Crossing the famine, I am a poor fish, and my descendants have to work hard

Werewolf and script-based killing are actually similar.

The difference is that Werewolf is played under fixed rules, and the joy of the game lies in winning or losing, while in script-killing, each script has a brand new character, and the joy lies in reasoning and experience.

These people have the basics of Werewolf, so they can quickly get the hang of script-killing games.

After playing the script-killing game for four days, Zhao Yuanzhen became familiar with every script. She started teaching everyone how to play mahjong.

Fortunately, Lan Ying also knew how to play mahjong, so it made it much easier for the two of them to teach her.

Basically, everyone was familiar with the rules in one day.

All that's left is to master the technique.

Zhao Yuanzhen also placed several mahjong tables, and rooms for werewolf and script-killing games in the entertainment yard.

But the rules prohibit gambling. You can play in the mansion, but you cannot gamble.

She didn't want the people in the mansion to be infected by these things and ruin the atmosphere.

As for the mahjong room, settlement is also made using a type of currency that Zhao Yuanzhen specially customized in the system.

Everyone can buy coins when they enter and then go play.

The ratio of coins to silver is 100:1.

This greatly limits the upper limit of gambling.

By the time everyone had learned how to play mahjong, the two shops had been decorated and cleaned.

[Zhang Mahjong Hall] and [Zhang Werewolf Hall] were officially opened and opened with firecrackers.

The trained servants were assigned to various shops, waiting to explain things to and play with the customers who came in.

Both shops are equipped with tea, snacks, sweet soup, etc.

The dessert shop is very close. If someone wants to place an order, they can just go there and place the order.

Dim sum too.

You can just prepare the tea in the shop.

When it first opened, everyone just knew that this was another new thing Zhang had come up with, but they didn't know what it was. When they entered the store, they found out that it was a multiplayer game, and if there were not enough people, they would usually wait.

Wait for a group of people to come into the store, or for the servants to fill in the numbers.

After having fun, this group of rich kids made appointments to play Werewolf, script-killing games and mahjong every day.

These charges are based on time, one person is charged one silver coin per hour.

The shop is open 24 hours a day, except for the first few days when the servants will stay up late to teach everyone how to play. Later, when everyone has learned how to play, it becomes a day and night shift.

There are fewer people on the night shift, and most of those who stay up late to play are veterans who don’t need much supervision.

It's the same at the mahjong parlor. After being taught the rules, people would come together in groups of four.

Except for adding tea and water and changing coins, no one is needed.

If the servants played well, the rewards given by the guests would be theirs alone, and Zhao Yuanzhen didn't care.

So everyone is doing their job conscientiously.

After spending some time on these shops, the yard and workshops on the other side of the fields were almost completed.

There are 50 permanent residents on the farm, with two dormitory buildings, a canteen, three large warehouses, a tool shed, a cowshed, and a hay storage.

The dormitory is also a four-person room, while the female dormitory is a two-person room, where there are fewer female students.

Four cooks, 4 servants, and 20 boys were assigned to the place. There was also a small vacant lot over there, which was used to grow vegetables. The vegetables from this vegetable garden were enough to feed the mansion and the shops.

The workshop in the villa is a replica of the one in Beijing.

Four-person dormitory, free canteen with large windows, and snacks at the special window on the 2nd floor.

There are 11 workshops in total, with 32 people assigned to each workshop.

Two of them are masters brought from Beijing to teach and manage.

The remaining 30 are skilled workers.

The servants I bought were almost sold out after being distributed among several shops, so I had to buy another 350.

330 have been allocated.

Add the remaining ones from before and it makes a total of 50.

There are 10 security guards and 40 patrols divided into two shifts.

Another four people were dispatched from Zhang Xinshu's personal guard team to guard the villa.

These servants also need to learn martial arts early.

Therefore, there are masters who specialize in training in swordsmanship.

The raw materials and machines needed for the workshop had already been delivered.

As the firecrackers rang, all the workshops began to operate.

Phew, all that’s missing is a beauty salon, and the rest is on track.

The decoration of the beauty shop is almost done. All that’s left is to place the furniture and clean the shop.

The technicians have all been trained.

Even the maids in the lobby are now good at mahjong, werewolf, and script-killing.

There are 35 private rooms, including single room, double room, triple room, etc.

培养了50个技师，10个美甲师，30个大堂服务的。6个厨娘。20个粗使婆子。

There were 20 servants assigned to take care of the guests' carriages and horses, and they lived in a small courtyard alone.

After selecting the opening date, Zhao Yuanzhen sent invitations to the ladies and daughters of all the major mansions.

This is different from the capital city. At that time, there was the advertising effect of the Queen Mother, so there was no need to send out special invitations.

Here, Zhao Yuanzhen can only rely on her own reputation.

It was around this time that the people who had been sent out to gather information all sent back news.

Zhang Xinshu was not corrupt at all. He just had a good mother.

His mother, Mrs. Zhang, Zhao Yuanzhen, was a third-rank official.

She is truly a business genius with endless ideas. The shops she opened in the capital are always packed with customers. What's more, her business is not just the profitable shops in the capital.

