I Have No Qualifications, The System Asked Me To Marry A Wife To Practice

The documents and messages have all turned to ashes.

Although the mysterious person said that the matter has been resolved, Chu Shen, who almost got involved in a storm he didn't know about, still decided to play it safe.

Yu Yazhi was brought in.

"How is the purchase of the house in the eastern part of the city going?" Chu Shen asked.

Yu Yazhi replied, "Master Chu, please rest assured, the house has been purchased and it is Hengyuan in Jubao Street."

Chu Shen was somewhat surprised, "I remember, that's the retirement home of Boss Hong from Hongfenji, why was it transferred to me?"

Yu Yazhi smiled and said, "Master Hong has obtained the distribution rights of Yufu Lu in Yongzhou and other places. It's a time of great enthusiasm for him, so he no longer thinks about retirement. He said that although Hengyuan is good, it is not as important as Master Chu's kindness to the Hong family. Since Master Chu urgently needs a place to live, he decided to give it to you as a way of expressing gratitude."

In order to gain momentum, Chu Shen took out Yufu Lu and painted a big picture for the people of Nanping City, from government officials to wealthy merchants, from ordinary people to farmers, almost everyone was covered.

The formula and manufacturing workshop are kept in his hands;

Landlords and gentry in the surrounding areas of Nanping City have set aside dedicated land to serve as raw material planting bases;

Far Xiang Tang and other related industries have joined in, establishing a chain organization and allocating their respective sales areas, preparing to expand into the market;

The government yamen escorts and supervises tax collection.

Regardless of the workshop, planting base, sales, transportation, and other aspects, a large number of manual labor is required. The landless farmers and unemployed people who were originally despised by various parties in Nanping City have obtained job opportunities, and the hidden dangers to public security in Nanping City have also been reduced...

It can be said that Chu Shen, through various means, has brought a small capital shock to Nanping City. He has surpassed the existing level of productivity integration and adjustment of production relations in Nanping City, completing a basic industrial upgrade, so that everyone can make money, everyone can profit, and everyone can have upward mobility.

The common people are grateful for his life-saving grace, the landlords and gentry thank him for bringing them money, the urban business class sees their potential power, and the government admires him for solving the problems of management and development.

Even the well-dressed envoys from the capital were frustrated because they couldn't do anything to him, although they were quickly taken care of by someone else.

Hong, the owner of Hongfenji, is one of the most grateful people to him. If Chu Shen didn't bring him into the chain alliance, he knew very well that his business would soon be destroyed by the emerging interest groups.

The transaction with Hengyuan is both a gratitude and a protection fee. Hong, the boss who has been in business for a long time, knows very well who his benefactor is now.

Chu Shen disdains taking advantage of this, with the system in hand, unlocking some new postures with his concubines may lead to achievements and receive substantial rewards.

So... he still accepted it.

He can compensate in other ways, but if he doesn't accept it, Hong may not feel at ease, and it may easily lead to trouble.

This is not the time to disperse people's hearts.

Since Hengyuan is a retirement garden carefully built by Hong over the years, with complete facilities, they can move in with just their bags. The Chu family doesn't have many people and doesn't need to move much. Chu Shen immediately made the decision to move.

The concubines who received the news did not refuse, but rather were quite excited.

For the past few days, more than a dozen people have been living in the house in Yangliu Lane, which appears to be quite crowded. Especially when Chu Shen is practicing martial arts, the gentle moans of Zhao Chulu and other women always disturb the pregnant Ning Xiangyue, causing her to toss and turn and unable to control herself.

Zhao Chulu and the other women were shy and hesitant to speak. Whenever they had meals or gatherings together, they would always be teased.

"What's this, Chulu? How long have you managed to hold on today?" "Chuanshan, can you hold on three times now?" It was like public humiliation.

Moving to a new house was great. They moved into a big mansion and lived separately in their own courtyards. Out of sight, out of mind. They could shout as loudly as they wanted without worrying about others hearing them clearly.

Everyone happily packed up their personal belongings and sat in the carriage, heading towards the east of the city.

When they arrived, the gate of Hengyuan was already open, and there were maids, servants, and even the steward waiting.

When Hu Chuanshan and Zhao Chulu entered the Chu family's gate, their respective families had prepared generous dowries, including not only wealth but also many servants.

However, the Chu family's previous house was small and couldn't accommodate so many people. There were only one trusted maid for each of the two daughters, and two kitchen maids who moved to the Chu family. The rest were still taken care of by the Zhao and Hu families.

Now that the Chu family had a new mansion, these people were sent over.

In addition, Boss Hong was very particular. When Hengyuan changed hands, the staff inside were also kept and given to Chu Shen. When Chu Shen and his group arrived, there were more than sixty servants in Hengyuan alone.

Seeing a large group of servants, maids, guards, kitchen maids, dancers, musicians, and others bowing to him under the guidance of the male and female stewards, Chu Shen deeply experienced the decadence of the feudal landlord class.

"Are there too many people?" He had no experience and asked Hu Chuanshan and Zhao Chulu, who were more experienced.

Ning Xiangyue and the Chen sisters couldn't be relied upon. They came from small families and had never seen such a scene before. At this moment, they were barely maintaining their composure, pretending to be mute behind him.

Hu Chuanshan replied softly, "Husband, it's not too many.

Hengyuan is a large place, not counting pavilions, towers, and gardens. Just the residential courtyards alone number twelve, each requiring at least one caretaker. If someone lives there, two additional staff members are needed for rotation.

With a large number of family members, the kitchen cannot be understaffed. Eight people are responsible for feeding dozens of people, and there is still a shortage. Not to mention, in addition to three meals a day, there must also be afternoon tea, late-night snacks, tea for guests, and special occasions such as holidays and events, which require hiring people from outside.

Safety is very important in such a large place. The eight guards left by Boss Hong, plus the four sent by my family and Zhao's family, only amount to twelve and can only guard the outer area, not including the residence of the women, which is quite stretched.

My husband is a person of status, and even county officials and other important figures are often seen. Even if he doesn't go out often, for gatherings and such, the house must have singers, dancers, musicians, and others to create an atmosphere. The few left by Master Hong are probably not enough.

With so many people, there is a need for managers. We have one male and one female steward, but they can only take care of the house. The shops and workshops outside the house require additional staff.

In addition, there is the firewood room. How can we manage without someone taking care of firewood and hot water? Just the daily bathing of the sisters is already a troublesome matter.

And there's more..."

Chu Shen's face twitched as he listened. It turns out that even with so many people, it's just a simplified version of the luxurious lifestyle of wealthy families...

Of course, the reason why wealthy households nowadays have so many people is related to the backwardness of social productivity and the scarcity of social supply. Without professional service providers, they naturally have to keep people to do various things themselves.

"Then let you and Chulu take care of these matters. Also, bring Xiangyue, Xiuer, and Ying'er along and let them learn more. It's always good to have more knowledge."

Feeling extremely troubled, Chu Shen simply pushed the responsibility onto others and became a hands-off manager.
