No wonder Luo Sheng is puzzled, not everyone has the ability to eat this mouthful of food, thinking that Xie Teng and his wife would rather collect a few dead rents than let go of their hands, Xie Wan is now a lion with a big mouth, and he wants to open five shops at once, and anyone will be a little uncertain.

But if you think about it from another angle, they live in the house, and they save one or two hundred taels of silver every year. What's more, it is still unfolding one after another. Since you have a chance of success, why not give it a try?

Hold up the bold, starve the faint-hearted.

Xie Wan took out a silver ticket worth five hundred taels and said, "You can go to Huangshi Town now to have a look, and if there is a good lot, you can take it down." Now it's the hot season, don't miss it in vain, after the plate is ready, move some goods from Plum Hutong. Then the five hundred taels of silver here were first taken to replenish the goods and fill the warehouse. ”

Although it is distressing to sell so much inventory at a low price, the fashionable colors of this year may not be popular next year, and it is easy to get moldy in the spring, so it is safer to turn it into ready-made silver than to pile it up in the warehouse.

Luo Sheng stared at her for a long time, and saw that her eyes were firm, not like a joke, so he had to come down: "I don't know what to do with those two guys in Lizi Hutong?" ”

Last time, after Xie Wan took people to transport more than 20 pieces of cloth from under the noses of the guys, there has been no report from the shop so far, Xie Wan said: "These two people can't stay." You will take the inventory books in the warehouse tomorrow to count the points, and let them pay for the missing ones to make up for them, and the dismissal that can't make up for them. ”

Twenty pieces of cloth were worth at least sixty or seventy taels of silver, and if they could get it at every turn, why should they come out as men? This is just to make them go better, lest they be caught by the owner for taking money and not working, and it will be difficult to find another errand in the future.

Luo Sheng said: "Then you have to hire another person." Qinghe County is easy to do, the small ones can be watched at any time, but what can I do in Huangshi Town? ”

Xie Wan said: "I've thought about it at this level, although Huangshi Town is beyond the reach of the whip, we are relatively familiar. You can ask your acquaintances to find a few clever women to do the business. In short, we set the reserve price per foot of cloth, approve the monthly sales volume, if they can complete this amount, and can sell at a higher price than the reserve price, then the extra money is theirs, we should cultivate their enthusiasm, and then think about it in the long run. ”

Asking the shopkeeper is not something that can be done in three or two days, and in the future, she wants to recruit her subordinates and cultivate a group of henchmen, but things have to come step by step, right?

Luo Sheng groaned and said, "Since the girls have already calculated, the little one will go down and handle it." ”

Still worried.

Xie Wan smiled: "The road is slippery in the rain, pay attention to safety." ”

At noon, the rain began to fall heavily.

Yuxue boiled the lily porridge, took a porcelain soup cup with azure crackles after the rain and packed it, and then accompanied it with a small spoon of the same texture, and went to the breeze courtyard with Xie Wan wearing clogs.

Huang was sleeping, Mama Qi took the soup cup and thanked her, so she lightly led Xie Wan to the back of the blue yarn cabinet, where Xie Wei was writing and accompanied. Xie Wei got up and took her hand and said, "It's raining so hard, what are you doing here?" Look at the pants are wet, come here and bake. ”

There was a copper-footed stove under the bookcase, Xie Wan sat down and put the bipod on the stove with a smile.

Because there is only a layer of gauze between her and Huang's, she can't frolic so as not to wake her up, and it just so happened that Xie Wei saw that Xie Wan was wearing a rose-colored jacket with fine willow trim today, and the stitches were very exquisite, like the popular magnolia style this year, so the two lay face to face on the couch and chatted about needlework. Xie Wei estimated that Xie Wan didn't understand much, and Xie Wan was careful not to show his feet, chatting and chatting sleepy, so he yawned and closed his eyes.

In the haze, I heard Huang on the other side of the veil turn over and asked, "Is it who is coming?" ”

Mama Qi hurriedly said: "It's the third girl who came, and she boiled porridge to come to see you, and now I'm taking a nap with Sister Wei in the blue yarn cupboard." ”

When Xie Wan heard what he said, he immediately came to his senses. When she opened her eyes, she saw that Xie Wei's two eyelashes fell on her lower eyelids, like two rows of long brushes resting on the jade plate, and she was sleeping peacefully, so she continued to close her eyes for fear of waking her.

Huang sat up. The voice said in a low voice: "Brother Yun hasn't come back yet?" ”

Mama Qi said: "In a few days, it will be Laba, and my wife asked people to make some pastries, ready to be sent to the houses close to them." At this time, I called my buddies in the upper room, and discussed who should assign them to whose house to give gifts. ”

Huang's voice became eager: "Don't let Brother Yun go to Ren's house!" Probably because she was in too much of a hurry, she coughed twice after speaking. Mama Qi hurriedly stepped forward to stroke her back, and the sound of clothes came intermittently.

If you don't let Xie Yun go to the Ren family, you don't want to be very close to the Ren family? Judging from the urgency of the Huang family, can this also be explained that the relationship with the Ren family is what she is most concerned about at the moment?

