Seeing that the wet nurse looked like she wished she didn't appear, Huo Xi quickly comforted her.
"Nanny, don't be afraid. Stay in Songjiang with peace of mind. That group of people can't find Songjiang yet. Don't worry about me."
"Now that the maritime ban has been lifted, everyone is getting involved in maritime trade. Since I have opened a business, I also want to get a share of it, firstly to make money, and secondly, I can take advantage of the opportunity of checking the shop to visit the nanny often. When I make money
Once we have the money, we will open a big weaving workshop in Songjiang and let the nanny and nanny manage it. From now on, we can do it ourselves without having to go to the weaving workshop to see other people's opinions."
The nanny nodded with tears in her eyes and held her tight.
When Huo Xi left the small courtyard, the wet nurse took her one way and another, with tears on her face, and she wiped them away again and again.
Mother Ma comforted her: "Don't be sad. There will be plenty of opportunities to meet each other in the future. In a few years, the situation will calm down, and she will pick you up, and you will be able to live together."
Mrs. Zhou looked at her and made various gestures.
"Why should I follow? She doesn't need me yet. Let's wait in a few years. When she is older, we will go to her and I will help her then."
Mrs. Zhou pulled her and nodded repeatedly.
Mother Ma sighed and clapped her hand: "Don't think so much. I see that this child has a plan in mind. You should take care of yourself first. She has already said that she will provide for you and me in the future."
, can I still not help her? But now she is still young and doesn’t need me around yet.”
Before leaving, Huo Xi said goodbye to Nok and Gong Ziyi. She left Nok the address of her residence and shop in the capital.
I got a lot of gifts from them both.
Gong Ziyi was very wealthy and took care of everyone in the Huo family, and everyone got a gift from him. Huo Nian got a few sets of gadgets from him, couldn't put them down, and his favorability for him skyrocketed.
When I left, I held him reluctantly.
"Look at your brother, he is cuter than you. Look at you again, you look like you wish I could leave quickly, tsk tsk. How about I just marry your brother? Being a brother with a conscience like yours will only make you angry.
It hurts my liver."
"As long as you don't mind my brother's young age, I won't mind."
"Look at it, I'll tell you that you are a little heartless."
Huo Xi couldn't see the glib look on his face and dismissed him: "You should go back quickly and bring the money back early so that your family will be happy and you will be put to good use. Then we can set off to the northwest."
"It's a long road to the northwest, and there are many bandits and bandits. You really wish I could leave as soon as possible."
"You don't have to go. I just want you to eat and die at home. You don't need money, and you don't have to worry about food and drink. Just send the steward below and go to the northwest in person."
"Hey, dear brother, you don't understand. If you want to have a say in the clan and be the head of the family, how can you still just sit at home and have a leisurely meal?"
Huo Xi glanced at him and sighed, it was not easy either.
"Then you should be more careful. I hope you have a smooth journey and come to the capital as soon as possible so that I can greet you."
"This is like what a good brother would say."
The two sides said goodbye at the pier.
Huo Erhuai and Yang Fu rowed the oars and quickly rowed out of the waters of Songjiang Prefecture.
As soon as the ship left the dock, Huo Xi and Yang Fu went to the cabin to take stock.
This time she brought out 2,000 taels and spent all of it. She also partnered with Mu Yan to start a spice business worth 10,000 taels.
I thought it would be a big business this time after collecting several ships of goods, but I didn't expect it was nothing compared to spices. If the business of ten thousand taels is discounted, what will I have to pay back to others?
"Xi'er, don't worry, these ten thousand taels are a partnership business, and we didn't borrow them. If we lose money, it's not our family's fault." Yang Fu comforted her.
"That's true, but if we lose money or something happens, we have to pay back the money we took from others. Thirty percent is a lot."
"Don't worry, the spice business is booming. If we transport it to the north, merchants will just rush for it."
"I hope so. This business is too big, and I'm a little worried. I don't know if Shopkeeper Shen has arranged for proper escorts for this batch of spices. If something happens on the way, it will really be in vain."
"Don't worry, Shopkeeper Shen is smart and has a good eye for people. You also mentioned the severity in your letter, so he will be cautious."
Huo Xi nodded and talked about Huai'an again.
"Gong Ziyi said he would look after the shop in Huai'an for us. Since he has agreed, the shop in Huai'an is stable. Huai'an gathers ships traveling from north to south, and now that the Department of Water Affairs is located in Huai'an, there will be no worries about business in Huai'an in the future. After this batch of goods is sold, if we have money, we will expand the store in Huai'an."
"Okay. With the Gong family's support, we can expand our business. But, Xi'er, don't you want to buy a field to grow mulberry trees?"
Huo Xi sighed: "Yes, I want to buy a field and a shop, but we don't have much money. We have to wait until this batch of goods is sold before we can have money."
"It's okay, just take your time. We've been using it for a few years, and the situation we have now is pretty good."
"Yeah." Huo Xi nodded and stopped talking.
It has been almost five years. She and Nian'er have grown up, and Zhang Jie, the son of Wu, has also grown up. She cannot take things slowly.
That time when I saw him at the Gongyuan, he was called "Little Marquis" and was surrounded by people. Once Zhang Jie was awarded the title of Crown Prince, she would have to do even more difficult things.
Just as he was thinking about it, Huo Nian came over with a set of jade ornaments in his arms: "Sister, I want to hear you tell the story of the twelve zodiac animals."
"Didn't I tell you this before?"
"I've told you before, but now I have the twelve zodiac jade ornaments given by Brother Gong. Sister, please tell me again so that I can get it right and remember it better in the future."
Huo Xi smiled and looked at the jade ornaments in the box.
Each of the twelve zodiac jade ornaments is only half the size of Nian'er's palm, a small ball, cute and cute, and can be placed in the palm of your hand to play with.
Huo Nian couldn't put it down. He was so proud of them that he would hold them and enjoy them all the time, even refusing to catch fish.
"Sister, does that brother Gong have bad eyesight? He didn't even realize that my sister is a woman, but he calls me a good brother and a good brother. When I get back to Beijing, I will ask the powerful doctor if there is such a cure. It's better to give him some medicine for eye diseases."
Yang Fu couldn't help laughing, hugged him and sat in front of him.
Huo Xi went to poke his head, but he turned his head and dodged it.
Huo Xi glared at the proud-looking boy: "You just got so many good things from Brother Gong, and you are saying behind his back that he has bad eyesight. He should be sad if he hears that."
"That's not a bad thing. Then, I won't say it anymore. I will also give him a gift when he comes to the capital next time."
"Well, you have to reciprocate politely. You can't just reach out and receive other people's things without thinking about repaying them."
"Well, sister, Nian'er has remembered it."
Huo Xi then told him the story of the twelve zodiac animals, and he listened with great interest.
