Chapter 1713 Taking over the family property, Lin Jingyuan takes action
Su Mingzhe was originally a playboy, and his body had long been emptied by the young ladies of the brothel.
After traveling for more than a month, although after practicing, my cultivation level has quickly improved to the Nascent Soul stage, my body is still a little weak.
After a little indulgence on their wedding night, Su Mingzhe didn't even remember when he fell asleep, let alone when sisters Pandan and Vanilla went to rest next door.
When Su Mingzhe woke up, he saw Tie Yuxiang drawing circles on his chest with her slender jade fingers.
The iron jade, fragrant white jade little hand was held by the man, and then she realized that the man was awake. She was immediately ashamed and was about to shrink back into bed:
"Ms. sir..."
"lady……"
Su Mingzhe became angry when he saw the woman's shy and beautiful appearance. He didn't care, got on his horse and started galloping.
Poor Tie Yuxiang just passed the personnel check yesterday and suffered a disaster.
When the pandan and vanilla came in to help me get up, the wound that had been healed overnight had opened again.
…
The backyard of Su Mansion.
Su Mingzhe took the bride to kowtow to her parents and serve tea.
When Mother Su saw her daughter-in-law walking through the door with difficulty, she burst into laughter and even couldn't help but want to laugh.
Fortunately, she remembered in time that she was the head mother-in-law and had to maintain her dignity, so she suppressed her smile and set the house rules for her new daughter-in-law.
Su's father was still busy going to the store. He gave his son a few words of admonishment and prepared to let the two of them leave.
Mother Su took out a stack of documents and handed them to Su Mingzhe, with a warm look in her eyes:
"Mingzhe, as the saying goes, you have a family and a business. Now that you have a family, it's time to start a family business! These are your mother's dowry. There are a total of thirty-six shops in Xiangyang, Dengcheng, Gucheng, and your side.
Take it over and take good care of it!"
Su Mingzhe naturally didn't want to take care of any business. If he had that time, he might as well retreat at home and spend time with his beautiful wife.
However, thinking that his mother also had good intentions, Su Mingzhe just hesitated slightly and took the document with both hands:
"My dear, listen to my mother and go check out the store later!"
…
The Su family has been in business for generations and owns nearly a hundred shops in the Jingxiang area.
In the Song Dynasty, although such a person was not powerful enough, he could still be considered a wealthy gentry.
Unfortunately, this is the Yuan Dynasty.
Although the Yuan Dynasty did not suppress commerce, it divided the people under its rule into four classes.
The Su family is the fourth class of people, that is, the lowest class of people.
According to the rules, the fourth class can only do business locally and cannot travel around doing business like the Lin family.
…
Su Mingzhe took the paperwork and went out first to look at the five shops in Xiangyang City.
There is a restaurant, a clothing store, a carriage shop, and two grocery stores.
There were all old guys in the store. Su Mingzhe walked around and became familiar with them.
Shopkeepers in ancient times were different from those in modern society.
Including the shopkeeper, everyone has signed a personal contract and is equivalent to a domestic slave of the Su family.
For these people, Su Mingzhe could just beat them to death for any slanderous accusation.
If their family sues and wins, Su Mingzhe will only have to compensate their family for five sheep.
Therefore, when Su Mingzhe inquired about the details of the store with a majestic expression, everyone responded with caution.
Fortunately, Su Mingzhe is not a mean and ungrateful person. Even if a problem is found, he will just give him a lecture.
Those who perform well will be rewarded without hesitation.
Finally, another 100 yuan red envelope was given to all the guys.
…
More than a month passed in the blink of an eye.
Su Mingzhe had already taken care of each of the thirty-six shops.
Although the business is not booming and has made rapid progress due to a makeover, it has also improved a lot.
This day.
Su Mingzhe accompanied Tie Yuxiang to greet his parents, and heard Su's mother praising her man:
"Sir, although we Mingzhe are not good at imperial examinations, our ability to do business is still better than our ancestors!"
