Chapter 876
"Sixth Sister, she is innocent, active and lively, as long as she doesn't cause you any trouble."

Of the several Lans in the family, Minglan likes to exercise the most.

Whether it's throwing pots, chuiwan, or polo, as long as it's a sport, Ming Lan likes to play.

It's just that when I'm in Bianliang, Sheng Hong, Wang Ruofu, and Lin Yushuang are watching, and Mo Lan and Ru Lan are watching. Ming Lan needs to restrain herself.

After leaving these people, and getting together with Pinlan again in Youyang, and letting go of herself, Minglan might not be able to let go of herself.

Although the two-year-old girl is so troublesome, she will not worry too much about taking care of the two tossing two-year-old girls.

"It's all good. They are all living well at home. I want to tell you that after Changwu's marriage, your old lady should have returned to Bianliang. But because my old lady is not in good health, she I really can't bear to part with your old lady, so I left your old lady and sixth younger sister to stay at home for a while longer."

Although Chang Song didn't say it directly, Sheng Changbai also knew that the old lady in Dafang was not in good health and might not be able to survive this winter.

The old lady of the second room stayed in Youyang, and wanted to see the old lady of the big room for the last time.

Then wait for the old lady of the big house to leave, and help the big house to take charge of it, and help to scare the old lady of the three-bedroom prodigal, so as to prevent the old lady of the three-bedroom from relying on the old to sell the old to embarrass the big house and want to take advantage of it.

"Uncle Wei, Uncle Ma, Brother Song, you bother me so much."

"It's because our family kept your old lady and made you worry." Chang Song replied apologetically.

This is Chang Song's overthinking. In a normal family, the elderly are not at home when they go out. The younger generations at home must worry about the elderly.

But the situation of the second room, from Sheng Hong, Wang Ruofu to Lin Xiaoniang, Wei Xiaoniang, and the younger generation in the family.

It can be said that it is impossible to worry about the old lady.

It's either that the old lady is less restrained when she leaves home, or she has no sense of the old lady's presence or absence.

"Let's stop being so polite. I'll let them prepare the meal, and we'll talk while eating." Sheng Changbai said.

While setting up a banquet, eating and drinking, the two of them had some homely conversations.

It was Changsong's first day here, and he wanted to renew his old relationship no matter what.

The most important thing in the relationship between the two is friendship, and business has always been a secondary matter.

Sheng Changbai pays more attention to businessmen than others, because he understands the power of businessmen better than others.

After Changsong came over, it was not only convenient for Sheng Changbai to make more money.

With the size of Dafang Youyang's richest man, after arriving in Xuzhou, he is also a wealthy businessman.

Investing in some workshops in Xuzhou can also prosper a lot of Xuzhou's economy.

A workshop employs hundreds of people, and the livelihood of hundreds of families has been solved.

Because most of the means of production, whether it is billet iron or silk, come from the bottom of the common people, and can indirectly radiate thousands of families.

Xuzhou City's smelting and silk have great potential for development.

Now that Changsong is here, Sheng Changbai can let Changsong take the lead in developing these two industries in Xuzhou.

With the degree of support from the big house to the second house, the big house can definitely develop in the direction it needs.

It's much easier than Sheng Changbai going to the local rich businessman to attract investment, trouble and disobedience.

On the first day, Sheng Changbai took Changsong around Pengcheng.

Let the squires and wealthy businessmen in Pengcheng know about the relationship between Changsong and Sheng Changbai.

There is no obstacle for Changsong to integrate into the upper circles of Xuzhou.

Not to mention that they will not experience various obstacles for foreign businessmen to enter the local area, these people will even provide Changsong with various conveniences.

"Brother Song, since you are here, follow me to Feng County and Xiao County for a walk."

Next, Sheng Changbai still wanted to visit Feng County and Xiao County, and invited Chang Song to come with him.

On the one hand, I took Changsong to play, and on the other hand, I took Changsong to socialize with these big households who did not live in Zhoucheng.

Because it happened to be the time to collect the autumn Fu, and it was indeed the peak period of frequent walking.

Let Changsong integrate into Xuzhou very quickly. With Changsong's basic qualities of being a successful businessman, making friends with all parties, and dancing with long sleeves, within a few days, he became one with these big families in Xuzhou.

……

"Brother Bai, then I'll go back to Youyang first, and I'll come back when the workshop here is completed."

Changsong didn't stay in Xuzhou for too long, only about twenty days, less than a month. After finishing the basics, he handed over the matter to the manager of the firm.

