If you mind it, it will appear that Bai Xiuzhu is narrow-minded.
Furthermore, when Bai Gui went to Japan to study, he first met Nahoko Satomi, and then met Bai Xiuzhu at the embassy in Japan, so there was no room for anger.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."
"Brother, do you know? I wrote to you last time, about Lao Li and Xiangzi who live in the White House in Yanjing. Lao Li and his grandson are very good at studying. He always praises everyone he meets every day..."
"As for Xiangzi, Xiangzi quit his job at Liu's Automobile Dealership (Renhe Automobile Factory) and worked in our Baizhai these years. His job was stable and he saved money. He opened a new auto dealership with Huniu and lived a prosperous life.
It stands to reason that Xiangzi is already the boss, but he still comes to our white house to pull a car. I privately advised him to quit his job, but he has always refused..."
Liu Baoer rambled on about some changes in Yanjing.
What is talked about the most is the changes in Lao Li and Xiangzi in the White House in Yanjing.
"Xiangzi is smart."
"For him to pull a cart in our mansion is equivalent to joining the power of our Bai family. Not only your brother, but also my brother Xiongqi, anyone in Yanjing will be sold to some extent."
Bai Gui shook his head.
"By the way, Xiangzi opened a car dealership. Did he ever give shares to our family?"
he asked.
Liu Baoer is not experienced in the world and has been growing up in a girls' school. How can he know the world and human nature and the sinister nature of people's hearts?
A seventh-rank official under the prime minister's sect.
Working as a servant in a wealthy family is a job that many people need to compete for. You even have to spend money before you can work as a servant in a wealthy family.
As for dignity, that's why you don't eat minced meat.
"this matter……"
Liu Baoer was speechless.
"Let's find a reason to fire him later. We don't have to accept the shares, but Xiangzi and Huniu have to give them away. They use the family's influence without thinking about getting benefits. There is no such good thing in the world."
When Bai Gui saw Liu Baoer's appearance, he guessed something, frowned and said.
He didn't expect that the honest and honest Xiangzi would look like this after he became popular. Also, he was reluctant to spend money. Even if he knew this truth, when it came time to spend money, he would definitely feel reluctant in every way.
And he has always been easy to talk to. Liu Baoer is the only one in charge of the White House in Yanjing.
Therefore, Xiangzi and Huniu felt comfortable borrowing the power of the Bai family, but refused to spend money to manage their relationship.
Don't look at Bai Gui's cruel words.
An industry like a car dealership is all about personal connections. If you have connections, you can make money on your own, but if you don’t have connections, there will be many people stuck in your way. After all, in this industry, the threshold is not high, so you don’t have to worry about it.
For example, Huniu's father, Liu Siye, was able to run a car dealership because of his status as Paoge, which was given face by people in the world.
For example, Mr. Liu, the car dealer made a thousand silver dollars. This thousand silver dollars must first be paid to Pao Ge's cousin, and then some influence can be managed, such as government patrols and so on. In the end, only less than 30% will fall into his pocket.
, which is three hundred silver dollars.
Seventy percent..., seventy percent belongs to someone else!
Now the car dealership run by Huniu and Xiangzi relies on the power of Bai Gui and the Bai family, but they are unwilling to share the shares with the Bai family... This is just bad behavior.
"Huniu plans to give you the shares..."
"She asked Lao Li to test my tone. I thought, brother, you can't let this incident ruin your reputation, so I didn't express my position clearly."
Liu Baoer's face turned red for a while and he hesitated.
It was her fault that the White House in Yanjing was in charge of her, and it was like this now. At first, she thought that Lao Li, Xiangzi and others were doing well, which was an achievement worthy of bragging, but she did not expect that Xiang He
Under the atmosphere, so many people's petty thoughts and calculations are hidden.
However, what she told Bai Gui was correct. Huniu once asked Lao Li to test her tone, but she thought it was not a good thing to take someone's shares without contributing anything, so she declined vaguely.
After Bai Gui said this, she understood the key.
"Since you are kind-hearted, this matter is easy. You can ask Lao Li. Lao Li is the housekeeper and has a clear heart. If you mention it, Lao Li will know what to do."
Bai Gui thought for a moment and considered his words.
If he leaves, even if Wu Huaixian, Liu Mingda, Zhou Yuan and other classmates take care of him, if his family fails to live up to expectations, the Bai family will be lonely.
I borrowed his memorial hall and charged an entrance fee, but I was so poor that it was a bit miserable to charge an entrance fee.
The car dealership opened by Xiangzi and Huniu is not a big deal, so it would be a good idea to let Liu Baoer handle it and train his sister so that she can be independent in the future.
As for Bai Youde and Aunt Wang, they can still rely on experience to deal with things in the countryside, but if they encounter major events outside the countryside, they will easily be helpless and have no master. It is not for nothing that scholars know the world without going out.
Liu Baoer can be considered a female college student after all.
There are only a few female college students in the country now, maybe a thousand at most, or even less than that.
The future is promising.
"yes, Sir!"
Liu Baoer seemed to have some understanding and nodded.
It was not appropriate for her to talk about this matter. The Bai family was not concerned about the profits of the car dealership. What was important was the stance of Xiangzi and Huniu. If they were not willing to pay even a little profit, then they would have to be ruthless.
As for Huniu having tested her words..., for this kind of thing, if you don't just give in and give in, you should at least tell the host openly.
"In a few days, your sister-in-law and I are going to Yanjing to see Brother Xiongqi. Do you plan to stay at home and go to Yanjing again next year, or do you want to go together?"
Bai Gui talked about another thing.
This kind of thing in the car dealership is just a trivial matter, he doesn't care about it. He just breaks it off casually.
Now he has almost made all arrangements for his funeral.
Only Bai Xiuzhu can "break the world of mortals".
It is impossible not to go to Yanjing.
"I'll go with you, brother."
In the courtyard, Liu Baoer glanced at Aunt Wang coaxing Bai Huaigu, feeling a little disappointed in her heart, and said.
She is just a daughter's family.
Before Bai Huaigu came along, her mother would still have her heart set on her. But after having Bai Huaigu around, even Bai Gui, the mainstay, felt a little "unspeakable", let alone her.
"That's fine."
Bai Gui nodded.
"By the way, Bao'er, do you have a man you like?"
"While eldest brother is still in the country, I will help you propose marriage."
He thought about this and asked.
Men should get married when they are older, and women should get married when they are older.
Liu Baoer is now nineteen years old. Although she is still a student, there are only a handful of unmarried women at this age, and people will gossip about her.
When Bai Gui taught Chinese at Beiman Girls' School, part of the reason why he taught behind the curtain was because many female students in the university department were already married and needed to avoid suspicion.
"I……"
Liu Baoer raised his eyes and glanced at Bai Gui, pursed his lips and said nothing.
"It's okay if you don't say it. If my brother doesn't force you, Aunt Wang and Dad... probably won't put their thoughts on you now. You can fall in love freely on your own."
Bai Gui shook his head and stopped persuading.
He comes from a later generation, and women of this age in later generations basically never get married. Although according to today's social atmosphere, Liu Baoer is an old girl if she doesn't get married, but some secular prejudices are not a big deal to the current Bai family.
matter.
Low status, need to cater to secular prejudices.
With a high status, you may still have worries, but you can already control your own destiny.