"This is called being better than being inferior!"
Su's father was extremely satisfied with his son's performance. After praising him, he expressed that he would also hand over the management of the Su Mansion's property to his son.
Then more than a month passed.
As Su's father slowly let go, Su Mingzhe has taken over all the Su family's business and started running around in Jingxiang.
…
Winter turns to spring in a blink of an eye.
Emperor Taiding of the Yuan Dynasty died of illness in Shangdu on the eve of Su Mingzhe's wedding, and the temple name was revealed.
Because Emperor Taiding had not chosen a prince, four princes competed for the throne.
After half a year of disputes, Wu Zong's second son finally won the throne, and the reign name was changed to Tianli.
Emperor Tianli did not have many direct troops, and the power in the court was basically controlled by powerful ministers.
Emperor Tianli's experience stimulated the princes of various provinces to take action.
Many princes began to make friends with ministers in the court, hoping that they could become the next lucky one and reach the top to become the Nine-Five Supreme.
Prince Ning, whose fiefdom was in the Jingxiang area, was considered the most active one.
…
This day is a scorching summer day.
Su Mingzhe was enjoying the cool air on the rockery at home with his pregnant Tie Yuxiang. Suddenly, he heard the butler Jin Fu come to report that the carriage and horse racing business had been closed down by the government. He couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth:
"When did this happen?"
"That's this morning."
Butler Jin Fu looked slightly panicked and said:
"Young Master, the government officials said that our horse and carriage team carried prohibited items and collected stolen goods, and they asked us to pay a fine of one thousand taels of silver..."
"Don't worry, it's not that troublesome!"
Su Mingzhe knew long ago that this was the trouble caused by his good friend Lin Jingyuan.
Even when Lin Jingyuan was formulating the plan, Su Mingzhe was using his spiritual consciousness to hear every word of the plan discussed between him and the steward of Prince Ning's Mansion.
"In this case, you go to the accountant to pay five thousand taels of silver and give it to Butler Liu of Prince Ning's palace. He used to look after our Su family. Ask him for his opinion on whether to pay the fine."
Su Mingzhe gave the order. Although the housekeeper Jin Fu was surprised as to why he had to spend so much extra money, he still hurriedly went to do it.
In the past six months, Su Mingzhe has been in charge of the Su family store. After several rectifications, the income in the accounts has changed significantly.
Originally, the monthly gross profit of Sufu's shop was 6,000 taels, but now, it has risen to more than 160 million.
This is rolling and doubled.
Therefore, everyone in the Su family admired the young master Su Mingzhe greatly.
Three days later.
The butler Jin Fu reported back with a sad face:
"Master, Butler Liu took the money, but didn't do anything for it. Our silk shop was closed down again!"
"It doesn't matter. You can go to the accounting office to get five thousand taels of silver and continue looking for Butler Liu!"
Su Mingzhe said, without waiting for the butler to agree, he gave instructions:
"Butler Liu will definitely agree to it in front of you, but he will definitely not do anything. You don't have to worry. From now on, you will wander around the door of Prince Ning's Mansion waiting for news every day. Remember, when waiting, your expression should be more nervous. If there is anything
If you meet Lin Jingyuan when he appears, ask him for help in finding out the news..."
"What the young master means is..."
The butler Jin Fu's expression suddenly changed.
Being able to work as a housekeeper in the Su Mansion, he was certainly not stupid. After hearing what Su Mingzhe said, he immediately understood that the investigation of his own business was probably related to Lin Jingyuan.
He saw that his young master was calm and composed, and he immediately understood that everything was under his control, which made him feel relieved.
After the housekeeper left, Su Mingzhe sighed:
"Brother Lin, Brother Lin, God is kind to you, and I want to save some blessings for my child so that you can live a few more days. But in the end, you have to die, so you can't blame me!"
