Chapter 1144: A Business Story
The sudden change not only made Qin Yan worried, but even Master Xia was a little anxious.
Seeing Hu Shengzhengse, who had guaranteed that nothing was wrong, said: "What am I bluffing her for?" Before the second moment, the young master went to the study and didn't see her, and when he asked the others, he said that he didn't know, so he came out angrily to find me and asked me. I said it was her master's birthday, Qin Yan wanted to go back to pay her birthday, she wanted to take leave last night but was negligent, she couldn't wait this morning, so she asked me to help me back.
When the young master heard this, he became angry, and said that if it was really her master's birthday, if she lied and went out for something else, I would not follow her. Then immediately called someone to your master to inquire, anyway, even I will be scolded this time, Qin Yan, you don't need to say, and Master Xia is accompanied in and out, I'm afraid that even Master Xia will be unable to escape justice this time. ”
Qin Yan's heart suddenly thumped up and down, and her eyes were red again, she was not afraid of being scolded or beaten, it was a big deal to be kicked out to resume her old business, she was afraid of visiting the truth, a big girl went to see a big man in private, she was really ashamed to death.
"Less to scare people." Master Xia seemed to believe it or not, frowned and said, "Anyway, it's none of my business, it was you who took the burden and asked her to go out, so naturally I want to ask you first." ”
Hu Sheng sneered: "Ask me? I'll just say it directly, so that the young master will know what you have done. ”
Qin Yan's frightened tears came out, and she begged Hu Sheng to help her with her with good words. Although the time to enter the mansion is short, how can she not like the leisure and cleanliness of the Xu Mansion? If you want to let her out and let her go around among all kinds of men, it is better to kill her with a knife.
Master Xia looked at Hu Sheng's expression and realized that this matter seemed to be true, so he hurriedly laughed again and again, and fanned Hu Sheng with his own fan. He made another gesture and exclaimed, "Good brother! If you cover up for me, how can my brother not take it to heart? It's always going to take your strength. ”
"Hmm." Hu Sheng saw that they were really at a loss, and smiled proudly, originally set up a trap this time to show the sisters in the inner house. Now that the goal has been achieved, as for what Qin Yan will do, it is none of his business, because he saw Xu Yan's attitude at that time, he knew that Qin Yan's current status was no less than that of Sizhu, and there was a Master Xia here, so he took the idea of pleasing both ends.
Hu Sheng smiled: "Okay." Don't panic, it's true, it's not me boasting, I've already done it for you. I've told the little guy not to inquire, go out for a walk and come back. It is true to say that Changqing's birthday is true, and you will be back soon. As he spoke, he stretched out a hand and said with a smile: "Did you win the lottery?" and some of them were given thanks to him. ”
Qin Yan immediately said: "I'll give him a few taels of silver." ”
One tael of money a month, a few taels of silver is a lot, Yi Hu Sheng smiled with satisfaction, and said to Master Xia: "It's good to write it on the book and go to Qiushui Hall, otherwise it will be a hidden danger after all." ”
Master Xia arched his hand and said, "Just ask Master Hu to cast some mana, I can't say it." ”
"Tell me to do it? That's too cheap for you. Hu Sheng said with a smile: "Those two good yarns yesterday." I'm not rare, you can take it back. The patterns and colors are not good, I don't want them. ”
"The yarn is top-notch. There's no better way to change it! Master Xia said distressedly: "How about a change of tricks?" ”
Hu Sheng said disdainfully: "I have enough yarn clothes to wear, and there are more than a dozen sets at home." It's just a favor of six or seven taels to give away, so you can use it yourself. I tell you that I have seen two things recently, but I can't buy them myself. ”
"What's that?" Master Xia hurriedly asked, "Just tell me, maybe I can do it for you." ”
Hu Sheng smiled: "It's nothing else. I saw that Sha Huizi's house had a flower basket made of gold wire, but it was only two or two. Handmade is expensive. I saw another Yixing purple clay pot he used to make tea, which came from a famous artist. There's a piece of jade on the lid, and there's nothing better than his one. At that time, I returned forty taels of the golden flower basket, and he agreed, and I returned twenty-four taels of the teapot, but he refused to live or die, and I will bother Master Xia to help me bring these two things tomorrow. ”
Master Xia was very painful after hearing this, it was really a lion's big mouth, and he bit off seventy or eighty taels of silver, but then he secretly thought that there would be more places to rely on Hu Sheng in the future, especially when he went out with Qin Yan and the like, it was almost impossible to do it without him, for the sake of long-term consideration? So he said happily: "Since you love these two things, I will buy them for you, and you don't need to give me the yarn, keep it and give it away." ”
"How good is that? Oh, I don't want to look like we're raw, so I have to laugh at it. Hu Sheng's face bloomed with joy, "Sha Huizi said that the teapot is a treasure, it has been more than a hundred years, and the spout has poured no tea at all." What's more peculiar is that when making tea, it is good to put tea leaves, or not to put tea leaves, anyway, brew a pot of boiling water, it is an excellent tea, and the color is always light green. I didn't believe it at the time, so I poured the tea from his pot and replaced it with hot water. ”
Strange fart! Master Xia scolded secretly in his heart, and turned around with a few words on his face.
