldn't do that.
The hand, placed on the sandalwood table, knocked gently, made a "tuk-tuk" sound, and knocked into the hearts of everyone.
"The little woman has two methods, one is that the young master Shangguan directly borrowed 10,000 taels of silver from the little woman, and the little woman helped any loss-making shop of the Shangguan family to come back to life and earn back more than 10,000 taels of silver, since then, no matter what the little woman does with the 10,000 taels of silver, the Shangguan family has no right to interfere. The second is ......,"
"What is two?" Shangguan Hao held his breath and asked eagerly, he always felt that the second condition would completely change the Shangguan family, so he couldn't calm down at all.
"The second is that the little woman took 10,000 taels of silver to do something, and the first object of business is Shangguan Mansion," Shangguan Hao is anxious, so the initiative of this business is in his own hands.
No matter what kind of business you do, it's like bargaining, whoever regresses first loses. The same goes for doing business!
"Ying Niangzi might as well talk about it, what are you going to do with this 10,000 taels of silver?" Generally, even if it is a business, a few thousand taels of silver will reach the sky, unless you want to meddle in the business of the capital - but the business of the capital is not so easy to do, and the silver of 10,000 taels has no backer, just a passerby.
"Buy land, grow grain!" As long as he takes the silver, Shangguan Hao will definitely send someone to monitor it, so there is no need to hide it.
"Buy land to grow grain?" Shangguan Hao was stunned for a moment, and asked in a lost voice, "How much land is this?" ”
"The entire land of Guquan Village," Yan Lian said calmly, not feeling how big her heart was at all.
The crowd was stunned, "What do you want so much land for?" I can't plant it again! "Even if you don't understand mundane things, Mei knows that the land bought for more than 10,000 taels of silver will definitely not be small.
Guquan Village, she has been there, of course, she knows how big that village is.
"Don't worry about this, Young Master Shangguan, the entire Guquan Village will definitely become the grain warehouse of the entire Qin State in the future, if you believe in the little woman, this business is still easy for us to do, if you don't believe in the little woman, the little woman will think of something else," the methods were all forced out.
If it really doesn't work, then she will stop planting grain this year, and wait until she earns enough 10,000 taels of silver this year, and then plant grain next year - anyway, she will not be someone else's wedding dress.
Qin's grain base...... This sentence knocked deeply on Shangguan Hao's heart. He was an official, and he naturally knew that food was the most important thing for the Qin State.
"Please wait a while, this matter, Young Master Rong Ben will go and discuss it with his father, "If it is only a business of 10,000 taels, he can call the shots, but this is very important, he has to ask his father what he means."
"Please," Yan Lian did not refuse, and the matter itself would attract attention.
Shangguan Hao went to Master Shangguan's study quickly, and he came once when he came back, so when Master Shangguan saw him coming again, he couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Hao'er, is there anything else?" ”
"Father," Shangguan Hao entered the study, sent the people who were waiting inside, and personally walked to the door to say a few words, then closed the door cautiously, and said in a serious tone: "There is something, my son wants to discuss it with you,"
"What's the matter?" Seeing that he was so cautious, Master Shangguan couldn't help but ask a little seriously.
This closing advice is because I don't want to be heard by outsiders, which shows the size of the matter.
Living in the capital, the family has a big business, and no one dares to guarantee whether it is your own person, so only when discussing important matters will you be cautious.
Shangguan Hao told his father what Ying Yanlian said one by one, and also told him about the fresh ginger - he didn't dare to say anything about it, now it's almost the season of fresh ginger planting, even if he says it, his father won't care. What's more, Shangguan Mansion never thought of getting involved in this.
"Is it really from the hand of this little lady?" After knowing the cause and effect of the Dao, Master Shangguan asked with a shocked face.
"Yes, as early as two months before the departure of our army, she had already guessed the result, so she deliberately explained to Beichenqing at that time, "This woman is becoming more and more difficult."
Master Shangguan sat on the chair, habitually touched the armrest with his hand, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Fresh ginger can be grown, which shows that this Ying Niangzi has some ability to farm...... This 10,000 taels of silver, although the house can't take it for a while, you can borrow it from Beichen Ao, and then let's move it, and 10,000 taels of silver can be moved! ”
"Father, that's what I said, but this business matter, after all, we are not ...... strong point," this is the reason why he has been hesitating.
"Don't worry, food is a good thing everywhere, if Shangguan Mansion can't eat it, give it to Beichen Ao, he will swallow it no matter how much," For this, Master Shangguan was not worried at all.
If Beichen is arrogantly known, will the Shangguan Mansion still allow the intervention in this matter?
With Master Shangguan's words, Yan Lian was agreed to very smoothly, and the condition was the second one she proposed - Shangguan Hao put forward another condition, if she didn't have enough food and couldn't pay back the 10,000 taels of silver, then all the land she bought would become Shangguan's mansion.
Although the last point was more harsh, Yan Lian still nodded. On the surface, it seems to be unfavorable to her, but the worst result is that she worked in vain and did not lose anything, after all, the silver is not her own.
She can only fight hard, otherwise, even if she succeeds, there is no benefit for herself. However, Shangguan Hao has his requirements, and she also has her requirements.
Since Shangguan Hao wants to get involved in this matter, then there is a favor, he must help, that is, to buy the land of Guquan Village, she must go out from Shangguan Mansion, otherwise she will be drowned by the spittle of the villagers.
The people of Guquan Village do not necessarily sell land, that is the root of their livelihood. Shangguan Hao had no confidence, but after listening to Yan Lian's plan, his eyes lit up and he admired it very much.
