Super Mom System

Chapter 41

Early in the morning, Zhou Hong, the shopkeeper of Luji Silk and Satin Store, was sitting in the living room in the east courtyard of the Lu family, feeling a little upset.

Since the master passed away and the young master took over as the head of the family, Zhou Hong only saw the young master once at the master's funeral.

Thin and a bit wretched, he doesn't look like he's capable of big things.

In the past few days, there have been rumors that the young master is singing and dancing at home all day long and is not doing well.Zhou Hong was puzzled, how on earth did he seize the position of head of the family in the hands of the tiger-wolf second master?

Recently, the business of silk and satin village has been very sluggish.Especially yesterday, because a batch of silk for which the deposit had already been delivered was delayed, Zhou Hong went to the supplier to urge the goods, but the other party actually said that the goods had been sold to someone else, and they readily paid the compensation.Ask him who he sold to and don't say anything, but in the end he was kicked out.

That's an old buddy who has been working together for several years.In the past, when the master was still there, no one would dare to treat the Lu family like this.I want to report to the owner, I heard that he has recently been angry with the people of the Chen family rice shop, and charged a lot of grain at a high price.

Could it be that this young master is really mentally retarded as rumored?

Zhou Hong is different from Lu Yi's old team, he didn't transfer from a bandit.Zhou Hong has been in the silk industry for more than [-] years and is a seasoned businessman.

"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon."

In the way of business, you can't make a lot of money if you follow the rules. If you want to get ahead, you must either monopolize or take a slant.Maybe the young master is a real person who doesn't show his face?

Zhou Hong came early, thinking about things with a teacup in his hand, and his heart was in turmoil.

Soon, shopkeeper Jiang from the grain store also came, also looking very worried.

The two arched their hands at each other and exchanged a few pleasantries.The living room is very large, in addition to the main seat, there are more than a dozen chairs.The two sat in the middle of each other.

Then the shopkeepers of the carriage houses and inns under the name of the Lu family arrived one after another, and they all took the seats next to Jiang Zhou's people.

When a strong smell of rouge and gouache came, everyone knew that Mama Wang from Yingchun Tower had also come.

"Hey~ shopkeeper Jiang, I've been very busy recently. I haven't come here for a long time. The girls miss you so much."

Shopkeeper Jiang smiled awkwardly and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Hey! It's a big battle today, why is shopkeeper Zhou here?" Mama Wang turned around and saw Zhou Hong, and waved a handkerchief to greet him.

Zhou Hong felt disgust for no reason when he looked at Mother Wang's face. This talkative woman was a wallflower who wavered between the east and west houses. This was the kind of person Zhou Hong hated most in his life.

"Damn it!" A loud voice came, and everyone looked around, only to see Lu Lushun's shopkeeper Niu coming in with a big belly.

"This job can't be done!"

Shopkeeper Niu grinned and sat down on the honored guest's seat after speaking, picked up the teacup and drank it in one gulp. His mouth was full of tea, and he spit non-stop.

"I finally came up with a good idea a while ago. Betting on Cuju, you know? People in Zhenhaicheng are all good at gambling, and they all also like playing Cuju. As soon as the handicap for my Cuju competition opened, my betting turnover was tens of thousands of taels. . You can make thousands of taels just by sitting in the bank. Not to mention those few Cuju teams are my acquaintances. A business that is sure to make a profit without losing money, the owner stopped it as soon as he said it. It’s okay now, let’s not do it and gamble all over the world. The gang of ruffians in Fang Fang did it. Now I am swearing in front of Lao Tzu all day long. If the Second Master’s people hadn’t withdrawn, I would definitely kill them.”

Zhou Hong snorted coldly, making no secret of his contempt for Shopkeeper Niu.He manipulated the results of Cuju competitions, causing countless people to lose everything.The reputation of the East Hospital was ruined by this kind of person.Thinking back when the Lu family was at its peak, where was the need to use such indiscriminate methods?

