Su Wan turned around and asked Xiao Sang: "Is Hui Hua back?"
Xiao Sang said: "Not yet. The business at Jianjia Tower has been good recently. Miss Shi Er is helping there. When she has free time, she goes out to look for some delicious food."
Jianjia Tower has been open for more than half a month, and it is very popular among Mrs. Yancheng and the girls. They like to go there on weekdays when they go shopping, rest, or have gatherings to talk.
Firstly, it is because of the face of Princess Su Wan, and secondly, the scented tea, cakes, soups and snacks there are very popular among ladies and girls, and the environment is relatively safe, so since it opened, it has been full of customers every day, and the business has been very good. Very good.
On the first day of the new year, the store calculated the accounts for half a month and gave Shi Huihua a sum of money. Since it was the first month, some things needed to be prepared and the money was not enough, but in the end it was her I was very happy when I got the first money. No, I just thought about making money every day.
"Then we will arrange for Mr. Ji to stay in the house first and let him rest for a while. I will meet him tomorrow and discuss the matter with him."
"Master, have you gone out?"
"The young master and Mr. Chongshan went to Shiqiao Academy."
Su Wan nodded: "Then just tell Mr. Ji that Mr. Ji and I will meet him tomorrow. Since he is back, he needs to pay a visit to the Shi family. When you go, give him a few words. "
"yes."
Su Wan watched the maid leave and felt a little happy. Ji Yunpu had so much money in his hand and came to her for advice and help. He obviously trusted her. From this point of view, he sincerely wanted to be with Shi Huihua. Together, they treat her as a relative.
The development of this marriage actually made her feel very good.
After all, no one is perfect in this world. Although Ji Yunpu has some bad habits, he is willing to correct them and is somewhat self-aware. Shi Huihua is neither a great beauty nor a very good temper. .
If this goes together, let them figure it out on their own.
As for whether things will go well in the future, no one can say for sure. It's possible to marry anyone. It just looks good now and they like each other. Don't think about the long term in the future.
On that day, Ji Yunpu went to Shi's house as a guest with gifts.
Zhou was so happy when she learned that he would settle down in Guiyan City when he came back this time. She called the neighbor's young man to call Shi Chongshan back, and then called Shi Huixin, who was studying, to come out to entertain the guests.
Then he immediately boiled water and killed the chicken, then went to Shi Hanhai's house and asked for two fish, one braised and the other stewed in soup. Finally, he called Shi Hanhai and Shi Huiqing to come over for dinner.
Shi Chongshan's family has more fruit trees and more chickens. However, in addition to the fruit trees, Shi Hanhai's family also has a pond. Fish farming is the main focus of Shi Hanhai's family. There is also a yard in the backyard of their home, and they raise a lot of fish there. , in winter, many people who want to eat fish come to buy them.
In the evening, Li Lin also went to Shi's house for dinner, and seemed to be in a good mood when he came back.
On the morning of the next day, the couple met Ji Yunpu.
"Except for some private collections of jewelry, I only have silver in my hands. Those jewelry and private collections were left to me by my mother and grandparents. Some of them were collected by me myself, so I kept them. There are also a few others. The shop and the two farms, which were my mother’s dowry, are all in Lanzhou City.”
"Now I have carefully calculated the money in my hand, and it turns out that there are 150,000 taels of silver. Of the 150,000 taels, 120,000 were taken from the Ji family."
The 120,000 taels of silver were chewed out of the Ji family. At that time, the head of the Ji family was livid, and Mrs. Ji almost vomited blood and fainted.
Except for the 120,000 taels, the rest was earned from his mother's dowry from the shop and farm. He was not sensible before, and all the money in his hands was basically spent, and there was nothing left, so this was all he had.
Su Wan raised his eyebrows slightly. The Ji family was considered to be the top family in Lanzhou City. The family wealth was naturally rich. If we really wanted to talk about it, three-tenths of the family wealth might not be more than this 120,000 yuan.
But that's about it. If they want too much, the Ji family may not be willing to risk it anymore.
"The top priority is that Mr. Ji needs to buy a house. Everything else can be done slowly. But if Mr. Ji wants to settle down in Guiyan City, a house is indispensable. I will write to Mrs. Xie later and ask her about the recent developments. Whether there is a house for sale or not, we will decide if it is suitable.”
He definitely needs a place to live, he can't just sit in someone else's house all the time, and he also has to get married.
Ji Yunpu nodded: "Of course, the house must be put first. After the house is decided, I will go back to Lanzhou City to prepare a copy of the ancestors' tablets. It is also needed during the holidays. Worship.”
Li Lin was still holding a book in his hand and said at this moment: "I see that you are not a good businessman. For the rest, just buy some shops, farms and the like. If you want to run it, you can try it yourself. If you really don’t understand, just ask the shopkeeper.”
"Buy some of these first, and keep the remaining money to see if there are any good opportunities to do something else in the future."
"What are your plans in the future? Do you want to take the imperial examination or learn business? Or will your life pass easily like this?"
Ji Yunpu was a little confused: "I really don't know how to do business. I wanted to take the imperial examination before, but my ability is average, and I missed the provincial examination this time. If I still want to take the examination, I have to wait three years."
Ji Yunpu's accident happened because he was rushing back to Lanzhou City to take part in the provincial examination. He was later rescued by Shi Huihua and lost his memory again. Naturally, he missed this year's provincial examination.
Thinking of this, Ji Yunpu was indignant: "That person is really hateful!"
He took a moment to calm down, and then said: "Actually, I don't know what to do now."
Ji Yunpu is still very confused about the future. His previous goal was to get his own things and leave the Ji family. Now that he has left, he doesn't know where to go.
Let's take the imperial examination. Now he has missed it again. He will have to wait three years for the next time. Let's do business. I'm afraid his brain is not very good.
Li Lin said calmly: "Since you don't know what to do, let's learn everything."
Ji Yunpu was stunned for a moment, and then listened to Li Lin said: "Now the academies are also preparing for a holiday. I don't plan for this year. You can choose an academy to go to school next year. Hongyan Academy and Shiqiao Academy in Guiyan City are both very good."
"I can also find someone to teach you about running and managing a shop. As long as you study hard, you can still learn how to run and manage a shop. You just won't make much money, but you still have daily expenses."
"As for the imperial examination, it's up to you to decide your own fate. If you have it, it's better. If you don't, just think of it as reading and literacy. If you didn't study hard before, then you should study again..."
