Chapter 413: Dressed as a Widow Without a Man (28)
When Uncle Qi and Uncle Er heard this, they immediately changed their minds.
Uncle Qi quickly gave the answer, "Okay, then let's go look for them in the forest tomorrow and collect them all first.
Also, if you really want to become Dunzi's political achievement, then for the next few years, you can only secretly cultivate in the mountains until Dunzi has a promising future."
Uncle Qi also said, "No matter what, we in Qijia Mountain Valley cannot hide it, and we can't hide it. After all, they also hang out in the mountains every day.
But we can explain the pros and cons to them. After all, they are relatives, so I think it should be possible."
Uncle Qi nodded and said, "You can slowly get in touch with the people of Xujia Village. I can also see that the village chief and the clan leader of Xujia Village have decent values.
As long as they don't fall apart, they should be able to help our team."
The next day, Shuangshuang returned to Xujia Village with a few of the wealthy, the wives of Dacai to Qicai, and a group of little kids of the next generation.
He went to the cattle and horse market again and bought ten mule carts.
Before leaving, the shopkeeper Qian of Hongyunlou suddenly came to the door and brought his family.
"Madam Qi, our boss opened a store in the capital some time ago, and business is booming.
The boss said that he will give you your quarterly salary in the capital this month."
They both nodded, "Thank you so much for thinking this through, otherwise I would be really worried about how to transport it."
"By the way, Shopkeeper Qian, your boss has gone to the capital to develop his business. Didn't you follow him?"
Shuangshuang didn't think about it. Shopkeeper Qian was Duan Ruichen's greatest contributor and his absolute confidant. How could he abandon him?
"Hehe, of course I have to go there too, but I can't abandon Hongyun Building here, so the boss asked me to quickly train a successor and go there as soon as possible."
Manager Qian was also anxious because the boss's side was not the same as before.
There is no shortage of talented people around him now. Who knows if he goes too late, will the position of the most trusted confidant be taken by someone else?
But we really can’t lose the Hongyun Building here.
The main thing is that the other two branches of the Duan family are still here. If we don’t keep an eye on them, we’re afraid that they will cause trouble and implicate the boss.
Then, Shopkeeper Qian suddenly said to Huanyan in a flattering tone, "Look, Madam Qi, I'm here to ask you for a favor, aren't I?"
Shuangshuang saw that apart from the luggage, there were three children who had been staying quietly beside them, and a lady who looked very generous.
"Boss Qian, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Given the relationship between us, there's no need to beg for anything."
Manager Qian suddenly stood up and bowed solemnly to Huanyan, and his family members also quickly stood up and followed suit.
"Thank you for your generosity, Madam Qi. My wife and child would like to ask Madam Qi for help so that we can go to the capital again.
Once they get there, the boss will arrange for them to be accommodated."
Shuangshuang did not refuse, and she was willing to do this favor if it was convenient for her.
"No need to be so polite, Shopkeeper Qian. Don't worry, I will definitely deliver your wife and young master safely to your master."
So the Xu family's fleet had six more cars.
Among all the cars, only Dunzi's car is slightly looser.
The rest were filled with boxes and food, and there was no extra space.
There was no other way. In order to ensure a safe passage for the money and food, Shuangshuang had to take them out and load them into the car.
She had deliberately kept the amount out, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to put all the money she earned from the soap business at Hongyunlou into her pocket.
I wandered on the road for more than a month, almost exhausted, before I finally arrived outside the capital.
As soon as they entered the city gate, a man who looked like a butler in his forties or fifties waved at them.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Xu from Jincheng, or the family of Master Xu?"
The wealthy man driving the carriage in front immediately responded, "It is the Xu family of Jincheng. I wonder who the old man is?"
"I am the steward of the Duan Mansion in Hongyun Tower. Our boss asked us to wait here for everyone to arrive.
The house is ready, please follow me."
Dacai didn't dare to answer this question. He gently asked Huanyan in the car, "What should I do, Auntie?"
"Promise him!"
The housekeeper brought everyone to a large mansion with three entrances.
The room was clean and tidy, and the furniture and utensils were complete. It seemed that the housekeeper was very good at his job.
After the housekeeper showed everyone around the courtyard, he respectfully said to Shuangshuang, "Madam Qi, this was prepared by our master's order."
Then he took out the title deed from his pocket and said, "This house is already in the name of the eldest lady. He said this is to celebrate the happy occasion of the eldest lady Qi moving into a new house."
The people around were so shocked that they could have stuffed eggs in their mouths. A house this big must have cost several thousand guan, right? And they just gave it away like that?
Who is the owner of Hongyun Tower? How could he be so generous?
Shuangshuang took the title deed and opened it to look at it, and sure enough, her name was on it.
Since the previous dynasty, there have been fewer women than men in this world, and it is common for widows to remarry or for women to divorce and remarry.
Therefore, the status of women is higher than in any other dynasty.
It is not uncommon for women to have their own private property.
Shuangshuang put the house deed into his sleeve pocket without changing his expression, and then said something.
"Please ask the housekeeper to go back and thank your master for me.
When I have some free time, I will go to his house to thank him in person."
"Then I will take my leave. If Madam Qi wants to hire some servants, you can go to the West Market and find a woman named Fang Ya Po. She is a relatively clean person."
"Okay, thank you for the reminder, butler."
After everyone left, Shuangshuang took Dunzi and Baoni to live in the first courtyard, arranged for Xu Yougen and his family to live in the second courtyard, and the several wealthy people all lived in the third courtyard.
It shouldn't be divided like this, but since I was a newcomer, I couldn't find so many houses at once, so I could only ask around and then buy.
The next day, Shuangshuang took people to the West Market, found the woman with square teeth, and bought a house of servants from her.
This family has quite a large population, with a total of 12 people in the family.
I heard from Fang Yapo that they were sold out because their master had committed a crime and was implicated.
Their whole family is very capable and can be said to be the right-hand man of their former boss.
It is because their whole family requested to be sold at the same time that the property has been piled up until now.
Fang Yapo also carefully promised Shuangshuang, "If the eldest lady really wants to buy one, the two small ones will be given to you as a gift."
The whole family also looked at Shuangshuang with hope. It was not that no one wanted to buy them during this period, but the main reason was that they themselves did not want to be separated from their family.
Shuangshuang thought about it and decided to make it clear to them, "We are just an ordinary farming family. If you go to my house, you will definitely not have the good life you had before. If you are willing, it is still early."
