Chapter 039 Husband and Wife's Night Talk (1)
Zhao Tianqing is coming back?
Wang Qifang was holding a small token in her hand, which was handed over to Xiao Xin'er by Zhao Tianqing on the day of the full moon of her children.
"Qi Niang, what are you?"
After Mama Zhao sent the girls out, she turned back into the house and found Wang Qifang staring at the things in her hand in a daze. After she saw what it was, she asked suspiciously.
"Mama, you go and make arrangements, I'm going out tomorrow," Wang Qifang didn't answer Mama Zhao's question, but put the token back in her purse and instructed lightly.
"Yes," Mama Zhao saw that Wang Qifang was serious, and hurriedly responded. Just thinking of Zijuan who had just gone out, she reminded: "Then do you understand that the man who still wants Zijuan to come?" "And her family's erlang. Didn't Qi Niang decide to see Erlang tomorrow morning and give him an errand?
"Oh, I didn't make it clear," Wang Qifang came back to her senses when she heard Mama Zhao's words, and said with a smile: "Su Zijian and Brother Erlang are here in the morning, let's go out in the afternoon." Hehe, the second young master handed over a few goods under his name to the new brother, but the new brother is still young, and I, as a mother, should help him go and see it. "By the way, take back the dividends from the last quarter, you know, in order to acquire the notes issued by the Zhao family firm, she almost took out all the silver at the bottom of the box.
Now, Zhao Tianqing is coming back, if he doesn't take advantage of his absence, he will do these things, and when he comes back, hmph, with his selfish temperament, I'm afraid he won't be able to get a penny back.
"Yes, I'll arrange it, do you want to talk about it in advance?"
"No, didn't my wife say it, when I'm fine, go out and walk around more, I'm an obedient daughter-in-law, my mother-in-law has a life, how dare I disobey?"
Wang Qifang's tone was flat, and only the smile on her face revealed her mood at the moment.
The next day, when she asked Mrs. Zhao to say goodbye, Wang Qifang mentioned that she was going out to visit. Mrs. Zhao saw that her daughter-in-law listened to her words and was very satisfied, so she generously asked her to go, and she watched the family and Yuanniang.
Back in the courtyard, Zhao Erlang was already waiting at the gate of the peony garden, Wang Qifang saw that his face was ruddy and his face was radiant, and he knew that this milk brother was very satisfied with the house she arranged.
"Brother Erlang, you are my nurse brother and my most trusted person, if this shop in the East Market is handed over to you to take care of, do you have any plans?"
Although Wang Qifang has formulated a detailed plan, she still wants to test Zhao Erlang's ability.
"Grandma Xie Ershao, if you raise the small one like this, you still call me Zhao Erlang," Zhao Erlang stood in the hall with his head down, and across the screen, he arched his hand and said: "As for that shop, the little one also went to Dongshi to take a look yesterday." I found that this shop was surrounded by shops selling rouge gouache, silk gauze and wigs, and the shops were well decorated, and most of the customers were rich wives and grandmothers. If the second young grandmother asks the little one to run this shop, the little one thinks that we should use this resource, and we will also open a shop that specializes in female customers. ”
"Oh?" When Wang Qifang heard this, she seemed to be very interested in Zhao Erlang's statement, she straightened up and asked, "Then what do you want to sell?" But after listening to your words, the shops around the house have already packed all the things that female customers can consume, what else can we do? ”
"Well, that's what the little one thinks," Zhao Erlang attached great importance to Wang Qifang's reception today, and did his homework early, he said unhurriedly: "According to the little foolish opinion, the second young grandmother can open a teahouse or a restaurant, and those female guests are tired of shopping around the shop, and they must want to find a place to rest; Second, if there are male customers who are accompanied, you can also solicit business from those male customers. ”
Wang Qifang's eyes lit up, and then said, "En, yes, yes, your brain is flexible enough."
“…… If we open the same shop as our neighbors, our shop is new, unless there is a novel supply and low price, it is difficult to compete with those old shops that have accumulated many years of credibility and reputation. Zhao Erlang heard the expectation in Wang Qifang's tone, and he was more confident, and he continued: "The little one thinks that instead of using his own shortcomings to compete with others' strengths, it is better to avoid his edge and open different types of shops. The small one believes that as long as the shop is cleaned up elegantly, and then talk about cooperation with the shops around it, let them help us publicize it more, even if it is a small teahouse, the money will not be less than that of the big satin village. ”
"Well, after listening to your words, it can be seen that you really put your heart into it,"
Thinking that when he first arrived in the bustling place of the capital, he was not busy walking around with his family to see the excitement, but he was able to scout the shops in various shops in a planned way, and actively asked about his future errands, all of the above is enough to see that Zhao Erlang has indeed put his mind to it and is determined to do a big job.
Wang Qifang nodded with satisfaction, took out a few pieces of white paper from the small table next to her and handed them to Mama Zhao, "Mama, give this to Brother Erlang and let him take a look."
"Hey" Mama Zhao saw that Qi Niang was very satisfied with her son, and she was also beautiful, so she hurriedly took the white paper, bypassed the screen, and handed over the things to her son with her own hands.
