The Shen family is really a wealthy family, and this dress of silk and satin makes it hard not to be wealthy.
Song Che looked at the bronze mirror again and again, but he couldn't help it. A handsome person would look good in anything he wore, but his short hair was a bit out of place.
Song Che was walking in the courtyard of the house. When he saw the servants and maids coming and going, they all smiled and said hello:
"Hello, uncle!"
"Hey, okay, okay, Gude Maoning, Gude Maoning..."
"Hehehe... Why does this uncle look so stupid?"
…
The father-in-law, Shen Tian, is slightly fatter, has a kind face, and has bright eyes. After all, he is the head of the family and full of courage.
Mother-in-law Zhou Yumei, although she is middle-aged, her charm is still there. No wonder she can give birth to her daughter so beautiful, but her posture is a bit noble and her eyes are contemptuous.
Song Che served tea to the two of them, and the family moved to the dining room to have breakfast.
Jiangnan people's breakfast is small in quantity but diverse in style. More than a dozen dishes are more vegetarian than meat.
Song Che hasn't had a bite of rice since time travel, and his stomach is already growling. He doesn't pay attention to chewing slowly, he only knows how to eat. Anyway, he is eating soft rice, and if he doesn't eat, he will eat in vain.
"I heard that my son-in-law has lost his memory, but he still remembers his name?" The father-in-law hesitated for a long time before asking.
Yes, you don’t even know the person’s name, so you just kidnap them and use them as a barbarian! If it weren't for your daughter's beauty, I would have run away with the bucket!
Song Che said casually: "Song Che, clear and clear."
The father-in-law hesitated for a while, then smiled and said seriously: "This... uh, Song Che, once you enter the Shen family, you are a member of the Shen family——
As the saying goes, "No matter how stupid a donkey is, it can learn how to grind after being pushed twice." Our Shen family has been in business for generations, so you have to learn to help a little. You don't need to be too knowledgeable, just do things according to the rules. "
Song Che nodded in agreement and continued to eat the steamed buns. It turns out that ancient steamed buns were so delicious...
The Shen family may not know that Song Che was a top student who graduated from the University of Economics and Business during his lifetime. He was forced to resign because of a quarrel with his boss over a big project worth 100 million yuan. He felt depressed, climbed a mountain alone, made a mistake in time travel, and ended up here. .
"Wenjun, after breakfast, you take Song Che around the shop to familiarize him with our business. We will also bring him to the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce next month," Shen Tian said.
"Ah?" Shen Wenjun looked in disbelief: "Dad, are you joking? At the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce, all the big businessmen from Jiangnan will be present. He... looks silly when you look at him. We won't be afraid of annoying people if we take him there. Is it a joke?"
Shen Tian said solemnly: "Bringing a boy is better than taking your own daughter every year."
Shen Wenjun wanted to speak, but stopped. He wanted to speak, but stopped again. He could only bite his lips, with sadness hidden in his eyes.
In ancient times, especially in the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, young girls stayed at home and stayed in their boudoirs. There are very few and extremely difficult women who are truly inspiring and successful in their careers.
Feudal tradition has killed too many conveniences for women and given them too many tragedies.
Song Che looked at Shen Wenjun and felt sympathy for a moment. The stronger the person, the more fragile he is.
"What are you looking at! Eat your steamed buns!" Shen Wenjun noticed Song Che's gaze, picked up a small steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth.
The mother-in-law said something at this time, "Let me tell you, neither of them should go. You can go alone. The most important thing right now is to spread the branches of the Shen family! Aunt Li, who helps in the kitchen, is younger than me." At two years old, my grandson can stand up and walk——"
"Snapped!"
Shen Wenjun slapped his chopsticks on the table, "I'm full!" With a gloomy face, he got off the table as if fleeing.
"Look, you've made your daughter angry again. Having a baby doesn't happen in a day or two. You can't be in a hurry. Take your time!" the father-in-law scolded.
The mother-in-law was not to be outdone: "You don't have to give birth to a child. Of course you are speaking lightly. From preparing for pregnancy, begging for a child, carrying a fetus, raising the fetus, delivering the baby, and confinement, which one does not take much effort and which one does not suffer?"
The father-in-law muttered: "You are so understanding, but I have never seen you give birth to a son..."
"Okay, Shen Tian, you heartless person, finally spoke your mind, didn't you? No wonder you want to take a concubine. It turns out...it turns out you have disliked me for a long time!"
"Oh, madam, don't say this in front of your son-in-law. When did I say I wanted to take a concubine?"
"I'm...full too."
Seeing that the situation was not going well, Song Che threw away his chopsticks, quickly got off the table and fled the dining room.
…
Song Che asked all the servants in Shen's house and finally found his "original equipment" in the utility room.
He quickly dug into his trouser pocket and found that the cigarettes and lighter were not missing. He was so happy that he couldn't wait to light one and took a deep breath.
Nicotine quickly fills the brain, "Huh..." With the slowly exhaled smoke, all worries are swept away, as if he has been reborn.
Then he rummaged through his backpack again.
He is always a prepared person, so he is fully prepared with everything, including mobile phone, power bank, anti-animal electric baton, first aid kit...
The phone is still in standby mode, with half of the battery remaining, so the signal must be gone. The power bank is still full, and with its 20,000 mAh capacity, it can still be charged four times.
