Concubine's plan

Hearing Aunt Gui's words, Xun Yingju perked up. He just wanted to know the details and avoid something like this happening again in the future. Aunt Gui had an idea and asked quickly:"Auntie, please tell me, if we can really find this person, how can we find this person?" I must make him look good"

"Girl, I'm afraid this person will be difficult to deal with. There is a concubine in this family. I heard that she is very favored by the emperor in the palace."Aunt Gui said with some embarrassment.

"Tell me, whose family it is?"No matter who it is, they must understand the details, otherwise it is not her style to be beaten passively.

Aunt Gui knew the girl's temper and did not hide it, so she told the story in detail. It turned out that the family's surname was Chen, and the head of the family was former He has been serving in Jiangnan for many years as a small county magistrate. His name is Chen Jiran. Because this county magistrate Chen came from a peasant family and his family had no business or land, he had no family background and no one he could control when he became the county magistrate. , the local wealthy landowners did not take him seriously, it can be said that he had tasted the warmth and coldness of the world.

Later, because of his daughter's beauty, he was sent to the palace, and he won the favor of the emperor, and he had the opportunity to be transferred to the capital as a fifth-rank official. Even though In this way, the family's life is still difficult, and the living conditions have not changed much. Every time Mrs. Chen goes out, she will be laughed at by other ladies. Coincidentally, this Mrs. Chen came to the store to choose embroidery ten days ago, and finally because of the price , but didn’t buy anything.

It’s not that there are no such customers, but there are too few who are just as greedy as Mrs. Chen, but don’t take any action. Even if other customers like the embroidery in the store, even if they are shy, they will not act so Obviously, that's why Aunt Jiang made such a guess

"Are these the only doubts?" Xun Yingju was a little disappointed and couldn't help asking immediately.

Aunt Jiang was an old man who came out of the palace. She couldn't see the subtle expression on Xun Yingju's face. She also understood why Xun Yingju was like this, so she hurriedly explained:"Of course not. , after that day, Mrs. Chen sent her people to the store to contact us, saying that she wanted to cooperate with us to run the embroidery workshop, but the old slave refused on the spot."

After hearing this, Xun Yingju immediately understood. A look of disdain appeared on her face unconsciously, and she said:"It's really overestimating one's abilities. There are such stupid people in the world. It's no wonder that Mr. Chen is still like this. He's just a fifth-grade official."

"What the girl said was that the business of Bai's embroidery shop is very good now. Even Miss Qin and Miss Lin will often come to the shop to have a look after receiving their dividends, and they will also bring several valuable friends over. Their friends are all As a very wealthy man, he was very excited when he learned that the two girls had a stake in the store, but he was still rejected by the two girls. It can be seen that anyone who sees such a business will be jealous, but he did not expect that Mrs. Chen is only a five-year-old. Pin Xiaoli's wife dared to have such an idea, but she was not sure whether she had sent someone to instruct her on this matter."Aunt Jiang's words are still very pertinent. There is no evidence now, everything is just speculation. If someone is really wronged, it will not be easy for the girl.

"Well, let's wait until Master Jing Zhaoyin has reviewed this matter before we discuss it. I have another more important matter here that we need to discuss together."After saying that, Xun Yingju showed a worried look on her face.

"Whatever the girl wants, just tell the slave to do it."Aunt Gui has a proud temperament. She rarely pays attention to the masters in the palace. Since she followed Xun Yingju, she has devoted herself to helping Xun Yingju take care of her business. She truly admires Xun Yingju's methods. Compared with The palace only knew the scheming masters, and she liked her current life very much.

Xun Yingju didn't know what Aunt Jiang was thinking, she only thought about the embroidery in Bai's embroidery shop, so she said:"Originally, the embroidery in the shop The sales volume of the products is very good. The embroidery ladies do not produce many embroidery products every month. Now that we have encountered such a disaster, I am afraid that the finished embroidery products will be more difficult to make in the future. I want to hire an embroidery worker in the shop. Good embroiderers go to Zhuangzi to teach the little girls how to embroider. After they learn it, they can not only supply the store's sales, but also expand the store's business."

"The girl's idea is very good. The little girls in the village are all bought by the girl with money. With the deed of prostitution in hand, she is not afraid that they will spread the skills and can continue to teach new little girls. In this way, Bai Bai The supply of goods for Shi Embroidery Shop has been solved."Aunt Jiang said with excitement.

Seeing Aunt Jiang's eyes shining with eagerness to try, Xun Yingju knew that Aunt Jiang couldn't wait. If possible, she would realize this plan now. Seeing Aunt Jiang Xun Yingju like this There was also a warmth in my heart. I felt that Aunt Jiang really regarded Bai's Embroidery Workshop as her own business.

"Auntie is so happy, does she want to make arrangements now?"Xun Yingju said with a smile

"Naturally, this is a major matter related to the store's business. Now that the madam is pregnant, it is not convenient to teach the little girls. Aunt Yun has to take care of the madam's health and teach the little girls to embroider at the same time. I am afraid she will be busy too. Don't be ridiculous. Please invite the two embroidery ladies to teach the little girls. It will not delay their embroidery and can bring out many disciples. Why not?"Aunt Jiang said with a smile.

Xun Yingju naturally knew this truth, but she still asked with some worry:"Is there any embroiderer who is willing to go to Zhuangzi to endure hardship?"

"Don't worry about this, girl, as long as you pay more for the work, the embroiderer in the shop doesn't come from a wealthy family, otherwise she wouldn't have to come out to be an embroiderer."Aunt Jiang said confidently.

This really made sense. Xun Yingju said no more. The two discussed some details, and Aunt Jiang went to arrange the matter.

Xun Yingju thought about it for a while. She didn't go to Youranju, so she stopped by to take a look when she had time. She got on the carriage and leaned on the carriage with her eyes closed to relax, but her mind did not stop and she kept thinking. The sound of rain and clouds on the side made the girl tired, so she behaved Sitting aside, trying not to make a sound so as not to disturb the girl.

Nowadays, the business of Youranju in the capital is getting better and better, and the dignitaries in the capital often think of Youranju, a family of Youranju, whenever they go out to eat and drink. It is far from being able to meet the current market demand. It is necessary to open another branch as soon as possible. Otherwise, the service will not be able to keep up and many customers will be lost. Fortunately, she bought a lot of shops at the beginning, and Shen Yan has already completed the second store. The shop was renovated.

Speaking of Shen Yan, Xun Yingju suddenly realized that she hadn't seen this man for a long time. He was usually either at home or in the shop. Recently, he was nowhere to be seen and she didn't know what to do. Okay, thinking of this, she asked.
