MTL - Fight the Giants-Chapter 834 lack of silver

  The second steward of the Fuzhong knelt in front of Huo Xi, not knowing how to reply.

  Aunt Jun asked the steward to come to Mrs. Shizi to ask the reason. Several stewards were either sick or couldn't get away because of something, so they sent him over.

  The second steward regretted it very much, why did he make this trip.

"Return to madam, the housekeepers in the Dongpian house have no work now, crying and begging, and there are no other vacancies in the house at the moment, so I don't know how to arrange them. Why don't we let them go back to Dongpian It's time for the door."

  Looking up at Huo Xi, seeing that she was silent, she wiped the sweat off her forehead.

"In addition... In addition, Aunt Jun said that there are plenty of stoves in the big kitchen. There are not many servants in the big house, so it is against the rules to occupy a big stove alone. The kitchen is not doing well, so just beat it up. If, if everyone If you follow the big house, it will be messed up. From now on, the affairs of the mansion can't... can't be managed."

Vanilla was annoyed when she heard this, and reprimanded: "When we were treated unfairly before, why didn't there be someone in charge to deal with it? Let us eat the leftovers, let alone the leftovers, and we can't even get out of the door! We have to check the right cards and check , Even the things we bought from outside have to be searched for a long time, and the flower cakes have to be crushed, thinking that we are hiding poison! This is the judge? Are you going to interrogate the prisoner?"

  The second steward was sweating white hair on his forehead: "It's all the people below who did the wrong job! I've already reprimanded them, and there will be no such thing again." He repeatedly promised.

"Hey, who would believe you? When we first entered the mansion, you acted as if you forgot about us, and didn't even issue a report. It happened once, and now it's happening again? There is no such thing in the Duke's mansion in the capital. Look It’s still the wrong person to take care of Zhongfu. You can’t even take care of the servants, why don’t you change someone to take care of it!”

  The second steward dared not respond to these words.

   How dare he respond to Aunt Jun's failure to take charge?

  If these things spread to the ears of outsiders, saying that the big house occupied the east side gate, sent guards to guard it, and sent people to occupy the kitchen stove, the outsiders might not know how to make a joke of the Mu family.

  When the time comes, the Duke of the State will get angry and scold Aunt Jun for being incompetent in housekeeping. But they are even worse.

  He didn't want to lose his job. In the whole of Yunnan, where else can you find such a good job?

  Huo Xi didn't want to embarrass his subordinates either.

He said to the second steward: "The east side gate is close to my big house. It is more convenient for us to go through the east side gate than the gate. We will not withdraw people back. As for the old women who were guarding the gate, the Mu mansion is so big. If there are no vacancies in the errands, there are a lot of properties outside, how many wives are not easy to arrange?"

  Working outside as an errand can be as comfortable as living in the house?

   Mrs. Shi Zi said this, did she refuse to abandon the Dongpian Gate?

I also heard Mrs. Shizi say: "As for the big kitchen, if the stove is not enough, Aunt Jun doesn't know how to deal with it. Why don't I go to the Duke's side and move the stove to the courtyard of our big house, or take a look at the house?" How can there be an open space and an empty yard to build another kitchen for my big house?"

   It was because she was afraid that the matter would reach the ears of the Duke, Aunt Jun let them go this trip, to persuade Mrs. Shizi to return.

   Why do you have to talk to the Duke of the country?

  The second manager hurriedly dissuaded: "How dare you bother Mrs. Shizi with such trivial matters. Although there is a separate stove, the amount of cooking in the big kitchen is less, so it is not a big problem for the time being."

   "Isn't it a big problem?" Huo Xi smiled.

"In fact, there are quite a few guards in our big house. One stove is actually not enough. You can't cook vegetables and soup at the same time when cooking. When the rice is done, the dishes have to be cooked one by one, which is time-consuming and troublesome. Why don't I go to the Duke?" Let's go over there and see how to deal with the matter. Otherwise, let the servants use the small kitchen of me and Shizi."

   How does this work?

  Let the master and servants share the same kitchen, and if it spreads, wouldn't it make people laugh?

   "Don't worry, ma'am, I will take good care of the big kitchen, and they won't dare to use it too much. If something goes wrong again, I will go to the Duke to plead guilty!"

  After a long while, Huo Xicai nodded, "That's fine. I'll just trust the second steward this time, and let the steward arrange the kitchen affairs. It can't be said that the servants of the Duke of the Kingdom can't eat anymore, can it?"

   "Yes, Ma'am, don't worry. There will be no such thing." I think Mrs. Shizi is quite easy to talk to, "Then, about Dongpianmen..."

   "Dongpian Gate? Does someone else use Dongpian Gate? My eldest room helps watch the door, and I do a lot of things, and I don't get an extra monthly payment. What's wrong with that?"

  Uh...what's the problem? He couldn't say there was a problem either.

   Things didn't make sense, so the second steward had no choice but to leave in despair.

  Aunt Jun was so angry that she fell in the room and smashed it.

   "This **** is dissatisfied with my palm, and is fighting against me!" He also sent guards to guard the east side gate! Does it look like she's a big brother?

  At first he wanted to take advantage of Da Fang, but he didn't expect to be very angry.

  The big house has a gate for entry and exit, and even the bills are only paid in silver, and the big house sent people to buy them! I also bought a cook to help the cook and put them in the big kitchen, holding these people's identities!

  She originally wanted to make a fuss about eating and drinking, but now she can't do it.

   What made Aunt Jun angry is yet to come.

  The banknotes she sent to Jun's house were spent within a few days. Mrs. Jun also knew that if she asked her for money again, it would be difficult to ask her. He said he wanted to sell his property for silver.

   How did you get to the point of selling silver? Jun disagrees.

  As soon as the property is sold, others will know that Jun's business has suffered a setback. At that time, business partners will not choose Jun's, and it will only be more difficult for Jun's.

   "Why don't you exchange some hidden property for silver?" suggested.

  But how can the Jun family have any secret property? Relying on Aunt Jun's mother and son these years, the whole family and clan members have been very high-profile outside, for fear that others will not know that their family's great fortune is different, and there is no secret inheritance.

  Grandpa Jun frowned for a long time, "Then, we can only sell the dry shares of Brown's jade mine."

   Didn't say sell it to others, just asked Aunt Jun, "The family owns 30% of the shares. Instead of taking advantage of others, why don't you ask Zhan'er to buy it back?"

  Jun was taken aback, "Brown spent a lot of money to buy that jade mine before!" Thirty percent? How could Zhan'er get so much money at once?

   Now they eat and use the mansion, and they don’t have a separate family. The men in the mansion have some properties, but they are all managed by special shopkeepers. Most of the income is handed over to the public, and the masters and young masters just get some dividends every year.

   Otherwise, why did she and Zhaner want to secretly save some property? Want to have your own staff?

   "Father, you know about your grandson's situation. When we bought the jade mine, our mother and son took out almost all the money we saved. Now he wants to recruit some people, but he can't get the money together."

   Seeing Aunt Jun calling her poor, Mrs. Jun was a little dissatisfied.

  Aunt Jun hurriedly comforted, "Father, you can relax. There are so many stocks in the shop, as long as you sell them, you will get money."

   Seeing that Aunt Jun didn't mention giving money any more, or exchanging money for dry shares, Mrs. Jun had no choice but to go back and find another way.

   On the other side, Huo Xi soon found out about the news, and secretly sent someone to contact Jun Ruoxu.
