However, although the dyeing, weaving and quilt processing industry is very important to Zhu Daolin today, he has to take Xiaoying's request seriously, and he is even more unwilling to let his wife and concubine have nothing to do all day.

After a little consideration, Zhu Daolin immediately expressed his support: "My Xiaoying is ingenious, and the clothes and skirts made are absolutely first-class, I support it!" Just, where are you going to open this workshop? How big is it? ”

Xiaoying was overjoyed when she heard this, and crawled to Zhu Daolin and offered a fragrant kiss: "We have discussed, let's open it in the East Garden, we already have 20 machines, and we also want 80 sewing machines and 5 sewing machines, specializing in women's business, do you think it's okay?" ”

Zhu Daolin was relieved after hearing about the scale of production of this kind of ticketing: "No problem, it's just that Dongyuan is not easy to live in if it becomes a workshop, what do you think?" ”

"Our sisters have discussed it, Sister Ruyan moved in to live with the concubine, and the girl and the girl have been living in Xiyuan with Sister Xu Fu, the place is wide, it is enough." The shy little shadow put her face on Zhu Daolin's shoulder, not daring to look at Zhu Daolin's eyes.

Zhu Daolin was quite surprised, and immediately understood the true meaning when he thought about it, picked up Xiaoying's red face, and asked with a smile: "Honestly, who came up with the idea?" ”

Xiaoying knew that she couldn't hide her shrewd husband, so she timidly told the truth about the reason: "The concubine and sister Ruyan have been married to their husbands for almost a year, and they all want a child to inherit the family for their husbands......"

"Sister Xu Fu is not in good health, she has always felt sorry for her husband, she said that her husband loves her and all of us, and she doesn't want us to have children so early, and every time she has sex, she has to count the days, so as not to get a few concubines pregnant, and even such a girl and a charming girl are not allowed to sleep before the age of 16. So I can only count on the concubine and sister Ruyan. ”

"The concubine body thinks it makes sense, Sage Yun: There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great! The concubine and sister Ruyan don't want to be unfilial, so they ...... I beg your forgiveness for our presumption. ”

Zhu Daolin was very moved after hearing this, and hugged his beloved woman and comforted: "Don't worry, you will be 17 years old after this year." Wait another year for you to have a baby, like cigarettes, and you must be at least 18 years old to get pregnant. ”

"Don't look at you all seem to be adults, but the bones and organs in the body have not grown well, giving birth too early is very harmful to the body, I don't want to see you fall ill in the future because of giving birth too early, I want you all to live a long life, stay with me in good health, and live this life happily together."

"The concubine understands...... Husband. The concubine loves you so much! ”

"I love you too! Come down, lie down well, and don't mess with me if you're not in good health. Zhu Daolin turned sideways and hugged the hot little shadow in his arms.

Xiaoying hit Zhu Daolin's chest twice indignantly, clinging to Zhu Daolin's arms and no longer moving, gasping for breath and suddenly remembering something:

"Husband, two days ago, Senior Brother Yucian came to you several times, saying that Master invited you to discuss important matters. Early yesterday morning, Master suddenly set off for the Maoshan Ancestral Garden, where the Master Uncle and two deacons sent by the Ancestral Court walked together. The concubine felt as if something big was about to happen. ”

Zhu Daolin pondered for a moment, smiled, and hugged Xiaoying tightly: "Don't worry, it's a good thing!" Go to sleep, I still have to prepare for the shareholders' meeting at dawn, and if I don't sleep, I won't have time. ”

Just after eight o'clock in the morning. The hoarfrost condensed on the branches has not yet melted, and the main courtyard of Hushan, which has been quiet for a long time, has begun to be lively, and the major shareholders of Bofu Qian Zhuang have come one after another.

Zhu Daolin waited at the gate of the compound with his confidant Ye Liangchen, saluted the old man who arrived first, and then grabbed Ying Changpei, who was happy. forced him to stand with him, greeting the seniors who came one after another.

Ye Liangchen, who put on a prosthetic leg but was no different from ordinary people, laughed, entered the courtyard with the kind old man Ying, and went to the warm back study of the middle courtyard to drink tea and wait.

Xu Hongji, Duke of Wei, Zhang Gongwei, Marquis of Longping, Wu Jingxian, the eunuch of the town guard, and other shareholders arrived at the same time with their sons or relatives.

Two months ago, Zhao Zhilong, the uncle of Xincheng, who obtained a 5% share transfer from Old Man Ying, also appeared in front of Zhu Daolin with a smile this time.

The five senior thinkers of Bofu General Magazine finally arrived, all in good spirits and full of smiles, obviously proud of the rapid development and excellent performance of Qianzhuang.

After greeting everyone, they entered the courtyard.

Zhu Daolin accompanied Wu Jingxian to the end, and asked Wu Jingxian in a low voice if he had finished reading the investment plan he handed over to him?

Wu Jingxian nodded with a smile and told Zhu Daolin that the plan opened his eyes, and the two talked as they walked, reaching a consensus on the relevant matters of today's meeting.

The shareholders' meeting was held on time at 8:30, and Zhang Gongwei, the rotating director, took out the statistical report handed over to him by the think tank a few days ago, and it took half an hour to read it out, and the last sentence of "It is expected that the annual profit will exceed 2.2 million taels" The closing remarks caused bursts of applause.

Immediately afterwards, Mr. Yu, the head of the think tank, was invited out by Zhang Gongwei to analyze the performance statistics of the previous three quarters and make a forecast for the economic situation in the next year, including the surging peasant riots in the northwest region, and also reminded shareholders to pay close attention to the possible political turmoil in the capital.

Shareholders began to talk.

Xu Hongji and Zhao Zhilong, who don't have much financial knowledge, kept asking questions to Old Man Yu's think tank, while Old Man Ying and Wu Jingxian got together to discuss in a low voice, and Ying Changpei, Zhang Deyi, Xu Wenxun, and other juniors and relatives sitting in the back row could only prick up their ears and listen carefully.

Zhu Daolin was very surprised by the report read out by Old Man Yu on behalf of the think tank.

Regardless of whether other shareholders have such far-sighted vision and sensitive political sense, Old Man Yu and the four old-timers behind him who have specialized in silver lending for most of their lives are absolutely the only economic talents in the future, and they have come into contact with Zhu Daolin's "Principles of Statistics", "Introduction to Economics", "Financial Budget", "Finance and Market" and other economic theory books secretly provided by Zhu Daolin for less than a year, and they have made such a great improvement, and they can also use some basic theories for statistical analysis and prediction, which is enough to make Zhu Daolin deeply admire.

At the end of the nearly two-hour discussion, the shareholders took turns to sign their names on the two summary reports, and unanimously decided to hold the most important annual meeting on the 15th day of the first month of the sixth year of Chongzhen, in the newly completed three-story building of the Bofu General Headquarters, at which time the final decision will be made on the development plan for the next year, including the improvement of silver ticket printing technology, the issuance of small silver bills, the minting of silver coins, and the issuance and promotion of affairs.
