Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 550 This is the measure
You are kind-hearted, and you think that no matter what the other party's purpose is, as long as they do you a favor, you must repay them with a spring of gratitude, right?

He is even more stubborn than the hopelessly biased old man. He finally changes after experiencing natural disasters and man-made tragedies, but returns to his old ways when he is in a comfortable environment.

Do you know what people like you are called?

Come on, why don't you say something like "A dog will always eat shit"? Zhou Banxia glanced at Gu Wenxuan, who was asking for advice but trying to hold back his laughter, with a half-smile on his face.

Are you being stubborn?
Gu Wenxuan stretched out his right hand.

Please continue.

say what?
She can say that she is not extremely smart, but she is definitely not stupid. As a smart person, the most important condition for survival is not to be kind or cruel, but to know when to stop.

You must always understand your identity and position, and know what you should do in each situation to be more beneficial to yourself.

We must always keep in mind other people's bottom line and not cross it. As long as others have no ill intentions, respect each other and do not actively hurt others.

This is the sense of propriety, it has nothing to do with gratitude.

Zhou Banxia hesitated for a moment and cleared his throat. "It's not that I'm kind or soft-hearted, nor is it that it's hard to change one's nature, it's this person.

Life is not easy, life is too hard, and days are too tiring. I must think more about happy things. Think about who has helped me in the past, and I will feel very good.

Although I have already returned the silver note of 1,000 taels that Madam Gao gave me, I cannot erase the kindness of this old lady.

From giving me the dowry and giving me silver, she also reminded me to hold my uncle back when he showed up, and asked you and Dajiang to worship my uncle as your teacher, etc.

Regardless of the purpose, I do owe her a favor, and the Eldest Young Lady was the person she assigned to me without having to go through the First Madam. How can I put it?

Just as my aunt said, the reason why Mrs. Gao gave these two components to her eldest granddaughter-in-law and asked me to connect with her eldest granddaughter-in-law was because she wanted the third generation to have good relations.

As for money, for a family like the Gao family, a few tens of thousands of taels of silver is actually nothing. The Yunkelai chain alone is a huge amount.

Let’s not talk about the faraway places, but just the guests from the province, the prefecture and the county come here. The house is always full every day. How much does a signature dish cost?

It is a high-end restaurant with a one-stop service of food and accommodation. Anyone who eats a free meal at Yunkelai will make a lot of money in a year. Our pancreas workshop cannot compare to that."

That’s not necessarily true. Why don’t you tell us how much a piece of soap costs?

Aren’t these three companies helping you distribute your products all over the country in disguised form?

In time, Yunke will be nothing.

Thinking of the New Year gift package that his wife will soon launch, Gu Wenxuan couldn't help but feel secretly happy for Zhou Banxia who was making others look more impressive.

“Besides, as they are the founding heroes of the same batch as the Zhou Mansion, they are also military heroes. Military generals are bound to be violent in battles, and their Gao Mansion has not suffered the disasters that the Zhou Mansion has.

Just think about how amazing the ancestral property returned by the Zhou family is, and you can imagine how deep the Gao family's foundation is. As the direct descendant of the Gao family, it goes without saying that his family background must exceed that of his uncle.

Compared to money, they will first look at the other party's greatest value. For example, from the gift sent by you, the first in the Intermediate Court, I can see how much the Gao family values ​​me.

In the eyes of the Gao family and others, my investment potential has risen to a new level since my uncle adopted me as the only daughter of the Zhou family.

A scholar is very insignificant in their class, but you are one of the top three in this year's imperial examination, and you have your uncle, a gentleman, behind you, so your value is naturally different.

It is no exaggeration to say that the two most outstanding young masters of the Gao family, even though they are already juren, are inferior to you in all aspects except their birth.

They worshipped great scholars as their teachers, but their ultimate goal was to enter the official career. How could they compare to worshipping your uncle who served as an official for several years and then retired at the right time? Behind them was Mr. Gao, the head of the Ministry of Personnel. In fact, having such a big figure in the family as an official in the court was not without disadvantages.

It is extremely advantageous when one first enters the official career, and it is easy to get help. But when one reaches the fifth rank, it becomes difficult. For someone like Lord Gao, it is impossible for him to be without an opponent.

If he advances, it will be fine. He will either be the first or second minister in the cabinet, and the next generation of Gao's family will not be suppressed. If he retreats, even if he is not suppressed, there will be big problems.

Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimps. His Gao family has always been a fat sheep in the eyes of others. Unlike his uncle, he takes a step back and the sky is wide open. Not fighting is fighting.

Think about it, even a rookie like me has thought of these things, so how could Mr. Gao, who is in a high position, not know what the biggest crisis of the family is. "

That's why the gentleman said that as long as old lady Gao was around, the Gao family would be worry-free. Gu Wenxuan nodded at Zhou Banxia to show that her analysis was correct.

carry on.

“As for you, in the eyes of Madam Gao and Mr. Gao, and even in the eyes of Mr. Gao, I am half a member of the Gao family, and your investment potential is much greater.

First of all, most people may not be able to find out the list of the huge dowry in my name, but there is no problem with Mr. Gao. Even if he doesn’t ask, Madam Gao will find out and tell him.

It is no exaggeration to say that how my uncle's family treated me, whether it was true or false, could not be hidden from Madam Gao. She was not the mistress of an ordinary wealthy family.

In terms of vision, pattern, strategy and courage, among all the strong women I have met so far, no one can compare to this little old lady.

Secondly, your uncle’s only two disciples are you and Dajiang, and your eldest brother and his two brothers are the legitimate sons of the same mother, which means you have five brothers-in-law.

Scarcity makes things valuable. My eldest brother and the others get along very well with you. The number of times you exchange letters through the post station cannot hide how close your relationship is.

Finally, and most importantly, you take your uncle as your master, and you are given two masters who are at the top of the Confucian scholars. This is the most amazing thing.

You know the Donglin Party in history, they controlled the imperial court. Oh, that's off topic. What I meant is that you have the invisible connections in the literary circle."

Gu Wenxuan couldn't help but laugh out loud, shaking the large account book in his hand, "Then let's deal with it based on 15,000. Don't look at this. Is it invalid?"

"I still want you to turn it over. Isn't there a saying like that?"

"One person's plan is long, two people's plan is short?"

"Right! No, it's the other way around." Zhou Banxia couldn't help laughing and patted him on the shoulder. "It's you who has to make sure in the end. You are a little smarter than me."

"So many?" Gu Wenxuan pinched his fingernails and looked at her teasingly, "I'm so honored that there are times when I'm a little smarter than you."

"Be serious."

"Let's get back to the point?"

"The enemy."

"The limit is 11,000 taels, and 80% is 44,000. Don't exceed 50,000 this year. Otherwise, if the production doubles next year, more than 100,000 and less than 100,000 will be two different concepts."

"Turn to the last page. I folded a page. Look at the total amount on that page."

"As expected of my wife, she is so smart!"

"You're amazing. You know the answer before you even open the page?"
