The place where Liu'er lived was not far from Tao's yard. Lin Jinrong walked for a short while before arriving at the yard door. As soon as Lychee opened the door, a yellow and white, furry and cute puppy waddled away.
He came out, stopped at Lin Jinrong's feet, and lowered his head to smell her shoes.
"How could there be a dog?" Lychee went to chase the dog away strangely, but saw the pink and white fat Liu'er running out: "Dudu, dudu..." When he saw Lin Jinrong, he smiled and turned to pull Lin Jinrong's hand.
: "Sister..." Lin Shiquan stood in the corridor, looking at Lin Jinrong and smiling.
Lin Jinrong shook Liu'er's hand, pointed at the puppy that was wagging its tail and circling around Liu'er, and asked, "Did the third brother bring it?"
"I came in a hurry, and I didn't discuss it with Third Aunt and you." Lin Shiquan came over, a little uneasy: "This dog is not big and has a good temper. It won't bark. Just don't let it out of the yard. Let Liu'er do it."
A playmate." After all, you live in someone else's home, and as a living creature, you have to be careful about causing trouble and displeasure to others.
"It's okay, my mother and I are not afraid of dogs. We just discussed with my mother the day before yesterday to choose a five or six-year-old girl to be Liu'er's playmate. If the third brother has a suitable person, it will be the same as sending him over." Lin Jinrong completely understood.
According to Lin Shiquan's mood, Liu'er really has no playmates here. He can't play with other girls and young men of similar age in the Lin family, nor can he play with the children of the Lin family's servants.
He just mentioned it, and Lin Jinrong knew what he was thinking, and was so generous. Lin Shiquan couldn't help but smile: "I saw one a few days ago, and I am learning the rules from the third sister at the moment. I will send it over for chewing when it is almost done."
I'll come out." After saying this, he looked at Lin Jinrong's expression nervously. He had been learning business from Tao Shunqin, and his skills were very good.
After saving some money, he would send money and things back every now and then. Although the help of Lin Jinrong and Tao could not be calculated clearly with these things, he did not want to take advantage of them in vain, nor did he want to keep his son.
He grew up with the reputation of being given charity. But those little fights were completely different from pushing someone in. He was afraid that Lin Jinrong would feel uncomfortable.
Lin Jinrong said nonchalantly: "Okay. When the third brother has more money, he can buy a house and add a few people to take care of his son." As soon as she said this, Lizhi and Lin Shiquan couldn't help but look at her at the same time, but they saw
She was calm and composed, her eyes were clear, and only then was she convinced that she was telling the truth.
The reason why Mr. Tao can trust him so much has a lot to do with Liu'er staying here. It's not that Lin Shiquan doesn't understand this truth, but now Lin Jinrong clearly told him that he can take Liu'er out at any time as long as he wants.
. It's not coercion, it's not a condition, it's not an exchange. Lin Shiquan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then looked up at Lin Jinrong and smiled brightly: "If you follow me, you will probably become a wild girl in the end. If she follows you, I feel more at ease."
Lin Jinrong breathed out softly and pointed to the stone table and bench under the tree: "Third brother, I have an idea to discuss with you. I plan to open a fragrant medicine shop in Pingzhou, so I asked my uncle to help purchase the goods..."
After hearing what she said, Lin Shiquan was a little surprised: "But this business is not as profitable as the business that my uncle and the others are doing now, and there are risks."
Lin Jinrong smiled slightly: "Don't be afraid. Which of these fragrant medicine shops in Pingzhou City is the cleanest? Others can do it, and we can do it too. And we have the right time, place and people."
Her real plan was to do the same thing as others before the sale of fragrant medicines was opened up. She bought the goods from regular channels and sold them privately. She used this as an excuse to save a batch of goods.
After the government officially released thirty-seven kinds of fragrant medicine, Tao Shunqin and others would provide her with high-quality and low-price goods.
Right here, the business of buying and selling fragrant medicine in Cheongju was stopped! Let me ask you, if you can buy it at the same price and the same quality from Pingzhou, why go to Qingzhou to buy it? And as the government liberalizes fragrant medicine
Selling and smuggling fragrant medicines will soon have no advantages at all. Having this shop will be beneficial to everyone.
Lin Shiquan didn't know her true intention, and he carefully considered whether her plan could really make money and the changes it would bring to him. Feeling excited and worried at the same time, he opened and closed his palms on the stone table, realizing that this action had leaked
After understanding his mood, he grabbed the tea cup and kept drinking water.
He didn't have much confidence, but he wanted to do it! He wanted to use his skills independently as much as she did. Lin Jinrong simply ended his conversation: "What do you think, third brother?"
Lin Shiquan said with some difficulty: "Let me think about it."
Lin Jinrong's slender white fingers gently turned the green-glazed tea cup, with a quiet and calm expression: "If Third Brother feels unsure, you can also ask an experienced steward. You can just watch for us. Take your time, no
Anxious." What she meant by asking him was not to ask him to make up her mind for her, but to tell him that there was such a thing. No one could stop her determination.
Lin Shiquan was silent for a long time and said in a low voice: "Hire an experienced accountant. Then hire a manager who can speak well and do what he does."
After all, she has practiced and knows how to help people. It is impossible to hold all the power and money in her hands. She can also take the initiative to propose it before she speaks. Lin Jinrong also told him the truth: "The accountant must be carefully selected.
