Chapter 769 771. So arrogant

Liang He couldn't stand the fact that Jin Qianqian, who was the same age as her, was better than her in everything.

With just one year's income from maritime trade, they are richer than all of them, not to mention businesses like Tianfu Restaurant and soap.

"Master, will Gu Wenheng's popularity have any impact on you?"

Liang Shi said, "I am planning to retire, what impact can this have?"

"Master, Yi Province has undergone tremendous changes this year. Can't we go a step further?" In Liang He's view, Liang Shi was already a second-rank official. If he could make a step further, she could also be conferred the title of a first-rank lady.

If this place had not been neglected, it would have been a first-rank rank according to his governorship.

As long as they have this identity, they and their son can live in peace in a good family and no one dares to mess with them.

"That's easy to say," Liang Shi has been in officialdom for many years, so how could he not want to go further?

But he is old now and far away from the officialdom in Shangshangjing. No one is willing to add more benefits to an old man like him. Even if he can barely advance to the next level, it will be a bit useless to others.

"Don't you have good friends in the capital? Just give it a try and you'll know. What if?"

Ryoshi said, "...These things are not your business. Just take care of the backyard."

Liang Heshi felt a little tired of hearing this, but she really didn't dare to refute, "Master, what about the shop in East City...?"

The rents of shops there are rising day by day. Liangshi, who had taken over those shops before, was making losses, so he asked to take back the shops.

No matter how much nice words she said these days, she could only barely keep it going for a few more months.

"Deal with your goods as soon as possible, and I'll have someone rent out the shop when the time comes." Liang really felt that this young lady had no business acumen or skills. Instead of letting her continue to suffer losses, it would be better to rent it out. At least there would be rent.

"But how can business be done in a cluster? We have finally made an impression on those shops, and now business is picking up. It would be a big loss to just sell them off."

“Go ask around and see if there’s any shop like yours that’s losing money every month?

Those who go to take care of the business, have you ever seen them go a second time?

My reputation as the governor is not as valuable as your little money?"

Many people who come to buy from them do so out of respect for Liangshi. Unfortunately, not only are the prices in those shops several times higher than other stores, the quality and styles are also inferior.

Although those people didn't complain to me and had to suffer the loss in silence, the fact that they didn't go a second time speaks volumes.

"We are still in the exploratory stage. If I close the shop now, where will I save face?" In order to prove himself, Liang He held the opening ceremony with great fanfare. All the officials and aristocratic families in Yongchang County came.

If she stops in such a hurry now, how will she be able to go out and attend banquets in the future?

Liang Shi said, "You have earned this reputation yourself. Look at Madam Gu. She is very organized in everything she does. All the employees under her are well-trained before being put in the shop. What about you? You only use your trusted aides.

It’s not that I look down on them, but look at how they do things?

That day, I followed others out of Tianle Restaurant, and thought about where your shop was, so I turned around and went in. Who knew that those blind people would sit there like masters, not even greeting the customers who came. You still want to do business like this?

If you really want to run your shop better, you can go and take a look at Madam Gu's shops. That's how they really do business. There are people greeting customers at the door before they even enter, and they treat them attentively and introduce their products along the way. With that kind of service, even if you just want to go in and take a look, you will have to take something away when you leave.

If you stock up your shop like this and then don't bother with anything else, letting your subordinates bully you, then even if you have a lot of wealth, it won't be enough to make up for it.

If you stop here, you can take the rent of those shops for the past few years, at least you can get back the money you invested before."

If this wasn't his own wife, Liangshi wouldn't want to say so much.

"Since the master has given me the shop to collect rent, why not let me continue to give it a try?

You said that the people below are not good enough, so I will replace some people, and if that still doesn't work, I will buy some new people from outside." When Liang He heard that she was compared with Jin Qianqian, she felt very upset.

But facing Liang Shi, she really didn't dare to show her displeasure, and she said carefully, "Let me try for another year. If it doesn't work, I won't ask for the rent at that time, and I will just return the shop to you."

Liang Shi, "...You really won't give up until you reach the Yellow River. Well, you only have so much dowry money anyway, so don't come to me to cry when you lose it all."

Liangshi gave up completely. With such a personality, he was far inferior to Gu Wenheng's wife.

"Your niece has lived in our house for such a long time, you should leave her marriage to her parents!"

Liangshi had no objection to treating the girl from the He family. After all, in such a large mansion, one more girl wouldn't make a lot of difference.

However, after such a long time of selection, and even after investigating almost all the suitable young men in Yongchang County, the aunt and nephew still failed to pick out a suitable one.

He was a little confused. What were these aunt and nephew thinking about?

Given the status of his He family, even with the blessing of his relative the governor, there are only a few families that can be a match for him.

"Alas, I am also worried. My brother gave Xiaoyu to me, hoping to find a suitable family for him, but it is too difficult to match the two parties. Master, do you see any suitable candidates?"

Before, she wanted to bring her niece together with Wu Kun.

Who would have thought that Wu Kun was a useless guy? More than a year has passed, and the Tianle Restaurant is still on the verge of collapse.

When she first brought people over, the other party was pretending to be deaf and dumb.

As a result, when I was interested in other people, they came up again.

She didn't think anything of Wu Kun's wavering attitude, but was rejected outright by her own niece.

Later we visited many other places, but there were always reasons of one kind or another, which delayed the flowering period for another year.

"You look down on everything I said," Liang Shi had mentioned a few people, but they were all disliked by Liang He, so he was too lazy to mention them again.

When it comes to this, he actually has an idea, "I did think of it. Gu Wenheng still has several unmarried nephews. If you think it's appropriate, I will go and talk to you about it when the time comes."

"Those ones?" Liang He's tone was a little disdainful. "Those are Gu Wenheng's nephews, not his biological sons. It's a pity that his two sons are still young, otherwise he could really consider it."

Liang Shi held his chest and said, "You are getting more and more arrogant. Those guys in the Gu family are Gu Wenheng's nephews, and He Xiaoyu is just your niece."

If we really talk about closeness, he is even better.
