Orion's pretty daughter-in-law

Chapter 218
The second bedroom and the third bedroom cannot live in the backyard of the Yanyunsi Mansion with the big one, but the house they are looking for is not too far away, just for this reason, the small house is not very grand, but it is not as good as they are in the upper house. Spacious Creek Village living.

It is precisely because the living conditions are far from those of the big house, that they don't want to sit still. The big house has Yun Chengyao to go to the official career, and their second and third rooms have done a good job in business. The Yun family wants money and power. , Don’t you think you can do whatever you want?Happy like a fairy!

In the back house of the Office of the Salt Transport Officer, when Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Wang came over, Mrs. Li Shuxiu and Mrs. Zhang were counting the value of the gifts recently sent to them. Look at the gold and silver jewelry and pure silver, the complete silver ingot, and someone even stuffed them with a silver ticket. Before they came to the county, they had never seen what a silver ticket looked like in their entire life!

Even though the old lady had counted more than once a few days ago, every time someone came to give gifts, she would still take out what had been counted before and count it again, and she never tired of doing it.

As soon as the two entered the door, they saw a stack of bank notes in the old lady's hand, and their eyes were red with jealousy. The 1 taels given by the Duke's Mansion in the cash box at home are banknotes that cannot be exchanged by ordinary banks, but they are all 20 taels, 50 taels after all, and there are hundreds of taels of silver in total!
If other gifts are included, the total assets currently owned by the Yun family are more than enough for them to use as a storefront!

Mrs. Wang couldn't wait to mention their plan to open a shop. The old lady and Mrs. Zhang paused at the same time. Looking at them, he asked, "Have you ever asked how much it costs to open a shop in the city?"

The eyes of the two daughters-in-law lit up, and there was a show! ?
Mrs. Zhao was short of breath, and hurriedly said: "We made some inquiries before, and depending on the size of the shop and the quality of the location, the price can be cheap or expensive, but on average, it is 50 taels of silver a month."

"50 taels a month!?" Mrs. Zhang couldn't help raising her voice, "So expensive?"

Mrs. Wang curled her lips and said: "Sister-in-law, don't you look at where this is. This is the county seat. An ordinary shop in Xinglin Town costs at least two or thirty taels of silver a month. It's still a shop with a small location and a small front. If you want to find a location with a lot of personal traffic and good business, you can’t get it without 30 taels of silver.”

Mrs. Zhao clearly did not raise a higher price because she was afraid that the old lady would be frightened by the price.

Mrs. Zhang said with a sullen face: "That's even more outrageous. How can our family have so much money to open such an expensive shop? Don't look at how many people give us money and think that our conditions are good. In fact, Cheng Yao wants to be If he is a successful official, he must show filial piety to his superiors, otherwise it will not be easy to get promoted in the future." This is what she found out after many inquiries recently.

I thought that being an official would bring me happiness, but I didn't expect others to please them. They still have to please officials of a higher rank than Cheng Yao. Money basically goes in with the left hand and out with the right. Thinking about it, it hurts a lot.

Now the second and third bedrooms still want to ask for money?It's unbearable!

But the old lady said: "Opening a shop is not a small matter. You women and other people don't care about it. Call the second and third children over."

Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Wang are not too troublesome. They are not afraid to call everyone together to discuss it, but they are afraid that the old lady will veto their ideas without even giving them a chance.

Mrs. Wang immediately said: "I'm going to call someone!" Then, fearing that the old lady would repent, she left in a hurry.

After a while, Yun Deshun and Yun Dexi came over, and other family members, including Yun Chengyao, who was looking through the accounts of the Salt Transport Secretary, were also called. The matter was brought up again.

Yun De said along the way: "It would be great if we can continue to do the previous business. Now there is no land to grow in the city, and it is not easy for us to go out to work. We are afraid of embarrassing Cheng Yao. If we open a shop ourselves, there will be no such troubles." gone."

Although they are all doing business to make money, opening a shop and being the boss, but setting up a stall on the street gives people a completely different feeling.

Although Yun Dexi felt that no matter which one he had, he had to get up early and work late at night, but with a shop, the two of them could have an independent way of making money, and the expenses were not small anywhere in the city. He didn't have much money, and he was ashamed to say that he was a family member of the trustworthy Yanyun Governor Siyun, so he naturally agreed with it.

As the boss, Yun Dechun didn't speak at this time. As a real farmer, he felt uncomfortable when he had no land to plant. The idea of ​​two bedrooms and three bedrooms can only be kept silent.

Anyway, what they say is actually useless, and it depends on what the old lady means in the end.