Third brother, you are tired after traveling for a long time. Take a rest. I will go back first. My mother may talk to you. Third brother thinks about how to talk to her." He then said solemnly: "There is also a third brother in this shop.
share."
Lin Shiquan sent Lin Jinrong away and looked back at the budding plum tree beside the wall. Dudu was chasing the white butterflies all over the yard, and Liu'er was happily chasing Dudu. He clenched his fists and unclenched them.
He took a long breath against the blue sky and told himself that there might only be one such opportunity in this life, and he could only succeed and not fail.
Li Zhi asked Lin Jinrong in a low voice: "Girl, regarding the matter of keeping the girl, I'm afraid my wife will be unhappy if she knows that you easily agreed to Young Master Quan. If Young Master Quan really takes the girl out, won't you be afraid?"
"Afraid. Why not?" Lin Jinrong sighed softly: "But it's not the first time I know that he has ambitions. If he is not happy and doesn't believe me, it will be harmful to force him to stay. How can force and willingness be the same?"
For example, she was willing to accept the girls that Lin Shiquan brought in. Lin Shiquan took the initiative to let them assign accountants and stewards in order to reassure the other party. But she believed that under such circumstances, it was impossible for Lin Shiquan to leave here.
Although Lin Jinrong had had discussions with Tao before, he still ran into trouble when he was actually preparing to implement it.
Although Mrs. Tao also believed that she should not be overly attached to the Tao family, and Lin Jinrong's proposal to hire another accountant also won her heart, she was still worried that it was inappropriate: "If we suddenly open a fragrant medicine shop, won't we offend others? Dafang
I am jealous of my second wife, and I don’t know what excuses I will come up with to stop him. If your grandfather says no, then it will be all in vain. Ah Quan has just studied for a year or two, so I asked him to manage the shop. Can it be done? "
Is she also afraid of offending people? It's just disapproval. Lin Jinrong couldn't help but smile and said: "As long as you live a good life and do things that make money, there will never be a shortage of people to hate you. I would rather be envied than be envied by others."
Don’t be jealous of others. My grandfather said that you are not allowed to use public money to do business, but you also acquiesce
The dowry is his own, he doesn't care. As for the third brother, ask your uncle to help choose a good and capable accountant who you can trust, and then choose a steward to help him. The salary will be higher, so what are you afraid of? There is no need to do it at the beginning.
No matter how old you are, take your time. If you want to eat a fat man in one bite, you won’t be able to eat it, right?”
Mr. Tao sat and thought for a moment. The more he thought about it, the more his brain hurt: "Let me think about it carefully."
Seeing her hesitation, Lin Jinrong simply forced her: "Mom, you can think about it slowly. I will go out and open the shop with the money in my hand first. After mother has thought about it, it will be the same if she adds more money."
.”
Although this was not stated explicitly, the meaning was that regardless of whether Tao agreed or not, she decided to open this shop. Tao choked and frowned at Lin Jinrong: "What if I don't allow you to use your money to open a shop?"
Lin Jinrong smiled softly: "If I don't tell my mother, how can my mother know?" Seeing Mrs. Tao's face change, she hurriedly said: "Of course I won't do this. How can I bear to deceive my mother? I just think,
The sooner we can stand on our own feet, the better it will be for my sister and my seventh brother. If mother is worried, why not write a letter and ask what uncle means?"
Mrs. Tao couldn't sleep that night, and said to Mother Gong: "Nanny's heart is getting bigger and bigger, her temper is getting tougher, and I don't know whether this is good or bad for her. If I don't allow her to open this shop, she will
I still have to do everything possible to open it. And I really don’t feel at ease if I really have to hand over such a large amount of money to Ah Quan." I regretted that I had followed Lin Jinrong too much earlier.
Mother Gong then said: "Madam, in my opinion, since the girl is determined to do something, it's better to just follow her wishes. Just put her name on her behalf. It's okay for children to have a little fight at home."
What impact will it have? Besides, looking at the girl’s enthusiasm, she may not really be compensated. If she is compensated, I’m not afraid, as it won’t hurt the fundamentals. If it can be done, and the girl enters the Lu family in the future, it will be a completely different matter. "
In other words, don't give Lin Jinrong too much money and don't allow her to use the dowry. If she really wants to do it, just let her use the little private money in her hand. But in fact, they don't know how much money Lin Jinrong has in her hand.
, I only know that Tao Shunqin is buying it
Lin Jinrong gave her a share when selling grain and fragrant medicine. Lin Jinrong did not miss any opportunity to make money, such as paying taxes in spring and autumn, and buying silver to pay tribute. Even one tael of silver could only earn about ten yuan.
, and she is absolutely not afraid of trouble.
On the second day, Mr. Tao gave Lin Shiquan a big black eye and asked Lin Shiquan to go in for questioning. After the questioning, he did not express his position. This made Lin Shiquan extremely anxious, but Lin Jinrong was not in a hurry. He took care of the family's affairs and asked Lin Shiquan to just go ahead.
Look at the storefront.
Two days later, Mrs. Tao called Lin Jinrong: "I wrote a letter for Mrs. Song to take back to your uncle. If he agrees with you to open this shop, I will let you open it, but there is one thing: you are not allowed to use the prepared dowry.
Any loss or gain is yours."
Lin Jinrong smiled and said: "I also wrote a letter to my uncle, and I happened to take it back with me." She was very sorry that Tao refused to place a bet, but this was just the beginning, so take your time.
