Volume B Section 115 Decision
Feng Ziying likes this kind of small talk full of family life, which does not have any pressure from anyone, but also satisfies her gossip heart.
He has always been mysterious, yearning and wanting to explore the life in Jiafu.
After all, the book "Dream of Red Mansions" in the previous life shocked the world too much, and it is said that people with a little bit of elegance and background are all proud to ponder "Dream of Red Mansions".
This red school has fed an unknown number of brick families, and even derived countless genres.
Mainland, Taiwanese, overseas, colorful, all kinds of whimsical and brain-opening, breathtaking.
Of course, he was not so bored that he didn't even care about business, so he went to figure out what rouge brand the ladies of Jiafu used and which Qinglou theater the uncles liked to go to stay overnight.
Kelin girl stayed in Jiafu, he had to pay attention and care about it in terms of reason, public and private, which was also a wish from the heart.
Ruixiang seems to have faithfully carried out his goal, and it went smoothly and the task was successfully completed.
"Second Master Lian is very dedicated, master, the little one has really never seen such a dedicated and attentive master, the timber yards in our two Zhuangzi, he has personally gone to see it, well, he commanded people to measure it personally and check the quality of the wood,......"
Ruixiang's report was obviously more "accurate" and "professional" than his "report" to Yunshang.
"About the end of November, the construction of the mausoleum has basically stopped, and the account in October is probably beginning to settle, this is what I inquired from Long'er, I heard that on the 19th day of October, the second master of Lian settled the account of 5,000 taels of silver, and he was so happy that he sang a little song, I heard that there was a burst of drunkenness in the house, hehe, give the two handsome ones to ......."
Seeing Ruixiang's frowning expression, Feng Ziying knew what the other party wanted to say, and waved her hand, "Don't do this kind of pickled matter in front of me, get down to business." ”
"Yes. November 20, Lian Erye is said to have a big one, about 30,000 taels of silver, I heard Zhao'er say, Lian Erye went back and quarreled with the second grandmother, but then reconciled, it is said that the Ministry of Industry took 3,000 taels of silver, originally said to pay 40,000 taels, but only gave 30,000 taels, the second master wanted to attack but was worried that there would be a few more silver coins to be stuck, so he could only hold his breath and go home,......"
This is all in Feng Ziying's expectations.
The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household have to be dealt with, and Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng will not be unexpected.
It was probably the lion's big mouth, which made Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng a little unacceptable for a while, but in the end they had to give in, so they got angry, so they had to fight with each other.
However, it seems that Jia Lian attaches great importance to this external work, so he is so attentive, probably because after this cooperation, he can think of him when he can make a living in other ways, so Jia Lian is really suitable for a position such as a contract foreman or project manager.
"I haven't seen the girl of the Xue family either, but the maid of the girl of the Xue family has seen it, master, it's the first time I've seen such a handsome girl, well, Sister Yunshang doesn't count,......"
It seemed that he felt that his words might cause trouble, Ruixiang hurriedly added, and then said: "That girl heard that her name is Xiangling, I heard Brother Xing'er say that it was originally bought by Uncle Xue to be a concubine, but the grandmother of the Xue family felt that the eight characters did not match, so she did not allow it, and refused to let this Xiangling girl follow Uncle Xue, let her follow the Xue girl,......"
"That girl is really handsome, kind and kind-hearted, and soft-spoken, and very kind to our subordinates, especially a cinnabar mole in that eyebrow, which is only available to Guanyin Bodhisattva, tsk,......"
Ruixiang is not unseen in the world, and it is estimated that this Xiangling is really a little beautiful. ’
However, history seems to be a little biased, Feng Ziying remembers that Xiangling was not accepted by Xue Pan soon after she arrived in Beijing?
Or is it that the timeline has not yet arrived, or is there really a deviation that has disappointed Xue Pan's dream?
"......, Miss Lin doesn't go to the Xue family very much, I haven't seen the Xue family girl, and I don't think I will go to Miss Lin, well, there seem to be two more girls around the Xue family girl, one is that Xiangling, who is quite familiar with the Zijuan girl, and the other is called Ying'er girl, who is a little smaller than Xiangling girl, and her eyes look like she is smiling, but she has only taken a look at her face, and she has not spoken,......"
Ruixiang now obviously felt that his young master seemed to be very interested in the girl of the Xue family, which made him unable to make up his mind again.
Isn't it Miss Lin? Why did you change the Xue family girl again?
Where is this treasure betting?
It turned out that seeing that the young master was so interested in Miss Lin, and hearing that Miss Lin's father was the imperial history of the dynasty, he felt that he was sure that Miss Lin and the young master would come together, but he also felt that Miss Lin was too thin, and his wife and aunt were afraid that they would not be able to agree.
