Chapter 198: Grace and Might
Xiao Hanyin had already read the account books before, and if it continued like this, those shops would have to close sooner or later.
The Xiao family did not set foot in the restaurant, and did the business of rice grain and silk.
After Xiao Yifeng realized the importance of food, he deliberately changed the business of the shop.
Only by using a rice grain shop to cover people's eyes and ears can the Xiao family be able to secretly store grain.
Xiao Yifeng did this, the emperor knew about it, but his purpose was for the soldiers, and the emperor turned a blind eye to it and didn't care about it at all.
After all, this is the imperial city, and once Xiao Yifeng has a disobedient heart, he will immediately arrest him.
The things that the Xiao family did had no conflict with Liu Qingshao's business at all.
The shop's business would fail like this, which was completely unexpected by Xiao Hanyin.
"What happened in the General's Mansion, how could business be so bad?" Liu Qingshao learned from his words that the Xiao family's business began to decline after Xiao Yifeng was imprisoned.
In the past, Xiao Yifeng had a good reputation in the imperial city, and he was supported by the soldiers, everyone gave him three points, and the Xiao family's business was also very good.
After all, the granges under Xiao Yifeng's name have a very rich output every year.
Many people in the imperial city bought rice and grain in his shop......
"Someone privately took the money in the shop, and the shopkeeper was incompetent and let it go!" When Xiao Hanyin mentioned this, his dark eyes were overflowing with coldness.
Obviously, he was extremely concerned about this matter in his heart.
"I will order someone to do this as soon as possible, don't worry!" Now Xiao Hanyin is the second son of the General's Mansion.
If he can't clean up these messes, he will definitely not be able to gain a foothold in the imperial city in the future.
Some people in the imperial city who don't like him are likely to make a fuss about this matter.
Liu Qingshao would never allow such a thing to happen, so she immediately agreed to Xiao Hanyin.
She can't help him with other things, but in business, as long as she wants to do it, she will definitely go all out.
"Thank you!" Xiao Hanyin hugged her slender waist tightly.
"We are an unmarried couple, and we are not allowed to say such things in the future!" Liu Qingshao covered his lips.
Xiao Han kissed her palm......
"Did you get into trouble when you went back suddenly?" After the two were intimate for a while, Liu Qingshao asked about him in the General's Mansion.
"The house is in a mess, everyone has their own careful thoughts, my father's concubines secretly ran away with silver and jewelry, and now the people in the house are scattered, like a plate of loose sand!" When it came to this, Xiao Hanyin was full of upset.
He had always been impatient to deal with these things, but he had to take care of them.
"People are selfish in times of crisis, and now that those people are gone, it is a good thing for the General's Mansion......" Liu Qingshao comforted him in a gentle tone.
People who can't share hardships are not trustworthy at all.
If they don't leave this time, they will definitely become a problem for the General's Mansion in the future.
Xiao Hanyin was comforted by her, and it was clear that he gradually calmed down.
Only by Liu Qingshao's side can he feel at ease.
Subsequently, the two discussed the Xiao family's industry.
Xiao Hanyin, who has only recently returned to the Xiao family, is not too clear about the industrial situation in the house.
He learned it all from the housekeeper, although he investigated it privately, but some properties have always been in the hands of Xiao Yifeng's stepfamily.
After all, she is the general's wife, and she has always been in charge of the middle feed of the house......
However, Xiao Hanyin's relationship with her was extremely bad, and he didn't want to pay attention to her at all.
Therefore, Liu Qingshao and he decided that after finding out all the industries in the mansion, they would immediately start to rectify them, and they must not give those moths in the mansion a chance to continue to harm the Xiao family's industry.
After Xiao Hanyin discussed with Liu Qingshao for more than an hour, she personally cooked a few dishes that Xiao Hanyin loved to eat.
Since he went back, he hadn't eaten a single comfortable meal, there were too many things in the house, and the cook didn't make those things to his liking at all.
After Xiao Hanyin and Liu Qingshao were together, her appetite had already been raised by her, so she had lost some weight in the past few days.
Liu Qingshao was very distressed about this, so she made a lot of delicious food for him......
After he ate in Liu Qingshao's courtyard, he returned to the General's Mansion.
When he returned, he was found by the chief of the palace guards.
"Young Master, we were rude before, and you have spared us magnanimously, we are grateful!" He knelt in front of Xiao Hanyin and said.
He was also injured in the previous fight.
"Get up, there is no need to mention the previous things, as long as you serve the General's Mansion wholeheartedly in the future, I will not treat you badly!" Xiao Han concealed his grace and gave the way.
"Young master, there are some people in the hands of the eldest prince, who are the henchmen he has cultivated wholeheartedly, they are loyal to the eldest prince, you can rest assured that you can drive them!" The leader of the guards said.
"I see, you go down first!" Actually, Xiao Hanyin also knew about it, but he didn't know the identities of those people.
So, that night, Xiao Hanyin went to the prison again to find Xiao Hanchen.
"Big brother, I have returned to the General's Mansion, and I will definitely find a way to rescue you in a few days!" Xiao Hanyin told him about the situation in the house.
"My father treats soldiers like brothers, but he treats women like nothing!" Xiao Hanchen had expected it a long time ago.
Xiao Yifeng has no feelings for his wives and concubines at home, and he is devoted to his career.
Those who really loved him, he failed them all.
Now those women in the house are just people who write about the flames.