Shopkeeper Niu was zagging when Lu Yuan arrived.

With a pair of panda eyes, he staggered to the main seat and sat down on his footsteps.A servant in the back is holding a stack of papers.

Seeing this, Zhou Hong couldn't help shaking his head. He heard that the Patriarch was only 20 years old, so why did he look so drunk.The shopkeeper Niu picked up the newly added tea and took another sip, grinning and not looking at Lu Yuan.The other shopkeepers also looked absent-minded.

Lu Yuan cleared his throat and said, "Everyone is here, let's have a meeting."

The shopkeepers fell silent and turned to look at Lu Yuan to see if he had anything to say.

"As for me, I hate wasting time the most, so I'll just say it straight. The East Hospital is now in a time of needing money. I invite all shopkeepers to come here today because I want money."

After finishing speaking, Lu Yuan clapped his hands, and the servant behind him distributed the rice paper in his hands one by one.

The shopkeepers of the various shops read the contents of the paper, and their expressions all changed.

On it is written the amount that each store must turn in.

"Lulushun Casino 2100 taels

Yingchun Building 1350 taels

Luji silk and satin village 650 taels

……

"

Everyone looked at each other and found that the content on each piece of paper was the same.

"Here, what does the owner want to do with so much money?"

"Yeah, how can we raise so much money all of a sudden."

"Hey, it's open, fair and just, and it's clear in black and white. Shopkeepers, within three days, the silver will be handed over to Shopkeeper Jiang." Only then did the people notice that there was no Lu Family Grain Company on this piece of paper, and they immediately started commotion.

The shopkeeper Jiang was very surprised, sweating profusely, and kept wiping with a square towel.

"Boss." Zhou Hong stood up and bowed, "May I ask you what you want so much money for?"

Lu Yuan glanced at Zhou Hong, he was the most polite among so many shopkeepers.

"Of course it's a fight with the Chen family's rice shop." Lu Yuan was filled with indignation, "How dare the surname Chen ignore me and say that he has a lot of rice, and our Lu family can't buy it all. Hey, don't you say it's annoying? It's annoying, I insist on buying all his rice and showing him!"

Shopkeeper Jiang was at a loss as to what to hear from the bottom. Did Boss Chen say that? Why didn’t I know?
The other shopkeepers were whispering to each other and talking about it.

"Master, this is a joke, right?"

"How can you do business like this? Isn't it against money?"

Zhou Hong fixedly looked at Lu Yuan, unable to figure it out.

Judging from the amount distributed on the rice paper, the owner obviously knows the financial situation of each store, which one has more money and which one has less money, it is clear and clear.Especially silk and satin villages have been poorly managed recently, and they can only spend 650 taels at most without affecting the operation.Well done!
The owner just sent someone to pick up the account books of the silk and satin village the day before yesterday.The account book is very running, and the income and expenditure items are densely packed. It is our store that specializes in accounting, and it will take several days to reorganize it from the beginning.The owner has calculated the accounts so clearly in just two days?There are still capable people in the East Court.Is it Lu Ping?Didn't he go to the countryside to collect rent?
However, the paper added up to a total of more than 6500 taels. According to the recent purchase price of 400 mana a stone in the East Courtyard, more than 16000 taels could be purchased!Let's buy ten Chenjia rice shops too!The purpose of the boss is definitely not simple!
Thinking of this, Zhou Hong patted his nose and sat down voluntarily, bowing his head in silence.

The shopkeeper Bian Bian Niu quits his job.

"Boss! Do you always think that our Lu Lushun Casino is a gold mine? You still have 2100 taels, but now there is no 500 taels in the account!" Shopkeeper Niu patted his round belly, "Why don't you kill me, old Niu?" This body of fat can be sold for a lot of money!"

"Yes, my boss, I really don't have so much money!"

The shopkeepers of all the shops responded one after another, and there was a lot of noise in the living room, which was unseemly.
