Farming at the beginning, I rely on business to counterattack and become a princess

"What do you know! After Dao'er passed the government examination, he will go to the provincial school to study, but the provincial school is in Fucheng." Wen Zhong stopped beating Wen Zhang.

"Then it's good to study in Fucheng, why go all the way to the capital." Wen Xin suggested.

yes!Everyone's eyes lit up, as if they saw hope.

"Brother, Kaijia Academy is the best academy in Yongjia. If I study there, I will be more confident in passing the examination."

"Oh—" Everyone was disappointed.

"Dao'er, are you really going?" Wen Zhong asked with his last hope.

"Yes, uncle, I have already made up my mind. I must pass the general examination and obtain the qualification of scribes, so as to comfort the spirit of my parents in heaven."

Wen Zhong showed a gratified expression: "Okay, okay, you are ambitious, you are worthy of being a descendant of our Wen family, uncle believes in you, you go."

Wen Dao secretly heaved a sigh of relief, although he was very stubborn on the surface, but if Wen Zhong objected, he would be very embarrassed.

"Well, second girl, do you want to follow?" Mrs. Zhang asked cautiously.

"Of course." Wen Xiang replied as a matter of course.

"The shop in the city?" Mrs. Zhang hesitated to speak.

"Hey, why do you care so much?" Wen Zhong stopped immediately.

Wen Xiang smiled: "Of course it is turned off."

Mrs. Zhang was very disappointed: If the shops in the city were closed, wouldn't the second child have to go home to farm again?Alas, the twelve taels of silver a year is about to fly again.

Wen Jing was also a little disappointed: he had been working on grinding spices for a long time, and he was really reluctant.

Although he didn't want to say it, Wen Zhong still had to say: "Second girl, Dao'er is going to study, you are a girl, it's not good to be alone for a long time, why don't you stay at home?"

"Uncle, don't worry, I won't be alone. I will bring Tusun, Lao Wu, and four servants to Beijing with me."

"Then why don't you take your second brother there?" Mrs. Zhang asked eagerly.

"Auntie, the capital city is not as good as Chengnan County where you can go back and forth in one day. It will take three years to go to the capital. The second brother left with us. What about the second sister-in-law? Do you want the second brother and the second sister-in-law to be separated for a long time?"

"What's the matter? If we separate, we will separate." Mrs. Zhang disapproved.

Mrs. Qian has not been able to give birth to a second child for several years, and Mrs. Zhang has long since given up her hopes for her. Letting the second child follow her to the capital can make more money.

Wen Xiang glanced at Qian Shi, she was showing a pleading look to Wen Xiang, if you translate her look, it is probably saying "Please".

Wen Xiang smiled: "Auntie, are you willing to let the second brother, the second sister-in-law, and the eldest daughter all follow us?"

"Your second brother can go alone."

"No, no!" Wen Xiang shook his head and denied, "Unless the whole family of the second brother goes with us, otherwise, I can't take the second brother."

Qian secretly breathed a sigh of relief: The second girl is really kind.

Mrs. Zhang was reluctant to let Mrs. Qian go, her face was wrinkled into flowers.

Now, Wen Zhong had nothing to say: "Then when are you going to leave?"

"Probably around the Lantern Festival."

Now there are still about three months before the Lantern Festival, Wen Zhong relaxed slightly: "That's okay, I have plenty of time, I can pack things well."

"Uncle, we don't plan to take anything with us, we just need to bring some clothes with us. Please ask Uncle to take a look at the house at home."

"Don't worry about family matters."

"Thank you, uncle." Wendao, the brother and sister bowed to thank each other.

"By the way, Uncle, although Zhao Zhuangtou is in charge of our fields, I still want to hire my elder brother to help manage them."

Wen Xiang finally mentioned the topic that Wen Zhang was most concerned about, and he couldn't help but look hopeful, but the result disappointed him greatly: Why should the elder brother manage it?
"Whatever you say please, it's all my own people." Wen Zhong thought that it was just a matter of hand.

Wen Xin also immediately expressed his attitude: "The family doesn't say anything. Fourth brother and second sister, don't worry, I will help you keep an eye on Zhao Zhuangtou."

"34 acres of land, it's not much, it's not much. Although there is Zhao Zhuangtou, there are many things to worry about. The uncle's house also has a lot of work. Besides, even relatives have no reason to let people do it for nothing. .”

"Uncle, that's what I think. For the time being, the eldest brother will have the final say on the field affairs. The second and third brothers will be responsible for cooperating with the eldest brother in the management work."

"Every year, the harvest in the field, after deducting the part paid to the tenant farmers and taxes, the remaining part, Zhao Zhuangtou gets 5.00%, the eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother each get 5.00%, and the rest is our own. It's gone."

"For our part, I asked my elder brother to change it into silver and record it on the account. I will try my best to come back to collect the account once a year."

Wen Xiang's arrangement took very good care of Wen Zhong's family, which was equivalent to directly giving 15.00% of the harvest to the three brothers.

"There is no need to give so many of them, but with a little effort, it is more than enough to give them a total of 5.00%." ​​Wen Zhong objected.

Mrs. Zhang and Wen Zhang were very happy when they heard Wen Xiang's words, but they didn't expect Wen Zhong to make a horizontal move, and they became a little anxious, thinking: If someone is willing to give it to you, just accept it, why are you pretending to be generous?

"That can't be done." Wen Xiang smiled and said: "Uncle, this is the wages that my elder brother and the others deserve for working for me. I think they each have a small family, and there are always some bits and pieces that need money. They always ask the family If it’s not very convenient, why don’t you just keep the wages for their own use?”

Wen Zhong and Mrs. Zhang were stunned: Why didn't the money go to the public office?
Wen Xiang's move was really beyond Wen Zhong's expectation, for a while, he couldn't think of any strong reason to refute.But, why smell the fragrance has the final say in everything?

Wen Zhong's eyes couldn't help but drifted towards Wen Dao: Dao'er, Dao'er, if you don't say a word, who is in charge of your family?It's you?Or the second girl?

Isn't this obvious?Wen Dao couldn't stop smiling wryly in his heart, he didn't dare to look at Wen Zhong at all, so he could only stare at the ground a foot below his feet.

The three Wen family brothers and their daughters-in-law were delighted in their hearts: Yes, yes, Second Sister, you are really kind, well done.

Mrs. Zhang is impatient. This financial power must not be out of her control: "No, no, it's very convenient. I'll just give them whatever money they want."

I don't know why the topic suddenly changed, from whether to give 15.00% of the salary to whether to let them get their own money.

Wen Xiang smiled, and suddenly said to Wen Zhang: "Third brother, what do you think?"

In this kind of matter involving vital interests, Wen Zhang stood on the opposite side of Zhang's without any hesitation, and immediately turned against each other: "I think it's very good, very good, second sister, third brother will definitely support you."

Wen Xiang turned to Wen Xin: "What do you think, brother?"
