Dad, we are so stable, should we do something?

"Master's idea is still the best. Okay, let's do it this way. However, we have some difficulties with the initial money." Prefect Tian thought again that his salary was only so much for such a high-ranking official, and the local finances were also in trouble. The imperial court had been getting worse and worse in recent years, and those of them who were close to the border were even less cared about by the imperial court.

"Master still has to borrow some money from Madam and Miss first." Master Liu felt embarrassed when he said this. His monthly salary was still given by Madam, and the prefect didn't have much money either, some of which was used to subsidize the government office.

"Well, what you said is absolutely right. It makes sense." In fact, Magistrate Tian was waiting for his advisor to say this. If someone affirmed him, he would lose less face. However, that was just what he thought.

After Magistrate Tian returned, he was thinking about how to talk to his wife and daughter, but unexpectedly, his family members spoke first.

"Dad, do you want to buy some cows and farm tools?" Tian Yuheng spoke first. Prefect Tian looked at him with some doubts, but nodded. After all, he had no confidence.

Having been an official for so many years, I have helped my family a lot. For those who are poor, it is difficult for my family to make ends meet.

"Don't worry, my elder sister and I have already contacted someone, and they will deliver it in a while, but the quantity will not be large.

There are only 10 counties under our prefecture, and each county has about 5 people. Although not a lot, it is still a considerable number. Mother and eldest sister said that they each support one county of Dad, and the rest depends on Dad himself to attract some wealthy businessmen. "

"Xing'er, this girl has already thought about it, why is she so generous all of a sudden? Is she planning to do something new?"

"Dad, my elder sister and I are going south to Shang County. On the one hand, the goods we brought here are almost sold out. On the other hand, we are going to discuss cooperation with Miss Fang there. Gao Duwei and his men have almost finished suppressing the bandits, so it's time for us to start selling the goods."

Magistrate Tian was thinking of asking them to help with more work, but now they are running away.

"What about your mulberry and hemp crops? Haven't you taken care of them yet? Don't you need to take care of them?"

By the way, Heng'er, you must come with me, Dad still needs you.

"Don't worry, Dad. This time we are going there to get through Yingzhou Prefecture and Shang County as soon as possible. We are afraid that the road will be blocked in winter and it will be difficult to go out. So we have arranged these things in advance before winter.

Now the land is not a big problem, the house has been built, and we have arranged for a manager. If there are any problems, they can ask mother and others for help. "

Seeing that his son had arranged everything clearly, Magistrate Tian could only give up the idea of ​​continuing to exploit his son.

"Then I'll let Brother Zhenwei and the others lead you. I heard that some places are starting to get chaotic, so you better be careful on the road."

When Chen heard that her daughter was going out again, she was a little worried, but she had seen that her daughter was not able to stay at home over the years, so she could only add more people to her, otherwise she would not feel at ease.

"Old man, I didn't give your daughter the things. I heard that there are new ones recently, so I sent you a batch. You should quickly take some of the things to your daughter and the Zhenwei brothers."

"Oh, yes, yes, I almost forgot about this. When we were attacked before, the general sent a group of soldiers here, including some retired veterans. They just have some problems with their legs and feet, but they are still capable. We will pick a few to go with you so that we can feel more at ease."

While Tian Yuheng was explaining these things to his parents, Tian Xing'er was still arranging matters at the cloth workshop. The technical personnel sent by Fang Shiya a few days ago had arrived, and they immediately arranged for recruitment. This time, Tian Xing'er planned to keep them for half a year or a year. Anyway, it would be difficult to travel in the heavy snow in winter, so it would be better to let them stay here.

After the first batch of mulberry and hemp are harvested next year, they will lead the villagers to make the first batch of Tianji cloth.

Now a lot of wasteland has been reclaimed and vegetables have been planted early. When they are almost ripe, they can buy some chickens and ducks and raise them, so that they can have more meat and eggs.

Feces can also be used as nest fertilizer. This simple ecological cycle is great.

The management aspect is actually not too difficult, after all, the people here are simple, frank and straightforward.

Tian Xing'er made full use of her family's advantages and brought her mother, aunt and sister over to her.

In the future, his mother, Ms. Xu, would be in charge of the overall production and sales of the cloth workshop; while his sister Tian Fuer and his aunt would first be responsible for managing a part of the dyeing workshop staff. After they became proficient in the business, they would gradually be allowed to take charge of more affairs, thus helping Ms. Xu share the worries and work.

As for the farming of the fields, it was handed over to the experienced steward beside Xu, Uncle Bao, who had successfully managed many farm properties before and was definitely capable of doing this job.

After completing the above deployment, Tian Xing'er originally planned to continue to be a leisurely and hands-off boss.

However, the second elder brother in the family proposed to go to Shang County in person before the New Year and lead his men to try to develop new business trade.

At the same time, they also need to investigate whether there are better routes along the way. Because in the future they plan to transport goods to all parts of the country, they can't just rely on the channels of Uncle Fu and Sister Fang.

The ideal situation would be to completely connect the entire road from where my father lives to Shang County, which would not only reduce transportation costs but also improve transportation efficiency.

"Dad, Mom, you have to help me look after the cloth shop and the fields. Don't cause me any trouble. It's not easy for me to make money." Furong really didn't want to leave, but her second brother was right, it would be too late when winter came.

"Okay, let's go, be careful on the road, and leave early." Magistrate Tian looked at his daughter, who seemed to distrust him, and didn't know what to say.

"We are leaving. Dad, mom, aunt and sister, take care of yourselves." Tian Yuheng said goodbye to everyone reluctantly.

After this trip, it will probably take until the end of October before I can come back. After more than half a year of journey, Tian Xinger feels that she has a miserable life. Her goal is to survive, so why should she worry so much now?

"Uncle Zhenwei, you must have worked so hard this time. You were supposed to be working for my father, but now you are here with my brother and me."

"Second Master, don't mind me. I came out of my own accord. Lord Tian is busy with farm work now, and there are other people to take care of the order in the city. I also want to go out for a walk."

"Don't worry, second brother. Uncle Zhenwei doesn't care about petty thefts in the city. He wants to catch bandits every day. Unfortunately, this area is well governed by Gao Xi, so he has no chance. He will be happy to come out." Tian Xing'er laughed secretly and exposed Tian Zhenwei.

Tian Zhenwei glared at him fiercely and could only smile awkwardly.

"It was clearly a sunny day, why did it suddenly rain heavily?" Tian Xing'er and his companions had been walking for a few days. Today, the sun was shining brightly at the beginning, but it suddenly rained heavily in the afternoon.

"It's almost summer, so more rain would be good, otherwise how can the crops grow?" Tian Yuyu replied with a smile while riding on a horse, without looking back at Tian Xing'er. Only Tian Xing'er and her maid were sitting in the carriage, and the rest of the people were riding horses.
