"Are we free?" Qingqing was stunned with the deed of sale in her hand.

In the small courtyard of green bricks, Aunt Wang had already called the three girls out, and the sudden good news made them all stunned.

"That's right, it's free." Aunt Wang looked at them with a smile.

When they learned that Ning Su had proposed to the lord to redeem their lives, they were even more surprised.

"Susu!" Qingqing saw Ning Su at the door, hurriedly pulled her over, and said happily, "Is it true?" You tell me! I couldn't believe my eyes. ”

Ning Su nodded.

Dong'er's face was full of surprise, and Ting'er frowned slightly, her face was puzzled. She had always been at odds with Ning Su, why would she do this?

Ting'er looked at Ning Su and said without yin or yang: "You are really kind, what kind of ghost are you doing?" ”

Ning Su glanced at her: "You want to continue to stay here as a slave and a maid, I will not stop you, go and stay free." She sneered in her heart, she had no intention of helping this Ting'er, she was not right-minded and selfish. It's just that because I want to help the other two girls, since it's a yard, it's just a matter of saying it by the way.

Qingqing suddenly became worried, and nervously held the deed of sale: "But, I'm an orphan, I'm not here, and I don't know where I can go?" She looked at Ning Su: "Susu, tell me, what are your plans?" ”

"My lord promised me that if I passed his test, I would be able to do business with him."

Business!

Three pairs of eyes fell on Ning Su's face at the same time, they were so surprised, women in business? The unheard of, the unseen.

"Women, like men, can own their own property." Ning Su replied like this.

Her words were shocking, but they gave the three girls some inspiration and inspiration.

Qingqing was thoughtful, and soon she said excitedly: "Susu, if you pass the test of the lord, I will help you, you do business, I can't, but I can help with the little hands, carry the tea and water, and run away." Susu, you'll take me, right? ”

Looking at her expectant eyes, Ning Su nodded, this girl is gentle and honest, and it's good to help.

Dong'er said: "I still think it's better to stay in the house, I don't have as much ambition as you, since I am out of slavery, I eat and live well here, and I have a monthly amount of silver, which is better than my hometown." When I save some money and find someone to marry, I will be satisfied. ”

The three of them had their own intentions, and Aunt Wang glanced at Ting'er and asked, "What about you?" "This girl is a tricky girl, in fact, she doesn't want this Ting'er to stay in the Xie Mansion. If she was the master, she would have driven this tricky girl out long ago.

Ting'er glanced at Ning Su and Qingqing, and couldn't help pursing her lips, she was unwilling to run errands for Ning Su, and besides, she might not be able to pass the lord's assessment. But like Dong'er, she doesn't want to be a handmaid.

"Is there a place to recruit female workers in Xie Mansion?" Ting'er asked Aunt Wang. She was inspired by Ning Su's words, and suddenly felt that a woman was the most reliable on her own.

"Yes, Xie Fu has an embroidery workshop in Fannan, and it is recruiting embroidery girls, if you want to go, of course you can."

"Then I'll go to the embroidery workshop." Ting'er said categorically.

Her decision was unexpected by Ning Su, although this girl is tricky, she is a person with ideas and calculations.

After the group was assigned, Ting'er left and went to the embroidery workshop, while the other three still lived in the courtyard, and before Ning Su passed the test, Qingqing also stayed in Xie Mansion for the time being.

**

"Childe, someone is here."

Xie Qingyu raised his head, the brush he was holding in his hand paused, and when he saw someone coming, the corners of his mouth hooked up with a sly smile.

It was Ning Su who came in.

"Give her the clothes." He commanded.

Manager Xie immediately sent the clothes in the tray in his hand to Ning Su, Ning Su looked down, and on the tray was a light cyan gown, the fabric was smooth, and it was a man's style.

"I changed my clothes first." Manager Xie said.

Ning Su nodded, understanding what Xie Qingyu meant, he was afraid that she would embarrass Xie Fu by going out in women's clothes.

Manager Xie took her to the ear room, and soon Ning Su finished changing, and even changed her hair.

When she appeared in front of Xie Qingyu again, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect that this girl's women's clothes were gentle and moving, and the men's clothes were even more elegant, like a wisp of wind blowing, and there was a little uninhibited in her heroic appearance.

The double-ringed bun on her head has been removed and replaced with a man's bundle of hair, tied up high with a silver crown, without the woman's fat powder, and more wanton and chic.

In this way, he felt that her men's clothes were more pleasing to the eye.

"My lord?" Ning Su's clear voice sounded, and Xie Qingyu came back to his senses at this time.

He was stunned?

"Ahem...... he coughed embarrassedly, and said, "Come today, you should know what you are doing." ”

"Yes."

"Well, let's take a look at it first."

Xie Qingyu threw over a piece of rice paper, which he had just drawn with a brush.

Ning Su took it curiously, only to see that the paper looked like a map, but from time to time there were a few circles and dots, and the circles were densely packed, and I didn't know what it was.

"What you are holding in your hand is a map of Fannan, and the circle on the map is Xie Fu's big store in Fannan, and the dot is a small store or office."

Ning Su was taken aback, she just heard that Xie Mansion was a big merchant, but she didn't expect that there were so many shops, it was simply ...... It's simply that the entire business of Fannan has been monopolized by the Xie Mansion!

"Look where the red dot is."

Ning Su looked down, and sure enough, there was a red dot, located in the alley near several prosperous streets in Fannan.

"That's a cloth shop, it's losing money year after year, and I was going to close it this year, since you're going to test it, okay, that's the topic. You have to turn the cloth shop into a profit, and the time limit is half a month. As long as you make a profit, even if it's a penny, if you make a profit, my son will not treat you badly, and you can include the profits you get within half a month. Xie Qingyu curled the corners of his lips proudly, and his shallot-like fingers gently tapped on the tabletop.

Ning Su stared at it for a few minutes, then raised his head and asked, "If I make a profit, Childe will let me do business?" ”

"That's right, if you pass, my son will give you a position as a steward, as for what you can do, it's up to you."

Ning Su thought about it, the position of the steward? Sounds good, but the starting point is pretty high. In the huge Xie Business Group, a steward beside Xie Qingyu can manage several stores.

Ning Su nodded.

"However, if you can't pass the test," Xie Qingyu slyly tapped on the table, looking at Ning Su's face, "you will be punished." ”

"Huh? Punish? They hadn't talked about this before, "What punishment?" She looked at Xie Qingyu's face.

"You will lose your right to liberty and become the private property of my son again." His face showed the cunning of a profiteer.

Looking at Xie Qingyu's smug face, she couldn't wait to kick his feet, this guy is really a profiteer, and he won't eat at all.

Manager Xie on the side was a little worried, for a newcomer who has just entered the mall, how difficult it is to change the fate of a store in half a month! Childe's exam question is clearly trying to take this girl for himself, and she is very treacherous.

He was a little sympathetic to Ning Su, he felt that this girl should not agree, she was also a shrewd person, obviously this business was not worth it.

I didn't expect that.

"Good!" Ning Su happily agreed, "I promise you!" Half a month! ”
