Chapter 408: master of the house

"How did you come?"

Huo Xi was a little surprised. The young master hasn't shown up for almost a month. I thought he was going to conquer Saibei.

"I thought you were going with the army."

After speaking, Mu Yan didn't speak, she just stared at Tayue behind her, and turned her head to look at Tayue.

Tayue glanced at her and stayed outside the door. Standing at the door, he breathed a sigh of relief. This young master of the Mu family has such a strong aura that people dare not look at him.

"Why haven't you returned to Jiangnan?"

Well…

"I'll be back when I make arrangements."

"When?"

Uh, what tone is this? Take control of the world and control it on your own head? Stepped on his tail?

Huo Xi frowned, but said nothing.

Mu Yan glanced at her and pursed her lips.

The tone softened, "I will go to Mobei with the emperor in a few days. People from the capital will go north with the emperor. I am afraid that the city of Beiping will not be peaceful. I will arrange things in these two days and come back earlier."

"But I still have a lot of things to do."

"Is raising those people for nothing?" Mu Yan was retorted by her, and her tone was a little heavy.

Huo Xi pursed her lips.

Seeing her stubborn appearance, Mu Yan's forehead was throbbing with veins, and he pressed his hand on his forehead.

Thinking that he still took 20% of her shares, he sighed.

Looking at her: "I will leave a few people for you. They will help you look after the construction of your abandoned street and Zhuangzi. Including the construction of Tianjin Wharf, they will help you recruit people to speed up the process."

Huo Xi looked up at him, this guy knows a lot. Dig up your own home?

"That's it. I'll let them go to Zhuji. You need to leave before the army leaves the city on the day after tomorrow at the latest."

After Mu Yan finished speaking calmly, he raised his long legs and walked out.

Huo Xi stared blankly at his receding back, feeling dazed for a while. What is this guy doing here? Come to make up her mind? Come to her house to be the master of the house?

Grinded his teeth. He didn't dare not to listen, in case the golden thigh was offended, things would happen. Ask someone to call Qiu Dazhuang, and ask him to notify Zhu Ji to come over.

After a while, Zhu Ji ran over panting.

Huo Xi huddled in the room with him to discuss various matters of Beiping City.

Hearing that the young master of the Mu family would send someone over to help, Zhu Ji let out a long sigh of relief. These days I was so busy that I didn't even have time to drink water, my feet hit the back of my head.

Businessmen like Guangfengshui have a low status. It is not easy to do anything in Beiping City, and it is not easy to benefit from it. If people from the Xipinghou Mansion help, it will be twice the result with half the effort.

"Okay, then the subordinates should cooperate with them more."

Huo Xi gave him a disgusted look, "As for the matter, we still need to make up our minds. If there are unresolved matters, or if you need to mediate with the officials, you will let the people of the Mu family do it. Their identities are after all It's more convenient than us."

"yes."

After Zhu Ji answered, he thought about the blueprint that Huo Xi changed later, and hesitated: "Boss, do we really want to build such a big perfume store? Is it too big?"

Huo Xi shook his head, "It's not very big, just build it according to my drawings."

At first, she only wanted to open one store, but later she thought that such a mass store would be popular, but the business strategy is to make small profits but sell more, and people with status and money might not go there more.

Emperor Yongkang led so many troops this time, and went to Mobei in person again, a big victory is certain.

With the great victory of the emperor, next year, the population of the emperor moving north will only increase.

The more people there are, the more fortifications will be built, and the more fortifications will be built, and the more people who can receive monthly money, the more people will want to spend. With more people, there is a desire to consume, and with a market, there will be more and more merchants.

Then her inn will be occupied, and the perfume shop will also be consumed by people.

There is not a single decent perfume store in the whole city of Beiping. Once her perfume store opens, it will be very popular.

It is inevitable to attract people to follow suit, so it must be built at the ceiling level from the beginning to promote the brand and reputation. No matter how well you follow the trend in the future, as long as you think of the old perfume shop, you will think of Guangfengshui.

Once the brand is established, it is not afraid that others will catch up later.

Besides the one hundred thousand taels of silver she brought, there is still nearly half of it. She made it hard and has money.

The boss is not short of money, so things will be easy to handle.

After discussing with Huo Xi, Zhu Ji ran away without stopping. Together with several stewards of the Mu Mansion, the two quickly built a street for accommodation, food and entertainment.

As for Ji Fengshi, there are people coming to join him almost every day, and he and Qiu Dazhuang are also too busy to touch the ground.

Chuyi and Youqing also followed their father, helping out a little. Huo Xi didn't hold them back.

In the evening of this day, two children came to look for her listlessly.

"What's the matter? Didn't you have a good time running outside with your father?" Look, it's like being beaten by frost now.

"Tired? If you're tired, rest at home." The two children are only seven or eight years old. No matter how short they are, Huo Xi never thought of enslaving two child laborers.

Youqing shook his head: "We are not tired, it is the first day of junior high school. The uncle and aunt who sold the first year of junior high school came. He is not happy."

"Huh? On the first day of junior high school, your uncle and aunt dare to join you?" Huo Xi was a little surprised, how thick-skinned this person is.

At the beginning, the grandma who relied on the first year of junior high school passed away, and lied to the first day of junior high school that she would send him to learn crafts. In fact, she sold him to her husband for a high price and sent him to the palace clean.

Now you still have the nerve to come and join their father and son?

On the first day of the first day of the lunar new year, he looked angry: "They are thick-skinned! I heard that people in the village were going to join my father, so they packed up their things, and the whole family came here. They cried and made noise in front of my father, and said that they were also deceived. Yes, they wanted to send me to learn crafts, they didn't want to sell me into the palace."

"Did your father believe it?"

If Ji Fengshi is soft-hearted this year, I can't entrust him with a lot of personnel arrangements.

The first day of junior high school shook his head: "My father didn't believe it. But my father told me that there are only uncles left in our family. They are brothers with broken bones and tendons. I can't bear to drive them away. And the cousins are still young. Seeing that they were too hungry to walk, my father cried."

Huo Xi sighed.

are all poor.

But selling it to a rich family as a servant, even if it is a death contract, is better than selling it to a cleanse and sending it to the palace. After cleansing himself, he never thought that his brother's family would go bankrupt? This nature is a bit bad.

Huo Xi recruited Ji Fengshi and asked him about it.

"I hate them. Although it's hard at home, it's not that I didn't send money to my family. Almost all the wages I got in Peiping were sent home. How much can I eat when I'm so young in the first grade of junior high school? Where can I sell them? Sell it to that kind of place. When I die in the future, I won’t even see the body.”

Ji Fengshi looked pained.

"Then you drove people away?"

Ji Fengshi looked conflicted: "The two younger brothers and sisters in the first year of junior high school are really pitiful. I am worried that those two will sell them. My mother likes these three grandchildren very much. They are the blood of my Ji family."

Gritting his teeth after speaking, he squatted down in front of Huo Xi, hugging his head, with a painful expression on his face.

He didn't want to forgive them. If he escaped on the first day of junior high school, if he hadn't met the master and son, there would be no chance for the father and son to meet now.

He didn't want to talk to them, but the two nephews and nieces were really pitiful.
