The Zheng family has never implemented the rule of saying nothing when eating and saying nothing when sleeping. After Zheng Zheng clearly reported everything to Jintong, Jintong thought for a moment and then went off topic: "Sister Zhan, wheat millet and millet."
Do you know what the grades of beans and rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, and various grain condiments are, and how much they cost?"
Zheng Zhan was confused. She glanced at his father quietly. Zheng Qiyan was doing some cooking and didn't respond. So Zheng Zhan could only reply in a low voice: "Mother, my daughter doesn't know."
Jintong: "I'll give you five days to check everything one by one. Show me the list."
Zheng Zheng was full of grievances but did not dare to object. He only said meekly: "Yes, mother."
After the meal, Zheng Zhan had indigestion. After the meal, Zheng Zhan said goodbye to his parents with some dejection. Looking at Zheng Zhan's aggrieved and a little broken back, Zheng Qiyan couldn't help but ask Jintong: "Sister Zhan is only ten years old now.
Are you being too harsh on her?"
Jintong rolled her eyes at him: "Since you came back in triumph, Zheng Zhan has been a wonderful person. Although she is only ten years old, she has been visited by no less than ten families."
"It's okay not to want these people who follow the trend of others."
Jintong rolled his eyes at him again: "That's natural! But the dowry still needs to be prepared! I have helped Sister Zhan prepare four dowry shops for food, clothing, housing and transportation. People depend on food. Food is their first necessity, a grain and oil shop, dry goods from the north and south, and a clothing shop.
, a rouge and gouache shop, as long as you run it step by step, you can't easily lose money. But if you want to earn more, you have to put more effort into it."
"My husband has prepared several Zhuangzi and plans to make a dowry for Sister Zhan. Madam, if you have some free time, can you help me with the palm of my hand?"
"You plan to make dowries for Zheng Zhan and several Zhuangzi, but you should also know that Zhuangzi only harvests twice a year at most, and the shop has a surplus every month. Although the shop is not easy to take care of, Zhuangzi does not
It’s easy to take care of. If the year is good, how to sell Zhuangzi’s crops for maximum profit? If the year is bad, how to appease the slaves of Zhuangzi?”
Zheng Qiyan patted his right leg with his right hand. What Jintong said made perfect sense. He was planning to find a husband from a scholarly family for Zheng Qiyan and live a stable life. Scholars are often poor, while martial arts men are often rich. If Zheng Qiyan
If you take care of your dowry yourself and have a fixed monthly income, everything will be easier.
"Madam, thank you for your trouble. Please tell Sister Zhan properly and she will know your good intentions."
Jintong rubbed his eyes and rolled them until they were sore: "Your daughter eats hard things but not soft things. I had to hit her hard with a big stick a few times and give her some candy before she thought the candy was sweet.
I also know that one bite cannot make you fat. We will observe for two or three years and decide on Zheng Zhan’s marriage. It will not be too late to get married when Zheng Zhan is seventeen or eighteen years old. So in the next few years, I will slowly teach Zheng Zhan
How to take care of the four shops, how to manage Zhuangzi well, and then help her choose a group of capable and loyal subordinates. When she is old enough, let her try to manage it herself for two years. When she gets married, she won't be in a hurry."
Zheng Qiyan was speechless. After thinking about it carefully, Zheng Zhan really had such a bad temper. He felt guilty for a while and felt ashamed.
Shen Miaolian took Zheng Qi into his mother's womb since he was born. In the first two or three years, Zheng Qiyan was busy quelling the "King Ao Rebellion", so how could he have time to pay attention to it?
Later, Zheng Zhan grew older, and Zheng Qiyan was fighting in the south and north. He rarely had any free time, and he was busy looking for a mistress for the Pingning Marquis Mansion, and he had no time to care about Zheng Zhan.
When he found out that Zheng Zhan had been raised crookedly by Shen Miaolian and was sent to the north of the Great Wall, he wanted to correct her, but he also caught up with the turmoil in southern Xinjiang. In addition, Jin Tong was extremely unruly and willful. He couldn't bear it, so he had to solve the problem in southern Xinjiang first. The matter of education was put on hold again.
Now that he is really free, Zheng Qiyan was pleasantly surprised to find that Zheng Tong went to Zuo's Girls' School for more than a year and the results were remarkable. Although Jintong was unruly, he was really capable. Jintong managed the huge family business. He was very satisfied with everything in order, so he let Jintong arrange everything in the house, while he put all his energy on King Jin's side to plan for the future.
He didn't dare to argue with Jintong, and he waited patiently for Jintong's lunch break. He also had an unspeakable matter to Jintong. It is estimated that once this matter was revealed, Jintong would probably take a real big stick. Knock him hard.
