"Mother, have you heard? Zhengkun took the Li family to live in his home, and Mrs. Zeng took her children back to the Zeng family the next day."
In the Yixiang Hall, after greeting Mrs. Shi, everyone was sitting together chatting. Mrs. Shi Wu smiled and shared the news she had just learned.
Mrs. Shi Lao, Mrs. Shi Da, and Mrs. Shi Qi all looked surprised and looked at Jin Yue'e.
Seeing everyone looking at her, Jin Yue'e quickly said: "I don't know about this."
Mrs. Shi withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyelids and said, "Don't mind other people's housework."
Mrs. Shi Wu felt that the Fourth Fang was responsible for this, but she did not dare to say it in front of the old lady. When she left Yixiang Hall, she pulled Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Shi Qi murmured.
"Sister-in-law, seventh brother and sister, this Li family has only been in the capital for two or three months. Even if you want to offend people, there are limits. Why can't you live in the outer city anymore?"
Mrs. Shi looked askance at Mrs. Shi Wu: "Fifth brother and sister, what do you want to say?"
Mrs. Shiwu whispered: "Tell me, could it be..." pointing in the direction of Yiguiyuan, "did it?"
Mrs. Shi Qi smiled and said, "If Fifth Sister-in-law wants to know, why not ask directly?"
Mrs. Shi Wu choked: "How can I ask this?"
Mrs. Shi Da was speechless: "Then we don't know either." After saying that, she said something to Mrs. Shi Qi and left quickly.
Returning to Yimingtang, seeing that Mr. Shi was still at home, Mrs. Shi repeated what Mrs. Shi Wu had said: "Sir, do you think this was done by the fourth brother's family?"
Master Shi shook his head: "No."
Hearing such a firm answer, Mrs. Shi was surprised: "How do you know this?"
Mr. Shi had a headache on his face: "Zhengkun came to see me before. He also thought it was the fourth child who did it, and he begged me to make peace with it."
"I went to see Lao Si that day, and Lao Si told me personally that he hated the Li family, but it was indeed not him who did this."
"The fourth child is someone who dares to do something. If he says it's not the case, then it's definitely not the case."
Mrs. Shi also agreed with this and was silent for a moment: "If it's not the Fourth Brother, then could it be the Five Langs?"
Mr. Shi shook his head again: "No, Wulang and Jiulang are on duty in the palace every day. When they get off their errands, they go back to the uncle's house. These concierges all know about it and they don't have time to trouble the Li family."
Mrs. Shi added: "Aren't there also Sisters Yin and Xin?"
Mr. Shi laughed directly when he heard this: "Madam, the more you talk, the more outrageous you are. Sister Yin and Sister Xin are two girls who can open a shop with great effort."
"Do you know how much effort it takes to force the Li family to live in another city? They don't have the ability!"
Mrs. Shi looked at her husband who didn't take it seriously, and she also had some self-doubt.
After all, Zhengkun was a Hanlin bachelor, and he relied on the Zeng family. Under such circumstances, he could not find a house to house his family. This was indeed a big deal.
Sister Xin and her children shouldn't be able to do it.
Mrs. Shi thought for a while and asked: "Then who is dealing with the Li family?"
Mr. Shi chuckled and sighed, "Who knows." After a pause, "The Zeng family's daughter is pregnant, and the situation in the Zeng family is rising. It's not like no one is jealous."
Mrs. Shi nodded clearly, thought for a moment and said: "Before, the fourth brother put the Li family in prison, Zhengkun came to the house, and his father and mother did not come forward. In the future, Zhengkun will have another fight with the fourth brother because of the Li family.
If there is a conflict, it is best for me not to get involved."
Master Shi nodded: "You think I want to get involved."
The fourth brother is a biological brother who is somewhat related by blood. Zhengkun has lived with them for many years since he was a child and has some kind of relationship. Being caught between these two people really gives him a headache.
Mrs. Shi Da: "Master, please stay away from me in the future. Let them resolve the matter of fourth brother and Zhengkun by themselves. We must learn from our father and mother in this regard."
...
Send the Li family to Li Zhengkun and let Li Zhengkun restrain them and solve the family's troubles
Shi Fuxin began to deal with her own affairs with peace of mind.
She found that time was running out.
No way, there are too many things to deal with.
The first is the management of Hongyanxiao. Fortunately, Fuyin sometimes helps her and can save her a lot of time.
Now that there are ten branches in the capital, it is not suitable to open any more. Therefore, she wants to penetrate into other provinces and strive to open a Hongyanxiao branch in every provincial capital of Dachu.
The second is the business development of Shennongtang.
Master Xiang has successfully taken over the island and pasture from the Meng and Yang families. According to the plan brought by Ximen Fengxiao, medicinal materials have been planted on the island and pasture.
With the two medicinal material supply bases on the island and the ranch, she will start to open a Shennongtang branch in the northern Xinjiang region.
In addition, the Liaodong region is also about to start planning.
