Chapter 615 Introduction
Chapter 615 Introduction
As an outsider, Hua Lei didn't know her current situation. Although her husband was the legitimate son, he was the third son, so according to the normal rules of dividing the family, she and her husband could only get less than 10% of the family's share.
In an ordinary family, this ten percent of the family fortune is more than they can spend, but no one thinks that the money is too much. If they can make a deal with the Ministry of Justice this time, it will be the golden thigh of their family.
What's more, her husband's two brothers are both smart and capable, and her two sisters-in-law usually bully her and take advantage of her because no one in her family supports her.
Although the Fu family looks gorgeous on the outside, they also have hardships inside that are difficult to tell outsiders. This is why she discussed with her husband for a long time after receiving Hualei's letter and tried every means to reform the direction of the workshop and produce thick fabrics.
Before the opportunity comes, do what you can first. If there is a chance, take it. If there is no opportunity, create one. In this way, when the opportunity comes, you can grab it.
Because she knew that once an opportunity is lost, it will never come back. So, she originally thought of going to Leyang Prefecture and Mobei Town to explore the road, try her luck, open a shop, and develop her career.
Who would have thought that Hualei, the capable best friend, would suddenly give her another big favor. Although she and Hualei were always on good terms, she refused to suffer any loss.
But, in fact, she is also a very sensible person with high emotional intelligence. When Hualei got married, she gave a lot of dowry gifts. Moreover, when Hualei opened a wool sweater workshop, she also helped a lot.
This is also the way Hua Lei and Liang Xiangyi get along with each other. They try their best to help each other when they can, within the scope of their abilities.
If you should fight for the interests that you should fight for from the other party, you should also fight for them without hesitation. This includes when you are arguing, even if you are not right, you should still be strong.
The day after Liang Xiangyi signed the agreement, he immediately wrote a letter and asked his men to send it out as fast as possible. He then went out for a walk with Uncle Zhongsheng.
I went to West Street first, but didn’t see any suitable shops, so I went to South Street and North Street recommended by Hualei and took a look around.
Hua Lei wanted to take her there personally, but Liang Xiangyi firmly refused. Emperor Shengwu didn't even assign her any work, so she shouldn't go ahead and do it without knowing what was good for her.
Moreover, I also saw clearly that the night before last, I chatted with Hua Lei for a little longer, and the man looked unhappy, dissatisfied and unhappy.
Therefore, at Hualei's insistence, she and Uncle Zhongsheng came out together. Moreover, they quickly bought a small shop on North Street as their contact point in Mobei.
As for the garment shop, she decided to open it in Leyang Prefecture. The manpower in Mobei was too tight, and the men were requisitioned by the court. Most of the women had been taken away by a certain monkey-like woman. She knew she couldn't compete with that woman, and she didn't want to compete with her.
After buying the shop and handling the deed, she left the key with Hualei. Later, she would send someone to take over the shop. She didn't bring so many people this time. Then she boarded the ship overnight and left the town of Mobei.
Of course, she was once again exploited by that cunning woman and helped her transport a boatload of rabbit furs and rabbit fur sweaters back to the capital.
Of course, I also got back on track and signed a subsequent sales agreement with her for rabbit fur sweaters and rabbit fur. In the future, several states in Jiangnan will still be my territory. Humph, there are many rich people there, so I can set a higher price to make back my investment.
Liang Xiangyi came and left like a gust of wind. When Qingqi helped to clean up the room where she had lived, she found a silver note of one thousand taels and a short note under the pillow.
He explained that the one thousand taels were for the baby in Hua Lei's belly. Thinking that the Marquis' Mansion must have prepared the best things for her, he would not take out his own poor money to embarrass himself, and asked Hua Lei to accept it with peace of mind.
Hualei smiled and asked Qingqi to put the banknotes away. Then she settled the people Liang Xiangyi brought with her and sorted out the supplies. The midwives who were sent here usually did various things at home besides helping with births. Grandparents sent them here to actually take care of them for half a year.
During the past six months, Hualei could use these people. Although the farm and the rabbit farm needed people, Hualei still let these midwives live in the house and let Cao Yasao take care of them, helping them spin rabbit wool, knit sweaters, and do some light work every day.
The servants who came with Hualei were placed at various exchange points again, and a group of people were also sent to the farms, shops, and horse farms.
Of the supplies that were delivered, some of the preserved eggs were sent to Mrs. Han of Pei Jingyang, and some were also sent to people she knew nearby. After she had some left for herself, she sent the rest to the restaurant and launched the preserved egg and lean meat porridge.
Preserved eggs were not yet popular during the Great Sheng Dynasty, so the unique preserved egg and lean meat porridge quickly became the officials' favorite breakfast.
Many people would come and buy one, and then take it directly to the county government office, eat and then work. The restaurant's breakfast business suddenly became better, and as a result, a lot of other breakfasts were also sold.
Other rice wine, sweet potato wine, soap, etc. were still sold in grocery stores, and a batch was also sent from Modong Town.
The things that grandparents sent for the children were much more numerous, ranging from bellybands to outer cotton jackets, swaddling cloths, diapers, and even bibs to prevent children from drooling. There were six wooden boxes filled with them.
There were toys ranging from rattles to small wooden swords, tumblers to doll whistles, and even nine-linked rings and Luban Road. Hualei couldn't help but laugh. Grandparents had prepared everything for children to play with before they turned fifteen?
In another box, there were children's shoes and hats. A pair of tiger-head shoes caught Hualei's attention. Hualei picked them up, held them in her palm, and looked at them carefully. They were made of the finest velvet fabric and the best gold thread for embroidery, but the stitches were a little crooked, some were long and some were short, and it was hard to see them in detail.
It should be made by my grandmother herself. She is as skilled as I am, and her eyesight is presbyopic, so it must be difficult for her. The tiger-head hat next to it is made of the same material and has similarly horrible stitching. It should also have been made by my grandmother.
Hualei sighed softly, touched the tiger-head hat and tiger-head shoes, and felt warm in her heart.
