Chapter 240: On the eve of the exam

There are still three days left before the entrance examination, and the capital seems to have suddenly become a lot quieter, and it is rare to see groups of people who go to Beijing to take the examination on the street to talk about the country. It is understandable that the so-called guns are not lit or light, and the lifters are huddled in their quarters for final preparations.

Han Fuzhong is also a scene where the whole people are preparing for war, although Han Fei has repeatedly asked everyone to be busy and not to take special care of him, but where are the others willing to listen? Liu Ru instructed Qingwen to personally supervise Han Fei's diet to prevent accidents, Han Fei Wenshu's study is surrounded by people who are forbidden to enter without authorization, if there is something important to report, they must enter quietly, and don't make noise.

Whether Han Fei can be admitted to the Jinshi or not is very related to the future of the Han family, in fact, there is no need for Liu Ru is supervision, and the subordinates are also consciously cautious in their words and deeds, for fear of disturbing Han Feiwenshu. Qingwen even sat outside the study early in the morning to guard, not allowing anyone to stay and talk nearby.

Han Fei understood their feelings, and although he did not approve of their approach, he did not oppose them. After all, he is not absolutely sure about this exam, in case something goes wrong, lest they blame themselves.

When it was time for lunch, Liu Ru personally rushed to the study with the food box and accompanied Han Fei to eat with Qingwen.

Liu Ru hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said: "Master, Lan'er has not returned to the house since she said goodbye a few years ago, do you want to pick a dexterous girl to serve by your side?" ”

Han Fei understood that Lan'er must have gone to the White Lotus Sect to find Aunt Xiuniang for help after learning that he was in distress, so he said: "Lan'er's business, you don't have to worry about it, she will come back, Ling'er already has another task, there is indeed a lack of a cleaner in the study, you pay attention, pick up the girl who is old and focused!" ”

"The concubine knows, leave this matter to Qingwen!" Liu Ru said again: "Master, in the past few days, our Han family has acquired more than a dozen real estate shops, and a Zhuangzi outside the city, the concubine has let the housekeeper Lin Quan be responsible for supervising the affairs of the pharmaceutical workshop, and the concubine and the Baochai girl are preparing for the civil declaration of the northern headquarters, and now the affairs are going well, and in two days, the northern version of the civil declaration can be published and distributed." ”

Liu Ru paused for a moment, and then said: "Due to the rush of time, in order to open the situation as soon as possible, the concubine is in charge of preparing various affairs regardless of the cost, and she has already spent nearly one million taels of silver in a few days!" ”

Qingwen did not have the right to participate in the core decision-making of the Han Mansion, and she did not know the true strength of the Han Mansion, when she heard this, her body was shocked, and the bowl in her hand almost fell to the ground. She could hear that Liu Ru was still very light about the matter of spending a million taels of silver, so the strength of the Han family was probably far beyond her imagination.

Han Fei glanced at Qingwen and said lightly to Liu Rus: "If so, you are now the big shopkeeper of the Han family's industry, and you have the right to make decisions according to the actual situation, if the Han family wants to gain a foothold in the capital as soon as possible, it is inevitable to spend a huge amount of money, and the government will leave enough two million taels of silver as emergency funds, and the rest will be used by you." You must be prepared to relocate some of Jinling's industries to the capital, complete the relocation work before August, and transfer them from Jinling if the funds are insufficient. ”

Liu Ru thought for a while and said: "Master, the concubine is considered like this, the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce has Xue Ergongzi presiding, you don't have to bother, Sister Baoqin will not come to the capital for the time being, just in charge of the people's declaration of the southern version and the affairs of the house, the old housekeeper Lin Fu stayed in Jinling to manage all the industries, Sister Lan, Sister Hengbo, and Cuilan can enter Beijing first, and after the main production period of perfume, Sister Xiangjun and Yinxin can also leave for Beijing in June!" ”

"Well, you can arrange this matter, after you set the itinerary, send more nurses to protect you on the road!"

"Don't worry, master, the concubine knows how to do it!"

After lunch, Liu Ru had to retire in advance, and Qingwen cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and her face was still shocked.

Han Fei saw Qingwen's appearance and said with a smile: "What are you doing again?" ”

Qingwen's face was slightly red and said: "The slave maid just didn't expect our Han family to be so rich, in the past, in Jiafu, I often heard that the masters were arguing over the expenses of tens of thousands of taels of silver, and our Han family had millions of taels of ...... at every turn."

Han Feiyi stretched out his hand and pulled Qingwen into his arms, and said with a smile: "The Jia family is a family of eunuchs, and their face is glorious, but in fact, they just have a scary shelf, coupled with various complex relationships, the expenses are extremely huge, and there are no people in the mansion who are good at management, so they are naturally stretched." Our Han family is different, we started as a businessman, everyone has exercised their business skills, and the Han family does not have a complex relationship network, the expenses are much smaller, and they can naturally accumulate a lot of funds. ”

Han Fei pinched Qingwen's full chest, and said: "I said that you chose to come to Han Mansion is the right choice, because of this, in the Han family, the rich life you get is impossible to get in Jia Mansion!" ”

"Well, the slave is glad to have come to the Han Mansion, and I am glad to have been favored by the master!" Qingwen leaned on Han Fei's arms with a happy face, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Master, the slave also wants to learn some business methods, so that she can contribute to the family!" ”

Han Fei said: "We don't need everyone in our family to know how to do business, but everyone's talents will be brought into play, I took a fancy to you at the beginning, not because you are beautiful, but because of your talents." I've long heard that you're a very good woman, and you've been trained for a while, and then you've partnered with Cuilan to take charge of the textile workshop. ”

Qingwen said excitedly: "Thank you for your appreciation, the slave will definitely work hard to live up to the master's expectations!" ”

"I have faith in you!" Han Feihu said again: "Qingwen, your family is also near the capital?" ”

"Well, there are fathers and mothers and several younger brothers and sisters, and the family can't support so many people, so they sold the slaves and maids to Jiafu......"

Seeing the sadness on Qingwen's face, Han Fei patted her on the back and comforted: "The past is over, and the future will get better and better...... I didn't know that I just saw you give money to your dad that day......"

Qingwen hurriedly knelt on the ground and said anxiously: "The slave didn't take the money and things in the house, it was all her own monthly money...... The slave and maid did not show the master, please ask the master to blame ......"

"Okay, okay, I don't blame you for giving money to your father, if you have the ability, you should support your father, this is filial piety, how can I blame?" Han Fei pulled Qingwen up, and said: "'Give it a fish, it's better to give it a fish', you can provide for a while, but you can't support it for a lifetime, you have to let them find a way to make money!" ”

"The slave and maid understand, but the family is too poor, and life is tight, where can I have the capital to make a living?"

"As long as they are willing to work hard, the cost is not a problem, so let's do it, the stinky tofu in Junyue Restaurant needs a stable source of tofu, let your father and mother make tofu, the cost is not big, I asked He Cuiqin to pay first, how about counting it as tofu money?"

"Slave, thank you, master!"

"It's all my own people, so I don't need to say kind words, but I have a word first, just do this job well, and we must ensure the quality of the tofu, otherwise, no one can help them!"

"The slave and maid understand that their fathers and mothers are honest people, and they will definitely not live up to the expectations of the master!"

Qingwen packed up the dishes and chopsticks, happily walked out of the study, and came back after a while to report, "Master, the previous summons, Xu Zheng's son is visiting!" ”

The exam is about to begin, Xu Zheng is not at home to study, why are you coming here at this time? Han Fei was suspicious in his heart, but he said, "Tell the little servant to lead Xu Gongzi to the study!" ”
