Chapter 725: Visit
The business of the tailor shop is indeed as bleak as the housekeeper said, not to mention that it is already good to be able to guarantee that it will not lose money, and the housekeeper has fired the two guys in the store in order to save the capital, and now there is only one shopkeeper and a guy guarding the two storefronts there, and there are still few things to sell.
First of all, because I can't get the best fabrics, I can only deal in some clothes worn by ordinary people, but the people are usually more frugal, and they can wear these clothes for several years when they buy one, so there are not many people who come here to buy clothes, and they still have to make high-quality clothes, but the fabric is a problem, so the problem that can't be solved, Chen Youyi wrote this problem on paper with a pen and recorded it, and she wanted to find a way to solve it as soon as possible.
The business in Wangjiang Town is not bad, and it has not been affected too much, probably because it is far away from the capital, so the profits over there are still considerable, but because the business in the capital was suppressed before, I took a lot of money from Wangjiang Town to fill it, so in general, I don't have too much cash in my hands.
Chen Youyi roughly calculated that the amount of money needed to buy a piece of land to build a restaurant is still a little short.
She sighed slightly, feeling a little pain in her head, she didn't want to think about this matter anymore, she had to hurry up and clean up, and she was going to visit Master Zhang in a while, so she put aside the few things she had recorded, and at the same time put them in her own mind, and when she had an idea in the future, or if she had a way to solve it.
Chen Youyi opened the door and walked out of it, the little maid on the front page was sitting on the steps of the door, heard the sound, and immediately woke up from her sleep, stood up instantly, a little panicked, "Madam, you're awake!" ”
Chen Youyi knew that it was not easy for her to stay up all night here, and these little maids were all invited to work by themselves, after all, they were not their own henchmen, so they didn't say anything, "Go and fetch water to come to my bedroom, find a set of clean clothes, and help me wash up!" ”
The little maid nodded and turned around and hurriedly ran away, this little maid used to follow Xue'er, learned a lot of things, and knew Chen Youyi better, but she was a little clumsy and didn't care.
After Chen Youyi was almost cleaned up, someone had already prepared breakfast, and the housekeeper was already waiting outside, she listened to the housekeeper return the gifts she had bought, and asked after the housekeeper reported the quantity, "Madam, do you think these things are okay?" ”
"It's okay, take another silver ticket of 10,000 taels, and we'll go to Lord Zhang's house in a while." Chen Youyi instructed, and the housekeeper was a little embarrassed, "Do you take so much money?" Now in our house, I'm afraid we won't be able to take out so much! ”
"Yes, I have already instructed Mo Xincheng to prepare, you can go directly to him and get it, this time you are doing a big thing, you can't worry about money, do as I say." Chen Youyi said that she had something to ask Master Zhang, but she was worried that Lord Zhang would not agree to her, so the money was prepared in advance, just in case.
Chen Youyi had already ordered this, and the housekeeper had no choice but to go to Mo Xincheng to get the silver, and when he came out, Chen Youyi had already packed himself, and then got into the carriage and rushed to Master Zhang.
On the way to Master Zhang, Chen Youyi has been sitting in the carriage and looking at everything outside through the window, whether it is a passing pedestrian or the surrounding storefronts, there are a lot of complicated things in his mind, at this time a familiar figure came into view, at this time he was a little different from usual, dressed very simply, without armor, walking in the crowd is not very conspicuous, but if you look closely, it is still the domineering and majestic Qin Ziheng.
Chen Youyi was slightly stunned for a moment, and almost opened his mouth to call out his name, but because the speed of the carriage was relatively fast, he missed it like this, but Chen Youyi's eyes were still on him, chasing his figure until he was far away, and he could no longer be seen.
When Chen Youyi came back to her senses and thought about it carefully, she saw that Qin Ziheng was only himself, there was not even a attendant by his side, he was dressed so plainly, and he was walking in the direction of Chen's Mansion, would she go to find herself?
It shouldn't be possible, he doesn't know about his leaving the palace, and he doesn't know that he wants to be a grain and grass official for the emperor, maybe he just happened to go in that direction, Chen Youyi's mind was disrupted by Qin Ziheng's intrusion, she tried to sort out her emotions, calm herself down, and settle down Don't think about Qin Ziheng, because there are many, many important things waiting for her to do next.
When Chen Youyi came to Lord Zhang's mansion, Lord Zhang had already prepared tea and was waiting for her, and Lord Zhang knew that Chen Youyi was coming to the mansion, which was an edict from the emperor.
The emperor was also worried that Chen Youyi would encounter any trouble when he first came to office, so he told Master Zhang in advance and asked Lord Zhang to take good care of Chen Youyi.
At first, Lord Zhang was very surprised, he had never heard of a woman being a grain and grass official in history, and this woman was still the eldest princess of Chen Guo, and it was the first time that a woman was an official in the court, but he thought that this Chen Youyi must have her strength, otherwise the emperor would never allow her to be a grain and grass official.
Nowadays, the economic situation of Chen Guo is not very good, coupled with the war in the past few years, a lot of consumption has been consumed, the collection of grain and grass has been the biggest difficulty in the past two years, and a large amount of grain and grass is needed in the imperial court, but the grain and grass officials can't take out the grain and grass, which repeatedly makes the emperor angry, so no one wants to do this drudgery.
So I also attach great importance to this matter, if Chen Youyi's arrival can solve Chen Guo's grain and grass problem, it would be great, and in addition, Zhang Dewang also knows that the emperor has always wanted to restore Chen Youyi's identity as the eldest princess, maybe this opportunity can make her the eldest princess again.
When Chen Youyi came here, there was already someone guarding the door, she had just explained her intention, and the guard guarding the door immediately said, "Madam, you are finally here, our master is waiting for you, please come inside!" ”
She was slightly stunned, glanced at the housekeeper, and had some doubts in her heart, did this Lord Zhang know that he was coming early in the morning? But she and the butler didn't say anything, and followed the guard inside.
As soon as he walked to the front yard, Lord Zhang had already greeted him, with a smile on his face and a very polite tone, "Eldest princess, you are finally here, but the lower officials have been waiting for you for a long time, please come inside, I have already prepared tea." ”
