The people of the Hu family were driven away in this way. Everyone was very happy, but Li Xu was still a little worried: "If the government finds out that they are not against the party and let them back, what should they do if they come to the door to make trouble again?" ”

Chun Ying said with a smile: "Although they are not rebels on the surface, they are serious and have been in prison, Young Master Xu, can you really stand up straight in front of the people in the official government?" If you don't spend money on dots, how can you come out so quickly? When the government tries cases, it also pays attention to the first come, first served, right? When the case is closed, we say that they are not against the party, and we just say that we are dazzled and admit their mistakes. If they come again, they still call back, saying that they are impostors. ”

Li Xu hesitated: "Hu Dalian's wife and daughter are gone, and he doesn't even have the money to hire a sedan car......"

Chun Ying sneered: "If he really wants to make a living here, what can't he do?" I didn't stop him from begging for a living here, nor did I force him to move out of here, I just didn't give him a chance to encroach on Xiao Feige's property. Young Master Xu, don't be soft-hearted, you don't know what kind of person he is. Ruozhen welcomed his family in. There will be no peace in and outside the village. I won't let Xiao Fei come back after all the hardships, only to find that his home has been taken by the enemy! ”

Li Xu opened his mouth and closed it again. Although what Chunying said was not straightforward, the meaning of the warning was audible. In the final analysis, they are the fiancée, and they are planning to stop Hu Fei in it, what is it? Think about it, my mother and brother are so vicious that it is rare, I am not Hu Fei, how do you know his thoughts? Why bother here? And he said nothing more.

Seeing this, Chun Ying slowed down her expression and said with a smile: "The trouble here has been solved, and I have to ask Young Master Xu and Young Grandma to introduce this Steward Zhang for me." ”

Lao Zhang was listening for a while, guessing Chunying's identity, and glanced at Li Xu when he heard the words. Li Xu said: "Let's go home first and then talk." Chunying and the others responded.

Chunying saw that Grandma Xu was still in the small courtyard of the farmhouse, so she went to call her, only to see that she was talking to the mother-in-law of the pair of mothers-in-law: "...... Don't go outside, but if you have any difficulties, just open your mouth. Our husband and wife can't help anything else, and we still have a few taels of silver. ”

The woman smiled humbly: "The old body thanks Second Grandma Li for her kindness." Fortunately, the old man can still move his hands and feet, turned out the loom he used when he was young, and took his daughter-in-law to weave some cloth every day, which is enough for the family to chew. If you really encounter something that costs money, you are really powerless, and you have to ask for the grace of the second grandmother. ”

Chun Ying glanced under the eaves. Sure enough, I saw two looms in the open space in front of her house, and there were half-woven cloths on them.

After Grandma Xu told the pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, she went out of the courtyard gate, looked up and saw Chunying in a daze, so she asked with a smile: "What's wrong?" Chunying shook her head with a smile and turned around and walked towards the Li family's house.

Everyone returned to the living room and sat down, Li Xu took a sip of tea, and then pointed to Lao Zhang and said to Chunying: "This is the housekeeper that Brother Hu is used to, his surname is Zhang, and the girl is called Lao Zhang." He was originally from a nearby town, but now he has a home in Liushuzhuang, and he takes care of the entire Zhuangzi, and the shop in Nanjing is taken care of by someone else, whose surname is Chang. "I want to explain Chunying's identity to Lao Zhang, but I have a difficulty: I haven't passed the door yet, and I have to take care of the housework, how should I introduce her?!

Chunying smiled and nodded to Lao Zhang: "Hello Grandpa Zhang, it's the first time we meet today, my surname is Lu, I don't know if you've ever heard Brother Xiaofei mention it?" My family is very familiar with Xiao Feige. Lao Zhang suddenly said: "It turned out to be the second girl of the Lu family?" The little old man heard the owner of the village say that the girl and the girl's uncle. He was the benefactor of the owner. ”

Chunying relieved her heart a little, Hu Fei really mentioned himself to his subordinates, and said: "Brother Xiaofei goes abroad, it always takes two or three years of hard work, because I am afraid that there will be no one to take care of at home, so I entrusted the industry in the south to Young Master Xu, and the north to our family, and let us take care of it here." It's just that in the past, I was far away in Beijing, but now that I'm finally here, I always have to come and take a look and ask. Although Young Master Xu is the most thoughtful, since Brother Xiaofei entrusted me, if he doesn't ask anything, and I'm afraid that when he comes back, he will blame me for not taking his family business to heart. Therefore, I had to be cheeky and follow Grandma Xu to have a look. ”

Li Xu's face relaxed. Chunying's statement not only avoided the controversy of her identity, but also showed that it was not because she was not able to take care of herself, but she was still measured.