The northern part of Da Chu includes the northwest region under the jurisdiction of the Western Region Protectorate, the northern Xinjiang region centered on Huaiyuan, and the Liaodong region.
These places are on the border with other countries and are the areas with the most frequent wars.
In any war, casualties are inevitable, and she wanted the Shennongtang branch to cover these areas.
Third, Saihua Tuoju still needs to treat some patients from time to time.
As her fame spreads, more and more patients with difficult and complicated diseases come to her door. Now she is no longer short of money, so she charges a variety of consultation fees.
Those who are rich and powerful owe her a favor; those who have no money, it depends on their actual situation.
In this way, I also accumulated a lot of connections.
Fourth, she also wanted to build Shennongtang Women's Medical College.
The establishment of a college may attract the attention of the imperial court, but it is difficult to implement at this stage. Now Xue Quan can only secretly train some apprentices who are willing to study medicine.
Because Saihua Tuo's fame spread, many doctors wanted to come and exchange medical skills with her. She selected a few with good medical ethics and told them some medical skills that were beyond this era.
Of course, this is conditional. The condition is that they have to go to Xue Quan and help her train medical apprentices for free for five years.
Now Xue Quan already has many apprentices who have mastered basic medical knowledge, and the opening of the Huaiyuan Shennongtang branch can be used just in time.
These are all things Shi Fuxin wants to do and want to do, because she still has to go to the National Women's Prison to attend classes, so there is not enough time.
"Why are you frowning? What are you thinking about?"
Shi Fuyin came to see Shi Fuxin. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Shi Fuxin frowning in deep thought.
When Shi Fuxin saw her sister, she smiled and handed her the plan she had just drawn: "Sister, look, my business map has begun to take shape."
On the planning map, there is a simplified map of Dachu, with two eye-catching marks on the map.
"The green mark represents the Shennongtang branch, and the red mark represents the Hongyanxiao branch." Worried that Shi Fuyin wouldn't understand, Shi Fuxin explained it thoughtfully.
At this moment, there are twenty-six green markers on the north side of the map.
According to Shi Fuxin's plan, the Western Region Protectorate opened nine Shennongtang branches, eight in Huaiyuan and nine in Liaodong, covering the entire northern border area.
The red cousins are found in all provincial capitals in Dachu, and are more densely populated in Jiangnan and coastal areas.
Shi Fuyin understood the picture. Because she understood it, she was speechless and shocked. The light piece of paper in her hand suddenly became extremely heavy.
My sister is a bit ambitious!
Shi Fuyin swallowed: "Sister Xin, I definitely support you, but can you handle such a big stall?"
Shi Fuxin smiled confidently: "I think I can." After a pause, "This is just my first small goal, the first version of the business map."
Shi Fuyin stared: "Do you have a bigger territory?"
Shi Fuxin nodded: "Of course, I haven't marked Shennongtang Women's Medical College yet. Then, when Shennongtang blooms all over the north, the markets in the south will also follow."
"I want Shennong Hall to be opened all over Chu. Wherever there is a Shennong Hall, we must open it.
Shennongtang Women’s Medical College.”
Listening to her sister's thoughts, Shi Fuyin didn't know what to say.
Having a sister like this is so stressful!
...
The stores provided by the National Women's Prison to business class students are only free for one year. After one year, they have to pay the fee.
In the blink of an eye, the one-year deadline is up.
According to previous years' experience, students were in arrears with fees, but this time, the students took the initiative to hand over the fees before the masters went to collect them, which really surprised the masters.
Also, this class of students is really full of talents.
Except for noble ladies like Dongfang Yunshang who have family backgrounds and backstage support, the shops they open may be a bit watery, but most of the students have really shown their super high business talents.
Needless to say, Hongyanxiao's business is booming. Nowadays, women in the capital will be ridiculed if they have not used Hongyanxiao's products.
There is also the building block shop opened by Hu Xinrui, who can play new tricks by pushing wood.
The most indispensable thing in the capital is rich dudes. It is said that there was a second-generation ancestor who stopped going out and having fun because he got into playing with building blocks. He spent several months building a three-meter-long ship using wooden planks.
A long, two-story wooden boat.
Today, what the second-generation ancestor is most proud of is inviting friends to his home to participate in the wooden boats he made by himself.
Not only the second generation ancestor likes it, but adults and children also like it. Its earning power is no worse than that of Hongyanxiao.
Next is the Shuikan flower shop opened by Du Zixuan. Growing flowers in the water is also very popular among literati. Those who have no shortage of money at home are willing to buy some and display them at home.
There is also the Weaver Girl's Workshop in Zhuoyi Miankai. Because the silk and satin sold do not fade and fade, it attracts merchants from all over the country to rush for it.
If the customers of other students are ordinary people who sell in bulk, then Zhuo Yimian's customers are wholesale merchants, and his level of profitability ranks among the top three among this class of students.
Chu Qian had been following up on the situation of the business school students, and he reported it to the emperor truthfully.
