The Wang family also trusted Mama Rong to be the housekeeper, and the first thing Mama Rong did as a housekeeper was to discuss with the Wang family to invite a servant.

Wang was startled: "What? Servant, please, this will not work, will it? ”

"Surely it will be pleased, ma'am! And, madam, with all due respect, it's not good to be a housekeeper like you are now, I've been living in the house these days, and I know that you may have been a farmer in the past, but, after all, your identity is different now, and many things are best to follow the local customs! As the saying goes, a virtuous wife and a husband have few misfortunes, which means that the virtuous wife is also very important! Madame, don't underestimate communication, these things, Madame has to learn. However, for the time being, no one has invited Madame, these things can be done slowly, now, the most important thing is to have servants, this house can be managed well, and the rules must be set up, Ding is Ding, riveting is riveting! Mama Rong said.

Wang was stunned and said, "This, this, what should I do?" I don't understand anything, Mama! Wang made Mama a little flustered.

Mama Rong also saw it and comforted: "Madam, it's okay, just take your time, we have to choose a servant first!" In fact, the main thing is that this courtyard is not small, and a few slaves and maids are needed, and secondly, a few old women are needed, and the lord must at least have a small house, as well as a concierge, all of these people must be had, and they can't be sloppy, if the lord has visitors, these are the faces of the lord! If you don't do it well, you will be ridiculed. ”

Wang couldn't help but say uneasily: "I don't understand any of this, Mama, do you understand?" ”

"Well, if Madame believes me, listen to me! There are also some etiquettes of the lady to be learned, and the tone of speech cannot be the same as before, not to dislike the lady. It doesn't matter in your own home, it's a face in front of outsiders. Mama Rong said, and then, Mama Rong groaned and said, "Madam, in the past few days in the house, I also found out that Madame seems to be doing some business, right?" Xiaoqing, but they are mainly in business? Saying that, she was also worried that the Wang family would be too careful, so Mama Rong said: "The main thing is that it is for the family in the house." There is also the unclear positioning of each person, and I am prone to misarrangement. ”

In fact, Wang will not be too careful, Wang is not a fool, and his words are beautiful. said that Mama Rong was treated as a relative, but there was also a premise that Mama Rong was harmless to them. for their good. If not, why do they treat Mama Rong as a relative, and how do these trusts come from? Naturally, I have to keep an observation mind, and Mama Rong can feel how good or bad they are!

So, for Mama Rong's words. The Wang family naturally felt that Mama Rong was kind to them, so they pointed out this, although the time to come to the capital was short, but the light was the cleaning of the courtyard. It has already made the Wang family anxious, thinking that Mama Rong is proficient in these, and she can't see it, so she will bring it up with kindness.

Of course, if Mama Rong really has any bad intentions, with Wang's current ability, that is, the ability to learn in the future, I can't see it, but fortunately, Mama Rong is really kind, when she was in the palace before, she was the queen's housekeeper, so she is easy to do with these affairs.

Wang said: "Well, Mama is right, we have this plan, we can't sit and eat empty, we are planning to find some livelihood, but I don't know if Mama Lu Dao can understand the power of the capital, and we don't know if Lu Dao will hinder the interests of some people when we do business." As for the family background, two or three thousand taels, there are still some, I don't know how much, this is a lot? ”

Mama Rong pondered for a while, and said: "Madame is reasonable, in this case, the residence does not need to be anywhere else in the row of houses behind, the gardener wants one, the gatehouse is one, and there must be at least two small servants in the outer courtyard, one is in charge of the study, one is in charge of the living room, and four guards, then there are five people who clean the yard, and there are three rough envoys in the inner courtyard, one in each courtyard, and two rough envoys in the outer courtyard, and one for the slaves, one for the lady and one for the young lady, well, and the cook, I can't let my wife cook by herself all the time, so let's find a cook. That's all for now. ”

Wang was dumbfounded when he heard this: "This, why do you need so many people?" How many are there? Isn't it twelve? So much? Oh my God, you can't afford it, right? ”

Rong Mama groaned for a while, too, although in her own opinion it is already less, but in the Wang family's eyes they are still too much, or they will make the mother-in-law lose two, but, the cook, with the concierge must be, the four guards must not be less, this safety issue must be taken seriously, or find one, let him be in charge of the study, usually in the living room, let the rough mother-in-law clean up.

