Master Chen Wu didn't expect Xianjin to make this request. He knew that this girl didn't like money, but he didn't know what this girl liked, so he could only let her ask it herself.
He had thought it through early on. If this girl asked for an exorbitant price, he would spend all his savings to get her what she wanted. Otherwise, he would have to bear the consequences! Why did Lao Liu have to die? Because he was secretly in contact with Fu Rong Ji!
He just embezzled public funds, took a little interest, and then returned the money. If he really couldn't hide it anymore, he could just push Huo's brother to the front, and that would be it!
Could his sister-in-law really call for his death?
He, Chen Wu, is not someone who would be coerced by a young girl!
But…
etc?
What does this girl want?
Want a shop in Xuancheng?
"What about the shop in Jing County?" Chen Laowu narrowed his eyes.
Xianjin smiled frankly, "Of course I'll leave it to Second Master. Since the name of the household registration belongs to Second Master, as Third Master's daughter, there's no need for me to work so hard for Second Uncle, right?"
If we give it to that idiot Chen Cai, isn't that the same as giving it to him! ?
Liuzhangxuan - the first good thing that comes to mind!
Chen Laowu was surprised and couldn't help laughing. "Your idea is right... Girls will eventually get married. Jing County is a small place, and the circle of friends is so small, it's hard to find a suitable one. Xuancheng has a large population and a large area, so there are more choices. The third brother raised you as his own daughter, so he will naturally find a good family for you in Xuancheng."
Xianjin rolled his eyes silently.
I am really fed up with these "old dads".
These "old daddies'" ideas have been passed down for thousands of years and remain unchanged - any woman who has some tricks up her sleeves uses them all for the purpose of getting married!
Even if you say you want to be independent and don't care about marriage, you have to say one thing and mean another - "You put on lipstick today, tell me, who are you trying to seduce?"
It seems that women have brains just to get married.
When will these "old dads" of different ages finally understand that a woman working hard for her career may just want to buy herself a box of beautiful rouge; a woman putting on rouge may just want to look better today!
It has nothing to do with men or marriage, really!
Xianjin rolled his eyes and said, "Really?"
Master Chen Wu smiled and asked Xianjin to go inside and to the dark place.
Xianjin pretended not to understand and did not move.
Master Chen Wu pretended to be disappointed and said, "No matter what, Grandpa Wu understands you. You are an orphan girl with no one to rely on. If you don't take advantage of the mourning period to please the old lady, make some money, and make a name for yourself in the Chen family, who will support you when you get married? Your father can't even manage his own affairs. Even if he wants to take care of you, he can't get around his mother after all."
Xianjin rolled his eyes again, "You are so right."
Master Chen Wu smiled, not noticing that Xian Jin did not follow him into the darkness. Only his face was hidden in the dim night. "As I said, there is no conflict between the two of us that must be resolved - even to a certain extent, we can still cooperate."
Xianjin smiled and said, "Really? Please tell me in detail."
Well, you have used up all three tricks to deal with "Old Daddy" - is that right? You are awesome! Please tell me more.
Then the young girl can close her ears and have a moment of peace and quiet.
Master Chen Wu bowed his head, "The only smart person in the Chen family now is the old lady. The second son, Chen Cai, is honest but dull. Your father, Chen Fu, is out of touch with reality and doesn't care about anything. The second son of the next generation will pursue a career in politics, and the third and fourth sons can't keep up. We can completely keep to ourselves. You run your business and I run mine. The Chen family is such a big pie that we can be full even if we each take a bite. There is no need to tear our faces apart. In the end, the fisherman will benefit from the quarrel between the snipe and the clam."
What he said was very earnest and heartfelt.
If we weren't all thousand-year-old foxes, we would still listen to you talk about Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio.
Xianjin blinked and sighed softly, "Yes. You made a detour to come and have a drink with Master Li and the others, and sent a capable person to Jing County to work as the accountant. This was also your painstaking effort."
It wasn't her who started the war first, haha.
Master Chen Wu was silent for a moment, then stopped preaching and returned to the main topic, "There are three shops in Xuancheng, which one do you want?"
Xianjin said without hesitation, "The workshop in North Lane, Jixi."
Chen Laowu almost laughed out loud - it was true that the Chen family had three shops and three workshops in Xuancheng, but there were differences between the shops. For example, the mulberry paper workshop in the east of the city had the best returns and produced the best paper in recent years, with a monthly net profit of almost one hundred taels. The shop assistants' paper-making skills were almost all learned from the old man of the Chen family, that is, his father, and their techniques were impeccable.
On the other hand, the workshop in Beixiang, Jixi, is what they often call "mistress workshop".
There were three assistants, and they were engaged in the Chen family's lowest-level business - dragon beard grass pulp and paper. Almost all of the business went to the north, where the academic atmosphere was not so prosperous.
The profit is also low.
Thirty or forty taels a month is already pretty good, slightly better than the previous Jing County workshop. Moreover, the current owner of the "Xiao San Workshop" is not very courageous, and he always seeks to play it safe in everything he does. As a result, his subordinates are lazy and greedy, and they just muddle through all day long and get by just to get by.
The frog is boiled in warm water. The Jixi workshop is the warm water, and He Xianjin in front of us is the frog that jumped into it.
Why did he allow the Jixi workshop to do a perfunctory job?
No reason, because the shopkeeper is the only relative of his sister-in-law, Madam Qu. He clearly said that he just wanted to make a living with the salary and was not after power or money. Why did you force him to such a death?
He Xianjin still had a choice now, but he chose the worst one!
Master Chen Wu concealed his smile and said in an awkward tone, "The owner of the Jixi workshop is the old lady's nephew. If you go, I'm afraid..."
Xianjin readily made the second choice, "Then I'll choose the mulberry paper workshop at the east end of the city."
Chen Laowu:?
Then you should go and eat Qu’s cake!
Chen Laowu nodded immediately, and changed the subject very naturally, "Since you have made up your mind, then I, Fifth Grandpa, am very sincere and will definitely get it done for you. I am very sincere. The matter of the Jixi workshop will be settled after the New Year. When the time is right, you will hand over the money, goods, and people of the Jingxian workshop to me."
Money, things, people?
Xianjin raised his eyebrows.
What is most precious to her is not money or things, but people.
This group of friends around her.
"People?" Xianjin smiled. "The people from the Jingxian workshop did not sign a deed with the store, but a contract with the Third Master. It was signed in December last year, and it has just expired."
Xianjin paused, "If you are confident, you can ask them to renew the contract, but I advise you not to do unnecessary things. My guys all have their own shortcomings, and the biggest shortcoming is that they are honest and naive."
Master Chen Wu suddenly recalled the scene in Jing County where he ran and vomited while singing in the middle of the night before the New Year.
Forehead.
Suddenly, it seemed that I didn't have such an urgent desire and needed these...guys.
