Female supporting role in the lean years: eating melon with the front foot, counterattack with the b

"You girl, you are still fooling Grandpa Shen. How is it possible that your two stores are doing so well and you still say you haven't made any money?" The Marquis of Zhenbei didn't believe it when he heard this, and just thought it was Shen Yunxi's excuse.

Shen Yunxi smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid Grandpa Shen doesn't know that both stores are rented. You can see that there are many waiters in the store. There is a reason why our store's business is so good."

"The waiters basically get commissions. How much money can they get from one table? Some good performers earn three taels of silver a month. Look at how low the waiters are."

"The rest will definitely be left after paying taxes on the purchased goods. But I am a woman who also likes to dress up. I will buy dozens of jewelry and dresses. My grandparents must be filial, and my brother at home must also be subsidized for his studies. [-]. There really isn’t much money left.”

After hearing Song Yunxi's words, the Zhenbei Marquis fell silent.If that's the case, it's really quite a lot.

"Then have you ever thought about selling the prescription?" Zhenbei Hou said tentatively, changing the topic.

Song Yunxi's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and she understood in her heart that this was for her own secret recipe.

But on his face, he said calmly, "Grandpa Shen is wrong. Any cook with some skills can copy my secret recipe in a short time. Not to mention that there is at least seven or eight in it, and I actually don't make much money." It’s popular because it’s cheap and can fill you up.”

Marquis Zhenbei fell silent when he heard Song Yunxi's words. He didn't know whether Song Yunxi's words were true or not. If they were true, buying the secret recipe would definitely not work.

Seeing that he fell silent, Song Yunxi felt a little uneasy.But she didn't panic, everything she said was true, but it was up to her how to interpret it.

"I think Erya seems to have some research on business. I wonder if there is any way to make some money quickly in a short period of time." Zhenbei Hou asked tentatively.

"Well, to be honest, we are just a small county and our consumption power is not that high. I'm afraid it will be difficult to make money quickly. But since ancient times, it has been easier for rich people to make money." Song Yunxi thought for a moment. , and then expressed his opinion.

"But I don't mean to hear that you all have opinions on taxes and money." Zhenbei Hou said directly.

Hearing this, Song Yunxi was obviously a little embarrassed.She smiled and said, "It's not that we don't want to pay, but that it's too high. It doesn't look like much, but it's really not something that small shops like us with no background can afford."

"If you really want to pay taxes like this, we don't need to open a small store like ours. You can only make one percent like some grocery stores. If you pay taxes, I'm afraid the goods won't be able to come in."

Although Song Yunxi's words were a bit exaggerated, there was nothing wrong with them.

After hearing this, Zhenbei Hou fell silent for a moment and said directly, "Those of us who lead troops to fight are rough people and don't know the twists and turns of this shopping mall."

"I treat you as one of my own, and I won't be a stranger to you. Now that the army is in a hurry, military expenditures are in urgent need, and Mr. Hou is worried that he can't even eat. I'm not embarrassing you shops. But there is really nothing I can do. If there is a way, Hou I won’t do anything like this!”

When the Marquis of Zhenbei said this, his expression was not good, and suddenly a soldier broke in.

"What's the matter? You're in such a hurry." The Marquis of Zhenbei glared at the visitor and scolded him displeasedly.

"Master, the Jin Dynasty army has arrived at the city, and it is a young general who is leading the army. Two cities have been captured." The subordinate reported tremblingly.

"What? How is it possible? Didn't it mean that the boy was dead?" Zhenbei Hou said in disbelief.

The subordinate lowered his head and did not dare to answer these words. Song Yunxi would have had this day for a long time, but he did not expect it to happen so soon.

"What use do you really have?" Zhenbei Hou roared angrily, then turned and left.This time he did not hide his evil aura.

After he left, before Song Yunxi could recover, the young master of that day walked over with a smile on his face.

"Long time no see, little girl!" He smiled softly, and people who didn't know might think he was a very good person. "You?" Song Yunxi looked at him in surprise.

"Little girl, I like you very much, why don't you marry me." He looked at Song Yunxi with a smile.

Song Yunxi frowned when he heard this and said, "Master, please respect yourself."

"Self-respect? This is the first time someone has said this word to me." Hearing Song Yunxi's words, the smile on his face became more obvious.

"Master, don't you go and take a look?" Song Yunxi said impatiently.

"Marching and fighting are not my business. I just want to enjoy life. It would be unsightly if I interfered too much." He smiled and shook the folding fan in his hand and said nonchalantly.

Song Yunxi was stunned for a moment to hear his hidden meaning, and asked tentatively, "What do you want me to do?"

The smile on the man's face became bigger, but his expression was not serious and he joked, "What can I want you to do? Be my wife."

Hearing this, Song Yunxi's face darkened, and she said to Han Dong standing aside, "Why are you still standing there seeing off guests?"

Han Dong hurriedly came over and said to the man, "Please, sir."

The man frowned, shook his folding fan in displeasure and said, "You are such an ignorant girl. I am interested in you just to give you face."

"Thank you for your respect, I don't deserve it." Song Yunxi said angrily.

This was the first time she had encountered such a deceitful person in a long time, and she felt particularly unhappy.

I feel like this is a lunatic!After watching him leave, Song Yunxi directly ordered, "Close the door! We'll tell you when we open the door. I don't know how long this stick will last."

At this time, the servants of the Song family hurried over, saluted Song Yunxi and said, "I'm sorry, Miss. Something happened at home."

Song Yunxi was stunned when she heard this. She didn't understand what could happen to her family.But he still ran home quickly.

I saw Mr. Song and Mrs. Song sitting at the top with ugly faces, while the eldest aunt and the second aunt were crying and couldn't stop crying.

Seeing me coming in, Mrs. Song just looked up and then lowered her head.

"Grandma, what's going on?" Song Yunxi was confused, so she looked at everyone with heavy faces and wondered what was going on.

"Your eldest and second uncle were working hard at home, but they were kidnapped by the conscripts. What do you think is going on?" Mrs. Li cried miserably, with panic on her face as if she hadn't recovered yet.

"What." Song Yunxi was also shocked when she heard this. She really didn't expect so many things to happen in just this moment.

The one with the ugliest face was Mrs. Song. She slapped the table and said dissatisfiedly, "Erya, please take me to the government office."

As soon as these words came out, Mr. Song looked at her in surprise, but didn't say anything.
