Chapter 316: The Leader
Wu Guogong's Mansion, the people up and down the mansion combined, there are fifty or sixty people. The cost of a month is also very large.
They all say that they are not at home, and they don't know the hard work of being a house.
But Zhou Zhengzheng understands very well that in charge of money, in addition to being careful, he must be clear.
Some money should be spent, and more should be spent, while some money should be picked a little, and what can be saved will be saved.
Just a few days after Zhou Zhengzheng helped the housekeeper, it was time to buy clothes for the big guy.
At this time of year, the people in the house have to make some new clothes.
At this time, cloth is not bought by a few horses, but by several carts and carts. It's just that Zhou Zhengzheng doesn't feel the need to be so extravagant and wasteful, because after a lot of clothes are made, they don't wear much at all.
As for Zhou Zheng himself, there are three new clothes made last year that have not been worn once.
After discussing with his mother Lin Yu, Zhou Zhengzheng also told his father Zhou Jinxuan his thoughts, but fortunately, his parents were very supportive of Zhou Zhengzheng.
Since then, Zhou Zheng has halved the number of cloths, and some old clothes that he didn't wear much have been taken out and changed, and they are a new one.
And for the sake of business, the cloth village that has already stored a lot of cloth has been pre-stored, and when it saw that the big business was getting smaller, they rushed to give gifts, but they were all rejected by Zhou Zhengzheng one by one.
Just this one adjustment, Zhou Zheng saved a hundred taels of silver, when the outside people thought that the new master of Zhou Zheng Zheng was a character to pick the door, Zhou Zheng and beyond everyone's expectations, in the nearby mountains, a lot of construction, built a wind and rain pavilion.
In the past, those who went up to the mountains to work or collect medicine had to hide in caves or under big trees when it rained, which was very dangerous, and several people died as a result.
Although everyone wants to have a wind and rain pavilion, no one has paid for it, after all, it is a lot of money.
"That's great! I didn't expect anyone to be willing to pay this money. A septuagenarian sighed, "After a lifetime of busy work in the mountains, I finally have a wind and rain pavilion to hide from the rain." ”
Those who said that Zhou Zheng was stingy before also changed their faces and gave Zhou Zheng a thumbs up.
The craftsmen responsible for the construction of the Wind and Rain Pavilion were going to erect a stone monument on the edge of the pavilion to commemorate the Wu State Mansion, but they were vetoed by Zhou Zhengzheng.
Zhou Zhengzheng has long looked down on these vain things.
In order to build this wind and rain pavilion, Zhou Zheng not only spent the one hundred taels of silver saved before, but also spent another hundred taels of silver, and this gap needs to be smoothed out by Zhou Zhengzheng.
These, when Zhou Zheng decided to build the Wind and Rain Pavilion, he had already thought about it, in addition to controlling the daily expenses in the Guogong Mansion, Zhou Zheng also had a set of open source methods.
On a refreshed morning, Zhou Zheng called Qingyun and Narcissus and followed him to the shop at home.
In addition to the inventory of each store, we also counted all the ledgers.
With such a large workload, Lin Yu could only check it once every six months or so before, but after Zhou Zheng took over, he implemented an inventory every month and calculated the account books at any time.
Zhou Zheng's action greatly reduced the waste and loopholes in the store.
And under Zhou Zhengzheng's attentive supervision, every month, he handed over an extra 300 taels of silver to the Duke of Wu's mansion.
"What, there are so many?" Lin Yu couldn't believe it, although he knew that there would be some cats in the stores, but he really didn't expect that there would be so many.
Lin Yu was originally worried that Zhou Zheng would be a little difficult, but he really didn't expect Zhou Zheng to be even more powerful than himself.
In addition, Zhou Zheng also sorted out and summarized the profitability of all stores, and some of them had good profitability, such as some large restaurants and inns, and Zhou Zhengzheng increased support to support the opening of branches of the shopkeepers.
For some stores with poor profitability, Zhou Zhengzheng will close the store, vacate the store, rent it to others, and collect rent.
Although the rent is not much, relative to the loss or basically flat state, the income from the rent has virtually increased the book balance of the Wu Guogong Mansion.
Imperial.
Spring is full of color, in the pond under the rockery, the new leaves on the branches and a few sparrows are reflected, in addition to the chirping of the sparrows, you can vaguely hear the calls of other birds, but I don't know what the name is.
Zhou Bin walked over with Lin Feng.
Lin Feng was wearing a light-colored narrow-sleeved short shirt, a pair of crotch trousers for horseback riding, and a pair of black leather boots on his feet.
Zhou Yunluo was wearing a snow-white auspicious cloud pattern undershirt, and a light blue long skirt outside, embroidered with pale pink red plums, and was standing in the depths of the flowers waiting.
Lin Feng instantly felt that it was Zhou Zheng standing in front of him, but after taking a closer look, he was extremely disappointed, "Since it's you." ”
"You're disappointed, aren't you?" Zhou Yunluo stared at Lin Feng affectionately, "King Qi, don't come unharmed." ”
Lin Feng said: "You shouldn't dress up like Zhou Zheng. ”
"Could it be that only Zhou Zheng can wear this dress?" Zhou Yunluo touched her dress, "With such an elegant dress, I can too." ”
"You're not like that." Lin Feng said, with a look of disdain.
"I don't need to be like Zhou Zhengzheng, how can she have my high status now." Zhou Yunluo sneered, "The emperor loves me, and the most powerful man in the world loves me." ”
Lin Feng said: "These, I'm not interested. Say, let me come, for what. ”
Zhou Bin smiled: "You talk, I'll go outside to control the wind." So he gave Zhou Yunluo a look and left.
Lin Feng found a stone and sat down.
Zhou Yunluo sighed, "King Qi, you still don't even want to look at me. ”
"You're now your father's woman, so let's settle down." Lin Feng was as cold as ice.
"I can't imagine that in your heart, I'm so restless, I'm just a casual woman." Zhou Yunluo was extremely disappointed and desperate.
Lin Feng said, "You're right. ”
"I thought, if we can cooperate, you help me become the queen, and I help you become the crown prince, will it be better than being an enemy?" Zhou Yunluo said.
Lin Feng said, "Why can you make me the crown prince?" Zhou Yi said the same thing back then, but in the end, Lin Feng not only couldn't become the prince, but he was no longer even the king of Qi.
Zhou Zheng used a little trick, and Lin Feng became the Marquis of Qi.
"If I am the queen and I am the master of the harem, won't the emperor listen to me? Besides, I don't have anyone to rely on, if I don't listen to you, you can pull me off again, won't you? ”
Lin Feng thought about it and smiled: "If you want to be the queen, it's not difficult, but unfortunately, the first one to oppose is Wu Guogong Zhou Jinxuan, if you can convince him, I will help you again, it will be very easy." ”
Zhou Yunluo gritted her teeth and said, "Why is he always opposed? It's too much. ”
