95 Furniture Museum opens (seeking votes~)
Chen Mei smiled, "Your father and I have discussed it. Let your elder brother study hard in the academy. When he passes the exam and becomes an official in the future, he can repay the princess' kindness."
The three of them chatted about family matters for a while, and then fell silent.
Jiang Yun felt that the time was about up, so he brought Lan Zhi back.
When the three men saw Jiang Yun, they knelt down, and Du Qiushi told Jiang Yun what they had just thought.
Jiang Yun smiled and shook his head and said, "You three don't have to stay with me."
The three of them became anxious when they heard this.
It’s already guilty enough that the princess refused to keep some of them around to work, but if she doesn’t even keep her daughter by her side, how can they repay the favor?
Both of them expressed that they wanted their daughter to stay and continue to be Jiang Yun's maid to repay the couple's kindness.
Tears welled up in Helu's eyes. She looked at Jiang Yun and asked aggrievedly, "Princess, don't you want Helu anymore?"
Jiang Yun patted her shoulder gently and said with a smile, "Don't cry."
Du Qiushi and Chen Mei knelt down beside Jiang Yun's legs and said, "Princess, if you don't want to keep us, please keep He Lu. That way, He Lu can repay you on our behalf!"
Seeing that their expressions did not seem to be fake, Jiang Yun smiled and said, "No need. This princess does not allow you to stay with me because I have more important things to entrust to you."
The three of them were stunned for a moment, and looked at Jiang Yun with confusion on their faces.
Jiang Yun said to the three of them, "Get up, let's sit down and talk. This will take a long time."
Du Qiushi and Chen Mei looked at each other and saw determination in each other's eyes.
Then they helped each other to stand up.
He Lu also stood up slowly.
But the three of them still stood there uncomfortably, looking at Jiang Yun uncertainly.
Jiang Yun smiled and pointed to the seat next to her, "Go ahead, Lanzhi, bring some hot tea."
The three of them then sat down, but none of them touched the teacups on the table. Instead, they looked at Jiang Yun intently.
Jiang Yun sighed softly and said, "This princess wants to run a medicine shop, specializing in selling pills with various effects. No one in the palace is good at running a medicine shop. This princess thinks that Doctor Du and Madam Du have some experience. If this matter is handed over to you, maybe it can be accomplished."
She paused here and said, "Of course! This princess will not let you work for me for nothing. Doctor Du and Madam Du will get ten taels of silver each month. As for He Lu, she will report the store situation to this princess every once in a while. It may be more difficult, so this princess will give her fifteen taels of silver each month. What do you think?"
Du Qiushi and Chen Mei wanted to ask for money as early as when Jiang Yun said she wanted to give it.
But he didn't dare to interrupt Jiang Yun.
Now it was finally their turn, and the two of them spoke immediately.
"The princess is our Du family's savior. We work for her and it is our duty to repay her. How can we ask for her money? This is not okay!"
Jiang Yun stopped laughing, looked at the two of them and said, "If you don't want this money, then this princess won't ask you to do anything."
He Lu became anxious after hearing this. She stretched out her hands to tug at their sleeves and whispered, "Dad, Mom! The princess always keeps her word. If you don't want to, the princess will really not let you do anything for her!"
Du Qiushi and Chen Mei originally wanted to work for Jiang Yun.
Now, after listening to what Jiang Yun and their daughter said, the two looked at each other, then looked at Jiang Yun and said, "Princess, we agree."
Jiang Yun looked at He Lu, "What about you?"
He Lu nodded: "I am willing to do that too."
Jiang Yun frowned upon hearing this, and then said, "When you go out to work, don't be a slave anymore. Later, I'll have Nanny Wang return your indenture to you. You go to the government to report it, cancel your slave status, and restore your real name, so that you can help this princess in the future."
Du Rou nodded and said, "Yes! Nu, Rou'er thanks the princess."
Du Qiushi and Chen Mei also looked at Jiang Yun with gratitude.
Jiang Yun picked up the teacup and took a sip, then looked at the three people and said, "First, find a good shop. Try to make it as big as possible, and it would be best if you can buy it directly! Price is not a problem. When the business is up and running, I will have Uncle Fu send someone to deliver the pills in the pharmacy."
That's all for now. Although Jiang Yun has a plan for the rest, there's no need to tell them too much at once and cause them to make mistakes in a hurry.
Let’s just take one step at a time now.
Du Qiushi and Chen Mei said with determination: "Don't worry, Princess. We will definitely find the best medicine shop for you."
Du Rou asked softly, "Does the princess want a name for the pharmacy?"
Jiang Yun smiled and said, "Let's call it Jishidiang."
In the blink of an eye, two months passed.
It was the second day of July.
During this period, Jiang Yun has been very busy.
One was to open a medicine shop so that he could refine more pills and avoid being too busy when the business was about to start; the other was to have Zhufeng buy the furniture shop he had found and wait for Jiang Yun to come up with a decoration plan and select suitable craftsmen and bricklayers.
And today is the opening day of her furniture store.
Jiang Yun deliberately took off her cumbersome clothes, changed into a light green shirt, tied her hair into a bun, and went out.
Outside the furniture store, everyone had already become curious after so many days of promotion by the shopkeeper Feng Yuan.
They all wanted to know what a flushable toilet and something that would allow them to shower while standing would look like.
Now on the opening day, there are crowds of people outside the store, all wanting to be the first to rush in so as to take a look at the true appearance of those things.
The shopkeeper stood at the door of the store, with young and strong craftsmen and bricklayers standing on both sides to prevent anyone from rushing up and disrupting the opening ceremony.
Jiang Yun originally came here by carriage, but there were so many people on the street that the carriage could not pass through, so she had to abandon the carriage and get off and walk over.
Feng Yuan saw Jiang Yun from a distance and immediately walked through the crowd to pick her up.
"Princess, you are here."
Jiang Yun nodded, looked at the crowd, and praised: "Not bad, your publicity these days is very good."
Feng Yuan scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "I didn't do anything. It's mainly because the things sold in the store are too rare and the prices are not high."
Jiang Yun nodded, then looked at the bluestone road under her feet and curled her lips slightly.
"Of course, the price of things cannot be too high. After all, selling these things is the first step."
Feng Yuan chuckled, "I understand, small profits but quick turnover is the second step."
Jiang Yun raised her eyebrows and neither said yes nor no.
When the time comes, Feng Yuan will know.
Anyway, she has already asked Gong Qi to help her write the memorial. She just needs to wait for the emperor to agree, and then she can roll up her sleeves and get to work!
Feng Yuan felt that it was very difficult for him to squeeze out to pick up Jiang Yun, but when he went back with Jiang Yun, he felt very relaxed...
