Chapter 61: The Qian Family

"What kind of goods does Master Hou plan to procure for the people on Zhuangzi this year? It's good to arrange for someone to go out and buy it for the small ones. Qian Pile asked.

"Except for rice and meat, there is nothing, I have ignored the farmers on the Zhuangzi over the years, fortunately, the Feng Hao you recommended has some doorways, otherwise the Zhuangzi must be deserted." Xuan Shijing said with a smile.

"Brother Feng is also a person with his own hills and valleys in his chest, if he is not talented, the little one will not dare to rashly recommend it to Master Hou." Qian Dui said: "In recent years, the Zhuangzi of your fiefdom has been thriving under the care of Brother Feng, our Zhuangzi is located in the plain, and there is only the river we built that flows through the Zhuangzi in a winding way, and the scenery on the Zhuangzi is wonderful, and the people who see it are relaxed and happy." ”

"I think that if the Zhuanghu Men on the Zhuangzi just rely on farming, they can only struggle for food and clothing, and I don't know if they can develop some side jobs?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"This is naturally there, when the farm is busy, the Zhuanghumen is naturally only concerned about the field, and there is nothing to do when they are idle, so Brother Feng let the Zhuanghumen in the Zhuangzi raise some chickens and ducks and the like, and the newly built reservoir is also stocked with a lot of seedlings, and there are also boating people fishing in the reservoir in the autumn." The money pile replied.

"This Feng Hao really has two brushes, if he doesn't want to do things in Zhuangzi, he can recommend it to His Majesty, and give him a position as the head of a county, and his future will be limitless."

"The little one thinks that Brother Feng must be willing to stay in the Hou Mansion." Qian Dui laughed.

Xuan Shijing smiled: "That's it, if he has a chance in the future, you will mention it to Feng Hao, depending on his own wishes, I wish that all the talents in the Hou Mansion could get ahead." By the way, probably this afternoon Feng Hao will bring the population information on the Zhuangzi to the Hou Mansion, at noon today, you will stay in the house to eat, in the afternoon, the three of us will discuss the matter of purchasing New Year's goods for the farmers in Zhuangzi, after finalization, you will send someone to start buying it early tomorrow morning, and in the afternoon, I will take someone to go to Zhuangzi with the same year's goods. ”

"Very good, now many noble mansions in Chang'an City have also begun to buy things for the farmers on their own fiefdom Zhuangzi, let's buy it a day earlier, and the price can be a little cheaper, and when Gao Jun returns to Chang'an around the twentieth day of the lunar month, the batch of New Year's goods he carried, maybe he can sell a good price." The money pile is full of news, and this way of making money makes him feel very satisfied.

"You, businessman." Xuan Shijing quipped: "It is estimated that there are a lot of things that Gao Jun brought back, let's do our best first, if there is really any leftover, don't take it and sell it, and distribute it directly to the mansion that is good with the Hou Mansion, and bring the people in the mansion to follow suit." ”

"Cheng, listen to Master Hou." Qian Dui laughed.

Because Qiandui wants to eat in the Hou Mansion, Xuan Shijing specially instructed the kitchen to make some sumptuous meals at noon, although the Qian Dui is now in the Xuanwu Embrace Food all day is not much worse, but now most of the food in the Xuanwu Arms comes from the Hou Mansion, if it is authentic, the Hou Mansion is more Xuanwu than the Xuanwu Mansion, it can only be better.

"It's been a long time since I've eaten the food of the Hou Mansion, although the Xuanwu Hold is similar to the food of the Hou Mansion, but after all, it is missing the taste of home." Qian Dui sighed.

"Eat more if it's delicious, although you are in Chang'an all year round, you have been busy working outside, and you rarely go back to the Hou Mansion, if you like it, you will come back every day, and the Hou Mansion is not bad for your room." Wang said with a smile: "You are also the big shopkeeper of our Shengtang Chamber of Commerce now, and you can't always do it yourself, and you can assign it to let the people below help bear some of it, looking at you these days, you have lost a lot of weight." ”

Qian Dui's father Qian Duo is familiar with Xuan Shijing's parents, Qian Dui is also Wang's child and watched grow up, inevitably treat Qian Dui as his own child, Wang especially remembers that Xuan Mingde saved Qian Duo, Qian Dui is still in infancy, Qian Dui's mother starved to death in the troubled times, at that time Qian Dui was already hungry skin and bones, or Wang looked for the nurse in the Zhuangzi, the milk was on the rice cereal, so the Qian Dui was fed, and the heart was very fond of Qian Dui.

"Thank you Mrs. for your concern, it's just the burden on the money pile, the money pile can still bear it, the Hou family has a big business, don't be negligent, now our Chamber of Commerce plus the Jinyang Fund, the scenery is incomparably beautiful on the bright side, and I don't know how many ill-intentioned people are staring at us behind the scenes." Qian Dui smiled: "We can't let them take advantage of it." ”

"Yes, in the past, when the Hou Mansion was short of food and clothing, he always wanted to make more money to subsidize the cost, but now that the family has a big business, he still has to worry about being calculated." Wang sighed and said: "Seeing that it is also the first day, is Qiandui planning to spend time in Chang'an, or go back to Erxian Village to accompany your father?" During this Laba Festival, you didn't go back to accompany your father to have a great ritual, alas"

"Madame doesn't need to sigh, it's also ashamed, my father said that my Qian family's ancestral rites had already been destroyed in the war, and this matter was also a major heart disease for me and my father, and I planned to wait for a few days after the first day, and then go back to Erxian Village to complete the matter of the Qian family's ancestral shrine again." Qian Dui said.

"In other words, this year's Chinese New Year, you won't go back to Erxianzhuang when the money is piled up?" Wang said: "There have been several years when you have no old money to spend the New Year together, or send someone to take the old money to Chang'an this year, just get together and have a lively time, as for Erxianzhuang, let your old money be arranged properly." ”

"Mother is talking about extremely, Qian Dui, you will write to Uncle Qian when you go back tonight, let him come to Chang'an City together, and it will be lively and lively for the New Year." Xuan Shijing echoed.

Qian Dui nodded: "In that case, I will write to ask my father." ”

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the Central Plains was ten rooms and nine empty, I don't know how many big families were like Qian Duo's family, the sect collapsed, and in the future, even if Qian Lai and Qian Dui were to rebuild the Qian family's ancestral rites, the number of those who could be worshipped was only three or four generations, if there was a family tree, it would be another matter.

"Speaking of which, I haven't heard about Xuan Mingdao and his wife for a while." Xuan Shijing looked at Wang and asked.

"They have moved out of the Hou Mansion and bought a house in Chang'an City, the day after Sun Yaoting was assigned, they hurriedly moved out of the Hou Mansion, hmph, if the two of them have nothing to do with Sun Yaoting, they don't believe it anyway." Wang said angrily.

"Well, it's okay to move out, I see that the people in our house don't treat them very well, but they also went to a heart disease, the two of them are separated from our Hou Mansion, in case something happens in the future, don't stab you in the back, it can be regarded as the good fruit of our daily accumulation of virtue and good deeds." Xuan Shijing said with a smile.

"But the younger one is the son of Guan Xuanqing, who is square and pure, not like his parents." Qian Dui said.

"Qing'er, that child is rare to be able to maintain such a pure conscience under the teaching of the two of them, Jing'er, after all, your father was favored by the Xuan family back then, and the truth that he was reciprocated by the favor of others is still understood by his mother." Wang said.

"What do you mean?" Xuan Shijing looked at Wang in confusion.
