Tang Fang picked his teeth and said to the section level: "Brother, you are a big local family, you do a bad job in the yamen, and you have recently opened a soup pool to make money, and there is no shortage of money." When your sister-in-law gets married, don't deduct her dowry, and I don't have a relaxed life here. ”

Yu Jiejie smiled all over his face: "Where did my brother say!" Since my brother died, my sister-in-law's things have not been touched at all, and they are all kept. Don't hide it from my brother, my sister-in-law's family is also a big family, silk and satin, gold and silver jewelry, a lot. ”

Tang Fang snorted: "That's what I brought with me when I married into your family, and your brother didn't leave anything?" You must be looking at her as a woman's family, swallowing all the property! Let me tell you, if my brother doesn't have sand in his eyes, why should your brother's family property be shared with me! Don't talk about those farms, there is always some floating wealth. If you want to eat alone, there is no such good thing! ”

"Drink, drink." Yu Jiejie didn't answer and drank a glass of wine with the soup party.

Putting down the wine glass, Yu Jiejie said to the young woman standing next to him: "Honghong, quickly fill the official with wine!" ”

Honghong responded crisply and filled the soup with wine. Tang Fang put down the toothpick, touched the red hand, and squinted at Yu Jiejie.

Yu Jiejie smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother, my sister-in-law's family really doesn't have any floating wealth. Otherwise, I promise that from now on, I will not touch a penny at my sister-in-law's house. How about I fold fifty yuan in cash for that house? ”

Tang Fang just touched Honghong's hand, looked at Yu Jiejie, and didn't speak.

Yu Jiejie said: "Honghong was brought back from Xijing, but it is not comparable to the local village women. Seeing her brother close to her, she won't go back tonight, and will stay here with her brother. Also, in the future, my brother will go wherever he wants, and he won't have to spend money! ”

After hearing this, Tang Fang picked up the wine glass on the table and said, "You are so greedy for money, there will be retribution in the future!" Forget it, let's do it, choose a good day in a few days, and pick up your sister-in-law to pass the door. In the future, our own family, why should we be so clear! ”

Yu Jiejie was full of joy and touched a glass of wine with the soup party. His brother died last year, leaving his sister-in-law alone and childless. A few days ago, I met Tang Fang, and after repeated contacts, I finally made Tang Fang agree to marry his sister-in-law.

Tang Fang was the commander of the Xiang Army, and after arriving here, he couldn't learn anything, and he couldn't do the serious work of the iron supervisor, so he came to manage the canteen. I thought it was a pickling errand, but after a few months of cooking, I found that the goods were purchased in the canteen, and it was very oily. Oil, salt, sauce and vinegar are big business as they are. At the beginning, the iron supervisor's accounts were strictly checked, and Tang Fang had nowhere to start. It took a few months for Tang Fang to straighten out the relationship, and all the joints were opened, and he was able to get up and down.

This kind of character is the local god of wealth. Yu was sent to Luoyang to do things a few months before the festival, and only recently returned, missing the best opportunity to make a fortune from the iron prison, and regretted it so much. It took all the scheming to catch the line of the soup recipe. Now he runs a bathhouse, and the coal used to boil water is smuggled out of the iron prison. Recently, I want to open a restaurant, and the county's relationship with the section level has its own way, and what I want is to take advantage of the opportunity of the Tangfang Guantiejian canteen, and in the future, the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar of the restaurant, and even meat and vegetables, I don't have to buy it myself.

Tang Fangzheng wanted to collude with people outside to make some money, so he naturally hit it off. The biggest conflict between the two is the dowry when Yujie's sister-in-law marries. After his brother died, Yu Jiejie used various means to take his family's assets into his own hands. Marrying a widow, the most valuable thing is the dowry, who is the soup recipe, how can he be willing to suffer this kind of loss, and he has been dragging it out.

It's not that Yu Jiejie refuses to spit out the money, it's really very troublesome for this kind of thing, and once it starts, I'm afraid I won't be able to take it. The two brothers' family property was not very clear before, how much is appropriate to vomit? After dragging on back and forth for a long time, Tang Fang saw that Yu had some business acumen at the section level, so he reluctantly agreed.

After negotiating the most tricky thing, Yu was full of joy at the festival level, and he pushed the cup with the soup recipe to change the glass, and drank it happily.

After drinking for a while, Yu Jie said: "Brother, when your sister-in-law enters my house, we will be brothers, just like brothers." There is a sentence I want to explain to you, your soup pool has been too unscrupulous recently. This kind of thing can't be so big! ”

Yu Jiejie sighed: "What can I do?" A few months ago, the magistrate sent me to Henan Mansion to do business, but I didn't return for a few months, and I missed the first days of the iron prison. When he came back, the money-making business was taken by others. Isn't there no way to open a soup pool—"

Tang Fang said: "It's nothing to open the soup pool, but if you let the little lady blatantly sleep with the guests, the court is not allowed to know!" Have you ever heard of a name, called a secret prostitute? Prostitutes are dark, and there is no light! Do you think that your head is iron, and the yamen can't clean you up! ”

Speaking of this, Tang Fang held the red hand, felt the warmth of the girl, and squinted at Yu Jiejie.

Yu Jiejie said with a smile: "What my brother said, now outside the town, a large number of houses are all engaged in this business. No one in the vicinity knows, no one knows, and no one from the yamen is seen to get it. Why didn't the court allow it when it came to me? Besides, I'm on an errand in the Yamen, so can I hide it if something really happens? What can happen if you avoid it early? ”

Tang Fang sighed: "I told you, secret prostitutes, secret prostitutes, those people, which one is not dark!" Each family is a family, and when someone goes in, they are only regarded as guests, and they can manage what the yamen does at home. The woman who does business is either the daughter of the head of the household, or the wife of the head of the household, and the business of her own family! You're hiring someone to do it here! Understand, you are the one who hires! ”

This kind of thing is roughly the same in ancient and modern times, but there are slight differences in name and form. At this time, prostitutes, whether they were official prostitutes, private prostitutes, or camp prostitutes, were nominally engaged in the service industry, and did not engage in the skin and meat business. In a sense, that is the entertainment industry of later generations, and people are legitimate business. Those who do the skin and meat business are not prostitutes, but prostitutes, all of whom are small families and family businesses, so they are called secret prostitutes. If it is not a family, it must be a family in name, otherwise it will be banned if you break the law. Yu Jiejie hired people in such a blatant name, but the above didn't know, otherwise he would have been taken a long time ago.

Yu Jiejie came back late, and he was very bold according to the previous set of Ye County. But he doesn't want to be the main iron supervisor now, he doesn't know the officials of the iron prison, and sooner or later he will be cleaned up.

Seeing that Tang Fang was serious, Yu Jiejie hurriedly asked: "Brother, without this business, I can't make money, what should I do?" ”

Tang Fang said: "I'll teach you a good one, and in the future, these people won't take money from you." They do business, and you don't take money. How much money you can ask them to give each month to let them serve customers in your store. As for what to do with your guests, what do you do? ”

Yu Jiejie listened, thought about it and thought, if this is the case, he will make much less money, and he can't help but hesitate.

Tang Fang said impatiently: "You are so stupid, how can you earn so much family business!" You can ask them to pay a month, you can rent a house for them, and you can sell them food. The price is higher, not all money! She has her own way of getting customers to buy it! ”

Hearing this, Yu Jiejie suddenly realized that he threw his hand to Tang Fang: "Brother is the one who has seen the world and came up with these methods!" Brother, I understand, is it to count the money on other things, this matter is easy! ”
