After meeting him, Fang Xin ordered the newcomers to be arranged, and let them retreat, and He Yao also arranged a banquet below, and gave the child to the nurse to take with him.

Fang Xin saw it, and at this time, there were only a few masters left in the family, so he said with a smile: "The manpower in the house is almost the same, the soldiers in the house are also members of our family, and they will all marry wives and have children in the future, this is also a household registration, and the daughter-in-law and children in the future must also be arranged properly, so there are enough people." ”

The old lady nodded and said, "What my son said is that it is too much, and it will be blessed." ”

"It's not necessarily a blessing, the child's earned work, the mother can enjoy it with peace of mind, is it possible to enjoy the son's fortune, but also the mother's blessing?" Fang Xin said: "However, there are only five soldiers in the government now, and it will be expanded to ten people in the future, and these ten people are ten households, and it will naturally slowly expand to hundreds of people in the future, and this scale is almost enough." ”

"Well, here is a last sentence, these five people are not ordinary, they are the warriors who saved the child in that battle, and they can't be regarded as slaves, understand?" Fang Xin said in advance, these five people have extraordinary lives, and they are not people who can be slaves for a long time.

"I'll find out." All three wives should have said.

"yes, speaking of which, I heard that my son is still injured, but does it matter?" The old lady He said hurriedly.

"My son has come back thousands of miles, what does it matter, it's just a little injured." Fang Xin hurriedly said.

"Since it is to save the child's life, it is naturally different, the family is bigger, you also have a charter, so that He Yao can have a rule of law." The old lady seemed to remember something. said.

"This. It's also easy, so let's do it, Mother, you have three maids or daughters-in-law to serve you, and your wife is equal. If you have a concubine, you have one, and when the child is older, you will get one each, and the old lady will get twenty taels of silver in a month. The wife gets fifteen taels. A flat wife gets ten taels, and if she has a concubine, she gets five taels. ”

"As for the subordinates, the government soldiers are two and a half in January, the housekeeper is two and a half in January, the foreman, one and a half in January, one or two big girls in each room, and the following is five hundred yuan." Fang Xin thought for a moment. That's it.

After listening, before others could make a calculation, Lan Ji had already stopped talking, but Fang Xin saw it and said with a smile: "Lan Ji." It's all my own family. Let's hear it! ”

"Husband, that's the case. The expenditure in the house, together with money and rice, silk clothes per house, plus personal contacts, costs one hundred and eighty taels of silver a month, is it a little more? Lan Ji said: "This has formed a rule, and if you want to reduce it in the future, it will be difficult, and people will gossip." ”

When the old lady He Shi heard this, she gasped and said, "It's almost two hundred taels of silver a month, it's too much, if you don't reduce it, I won't need twenty taels of silver a month." ”

"Mom, this is customized in the house in the future, the rules are different, it lies in the money, so how many acres do you want to balance the expenses in the house?" Fang Xin said a word, and then asked He Yao again.

He Yao couldn't figure it out, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Maybe two or three thousand acres!" ”

Fang Xin sighed a little, among the three wives, Lan Ji has martial arts, is proficient in writing and ink, and has a good family, and calculates clearly, in comparison, the He family sisters are really difficult to compare, no wonder the power in the family slowly fell into the hands of Lan Ji.

He didn't ask Lan Ji at the moment, and said: "Now for every two acres of fertile land, you can collect one or two taels of silver a year, if you want to balance the expenses, you need 4,000 acres of fertile land, if you are more generous, you need 5,000 acres." ”

"Sister, husband, my father has already said that he will transfer his 2,500 acres to my family, and there are 500 acres, keep them for himself, and give them to the clan in the future." He Rong is also a smart person, so he said immediately.

"Juetian's 500 acres cannot be bought and sold, and it is counted among them." Fang Xin didn't say much, and said, "How many fields does our family have?" How much money is left in the account? ”

"A few years ago, my husband bought some land, and someone gave me some, and now he has 1,200 acres of land." He Yao still knew this, and hurriedly said: "Last time, I gave my husband three thousand taels of silver at once, and the family has about five hundred taels of silver, but the hotel pharmacy also has five hundred taels of silver a year, and I was still checking the accounts last time, and in a few days, I will hand over the silver." ”

A few years ago, Fang Xin also let his subordinates, not only completed several big businesses, but also opened a restaurant, two pharmacies, and a textile workshop business, otherwise the money would not come so quickly. "I also brought back one hundred and fifty taels of silver and some goods, all into the account room, these three thousand taels I still have some use, so I won't take it out, in fact, now this situation, it is almost done, to be practical, I found a recipe, if it is done, not only can you medicine countless people, accumulate some merits, but also make the family worry-free, as for the field, buy some more, full of five or six thousand acres, it's okay, more than 10,000 acres, the court should pay attention, don't break this threshold." Fang Xin said to himself.