Father?Mr. Yun basically doesn't care about these things. He used to look through the books he learned when he was young, pretending to be learned, but now he is really an old man, and he spends all day in his small study reading the books he left behind. Recently, he even learned how to play chess. His chess skills are not very good, but he likes to play with the old servants in the yamen who know a little bit. He doesn't know that the opponent is hindered by his status. After the world came down, the old man built up confidence in his chess skills, and felt that he really deserved to be able to hand over such an upstanding grandson as Yun Chengyao, and he was also extremely talented...

At this moment, the old man can only be filled with impatience of being disturbed to study chess skills, who cares about their affairs.

Anyway, the old wife is in charge of the money, so it doesn't matter if he is around or not.

Just as she was thinking about it, Li Shuxiu interrupted the persuasion of Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Wang who kept talking about how to set up a shop and what are the benefits of opening a shop, and said: "Your sister-in-law was right before, the money in the family has to be kept Cheng Yao can't use all of them to open shops."

One sentence changed the faces of the people in the two rooms who had a lot of expectations, including the juniors who were not qualified to intervene at this time, Yun Chengji and Yun Chenghui couldn't help but want to speak, but they definitely didn't have Zhao and Wang Urgent.

Wang said angrily: "Mother! You can't always be so partial to the big house! Yes, Cheng Yao may need a lot of management now, but it's impossible to spend all the money in the family, right? If this is the case, he will become an official. The family can't get rich yet, so why bother?" If they didn't think they could ascend to heaven with chickens and dogs and make a fortune together, why did they expect Yun Chengyao to be an official so much before?

"Sister-in-law, feel your conscience and tell me, Cheng Yao can get to this day without the help of people from our two rooms? We also have a part in the money for his education at home!"

"Why are you bringing this up now." Zhang said dissatisfied: "I didn't say that I didn't have your efforts, Cheng Yao will remember your goodness, and you want to come to the city with us, didn't we say nothing?"

Wang twitched the corner of her lips mockingly, but didn't say anything?That's why we insisted on following, obviously you made all kinds of excuses at the beginning not to let us follow!
"Sister-in-law, you have become a real official wife because of Cheng Yao, and the family members of the official family are the only ones who can get in touch. Our two rooms are far behind. My second sister-in-law and I can only get in touch with the wives of those merchants. The status of the merchant is low, but they are rich! Those who open their mouths and shut up spend hundreds of taels of silver casually and don’t take it seriously, so we can only fart on one side and dare not let a single one go. Obviously we can be regarded as the family members of the official family , but in a daze in front of those merchants’ wives, who would believe it? Even if it’s to not embarrass Cheng Yao, why don’t we stay idle all the time? Do some small business, even if the money at home is real It's all spent, and if Cheng Yao needs to take care of it, we can also provide some money to help, and the big house is not without any benefits."

Mrs. Zhao gritted her teeth and said, "Mother, sister-in-law, if you really can't bear the money, it's a big deal, the people in our two rooms will treat it as a loan from you, and return the money as soon as we get back the money." you."

Mrs. Wang felt pain when she heard it, but as the saying goes, you can't bear to let your child not be tied to a wolf. Besides, according to their estimation, the capital may cost a lot, but they don't know how many times they can earn back in the future. No loss!
But she was a thief, and Mrs. Zhang was not stupid. She glanced at her and didn't agree or disagree directly. She only asked: "Since you want your mother to come to get the money, when the shop opens, whose name will be put under it?"

Wang took it for granted: "At that time, sister-in-law, you are definitely not suitable for business. Naturally, people from our two rooms will take care of it and put it under our name."

"No!" The old lady who had been silent for a long time finally spoke, but it would be better not to speak, the words made the faces of the two rooms look very long.

"It's OK to open a shop."

Huh?Everyone was surprised, what a turn of events?
The old lady then said: "But the shop must be put under the name of Dafang."

"!" Wang's face was turning green with anger, and Yun Deshun and Yun Dexi's expressions were also quite ugly.

"Mom! How can that be done! We are going to run the shop, what happened to the result? We helped Dafang make money, but in the end we can't ask for anything?" Really, why did they bother to come here! ?

"Brothers and sisters, that's not what they said. They are all from our own family. What helps us make money, isn't it all the family's money?" It's about his own interests. Turning around, he said: "Otherwise, let me see it this way, my family, don't say whether to borrow money or not, just divide the shares into two for the big house, the second room and the third room, one for the big room, and one for you." , just like the Liangpi workshop in the village, how about it? Then you won’t be afraid that you won’t get any benefits, right?”