The "endless" poison is extremely overbearing. Zheng Qiyan plays a seriously injured person who has not fully recovered from the poison. In order not to arouse the suspicion of the Holy Lord, he and Jintong cannot have children for the time being. However, as a It is impossible for an energetic warrior to regard Jintong as a beauty with withered bones.
So, he planned to lie low and ask Jintong to agree not to have children for the time being, and wait for a year or two before talking about it. Unexpectedly, Jintong actually agreed very much with this matter and agreed happily. Zheng Qiyan was depressed!
Five days later, Zheng Zhan anxiously handed Jintong three sheets with roughly written details on the prices of wheat, millet, millet, beans and rice. Jintong took the items and looked at them carefully, making Zheng Zhan more and more nervous.
As expected, after reading the three pictures, Jintong turned away with disgusted eyes: "Shengshengtong, the largest grain and oil store in Shangjing, is over there in Pingbodu. Compare it to Wanfenglong and Taiping, which are larger grain and oil stores. Okay, send a few waves of servants to inquire by category, and find out clearly what the price differences are."
Jintong pushed the three pieces of paper back to Zheng Zhan. Zheng Zhan took them back with a sad face and lowered his head to go back.
Next, five days after five days, five days too many.
Poor Zheng Tong, under Jin Tong's high-pressure methods, his knowledge expanded at the speed of light, and his life was so fulfilling that he didn't even have time to poke fun at Jin Tong's villain secretly.
Seeing this, even Aunt Cai felt a little uneasy, fearing that Zheng Qiyan would blame Jintong for not being as generous as a matron and treating the concubine harshly. She persuaded Jintong in private: "Madam, haste makes waste, and the eldest lady is already She is not a very smart person, and she has been raised blindly by Aunt Shen for many years. If you are forcing her so hard now, I am afraid it will be counterproductive and inappropriate. "
"Aunt Cai, even if Zheng Zhan feels so wronged in his heart, how dare he do anything?"
"Madam, the eldest lady doesn't dare to do anything, but isn't Master Qi back? After all, the eldest lady is his only daughter~~"
"Aunt Cai, don't worry. I've said hello to Zheng Qiyan, and he agrees. Zheng Zhan, if you don't press harder, she won't know how to make progress. After some time, take her to the four rooms When I visited the store, she was overjoyed and grateful."
Aunt Cai couldn't help but rolled her eyes like Jin Tong: "I'm afraid that all your hard work will be in vain. The eldest lady, the old slave, looked at me in private. Her eyelids are a bit shallow and she is quite selfish."
"The human heart is inherently insatiable and has insatiable desires. Human nature, unless absolutely necessary, you can't tell how evil it can be or whether it still has good intentions. I can't comment on Zheng Zhan's nature. Generally speaking, it's not bad. Just make a mistake. But now she is afraid of me, which is a good thing for me. At least, she doesn't dare to have any thoughts easily. "
Zheng Zheng's horizons have broadened a bit during her more than a year at Zuo's Girls' School. She knew in her heart that it was somewhat embarrassing to be the eldest daughter of a concubine, and she was not like her brother from the same mother who had the fortune to adopt three children.
Bo became the eldest son and inherited the family business.
She was a young girl. Her biological mother died young, so her aunt took her birth mother's name to raise her since she was a child. Her aunt plotted against Jintong but failed and was imprisoned in the family temple. No matter what Jintong said, she would not be taken away.
She was raised as a legitimate daughter.
Moreover, Jintong has a resolute and resolute character, and if she disagrees with someone, she might be beaten to death if she dares to directly hit him with a cane. She really doesn't dare to do anything to Jintong, and at most she will just slander her quietly.
In addition, her father now loves Jintong very much and obeys her in everything. Jintong is very important in Pingninghou Mansion, he must do what he orders, and he is respected by everyone outside.
Zheng Zheng knew in her heart that her life-long affairs were definitely in Jintong's hands. If a woman could marry a good family and successfully give birth to a legitimate son, she would basically have no major worries in her life. If Jintong could find her a home full of flowers and flowers
She is a playboy, and she will probably be reunited with her biological mother in just a few years.
Zheng Zheng had a clear understanding of some aspects. There must be some reason behind Jintong's efforts to make things difficult for her. Since Jintong was willing to go to all the trouble to send her to the famous Zuo's Girls' School in Beijing, he was generous and kind to her.
Due to her reputation, some things should not be done too much to be criticized. So even though Jintong gave her a lot of extra miscellaneous "homework", she obediently did her best to complete them all.