He brought a formula similar to Yunnan Baiyao, the world has not yet, naturally there will be countless wealth in the future, and selling it at a slightly reduced price is a meritorious deed, and there are countless doctors, although it is a transaction, there is not much merit, but it can not withstand the fine water and direct water, and it can also make the family have a deep foundation and long luck.

In fact, the speed at which he makes money is already very fast, and the idle officials rely on making money to buy land, even if they are greedy, it is difficult to earn 50,000 taels of silver worth four years, and he is quiet, does not show the landscape, and he has become a wealthy family from the top 50 of Jiangfu, which can be regarded as a skill.

"As for the maid Dai Bei, who I brought in newly, you give her five taels of silver a month, this woman is not usual, she doesn't have to restrain her with the rules of the house, she wants to go there by her, food and lodging treatment, and compare it to the concubine." Fang Xin thought about it, and then deliberately commanded.

"My son, is this a new concubine?"

"No, she is a foreigner, but the reception should be polite, daily etiquette, if she is willing, it is natural, if she is unwilling, don't care about her, such as a row of seats, above the slaves, there is a reward at the end of the year, and it is also divided according to the treatment of concubines, now everyone understands?" Fang Xin bit the focus of the three words of the foreign family, and the people present suddenly didn't know why this happened, but everyone understood the proportion.

"Also, let's make it clear today, He Yao's son is my eldest son, as long as he is not too stupid and can't get on the stage, this business, the title in the future, is his, and everyone can't fight again."

At this time, Lan Ji hurriedly got up and knelt down: "Husband, Lan Ji never dares to have the heart to fight for the heir!" ”

She was born in Luhou Mansion, she knows that it is powerful, this husband seems to be bland, but it is unfathomable, only a few years, she started from scratch, earned a lot of foundation, and now has a title, I don't know where she will go in the future, the house is fighting, it is dangerous and abnormal, she can't be careful.

"Isn't this just a statement, take precautions!" Fang Xin took a sip of tea and said, "You get up, listen to me together, I was knighted, the emperor gave me the knighthood, have you heard of it?" ”

"I heard that the mansion is really big, let's go and see it first." Everybody is talking.

"Well, early tomorrow morning, I will first visit my mentor Shen Mansion and know Lord Shen Dannian, just bring fifty taels of gift boxes, and my room master and seat master will also send someone to send a New Year's gift, don't be lazy, and then I will go to see the prefect, after all, he is still the parent official of this mansion!" Fang Xin said plainly, now he is six grades, compared to the prefect, one grade worse, but he is a Hanlin attendant, and he is a knight, enough to fight the court, if you are modest, you only need to visit first, and then give it away: "Then it is to read out the holy decree, officially register in the prefect's mansion, and move to the emperor's mansion, presumably the nearby officials will give a gift, which must be recorded one by one." ”

Speaking of this, He Yao's face turned a little pale, she was born in a family of the owner of the land, in fact, if she was the wife of a petty official, it would be more than enough to deal with it, but now, it has exceeded her ability, this high-ranking official comes and goes, thousands of things, human dealings, there are rules of proportion, and if there is a difference, it will make people laugh.

She has been a wife for three years, but she already understands this, she originally insisted, it was nothing more than for her son's plan, but then she heard her husband clearly announce that her son was the heir, and her heart fell into a big stone, and she just said with a wry smile: "This kind of contact, I can't do it well, it's better for Sister Lan Ji to deal with it, how about it?" ”

"That's it, this is still up to you, you take care of the acres of land and the use of the inner tent room, Lan Ji, the external business, the outer tent room, you will take care of it, and when I move to the new Jue Mansion, this old mansion is not bad, together with the five hundred acres of land nearby except for the Jue Field, it will be left to Li Ningwen to inherit, as for my daughter, I will also plan for her in the future." Fang Xin said, this can be regarded as officially setting a charter for this family and dividing the inheritance.

"Yes, husband!" The ladies had nothing to say, so they answered.

After saying that half a day, at this time the table has been at the mercy of the stop, at the moment, they will eat together, at this time, the status of women is not as low as the Ming and Qing dynasties on the earth, they can eat together.

A table, in the middle is the hot pot, surrounded by stir-fried vegetables, Fang Xin's accidental work, now popular, I heard that even the imperial capital, are used, especially in the cold weather, especially the banquet, usually cold, wait a while, it will be cold, a lot of defeat, now it is naturally suitable.

It's just that now the hot pot is not simple, it uses smokeless charcoal and exquisite silver pot, the charcoal at the bottom of the pot is blazing, the slightest hot air sprays out from the lid of the pot, and the aroma is scattered, and around, pheasants, mutton, ducks, shredded chickens, small steamed buns, etc., the family went up, and when they saw that there was no eldest son Li Ningwen, Fang Xin asked.

"He's still young, let him be seven years old before he comes to the table, this is also the rule!" Lan Ji said.

Fang Xin heard this, remembered the rule that Da Chu was not considered to die at the age of seven, so he had no choice but to say, "Then be it!" ”
