In the evening, Lan Yi took the two children back to the small courtyard of Wang Chengde's house.

"Dad, those maids and women, the old lady has disposed of them?" Those people were indifferent to seeing Wen Xuan and Yu'er being bullied, obviously because they were biased in the second room, and Old Madam Zhou would definitely not spare them.

Wang Chengde nodded, a little helpless, "They all rushed to Zhuangzi to do things, the old lady was very angry, your mother stayed in the back house tonight to serve." ”

Mrs. Zhou is nearly fifty years old, and she has been hit one after another in the past few years, and her body is not as good as before. Lan Yi asked worriedly: "Leave Wenxuan by the old lady's side, Tao'er is afraid that her old man will not be able to take care of Wenxuan's safety, if so, if it is ......"

Lan Yi's unfinished words, Wang Chengde didn't understand, but he couldn't tell his daughter.

Looking at Wang Chengde's sad face, Lan Yi didn't ask any more, she thought that the Wang family's father and son and Dao Wufeng must not have eaten yet, so she said, "Dad, my daughter is going to cook some food." ”

Wang Chengde shook his head and said, "Later, the shopkeeper of a few shops will come over to see Young Master Wenxuan, I will ask your brother to buy some food and come back, and Tao'er will take the young master and Yu'er to rest." ”

Shopkeeper? Lan Yi asked curiously, "Are they the three shops that belong to the uncle's private property?" ”

For the sake of these three shops, Wang Mingli looked around for jade pendants, Lan Yi and Wen Xuan almost had an accident because of this, and I heard that the business of these three shops was still good.

"These shops were purchased by the uncle for the eldest lady. The eldest lady is an orphan girl with no dowry, and the uncle is afraid that the eldest lady will be looked down upon, so he buys these three shops. The eldest lady didn't accept it after she found out, and later the uncle used the jade pendant that the eldest lady gave him to make a store pù token. ”

Wang Mingzhe has a keen eye for business, and these three shops are extremely profitable, namely rice grain shops, medicinal herb shops and silk villages, and the sources of goods of the three shops are contacted by Wang Mingzhe when he travels around, which is very safe and reliable. And the Tian Zhong shopkeeper of the rice grain shop, the Cui Dian shopkeeper of the medicinal herb shop, and the Zhou Zhen shopkeeper of the silk village were all brought out by Wang Mingzhe, and the three of them had a bad background and family background, especially Cui Dian, who was bought by Wang Mingzhe from the prisoner car, so the three of them were grateful to him and were very loyal. Now that Wang Mingzhe has gone, they only recognize Wang Wenxuan as the master, although he is still a child.

The business of these three shops was very good, and Lan Yi was afraid that they would have selfish intentions sooner or later, so she told Wang Chengde this idea.

Wang Chengde already knew some of the business his daughter was doing in Huang County, and knew that his daughter was quite talented in business, so he instructed: "These three people have signed a deed of sale, they are considered to be the eldest lady's dowry, and now the serious master is Young Master Wenxuan, if he really does the thing of a slave bully, Young Master Wenxuan can send them down as long as he finds evidence." ”

Lan Yi nodded, in this humble era, it is indeed safer to use his own slaves when doing business. But she doesn't appreciate this approach, at least as a modern person who advocates equality and freedom, she is very opposed to the repressive means of no human rights, relying on the fear of people to dare not resist, this kind of negative reinforcement means is effective, but it will also discourage people's enthusiasm.

Although I don't appreciate it, it is difficult to change this status quo, Lan Yi will try new methods, but she doesn't want to challenge the morality of this era, so she can only take her time.

Now, Lan Yi wanted to figure out a few things.

"Dad, was Wang Tiangui's death the fault of Wang Tiangui?"