As soon as Mama Rong said this, Wang's flesh ached: "This, you don't need so many people, right?" Even if it is reduced like this, there will be nine more to invite, will it be too much? ”

"Madam, this is already a few, in fact, Madame should think about it, our courtyard is so big, these children alone naturally can't manage it, so these people must be invited, in fact, I think if you invite nine, it is better to invite twelve, this is still a few, if there is a banquet or something, you have to invite special servants to do these things. That's more. Mama Rong said.

Wang wanted to show that he was very generous and had a big belly, but he couldn't help but twist his face and ask Mama Rong: "Mama, how much does it cost to invite these people?" ”

"Well, in fact, this is the upfront cost is higher, but, twelve people don't need much money, more than a hundred taels of silver, the future salary, in fact, is also the owner's final say, if you buy some dead deeds, although the salary is more expensive, but even if you don't pay the salary, it's okay, as long as you are responsible for these people's two meals and clothes!" Rong Mama said.

Don't give money to do things? Wang's face couldn't help but distort again, these statements completely subverted Wang's cognition, in the past, Wang knew that some big families would indeed hire people to work, but they never knew that there was such a thing? Don't have to pay to do things? This kind of thing is too cheap.

These things that Wang is listening to Mama Rong say now are really like listening to heavenly books, and many things have not been accessible before.

In fact, after having Mama Rong, the Wang family really doesn't know how many detours Lu Dao has taken.

Wang couldn't help but murmur: "Mama, can you let me think about it, well, let me ask Xiaoya!" "Finished. Wang Shi reacted, and said in disguise: "I'll ask Xiaoya and his father!" It's too big to be the master. ”

Rong Mama is quite in favor of Wang's approach, after all, Wang Ya's performance is too demonic and not good, like the daughter of the famous first-class member in the capital, I heard that she often invents this invention and that, and competes with the people for profit, she can't help but shake her head, now I can't see the consequences, and I will wait until I want to get married in the future. will find the problem, who would like to marry such a woman in a really good family?

Therefore, Mama Rong also thought that she didn't hear it, and said directly: "Hmm." Madam, I still want to say that. In the future, it will not matter if the lady is in her own home. If it is in front of outsiders, it is better to call the master the master, and no longer have children and fathers, and the little girl and his father are called! It's called intimacy at home, and if you're in front of the outside, it's easy to be laughed at! Miss's words. For example, if a guest comes, you want to ask the lady to accompany the guest, and the lady can call someone to shout. So he said, "Go and call the young lady." ”

Mama Rong said this several times, and now she doesn't understand anything, and she is eager to learn something, don't you remember it firmly, nodding violently to show that she knows what she knows, and muttered to herself: "Master, madam, miss?" Go and call the young lady over!? The Wang family didn't want to be embarrassed in front of Mama Rong anymore, his face was quite calm, and he actually shouted in his heart: Heavenly evil, he will be called Mrs. one day?

Mama Rong nodded: "That's right, it's such a lady." At first, Madame may be a little unaccustomed to it, but then she will slowly get used to it. ”

In fact, in Mama Rong's opinion, many things in the Wang family have to be changed, and there are many loopholes in this family, but if you want to change it from the beginning, it is not so easy, you have to come step by step, and now, you can only temporarily maintain the brilliance outside.

Then, Mama Rong said, "As for business? I don't know what kind of business Mrs. Lu Dao plans to do, but can I tell it, so that I can know whether Lu Dao will offend the interests of some people. ”

For these interpersonal relationships, Mama Rong really doesn't have to be humble, she can pack a ticket and say that she can be like a number of family treasures, especially the higher the level, the more she knows.

Of course, Mama Rong's ability is naturally more than that, in the days to come, Wang and Wang Ya will find out that they really took in a treasure, no, it should be said, Mama Rong, that is a treasure, or can't be excavated!

Wang pondered for a while, there should be nothing that can't be said about this thing, so Wang said: "Actually, it's very simple, we plan to make some food!" Then, Wang talked about the businesses of the ramen restaurant and the Hakka inn, and then talked about the newly bought house to see what Mama Rong thought.