There were only two people left in the room, Hu Sheng and Qin Yan, Hu Sheng asked about today's events, and Qin Yan said something roughly. Hu Sheng didn't believe it, and said strangely: "How can it cause illness for no reason?" He is not the only one who listens to your play, is it true that everyone will be sick for you when they see you? What do you have in mind, or is there another reason? ”
These words can be described as hitting the nail on the head, making a piano's face flushed, and he didn't dare to refute him, who let the bucket fall into someone's well? endured his anger and entered the inner house alone.
Xu Xuan in the study was anxiously waiting, and when he saw that the person had returned safely, he was not so concerned, and left after saying a few words, without asking anything. After all, Xu Xuan can be called a blank slate in terms of men and women, he is young and relatively simple-minded, so he naturally will not suspect that Qin Yan has done something that he shouldn't do, and maybe it has nothing to do with him.
More than half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and Qi Dashou has become a boss since he opened the shop. Although he has been selling fruits for more than ten years and is quite knowledgeable, most of the things are taken care of by his sister. And Chu Chu not only managed the money for the fifth aunt, but also managed the private house for Zhu He, and she herself likes to learn more and ask more questions, so she has released the means to take care of her business in an orderly manner.
Coupled with the major shareholder Xue Yu and the chief housekeeper Zhang Shou, the business naturally flourished, and the account was settled in less than half a month, and the goods of 1,300 taels of silver were sold. earned one hundred and eighty taels of silver, made a good start, and the family of three was very happy.
Xue Yu is young and strong, and every time he comes, Chu Chu shows him the account book. Almost unable to find any fault, Xue Yu was very satisfied.
As the saying goes, Xue Yu saw that Chu Chu was capable and young and peugeot, and under the attraction of opposites, it was inevitable that he would not secretly covet it, in fact, he saw a beautiful woman who was good in all aspects. It is impossible not to be tempted, it is nothing more than to stop at the intention - sexual immorality or actual action, which is of a completely different nature.
Chu Chu is not a chaste martyr, not to mention that she has a bad reputation if she is not married, so she has made a good intention to commit herself to others in order to make money. In fact, it was a woman who met a capable and good-looking young man. It's impossible to have no ideas.
So Chu Chu is also a little interesting, but in the way of his brother's eyes, the two of them have their own thoughts after knowing each other for a short time, and occasionally make a few jokes with each other and then walk away, which can be regarded as a courtesy.
Although Chu Chu likes *, this era is called lewdness-temperament, but he never lets people take advantage of him in vain, and he is born with love and care. Once upon a time when I was good with Zhu He. You have to pay homage to some gold and silver jewelry or clothing, or you won't even think about it......
After secretly observing these days, Chu Chu found that Xue Yu was different from the outside. Young and uninformed, not very proficient in business.
In this way, Chu Chu was inevitably a little disappointed, looking down on the other party, feeling that Xue Yu was just relying on Xu Ye and Zhang Shou, so she had a plan to swallow the other party's capital.
