Second Master Xue of the Red Chamber has space

Chapter 738
The Xue family's current status in Beijing can't be said to be at the top of the sky, but at least it is thriving.Xue Yi is deeply trusted by Lord Kangxi, and he is also a close minister of Prince Yong, so there is no need for Xue Hong to worry about the future of the Xue family.

However, as a courtier, good fortune and misfortune always depend on each other, and Yinzhen has such a temperament, which always makes Xue Hong feel very uneasy, so he came to Xuanyilou this time, and he also planned to clean up the property under his hands.

Because most of these shops in Hangzhou are engaged in the bedding business, he first went to the machine households (people who make a living by textiles) who signed contracts with the shops to learn about the situation.

There are only three shops of Xue Hong in the local area, but the supply of bedding products in the whole city of Hangzhou is quite sufficient.However, because the Xue family caravan has grown in size over the past few years, even if Xue Hong started a bedding business on a whim, it will be sold nationwide through the caravan.

Therefore, in addition to these dozens of machine households in Hangzhou, there are hundreds of households in the entire Jiangnan area signed under Xue Hong's name. rich.

These dozens of households in Hangzhou are all managed by Lao Jiangtou’s family.When Lao Jiangtou was young, he served as the local village chief. He was fair in dealing with things in the village and was very prestigious in the name of the village.Although he is old now, what he says is still very convincing.

When the old man saw Xue Hong, he came up to meet him. Xue Hong hurriedly stepped forward and took the old man's hand: "Grandpa Jiang, how are you recently?"

Old Jiang smiled and said: "The boss is still so polite, how can I bear it, old man? Recently, our business in Hangzhou City is very good. We machine owners are working every day, and we always get paid, and our family lives well. It is getting better and better, thanks to my master for bringing us such good dyeing materials, which are easy to dye and not easy to fade, and the silk threads dyed with these dyes are excellent textiles!"

What this old Jiang Tou is talking about is the powder made from the core of the spiritual fruit tree in Xue Hong's space.Most of the spirit pet noodles have now advanced to the adult state, so their food intake has also increased. Xinxin, Chun'er and Xuanming all love to eat the spirit fruit, so the fruit pits in the space are flooded. Xue Hong also had an idea and thought of starting a bedding business.

Because bedding is different from other textiles, it only needs to pass the weaving technology to weave gorgeous, soft and skin-friendly fabrics, and then give reasonable and ingenious tailoring and sewing. No more complicated embroidery is needed. In addition, the dyeing powder, which is extremely easy to operate, will have corresponding guarantees in terms of output and quality, and the cost is relatively low. The needs of nobles and commoners can be met very intimately, so naturally there is no need to worry about no business.

Xue Hong nodded: "That's all. Grandpa Jiang, I want to tell everyone that I have a good time working for my store. If the business is good this year, I will be able to pay more dividends at the end of the year."

The old Jiang leader smiled and said: "Of course. The wages our boss pays us every month are sufficient, just a little more. How can we not live a good life? It's just..."

Xue Hong said: "Old man, if you have any difficulties, just speak up."

Old Jiang said: "There is no difficulty, it's just that... there are a few children in our village who are very pitiful. I think... I'm thinking of letting them come to the dyeing workshop to work as handymen or something, which is better than a day's work." I am not as strong as Fan Zhe at night, I don’t know what my boss is..."

As soon as Old Jiang finished speaking, his son Jiang Lao Da said: "Father, why are you talking to the owner about this matter? Do you really plan to take those ruffians in? They have no parents since they were young, and it is indeed pitiful. But there are many tricks for people to live. Didn’t Jiang Xiucai at the east end of our village also lost his parents when he was young? What kind of personality is he, and what kind of personality are those local hooligans? Let's see if that person is worth helping!"

Xue Hong felt something was wrong when she heard it: "Grandpa Jiang, what does this mean?"

Boss Jiang took a step forward and said, "Boss, originally my father was talking to you, and I shouldn't interrupt as a junior, but what my father just said just now must not be allowed. Those gangsters are not under the control of their family members. There is nothing good about getting together, stealing, robbing and bullying women, doing all sorts of crimes, and there are so many women in our dyeing workshop, if we really let them come to our dyeing workshop, wouldn’t it be usurping the wolf into the house?”

Xue Hong frowned: "Grandpa Jiang, is what your son said true?"

Old man Jiang wondered: "Yes, but...the reason why they do bad things is because they don't have money. If they have a reason to do something, and they have something to do every day, they won't..."

Before Old Man Jiang could finish his words, Boss Jiang stepped forward and said, "Father! How can you be so obsessed with it? You want to help them wholeheartedly, but why do they appreciate it? The money they get for doing bad things is too easy. , how can you pay attention to the monthly money of the dyeing workshop? Do you want them to learn well? Hmph, how is it possible!"

Xue Hong completely understood this time. Grandpa Jiang also had the same idea as he had before. He believed that as long as he was in trouble and poor people, he should help those who could. However, he didn't know that trying to draw water from a bamboo basket was in vain. On the contrary, it was putting the cart before the horse. .

Xue Hong didn't pay attention to Old Jiang's proposal, but said: "Our Hangzhou prefect's ability is still good, these people won't cause any big troubles on the ground, brother Jiang, don't worry."

Seeing that Xue Hong didn't agree with each other, Old Jiang was too embarrassed to continue talking.Later, when Xue Hong inspected the shop, the words of Old Jiangtou always sounded.So he asked Xinxin to investigate these people.

Sure enough, when it comes to some hooligans in this small town, everyone knows it.They did indeed do a lot of bad things, even when Xinxin went to inquire about the news, they just stole a cash box from a merchant and divided the spoils there.

Xue Hong sighed: "This old man Jiang is really kind-hearted. He will always want to help such people. However, it is a disaster for these people to stay in this town. How about...Ming Ye, you go to scare these people tonight." Little bastards, let them restrain themselves."

Ming Ye smiled and said, "I'm good at this."

That night, Ming Ye touched the place where these hooligans were staying, revealed his real body, howled to wake them up, and then uttered the words: "Wait for you, if you commit any more crimes, I will kill you all!" Swallow it into your stomach and sacrifice to the temple of the deity's five internal organs! You still haven't returned the stolen money! From now on, this deity will always watch you, and if you make mistakes again, you will be punished severely!"