After the emperor saw it, he looked a little sighing: "Shi Fuxin, Zhuo Yimian, the Wuchang House and the Rongchang House are about to fall into ruin. Unexpectedly, both families have good heirs."
Chu Qian smiled and said: "Rongchang's Mansion is not as good as Wuchang's Mansion. Wuchang Bo's Mansion still has promising men, but Rongchang's Mansion only has Zhuo Yimian, which is pretty good."
The emperor nodded, no matter how successful a woman is, she must marry, and it is up to a man to establish a strong family.
The emperor looked at the taxes paid by the students of the business school again and raised his eyebrows: "The taxes paid by the students of the business school are actually equivalent to the fiscal taxes of a medium-sized county!"
Chu Qian immediately smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this is the great thing about doing business. Not only can you make money, but you can also make people's lives richer and more convenient."
"One tael of silver was used by the people to buy Hongyanxiao's rouge and gouache. Hongyanxiao then used the money to find merchants to buy spices and other raw materials. Then the merchants went to the people who produced spices to buy them. After a circle, everyone took what they needed.
, I got everything I wanted.”
"The more money circulates, the richer the country is, and the better the court can manage and implement decrees."
The emperor nodded: "That's the truth. No wonder my father and the others didn't cancel the business school." He looked at the ladies on the list and smiled.
"Queen Wende has said many times in public that women can hold up half the sky. From now on, you can show me the business performance of each class of students in the business school. I want to see how Queen Wende has the confidence to say this.
Say something like this."
Chu Qian nodded in agreement, and when he saw that the emperor was about to start reviewing the memorial, he bowed and left.
...
The emperor is concerned about the operation of the business class, and the students themselves are also very concerned about it, and there is still some kind of rivalry.
To judge whether a store is operating well or not, the tax figures are the best proof.
Hongyanxiao, which paid the most taxes, ranked first; Weaver Girl's Square, ranked second; and Building Blocks Square, ranked third.
Regarding this ranking, Dongfang Yunshang and other noble ladies are definitely not convinced, but there is nothing they can do if they are not convinced.
If you are not as skilled as others, you have to admit defeat.
"Fuxin, congratulations on becoming the best business student in our class."
Shi Fuxin was about to leave with the tax payment list when Zhuo Yimian suddenly came over.
"Congratulations to you too, our whole family likes the fabrics from Weaver Girl's Workshop." After a pause, Shi Fuxin looked at Zhuo Yimian with a smile, "You are great at being able to dye fabrics that don't fade."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing that Shi Fuxin said it sincerely, Zhuo Yimian smiled and said thank you.
In fact, it wasn't that she was great, she just saw in an ancestor's handbook how to deal with it so that the fabric wouldn't fade, so she just did it.
Because of the fame of Zhinvfang, the Rongchang residence is now remembered by everyone again. Although the powerful nobles still ignore them, the situation of the residence is much better than before.
The situation in Wuchang's Mansion was similar to that of Rongchang's Mansion. She and Shi Fuxin, who were in the same situation, should be able to talk about it, so they started to become good friends.
When Shi Fuxin saw Zhuo Yimian standing still, she immediately said, "I still have things to do, so I'll leave first."
She received a patient the day before yesterday and now she is going to Anyefang for treatment.
Seeing Shi Fuxin walking in a hurry, Zhuo Yimian also started to pack her things and prepare to go home. At this time, Dongfang Yunshang came over and wanted to ask her to go shopping.
In the past, she would have readily agreed, but now, she declined directly.
Years of cold treatment made her realize that when meeting people with different statuses, she was bound to stay low and do small things to please others when she was in a low position. Now that she could fight for a place in the uncle's house with her own abilities, she didn't want to embarrass herself so much anymore.
...
Anyefang, Sihai Gambling Place.
In the backyard of the gambling house, Chu Qian gave Chu Yao a business school tax list.
"The sixth girl from the Shi family you know is really quite capable. I did some preliminary calculations and found that the taxes she will pay next year will be less than the county's fiscal revenue."
Chu Yao looked unbelieving: "Is it that exaggerated?"
Chu Qian immediately took out a pen and counted it for him: "This is the tax for the first year of Hongyanxiao. You know, this is for one store. Now there are ten Hongyanxiao branches in the capital, and the business of each one is booming.
Unexpectedly, the tax in the second year will be ten times or even more than this year. See for yourself if you can offset the county's fiscal tax?"
Looking at the numbers calculated by Chu Qian, Chu Yao stopped talking.
He admitted that Pomegranate had some abilities.
Chu Yao looked at the other people on the list: "The others seem to be pretty good too."
Speaking of this, Chu Qian became interested: "It's really strange. The National Women's Supervisory Business School has not produced a business genius for many years. I didn't expect so many business geniuses to appear this time. I was shocked.
Already."
"Before this, I also thought that women were definitely not good at doing business and were definitely not as good as men. But now, I really don't dare to say this."
