After unifying their minds and determining the strategic direction of the Qiong Navy, everyone dispersed with their respective tasks, and Dong Mingjue also thought all the way back to the backyard of Nanyuan.

In fact, the things that Xia Nan explained sounded very demanding, but in fact, it was not too difficult for professionals. How to prevent his subordinates from doing things is not difficult for Dong Mingjue, who grew up in Qianzhuang since he was a child; As for how to balance the budget and expenditure, ensure that the flow of funds to the most needed places, it is very high, in fact, it is just a trade-off between the allocation of funds (silver two), compressing non-urgent or dispensable expenditures, and ensuring military use, Dong Mingjue is no stranger to this, after being the female shopkeeper alone, whether it is the money bank or the expenses in the house, she takes care of it alone, and has accumulated a lot of experience. In her current situation, she is the best candidate for this position.

However, Dong Mingjue is a very strong woman, and the messenger assigned to her, she either doesn't do it, or she has to do her best. She thought about it and thought it would be better to ask the master and give some specific guidance. After all, he has a dual identity, being both a steward and a concubine, and he has the advantage of being close to the water compared to others.

She has always been vigorous and resolute, she did it when she thought of it, and went straight to the study. In the past few months since she came to Nanyuan, she has figured out the old man's habits: no matter which aunt's room she goes to spend the night in, before dinner, he will definitely stay in the study, sometimes to discuss with Master Lin and others, and sometimes to think about things by herself, often staying for an hour or two.

There happened to be no one visiting today, only Xia Nan alone. Seeing her appearance, Xia Nan was a little surprised, "Which gust of wind blew you here?" If you have nothing to do, you can't go to the Three Treasures Hall, right? ”

Dong Mingjue was angry for a while, this breath was tight, he was obviously his concubine, but he seemed to be a distant relative who had not come to the door for a long time. But now is not the time to dwell on this, she said respectfully: "In order to do a good job, the concubine has something to ask the master." ”

"Hehe, the lord appreciates your seriousness, what's the matter, just ask."

"It's not difficult to say what the master explains, and it's not easy to say it, but I don't know how to handle some things. Now that there is going to be a war, the money must be pooled to do great things, I understand this. But what if you have to spend money elsewhere? ”

"Well, for example?"

Dong Mingjue has a good memory, such as a few treasures, and he said: "For example, General Wei sent someone a few days ago to say that many warships need regular maintenance, and the damaged places need to be repaired, and the cost of wood and craftsmen is expensive; Also, he wanted to recruit new sailors and build new old locks for training; In addition, Mr. Wang of Baicao Garden made a list, saying that the number of students recruited has increased, and it is necessary to add paper, pencils, tables and chairs, and expand the school and residence; Master Lin also wanted to allocate a sum of money, saying that it was to test firearms...... What they said was very reasonable, but the concubine didn't understand many things, and she didn't know whether to refuse or pay? ”

Xia Nan replied seriously: "This kind of thing will happen almost every day in the future, I won't tell you what to do one by one, because I can't do everything personally, worry about everything, just tell you a few principles: first, all daily expenses, no special circumstances, as usual allocation, such as the stationery purchase and expansion of Baicao Garden, where there are more and more students, it is normal for expenses to increase, no matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in education!" The same is true for the regular maintenance and repair of warships, which cannot be saved; Second, the new increase in expenses related to the army must be approved by me, and only after approval can the money be allocated, such as the construction of new training ships mentioned by William, the navy has not had too heavy combat missions recently, and this expenditure will be pressed first, and the funds will be tilted towards the army. Even if Master Lin is the same, he has a special status, but he must follow the rules, so as not to let others go up and down, if Master Lin is not happy, ask him to come to me. Third, for small expenses of less than 5,000 taels, you can make the decision and give it to me after summarizing it every month. ”

In fact, similar rules have been very perfect in later generations of companies, the larger the company, the more standardized the financial management, Dong Mingjue's role is equivalent to the financial director of a company, after setting the rules, it is not difficult to do.

"What the master said is very clear, and the concubine knows what to do."

Dong Mingjue nodded again and again when she heard this, the old man had a clear mind, was organized, and was willing to delegate power, which made her feel very comfortable and a sense of accomplishment. The amount of five thousand taels is not a small amount, even if it is an ordinary squire in Guangdong, he will never see so much silver in his life.

She bloomed a rare smile, and her originally solemn face flushed, which made Xia Nan's heart flutter. This Nizi actually looks not bad, her lips are red and her teeth are white, she is young, her face is full of collagen, and her figure is also quite good, as long as she doesn't have a businesslike face, she is still very attractive.

Some thoughts came to his heart, so he reached out to pull Dong Mingjue's arm. Dong Mingjue didn't expect the style of painting to change suddenly, he couldn't react, he was pulled down and lay on his side in the arms of the master, he didn't know what to do for a while, his face was flushed, his body was stiff, and he didn't know how to move.

Xia Nan sighed: "It's not the first time, and I don't understand the boudoir so much." Wait for the master to train you, let you know that in addition to work, there are more interesting things, and life will not be so boring......" said and kissed him.

Dong Mingjue trembled all over his body as if he had been shocked, a tingling sensation flowed from his lips all over his body, his hands and feet were stiff, and he didn't know where to put it.

"Interesting, interesting!" In the summer, Nan's eyes lit up, and compared to the amorous style, such a chick has a different taste, and each has its own wonderful. Unexpectedly, Dong Mingjue is no longer a virgin, but he still retains this immaturity.

He picked up the confused Dong Mingjue, walked out of the study, and strode towards Dong Mingjue's room. The maids along the way saw it, and they all knew what the master was going to do, so they quickly avoided it to the side, for fear of disturbing the master's Yaxing. The clever tiptoe behind him and closed the door for the master.

Soon after, a suppressed cry came from the bedroom, as if it was painful, but also as if it was very satisfied.

The screams slowly turned into moans, shallow chanting and low singing, which made people red-faced when they heard it.

Xie Wenjun, who was surrounded by a group of maids with a big belly, passed by, frowned and asked, "Isn't that Mingxue's room?" What's going on? ”

An informed maid went over and quietly told Xie Wenjun what had happened.

"I see." Xie Wenjun smiled. Dong Mingjue, as her "descendant", can be favored by the master, which is a good thing for both of them. She instructed left and right, "Be smart, go around the house up and down, who dares to disturb the master's interest, and the family law will serve!" ”