Wang Chengde nodded: "When I got the news of Mrs. Cui's acute illness, my father and Wang Tiangui followed my uncle to talk about business in other places. At that time, he had already found that Wang Tiangui was inappropriate, and he also felt that Mrs. Cui was sick this time, so he asked me to take Yu Pei and the letter back to Wang's house to take care of it. ”

Lan Yi frowned: "Since the uncle already thinks that Wang Tiangui is inappropriate, how can he still ......" planted in his hands?"

At this time, Dao Wufeng returned. He walked straight to the hall, nodded to Wang Chengde and Lan Yi, and sat down at the table of the Eight Immortals and poured three glasses of water to drink, and the two little ones immediately came to his side and looked at him. The child's love came and went quickly, and because of Lan Yi's comfort, the events of the future did not leave any shadow on them.

"Wu Feng, what can I ask about?"

Dao Wufeng nodded, "I'll talk about it when Chunrong comes back." ”

Wang Chengde stopped asking him when he heard this, and then said to Lan Yi: "At that time, the uncle had already discovered that Wang Tiangui and Wang Mingli had private contacts, and he also saw that Wang Mingli had the intention of competing for family property. Uncle is not a stingy person, he just thinks that Wang Tiangui's small actions are to mix him up and make him unable to go home in time, Wang Mingli is at home to let go of his hands and feet to do something. The uncle was first worried about the situation of the old lady, the eldest lady and the young master, afraid that they would be wronged. ”

In fact, Wang Mingzhe thought that even Wang Chengde thought that Wang Mingli was several times worse at that time, and he did not expect that he would harm Wang Mingzhe's life. After all, the two of them grew up together, and their relationship is closer than that of their own brothers.

Lan Yi saw that Wang Chengde did not shy away from the blade, so he continued to ask: "Dad, why did Wang Mingli do this?" Is it just for money? ”

Wang Chengde hesitated, but still shook his head, "It's all old things." ”

Thinking of Wang Mingli's abnormal behavior when he went to Qingshan Valley to dig up Yirou's body three days ago, Lan Yi felt that it was not only an old thing, but also some reasons for this.

"Dad, he has killed his uncle, and he is ruthless to the big house. Now that Wen Xuan is back, will he attack Wen Xuan again? ”

Wang Chengde hesitated slightly, Wang Mingli's mind was weird, and it was really hard to guess, "Dad can't say it well, but he is sure that he likes these three shops in the uncle's hands." When the third master Wang Gezhi was very smart, on the surface he took away a few inconspicuous shops, but these shops were one, this year the third master Wang Mingshen ran the shop well, and many old customers of the Wang family were taken by him; Although Wang Mingli is not shallow, he is suspicious, and he is not good at doing things, so the business in his hands has suffered a lot of losses, and his father-in-law is not easy to fill, and his family is afraid that he is about to be emptied, and he urgently needs silver to fill the gap. ”

It's easy to do it if you lack money, Lan Yi is afraid that he doesn't want money and just wants his life.

"Dad, if you want to take away these three shops, do you have to hold Wenxuan first?"

Wang Chengde nodded.

Lan Yi frowned and said: "It's really not good, let's transfer the three shops away, give him an empty shelf, and dispel his worries." ”

Wang Chengde disagreed, "These shops are the last bit of effort of the uncle, and they can't be wasted like this." Young Master Wenxuan still has to rely on the income of these three shops, and the deficit of the big house is now much more than that of the second room. ”

Lan Yi wanted to say that she could earn it again when the silver was gone, but now was not the time. She only advised: "After the return of the three shopkeepers later, if you talk about the future arrangements, Dad will stabilize them first, and my daughter still has some ideas, so I will tell my father when I am free." ”

Although he didn't know what his daughter wanted to do, Wang Chengde still responded.

At this moment, Wang Chunrong and the shopkeeper of the three stores arrived one after another.

The three of them are all over 30 years old, fat and thin, and their demeanor is safe, which makes people feel at ease. The three of them saluted Wen Xuan first, and then inspected the jade pendant that Wang Chengde took out, and officially recognized the master.

