[It turns out that the title of "Mrs. Mingyi" has such requirements...]
【A person who understands the greater good and the truth, and is a role model...】
[The Queen Mother bestowed the title on her. If her words and deeds do not meet the requirements of the title, it would be considered disrespectful to the Queen Mother? According to the law, she would be punished with a beating at the very least, or death at the worst?]
【See if she cherishes her life! 】
[What if she refuses the title bestowed by her mother? ]
[What? Father Emperor and Mother Empress give gifts, no one dares to refuse? Refusing is also disrespectful? ]
【Great! Great! 】
[Giving her this "high hat" is like an invisible cage. Let's see how she dares to show off in the future?! ]
After hearing the Queen's explanation, Lady Jun Baozhu understood the Queen's intentions even more and kowtowed to express her gratitude.
The queen asked the female guard to help the woman up. Before the woman stood up, she knelt and thanked him and promised:
"Thank you for your kindness, Madam Queen. From now on, I will definitely listen to your teachings and stand up!
As for donations, I will go back to my parents' home and confess my previous situation. I am willing to donate 10,000 gold.
Dad and Mom will definitely agree!"
The queen nodded with a smile, and the officials' wives and businesswomen around her all showed expressions of relief.
Watching the woman's back as she left, Jun Baozhu commented seriously:
[Fortunately, I still have a clear mind! ]
[Otherwise, it would be a waste of the Queen Mother's words, and the Queen Mother might not help her! ]
The Queen and Concubine Duan understood what she meant and looked at Jun Baozhu with unconcealed love.
There was a hushed conversation all around, and the fifth woman had been brought forward.
She was also a businessman’s wife, willing to spend a huge amount of extra money to be at the front of the line.
After the woman bowed, the queen asked with a smile:
"What do you want to ask?"
Jun Baozhu opened her eyes wide and listened intently.
His serious look deeply touched the wives of officials and businessmen, and they couldn't help but smile.
"Your Majesty, the question I want to ask is very simple...
I want to know whether the ten taels of silver that were stolen from me recently were stolen by my husband.
As soon as the words fell, the scene seemed to be frozen in complete silence.
After a short pause, some women looked around with surprise.
The first voice heard was still Jun Baozhu's inner voice.
【What? How much? 】
[Did I hear it wrong? Ten taels of silver? ]
[She spent a thousand gold coins to go to the scene and ask her mother if the ten taels of silver were stolen by her husband?]
[Is this a case of a confused mind or a poor question to support the Queen Mother?]
[If you just want to donate money, why ask this? Can't you just give up? It will save everyone's time. ]
【What? No? Is she serious?!】
[Instead of paying one thousand gold, she paid an extra one thousand gold. Did she come to line up early? ]
So, the question she asked was very important to her?
After hearing what Jun Baozhu said, the people around who were originally laughing became serious and waited carefully for the details.
The system conducted an extensive search based on the information she reported and informed Jun Baozhu of the relevant situation.
[Her husband's family is a famous wealthy businessman in Beijing? ]
[The family is big and the parents-in-law are sensible, so let her take charge of the family? 】
[She is also responsible for the family business and the public accounts? ]
Having revealed this, he was not at all aware of the strange looks from those around him.
This mother-in-law is completely different from the previous woman.
Such a large family property was actually handed over to his daughter-in-law to manage, and she also had to take care of the money and public accounts. Many women looked jealous.
Jun Baozhu continued to recall the information just revealed by the system.
[The reason her parents-in-law gave her the family business was that, besides her being good at calculations and quick in reaction, and having a talent for business, her husband was unambitious, timid, and slow in reaction? ]
[So, the father-in-law and mother-in-law chose a daughter-in-law who complemented their son? They valued the other party's character and ability, not family background? ]
[Her family was born into an ordinary merchant family. Her parents were originally fishermen. Under her suggestion, they bought a shop and no longer sold freshly caught fish at a low price. Instead, they sold them directly to the people? ]
[Although the sales are not as fast as selling to vendors, the profit is high. She also helps to kill the fish and process them according to the requirements. She never shortchanges the fish or sells inferior products as good ones, and gradually accumulates repeat customers.]
[After the fish shop business got on track, she handed it over to her younger brother to take care of it. Oh, by the way! Her younger brother only helped for half a year because she insisted on sending her younger brother to school after the family business took off! ]
[In addition to the retail business, she also contacted restaurants and food stores to supply them with fish.]
[These restaurants have fixed suppliers and will not easily accept her family's products. Moreover, her family is just a small vendor. If something goes wrong with the fish, it will ruin the store's reputation that has lasted for decades.]
[But she told the steward that they could buy it whenever they wanted, with no limit on the quantity.]
[Therefore, when the fresh fish business in restaurants and food stores is good and they have sold out, if they meet old customers and ask for more dishes...]
[If we only add a few fresh fish, the suppliers may not be willing to make a trip. Even if they do, they will remind the purchasing manager to make up for their trip in the future.]
[When faced with such a situation, a store finally remembered her family and sent her fish, which was not only fresh but also better in quality than the fishmongers who supplied them.]
[There was no complaint at all, but he was very considerate and gave some small fish and shrimp as gifts...]
【Gradually, many restaurants and food stores also asked her to deliver goods.】
[The price we offer to restaurants and food stores is much lower than retail prices. Although we are not losing money, we are not making much profit.]
[The news that she was supplying fish to famous restaurants and food stores gradually spread, and more people came to her house to buy fish.]
[Some dignitaries and wealthy families also began to place orders from her. ]
[Although it was a business, because she was sincere and reliable, many managers of noble families gradually became familiar with her...]
[When her family's business was booming and she was troubled by other fish collectors, some managers found out and secretly punished the troublemakers, and her family had less and less resistance.]
Jun Baozhu suddenly realized:
[So, when she first started delivering goods to restaurants and food establishments, she did so not to make money, but to increase her popularity and improve her status? ]
[Delivering goods to the rich and powerful is not for making money, but to find a life-saving talisman for one's own shop? ]
[What a talent! A clear mind! ]
[Her family's business was booming, so her parents stopped fishing and used the money their daughter earned to buy a few boats and hire people to fish?]
[The fish shop hired someone to help her run it, and her younger brother learned from her and became familiar with the business. He also learned to read and write. Now he is at her husband's house, helping to manage part of the business? ]
[When choosing a daughter-in-law, did her parents-in-law carefully select her for several years before they chose her? ]
[No wonder he trusted her so much that he even arranged for his brother-in-law to manage the business at home. ]
[If that's the case, why did she argue with her husband so much and care so much about just ten taels of silver? ]
[What? She is not calculating, but she has never failed in her business since she started it...]
[But the missing ten taels of silver turned out to be an unsolved case, causing her to fall into self-doubt and suffer a great blow? ]
