The wool comes from the sheep.
This money ultimately belongs to those who suffered the most, not to us.
If Ah Qiang repays the debt, but the money remains with me, what kind of situation is that?
She has no intention of keeping the money!
Fortunately, by this time there were already many places that cared for orphans, so he asked the nanny around him to handle the matter and make sure that the money was used effectively.
This matter must be handled personally by someone close to me to ensure that no one is outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant, and it's quite a sum of money.
A few hundred taels of silver would probably be enough for those orphanages around the capital to live comfortably for a long time!
In fact, Jingrou usually pays attention to this kind of thing when she does things. A lot of money is used by her to support these lonely people. Although life in the capital is definitely better than in other places, there are still such vulnerable groups, especially orphans.
Orphans like these are abandoned not only because their parents died in accidents, but also because they suffer from some kind of illness.
Raising such people is more difficult and costly than raising ordinary children. However, the court did not abandon this group of people, but the funds allocated were very limited and could only barely sustain their lives.
That's why someone like Jingrou is needed to step in.
However, the amount of silver notes she could control before was quite small, because she usually lived in the palace and Prince An's mansion and rarely went out, so the silver notes had no use.
Her basic needs—food, clothing, shelter, and transportation—were all arranged for her. Only now, as she gradually begins to access some of her mother's dowry and develop some businesses, has she started to have more disposable income.
Although he had some before, he couldn't very well ask his grandmother for money and do such a thing. It would be much more convenient for him to have his own say in things!
However, she had already made up her mind that she would definitely set aside a certain percentage of such money in the future to help build an orphanage and possibly support disaster relief in some areas... Consider it her small contribution to the world.
Although she wasn't particularly superstitious, her own rebirth was a mysterious event, so there were some things she couldn't help but believe in.
She only hoped that what she did would benefit herself and her family; she couldn't care less about anything else.
Not to mention that in previous years, she often went to burn incense and worship Buddha with her maternal grandmother, which can be considered as being influenced by this. She has always held a sense of awe for this, and in any case, doing more good deeds can never be a bad thing.
Otherwise, what's the point of accumulating all that merit?
This shows that the system itself recognizes this, otherwise it wouldn't allow you to connect with those who have performed great deeds to earn points!
After leaving the shop, Jingrou was also thinking about how to make it develop better in the future...
While the presence of someone like Ah Qiang is undoubtedly a significant reason why this shop struggles to grow, the fact that the manager is preoccupied with other trivial matters and has little time to attend to other aspects is even more crucial. Without a courageous and proactive leader, how can this shop possibly thrive?
However, Jingrou doesn't plan to replace the shopkeeper for the time being, mainly because she can't find someone as knowledgeable about the shop and easy to work with as Jingrou in the short term. But some of the fabrics and the business model in the shop probably need to be changed. Jingrou has looked at these fabrics, and they're not exactly trendy; at least for her, they're styles from last year or even the year before.
While this shop might not be considered particularly high-end, it's definitely in the mid-to-high-end range or above. How could she possibly succeed in business with these fabrics that she considered outdated?
Others aren't blind; gradually, fewer and fewer people will come!
However, Jingrou felt that the potential of this shop and her own qualifications should not be limited to this.
The jewelry I'm wearing was something I created on a whim just to look pretty, but if I put it in a shop to sell, judging from how others reacted today, there would definitely be people interested!
Jingrou felt the allure of money begin to gleam in her eyes!
I need to think this over carefully and see which jewelry designs are easy to mass-produce. When I gave the designs to the craftsmen before, I only considered whether the items would look good, without considering the cost. So, if many of my hairpins were made, the cost would be too high, and many people probably wouldn't be able to afford them on the market.
Back at Prince An's residence, Jingrou told her maternal grandmother about the incident. Her grandmother, Hesheli, looked very pleased, realizing that her Zhuzhu had truly grown up.
“Zhuzhu did a great job with this, but you can’t take such risks in the future. You should bring more people with you when you go out. With only Lingxiao… if the other party is highly skilled in martial arts, or if they are desperate, I can’t guarantee your safety,” Hesheli said with a smile.
This wasn't because Heseri distrusted her; he was simply more cautious.
Jingrou nodded obediently. She only dared to take the risk because she was confident that Ling Xiao was a highly skilled martial artist, someone others could not match. If she were only accompanied by a maid, she definitely wouldn't have dared to go.
Although she had practiced some martial arts, what she had learned was nothing but amateurish skill in front of a true master, and it was no match for them.
“Yes, what shopkeeper is so incompetent? He should be dismissed! How dare he try to fool Zhuzhu like this!” Aunt Irgen Gioro said.
"It's alright, Aunt. This matter has been resolved. Although he was negligent in this matter, he was generally responsible. If something like this happens again, it's not too late to punish him severely!" Jingrou smiled. "Besides, I don't know much about this shop yet, and there will be times when I need it!"
Hesheli nodded.
If she were to handle this matter, she would probably end up like Zhuzhu. Although it's said that Aqiang is cunning and treacherous, he is still capable of getting things done.
If we completely abandon such talent, we'll have wasted several years of training effort. Besides, the shop is currently short-staffed, and training new people will definitely require more effort.
However, if we want to reuse this person, we must keep a tight grip on him and prevent him from having any ulterior motives!
To achieve this, one needs to strike a balance.
The fact that Zhuzhu was able to consider this matter from the outset, instead of acting impulsively, is what she did best. Usually, if someone were deceived like this, they would be furious and try every means to punish the person in front of them!
They probably wouldn't consider things as comprehensively as Zhuzhu, who is only a teenager. Hesheli was filled with pride.
