A month later. Ying Tian Castle, Imperial Palace.

Hu Changan looked at the tender green potato seedlings in the field and couldn't help but smile with joy.

Under the careful care of Hu Changan and the three old farmers, the potatoes planted in the field finally sprouted!

Growing potatoes, the hardest time has passed.

Next, just apply regular pesticide fertilization and wait for the potatoes to grow in the ground.

Hu Changan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Plan the first step, and you'll be done!

Next, it's time to go out of the palace and inspect the industry.

I haven't seen him for a month, and I don't know how the shopkeeper Chen has run the grocery store.

Hu Changan checked the waist card in his pocket again, and went all the way out of the imperial city.

Stepping out of the palace, the solemn atmosphere of the royal family was swept away, and the atmosphere of the bustling market was blowing in the face.

In Yingtian City, everything is still so prosperous.

Vendors along the street shouted and sold their wares, people in cloth clothes came and went on the street, and from time to time a few horse-drawn carriages dotted the pedestrians and walked unhurriedly.

Hu Changan stretched his waist widely, took a deep breath of the fresh air outside the palace, and walked slowly towards the Hu grocery store in Xinjiekou.

......

In the early morning, there are not many pedestrians on the street, and many shops along the street have not yet opened.

However, Hu's grocery store was already crowded, and there was already a long line in front of the counter, almost everyone with several bars of soap in their hands.

Shopkeeper Chen stood behind the counter, his hands were busy.

Rao used the Arabic numerals that the young master had taught before, and Shopkeeper Chen still felt too busy.

Helplessly, although the speed of accounting has been improved, there are too many customers every day, and even people from Suzhou and Yangzhou next door come to buy soap.

Shopkeeper Chen was busy when he was suddenly tapped on the shoulder.

"I'm busy, I'll talk about something." Shopkeeper Chen thought it was a guy in the store, so he continued to settle accounts without raising his head.

"Shopkeeper Chen, it's me, let's see what's going on in the store."

Hearing the familiar voice, Shopkeeper Chen looked up in surprise, almost unable to believe his eyes.

It's the young master!

Since the master went to Songjiang Mansion, the Hu Mansion has suddenly lost its backbone.

At this moment, the young master went into the palace to plant potatoes again, and there was no real person in the entire huge Hu Mansion.

As the saying goes, the tiger is not at home, and the monkey is called the king.

A few stewards acted in an embarrassed manner, dominating the property of the Hu Mansion and wantonly collecting money, and vigorously suppressing the subordinates who were loyal to the lord's family.

Among them, Shopkeeper Chen was the most severely suppressed.

After all, before leaving, the young master handed over the most profitable soap business to Shopkeeper Chen, and several stewards wanted to secretly get a piece of the pie, but they were severely rejected by Shopkeeper Chen.

The stewards naturally held a grudge and suppressed the shopkeeper Chen in different ways.

Now that the grocery store is so busy, the stewards not only did not recruit additional people, but also resigned the original two old guys in the store, resulting in only the shopkeeper Chen and a slope foot in the store being busy, not to mention how hard the days were.

Now, the young master is finally back!

Shopkeeper Chen was naturally greatly relieved.

Now that the young master is back, presumably those things that eat inside and outside will not be arrogant for long.

Shopkeeper Chen hurriedly put down the pen and paper, beckoned the guy at the foot of the slope to come over to take his position, and greeted Hu Changan to inspect the store diligently.

Hu Changan saw the scene of chaos in the store, and couldn't help but wonder: "Shopkeeper Chen, this store is so busy, don't you recruit a few more guys?" ”

When Shopkeeper Chen heard this, he seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, and hurriedly spit out his bitterness, telling all kinds of evil deeds of several stewards.

When Hu Changan heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked.

It seems that we have to get rid of these Hu family moths first.

......

In the afternoon, Hu Fu.

A group of people were sitting in the hall, drinking tea and whispering to each other.

Here, all the stewards and shopkeepers in the Hu Mansion are seated.

They are waiting for the summons of the current owner of the Hu Mansion, Hu Chang'an.

This morning, the young master hurriedly sent someone to take the account books of all the shops away, and ordered everyone to come to the house in the afternoon to discuss things, and at first glance it was the rhythm of checking the accounts.

A person like Shopkeeper Chen, who has no ghosts in his heart, is naturally not panicking, just drinking fragrant tea while chatting casually with others, which is regarded as an ordinary party.

And those who do bad things are naturally a little flustered in their hearts, and they can only hide their emotions by drinking tea.

But these old fritters are not particularly panicked.

They didn't have particularly frequent contact with Hu Changan, and they didn't particularly care about the changes since Hu Chang'an's rebirth.

In their opinion, Hu Changan is still the young master who only eats, drinks and has fun all day long, and his recent appreciation from His Majesty is just that he just happened to pick up a few auspicious rui, which is not surprising.

An inexperienced young master, to break the fog they left in the ledger, is still a little tender.

At the moment when everyone was thinking differently, Hu Changan was wearing a pale cyan brocade robe and slowly appeared in everyone's field of vision.

Compared with before entering the palace, Hu Changan's cheeks were obviously tanned a lot, and his figure was much stronger, and the whole person was no longer like a young master who fell down as soon as the wind blew, but like a straight green pine, revealing a faint majesty.

Seeing this, everyone hurriedly bowed down and saluted.

Hu Changan didn't talk nonsense, just took out a few account books from his arms, threw them on the ground with a snap, and said solemnly: "Shopkeeper Liu of the restaurant, shopkeeper Bai of the farm, come out and tell me, what's going on with the industry under your name?" ”

When Shopkeeper Liu and Shopkeeper Bai heard this, their hearts suddenly chuckled, and they exchanged a look of surprise with each other.

Wouldn't it, young master, you can see this?

There are dozens of ledgers of all the shopkeepers combined!

Even if it is an experienced old shopkeeper, it will take three or five days to read so many account books, why does the young master read them in less than half a day?

Not only did I read it, but I also accurately found out the real culprit from so many ledgers?

No, no, no, it shouldn't be that scary.

Nine times out of ten, the young master didn't look at the accounts, but asked, and asking for the account book was just bluffing.

As long as he doesn't admit it, the young master can't come up with any evidence.

Shopkeeper Liu hurriedly knelt on his knees, cried with a handful of snot and tears: "Young master, you can not believe others, how can you not believe me!" I came to marry with my mother, Liu, and I have been in Hu Mansion for more than ten years, and I have worked hard without merit......"

"Don't talk about the useless ones, explain what the hell is going on with your ledger." Hu Changan hid a few steps in disgust.

If she is a big beauty, she cries a few times with such pear blossoms and rain, maybe Hu Changan will also be soft-hearted.

But Shopkeeper Liu, such a greasy middle-aged man with five big and three thick coats, Hu Changan was simply cold, and hurriedly took a few steps back away from the battle circle.
