Mrs. Bai walked over and stood at the door holding Tofu Xishi together.
Until Tofu Xishi could walk, the three of them walked into the government office.
"boom!"
"Ouch!"
Pan Xiaoxian walked around a corner when a figure hurried over and they bumped into each other.
Hongxiu got up from the ground and was about to get angry. When she saw that the person blocking the way was Pan Xiaoxian, her anger disappeared instantly.
"Master Ciao?"
Hong Xiu was very surprised that Pan Xiaoxian appeared in the Yamen, and said in surprise: "It's just the right time. The lady just asked me to find Master Biao, let's go to the living room quickly."
Pan Xiaoxian came to the living room. In addition to Liu Rushi, there were several elegant ladies.
Liu Rushi was surprised when she saw Pan Xiaoxian standing at the door: "I just asked Hong Xiu to find you, and you appeared immediately. You came so fast."
Several elegant ladies took a look at Pan Xiaoxian. According to Liu Rushi's words, he was the professor of the new school.
Liu Rushi introduced: "This is Mrs. Shang. You have never met her, but she has frequent contact with her daughter Shang Jinglan."
Pan Xiaoxian walked in, said hello, and thought about what Liu Rushi meant by introducing him specifically.
Mostly to help recruit female students.
Liu Rushi smiled and said, "You guys are very influential in Yangzhou, Suzhou, Hangzhou and other places. You know many businessmen's wives. I have to count on you to introduce Pan Xiaoxian."
The ladies only agreed verbally, without any deeper contact, and would not bother to help based on Liu Rushi's words.
Tofu Xishi and Mrs. Bai walked in, met several ladies in the living room, and soon sat together and chatted.
Pan Xiaoxian said: "Let's go over there and talk."
Liu Rushi nodded and sat a little further away: "Xichang deliberately came out to make things difficult. I already know about it and am thinking of ways to help you solve it."
Pan Xiaoxian expressed the idea that he had discussed long ago: "Any businessman who is willing to spend 10,000 taels of silver can put up a Dongchang brand."
The power of the East Factory and the West Factory are almost the same. As long as the Dongchang brand is put up, there is no need to worry about the West Factory making things difficult.
Liu Rushi thought for a while and said, "It's okay to put up the Dongchang brand, but you can't get much. You can only get a few brands at most, which is a drop in the bucket for fifty female students."
Before Pan Xiaoxian came over, he still had the illusion that he might be able to get a dozen Dongchang brands.
As a result, Pan Xiaoxian was disappointed.
Liu Rushi could only bring out a few Dongchang brand dollars, which was indeed too little for Pan Xiaoxian who needed fifty Dongchang brand dollars.
Recruiting female students was already difficult, and this time it was in dire straits.
Pan Xiaoxian smiled bitterly: "Is my head about to move with Wu Sha Mao?"
The businessman hanging up the official sign opened up an idea for Liu Rushi.
Liu Rushi had an idea: "If you can't hang the Dongchang sign, you can hang the sign of other yamen. Take the Siyuan Division that I am in charge of as an example. I also handle matters for the palace. You don't have to worry about hanging the sign. This matter Leave the matter to me, you just have to find a way to recruit enough female students."
It is difficult for anyone to collect fifty yuan for a government sign.
Relying on his own ability, Liu Ru was confident that he could collect more than 40 yuan for official uniforms.
There is only one issue that really needs to be worried about.
Enroll enough female students.
Pan Xiaoxian breathed a sigh of relief: "I can feel a lot more relaxed now that I have solved the problem of making things difficult for Xichang."
After the two chatted, they helped Pan Xiaoxian solve another problem.
Liu Rushi walked back and stood among the ladies again. Even among the elegant ladies, she still stood out.
Tofu Xishi had been concerned about Pan Xiaoxian's situation and hurriedly came over: "Is there any result? How many Dongchang brands can Liu Rushi come up with?"
Pan Xiaoxian said in a good mood: "You can only get a few pieces of Dongchang's brand."
Tofu Xishi heard a few brands and was disappointed. It seemed that there was no chance.
However, Tofu Xishi didn't understand why Pan Xiaoxian's mood became better when he didn't get the results he wanted.
Pan Xiaoxian continued: "It doesn't matter if Dongchang's brand is not enough. Liu Rushi has already agreed. You can find other yamen's brands to put up."
Tofu Xishi patted her chest and said, "I didn't even finish what I was saying. I was frightened to death every time I was startled."
As Tofu Xishi slapped her chest, the pair of big white rabbits on her chest began to shake violently, and the clothes could hardly restrain the white rabbits.
Pan Xiaoxian said with hot eyes: "Whenever you are free, go and conduct a home visit."
Tofu Xishi's pretty face turned red and she looked around nervously. No one heard the conversation between the two.
Only Mrs. Bai ended the chat and came over to ask about the results.
Doufu Xishi said with fear: "Forget about the dishonesty in the carriage just now. This is a government office, and there is a powerful lady standing nearby, so don't talk nonsense."
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Mrs. Bai walked over and felt that something was wrong with Pan Xiaoxian and Tofu Xishi. They had been sneaking around since they got on the carriage.
Tofu Xishi hesitated and said: "Nothing, I just told Pan Xiaoxian to pay attention to the way he speaks when he meets the wife of a wealthy family in the future."
Mrs. Bai was fooled and revealed her real concern: "Have you and Liu Rushi reached an agreement? How many Dongchang brands can you bring out?"
Pan Xiaoxian repeated it again, making it clear that Liu Rushi could come up with enough official signs.
Not all are Dongchang brands.
Mrs. Bai was relieved: "That's enough. As long as it can be branded as a government official, it will be enough to deal with the difficulties of Xichang."
After the banquet was over, Pan Xiaoxian got to know several ladies and planned to visit them one by one.
Today I solved the biggest problem.
Xichang made things difficult.
Pan Xiaoxian drove the carriage to see off Tofu Xishi and Madam Bai, and personally sent them home.
When Tofu Xishi walked out of the carriage, she bent over and walked out with her butt stuck out.
The pose is so tempting.
I would be sorry if I didn't take a photo of this pose.
Pan Xiaoxian subconsciously raised his palm and slapped it hard.
"Snapped!"
Pan Xiaoxian's palm slapped Doufu Xishi's buttocks, making a crisp sound.
"ah?"
Mrs. Bai was sitting in the carriage and could see clearly. She was instantly stunned.
"you……"
Mrs. Bai was not a fool. After seeing Pan Xiaoxian's frivolous behavior, she finally understood what was wrong.
The relationship between Pan Xiaoxian and Tofu Xishi is too ambiguous.
It's not like a normal relationship between teachers and students' parents.
Tofu Xishi panicked and didn't know how to explain.
Pan Xiaoxian said anxiously and wisely: "Little Xishi made a mistake in your school recently. I couldn't bear to beat her, so I asked her mother to punish her instead."
Tofu Xishi quickly asked: "If it were you, would you be willing to accept the punishment on your daughter's behalf?"
This question asked Madam Bai.
Definitely.
However, it would be too humiliating to be spanked in public.
Mrs. Bai blushed: "Can you go to a place where no one is around to fight?"
Pan Xiaoxian and Doufu Xishi breathed a sigh of relief, finally being fooled again.
