[Red Mansion] Mrs. Lin, the Buddhist family

Jia Gu looked at Jia Shu in surprise, "A merchant is a lowly person, and business is even more despised by others. Why do you have such thoughts?"

"Did my aunt withhold your monthly money?" Jia Zhi asked suddenly.

If not, she really couldn't imagine why Jia Shu would suddenly want to do business, and even wanted the two of them to help.

Jia Shu also knew that it was difficult for his words to win the approval of the two concubines, but...

"Sisters, don't you have a shop in your dowry?"

No one is a fool, who doesn't know about making money in business?Even if they dare not act aggressively because of other people's rumors, can these people at the top of society really easily give up the benefits at their fingertips?

Jia Gu was stunned, of course she had more than one shop in her hand.

But before Jia Shu came up with it, she never thought that these shops are actually a kind of business and might be despised by others, "But, everyone does this?"

Among the noble girls all over the capital, who would not bring a few shops as dowry when they get married?

"Isn't running a dowry shop a business?" Jia Shu looked at the two concubine sisters seriously, "Besides, it's impossible for the shop in your hands to always be the dowry shop? After all these years, you don't have more Buy a few to earn some private house?"

They didn't need to answer, Jia Shu knew the answer himself.

Jia Zhi was even more decisive, and immediately asked, "What business does the third sister plan to do?" As she spoke, her eyes fell on the boy beside her, her eyes dim.

Jia Shu squinted his eyes and raised his hand to Chixia.

Chixia understood, and immediately recruited a few little maids to take all four children to the yard to play.

After the people had left, Jia Shu said, "Rouge and gouache."

Jia Zhi lowered his eyes and looked calm: "In the whole capital, there are not more than a dozen companies in the rouge and gouache business, but there are seven or eight companies. Each of them has their own unique formula, and they have established a firm foothold in the capital long ago. Ruo Sanmei also plans to Opening a rouge and gouache shop, my sister advises my younger sister to give up."

Rongguo Mansion made a fortune in just two or three generations, and the mistresses who married into the house were all from similar backgrounds, and they didn't save a few secret recipes, not even a single unimportant thing like rouge and gouache.

Even Jia Shishi's rouge powder was specially sent to the shop to buy it.

There is no "secret recipe" to distinguish their own rouge and gouache from other shops. Even if they are backed by Rongguo Mansion, they can only wait for the closure of the shop, and they don't need to be suppressed by their peers.

At the beginning, Jia Shu focused on Jia Gu, but after she said these words, she realized that among the two concubines, the inconspicuous second sister was the one who really made up her mind.

Thinking about it this way, her attitude towards Jia Zhi became much more serious: "I have a few unique formulas in my hand."

Rouge gouache in this era is cosmetics. Although it is safer and more harmless than modern cosmetics, it has fewer tricks!

Even if she had been living at the forefront of the war in her previous life, she was still a woman, not to mention anything else, at least she knew all about the colors of lipstick.After transmigrating, looking at the rouge with a single color and only relying on shades and gradients to add color to her clothes, it is natural to be disgusted.

Fortunately, although Cuiyan is escaping, she has a good skill in making rouge. As long as Jia Shu asks for the color, she can make the corresponding finished product.

Over the past few years, she has saved more than a few prescriptions.

It seems that the third sister did not act on a whim, and was already ready to open a makeup shop.

Can……

"Why did my sister choose the two of us?"

It's not that Jia Zhi despises herself, but she is an unfavored marquis mansion, she doesn't have much energy in her hands, and she doesn't have much affection for the third sister. This is almost equivalent to giving away money, why? Will it fall on her head?

Wouldn't it be better to cooperate with the four younger sisters?

Jia Shu sighed: "Several shops I'm looking at are about to change hands, but right now I don't have enough money. And in the initial stage of opening the shop, I need someone to sit in charge for me."

Jia Zhi looked at the bank notes in his and Jia Gu's hands: "Are these not enough?"

"Until I'm married, I can't move."

Jia Zhi pondered for a moment, then immediately nodded: "I promise."

Jia Gu was dumbfounded. He looked at Jia Shu and Jia Zhi, but he still couldn't make up his mind, so he could only say, "I'll give Third Sister an answer in a few days."

Jia Shu nodded, not displeased.

Jia Shu has always believed that among the rich and powerful in ancient times, most men could only be officials, and they could only be caught blind when they encountered other occupations.But women are different. Not to mention the basic skills of female housekeepers such as piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and calligraphy, they must also be proficient in financial personnel.

Their own dowry is okay, but part of it is just land, gold, silver, jewelry, and ornaments, and there is not much to manage.But the property of the husband's family needs to support a whole big family, not to mention increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, but they can't let these properties create a deficit in their hands, right?

The ancient mistresses were all the top management talents.

Jia Shuben just suddenly had the idea of ​​bringing the two concubine sisters into the group to start a business together, and she was not ready to persuade people at all. Now she has already made money by agreeing and considering.

As for the possibility of changing the original life trajectory of the two concubine sisters?That's the bonus.

The three of them settled down on the business, and then let Chixia bring the four children into the house again.

But when someone came in, the three of them were shocked to find that the oldest boy among the four had bruises on his face.

Jia Shu was startled: "Chixia, what's going on?"

Chixia's eyes flicked back and forth on the four children, and she couldn't help but look at the eldest lady and the second lady who brought them over, and then pointed at the eldest child under Jia Shu's urging gaze: "Young Master Hu wants to talk to the third I played with a young master and a young lady, but because of improper movements, I pushed down Miss Liu, and then the two young masters Liu and young master Hu started fighting."

Although Young Master Hu is the oldest, the four children are already young, at most one or two years older than the others.One-on-two, wouldn't you be beaten?

But what surprised Jia Shu was that this young master Hu didn't cry, but instead looked at her second sister with piercing eyes after entering the room, his eyes were full of scrutiny.

This is so weird, it doesn't look like the eyes a child of this age should have at all.

Jia Zhi was not surprised at all, her eyes fell on Young Master Hu's face, a trace of sarcasm flashed in her eyes, she was planning to throw her hands away and ignore it completely.