Mama Rong pondered for a moment and said, "If it is according to what Madame said, the business of this ramen restaurant and fast food restaurant can be done, but the business of this Hakka inn is not good!" Generally, those who can open inns are all big single businesses, and they can't do it without a strong background! It is not recommended for the lady to do this business, but it would be nice if she could do it in a different way. If Mrs. believes me, you might as well change that place into the form of a small courtyard, and rent it to students in Beijing in the form of monthly rent, so that it will not violate the interests of the inn, and you can also make some money, and Mrs. said that these kinds of food are obviously also a way to make money, especially the balls that Mrs. said, well, if you can continue to sell Yuelai Inn, it is not bad, and you don't have to stick to Hakka Inn, whoever wants to buy it will come to buy, the background of the capital is not as good as other places, the water is very deep, even if it is Yuelai Inn, I dare not say that it is completely arbitrary of this industry, There are also a lot of people who can't afford to eat at Yuelai Inn, not to mention a small business like us, so it's just to beat the price out, and buy those who are willing to buy, and whoever comes to sell it, and sell it no matter how much you buy. ”

Wang nodded again and again when he heard this, Mama Rong's thoughts were very good, and Wang was also glad that he asked, otherwise, he should have made a mistake.

Although people have not been exposed to some things, but some truths are just unthinkable, some common sense truths, as soon as they say it, they will feel that there is such a thing in their hearts, so although Wang has not been exposed to these, but when he hears these reasonable words, he naturally has a judgment in his heart.

It wasn't until Wang Sheng came back from a business trip in the evening that after dinner, Wang retold what Rong Mama said, some of which were relatively professional, and Wang had never even heard of them, so he said to Rong Mama: "Mama, please tell everyone what you said today!" ”

Mama Rong said her suggestion, and Wang Sheng groaned for a while. said: "According to Mama Rong's opinion, if you want to equip all the personnel, how many people do you need?" ”

Rong Mama said: "If you want to equip all of them, at least twenty or thirty people, in fact, it is best for the master to have two small servants around him, if you want to tell the little ones to do something, the other little guy can also follow the master's side!" The implication is that many things are because there are no witnesses. It's easy to be framed, then, if there are two small guys, even if one of the little guys is called away because of some things, but the other guy is still there. It's not easy to be designed.

Wang Sheng hadn't thought about it yet, but Wang Ya calmly said it. Reminiscent of reading novels before. There are also those palace fights in the TV series, isn't it because there are no people on the side, and there will be scenes of people being framed in the capital!

Wang Ya nodded immediately, feeling that this was indeed very necessary, and Mama Rong continued: "And it is best to have two maids next to Madam and Miss, and two Misses will do." Madame can be accompanied by four maids, each performing its own duties. The rough mother-in-law, the outer courtyard is not small, and the three rough mother-in-law are cost-effective. There is also a special study room to be in charge of the small house, but also with two, even with the responsible living room, and guards, at least four, more, six, eight, ten are all OK, in terms of the scale of this yard, six is the best, it is best to buy three carriages, a master, a lady, a lady, if you want to go out, if so, but also find three to drive the carriage, not only to be good at skills, but also to know a little kung fu, if you can, use the guards instead, and add a few, In this way, if the lord and the lady and the young lady want to go out, the safety can also be guaranteed, and as for the little girl, the one who scrubs the house must also be equipped with two ,...... in each yard."

In this way, at least thirty or forty people must be added, that is, Wang Sheng is prepared to feel that there are too many people in this addition, and Wang Sheng's heart is also a little painful, this addition of ten people is already a lot, and now it is necessary to add thirty people at once, oh my God, how much does it cost.

In fact, when Wang Sheng heard what Mama Rong said, he felt in his heart that if he wanted to add people, either he would not add any of them, or he would add all of them at one time, and half of the provincial ones would be added.

Therefore, Wang Sheng asked Mama Rong, if you want to add more people, how much is appropriate, and Mama Rong also said it honestly, Wang Sheng couldn't help asking: "Mama, there are so many people, can't it be reduced?" ”

Rong Mama shook her head and said: "Master, in fact, I understand what you mean, these people, you look at a lot, in fact, there are really not many, and when you wait until later, the master will know the Tao, especially in the officialdom, many things are accidentally negligent, and it is easy to be calculated, so the two little guys around the master must be added." If the lord still wants to advance in the officialdom, then he must learn to calculate, in the officialdom, the undercurrent is surging, sometimes, it's not that you don't offend, people don't offend you, so, sir, if you want to add, just add everything, as for these people, in fact, there are not enough, if you want to add more, for example, if the lord is holding a banquet or something, and there are special departments to handle these to welcome the congratulations, those who add are more than a dozen people, just do this, but, now the lord has just begun to do this, Not for the time being, if it is a long time in the future, it is also necessary. ”

