The daily struggles of divorced women in ancient times

After Xia Mianwan and Pei Yanxu finished their discussion, they each fell into a busy time. No matter what Pei Yanxu investigated, he could not show it in public. On the surface, he was the prince's tutor and had to go to the East Palace to give lectures to the prince.

Although the prince is young, he has already made up his mind. Pei Yanxu did not hide what happened from him, but there were many spies in the Eastern Palace, so the prince and Pei Yanxu would only say a few words to each other while playing chess.

The prince thought that Master Pei was the smartest person in the world, but when he heard Master Pei praising Xia Mianwan every time, he felt that Master Pei was lucky and he wanted to marry a wife like him in the future.

Pei Yanxu had no idea that he had become famous in front of the prince, but Pei Yanxu did not know how to restrain himself. Every time he played chess, he would praise his wife.

Xia Mianwan had nothing else to do, and no one would keep an eye on her all the time. Moreover, the people behind the scenes were always very confident that their actions would not be noticed by others, so they never put any spies on Xia Mianwan.

Xia Mianwan changed into a set of light casual clothes and went to find Xiaowu with Rumeng and Ruzhu.

Xiao Wu was sorting out the account books in the workshop at this time. Seeing Xia Mianwan, he stood up quickly and said, "Sister Xia, why are you here today?"

Xia Mianwan looked at the people in the room, and Xiaowu knew what was going on, so he asked everyone to leave.

"Sister Xia, why are you here today?" Seeing that everyone had left, Xiao Wu personally poured a cup of tea for Xia Mianwan.

Xiaowu had done well in Yanzhou in the past few years and had some connections of his own.

Xia Mianwan took a sip of tea and praised, "Xiaowu, your tea is good."

Xiao Wu was a little proud, "Sister Xia, this is the tea produced in our farm. How about it? It's good, right? I plan to sell it all over Dachen."

Xia Mianwan nodded, feeling somewhat relieved. In the past two years, Xiaowu had completely established himself on his own, which really made her happy.

"By the way, Sister Xia, why did you come to see me?" Xiao Wu asked.

Xia Mianwan stood up and walked in front of Xiaowu, "Please help me check these people. They may have some relationship with the Salt Gang."

Xiao Wu took the note and glanced at it, then nodded immediately, "Don't worry, Sister Xia, I'll check it out right away."

Since Xia Mianwan had given him the order, it must be a very important matter, so Xiaowu agreed without even thinking about it.

"Don't disturb others." Xia Mianwan warned.

"it is good!"

……

Manyue Tower was closed today, so Xia Mianwan called Madam Sang to go to the private room as soon as she arrived.

"Mianwan, why are you calling me in such a hurry?" asked Madam Sang.

Xia Mianwan said: "Sister Sang, I have something to discuss with you, but I don't know if you are willing."

"Tell me, is there anything we are embarrassed to talk about between us?" Madam Sang patted Xia Mianwan. The friendship between her and Xia Mianwan did not require such politeness.

"I want to use Manyuelou as an endorsement, and I want to do something similar to Chen Er." Xia Mianwan said shockingly.

Madam Sang widened her eyes. A few days ago, Xia Mianwan was worried about those girls with her. Why was she going to do such a conscienceless thing now?

"Mianwan, what are you doing..." Madam Sang hesitated a little. This hesitation was because she knew that Xia Mianwan's mind was always clear and his character was also very good, so Madam Sang did not rush to express her dissatisfaction.

Xia Mianwan smiled and said, "Sister Sang, there are some things I can't tell you for the time being, but... I don't know if you are willing to trust me and cooperate with me. When everything is done, I will give you an explanation."

How could Madam Sang not trust Xia Mianwan? Since Xia Mianwan had spoken, she would believe her.

"Mianwan, since you have spoken, I will definitely agree to you. I will do whatever you say." Madam Sang knew that Xia Mianwan had a plan in mind. If she couldn't say it, then something big must have happened.

Xia Mianwan was very touched. She had such a good sister. Although she was not her biological sister, in such a situation involving interests, Madam Sang still believed in her without hesitation and did it without asking any questions. How could she not be happy?

"Sister Sang, there is one more thing. You have to pretend to quarrel with me. After the quarrel, I will not care about Manyue Tower anymore. What you have to do is to complain to the sisters and say that there is a good thing to make money but you can't tell outsiders. Recently, I got a ship to go to sea. The profit is very high, but the capital is not enough. You want to take the sisters to invest and make money, but I don't want to, saying that I want to eat alone.

Then you tell them how high the bonus is, but I won't let everyone buy shares. After some wrangling, you agree, but you ask them not to make it public, for fear that too many people will find out and drag you down. The first 100 people can buy shares, but the rest won't.

When the club is full, you can open another session. When it is full again, you can say that there are too many people and the capital invested by Manyuelou is not enough. You can just borrow money from them in the name of Manyuelou. The interest rate will still be higher than that of Chen Er.

After that, you can say that if the money is particularly stable, you can choose five people from the fifty to invest. "Xia Mianwan explained it in great detail, fearing that Madam Sang didn't hear it clearly enough.

Madam Sang understood, "But we don't have so many sisters. There's no need for everyone to fight for it. How can there be a second period?"

"Isn't there still a workshop?" Xia Mianwan reminded with a smile.

"Workshop? Do you want to tell the people over there too?" Madam Sang's face was full of confusion.

Xia Mianwan did not explain, "Yes, you have to tell them all. But you have to tell them in order. The rest will be passed on by word of mouth. You must know who the gossipers are in the workshop and Manyue Tower. You can make sure to pass on the information to them."

Mrs. Sang thought for a moment and said, "Okay! Where should we put the silver after we collect it?"

Xia Mianwan said: "After you collect these silvers, you must record them in the account book every day, and then send someone to talk to Ruzhu, and naturally someone will come to collect your silver."

"Okay." Madam Sang agreed.

"Sister Sang, please use the seal of Manyue Tower. Don't use your own private seal." Xia Mianwan reminded.

Madam Sang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know what's going on."
