When Xia Jin woke up, Lin Ziyi went to court. There were many things that he needed to deal with in court today.
I took leave yesterday and have to deal with the piled-up military affairs today.
Xia Jin put on men's clothes and left the general's mansion.
Today is the official opening day of Zhuifeng Express, and Xia Jin has to go and cut the ribbon.
As soon as they arrived at the scene, they saw that the gate was already crowded with people. Seeing Xia Jin coming, Mo Tuo hurriedly greeted him.
Xia Jin took the scissors, cut the silk with a burst of firecrackers, and tore off the red silk covering the Zhui Feng Express plaque.
Zhui Feng Express officially opened for business, and the first order it received was an order for Liniang to transport mineral veins.
But Xia Jin doesn’t want to open a escort agency, Xia Jin wants to open a courier service!
This requires setting up transfer stations and perfect routes in each city. Xia Jin has already asked Mo Tuo to do this.
Otherwise, we wouldn’t have waited so long to open!
After the grand opening ceremony, Xia Jin ordered someone to take out a bulletin board.
Prices and times for shipping items are written on the bulletin board.
"Items that originally took seven days to be delivered have now been shortened to just two days. Not only that, the price is also half cheaper!"
"real or fake!"
Everyone was talking about it, and then someone came in with the attitude of giving it a try.
After a while, I received one transaction after another.
The more orders that need to be delivered, the more escorts will be needed.
Xia Jin had already considered this. During this period, Muda became the overlord in Tongluo Lane and recruited a group of subordinates.
I learned that they were going to open a big escort agency, and the remuneration was generous, including food and drinks, and voluntary family care services after an accident.
Without saying a word, they joined in.
A boss who only wants to take advantage cannot retain people. If you want to retain people, you have to make them worry-free and then you can work wholeheartedly for Zhuifeng Express!
Zhui Feng Express opened successfully, but next, Xia Jin had to solve the spice problem that troubled her the most.
It was a coincidence that the two businessmen from the Kingdom of Jin who had been helped by Qin Hao'ou knew an overseas businessman who sold spices. They were introduced by him and quickly contacted him.
With Zhuifeng Express, spices can be brought back from outside the region, thus solving the spice problem in the Food God Hall and Desheng Building.
Business is in full swing, and the restaurant is always full of diners.
Xia Jin trained some chefs and asked Zhang Ma to take them to Wangxi Town to continue opening the Food Hall there.
I've been away for a while and it's not okay for the shop to remain empty.
It just so happens that Zhui Feng Express is now open, the spice problem has been solved, and I have extra financial resources to open a second food hall.
Next, Xia Jin plans to open a chain store wherever there is Zhuifeng Express.
Lin Ziyi has been busy with military affairs during this period. It has been a month and a half since he last left.
In the past month and a half, Xia Jin has been extremely busy.
However, now that everything is finally settled, Xia Jin can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
The sun was just right, Xia Jin was sitting on a wicker chair in the yard, holding pearl milk tea in her hand, basking in the sun.
It's summer now, so you can only get some sun in the morning, and your skin will peel off by noon.
Fortunately, we have a good disciple like Li Qiang, and there is never a shortage of ice cubes in the house. Even though it is already summer, there are ice cubes in the house to cool down, so I don’t feel too hot.
However, if I go out, I will sweat profusely and my clothes will be soaked due to the heat.
Xia Jin only wore a short-sleeved shirt when she was in her yard, but if she went out wearing this, she would be said to be immoral.
Xia Jin was holding the drawings, thinking that since he couldn't change their minds, he would change their trends.
Design several short-sleeved skirts, open a ready-made clothing store, and set off a fashion trend in the capital. In this way, everyone will wear short-sleeved skirts, and no one will say it is immoral.
"Madam, the old lady please come over." Outside, the maid reported.
Xia Jin got up, put on her thin coat and walked out. As she walked, she asked the maid.
"Grandma, why are you looking for me?"
"Today is Mrs. Qi's birthday, and the old lady should be attending the birthday banquet!" the maid said.
Xia Jin has been so busy these days that she forgot about this matter!
The old lady did tell her a few days ago that she was going to attend a banquet at Madam Qi's house.
Mrs. Qi is the same age as the old lady. She was once a good friend of the old lady, and now she is an old best friend. She also walks around on weekdays.
Therefore, Mrs. Qi invited me, so I naturally went.
"I'm going to change some clothes!"
Xia Jin returned to the house and chose clothes suitable for attending the banquet. For this kind of occasion, it was better to keep a low profile. After all, Xia Jin didn't like to be the center of attention.
Compared with the content of the banquet, she was more concerned about whether the food at the banquet was delicious.
After getting dressed, Xia Jin arrived at the main courtyard.
Seeing Xia Jin arrived and dressed up, the old lady nodded with satisfaction.
"Jin'er, let's go!"
Xia Jin walked over and helped the old lady up.
The two of them left the General's Mansion and got on the carriage heading to Qi's Mansion.
"Mrs. Qi is an easy-going person. She likes to just sit there when she gets there. She doesn't like to listen to us, so she goes for a walk in the yard. Mrs. Qi likes sunflowers and has planted a flower field in the backyard. You can go and have a look when the time comes!"
said.
Xia Jin became a little interested in the sunflower field.
Not long after, when they arrived at the banquet, Mrs. Qi had no power. She was just an ordinary old woman. She was widowed in her early years, raised a pair of children by herself, and became a moderate official.
He wasn't very promising, but he was an upright man, so he didn't get into any trouble.
However, this birthday banquet was a little deserted. After all, most people who came to the banquet came with a purpose.
If there is no benefit to be gained, there will be no need to maintain unnecessary interpersonal relationships.
Seeing the old lady coming, Mrs. Qi came over to welcome her, and several old sisters gathered around to chat with each other.
The old lady was right, she was really not interested...
Just in time, let’s go see the sunflower field in the backyard!
Xia Jin walked out of the hall, walked around a garden, and saw a field of golden sunflowers. At this moment, many ladies were already here.
It seems that there are quite a few ladies who don't like chatting with the old lady and the others.
Before I even got close, I heard a burst of laughter, as if something interesting was happening over there.
Xia Jin looked over and was stunned after just one glance!
I saw that these young ladies were surrounding a young man. The young man had a chain around his neck and was crawling on the ground like a dog, eating the food thrown by the young ladies on the ground with his mouth.
The dog-like appearance made these ladies laugh.
If the young man disobeys, someone will whip him from behind, and the young man will continue to eat food off the ground.
The young man raised his head and accidentally saw Xia Jin standing behind him, and was stunned after just one glance.
"..."
"Why aren't you moving?" The young man was whipped on the back. He groaned in pain, but did not move, but stared at Xia Jin.
"Oh, you need a spanking, right?"
The man whipped him again, leaving a bloody streak on the boy's back.
"stop!"
Xia Jin walked over quickly and stood in front of the young man.
The men, including these young ladies, all looked at him strangely. The man who had been beating the young boy fiercely just now recognized Xia Jin's identity and put on a flattering look.
"Madam General, he is just a slave, like an animal!"
"In my eyes, he is a person!" Xia Jin angrily grabbed the chain around the young man's neck, squeezed it hard, and it broke with a click!