This Feng family is the only seedling of the young master, and the issue of heirs has always been the biggest thing in the Feng family.
Mrs. and Mrs. Aunt have said this many times in front of people, of course, it is estimated that it is also said to those maids in the house, including Yunsheng, that they are not allowed to beat the young master's idea.
With a wave of his hand, Feng Ziying signaled that the topic of the Xue family's girls didn't have to go any further, he was just a little curious about Xue Baochai and Xiangling, the two women who wrote a lot of "A Dream of Red Mansions", and if they wanted to talk about their interests and concerns, they couldn't put them there for the time being.
The girl has been getting along for a long time, and the attachment that was born is mixed with a little pity, well, it's more complicated, as for the other women in Jiafu, he really doesn't have any interest, at least not now, before he is sixteen years old, before he reads, he can't have any ideas and interests.
After the affairs in the mansion were clearly explained, Feng Ziying began to read the letters accumulated in the past few months.
The letters of these years are really difficult to deliver, like my father's letter can still be sent back through the post station, but I think Shandong is basically delivered by people.
I heard that there is already a prototype of modern mail and logistics in the south of the Yangtze River, but the scope is not large, and the scale is also very small, which is generally more popular in Nanzhili and Liangzhejiang, but it is rare in the areas where the commercial and trade industry in the north is not so developed.
Like Jingshi, it is more dependent on entrusting someone to send it, but where can ordinary people afford it?
In fact, the post station system of the Great Zhou Dynasty can be completely reformed, which can not only improve the efficiency of the transmission of the imperial court post station, but also consider commercial operation, but this point cannot be rashly proposed, and a more thorough plan is needed.
At the very least, it can prevent a post station employee from being laid off and causing some unpredictable things to happen, right? One less of these sparks counts as one.
The situation in Yulin Town is very bad, the vacancy of soldiers has reached 30% or even 40%, this is a border army, not an ordinary guard town, such a high shortage means that once a big war is encountered, a crisis will appear.
There are many reasons for the vacancy, including the fact that the soldiers' salaries and rations cannot keep up with the desertion of the soldiers, and there are also some generals below who eat the vacant quotas, and there are simply those who are in name, but in fact, they have already done their own things, and all in all, the clean-up is not enough, there is a long way to go, and it is even impossible to complete.
Daddy still has political wisdom and means.
If you are too out of line, choose one or two to kill chickens and monkeys, it really doesn't work, just send them out to patrol the border, and then the group will be wiped out, and many people will naturally converge a lot.
The fat sheep should still be looking for how to connect with those black hands in his own army, that is, it is the best, killing two birds with one stone, but this requires careful planning, and it can only be implemented after Dad completely controls the situation in Yulin Town, and now it has to be tormented.
All in all, everything went pretty well.
Of course, it is definitely impossible to write so bluntly in the letter, before Dad went to Yulin, the two had already agreed on some obscure terms, which were not considered passwords, but by mention, at least Feng Ziying could understand the meaning.
The situation in Shandong is going well, and the Fengrunxiang store in Dongchang Mansion has also opened, due to the foreshadowing of Linqing and the endorsement of the prefect, the situation in Dongchang Mansion should be better than imagined, which also makes the Xue family full of confidence in opening up the situation in Jinan Mansion and even the entire territory of Shandong next year.
However, this is not what Feng Ziying is most concerned about, what he is most concerned about is Duan Xigui's learning and cultivation of those teenagers.
According to Duan Xigui, these children have learned very well, and there are so many of them who have good understanding and talent, and they also cherish this opportunity given to them very much, so they study very seriously and hard, and they have entered the country very much, even Duan Xigui was surprised that these children could accept this kind of knowledge that is not useful at all at the moment so quickly.
Feng Ziying also smiled dumbly when she saw this, it is precisely this kind of blank paper that makes it easier for children to learn, if it is for adults who already have original memories, it is the most difficult to adapt and re-learn.
Of course, there is also a trouble for these children, that is, after learning these things, it is like dragon slaying, useless, and let them learn to be familiar with the existing various counting and accounting methods, and then after comparing the two, they will gradually learn to be familiar with each other, and then enter the business system that they have slowly constructed.
This seems to be far away, but Feng Ziying has already determined the goal, what steelmaking and chemical industry he doesn't have that ability now, but commercial opening and colonization only need to know one way, and then when he has enough power and capital in his hands, he can start it.
The land and gold sands of the East, the spices and land of the South Seas, the population and markets of Japan and even Korea will all be included in the future planning.
This may be an important means for Dazhou to solve the financial hole, and it can also become a major achievement in his future career.
