Chapter 16: Back to the door
It is rare to walk with a general, Fang Xu is very good at seizing and seizing opportunities to perform, and asks how the business is prepared? The bookkeeper can be ready, and if not, take the time to cultivate henchmen.
The account office is very important, it is best to arrange a confidant to serve as a person, and then do not be in a hurry to do business, the store should be opened one by one, and the money can not be earned in a day.
It's all good intentions, the general understands it, and his grievances against Fang Xu have disappeared by two points in his heart, knowing that Fang Xu has insights in business, he can't help but complain to Fang Xu a few words.
When it comes to his own business, the general is on fire, and he wanted to transfer some silver from the shop, but he didn't expect it to work at all, and when he mentioned the silver shop, he was called poor, and he was poorer than them.
"What kind of business do you guys do?" Fang Xu couldn't help but ask.
"The fabric business, and the grocery store, and the rouge gouache, it is said that these businesses will not lose money, but, alas." The general sighed at the mention of business.
"Is the fabric home-made or is it bought from someone else? What is the purchase price? Where do you get the rouge gouache? ”
When Fang Xu heard that it was this business, he also felt that this business was very profitable.
He remembered that the best business he did in his previous life was a woman's business, whether it was cloth or rouge gouache, it was a woman's loyal thing, and it was very profitable.
It costs a few dollars to sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars, and it can be said that women's money is the best in the world, and there is a famous saying that women are born to spend money.
It's a bit ridiculous, but women are really good at spending money and can find pleasure in spending money.
Then Fang Xu inquired a few more words, and found that the general didn't know anything about business, and he didn't know what kind of fabric he bought or how to sell it.
There are few people in the Dingguo Mansion who know how to do business, and they will only check the account books every year, and they will be very happy if they don't lose money.
Fang Xu, who listened to it, had a black line, and one hundred and eighty taels was happy like that? The time his mother gave him pocket money was not one hundred and eighty taels.
No wonder Dingguo Gong is so poor, there is a reason for being poor.
Fang Xu raised his head and rubbed his eyebrows, the general turned his head to look at it, and asked, "Isn't everyone operating like this?" ”
"Everyone does this on the surface, but in private it is definitely not the case, they will care about the store's products, business methods, the latest fashion colors, and so on.
They will even make a list of the source goods, looking for merchants with good quality and good quality to cooperate, and not like you, who really be the shopkeeper who shakes his hands. ”
Fang Xu bit the four words of the shopkeeper very hard, the general understood, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and after thinking about it carefully, he found that Fang Xu said these things and so on, and the Dingguo Mansion did not do a word.
The handshaker described it too accurately.
"The Guogong Mansion is good at fighting, but it is really not good at business." The general thought for a while before saying such a sentence, Fang Xu nodded, he could also see it.
It's not that I'm not good at it, it's that I don't know anything.
If the people under their hands have a fancy intestine, they are afraid that they will not find the slightest bit.
"The shop in the Guogong Mansion is not profitable, where does the usual expenses come from?" Fang Xu asked curiously.
"Fight a war, take down a city and grab a city, as long as you fight a war, the income of the Guogong Mansion can support it for a period of time."
Jing Yan interjected, she felt that the general must be embarrassed to say this.
In fact, Jing Yan knew her family general too well, and the general's lips didn't move.
Fang Xu listened to a black line, I'll go! Emotional war is so expensive, no wonder everyone says that the soldiers and bandits are a family, and they are really a family.
Fang Xu silently stretched out his thumb, and then asked about the war, was it true that the city was slaughtered? Can you really kill all the people of a city?
The general gave the answer, the slaughter of the city was real, and for the safety of the rear of the army, the slaughter of the city was sometimes inevitable.
Of course, in this era, the population of a city was only 10,000 or 20,000, and only some cities with lively water and land transportation would have a large population.
It's just that this kind of city is generally in the belly of various countries, and it is basically not in danger of being slaughtered.
Fang Xu quietly wiped a handful of sweat, this woman really can't be regarded as an ordinary woman, she doesn't frown when she talks about slaughtering the city, but she frowns when she mentions silver.
Sure enough, a penny was difficult to defeat the hero, and the general was also frowned at the silver.
The group chatted all the way back to the mansion, the general returned to the Songlin Courtyard, and Fang Xu went to see Mrs. Wu Anbo.
In the Peony Courtyard, Mrs. Wu Anbo was listening to the news of the Drunken Immortal Building reported by her subordinates, and happened to see Fang Xu walking in, so she immediately got up and walked a few steps quickly, and opened her mouth and said:
"Ouch my son, let Weiniang see it, where is the injury, that damn Cheng Dong will bully others, poor my son, the old injury is not healed and a new injury is added."
When it comes to sadness, tears really flow.
Fang Xu was given goosebumps by Mrs. Wu Anbo's performance, but fortunately, his eyes were very good, and he didn't see worry and sadness in Mrs. Wu Anbo's eyes.
Otherwise, if you really have to kneel, you will really put Mrs. Wu Anbo on your head and be filial.
Of course, even if the other party didn't care from the bottom of his heart now, Fang Xu didn't have the intention of harming the other party.
"Mother, I'm fine, you see, I'm not good." Fang Xu turned around, and the crescent white robe became more elegant as it rotated, like an immortal.
Mrs. Wu Anbo's eyes flashed for a moment, with remembrance in her eyes, and then returned to normal.
Pulling Fang Xu up and down for a while, it was true that Fang Xu was not injured, and then he took a long breath.
Recall? Fang Xu's brows flashed with doubt, just now Mrs. Wu'an's eyes flashed with reminiscence, who did she see she was reminiscing?
Suppressing the suspicion in his heart, Fang Xu and Mrs. Wu Anbo exchanged a few polite words, quickly turned to the topic, and asked with a smile:
"Mother, I have been married to the general for many days, and I haven't returned to the door yet, I'm afraid that it is not in line with the courtesy, and the child wants to take the general back to the door as soon as possible."
"If you want to get it, you should really go back to the door as soon as possible, alas, if it hadn't happened to you that day, this time the door would have been done a long time ago."
Mrs. Wu Anbo took Fang Xu's hand and sighed again, and scolded Lin Xingxue, the son of a black-hearted merchant, who dared to beat her baby son.
Fang Xu listened to Mrs. Wu Anbo's scolding, with a smile on his face, and occasionally followed a few scoldings, and waited until Mrs. Wu Anbo had enough to scold, then asked:
"I wonder if you're ready for the return ceremony?"
"It's been prepared for a long time, but the meat patties and dishes will have to be prepared by a butler tomorrow." Mrs. Wu Anbo took out a roster and handed it to Fang Xu for him to look at.
Fang Xu took the booklet and looked at the list of gifts on it, judging from the gift list, the amount was really unclear, and it was also a lot of blood when he thought about it.
After all, he is married to a general, and if the return gift is too light, it will not be respectful enough, and Mrs. Wu Anbo is very clear in major matters and will not leave a handle on people.