When Lao Zhang heard this, he looked at Li Xu's face again, and said with a smile: "In this case, although the girl asks, the little old man knows everything." ”

Chunying smiled, but just asked the size of the Zhuangzi, the height of the terrain, what crops were planted, and how many tenant farmers there were. These are very simple things. There was nothing to hide, so Lao Zhang answered them one by one.

Chunying heard that all the crops in the village were grain, mainly rice, and some melons, fruits and vegetables, and a few acres of fruit trees were planted on the farthest hillside, so she felt that Hu Fei had planned very well, and asked with some curiosity: "I often hear that Jiangnan has two crops a year or three crops in two years, but is it true?" Is the same for the crops in Little Feige's farm? ”

Lao Zhang smiled: "This is a little difficult to say. We plant more japonica rice here, after the summer harvest, and make up a stubble of yellow rice, and when it is ripe in August, we will also plant some wheat, beans or other grains, plus melons and vegetables or something, it is difficult to say how many ripe times a year. However, the output of the village is very good, and when the owner was at home, he specially invited the old man who was the best at farming in the nearby township to come and see it, and then ordered it to go down. (No pop-up ads)"

Chunying nodded, and asked again: "I heard Grandma Xu say that most of the people here grow cotton, but there are no plants here?" ”

Lao Zhang shook his head: "When Zhuangzi was in the hands of the previous master, he was also planted. Dozens of acres, abandoned for a few years, all died, the owner of the village called the roots to be shoveled, and the land was reorganized, and other things were planted. Second Master Li's family has cotton. ”

Li Xu also nodded and said: "I once asked him to plant some more, but he said that the grain was important, so he planted all the grain, but there was not a single cotton plant, and the people nearby laughed at him." To know. In the area of Changshu, most of the people are planting cotton, Rao is like this, it is not enough to weave cloth locally, and it is necessary to transport cotton from Taicang. Planting cotton here is not worrying about not being able to sell it, but he is determined that he will not sell! ”

Lao Zhang said with a smile: "Second Master Li, the owner's idea is good, because there are few local grain growers, every harvest season, the grain on our village is never worried about selling, and the price is high." ”

Chun Ying listened and couldn't help but laugh secretly. Hu Fei may not be shrewd in farming, but when it comes to doing business, he is definitely talented.

After chatting like this for half an hour, Chunying had a general understanding of the situation in Hu Feizhuang, and when Grandma Xu came to urge them to eat, she gave up and only waited for tomorrow to go to the field to inspect.

At night, she stayed at Li's house. Jiangnan houses, all have small and delicate attics, she opened the carved window, through the moonlight to look out, she faintly saw the area of Liushuzhuang, is a large area of newly planted rice, the low slope in the distance is a dark. To the northeast, about a hundred meters from the attic, you can also see a small attic standing behind a white-walled mansion. She thought carefully about the location of the place she had been to today, and guessed, it was probably Hu Fei's house?

When she got up the next morning, she looked out the window again, and the house was clearer. It occupies a large area, half-new and not old, perhaps after Hu Fei bought it, it was repaired. You can vaguely see that it is three in and three out, and there is a set of courtyards on the east side, but there are a few specific. But I can't see it clearly.

Sister-in-law called her outside the door, and she had to withdraw her gaze and welcome Sister-in-law He who was holding a basin of water.

On this day, she accompanied Grandma Xu, took a large group of servants to walk around the neighborhood, and then took a boat to the nearest town, secretly paying attention to the people along the coast and the scene in the town, and when she came back, she thought about it carefully and smiled slightly.

Hu Fei's vision is really good, although the place here is smaller, the population is not much, but the development potential is great, the future will be expanded into a prosperous town, if you buy a little industry now, there is a lot of room for appreciation in the future.

Chunying's heart suddenly moved, and an idea came to her.

She was a little excited, and hardly slept at night, but thought about it over and over again, thinking about it back and forth, inside and out, and made up her mind, and on the third day, when she went out again, she began to pay attention to some local information, and even the gossip of the nearby town.

stayed in Liantang for three or four days, and after returning to Suzhou, Chunying found her father as soon as possible, pulled him into the house, and closed the door.

