Nongmen Jia Niang: The little blessed wife of the general's family

Chapter 375
The people from the capital were just three accountants and a newly-trained steward named Zheng Xiong. He had a loud name, but he was tall and thin, and looked more like a frail scholar.

When I asked, it turned out that he was really a scholar, and he also had the reputation of a scholar.

Yin Tao was surprised, and asked him: "Then why did you come to my place?"

It's really rare that scholars are so lofty that they are willing to do business. Yin Tao's people are all trained after they come in.

Zheng Xiong cupped his hands and smiled, but he could see a trace of helplessness: "I am not far from Hong Jun's family, but my family's conditions are slightly better, but it is not easy to support me to study. It's the limit."

Obviously, he has no hope of continuing the scientific research at all, and he is a person who can recognize his own ability.

Yin Tao asked again: "You can go to a private school to teach children enlightenment?"

He shook his head: "For me to study, the eldest brother in the family didn't get married until he was 25, and the second brother is 23 and hasn't gotten married yet. I'm 21 this year, and it's time to repay my family. The family has a large population. It’s just a drop in the bucket.”

Hong Jun added from the side: "His eldest sister has been subsidizing the family for many years, and has been blamed by her husband's family. Now his eldest sister is not doing well in her husband's family. He wants to earn some money to give her confidence!"

Yin Tao nodded, she looked upright and kind, her eyes were bright, and she didn't dodge when she looked at herself.

Zheng Xiong was actually beating drums in his heart. It is nothing to catch a scholar in the capital, but Hong Jun has become a legend in their area. He is praised every time he goes out. How many people flatter Aunt Qiu just for Send the children at home to work under him.

What made Zheng Xiong most determined was Tan Shu, a teenage child who was calm and steady, and was followed when he went in and out.

And he brought back a girl whose appearance shocked everyone.

Yin Tao suddenly asked Hong Jun, "Are you still living there?"

Hong Jun smiled and said: "My mother likes it there. She said she was a familiar old neighbor when she came out. It happened that the neighbor was willing to give up the house, so I bought it and expanded the yard. It is barely enough for people to live in."

Yin Tao called Uncle Zhou to meet everyone again.

A local person is familiar with the situation here, and the other is a person from a commercial bank, who understands the business process of the commercial bank, and also has a role of mutual supervision.

After that, Hong Jun and the others spent every day in the workshops and fields in Yejia Town to understand the situation.

Then I visited some silk and brocade workshops that Uncle Zhou was familiar with, and the materials were collected in front of Yin Tao.

Yang Qinyun came here every day after dealing with things. It's not that she didn't trust them, but she was amazed at their efficiency. She also learned Yin Tao's way of handling things from the sidelines, and then slowly pondered in her heart.

The accountant is the most powerful of the commercial firm, and quickly calculated the cost and income of the workshop in Yejia Town, and also calculated the tax revenue that the entire county should have for just one piece of silk.

Yin Tao looked at the account book in his hand, thought for a long time, then asked someone to copy a copy of the account book, and ordered Huaijiao to take someone to the state capital to deliver to Ye Xiuwen himself.

After they left, Hong Jun, Zheng Xiong, and Uncle Zhou also planned to visit the neighboring county town, and then walked through the state capital.

"I saw a good place behind the county pier. It belongs to a landlord's property, but the head of this family is a bad gambler. Now they are heavily in debt. I'm afraid they won't last long."

Yin Tao changed her mind: "Is there someone playing tricks behind?"

Hong Jun smiled, he just likes to talk to Yin Tao, his thoughts are clear, and he doesn't need to explain everything in detail: "Yes, besides Zhuangzi, their family also has fertile fields and mulberry gardens. The current owner is not a very shrewd person. , There are many people staring at his property."

Yin Tao didn't ask, who is there, but anyone who can attract people to the casino is not a good thing: "We have secured this place."

The next day, after Hong Jun and others left, Huaijiao came back, along with Cao Jinze and two Qilin guards.

"Madam, Lord Hou asked his subordinates to come back and take the accountant to the state capital. There are some things that need to be clarified."

Yin Tao understood, but they might not be able to understand just by looking at the ledger.

But the three accountants had already followed Hong Jun, so Yin Tao asked him to follow.

Seeing that Cao Jinze was about to leave, Yin Tao stopped him again: "Don't be in a hurry, sit down and have a cup of tea, I have something to ask you."

Cai Lu came in with a tea tray and put tea in front of Cao Jinze. Cao Jinze knew Cai Lu and stood up to thank him. Cai Lu looked at him and smiled, then bowed his head and went out.

Cao Jinze turned his gaze, and immediately looked back at Yin Tao.

Seeing Yin Tao looking at him with a half-smile and a playful look in his eyes, Cao Jinze felt a little embarrassed.

Yin Tao had an idea in her heart, but she didn't say it, but asked, "How is the second master? Where does he live? Is there someone to take care of him?"

"Returning to Madam, both the county king and Lord Hou live in Xie's other courtyard, and they also sent someone to take care of them, but they were declined by Lord Hou."

Cao Jinze's answer was quite satisfactory, and there was nothing wrong with it. Yin Tao asked again: "Have you seen Princess Heyang? Who is going to receive her?"

After all, neither of them had an explicit imperial decree. From outsiders' point of view, it was Hou Ye who went home to bury his relatives, and the county king who had just left the palace to build a mansion took the opportunity to come to Gusu to play, and Hou Ye was just accompanying him.

Cao Jinze said: "I handed over the post on the second day of arrival, and met Princess Heyang the next day, but the two of them were reprimanded by Princess Heyang and told them to have fun for a few days before going back early."

rebuke?Yin Tao raised her eyebrows: "I don't know if the elder reprimanded the younger generation, or is there another plan?"

"We don't know about this now, but Princess Heyang sent Xie Yufeng, the second son of the Xie family, to live in another courtyard to accompany him in person."

"I'm afraid that accompanying them is fake, but staring at them is real!"

Cao Jinze nodded: "Fortunately, it was Huaijiao girl who came this time, and she also said that it was getting colder to deliver the clothes. Xie's family saw that she was a maid, so they relaxed a little."

Both of them smiled. This is a common problem of these high-ranking noblemen who look down on women and servants.

"From this point of view, this Xie Yufeng also has a gap to exploit."

Seeing that Cao Jinze was about to leave again, Yin Tao didn't stay soon, so he asked Cailu to prepare dry food and water for them.

Then he said to Cao Jinze: "If I remember correctly, you are not married yet, right?"

Cao Jinze's face was slightly red, he quickly stood up and bowed to Yin Tao, and said, "Thank you for your care and fulfillment, madam!"

Yin Tao was stunned instead, and then laughed loudly: "It seems that I should worry about the marriages of these girls around me."

She didn't think so much before, but now it seems that it's time to get married, and she doesn't pay much attention to being the master.
