Chapter 431: The Rich Erya
Because traces of anti-party interference were found in this incident.
"Anti-Party?" Lu Qiniang was completely confused. "The King of Yue has been dead for decades. How could he be so powerful that he still had those people working for him?"
On the other hand, Xiao Yan, Jiang Xuan and others were worried every day that once they left the Black Armor Army, they would be forgotten by everyone.
She really wanted to ask, what was the King of Yue using to make this pot of tea, and why wasn't it cold?
"Mother, I'm just using the title of King of Yue. In any dynasty, there are always people who are dissatisfied with the imperial power and intend to overthrow it." Daya explained with a smile, "There must be a legitimate reason for doing so."
These people, collectively known as anti-party members, have been thorns in the eyes and flesh of emperors of all dynasties and will never be tolerated.
"Then I think the King of Yue is also powerful, otherwise why wouldn't he use someone else's name?" Lu Qiniang said, "But your father, this time, can be considered a blessing in disguise. If the emperor knows, he will be more reliable than those people."
She was really happy for Xiao Yan.
Although she advised Xiao Yan to listen to the emperor, someone had to do all the work.
No one wants to take care of the children, so he has to go.
But Lu Qiniang also felt sorry for Xiao Yan.
It's okay now.
Lu Qiniang felt a sense of pride.
The emperor finally knows who is more useful.
But looking at Xiao Yan, he didn't seem very happy about this matter.
Even some resistance.
Because he was still thinking about Lu Qiniang's pregnancy, he wanted to spend more time with her and didn't want to be too busy.
Lu Qiniang: "...I can still be pregnant for the rest of my life! But opportunities to pursue a better future don't always come. Go and do your own thing. There are so many people at home, can't you take care of me? Others can take care of me just as well as you can."
However, in the end, there was no follow-up on this matter.
Because Taifu Xie strongly opposed it.
The emperor was already hesitant, so the matter was put on hold for the time being.
Daya and Lu Qinniang said that it was also because this year's training was over.
This official position is currently vacant. After the busy farming season in autumn, when someone comes to Beijing for training, the emperor will probably bring up the old matter again.
By then, it will most likely be given to Xiao Yan.
"Just at that time, Mom also gave birth, so Dad didn't have to worry about her every day."
Lu Qiniang strongly suspected that Xiao Yan had turned it down himself, but she had no evidence.
Time quickly entered March, and Lu Qinniang's morning sickness was over.
She went around the shop as usual.
But I can't work anymore.
It's not that she doesn't want to, it's that no one will let her.
She benefited from her son's help, and everyone wanted to worship her.
Daya rented another house and recruited more than a hundred girls. The scale of the school expanded a lot compared to before, and its influence became bigger and bigger.
Mrs. Li, who played chess with Daya in the first month of the year, not only came to the school to teach the girls how to play chess, but also mobilized her friends to help.
The development of the girls' school has received enthusiastic help from many people.
On Erya's side, business is also booming.
She rented a shop on her own according to her own ideas and was willing to spend money.
After signing a five-year lease, she made up her mind and spent more than a thousand taels of silver to decorate the shop magnificently, while the interior was leisurely and comfortable, with a very high style.
Lu Qiniang was always worried that she was taking too big a step, so she would come to check on her from time to time.
She found that there were not many customers!
In the morning, there are probably only ten or eight people coming. When there are fewer people, there may be three or five.
Can this pay off?
Look at her shop on the dock, people coming and going in an endless stream, that's a sign of a booming business.
She felt that Arya was going to lose.
But she didn't dare to say it directly, for fear that Erya would get angry.
Especially since she is pregnant now, she is always worried that Arya will feel neglected.
Although Xiao Yan always said that she thought too much.
Lu Qiniang could only comfort Erya in a roundabout way: "No matter what you do, it's rare to get it right the first time."
Erya said, "That's right. That's why I think Chang Hui is truly amazing. Mother, look at our Sihai. This is his first time as the head shopkeeper, but look at the daily and monthly revenue, and the current evaluation of Sihai by the people in the capital... He is truly amazing."
Although Sihai has only been open for four months, it has already earned a reputation in Beijing for having a "complete and high-end range of goods."
Many wealthy families have begun to recognize the "four seas".
Lu Qiniang said hurriedly: "Yes, Chang Hui is very capable, and you have good taste. Thanks to you for strongly recommending Chang Hui."
The implication is that although you may lose some money in business, there are also advantages elsewhere.
Erya didn't know this was a comfort, and she held her chin up and said, "Mom, I really think I can consider Chang Hui."
He was a hardworking man; despite his humble background, he never complained about his circumstances. He was quiet, cautious, and calm...
"From what I've seen, I also think Chang Hui is good." Lu Qiniang nodded, "Let's spend another year or two together. If you think he's okay and he doesn't object, I'll bring it up then."
She doesn't believe that women must be reserved.
There are really not many good men in this world.
Act quickly, decisively and accurately.
"Yeah." Erya smiled.
"You shameless girl." Lu Qiniang scolded with a smile.
"I'm serious," Erya said confidently. "I can't stay single forever. I still want to have a few daughters! Since I'm going to get married, I have to keep my eyes open and choose a good one for myself."
Lu Qiniang gave her a thumbs up.
"clever."
Seeing Erya's cheerful mood, Lu Qiniang dared to test her: "Even if your rouge shop loses some money, don't get upset. It's all your previous earnings. Besides, the shop isn't a dead end. If things don't work out, you can always sublet it. I don't think the losses will be too great. If things don't work out, I'll secretly give you some money. Don't get upset."
"Mother, what are you talking about?" Erya said, "How could I possibly lose money? I wouldn't dare compare myself to Sihai. After all, they have a much larger traffic flow and demand. But I can always make half of what Sihai makes."
She does the accounting every day and also looks at Sihai's accounts, keeping track of every penny.
Lu Qiniang knew that Sihai was now making a profit of nearly a hundred taels a day, so she was shocked when she heard Erya say that.
"So profitable? But I don't see anyone here!" she blurted out.
"There's no one here because I sent everyone here," Arya said proudly. "Haven't you noticed that I asked my eldest sister for sixteen girls, and now they rarely show up in the shop?"
After being trained by Aunt Sang, these girls are not very good in terms of etiquette, but they are all presentable.
They now provide "door-to-door service".
Lu Qiniang was shocked by Erya's intelligence and couldn't help but say, "What's wrong with your brain? How are you so good at making money?"
"That's right. I've told you long ago that you'll have a good life with me in the future. Just wait and enjoy my blessings." Erya said proudly, "Mom, just wait, when I make money, I'll buy us a bigger house, one with a big garden and a lake."
"Forget it, how many people would it take to clean it, and how much money would it cost? There are only a few of us, and we can still have eight rooms to ourselves at night!"
Arya laughed.
