Chapter 864: Sad Xiao Jiuqi
Fu Yuanling really went to the boat in Bofu to say hello, and then didn't let Yuan Zhi and the others follow and only called a boat lady, and came back with a basket of wine, food, snacks and other things.
This boat is small, lightweight, and neat, and it is just right for the two of them to sit in it at this time.
Too big is slightly empty and lonely, too small will inevitably be crowded.
Everything went well tonight, even a small boat was so agreeable.
Fu Yuanling personally sifted the wine, the fire in the small tandoor burned red, and the copper kettle made a sizzling sound on the stove.
One pot or two, a few snacks, sit opposite each other, and you can see the person you like when you look up.
Xiao Jiuqi really liked it in his heart, he was so happy, a pair of eyes just stared at Fu Yuanling's every move.
The night breeze in autumn was slightly cool, but fortunately, there was this stove, the breeze blew, and the hem of Fu Yuanling's clothes swayed gently.
Fu Yuanling poured Xiao Jiuqi a glass of wine, raised his eyes, met his silly eyes with a smile, and couldn't help but laugh with him, "What are you thinking?" ”
"You."
Fu Yuanling's face flushed, this person really dared to open his mouth to say anything, "Speak well." ”
Xiao Jiuqi was very aggrieved, "I'm just talking well." ”
Fu Yuanling held his forehead, angry and laughing, a trace of sweetness spread in his heart, and sighed lightly, "It feels like we haven't talked well for a long time." ”
Xiao Jiuqi was even more aggrieved, "You're so busy." ”
Fu Yuanling coughed lightly, "It will be much easier in the future, Yuanli is the chief steward and can share a lot for me." ”
"Let Yuan Zhi also go out to do things, and it will be easier for you."
Fu Yuanling: ......
Xiao Jiuqi knew that it was impossible, so he said with a little pity and some nervousness: "Will you always be so busy in the future?" ”
Then isn't he very pitiful, even if his daughter-in-law marries into the door, she probably won't have much time to accompany him!
Fu Yuanling shook his head, "Recently, I have been picking suitable seedlings to cultivate, Qi Ruozhong has drawn up a list, and the chief steward has no suitable candidates at the moment, but pick a few from the second steward to take a look first." ”
She also knows this problem, if she really marries, it is impossible to leave Xiao Jiuqi aside and only take care of business.
Being a husband and wife is not about talking about business, what she yearns for most is that Fan Daru and Mrs. Fan are like each other, walking side by side.
The temperament between her and Xiao Jiuqi is very different, he is lazy and unmotivated, while she is diametrically opposed.
Therefore, the pace of the two is too different, and if they want to live in harmony, they must need a proper way.
Fu Yuanling saw that Xiao Jiuqi was working hard, whether it was Yunzhou or Southern Xinjiang, he was trying to give her an arm to rely on.
So, he had gone so far, and she wanted to get closer to him.
As soon as these words came out, he saw that Xiao Jiuqi was happy, and he also made an idea with her, "Otherwise, let Qiao Anyi recommend a few talents to you, he must know some capable managers." ”
Difference in profession makes one feel worlds apart.
Xiao Jiuqi doesn't understand business, but he doesn't want his ignorance to cause trouble for Fu Yuanling, so if you don't know anything, just look for Qiao Anyi.
Fu Yuanling has done so much for him, can he still handle this little thing?
Fu Yuanling was immediately happy, "Do you think that the steward is the vegetable in the field, and if you look good, you can go home?" ”
"Isn't it?" Xiao Jiuqi felt that this was the same as the imperial court's selection of talents, which was much the same.
"Of course not." Fu Yuanling explained to Xiao Jiuqi, "For example, our own family, the chief steward of the Fu family has signed a death contract for three generations, and only after three generations can he leave the country......
Fu Yuanling simply explained to him what he had done in Luyang Mansion at the beginning, and finally said: "Every big businessman, who has been in business for more than two generations, and the housekeepers are all under the jurisdiction of the head of the family, and they can't get out easily, otherwise wouldn't they raise talents for others?" ”
Xiao Jiuqi: ......
"What then? There's no other way? Xiao Jiuqi felt that Fu Yuanling must have a way.
"Of course, these stewards belong to the merchants' own stewards, easy to manage and loyal, and the most reliable, just like Qi Ruozhong and He Ping. In addition, there are some stewards who find a way out of their own and attract attention with their ingenuity, and then are hired back to be stewards. This kind of stewardship is rare, and there is a drawback, talented people have always been proud of things, and they will inevitably not agree to sell themselves, which involves a question of loyalty. ”
Xiao Jiuqi was dizzy when he heard it, does a small steward have so many doorways?
"Therefore, how to keep people and make them loyal depends on the ability of each family master." Fu Yuanling said.
Xiao Jiuqi was absolutely right, he saw the pride and confidence in Fu Yuanling's eyes.
Therefore, what is he worried about, there is no big manager, that is, there is no suitable candidate, once there is a suitable candidate, Fu Yuanling will definitely not miss it.
In my mind, I suddenly remembered the last time Pei Xiu lamented to him about the terrible things about the Fu family, and I was a little jealous that Zhang Xin and Yuan Qiu entered the Fu family as guards.
So, Xiao Jiuqi was also silent.
Fu Yuanling looked at Xiao Jiuqi's somewhat lost look, and couldn't guess what he was thinking for a while, so he said: "These things are ordinary things, not only me, but all merchants will encounter such problems, so you can't be in a hurry when you take your time." ”
Xiao Jiuqi looked at Fu Yuanling, "I can't seem to help you with anything." ”
After living so big, for the first time, I felt like I was really ...... Rubbish.
Out of sorts.
Fu Yuanling looked at Xiao Jiuqi in surprise, "Why can't you help me?" You don't have to do anything standing behind me, it's my biggest support. I was able to go so smoothly in Beijing, and you are indispensable. ”
The main reason is Xiao Jiuqi's dog temper, and the protection of the emperor and queen regardless of right and wrong, who dares to provoke this.
didn't dare to provoke Xiao Jiuqi, and even the future Princess Jin with her was feared.
For example, the Mei family, if it was an ordinary merchant, how could Mei Chengchuan be so indecisive, hesitate again and again to show favor to himself, and did not dare to directly attack the Fu family according to the set outside the gate.
Who is behind this?
Of course, it was Xiao Jiuqi who even dared to beat Xiao Ting, the big backer of the Mei family, directly.
Xiao Jiuqi was really comfortable when he heard it, right, he was still very useful.
How could he not be useful.
As soon as he was in a good mood, Xiao Jiuqi talked more, and said to Fu Yuanling: "The mansion will be repaired at about the end of the year, and it will be painted and colored as soon as the weather is warm next year, and the flowers and plants in the yard will be planted, and when we get married, it will be what you like." ”
Fu Yuanling was slightly stunned, "So fast? ”
"How can this be considered fast, they are all old men, they have sealed so many kings in one go, and the inner court is crazy to be busy, otherwise it can be faster."
Fu Yuanling is really not in a hurry, she will officially be filial piety in July next year, and it is still early.
"Xiao Ting still wants to compare with me, he dislikes that his mansion is a bit small, and he wants to expand more, how is it possible." Xiao Jiuqi said triumphantly.
Fu Yuanling really didn't know about it, and looked at Xiao Jiuqi and said, "Why is it impossible?" ”
After all, both of them are princes, and it stands to reason that the regulations are the same.