Lu Yougui was confused: "What's wrong with you?" The road went well, right? What's wrong with Brother Xiaofei's Zhuangzi? ”

"No, he's very good." Chunying sat opposite her father and said seriously, "Dad, let me ask you, how much silver did you bring with you when you came out this time?" ”

Lu Yougui was a little puzzled: "There are three or four hundred taels, and almost all the living money of the family has been withdrawn." Since it is to follow the Hou Mansion to do things, naturally I don't worry about being robbed, I am looking at the materials and embroidery these days, this time to transport a batch of goods back, should make a lot of money. ”

Chunying hurriedly said: "Dad, don't be busy buying it first, I have something to discuss with you." You said...... Is it good for our family to buy property here? If you think Suzhou is expensive, go to Changshu, otherwise the neighboring Jiaxing, Huzhou or something, it is also okay. ”

Lu Yougui was stunned, thinking that he understood what his daughter meant: "That's right, buy a little land first, and wait for you to marry when you pass the door, and it is also decent." ”

"That's not what I meant!" Chunying blushed and took a deep breath, "Dad makes money as a middleman, and he can only look at what goods others take, and then say that he agrees, in fact, he doesn't make much money every time, except for a commission of a few dollars, which is the reward given by the buyer when he is happy for a while." It's good to have a big deal like Dongfu once or twice a year, usually it's just a few dollars to save a few dollars, but Dad has to run back and forth non-stop, isn't it too tiring? ”

Lu Yougui sighed: "This is also impossible." Just wait for our family's situation to be better, more silver, and our own store will be fine. ”

Chunying said: "If my father wants to open a shop, why does it have to be a silk shop?" In the past few years, I have walked around and found that there is a kind of tooth shop in the south of the Yangtze River, which specializes in silk and cloth business, buys local materials, and then sells them to merchants from all over the world at a high price. Dad is a veteran, and he has enough vision to do this, besides, this is Jiangnan, and there are several large and small towns nearby, what is the most? What material is not? Merchants from all over the world gathered. Dad will be able to open a store here, and he will be like a fish in water! ”

Lu Yougui was silent, and only asked after a while: "Do you see those teeth...... Business is really good? ”

"When the boat passed by, I saw that the merchants who were carrying the goods were lined up outside the door. I don't want you to open a store casually, so I naturally have to inquire carefully in advance. If you don't want to open it locally, then go back to Beijing to open it, it's the same, but it's even harder to run between the two places than before. Chunying saw that her father seemed to be a little shaken, and hurriedly added a few words, "I also have another idea: an official eunuch like Dongfu likes to use Jiangnan silk for happy events in a year, or to make new clothes for the seasons on weekdays, and the selling price is more than three times more expensive than what can be seen in Jiangnan!" We are familiar with people in Beijing, and if we can win this deal, even if we only do one or two dozen cases a year, it is much better than asking people what they want to buy now. We don't need to wrap up rounds, we only specialize in making two or three good things, Dad can be easier, and we can still play the signboard! ”

There was a hint of hesitation on Lu Yougui's face: "Our family...... After all, the roots are in the capital, and there are also your sister and brother-in-law's family, and your second uncle's family. Chunying said cautiously: "I'm not asking my father to put aside the foundation of Beijing, it's just that it seems to be better to do business in Jiangnan." When it comes to separating loved ones...... It's really a difficult thing to do, and it depends on your father's decision. Hengzhu is not in a hurry. ”

Lu Yougui nodded, was silent for a while, and sighed again.

Chunying lowered her voice and said, "Actually...... Leaving the capital is not a bad thing. There are too many people there who know our details, and if you meet one in three or two days, you will be tired enough. In Jiangnan, everyone doesn't recognize us, and you are less angry. ”

Lu Yougui didn't say anything. Chunying felt that she should accept it when she saw it, so she smiled and said: "No matter what Dad thinks in the end, now we can first inquire about the price of the shop house here or something, and if there is a cheap one, we can buy it and rent it." Or if you have good land, buy it and plant some cotton, which is also good. Hire an honest man to help watch it, and let Mo Han collect the rent. When he came back, he told me that his parents had heard that it had been sold to Jiangnan, and they planned not to go back to Beijing, so they stayed and found their parents to think about the future. ”

Lu Yougui nodded: "I know, I also heard some news these days, wait for me to go around tomorrow, look around, and then talk about it." ”

Chunying answered, spoke for a while, and then exited the door.

Her suggestion is not a whim, but has been considered for a long time, although it is quite reluctant to separate from relatives, but if you want to drag out the entanglement of the past and live in peace, I am afraid you still have to leave the capital to find another place to live. Moreover, the silk tooth shop or cloth tooth shop is a sunrise industry, whether it is my father or Hu Fei, they have all done similar work, and they are very familiar with it. There is not much money, so I first collect a batch of good materials that are in demand, sell them, and immediately earn the difference, if it can be shipped back to Beijing to sell, just sell to various silk and satin villages, you can at least double the price. It's much better than the previous small fights. Since you have the money and the vision, why not make it bigger?