Wang Sheng still wanted to speak, but Wang Ya interjected: "Dad, I think what Mama said is good, these people really have to be added, just like Xiaoqing, Mama is right, if you want to add, Xiaoqing should also have an assistant, otherwise, how can he be busy alone in the future?" Let's just add it all at once, but, Mama, how much will it cost in this way? This, if it's too expensive, think about reducing it! ”

Rong Mama said: "Miss, I've calculated, thirty people, the rough mother-in-law is the cheapest, and the little girl is not expensive, we can't buy the kind of training that is good, the training is good, the rules learned in the original master's house, we may not apply here, and it is easy for people to insert people in, so we can buy the kind of little girl who has just been sold in, the price is cheap, we can also train ourselves, and the same is true for the little girl." The most expensive thing in this is the guard, and you can't buy it, unless there are some guards in the criminal officer, but it's also troublesome, if you can, you can buy some kids, hire a master to teach, these kids who signed the death contract are the most reliable, otherwise, the outside buy is not at ease, if it is temporary, but you can hire a few. Let's talk about the maid first, the rough mother-in-law and the boy, the boy is slightly more expensive, however, the death deed of a little girl is only eight taels to ten taels of silver, the rough mother-in-law is about seven taels of silver, the boy is slightly more expensive, one to ten taels to twenty taels, if there is a literate person, or a scholarly family, it will be more expensive. ”

Rong Mama said something, Wang Ya nodded again and again, this price, in terms of the family's current financial resources, is not expensive, a total of about ten mothers-in-law and little girls, it is only less than a hundred taels, and that kid, calculated, if you count the future reserve guards, a total of fifteen people, even if it is fifteen taels one, a total of two or three hundred taels, and the porter, the cook, plus the hired, even Wang Ya can't help but gasp, these people don't have a thousand taels of silver, are they not all able to do it, and, This is still a small head, and the wages that will be paid to these people in the future are the big heads!

Wang Ya took a breath of cold air and said, "Mama, I know that what you said makes sense, but after such a calculation, wouldn't it cost a thousand taels of silver to equip all these people?" This is not counting the wages to be paid to these people in the future, this is a mountain of gold and silver, and it can't help but be tossed, right? ”

Rong Mama couldn't help but smile and shook her head, and said: "Miss, don't worry, in fact, just to buy someone, five hundred taels is enough, as for the salary, then don't worry, in fact, all I said is the price of the death deed, and the living deed will be cheaper, but I don't want to, and I advise the young lady to better not, and besides, the girl of the death deed is this good, according to the normal rules, the girl and the girl bought by the death deed cannot have their own private property, unless the master family allows, so, as long as the master is responsible for these people's two meals a day, Clothes are fine, generally speaking, the main family will show their kindness, give these people some wages, it doesn't need more, a month, if it is a third-class maid, fifty wen is already the top of the sky, there are more small maids, eighty wen, if it is a first-class maid, then a month one hundred to two hundred wen, it is a lot, this salary is all set by the master's family, in fact, the main family is willing to give wages, it is already very good, how much wages, that is the favor of the lord's family! Many maids have been killed because of mistakes, and there will be no government to hold them responsible, but if they come to the living deed, they can't, if they are killed, if someone sues, the government will intervene. ”

This is what Mama Rong said very coldly, but Wang Ya knew it from the novel, it was indeed Mama Rong who said this, and Wang and Wang Sheng met for the first time, Wang and Wang Sheng couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied with Mama Rong, but Xiaoqing and them had also met some beaten bloody maids who were thrown into mass graves before, so there was no dissatisfaction.

Wang couldn't help but say dissatisfiedly: "Mama, how can you be so hasty when human life is a matter of heaven!" ”

Wang Sheng was also a little dissatisfied, but he knew that since Mama Rong said this, there was a certain amount of truth, Wang Sheng just had a point: "Mama, I have heard a little bit about these things you said, and I don't understand these things in the house, but I only have one request, like Mama said these insidious, I don't want it to happen in my backyard." ”

Wang Ya was worried that the words of the Wang family and Wang Sheng would make Mama Rong have a taboo in her heart, and she would never tell the truth again in the future! Hurriedly stopped: "Father, mother, you can't say that, the saints all say that loyalty is good for deeds, and good medicine is good for disease!" Although Mama's words are not good, they are reasonable. Besides, Mama just gave us an analysis of the pros and cons, father, mother, you don't know the way, have you heard, some people's homes, it's really messy, there are people who frame each other or something, some slaves and maids are slaves and big bullies, and the end is hateful, if you don't kill one or two, calm down, then there are no rules in the family.
