The peasant girl is not strong

Chapter 390 The Effect of Observation

The old butler had quietly written a letter last night, wrote some code words on it, and sent a letter with a guard instead of a post station.

There is no way to do this, their family letters have been robbed many times.

But he didn't kill the guard who delivered the letter, he just robbed the letter.

Both the old housekeeper and the master felt that it might be the person above or the powerful who didn't trust them!
Don't worry if they wrote letters in the border town and here, will they have other intentions!
Ye Shiqi didn't know that ever since they entered the capital and bought a house, they were in danger!

Not only the person above paid attention to their family, but also other people paid attention to them, and an old acquaintance paid attention to her.

Being unfamiliar with her place of life, she was still kept in the dark, and she also kept her family in the dark.

Ye Shiqi was in the carriage, and there were two servant girls in her carriage, one fanned the young lady, and the other waited for the young lady to drink water and other miscellaneous things.

Ye Shiqi was not idle during this time either, she took the accounts of the four shops in her hand and watched them carefully.

She took a look at the accounts, and found that Mr. Zhao's shop can still make money, which is beneficial to She.

The store that the old housekeeper managed before did not lose money or make a lot of money. The main focus was on stability. She was wondering why the old housekeeper did this. It must be because the master was not around and could not participate in the competition.

Ye Shiqi will have competition until there is no line of business, especially in the same street, if you do business in the same line, there will definitely be someone deliberately disrupting the business.

As for the reason why the shop sells grain and oil in such a busy area, she has to ask the housekeeper, privately at night.

Where did the tea come from? You also need to ask.

Ye Shiqi felt that the people around him needed to be cultivated, so she sat beside him with two maids, fanning in one hand and flipping through the ledger with the other.

The maids arranged by the housekeeper around her have all been specially trained, and everyone can read and write when playing second-class maids.

Of course, the one who is pursuing ability is the big maid, who can be by the master's side, whether it is a young lady, a young son or a wife, they are all right-hand assistants.

All these years, the master has been in the border town, the subordinates here in the capital, and their children have all been trained to be useful people.

Some orphans or children bought from childhood will also be taken in and trained to become useful people.

Ye Shiqi didn't know where they trained at all. She only heard from the maids around her that their training subjects included reading books, leg skills, and light work. It was completely military training plus liberal arts training.

There is no distinction between men and women in this kind of training. Only those who are outstanding can be with their masters, and those who are incapable can still work in their original places.

In the eyes of others, they are just ordinary workers, but secretly they are guards.

Ye Shiqi had watched a lot of TV dramas in her previous life, rich people would have private soldiers, even killers.

A general family like the Ye family must have raised a lot of soldiers, silently raising soldiers, to protect the master or to supplement the army.

Butler Ye Shiqi said that their master, the emperor, would not let their family come back for more than 20 years. It can be seen that it is taboo for others to have military tokens.

I just watched every generation of guarding the city, every dynasty as a general did not have a good end, and won't give more rewards if they win.

On the contrary, it will be taboo, and it also deliberately took over the military power, and the loss is even more responsible. Soldiers who died in battle, often such families are very heroic!
The dynasties in this book seem to have a history of 100 years, and the Zhao family is the emperor. Although it is also a powerful country, there are also many small and powerful countries around it, and they want to swallow it.

The small town on the border has always been not peaceful, and the army on the border has always had a very difficult life.

Ye Shiqi felt that the army of soldiers and assistants at the border might be worse than the peasants who had fields and land in the countryside before, and they could eat enough to work.

Like now, many people in their county can eat enough and build new houses. Especially in their village, ordinary farmers have become well-fed.

Ye Shiqi guessed somewhat that the rice shop run by the old housekeeper might work for their old master while harvesting grain across the country.

This was originally done by the imperial court, and it may be that some people filled their own pockets and failed to do some things that should be done.

Ye Shiqi is only guessing these things at the moment. If it is true, he would rather not sell the grain to the people in the county, and let the old housekeeper quietly transport the grain away.

If necessary, they must go to the border town, provided that the old housekeeper finds out that their family is the descendants of their old master.

When Ye Shiqi asked the maid to read the accounts, she thought a lot about it.

Also give pointers to their accounts, the arrangement and method of writing accounts, so that they can understand why she said that the accounts written by the shopkeeper are a bit messy.

This is not clear at a glance, and every stroke of writing is messy.

Ye Shiqi thought that while she had some time now, she could teach the maids around her, and she could also let the maids around her make up the accounts by themselves, so that they could hand them over to the shopkeepers at night.

It relieved my uncle's work.

Ye Shiqi knew that my uncle left the manor early in the morning to see the crops of the two manors. Farmers are most concerned about the crops, and whether they can eat or not depends on the crops.

This means that whether other shops can make money depends on crops, and granaries must also be built.

I believe that these old butlers have worked a lot of things. The old butler who looks old is just an ordinary butler. Looking at his riding posture, An An is a practicing family.

Under the guidance of the young lady, the two maids asked the shopkeeper for two blank ledgers, and now they listened to the young lady's guidance and specially wrote the accounts.

After half an hour, the carriage arrived at Zhao's Manor, which has now been changed to their family's manor.

The group of them got out of the car and saw the outskirts that they finally arrived. There were mountains in the distance, and the fields in the manor were relatively plain.

Then there is a little difficulty, the problem of water source, they can only grow a little drought-tolerant food here.

Like that kind of rice, the planting is relatively small.

Ye Shiqi entered the manor with her family, and after looking at it, she came to the conclusion that there is a ditch here, and there is a big river next to the manor, and their method of passing water is a little old.

There was a point that was too labor-intensive, and she had to tell her little uncle when she went back to improve the water source here so that she could grow better and more crops.

Then the old butler took them to another manor, which had a little more houses than the previous manor.

Ye Shiqi... Could it be that a grain warehouse was really built here?
When they came to this manor, Li Zhihao was also here. Seeing their family coming, he asked Ye Shiqi first to tell what he saw, and asked them to see how the store looked!
Ye Shiqi has already proved from her uncle's mouth that there is indeed a grain warehouse in this manor.
