Chapter 108 Things changed too quickly
Wu Han stood in front of several elders, his face slightly red, whether he was angry or anxious.
His voice was half as calm as usual: "Uncles, at this juncture, it's understandable if you want to quit. It's not that I don't want to give the money to everyone."
"It's just that Dongshun Restaurant can't come up with so much money at once."
"Fart." The old man who spoke first snorted: "Dongshun Restaurant has made a lot of money these years, and I can't even afford this little money. How about coaxing the kids?"
"Really, Third Grandpa." Wu Han explained: "You have also seen what the government announced. Wu Yong, Guangdong's eldest brother, loses tens of thousands of taels of silver every year, not to mention other expenses."
Before he finished speaking, another person interrupted: "We recognize the expenses. Wu Yong is the legitimate son of your main family leader. How much he loses has nothing to do with us. That should be borne by you!"
"Yes, don't take us for granted. When you talk about expenses, let's take a step back. We don't want five times the money and three times the total, right? Dongshun Restaurant will definitely go downhill from now on. You just took over it, so don't take it with you. We capsize the boat!”
"Based on three times the amount of silver, seven families would only have a total of more than 400,000 taels of silver, which would be enough profit for several decades!"
"You are a junior. If you hand over the money, can we still embarrass you?"
Wu Han spoke calmly, looked around at everyone, and said: "You elders are so persuasive, don't you think that Dongshun can survive this disaster?"
"Huh, don't think we don't know that my aunt's wife, Shaoqing, can't do it, and Dongshun has completely lost his support." The old man said disdainfully: "With Wu Yong's incident, how can we survive?"
"You have always had a different temperament from them, so we won't care about you and hand over the money."
"If we really can't get the money, the worst we can do is sell Dongshun, and the money will be shared equally among everyone. Anyway, we can't continue to operate!"
Wu Han really couldn't afford much money, and Shen Zhuoxi knew this very well.
In addition to sharing Dongshun's money as dividends, Wu Yong also stole Tan Mo.
If this continues, won't her idea be wasted?
Thinking of this, her mind changed, she turned to the teahouse next to her, and told Zhuye: "Go in and call Mr. Wu over."
The teahouse is under the name of Youxiang Mansion, and Youxiang Mansion has already greeted the property under its name. As soon as she entered, the shopkeeper recognized her and said respectfully: "Miss Shen Er, are you here to drink tea?"
"Yes, I want a few plates of snacks and a pot of good Biluochun." Shen Zhuoxi said with a slight smile.
The shopkeeper didn't dare to neglect and quickly led her to the private room on the second floor.
After a while, Wu Han also came up. His clothes were wrinkled, and he looked like he had been pushed.
He straightened his clothes and said with a wry smile: "You're telling the second lady to see a joke."
"It's okay. Is there a way to solve the problem?" Shen Zhuoxi pushed the tea bowl over and asked.
Wu Han shook his head and said with a frown: "The imperial edict to remove my uncle from office has been issued. The elders of the clan insist that Dongshun is hopeless and insist on getting back the money they earned back then."
"To be honest, what Dongshun can bring out now is at most one hundred thousand taels and more than 400,000 taels of silver, unless the Dongshun Restaurant is sold. But the key is, even if it is sold, no one will take over for the time being."
"What if someone takes over?" Shen Zhuoxi took a sip of tea and asked tentatively.
"The second young lady is joking. If the elders in the clan continue to make trouble like this, it won't be possible to run the business. I just sent them away with replies in the evening." Wu Han sighed.
"The change happened so fast. I don't know how long we will have to deal with it. I'm afraid I will be disappointed with the second lady's idea this morning."
Shen Zhuoxi didn't show off anymore and said directly: "It's very simple, I can take over."
"You?" Wu Han's hands shook: "More than four hundred thousand taels of silver is not a small amount!"
"I know that I received a lot of rewards at the mid-year banquet yesterday. Let alone hundreds of thousands of taels, I can easily sell them for millions of taels of silver." Shen Zhuoxi said lightly.
"Dongshun has been changed to my name, and you will still manage it. I will give you a second-level bonus every year, and you will be considered as a shareholder. However, the name needs to be changed, and it can no longer be linked to anyone in your clan."
"Second Miss provides the money, so of course you are the boss." Wu Han hesitated: "It's just such a big deal, I can't say it alone."
"Okay, you go back and discuss it." Shen Zhuoxi gave him enough time: "Give me an answer tomorrow at noon. Also, don't reveal any information about me."
"I understand." Wu Han stood up absentmindedly and said, "Wu takes his leave."
When he walked to the door, Wu Han thought of something again, took out the recipe and handed it to Shen Zhuoxi, saying, "Give this back to the second lady."
After Wu Han left, Shen Zhuoxi sat for a while before going downstairs to pay.
The shopkeeper said nothing and said: "Miss Shen Er, Madam personally gave the order. If the villain accepts your money, Madam will definitely punish him. Please don't embarrass the villain!"
"Take the silver, I'll talk to the madam in person." Shen Zhuoxi couldn't help but put the silver on the table and said, "Madam will definitely not embarrass you."
I haven't seen Zhang Shenzhi for several days, and I just happened to go to check his pulse. It's been ten days, so I should be able to change the prescription.
She went to Youxiang's Mansion to have her pulse diagnosed and acupuncture administered. After changing the prescription, it was almost dusk before she returned home.
The atmosphere in the house was really solemn, and a little unusually solemn.
The servants walked lightly, for fear of making any noise and making their master unhappy.
From the main hall back to Qingfeng Tower, I didn't see a single master.
Aunt Ju had already made herbal tea. Seeing her come in, she poured a cup and handed it to her. She asked with concern, "Miss, she left early in the morning and came back just now. Have you had lunch?"
"Eat something." Shen Zhuoxi moved his sore shoulders and said, "It's very quiet in the house. Are you afraid of being like this because of Han Xiangru's incident?"
"I don't know if you went out, but it wasn't because of the Second Madam that the eldest lady lost her temper during lunch and sold two maids." Aunt Ju lowered her voice and said.
"I heard that the two maids did not make any mistakes, so when they were serving the food, the plates they were carrying accidentally touched each other and made a clanking sound. I was slapped twenty times on the spot."
"The servants dare to make any noise, for fear that they themselves will be affected."
Shen Zhuoxi drank a lot of tea from Yi'antang to the teahouse today, and then at Youxiang's Mansion.
Then he took a sip, put the tea cup aside, and said, "Shen Xinyu has always been steady. She didn't panic when Mount Tai collapsed in front of her. I'm afraid there are other reasons for her sudden temper."
Aunt Ju said politely: "People from the Prince's Mansion came this morning, I'm afraid it's related to this."
"Prince's Mansion?" Shen Zhuoxi raised an eyebrow: "Is the prince going to cancel their marriage?"
"Perhaps, otherwise the eldest lady will definitely not anger the two maids with her temperament." Aunt Ju didn't know what was going on, and said, "This slave just listened to what the two little maids said while eating."
"If it's not our business, let's leave it alone." Shen Zhuoxi walked towards Ruandao and said, "I'm a little tired. Let's rest for a while and then call me for dinner."
Compared with the solemnity of Taishi's Mansion, Prince Yu's Mansion is not much better.
Jing Muling came back from the palace and waited until the sky turned dark and there was no sign of Shen Zhuoxi.
Displeased, he immediately called Zhengyang and asked, "Is the second lady very busy today?"
