Chapter 126 There is no master in the eyes
For a few days, taking advantage of going to the city to sell fish, Huo Xi took Yang Fu to various pastry shops to sell his own sugar.
Although some were sold, the quantity was not large, and the price was severely suppressed.
The price of sugar in grocery stores in the city is 50 cents a catty, but bakery shops buy raw materials in bulk, but the price is much lower. Huo Xi refused to lower the price of sugar to 20% off, forty cents a catty.
I bought twenty shi at the beginning, and the price was calculated to be thirty-five or six yuan a catty, and it was sold for forty yuan.
I didn’t go to the big pastry shops anymore, but only went to some small single-family shops. Those shops didn’t have bulk purchase channels, so they sold dozens of catties at a price of about forty-five yuan per catty.
Yang Fu followed Huo Xi all the way, seeing her frowning and opening her mouth, he comforted her for a long time: "It's okay, Xi'er, let's sell slowly, don't worry."
Huo Xi nodded in disbelief, her brows did not stretch.
If only she had a shop in the city. The goods that come in at a low price from other places can be put in the shop and sold slowly, without her going door-to-door to sell them and being looked down upon by others.
But what does the shop sell? Selling linen and sugar? This is rather monotonous. Plus seafood?
Who enters the door.
What kind of store is this? It couldn't be more miscellaneous, and it also smells.
And the sackcloth and sugar are sold out? Where do you want to buy goods? What to buy? And who will sell the goods?
Huo Erhuai? Or Yang Shi, Yang Fu? Or herself?
Huo Xi shook his head.
She doesn't want to show her head too much. It will be tiresome to Nian'er. You have to hide your strength and bide your time for a few years.
But you can’t be a salted fish.
So sad.
Mu Yan is also worried about the Mu Mansion in the capital.
Kan Erli Yixun was not satisfied with the presents presented by him.
This gift-giving really took a lot of thought. In addition to the gift that people like, it must also reflect the wishes of the Mu Mansion, and it must also fit the current situation of the Mu Mansion in the capital.
He never worried about such a thing.
So annoying.
In the garden, Nanny Liu is comforting Mrs. Cheng.
"Ma'am, there is no need to have the same knowledge as the screwdriver who suffered from the plague. They just saw that the wife has no one to rely on, and her mother's family is not in the capital. All cats and dogs use chicken feathers as arrows."
Nanny Liu snorted, very angry.
Eating food from the mansion, holding food from the mansion, living a happy life in the capital, being respected by a bunch of servants in the mansion, being held up by others outside, but there is no wife in his eyes. One heart is still facing the Southwest Marquis Mansion.
This kind of slave who betrayed the master should be killed!
Madam is soft-hearted.
Cheng pressed the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief: "What kind of master am I? I'm trapped in this mansion, and even the servants don't pay attention to me."
Nanny Liu was very distressed: "Ma'am, don't underestimate yourself like this. You are Mrs. Hou of the Xiping Hou Mansion, and you still have the young master. The young master is now giving Wen Yunwu, and when the young master grows up in the future, will you still enjoy it?" What a blessing."
Ms. Cheng sniffed her nose and forced a smile: "Yes, I still have Yan'er."
Nanny Liu responded with a few words.
Cheng said again: "Mother, you can go to some of my dowry shops and see if you can collect some money."
"yes."
The master and the servant walked away together.
Mu Yan stepped out from behind a tree, looked at the master and servant who were walking away, and narrowed their eyes.
"Li Yi!"
"The subordinate is here."
"Go and look it up."
"yes."
After a while, Li Yi came back to report.
boom!
Mu Yan grabbed the paperweight on the desk and slammed it to the ground.
The paperweight suddenly fell apart.
"Is the Xiping Hou Mansion or the Chengmen Cheng family invited to the Queen's Closure Ceremony!" The voice was so cold that there was no warmth.
Li Yi lowered his head and pursed his lips tightly.
After he found out the reason, he was also filled with anger. If you want to send a gift to the palace, the mansion will not give you any money or buy it, so Madam Hou has to pay for the dowry herself?
If the superiors knew about this, they would think that the Xipinghou Mansion looked down on the Queen.
With the new emperor's love for the empress, the Xiping Hou Mansion might not be able to afford it. They are far away in the southwest, there is nothing to do, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, but for their young master, it may be difficult to travel in the capital.
The young master is a proton, his status is awkward, and the house often does things that hinder him. The young master didn't have many classmates who could talk in the Imperial College.
No one usually invites us to have fun together.
As soon as Li was thinking about it, he saw the young master striding towards the outside of the study, so he quickly gathered his mind to follow.
"Master."
As soon as he entered the courtyard, the head manager Mu Ren just greeted Mu Yan with a smile, but was kicked to the ground by Mu Yan.
"Master?"
Muren fell to the ground with a look of astonishment.
The young master usually stays in his own yard, ignoring everything, so what... What happened? The brain is spinning desperately.
Mu Yan looked arrogantly, looking at him coldly from top to bottom.
Seeing that he was going to get up, he was still not relieved, and kicked him to the ground again.
The servants and servants passing by all opened their mouths wide in astonishment. They were so frightened that they lowered their heads from a distance, and couldn't help but sneak a look.
Mu Yan didn't explain, but only ordered Kan Er in a cold voice: "Go and call the second manager."
"yes."
The second steward, Mu Shi, trotted over with his clothes on his hem. Before he could catch his breath, he just opened his mouth: "Master..."
was interrupted by Mu Yan.
"From now on, you will be promoted to be the chief steward. The first thing to do is to list carefully the properties in the capital and the surrounding areas, and ask all the shopkeepers and heads of the villages to come to the mansion with their account books to find me. Anyone who does not obey the order, where did they come from?" Where are you going back!"
Second manager Mu Shi opened his mouth in circles and his mind was buzzing.
"What, you can't do it?" The voice was cold.
Mu Shi looked up, and saw the young master looking at him with a serious face.
Shocked with fright, he plopped down on his knees: "Thank you, master, for your promotion, I will fulfill my mission."
"Well. Since Muren's heart is towards Yunnan, he sent him to go with his family. You can arrange the personnel affairs in the mansion. If you still don't have a master in your eyes, you can kill or sell him. Muren is so lucky."
"Yes, yes, the slave understands."
Jingshi Mu Mansion, the sky has changed.
The servants were as silent as cicadas, walking a little lighter. No one dares to be lazy anymore.
Originally, the chief steward said that their monthly money was allotted from the Southwest. In the eyes of many servants, only the Hou Mansion in Yunnan was in their hearts, and they did not seriously treat the Cheng family as their master.
But after Mu Yan's actions, everyone knew that the current government is not as good as the current management, and the Hou's Mansion in the southwest is far away.
Ms. Cheng received a pile of ledgers, and saw that the servants in the mansion were respectful to her, but she couldn't recover for a long time.
When she found out that her son was taking the lead for her, she cried hard again.
Thinking that her own son is now calling her aunt according to the ancestral system, his heart is cut like a knife.
Now that Master Hou has taken over the throne, her son, as the uncle's heir, doesn't know what to do in the future. When the other heirs of Lord Marquis take over the title, Yan'er will be just a side branch.
For many nights, Mrs. Cheng couldn't sleep because of worry.
Now seeing Yan'er stand up for her, Cheng's heart like a dry well has come to life, and it's time for her to stand up.
Another new week~ Morning
