Chapter 408: The Prince
"Put this spice at the door," Zhang Bihua pointed and said, "On the rainy days recently, this spice can make him feel more comfortable." ”
Soon, the people in the store were set up according to Zhang Bihua's requirements.
And Zhang Bihua is not idle, looking east and west, always wanting to find something wrong.
Everyone in Qingxiangzhuang is very afraid of Zhang Bihua coming to see, because they will always be scolded, and they all want Zhang Bihua to come over to help take a look, because as long as Zhang Bihua adjusts the store, business will be better immediately, and everyone likes the heavy silver taels.
"You have to swing and swing a lot of tricks in order to make the business work." Before leaving, Zhang Bihua did not forget to explain a few words.
After leaving this Qingxiang Village, Zhang Bihua took a few servants and went to a newly opened Qingxiang Village to have a look.
This is also Zhang Bihua's habit, counting from the first Qingxiang Village, Zhang Bihua has been to twenty-five Qingxiang Villages, and this is the twenty-sixth.
For the development of Qingxiangzhuang, Zhang Bihua can be said to have paid everything, people who don't know the truth think that Qingxiangzhuang is Zhang Bihua's alone, and Zhang Bihua does treat Qingxiangzhuang as his own child and devotes himself wholeheartedly.
A month later, in the mansion of Wu Guogong.
On the coffee table, the smell of steaming tea is overflowing, and a plate of fruit is placed on the side, which contains peanuts, plums, and some pastries.
Zhou Zhengzheng was wearing a crimson Luo robe and sat against the Taishi chair, while opposite, Zhang Bihua was wearing a pale green dress, but his back was straight and he looked a little stiff. In front of Zhang Bihua, there was also a bunch of account books.
"Bihua, thank you for your hard work." The corners of Zhou Zhengzheng's mouth rose slightly, and he said to Zhang Bihua with a smile.
"Now that you're sitting with me, you can rest well, and let's have a cup of tea together."
After Zhou Zhengzheng finished speaking, he also pushed the fruit plate in front of Zhang Bihua.
Zhang Bihua smiled, her body relaxed suddenly, and her slightly tense face became much more natural.
"Tell me about what interesting things happened along the way." Zhou Zhengzheng took a sip of tea and looked at Zhang Bihua expectantly.
After staying in the capital for a long time, Zhou Zhengzheng also wanted to hear some new things outside the capital.
"Well, I really don't know what to say at this moment," Zhang Bihua paused for a while, and then continued: "It's just that yesterday I met a man named Hanako outside the city gate, and he happily ate a chicken wrapped in mud."
"Oh, that's Hanako's luck, how many people haven't had a chance to eat it." Zhou Zhengzheng tried hard to imagine that picture, and couldn't help but sigh.
One after another, Zhou Zhengzheng asked a lot about the outside, but he didn't ask about Qingxiangzhuang.
In the back, it was Zhang Bihua who pushed the account book in front of Zhou Zhengzheng before starting the relevant reporting work.
"Zheng, look at it, this is the account book of Qingxiangzhuang in Dongyi County."
The ledger was remembered clearly, and there was not even a place where it had been altered, so Zhou Zheng took a look at it and closed it.
"Let's talk about it briefly, there are so many ledgers, how can I read them alone."
"Okay, I'll tell you." Zhang Bihua sorted out the account books again, and began to report the situation of Qingxiangzhuang's stores across the country to Zhou Zhengzheng.
"This is from Dongyi County," Zhang Bihua said to the account book in a very orderly manner, "I made a profit of one hundred taels last month, but the store is a little small, and it is difficult to make a breakthrough in business, so I suggest finding another big store." ”
"Yes, just do as you say." Before Zhang Bihua's words fell, Zhou Zhengzheng nodded.
"Okay, then I'll have someone look for it right away." Zhang Bihua said while still recording in the notebook, and the writing was also upright.
"There is also this one, Xichuan County, the new incense products did not sell well last month, I think I should send someone to stay for a while, so as to help the foil,"
"I remember that the shopkeeper of Enxi County is a very strong woman, and she has to help her, so she will do what you say." Zhou Zhengzheng nodded again and said.
"Okay, then I'll arrange it."
"There is also this ......" Zhang Bihua was interrupted by Zhou Zhengzheng before she could start speaking.
"Bihua, the rest, don't report anymore."
Zhang Bihua looked at Zhou Zheng in surprise, "What's the matter, didn't I do anything well?" ”
"How could it be. In the world, except for you, there is no one else who can manage Qingxiangzhuang well. Zhou Zhengzheng said with a smile: "In the future, Qingxiangzhuang will be taken care of by you, and you don't have to report to me anymore."
"How can this be, this Qingxiangzhuang is your ......" Zhang Bihua resolutely refused.
"I believe in you! No one loves Qingxiangzhuang more than you. Zhou Zhengzheng looked at Zhang Bihua's eyes and said sincerely.
Zhang Bihua was a little moved, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly. I wanted to say something, but I didn't know what to say all of a sudden.
"Okay, you don't have to say anything, it's settled." Zhou Zhengzheng looked at Zhang Bihua's eyes and nodded. Seeing that Zhou Zheng had made up his mind, Zhang Bihua didn't say anything anymore.
It's just in vain, Zhang Bihua feels that the burden on his shoulders is a lot heavier, and many people rely on Qingxiangzhuang to live.
And Zhou Zhengzheng had already guessed Zhang Bihua's hesitation, so he encouraged: "I will still go to the store when I have time, if you need me, you just have to speak."
In the street, a few children were chasing and playing with slingshots, but instead of catapulting in the street, they were going to a small hill nearby, where there were many birds chirping in the woods.
The prince drove to the outside of the city, and this trip was to go to the Great Xiangguo Temple to pray for the blessings of the people.
There was a drought in the northwest, there was no rain throughout the spring, and all the rice fields in the northwest withered, and the people had no food to eat.
However, suddenly, a woman rushed out of the street and stopped in front of the prince's carriage.
"Yu!" The coachman hurriedly pulled the horse.
"Who is so bold as to alarm the prince's car?" The coachman shouted.
The woman was wearing a crimson Luo shirt, on her head, two draped jade hairpins were inserted left and right, and on her earlobes, there were two red pomegranate-like agate, transparent and shiny, kneeling in front of the carriage, "Ask the prince to save the little girl." The little woman's name is Du Lingling. ”
What the? The prince lifted the curtain and looked at the woman in front of him, "You are Du Lingling?" ”
Du Lingling nodded, "Exactly." ”
The prince said: "You go to the East Palace with Gu first and then talk, it's inconvenient on the street." ”
"Yes." Du Lingling got up, looked up and saw the prince, wearing a white pipa placket with thin dots, at the cuffs, there was a circle of red water ripples, embroidered with swaswast patterns on the shoulders, and it was connected to the placket, so elegant and noble, sighed, worthy of Lin Zhongchao's father, and his appearance was also superior.