"Hiss~~" Zhao Erlang felt that his idea was novel enough, but he didn't expect that after reading the two white pieces of paper full of black characters handed over by Wang Qifang, he couldn't help but gasp. On these two pieces of paper, the focus of the store's operation, the style of decoration, and even if the promotion is done in the future, it is more detailed than what I boasted about.
"Hehe, how's it going? Is my plan viable? ”
Wang Qifang picked up the teacup, gently blew the tea leaves on the water, and asked in a soft tone.
"It's feasible, it's not just feasible, it's just wonderful, it's the most powerful shopkeeper of the Wang family, and he can't write such a detailed plan," Zhao Erlang read it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more he admired Wang Qifang, and he firmly believed in his choice. He said excitedly, "With the plan of the second young grandmother, the little one guarantees that the shop can be run vigorously." ”
"Okay," Wang Qifang took two sips of tea, "Now that the shop has just been taken back, and you haven't found a craftsman to rest, your next job is to find a craftsman, buy decoration materials, recruit guys, and then open again." During this period, I will not interfere in how you do it, and when it opens, I will accept the results. Do you have the confidence to do these jobs well? ”
"No, no problem" Zhao Erlang didn't expect Wang Qifang to completely hand over the shop to himself, he was so excited that he didn't know what to say, so he patted his chest and said, "If this errand is not done well, there is no need to punish the second young grandmother, and the little one will have no face to stay in the capital." You can rest assured, this small shop must be done well, and will never disappoint the second young grandmother."
"Well, okay," Wang Qifang nodded, then took out a silver ticket from her purse and handed it to Mama Zhao, asking her to hand it to Zhao Erlang, "This is three hundred taels of silver tickets, you take it to renovate the shop first, if it's not enough, then ask me for it." As for your salary, well, the shop hasn't opened yet, so I'll give you two taels a month for the time being. If the shop opens, let's talk about the specific amount in detail. Of course, don't worry, I will never treat you badly."
"Hehe, look at what the second young grandmother said, the little one came to you with his family, he just believes you."
Zhao Erlang excitedly took the silver ticket, carefully looked at the face value on it, and the bright red seal, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise again.
sent Zhao Erlang away, Wang Qifang signed a contract with Su Zijian, who had been waiting for a long time, and negotiated the details of the rehearsal of "Red Detachment of Women" together. After everything was negotiated and lunched, Wang Qifang busily took Mama Zhao and Ziyuan Zizhu to the West Market.
"Shopkeeper, just give her the silver ticket like this, what should the second young master do when he comes back and blame her?"
The young man watched Wang Qifang's carriage gradually drive away, and said worriedly.
"People take the owner's token to ask for the third quarter of the bonus silver, how dare I not give it? Alas, fortunately, the second young master will come back tomorrow, you send someone to guard the gate of the Zhao Mansion, and when you see the second young master coming back, come back quickly and tell me. ”
The shopkeeper stood in the doorway, his eyes fixed on the distant carriage. It was a full 13,000 taels of silver tickets, and it was so easily handed over to the second young grandmother, and he was worried in his heart.
I was afraid that the second young master, who had always been concerned about money, would come back and blame him, but if he didn't give it, the second young grandmother didn't come to ask for money with empty mouths, and he was holding the token of Zhao Ji Warehouse in his hand.
"Yes, the little one understands"
The young man nodded, he was also afraid, the second young master started a fire, it was amazing.
Back in the house, Wang Qifang was in a great mood and put the silver ticket into the treasure box and locked it.
"Qi Niang, let's just get the silver back, and the second young master will blame him when he comes back, so what's the matter?"
Witnessing how Wang Qifang got back the bonus silver, Mama Zhao couldn't help but ask with some concern.
"Well, Mama is right worried, you really have to guard against him," Wang Qifang nodded, and ordered: "Qingfeng, you send someone to the gate of the mansion to watch, and when the second young master's carriage enters the door, you must lead him to our courtyard." ”
"Yes, Second Young Grandma"
Qingfeng agreed, floated out of the door neatly, and went out to arrange.
In the afternoon of the next day, Zhao Tianqing's carriage slowly stopped in front of Zhao's house. The young man who was guarding the side saw the second young master get out of the carriage with his own eyes, so he ran back to the store to report the news.
And Ziyuan, who was guarding the door, saw that the second young master had stepped up the stone steps, and hurriedly flashed out, bent his knees to salute him, and said that he had "invited" Zhao Tianqing to the peony garden.
Entering the courtyard gate, Wang Qifang greeted the dusty Zhao Tianqing with a smile.
He ordered people to prepare bath water and food, and the whole yard was lively for a while.
After taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, Zhao Tianqing sat on the big kang by the window with her hair scattered, leaning sideways, teasing a pair of children.
Wang Qifang saw that it was dark outside, so she sent all the people in the house out, and when there were only four of them left in the house, she knelt down at Zhao Tianqing's feet with a puff, and said with a crying voice: "Second young master, the concubine has made a big mistake, ask the second young master for forgiveness."