The General's Mansion fell, and Xiao Yifeng angered the emperor, so they were naturally unwilling to stay in the Xiao family for fear of death. terminal
After Xiao Hanchen learned that he was struggling in the house, he gave him his personal belongings.
"This is a token, and when my subordinates see it, they will obey you!" Xiao Hanchen wanted him to have a smoother life in the mansion.
"Big brother!" Xiao Hanyin looked at the token he gave and was very moved.
"These people have a few shops with good returns, all of which I secretly purchased before, and few people know about them, and now I have handed them over to you!" Xiao Hanchen patted him on the shoulder through the cell door and said.
"No matter what the result of the Xiao family is, you just do your best!" He didn't want Xiao Hanyin to have too much pressure.
The General's Mansion is now a mess, and even he has no confidence that he can restore the Xiao family to its previous glory.
Xiao Hanyin talked to him for more than half an hour before leaving the prison.
In fact, Xiao Hanyin never intended to take these things for himself, even the General's Mansion.
Now, he is only taking care of it temporarily, and when Xiao Hanchen comes out of the prison, he will return everything to Xiao Hanchen in full.
However, he has always kept these things in his heart, and only Liu Qingshao knows.
He never cared about fame and fortune, if it weren't for the Xiao family being framed and Xiao Hanchen being imprisoned, he wouldn't have returned to the General's Mansion at all.
Xiao Hanyin originally planned to stay in the imperial city for a while, and then returned to the town with Liu Qingshao to continue doing business......
The next day, Xiao Hanyin took the personal thing given by Xiao Hanchen and found his henchmen.
After those people saw the token, they immediately told Xiao Hanyin everything, including the shop they were in charge of, and all of them were handed over to him.
However, Xiao Hanyin didn't ask for it, but ordered them to continue to manage the shop.
The management of these shops that Xiao Hanchen secretly purchased was excellent, and there were no problems in business.
In order to stabilize the situation in the General's Mansion, Xiao Hanyin asked them to meet with the shopkeepers of the shops under the name of the Xiao family in the name of cooperation.
At the same time, Liu Qingshao was also secretly helping to help him.
Now that things have come to such a point, if you want to save the business of those shops under the name of the General's Mansion, only Liu Qingshao has taken action personally.
Liu Qingshao gave him a lot of advice, and Xiao Hanyin did everything she said.
The general's mansion's industry quickly stabilized, and among them, he had already taken refuge in someone else's shopkeeper and was severely punished by Xiao Hanyin.
He knew that these shopkeepers had other thoughts after Xiao Yifeng was imprisoned.
In order to deter them, Xiao Hanyin directly came to kill chickens and monkeys.
He wanted everyone to know that the General's Mansion had not yet fallen.
Several shopkeepers were suppressed by Xiao Hanyin's resolute methods, and they didn't dare to have bad thoughts anymore.
With the help of Liu Qingshao, the business of the General's Mansion gradually improved.
However, the shop is in a big deficit, and if you want to restore its original appearance, it is not a simple matter, and you must slowly figure it out.
Xiao Hanyin is not in a hurry, he will stay in the imperial city in the future, and business matters can be taken slowly.
The most important thing at the moment is to let those ladies in the General's Mansion stop being demons.
Since he came back, the ladies in the house and some relatives of the Xiao family have looked down on him a little.
None of them wanted to obey Xiao Hanyin's discipline.
After all, they are all Xiao Yifeng's concubines, and it is not the turn of a junior to point fingers at them.
The daughters of the General's Mansion have been raised, and they directly ignore the fact that Xiao Hanyin is also the heir of the Xiao family.
Xiao Hanyin has not been valued and loved by Xiao Yifeng since he was a child.
Except for Xiao Hanchen who really treated him in the mansion, everyone else treated him well on the surface, but behind his back, they tried their best to treat him harshly.
If Xiao Hanchen hadn't discovered it in time and rectified those subordinates, Xiao Hanyin's days in the mansion would have been even more sad......
A son-in-law who is not valued by his father, how can everyone in the house really obey him?
Xiao Hanyin has no status in the mansion at all.
Now, as soon as he returned, he collected the power in the palace and reorganized all the property.
They can't spend the money in the mansion as much as they did before, but if they want to withdraw the silver in the palace, they must get Xiao Hanyin's approval.
Such a day of being controlled by others made their hearts full of hatred.
In the past, Xiao Yifeng was the head of the family, and all the things in the house were managed by his stepfamily.
However, the current general's wife is not a suitable person for a housekeeper.
She is virtuous and generous on the surface, but in fact, she is selfish and takes interests very seriously.
Although everyone didn't get much benefit from her, she didn't have less food and clothing.
In the past few years, the border has been calm, Xiao Yifeng often stays in the house, and she doesn't dare to go too far.
Xiao Yifeng only has respect for her, and does not have much affection, and the other concubines want to compete for favor more and more.
Now, Xiao Hanyin completely treats them as if they don't exist, how can he not make them angry.
After all, he is not the serious master of the General's Mansion, and when Xiao Yifeng and Xiao Hanchen's father and son come back, there will be no place for him in the mansion......
Xiao Hanyin knew that those women looked down on themselves in their bones, and felt that they were not rightly named.
However, Xiao Hanyin is still starting to rectify the affairs of the mansion.
Fuzhong is almost chaotic now, and since he came back, things have improved.
It's a pity that those people have always treated him in front of him and behind his back, and they don't obey his arrangement at all.