Uncle Wei is in a semi-retired state, and Chang Song is basically doing all the things that the firm needs to travel around.

The rich family assets of big houses are not picked up in vain, and doing business is also a hard work.

After Changsong took over, he didn't have much free time and was always busy.

The merchants in Dazhou are basically divided into three types, one is Hong merchants, the other is sitting merchants, and the other is dental merchants.

Relatively speaking, Dafang's business is still mostly in the business model.

To put it simply, it is to walk around and do some things that buy low and sell high.

Dafang's most important business route now is from Jiangning to Bianliang.

To be a good merchant, the main thing is to be able to enjoy both black and white, and to open up business routes.

Now Dafang buys property in Xuzhou, and what it does is what it does as a businessman, and it opens a workshop as a producer.

To do business, you need to have a certain status in a region, whether it is an official or a large local family, you must have a certain influence.

They cannot be exploited by subordinate officials in the government, nor can they be squeezed out by local big families.

Now that Sheng Changbai is in Xuzhou, it is of course no problem for Dafang to do business in Xuzhou.

Even if Sheng Changbai left Xuzhou, if the big house business didn't compete with the local forces in terms of too many interests, it would be enough to protect him.

In Youyang, Dafang barely does what a dentist does.

In the case of merchants, they buy food, cloth and other goods from ordinary people, small merchants, and small landlords, and then wait for merchants from other places to come to purchase them, and then sell them in large quantities at a higher price.

Most of the local tooth dealers are doing it by some local landowners.

Compared with being a merchant, the influence and influence on the local area is even higher.

The influence of dental merchants on the local area usually needs to be able to influence all levels of the common people to the government, so that they can collect various materials in batches.

The big house is in Youyang, and will also collect various supplies from small households, but it is not considered a tooth dealer.

Dafang is doing business by himself, of course, he still transports all kinds of goods to other places, and the profit is higher.

Of course, it's not just such a second-hand dealer.

"Then you go back. After you go back, help me take it to your old lady, Uncle Wei, and Auntie. This is a letter I brought to my old lady and Minglan. There are also some gifts for everyone in Youyang, you Help me take it back."

For the two old ladies, it is some supplements such as ginseng and bird's nest.

The gift to Uncle Wei is some calligraphy and paintings, either ancient and contemporary celebrities, or inscriptions of various officials. Art is not important, but the identity of the writer is important. Uncle Wei likes this kind of thing.

For example, the female relatives of the big house are the eldest aunt, Changsong's daughter-in-law, and some silks and satins. For the younger sisters, Sheng Changbai just sends some fashionable and well-made jewelry.

If Sheng Changbai brought enough money when he went out, he could make money himself, or the relationship between relatives would be unbearable.

……

After collecting the autumn tax, Changsong was also sent away. Sheng Changbai had nothing to do in the yamen, and nothing to do at home.

After the autumn harvest, the farmers planted some winter wheat, and they were relatively leisurely, without farming.

Sheng Changbai conscripted corvee on a large scale, and began large-scale work on the river.

The collection and issuance of corvee is still a voluntary principle this time, and families with good conditions can spend money to buy corvee.

The conditions of these families are good, and they are not good laborers.

It's better to take out the money, which can be supplemented by the working civilians.

It is impossible for Sheng Changbai to give money to these servants.

Sheng Changbai really can't afford it. After he has money, he can make these people eat better.

Xuzhou is considered to be a good year this year, and there is a lot of grain left in the warehouse.

In addition to the grain in the normal warehouse, it is necessary to save it to prevent the disaster year.

The rest can be left to Sheng Changbai's control.

Sheng Changbai can make the servants eat more dry rice and make the porridge thicker.

It is not realistic to eat meat, but each person can mix a bowl of broth and bone soup every day to replenish oil and water.

According to the reward and punishment system established by Sheng Changbai, good performance can also be supplemented with a few pieces of meat.

During normal construction, pay more attention to construction safety.

Only in this way, Sheng Changbai became a rare honest official in the mouths of the people.

The common people were working for nothing, and one by one praised Sheng Changbai as a good official who cared for the people.

After all, it is to build dikes, dams, canals, and rivers for themselves, so as to facilitate irrigation of their own farmland. These people are more willing to work.

I worked on the project for another two months, and in November, Dafang sent people to Xuzhou.

"My lord, you Yang sent a letter, the old lady has passed away!"

"I'm going to the study to write a memorial for the old lady."

Sheng Changbai was prepared for the death of the old lady.

If it weren't for the old lady of the first room who was running out of time, the old lady of the second room had shown Ming Lanxiang a house, and if there was no suitable one in Youyang, the old lady should have returned to Bianliang.

