Chapter 61: The shop is robbed
"Miss, the master is here. After dinner, although Shen Man'er was better, she was still a little tired, and she planned to see her father later, but she didn't expect her father to come over.
When Shen Man'er came out, Shen Xiang was already sitting on a stool in the outer room waiting for him.
"Dad, I was about to look for you in a while, but I didn't expect you to come. Shen Man'er said as she sat down beside Shen Xiang.
"Man'er, my father heard Shen An tell you about your affairs in the manor, but I didn't expect Shen Fu to be so bold and reckless, you went to work hard this time. Shen Xiang was also very shocked when he heard Shen An's report just now, he knew that there had been a drought in recent years, and the harvest was not good. But he didn't expect Shen Fu to lose his conscience so much and fill his pockets, if it wasn't for Man'er going this time, he wouldn't know how long he would be hidden.
"Dad, Shen Fu has been sent down by me, now I will let Shen Zhong take care of it on my behalf over there, I want to ask my father what I plan to do in the future." Shen Man'er thought that after all, the emperor was far away from the sky, and after a long time, it was possible to produce another Shen Fu.
"Man'er, in fact, your mother has been taking care of the manor before, and now I can't think of a better way for a while. "Shen Xiang is also too busy, how can he usually have time to pay attention to his own industry.
"Then father, do you believe Man'er, can you leave the manor to your daughter to take care of it temporarily?" Shen Man'er thought, in the future, she would have to develop other industries, and these manors could just be her own base.
"It would be great if Man'er was willing to manage. It's just that we still have a lot of industries in the Shen Mansion, and my father is afraid that you will be tired. Shen Xiang thought that the Shen family was not only a manor in the capital, but also her grandmother's dowry at that time in Jiangnan, and some of the properties she carried, and she hadn't looked at it in the past few years, but the income was quite good.
"Father, don't worry, your daughter doesn't do things that she is not sure of. Shen Man'er and Shen Xiang chatted for a long time, talked about their future plans, and took out the 200,000 taels of silver tickets that they had searched before.
"Dad, this is from Shen Fu before, you take it, the second brother must be very busy during this time, this money may be able to help a little. Shen Man'er sent those silver tickets to Xiang Ye, but Xiang Ye looked at the silver tickets, but refused to accept them.
"Dad, don't shirk it, I can't look down on this money. Do you know how much the previous "Dream of Red Mansions" volume sold?" Shen Man'er smiled playfully at Shen Xiang, she knew that her book could sell at least 40,000 taels. This second volume will come out immediately, and it is estimated that there will be no problem with 100,000 taels at that time.
"How much is your book worth, now you and your third brother are still busy in the restaurant, it is the time to ask for money, you should keep the money. Shen Xiang felt that this money was originally obtained by his daughter, so he should be at his daughter's disposal, and his daughter's recent big moves all needed money.
"Dad, you just take it, when the second volume is sold out this time, it is estimated that I have more money in my hand than these." Besides, opening a restaurant is my business with my third brother, and we will find a way to make money, if we can't even solve this problem, you won't count on us in the future. Shen Xiang saw that his daughter insisted like this, and he no longer shirked, and told Shen Man'er to have a good rest, and then went back to his room.
Shen Man'er fell into deep thought after Xiangye left, her father is still a beautiful man, but since her mother died, her father has always been alone, do you want to find a wife for her father, so Shen Man'er has another task in her life plan.
On the second day, Shen Man'er was ready early, for the convenience of acting in the future, she decided to engage in business as Shen Wansan, although this Shen Wansan is a relative of Xiangye outside, but even the nine clans may not have this guy's share, and it is not a waste if she does not use such a good identity.
"Man'er, why are you dressed like this again? Shen Yibin looked at the young man standing in front of him, and said that Man'er wanted to go out with him like this.
"Third brother, do you think, if this restaurant is opened by the third young master and the fourth young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, will there be opponents of the Prime Minister's Mansion who come to find fault, with this capacity, at least they have to weigh it. Shen Man'er thought that the third brother and his identity would always be a trouble, if there was such a day, at least there would be a way back.
"Why do I think it's easier for them to target, I don't dare to find the trouble of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so I start with something related to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Shen Yibin groped his chin, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.
"And, what do you like, anyway, I just want to do it in this capacity, if you don't want to, you can get it yourself. Shen Man'er simply didn't go, just sat on the stool and didn't care about Shen Yibin.
"Hey, what is this for, am I just thinking about it? We've all been preparing for so long, how can we say that we won't do it without doing it. Besides, even if they do come to find fault. I'm not afraid, don't forget that your third brother is still the former tyrant of the capital. Shen Yibin said as he patted his chest confidently.
Shen Man'er was amused by her third brother, thinking that the third brother had really put a lot of thought into this matter recently, and he no longer talked with him here, and the two went straight to the promising store.
As soon as he walked to the store that Shen Yibin was optimistic about, he saw people coming and going in the store, going in and out, and some tables and chairs were being moved in, and the previous store owner was standing outside the door, commanding not to hurt things.
Shen Yibin saw this posture, how could he not know that things had changed, walked forward in a few steps, and grabbed the shopkeeper's clothes as soon as he grabbed it. "What's going on, didn't we talk about coming to see the shop today, what are these people doing? Furious, the shopkeeper's little man was picked up by him.
"Young Master Shen is angry, I can't help it. The shopkeeper cried and apologized to Shen Yibin as he spoke. Shen Man'er looked at this posture and felt that something was wrong, so she hurriedly ran to the third brother and pulled away the third brother's hand holding the shopkeeper, "Third brother, you let go first, let's ask clearly first, and see what's going on." ”
Shen Yibin also came back to his senses at this time, thinking that what Man'er said was right, but he couldn't swallow this breath in his heart, "You'd better have a good reason, otherwise I won't be able to spare you." ”
"Young Master Shen, it's not right to say that he is old, the son of my family who is not angry has somehow become addicted to gambling money recently, and he lost penniless yesterday. Last night, a group of people suddenly came to our house and said that my son owed three thousand taels of silver, and I was frightened when I heard it. Later, I couldn't do it, so I gave it to them. This morning, I learned that those people were all from Chengfu, and they had already taken a good look at my shop and were ready to open a restaurant. But it's already like this, Young Master Shen really can't help it, otherwise they will arrest my son and go to the official mansion." When Shen Man'er heard this, she didn't know that someone was probably targeting her and the third brother, but the poor shop owner was only afraid that he was also implicated by them.
"Then what are your plans? "Before, the owner of this shop was only going to rent it to himself, but now it is completely gone, and I don't know what to do with this family.
"Young Master Shen don't worry, I planned to go back to the countryside and buy some land for the rest of my life. Now that I have encountered these things, I have already packed up, and when the handover here is completed, I will go back to the countryside. The shopkeeper said helplessly, although he had plans before, but he had to wait for a few years, and now he can only go back in advance.
"Then take care of the old man in the future, we will have a period later, third brother, let's go." After speaking, Shen Man'er pulled Shen Yibin away.