The three of them first talked about the business of the shop they managed, and handed over the account book to Wen Xuan, naturally Wang Chengde was Wen Xuan's subordinate. Wang Chengde was Wang Mingzhe's confidant butler, he had not sold his master in prison for more than a year, and this time Young Master Wenxuan was able to return safely thanks to his daughter Chun Tao, so the three of them admired and thanked him, and now he helped the young master take care of the business, and they also took it for granted, and there was nothing to be angry about.

Then Wang Chunrong set up a meal, and the six of them dined together, except for the knife and no blade, the conversation was very harmonious. Lan Yi thinks that Wang Mingzhe is a very powerful person, at least a powerful entrepreneur, who can recruit talents, has a unique vision, and with the assistance of these people, Wenxuan will at least not lack silver.

After the three of them left, Wang Chengde said that he had something to discuss with Wang Mingrong and Dao Wufeng, and handed the account book to Lan Yi and asked her to take a look at it first.

Because these three stores are dealing in goods shipped from afar, the sales are good and the supply is stable, and it is difficult for others to intervene in the competition, so the business is not bad. Lan Yi looked at the account book carefully, although the three shopkeepers all said that because of Wang Mingzhe's death, the situation was unclear, and their business in the past two years had not further expanded for the sake of stability, but the profit was still considerable from the books.

The medicinal herb shop is the highest, not counting last year, only this year has earned a thousand taels of silver, and the other two have more than 700 taels. Before the end of the year, it was the time when the silk and grain shops were shipped, and the total profit of the three stores this year was at least more than 3,000 taels. Lan Yi calculated in her heart that if one or two pieces of silver were equivalent to a thousand yuan, this would be a net profit of at least more than three million yuan a year, no wonder Wang Mingli was worried.

The shopping mall is like a battlefield, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. The gratitude of the three shopkeepers to Wang Mingzhe will be partially transferred to Wenxuan, but it will fade after a long time, so Lan Yi thinks that it is better to implement a modern professional manager system, and establish a sound internal supervision and incentive mechanism on the basis of a strong psychological contract, give them a certain percentage of the share, and let them run the shop with their hearts It is right.

She drafted a complete set of plans and handed them to Wang Chengde, who fell into deep thought after reading them carefully. The daughter's approach is not new, and the owner of Da Zhou also gives the store manager a share, but the daughter gives a larger proportion; The novelty is that the "psychological contract" and supervision method proposed by the daughter are safe and not time-consuming, which is an excellent idea.

Even if the two fathers and sons soaked in the shop every day, it was difficult to ensure that the shopkeeper was selfish, so it should be feasible to sign a gentleman's agreement according to their daughter's practice and promise heavy profits.

Wang Chunrong also read Lan Yi's draft, he looked at his calm and calm sister in front of him, she used to just follow her mother and coquettish her in the past two years, she has grown up rapidly, and she is more long-term and thoughtful than she thinks, so that he is a big brother is very pressured, and it is really impossible to say that he will not do something without throwing his shoulders.

The three of them discussed for a long time, and revised and perfected the agreement and formally drafted it, which was divided into two percent according to Lan Yi's meaning, and Wang Chengde changed it to one percent. According to the actual situation in Meixian County and the income of the shopkeepers of each store, Yicheng is already much higher, and as the store pù operates better, their share will increase, which is already attractive enough for these three people.

In these years, if they do things that betray their masters and seek wealth, they will be severely punished, and with this share of good deeds, they can also stabilize their minds and do things seriously.

In the end, Lan Yi still built a store if the annual profit growth exceeded 30%, and the three of them would be rewarded with more than half a percent, and they could make full decisions about the affairs of the store, but the three stores and Wang Chengde and his son had to meet regularly to communicate the situation, and it was best to discuss any major matters.

Wang Chengde now feels that his daughter's shrewdness is his true inheritance, and the pride and pride of being a father are high, and he puffs up his chest and praises Lan Yi for being powerful, and he has educated himself well, Wang Chunrong pouts when he sees it. R1152