The corners of Xie Wan's lips curled slightly, it seemed that she had guessed correctly, Huang's illness was because Xie Rong reprimanded her in the letter for not being smart and going down the road to attaching to the nobles. Moreover, Xie Rong's attitude must be very tough.

"Grandma, don't worry, Brother Yun is on the rise right now, in front of his wife, I'm afraid it won't be easy to persuade him to come back." Mama Qi spoke again, "Moreover, so many brothers, it doesn't necessarily mean that Brother Yun picked the Ren family." ”

Huang Shi paused slightly, and suddenly sneered: "She is so eccentric about the long house, then let Brother Hua'er go!" You go to the room and look at it, Brother Yun and the son of the Ren family are good, don't let him invite this errand by himself. ”

Mama Qi went out.

Xie Wan didn't have to think deeply to guess that the "she" in Huang's mouth meant the Wang family, but the house said that the Wang family respected the three grandmothers very much, but the Huang family said that the Wang family was eccentric and long-housed, could it be that it wasn't actually what she heard?

In his previous life, because he didn't live in the Xie Mansion, he really didn't know much about the internal relationship between the Wang family and the girls of the two houses. She recalled the time when her uncle and aunt came to negotiate with Xie Qigong, and the Huang family never came forward, was she really sick and couldn't come to the door? Or are you deliberately avoiding it?

She remembered that in her previous life, when she died, the Huang family was still firmly in the position of the old lady of the pavilion, in charge of the middle feed and general affairs of the entire house, and she had never heard of any discomfort and illness, so it seems that Huang's physique should be excellent, and the funeral of her parents at that time was also handled by the Wang family and Pang Fu, and the Huang family is just a trivial matter, where is it that he will not come to bed for ten days?

In this way, there is a good chance that they are avoiding getting involved in this matter.

Did she know that the Wang family was working on the second property, so she avoided it for fear of ruining Xie Rong's reputation?

Since the Huang family was able to write to ask Xie Rong before showing goodwill to the Guangenbo Mansion through the Ren family, it can be seen that the two of them are still of the same mind. If she avoided it because she knew the inside story, then Xie Rong should have known it from her mouth. With Xie Rong's person, if he knew, he would definitely stop the Wang family. His target is in the temple, and he doesn't even disdain to climb the nobles, how could he hurt his feathers because of the property of the second room?

But the Wang family is not stupid, she doesn't know her own son's temperament? Xie Rong returned home for only five days to mourn, and Wang knew that Xie Rong would stop him, so naturally he would not reveal it to him. Later, when the Huang family learned about this layer and told Xie Rong again, he had already returned to Jingshi, and it was too late to stop him.

And it was precisely because Xie Rong didn't know at the time that the Wang family was able to successfully persuade Xie Qigong to agree to keep Xie Lang and them.

From this point of view, with Xie Rong's current love for his reputation, it is actually beneficial to Xie Wan and his brother. At least three years after him, before he entered the Hanlin Academy and became an editor, he could still be used by Xie Wan to contain the Wang family.

And among the women, Huang's avoidance not only shows Xie Rong's attitude towards this matter, but also shows that she is also guarding against Wang, no matter how she knows how to be a woman after all, a woman will be cautious, so she is very likely to have ears and eyes next to the "eccentric" Wang - otherwise, how would she know Wang's plans for the second room? And, will he openly show his love to Xie Wan?

She personally took Xie Wan to the upper room to ask for peace, which was an attitude to make a stand to the Wang family and Changfang.

Xie Wan was very happy, at least because she took the initiative to hand out the steps to the Huang family, so that the Huang family had to accept the trick and use the second room to put pressure on the long room. With Xie Qigong's attention to the third room, in the past few years before Xie Rong still needed Xie Wan and his brother to maintain their reputation, their brother and sister, who were chess pieces, at least didn't have to worry about the cost of eating.

Otherwise, with the Wang family's money-only temperament, can they endure it for a while, and can they endure it for a few years without harsh them under various names?

Xie Wei rolled over and sat up.

Xie Wan rubbed his eyes and yawned and got up.

Huang whispered Sister Wei in front, and the two walked out one after the other, and Huang smiled: "Sister Wan is also awake." Did you sleep well? ”

Xie Wan leaned over, leaned on the edge of her bed and said, "I had a dream, I dreamed that the third aunt took me and my eldest sister to the street to eat delicious food." Then as if he suddenly remembered, he said, "I asked Yuxue to boil lily porridge for the third aunt!" I put a lot of lotus seeds, and eating this is useful for reducing fever. Once upon a time, when I was sick, my mother boiled this for me to eat. The third aunt is going to eat it! ”

She carefully picked up the soup cup, opened it and sniffed it, and said, "It's still hot!" ”

Huang took it with a smile and said, "The third aunt received Sister Wan'er's heart, and her illness is half healed!" ”

Xie Wei also smiled and picked up Xie Wan and said, "The second uncle has lived outside for so many years, I didn't know that the third sister was so careful and considerate!" ”

The three of them laughed for a while, and after Huang ate most of the lily porridge, his spirit improved. I don't know if it's the credit of this porridge, or if it's not very serious at all.
