Chapter 663

The two of them took their servants and sat down in the corner of the teahouse under the eyes of a few sporadic guests.

Mrs. Qian also resigned to her fate, and did not let the doctor of tea in the teahouse greet her, and told the girl: "Go, bring a pot of Yunwu here."

Mrs. Zhao quickly said: "No, how can we let Mrs. Qian treat guests and let Xiuqin go over. We are not familiar with the rules of the capital, so this girl can just point her to the place."

Mrs. Qian did not refuse, "You lead Miss Xiuqin there."

Mrs. Zhao didn't care whether the tea was served or not, she sat opposite Mrs. Qian, leaned forward, and hurriedly asked in a low voice: "Mrs. Qian, you have a lot of knowledge, tell me, how can my family, Aqiao, run a construction business properly?" ?”

Mrs. Qian looked distressed, "Didn't I just say that there is really no way. Well, isn't the construction company Mr. Wang attached to before that is quite large? I think it's good to stay there. The senior manager of the large construction company, It's decent too."

Zhao's complexion was ugly again, and he said falteringly: "Aqiao's craftsmanship is good, I think, if he does things for himself, it should be better."

"Oh." Mrs. Qian saw that Mrs. Zhao avoided the original construction business, so she stopped continuing the question just now and said in a deep voice, "As far as I know, most of the craftsmen with good craftsmanship are employed by the employer and earn a living. A high salary. If you do it yourself... very little, those rich and powerful people can't allow a good craftsman to steal their business, right?"

Grabbing Mrs. Qian's hand, Mrs. Zhao said, "Mrs. Qian, you have a lot of knowledge. If you think about it again, isn't there anyone who has no backing and only relies on his good craftsmanship to make money by setting up construction companies and workshops?" Mrs. Qian's eyes were full of anticipation and urgency.

Mrs. Qian shook her head, "As far as I know, no. Even in business, as well as those landlords and squires, family wealth is accumulated little by little. Even after several generations, the wealth has accumulated and the prestige has gradually accumulated. There are fewer people who can make their minds up."

"Like my family, Aqiao, who has the only exquisite craftsmanship in the world, and can't start a construction business by himself?" Zhao's voice was a little more urgent, hoping to hear an affirmative answer.

Mrs. Qian continued to shake her head, "I'm not afraid that you won't listen, the better the craftsmanship, the more eye-catching it is. It's not stable."

"A little bit of accumulation." Mrs. Zhao let go of Mrs. Qian's hand and murmured.

People are accumulating money and passing it on to the next generation, but her family relies on Aqiao's craftsmanship. Money can be accumulated in business, so how can the craftsmanship be accumulated?What if the next generation doesn't have such skills?
Mrs. Qian tentatively suggested, "Let your manager, Wang Da, find an employer as well. If you want to use Wang Da's craftsmanship, the wages should not be low. Slowly accumulate some land. He is still young. After decades, if you want to come to the land Just accumulate more."

With a pale face, Mrs. Zhao nodded and said, "Yes, to buy land. That's right, to buy land." Now, the silver in her hand is more than 7000 taels, enough to buy two to three hundred acres of fertile land.

However, this is not what she has in mind. Moreover, according to Mrs. Qian's opinion, this property has to be bought slowly, not a lot at once, or someone will seize the property.Just like Papa Aqiao, the family was ruined by the disturbance.

Mrs. Qian added tea to Mrs. Zhao herself, and said, "Actually, if the master's family is not too harsh, it's not bad to stay in the original business. Being a senior manager for many years can also accumulate contacts. After ten or twenty years In 20, people recognized Wang Da's outstanding performance, and they might be able to do it by themselves."

Mrs. Zhao opened her mouth several times, but couldn't utter a word.

Xiuqin on the side bowed her head deeply, the master is not too harsh?Mr. Qi and Miss Ye are not too harsh. They are too tolerant and treat their cousin and aunt as family members.

After that, there was nothing to talk about. Mrs. Qian had nothing to say to talk to Mrs. Zhao about the customs of Chinese New Year, and some jokes about the inn guests. Looking for an opportunity, he left in a hurry.

Mrs. Zhao returned to the courtyard of Qi's family in a daze. She didn't even see Qi Younian standing in the courtyard, and walked to the backyard in a daze.

Xiuqin, who was following the Zhao family, quickly bowed to Qi Younian and followed in.

Qi Younian looked at the backs of Mrs. Zhao and the three of them, and couldn't help being surprised, what's wrong?Could it be that Ye Zi secretly muttered that maybe Jiang Yifan would make a bad plan start?

Could it be that this plan is to frighten Mrs. Zhao into a pale face and bewildered?No way?
When Wang Qiao came back at night, he naturally found that something was wrong with Mrs. Zhao. He was fine at breakfast, and he looked so good, and he was going to go out to sweep the goods in good spirits.

Wang Qiao didn't care about washing his face, so he hurriedly sat on the edge of the kang beside Mrs. Zhao, and shook Mrs. Zhao's hand, feeling cold, "Mother, what's wrong with you? But you don't feel well? Do you want to ask a doctor to take a look? "

Mrs. Zhao leaned on the stacked pillows, and said weakly: "It's okay, I'm just a little tired, just take a rest."

No matter what Wang Qiao saw, Mrs. Zhao didn't look tired, so she asked Xiuqin, "My mother didn't dress properly, did she catch a cold?"

"No, no." Xiuqin replied stammering, aunt is really fine, but her heart is not going well, and her hopes have been shattered, "However, it would be good to ask a doctor to take a look." At least two doses are prescribed. Eat the prescription with smooth chest.

"No, no." Mrs. Zhao hurriedly leaned over, took Wang Qiao's arm, turned her head and scolded Xiuqin, "Why are you making fun of me? Why do I need to take medicine?"

"But your complexion is really bad." Wang Qiao asked doubtfully.

"Oh, mother is shopping for fabrics today, and met a lady who runs an inn..." Mrs. Zhao said to herself repeatedly, this is her son, there is nothing she can't say, and she described in detail what happened to Mrs. Qian that day. .

After Mrs. Zhao finished speaking, she looked at Wang Qiao anxiously, hoping that Wang Qiao could say something.

However, Wang Qiao stared back at her in astonishment, and didn't say anything for a long time.

After searching for a topic for a long time, Mrs. Zhao asked, "Aqiao, don't you understand? According to what she said, can we people not live a good life?"

Wang Qiao was stunned for a long while, and then said with difficulty: "My father lost his life because of this, I thought you remembered it, mother."

Zhao's face turned paler just after recovering, "I thought..."

Wang Qiao sighed secretly, how could he think that if his mother could forget such a thing, it would be a real family ruin.

"You probably forgot that my fourth uncle received a letter from my uncle. The letter said that while Mr. Rong Liuye and Mr. Jiang are in Qinghe County, we should quickly expand the construction business, accumulate property as soon as possible, and buy contacts. Uncle Dare Resuming the old business is because of the prince to rely on."

Zhao once again leaned weakly on the pillow, and asked for a long time: "Then what shall we do?"

Wang Qiao said in surprise: "Go back to Hezhou, our plan is to go back to Hezhou."

"But..." Mrs. Zhao looked up at Wang Qiao who was standing beside the kang.But what are you going back for?