It is said that the Zhang family has a huge business.

There is also a large ferry crossing on the Yellow River that connects Henan and Hebei. Every month, the rent for shops alone is several million.

Not to mention her own shop and the business at the ferry.

Even a few years ago, the imperial court posted a notice to develop the economy of Yanshan Prefecture and recruit people to work in Yanshan, offering 2 taels of silver per month, with food and accommodation provided.

It turned out that these people were also recruited for Zhao Yuanzhen. The imperial court even represented her, which shows that she is deeply loved by His Majesty.

She owns tens of thousands of acres of fields and mountains in Yanshan.

There is also a large manor with various dormitories, workshops, and canteens.

Even in the border trade market that the court has recently been vigorously developing, it is said that it is difficult to find a shop there, but this Mrs. Zhang seems to have more than 10 shops.

What's more, the newly opened Zhang's shops in Yangzhou Prefecture are all making money one after another.

Basically, one fire breaks out as soon as they are opened, and the whole place is full.

That sweet soup is eaten by my wife and daughter every day.

There are also billiards, mahjong, Werewolf and other games. The sons in the family linger on them every day and line up to give money to others.

Not to mention, the fine salt in the grocery store, which people bought for their own home, had to line up to buy.

It makes me sad just thinking about it.

The turnover of each shop is frighteningly high.

The combined profits of these industries are dozens of times, perhaps even a hundred times, that of their own industries.

Zhang Xinshu, does Prefect Zhang still need to embezzle?

He doesn't even look at the little money in their pockets.

It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others. What kind of business geniuses are these? In just a few years, the wealth they created is more than that of their aristocratic families.

Mr. Zhang also worked hard to achieve his goal. He passed the imperial examination and became a scholar at the age of 13, won the top prize in the provincial examination at the age of 14, and won the third place in the palace examination at the age of 15.

He is also the last disciple of the famous old tutor.

The first-rank General Anguo was his uncle, and his mother, Madam Zhang, was said to be the queen's close friend.

Woohoo! Each of these pieces of news is more heartbreaking than the last.

How can people be so different from each other?

It hurts my heart!

There is also bribery, manipulation and sanctions.

I was really dreaming before.

With just a few of my resources, how can I bribe Magistrate Zhang?

Just one day after the heartbreak, Zhao Yuanzhen's invitations were sent to various mansions, inviting the young ladies and ladies in the mansion to attend the opening of Xinpuzi.

Oh, the new shop is called a beauty salon, and it is said to be another new thing.

No, there is no bottleneck in her creativity, one thing after another.

Damn, so jealous.

The heads of each family were madly jealous in their hearts, but at the same time they had to put on a smile and give instructions to their wives, daughters and other female relatives.

"You must get along well with Madam Zhang. Madam Zhang is a woman that His Majesty trusts very much, and she is also a close friend of the Empress. The Zhang family's businesses are spread all over the country, and their accumulated wealth is rich enough to rival an entire country. You must not offend Madam Zhang."

"Yes, sir. We have our own plans."

"Well, as the mistress, you must control these young ladies and don't let them have any improper ideas. Magistrate Zhang is young and promising, and he can be a good match for the princess. Don't have any improper ideas and bring trouble to the family."

The few people who attended the last banquet bribed the servants of Nancheng Garden and tried to buy the news about Magistrate Zhang. It is said that after the banquet, Mrs. Zhang caught the man, beat him with 30 sticks, and then exiled him.

What a drastic measure this is.

Everyone thought that the matter was over.

Unexpectedly, the next day, Mrs. Zhang took the silver and banknotes that were used to bribe the servant and sent them back.

From that day on, the shameful deeds done by these three families spread throughout Yangzhou Prefecture. The reputation of several families plummeted, and their shop industries were even more damaged.

As for the children in the family, the married daughter was divorced, the son's wife divorced, the engaged one broke off the engagement, and those who had no marriage proposal had no chance of finding a good family, as they probably couldn't find one.

In just one day, this Zhen Shu not only obtained information that the old-time people in Yangzhou Prefecture could not obtain, but also spread it to the whole Yangzhou city. It can be seen that she is a capable and resourceful person.

Anyway, they are ashamed of themselves.

Therefore, I have to warn my daughter early on not to have such wishful dreams. It is better for her to be good friends with him honestly.

"Well, sir, I know. With the examples of those three families, I won't make any mistakes. Don't worry."

Talking about the tragic conditions of those families, they were still frightened and would never dare to break the law again.

"Well, when the time comes, you all should go to the grand opening and show your support."

Oh, being jealous and having to please others at the same time, it’s so annoying.

Prefect Zhang was a murderer in the officialdom, and Mrs. Zhang was a murderer in the business world.

A mother and son who are not human.

When will it be his turn to have such a good thing?

As he was thinking about it, he went to find his son angrily with a stick in his hand.

If you don't give him a beating, you'll keep him for the New Year.

Look at Magistrate Zhang, and then look at him.

Nothing can be achieved without fighting.

beat!
