Fight the Giants

  Huo Xi took a few girls for a walk, many people recognized them as people from the Mu family, and surrounded them. Xiao Shang and Xiao Dei stuffed things into their arms desperately.

   I was blocked on the road.

  Many merchants in Kunming City, the Han people who came here to do business, all migrated here when the old master built the city, thinking of coming here to seek a living, and slowly opened up the situation and took root here.

   They all remember the old Hou Ye, and they are extremely respectful to the people in the Mu Mansion.

   "Don't plug it, don't plug it, if you don't want money, I won't dare to ask for it." Huo Xi felt that the vendors were too enthusiastic and a little overwhelmed.

   "It's not worth anything, Mrs. Shizi, just accept it." "Yes, it's all our kindness, accept it."

   "No, no, this can't be accepted. Vanilla, give me the money."

   Seeing something worth a few pennies, Mrs. Shizi insisted on throwing down the silver coin, so how could everyone accept it.

   Seeing that Mrs. Shizi insisted on giving money, she accepted it at a small price. Huo Xi was grateful in his heart, and silently wrote it down in his heart.

  Finally squeezed out of the crowd, and by the way shook off their tails, and entered the Four Seas Bank, Huo Xi and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

   "I didn't expect the merchants on the street to be so enthusiastic."

   Vanilla slumped on the chair, panting heavily. The vendors were so enthusiastic that they almost couldn't walk around them. Today they were modified, and the vendors still recognized them.

   Fortunately, at the end of the madam's slap in the face, Jin Chan escaped from the follower. "Is Madam in there?" Vanilla turned her head to the backyard.

  The clerk of the Universal Bank nodded: "Yes, the boss is talking with the shopkeepers inside."

  In the backyard of the Four Seas Bank, Huo Xi flipped through the ledger and nodded. I didn't expect that there would be so much money exchanged in the southwestern border area, which is no less than that of the capital's main store.

"Although this is located in the southwestern border, there are many small countries and tribes on the border. In the southwest, there are Chenla, Siam, Deleng, Yanxiang, Baihua, and Champa. Fourteen tribes, the tea-horse market is very prosperous, and the cloth, utensils, and medicinal materials brought in from all over the place also go here, and our bank has a lot of money transactions every day..."

  Huo Xi looked at the account book with elation.

  She was a businessman before she was the wife of the prince of the Duke's Mansion, and she is still a businessman full of money. Who is not happy to see the white silver?

  I am very satisfied with the operation of the local bank, "Are you ready for the gold and silver that you have prepared before?"

   "Yes, there are, all have been prepared according to the owner's instructions, and they are all placed in the warehouse, waiting for the owner to take them at any time."

   "Very good. Put it in the library first, and I will ask someone to pick it up when it is needed."

   "Yes. Is the boss going to do business?"

  The Dong family has been in the capital all along, and it is rare to go to Yunnan. As the wife of the eldest son, he is unwilling to stay in the mansion properly. I am afraid that there is some plan for these repeated big moves.

  Gen Qi raised his eyes to look at Huo Xi, this was the first time he saw his wife. He was originally the general accountant of all the young master's properties, but was asked by his wife to manage the Four Seas Bank, and ordered him to be in charge of the six branches in Yunnan.

   Madam, she has a keen eye, he just likes to deal with money, and he likes to count gold and silver.

   "Yes, next is a big move..."

  Gen Qi was a little excited after hearing this, and rubbed his hands secretly, "The prince still has many capable people under his command. If Madam needs them, I can call them to use."

   "Okay, I will have to trouble them when the time comes."

   "What's the trouble, they can't wait to go to Madam to listen to orders."

  Huo Xi lingered in the Four Seas Bank for a long time, and then went out through the back door to meet with the stewards of several other places, and then went to see the big courtyard he just bought.

   Seeing that the interior is arranged according to her requirements, I am very satisfied.

  Stayed outside until the sun was setting, sat down at a local specialty restaurant by the Dianchi Lake, had a hearty and delicious dinner, and then went back.

  The next day, Huo Xi's many arrangements were announced.

  In the eastern suburbs, the residential area of ​​the military family members of the garrison in Kunming City.

   "Let Xiduo go to work in the back street and take care of lunch? Did Mrs. Shizi tell you?" Granny Zhi looked at the visitor with suspicion.

Vanilla nodded: "Yeah, didn't you see me standing next to our wife that day? I am the housekeeper's mother next to my wife. I grew up with my wife. Don't worry, I won't lie to you. Our wife has been busy for a long time. God, this is the time to settle the matter, and I am afraid that everyone will not believe me, so I specially ordered me to inform you."

   "No, no, it's not that I don't believe in Madam." Grandma Zhi waved her hands hastily.

Looking down at the granddaughter leaning against her legs, she saw her timidly clutching the hem of her clothes, worried in her heart, "My granddaughter has never seen anything in the world, she... madam really wants her to do work? Didn't she shout of me?"

   Xiduo is only eight years old, what can she do? She had received the monthly money for two months before, and she had two taels of silver. Can Xiduo earn back one tael a month? How about a lunch?

"Whether you can earn it or not depends on her. Our wife said the other day that we don't have fixed wages. We get more for more work, and less for less work. Those who are diligent, can understand orders, and do things carefully and conscientiously. Those who are lazy take more."

   "Oh, don't worry, my granddaughter is obedient and sensible, quick and diligent in doing things. She is not as tall as a stove, so she helps me up and down at home, and she also does the work in the field."

   strongly recommended her granddaughter, for fear that Vanilla would not want her.

   and asked unconfidently, "Do you really want her? Do you still have a meal at noon? Will you take her back by car at night?"

"Yes, if you don't worry, when we send a car to pick them up tomorrow, you can go and have a look. There is not only one child, our wife is afraid that these children will not be safe when they go home from work in the evening, so we specially made a car The extended carriage is specially used to pick up these little girls and women."

   "Okay, your wife is really thoughtful! That's fine, I will let her wait for you to pick me up early tomorrow." Grandma Zhi was excited.

   Searched around the house, but in the end there was nothing to give away, so I packed all the dishes that the grandparents and grandchildren wanted to eat and asked the herbs to take them away.

   "No, no, you can keep it for eating. Hard work is the best reward for our wife."

   The two declined.

   "Let's go." Granny Zhi held the dishes that Vanilla didn't want, and led a pair of grandchildren to wave at the door.

   "Grandma, can I also work with Mrs. Shizi?" Xiye asked with her head raised.

  The mother next to Mrs. just said that she will take care of a meal at noon, and I don’t know if it can make people full. Xi Ye licked his lips, he really wanted to have a full meal.

  Grandma Zhi touched her grandson's head, feeling bitter.

   "You still have to obey the order in the guard, and you can't go out. If your elder sister can earn one hundred and eighty yuan a month outside, it will be a great supplement to the family, and we will be able to have enough food in the future!"

   Xiduo nodded desperately: "Well, grandma, I will definitely do a good job with my wife! I will earn a lot of copper coins so that grandma and my brother can have enough food every day!"

  She must have earned more than a hundred and eighty coins!

   Madam said that the more you do, the more you get. She must work hard and work hard! As for a meal at noon, she must be full, so she won't have to eat when she goes home at night.

   In this way, two meals can be saved for the family. Grandma and brother can also eat more.

   Xiduo stretched her neck to look and look at the alley outside, wishing she could hear the sound of a carriage coming to pick her up for work.