In recent days, more than 1,000 taels of goods have been shipped. She wrote a thousand taels, or seven or eight hundred taels of goods. opened a nine hundred taels, and the silver that came and went became her personal savings. Because the business is good, the money on the account book is in and out, and the business volume is rising, so no one sees the flaw.
On December 11, Xu Hao returned to Jinling three days earlier. At the end of the year, the stewards of the Xu Mansion and the Zhang Mansion came to place an order, and the two mansions together amounted to a transaction of about seven or eight thousand taels of silver.
Because doing business with a certain company for a long time will undoubtedly produce favoritism, in addition to ensuring the basic purchase amount of each trader, the Xu Mansion often changes another business without warning, at least making it difficult for outsiders to make a deal for the current year through a large amount of money to make a deal with a housekeeper or steward.
Of course, this method is not scientific, but the Xu family is not a government or an enterprise, so there is no need to consider everything, and it is impossible. For example, people are superficial, up and down their hands, etc., as long as they are not excessive, they do not want to completely eliminate it.
In short, this business was given to the newly opened embroidery village, according to this, other families were helpless. Besides, the two houses add a piece of silver of seven or eight thousand taels, and each family is about four thousand taels, and it is not eaten by one family alone.
Even so, Xiuzhuang couldn't advance enough silver to buy, so Chu Chu hurriedly called Qi Dashou to discuss with Zhang Shou. Zhang Shou also knew that the capital was not large, so he made a guarantee and opened a ticket of 3,000 taels of silver from the account office, and personally went to the Jiangnan silver number opened by Xufu, used the bill as a guarantee, and became a guarantor himself, and explained to the bank manager and took out the cash.
As soon as the silver arrived, Chu Chu tried his best, carefully selected a batch of silk, and urged the embroiderers to work overtime to make the finished product and send it to the two houses. Both governments were satisfied, and earned a thousand taels of silver in one fell swoop.
The excited Chu Chu thought that it was all his own strength, before and after running, everything was done by the brothers and sisters, but it was Xue Yu who sat back and enjoyed it, and he couldn't help but feel unbalanced, and he swallowed five hundred taels in one go, not wanting to be noticed by the experienced Zhang Shou.
Zhang Shou felt that something was wrong, there was no evidence, and he was busy with the New Year, and he didn't want everyone to make a fuss. At night, he asked his godson to take a leave of absence from the house, and used to take care of the annual accounts for a few days.
Xue Yu, who was so busy with Xu Ye that he was fainting, was thinking about Chu Chu, I was sorry, I took ten days off the next day, and went over to supervise every day.
The major shareholder came in person, who can say anything? Chu Chu handed over the account book to him, and secretly did not delay his work.
Sure enough, Xue Yu only managed it for two days, making his head dizzy, and he couldn't settle the daily incoming and outgoing accounts, a string of numbers didn't mean anything to him, how could he see that he had faked?
Chu Chu looked at his sad face and laughed, and Xue Yu also smiled: "Please help me calculate." ”
"Yo! How dare I? Chu Chu glanced at him and said stupidly: "You don't worry about us, let's go by yourself." ”
"Oops, you misunderstood, didn't you?" Xue Yu hurriedly got up and explained: "It's not that I'm too tired in the house, so I took leave and came out to be lazy, how can I not worry about you?" I'm afraid you'll be too tired when you come. Sister, you are good, I am really not good at managing accounts, I can't watch my brother die of exhaustion. ”
"Phew, my brother is outside, whose brother are you?" Chu Chu pursed his lips, but still walked over, "Okay, I'll help you do the math." ”
"Great, great." Xue Yu hurriedly gave up the throne.
I saw Chu Chu sitting on a chair with a golden knife, holding a pen in one hand and dialing the plate with the other, and clearing the door with a few crackles.
Xue Yu, who frequently admired, leaned on the side and looked at her, today Chu Chu wore a tight coat embroidered too red and white, the curves were very attractive, with his neck low, while looking at the account book, with one hand planning the plate, reflecting the light, the pretty face and tender blow bomb can be broken, with a strange and moving style.
