Chapter 171: Intended

After sending away Yuan Zhang's group, the old men in the Li family incense shop put down the long sticks in their hands in unison.

I saw them kneeling on one leg, clasping their hands into fists and saying to Shi Jinxiu: "Meet Madame!" ”

Shi Jinxiu was naturally taken aback by them.

Tang Quan looked around, then smiled: "This is not the place to talk, let's enter the shop first!" ”

"Steward Tang is right!" Some of the old men in the group stood up with a smile, and made a gesture of wanting to invite Shi Jinxiu.

Shi Jinxiu quickly recognized that this old man was the one who was thrown out of the shop before, but now looking at his spirit, he felt that he didn't look like the kind of person who was easy to be bullied.

The old man seemed to see Shi Jinxiu's doubts: "Let Madame laugh!" We just want to find a place to live, and we don't want to cause trouble for no reason. ”

Shi Jinxiu understood.

They chose not to make a move before, not because they were afraid that they would not be able to fight, but because they were worried that they would cause trouble for Yu Wenyan after they made a move.

"If that's the case, then ...... just now" Shi Jinxiu regretted his rash move just now.

"Madame, don't worry, then you just owe a lesson, let's beat him, it's also for his good!" Tang Quan saw it and smiled at her.

The matter has come to this, it is useless to think about it, Shi Jinxiu lifted the skirt and entered the Li family incense shop.

But as soon as she entered the incense shop, she didn't regret teaching that group of people a lesson just now.

A good shop was smashed by those people and there was no good place.

The broken porcelain tiles on the floor were mixed with broken incense pills, the white walls were splashed with jet-black ink, and a marble-topped table of eight immortals was knocked off a leg and thrown crookedly in the center of the room.

"Are they bandits?" Shi Jinxiu couldn't help but ask when she looked at these, "What kind of grudges do we have against those people?" Why are they going to smash the shop like this? ”

"As far as our shop is concerned, what grudge can we have against them." Tang Quan sneered, "The only thing that can make them look at us is this shop." ”

"Paving? But isn't this shop owned by an adult? That's it, how dare they? Shi Jinxiu believed that just with Yu Wenyan's murderous reputation outside, no one would dare to hit his shop.

I didn't think about it, but Tang Quan coughed with an embarrassed expression: "This shop was originally recorded in my name...... As a nobody, I can't suppress those people at all. ”

Shi Jinxiu, who heard this, was not surprised.

If it weren't for this, the industries under Yu Wenyan's name would have been noticed a long time ago.

It's just that this shop doesn't make money in the first place, and now it is so troubled by Yuan Zhang and them, and it will lose even more.

Shi Jinxiu silently looked at the shop back and forth, and the group of people really smashed the shop thoroughly, which made her regret that she only had to pay them five hundred taels of silver.

"Where do you sell your incense on weekdays?" After checking it like this, Shi Jinxiu believed that most of the people who lived in the capital would not come here to buy incense.

"It's all going to the city." The old man in the lead came over, "There are also the kind of merchants who wander around the country like to take goods from us." ”

Such an inadvertent sentence made Shi Jinxiu suddenly enlightened.

Whether it is now, or in a dream, whether it is Xixiangtang or Xinxiangge, everyone's eyes seem to be locked in the narrow world of the capital forever.

There is no doubt that there are many dignitaries and nobles in the capital, and their ladies naturally like the incense products of Xixiangtang or Xinxiangge.

But what about the ladies of the squire's family outside the city?

For them, it is not easy to go home, let alone rush to the capital.

"I don't know what the old man is called?" Because he knew that the people in this shop were all people who had been kind to Yu Wenyan, Shi Jinxiu didn't dare to hold it up, but asked the old man's name softly.

"The old man's surname is Zhu, and my wife calls me Zhu Laohan." That Zhu Laohan didn't dare to make a mistake.

Shi Jinxiu nodded, looked at Tang Quandao, and said, "Manager Tang, I have an idea, but I don't know if it's feasible?" ”

After learning that the five girls of the Marquis of Changxing Mansion would become their housewife, Tang Quan went to check Shi Jinxiu's identity and background, and unexpectedly found that their new lady was quite talented in business.

Therefore, when he heard Shi Jinxiu say this, Tang Quan said: "My subordinates listen to me." ”

"The shop was smashed like this, and it won't be able to reopen for a while, so it's better to take this opportunity to renovate." Shi Jinxiu looked at Zhu Laohan, "I don't question the skills of you old craftsmen, but now it's not enough to rely on the previous incense recipe." ”

Zhu Laohan smiled bitterly when he heard this, he didn't expect that as soon as this new lady came, he would see the crux of the problem.

"We don't know! It's just that this incense recipe is like the lifeblood of each incense factory, and each one is very strict. Zhu Laohan sighed and said, "These recipes in our hands were all left by the old marquis, and we can only make incense and not study incense, so we can only eat the old book." ”

"You don't have to worry about this matter in the future." Shi Jinxiu smiled with him, "This is not difficult for me, but the difficult thing is that I have to think about what to do first, so during this time, you don't have to rush to work." ”

She couldn't damage Xinxiang Pavilion in order to help them, so she needed to negotiate a charter with Sister Fuxin.

"But......" Zhu Laohan asked with some concern, "how do you calculate the wages of these people in that shop......

"Of course, it's the same!" Shi Jinxiu smiled and said, "Today's incident has shocked everyone, so let's say that I said it, let everyone rest for a while, and then bother the two of you to explain a thing or two to you." ”

Tang Quan arched his hand towards Shi Jinxiu without any objection: "The subordinates receive the order." ”

Zhu Laohan saw that although he had doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to say anything in the end, so he had to respond to the matter.

After Shi Jinxiu came out of the Li family's incense shop, he grabbed Tang Quan and asked eagerly: "Steward Tang, what does Madam mean by this today?" Is it for us not to do it? ”

"Didn't Madame say, let you rest for a while, and you can rest in peace!" Tang Quan smiled and squeezed his eyes with the old man Zhu, and then left with Shi Jinxiu.

"Uncle, what did Mrs. and Steward Tang mean just now? Is it true that we will no longer be allowed to open shops? Someone gathered around and asked.

If the Li family incense shop can't continue to open, what will happen to their livelihoods?

"Do you know about this? I think Madame is just a little girl, can she count what she says? Shall we go to Lord Yuwen and make the decision for us? Someone began to coax in the ear of the old man Zhu.
