The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

When Nanny He saw that he didn't say anything, she understood that he was a little stupid. They were all people around the master, and the master happened to be short of staff, so she might as well give him a reminder.

"The master is short of people around him and doesn't need too many useless people."

Her words were so straightforward that Mr. Li understood them even after realizing it belatedly.

Seeing that Nanny He had personally given him the advice, he immediately bowed and said, "I understand."

Nanny He hummed lightly and just looked at him without saying another word.

Under pressure, Mr. Li became serious.

"Madam, I think Fenghe County is a little better than Nanning County, but the people are still living a hard life."

He was originally a commoner and a refugee, and was able to stay because of the kindness of the county lord and her ability to support so many people.

Nanny He nodded slightly at his words and continued to look at him, obviously not satisfied.

Mr. Li swallowed his saliva and said, "I have seen a few merchants here in the past few days, but I don't know what their relationship is with that person."

His words were a little obscure, but Nanny He was a smart person and she was able to hear it.

Hearing this, she frowned slightly.

"There is still a long way to go. Since the master has not yet arrived, we should observe carefully."

This time she brought a total of five thousand taels of silver notes, minus the five hundred taels she spent on buying the house, the two hundred and fifteen taels she spent on buying people, the ten taels she spent on food and lodging on the road, the ten taels she spent on tea at the government office, and the ten taels she spent on rice and flour she bought for the mansion in the past two days.

Because the master had not arrived yet, and in consideration of cost saving, there was no rush to prepare the servants' costumes. He also purchased cloth and other items for the servants, spending a total of twenty taels of cloth to buy them and asked the people in the mansion to hurry up and sew them.

She spent a total of 765 taels of silver, and now she has 4,235 taels of silver left.

Mr. Li thought of the money on Nanny He, and after thinking about it, he spoke.

"Mammy, why don't we buy a few more shops, like the ones in Anren County and Nanning County, and wait for the master to come. It can save a lot of time, and the master can do more things."

After hearing his words, Nanny He's eyes lit up and she gave him an appreciative look.

"Yeah, that's right, they all think about the master. Well, since we have nothing to do right now, let's just walk around and take a look."

When Mr. Li saw that Nanny He accepted his suggestion, he was naturally happy to see it happen.

"Okay, everything will be arranged by Madam."

It’s no wonder that after strolling around for a while, the two of them actually saw a shop they liked, and the landlord was ready to sell it away immediately.

The two of them looked inside and out, then Nanny He nodded with satisfaction and looked at the middle-aged man in gray robes.

"You said this shop was in a hurry, but I see you are still in business."

The landlord explained, "Yes, we will have no choice but to sell them then."

He has to go back to his hometown in his own county as he doesn't have the energy to take care of things here.

When Madam He heard the key words, her eyes moved slightly. "You mean selling?"

The landlord nodded slightly. "Yes, they all signed the contract to sell themselves."

When his wife asked him about it, an idea flashed through his mind, and he quickly spoke.

"If Madam is sincere in wanting to buy a shop or a person, we can discuss the matter."

Nanny He likes decisive people, and after hearing what he said, she also became a little interested.

"If the price is right, I'll take it."

Mr. Li, who was standing next to him, was surprised and wanted to speak, but finally he kept his mouth shut.

Nanny He was the master's teaching nanny, and she came from the palace. She must have her reasons for doing this, and he just had to follow her orders.

The landlord thought about it and felt that the other party was sincere, so he said his ideal price. "If you want the tables, chairs, benches and other items in your shop, I will charge you 500 taels. Our shop has two floors and a backyard, which is definitely a good deal. As for the guys, there are 20 of them in total, and they all signed a death contract. The price is 200 taels. What do you think?"

Nanny He thought about it carefully and felt that it was okay. The shopkeeper, accountant, chef, and waiters were all ready. She only needed to train them a little. This would save her trouble, effort, and most importantly, she could rest assured.

Seeing that she had no expression on her face, the landlord felt anxious. Did she think it was too expensive? But when he really calculated it, it was not expensive at all.

When he was about to speak, Nanny He spoke first, "Okay, then we'll take them all. It's still light now, let's go directly to the government office to notarize them."

Seeing her so straightforward, the landlord said solemnly, "Okay, let's go then."

The notary at the government office did not expect that the county lord's men would come again, and he quickly put on a respectful attitude to greet them.

"I greet Madam He. What brings you here today?"

Madam He was a straightforward person, and she said bluntly, "We are buying a shop and a person, so we need you to notarize it."

Mr. Li noticed Nanny He's look and took out a few hundred coins and stuffed them into his hand.

"Take it and have some tea."

When the notary saw it, he immediately bowed and thanked him.

"Thank you, Madam He. Please wait a moment. I will get it done right away."

Madam He smiled faintly and nodded, stroking her dress and sitting down. A quarter of an hour later, she saw the master coming out of the corner of her eye and slowly put down her teacup.

"Madame He, please take it."

Nanny He and the landlord checked carefully and then said goodbye to the lawyer.

Just as she was walking down the stone steps of the government office, a bloated figure quickly came running towards her.

"and many more."

Nanny He and Mr. Li were both stunned and turned around, looking at the newcomer in confusion.

Seeing the other person's bloated figure, Nanny He frowned slightly and asked, "Who are you?"

Could it be the county magistrate? But this image is really hard to describe.

The county magistrate seemed not to notice the slightly frown on Nanny He's face and went straight to asking in a flattering manner.

"Excuse me, Madam, is the county lady here? I'd like to go and pay her a visit."

When Nanny He heard this, what else was there to not understand? The man in front of them was the invincible county magistrate, and from what he said, he wanted to bribe their master.

After clearing her mind, Nanny He bowed respectfully and said, "Your Excellency, my county lady has not come yet. You don't have to worry. Please don't delay your official duties."

When the landlord heard that it was the county magistrate, he immediately knelt down and paid homage.

"Your humble servant greets you, Your Excellency." Well, he came here just to notarize a document, but he unexpectedly ran into the county magistrate.

Judging from the county magistrate's tone, the wife of the man who bought the shop assistant's job with him was the county lady's woman.

He was stunned for a moment. He was still somewhat worldly-wise. The county princess was a third-rank official, higher than the county magistrate.

County Magistrate Lin Fengye looked down on insignificant people, but in order to make a good impression in front of the county director, he waved his hand kindly.

"No gift."

"Thank you, sir." The landlord stood up tremblingly.

After leaving the government office, Madam He and the landlord came to the main hall of the shop. The landlord glanced at the shopkeeper and motioned him to come out and talk.

"My boss."

"Go call the guys out. I have something to announce."

The shopkeeper looked at Nanny He and understood, then turned around and left to gather everyone together.

The landlord waited for everyone to stand, and then solemnly explained, "Everyone, the shop and you have been taken over by this lady. From now on, you will listen to her."

When everyone heard this, although they were mentally prepared, they were still filled with melancholy when the incident actually happened.

The landlord turned to look at Nanny He and bowed solemnly.

"Seeing that everyone is here, I can't stay any longer, so I'll pack up my things and leave."

Nanny He nodded slightly and asked Mr. Li to help him clean up. She also had her own considerations.