Except for the medicines in the first aid kit, other items were of little use in ancient times, but at least they could become spiritual food.
Song Che looked at the swaying cigarette in his hand and couldn't help but think about the future——
Go back, probably can't go back.
And even if you can go back, if you fall from Mount Huashan, you will be disabled for life.
Although my father-in-law recruited me as his son-in-law without saying a word, he actually saved his life.
What's more, the wife I got for free is so damn beautiful...
"good!"
Song Che threw the cigarette butt on the ground. From today on, I will find everything lost in modern times in ancient times!
"Uncle, where are you? The carriage is ready. Miss is waiting for you to set off!" A shout came from outside the courtyard.
Song Che quickly stamped out the cigarette butts, turned off his cell phone and stuffed it into his backpack. Usually no one would disturb him in the utility room, so it was safe to hide things here.
He stuffed the cigarette and lighter into his sleeves, said yes and walked out of the house.
…
"Our Shen family, starting from my great-grandfather's generation, came to Suzhou dressed in commoners. After four generations of hard work, we have the family business today. Among them, the oldest brand, the brightest sign, the highest reputation, and is also a household name. The four famous names Suzhou embroidery, one of the most popular types of embroidery, is sold all over the country from weaving, dyeing, embroidery and clothing making..."
In the carriage, Shen Wenjun proudly introduced the history of his family.
Song Che raised the curtains and admired the scenery of Suzhou city along the way. The water town in the south of the Yangtze River, where business and travel are interconnected, where there are abundant resources, outstanding people, and people coming and going. It's a leisurely and comfortable life.
For a moment, he also felt that it would be nice to live in an era without engines and exhaust fumes.
"Song Che!"
"ah?"
"Are you listening?" Shen Wenjun stared.
Song Che took out his ears, "Listen, listen," the left ear listened, and the right ear came out. He suddenly became curious: "I heard Fu'er say last night that the Liang Dynasty was surrounded by tigers and wolves, and there were refugees everywhere. Why did Suzhou No appearance in the city?"
"You will be able to see it when you leave the city in the future," Shen Wenjun looked lonely and couldn't help but sigh softly: "It's a pity that the troubled times are powerless, and all the businesses have been affected. Otherwise, with dad's kindness, he will definitely donate money to help the refugees, even if he gives a bowl Eating porridge can save many lives."
There are water thieves who travel by water, rogues who travel by sea, and bandits who travel by land. In such a chaotic situation, no matter how much money is spent, no escort agency will dare to take the job.
Especially for merchants like the Shen family that sell products across the country, once transportation and logistics are cut off, those who are strong can still live on the old bottom line, while those who are lacking in strength can directly file for bankruptcy.
Civilian thieves are one, official thieves are the second.
The national power consumed by marching and fighting will be transformed into high taxes in disguise, and the people's wealth will be wiped out.
What to do if you are hungry? Men can only become thieves, and women can only sell themselves into prostitutes.
So it is, a vicious cycle.
The people are prosperous and suffer.
If they die, the people will suffer.
Throughout ancient and modern history, if a dynasty develops to this extent, the fate of the country will be in danger.
Song Che let out a long sigh, why did he travel to this troubled world?
"Why are you sighing again?" Shen Wenjun looked curious.
Song Che smiled and said: "I'm afraid that in the end, I won't even be able to eat soft rice."
"Ha..." Shen Wenjun said disdainfully: "I'm a frog in a well, I don't want to care about you."
Chat room.
The carriage stopped in front of a shop called "Shuiyunfang".
Shuiyunfang has four facades and is three stories high. You can tell by looking at the facade that it is special.
Song Che followed Shen Wenjun out of the carriage. Before he could enter the door, a beautiful woman ran out chasing two young women. She said in a pleading tone: "Xiuyun, Sister Ma, I will increase your monthly salary by fifty cents." , don’t leave..."
It looked like someone was planning to run away.
"Miss Shen..." When the two young women saw Shen Wenjun, they lowered their heads in shame.
A hint of helplessness flashed in Shen Wenjun's eyes, and he moved away. What should come will always come, and what should go cannot be kept.
The young woman who looked quite mature suddenly held Shen Wenjun's hand, with tears in her eyes: "I'm sorry, Miss Shen, the original price of forty cents per dou of rice has tripled, and I still have two babies at home. It’s really… it’s really…”
Shen Wenjun just patted the back of the young woman's hand and greeted the woman in red shirt: "Qin Ruo, go and help me pack ten taels of silver each as a farewell gift."
"Miss Shen, you can't do this! You absolutely can't do this!" The two young women shook their heads quickly.
Shen Wenjun said sincerely: "Both of you have been popular girls in Shuiyunfang for ten years. If you count all your hard work, ten taels of silver is not much."
"Miss Shen..." The two young women burst into tears.
Song Che stood aside with his hands on his hips, looking at the eldest lady with moist eyes. She was sincere, kind, beautiful, humane, and worldly. She had almost no flaws except not letting her husband go to bed.
"Oh, what a miserable drama, I can't bear to poach you!"
"Da da da……"
A magnificent carriage drove by slowly, an origami fan held up the curtain, and a Huangshan man stepped out. He shook his hairband, thinking he was handsome, but in fact he had a horse face with triangular eyes, and the corners of his mouth Raised high, he looks really mean and mean.
It turned out that they were not running away, but changing jobs.
