Ming Zuo

Chapter 1093
head of the house.

Those two short words made Jin Qiurong both apprehensive and happy.

North Korea, like Xia, pursues the custom that men dominate outside and women dominate inside.

When Jin Qiurong was in her boudoir, she often saw how her mother managed the housework.

After marrying Zuo Yong, she was also mentally prepared.

I just never thought that this day would come so soon.

"Thank you, Princess, for your kindness. It's just that I'm new here, so I'm afraid that there will be some omissions, and I'll let down the trust of Princess Concubine and you."

Jin Qiurong still has the necessary humility, and there is also some truth in it.

Xu Ruolin corrected her address first.

"We are different in our own home from the outside. What are we called concubine or concubine for no reason, and we are not afraid of birth? From now on, just call me sister-in-law."

Jin Qiurong was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the rules in Prince Xia's mansion were so loose.

You can call Xu Ruolin sister-in-law, which shows that the relationship within the Zuo family is very close.

This immediately dissipated a lot of her cautiousness.

As for her worries, Xu Ruolin was well prepared.

"Although you don't understand things here, it doesn't matter much. As long as you have a capable helper, you will be familiar with it in a short time."

Xu Ruolin waved towards the distance.

"Chen Xin, come here."

A young woman in military uniform stepped forward and saluted Xu Ruolin and Jin Qiurong.

"This is Chen Xin from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and she will be your secretary from now on. If you don't understand anything, just ask her."

Jin Qiurong looked at Chen Xin curiously.

I saw this girl with short ear-length hair and a neat military uniform, very dashing and capable.

However, Jin Qiurong was somewhat puzzled by such an arrangement.

"Little sister brought a lot of people here from home, and I guess she should be able to handle the housework."

She is still thinking of a traditional family.

To make decisions and manage housework, it is natural to use familiar servants, so that you can rest assured.

Xu Ruolin, the eldest sister-in-law, is very competent and explained to her tirelessly.

"People you brought over from your mother's house will naturally have no problem doing housework. But when it comes to finance, management, and security issues, you must have professionals to guide you. That's what Chen Xin does."

Of course, Jin Qiurong knows whether a family is well-managed, and financial problems are the first to bear the brunt.

But she also knows about Zuo Yong's situation, and it seems that it is not too difficult to take care of it based on the salary she receives.

However, Xu Ruolin's next actions made her understand how complicated it is to manage such a family's financial problems.

Xu Ruolin took out a lot of documents and handed them to her one by one.

"Originally, Lao Qi lived in the mansion, and all expenditures and expenses were paid by the public account. Now that you have a family and start a business, you must have a foothold in capital. These are the wealth allocated to you by the mansion, so you need to take a careful inventory."

Hearing that it was obtained from the separation of the family, Jin Qiurong quickly became concerned.

This kind of thing will happen in any big family, and it involves a lot, and it is even more related to interests.

It's just that she picked up the document and read it again and again, feeling a little confused.

Xu Ruolin explained to her.

"This is the equity certificate of the Nongken Group. With this, your family can get a dividend from the Nongken Group every year."

Jin Qiurong didn't know what the Nongken Group was.

Jin Qiurong was also at a loss as to what a share certificate was.

But she still understands the word "dividend".

Since income was involved, she quickly put it away.

In addition, other documents are also share certificates.Adding up all these things, there are actually more than a dozen copies.

There were only one document after another, and no cash was seen, which made Jin Qiurong a little uncertain about the division of the Xia Palace.

Could it be that Princess Xia in front of me is too stingy, and she is not willing to give away valuable things?
Just now, when she had some other thoughts, Mrs. Huang who was sitting at the top made a move.

"You young couple are now small in number, but in the future there will be a lot of children and grandchildren. There will be more people eating here. It's okay if the family is not rich. The old lady has nothing to give away. Jinan and Songjiang each have a shop, and the daily business is still decent. I will send it to you."

Jin Qiurong's mind was finally eased by the delivery of two consecutive shop contracts.

"I'm usually only on the march and fighting, and financial management is a real headache. There's nothing to give away. It's just a small gift. My younger siblings can use it for self-defense."

Wang Siyi also gave a gift.

Nothing but a revolver.

Seeing this kind of gift, Jin Qiurong's heart was beating wildly.

Is this kind of thing a woman can touch?
However, this revolver used a lot of gold, silver and jade, which is of great value in itself.

She knew the goods, so she hurriedly thanked Wang Siyi.

"I am an academic, and my pockets are empty. I can't compare with the two concubines. I had to make an abacus with my own hands. In the future, my sister-in-law will manage the house and calculate that the barn will be full."

Zuo Xianmei's gift is an abacus.

It is said to be worthless, but every bead on it is carved with agate, and even the outer frame is made of top-quality huanghuali.

"Lu An is still busy in North Korea, and he won't be back for a while. He asked me to send a congratulatory gift, and please forgive me, my sister-in-law."

Zuo Xianmei gave Lu An's gift to Jin Qiurong again.

"This is a box of watermelon cream. I usually have a cough or something, but eating a little of it is very effective. Lu Daguo made it himself, but it is hard to find."

Hearing that it was a gift from Lu An, who had subdued smallpox, Jin Qiurong immediately became more careful, knowing that such a gift must be extraordinary.

She didn't have time to ask Chen Xin for advice until she got home.

"Miss Chen..."

"Madam can just call me by my name. In the future, I will be responsible for Madam's management and travel. Please rest assured."

Jin Qiurong began to adapt to the new identity.

"Chen Xin, what are these share certificates used for?"

Looking at the documents lined up on the desktop, Chen Xin couldn't help being jealous.

"Madam doesn't know, these are all gold and silver!"

She first picked up the equity certificate of the Nongken Group to explain to Jin Qiurong.

"This agricultural reclamation group is the largest grain producer in the Xia Kingdom. The largest shareholder is the state, accounting for 51% of the shares; the second is the Xia Palace, accounting for 17.2% of the shares. In addition, there are many private shareholders. This Once the general and his wife got married, the Xia Palace donated some shares from it. You see, the data here is 0.73%. With this share, the wife can receive dividends from the Nongken Group in the future."

After a new explanation, Jin Qiurong understood the meaning of percentage.

This made her frown.

"0.73%... How much income can you earn with such a small amount of equity?"

Chen Xin laughed dumbfounded, knowing that Jin Qiurong was thinking wrong.

"The annual profit of the Nongken Group is more than two million taels of silver. Madam can do the math, how much is the dividend?"

When Jin Qiurong saw her smile, he knew something was wrong.Immediately using the method she taught, I calculated it myself.

When the results appeared on the paper, the newlywed young woman suddenly felt the same trembling feeling as last night.

Since she took off the red hijab yesterday and saw her newly married residence, she thought that Zuo Yong's family property was not rich enough.

After all, it is only a small two-story building. Although the decoration is extraordinary, it is extremely comfortable to use.But the size of the entire courtyard is not even as good as her home in North Korea.

She originally thought that from now on, she would manage well and maintain the operation of the whole family.

Now that she saw the results on the paper, she realized how rich this family was under the seemingly ordinary surface.