With an old lady in Bianjing, Sheng Changbai doesn't have to worry about family matters.

Worrying about what will happen to the trio of Sheng Hong, Wang Ruofu, and Lin Yushuang someday.

In the case of the old lady in Dafang, Sheng Changbai can use the skill 'Rejuvenation' to save the old lady in Dafang's life.

But Sheng Changbai has only saved one opportunity now, and of course it still has to be reserved for his old lady, and people are still divided into relatives and estrangements.

Although when he went to Youyang, Sheng Changbai felt that the old lady of Dafang was amiable and a kind elder.

But conditions do not allow, Sheng Changbai can only express regret.

The old lady of Dafang was originally a carefree and rich lady in her natal family, who married the old lady of Dafang.

Encountering a husband doting on his concubine and destroying his wife, his family is in decline, so he avoids living in the countryside and raises his children alone.

Her husband passed away at a young age, and the concubine was expelled. From being in charge of the family, until the son became an adult and took charge of the family, he managed it carefully and restored the family business.

After that, the life of the children went smoothly, and now I see the two grandsons getting married and starting a business.

With so many things, the old lady of Dafang has no regrets except for the death of a daughter.

The sacrificial text should be written in rhyme, and the content is mainly mourning, praying, reminiscing about the main experiences of the deceased, praising moral achievements, expressing mourning, and motivating the living.

In addition to being used for mourning at funerals, sacrificial texts will also be offered in the ancestral hall and recited by descendants during sacrifices.

Sheng Changbai's respect for the old lady of Dafang is to write the sacrificial text as well as possible.

If there is no accident, Sheng Changbai's sacrificial rite is also the most important one among the old lady's rites, and will be left for future generations to recite repeatedly.

Sheng Changbai is Tanhualang and has been in the pavilion. He can be regarded as the person with the highest education and the highest literary achievements in the Sheng family. His future official status should also be the highest in Sheng Changbai. All aspects determine the importance of Sheng Changbai's sacrificial offering.

"Liu Tao, you represent me and send the sacrificial text to Youyang, and then you will come back after the old lady's funeral is over."

Xu Sanzao was sent to the old lady's side and stayed in Youyang, and now only Liu Tao is left who can best represent Sheng Changbai's identity.

Asking Liu Tao to bring some people over there can prevent any accidents when the old lady of Dafang is buried.

Sheng Changbai couldn't go by himself. Although the general judgment is still relatively free in the local area, Sheng Changbai can indeed skip work.

But there are seven or eight hundred miles from Xuzhou to Youyang, which is not too far, but it can't be said to be close.

Come and go, no matter what, it will take ten and a half days.

Sheng Changbai tossed the entire territory of Xuzhou into a large construction site, expropriated tens of thousands of people, and invested so much manpower and material resources.

Sheng Changbai is really worried if he leaves for such a long time.

After the project started, that is, when it was approaching the New Year's Eve, it stopped.

Sheng Changbai is alone in Xuzhou, but he doesn't feel so strongly about the age.

Years ago, they received gifts from Mrs. Youyang, Mrs. Hualan from Bianliang, Sheng Hong from the Sheng family, Wang Ruofu, and Hai Chaoyun.

Sheng Changbai, who had been hanging out on the construction site, realized that the New Year's Eve was approaching.

So on the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, Sheng Changbai stopped the construction, and planned to wait until the Chinese New Year was over before continuing the construction.

He also prepared various gifts and sent people to send them to Youyang, Bianjing, and Haijia as soon as possible.

It was also the time of the New Year, and no one was in charge of the New Year's rituals at home, and Sheng Changbai had to prepare them himself.

Only then did Sheng Changbai realize that it was necessary to marry a daughter-in-law before leaving Beijing to take office.

Of course, Sheng Changbai didn't regret not getting married early, according to Wang Ruofu's character.

Even if Sheng Changbai married a daughter-in-law, Wang Ruofu might not let Sheng Changbai take his wife into office.

I want to keep my daughter-in-law to serve me at home, so that I can put on the prestige of my mother-in-law.

In this feudal society, generations of daughters-in-law have followed the rules and served their parents-in-law.

After waiting for the original daughter-in-law for many years, she finally became a mother-in-law.

Most of them have some problems in their hearts. They always want their daughter-in-law to suffer again for the crimes they suffered at the beginning.

How did my mother-in-law enjoy the service of my daughter-in-law back then, so I have to enjoy it myself.

Then it's the cycle over and over again.
