Dressed as a young lady, she became rich by relying on Pinxixi

"If the goal of doing business is to become wealthy, that's enough. But I think we can do a lot more."

"We?" Xu Siyu looked at Lin Yiqing, somewhat accustomed to the name that referred to them together.

For some reason, the Xu family did not put pressure on Xu Siyu, but Xu Siyu felt it under Lin Yiqing's burning gaze.

Xu Siyu suddenly recalled many stories about tyrants and their concubines. The story, applied to herself, was this: "When you have a little darling husband, you want to give him the best in the world."

But, she doesn’t have the best thing in the world yet?

How to possess it suddenly became her pursuit.

Because of male beauty, Xu Siyu became more diligent!

The Lin family initially made their fortune by opening Xiangmanlou with the recipes accumulated by their ancestors.

Later, with the help of Zhou, he ran a grain and oil shop and became the richest man in the county.

By Lin Yiqing's generation, his family had started cloth shops and dyeing factories. Their intention was clear: if they could grasp the two lifelines of food and clothing, they could have long-lasting wealth.

But these are nothing compared to the Zhou family's wealth.

The Zhou family successfully controlled the imperial power by running jewelry stores, calligraphy and painting workshops, and breeding rare birds. They obtained mining development rights and a large amount of land, and then engaged in planting. They opened rice shops, oil mills, and charcoal shops that occupied 20% of the southwest market.

The Lin and Zhou families looked down on her simply because she was weak.

After studying the Lin and Zhou families as benchmarks, she concluded that the new direction was to "seize power and become powerful."

Xu Siyu wants to become bigger and stronger.

Fragrant coal cakes are the most profitable industry of the Xu family workshop. Xu Siyu proposed that the first step to expand it is to increase its production capacity to meet the needs of a larger market.

Develop scale horizontally and develop upstream and downstream vertically.

Xu Siyu wants to open a coal-making workshop near the raw materials.

Outsiders need the consent of the indigenous people of Sanxi Township to move in.

Xu Siyu discussed a long-term vision with the people of Sanxi Township and asked them to sign a consent form.

With this letter of consent and a promise of 10% profit from coal production, Xu Siyu submitted it to Changjia County and bought several mountains around Sanxi Township. The third branch of the Xu family moved the entire coal production workshop to Sanxi Township.

They settled down in Sanxi Township, bought coal nearby and made coal cakes. At the same time, they also developed the mountain bought by Xu Siyu into an orchard, planting pear and jujube trees, the raw materials for coal cakes.

This operation took away half of Xu Siyu's wealth, but she had no doubt about the future capital and profits.

Coal bosses will not lose money until environmental protection concepts take precedence over economic concepts.

Zhao Bo also moved back to Changjia County, took charge of the center, and selected two regional accounting offices, one in Xinshan Village and the other in Sanxi Township.

The expanding business required a large amount of manpower, and since there were not enough villagers, Xu Siyu bought people to train.

The family bought two new maids, one to help cook and boil water, and the other to sweep the yard. Xu Siyu freed Rui'er from chores, helped her dress up every day, and accompanied her on visits, making full use of her resources.

The daffodils bloomed in November, and Mrs. Wang's relationship was secured.

Mrs. Wang invited her to visit Lu Zichong, the former Grand Secretary of Guanwen Hall and the current Tongpan of Heqing Prefecture.

Even though Xu Siyu didn't know much about officialdom, she knew that Lord Lu was being demoted.

But the old man is not decadent. He is full of energy and wants to achieve something in Heqing Mansion.

Mrs. Wang introduced them to each other originally to discuss the issue of editing and re-recording the works of Wenyuan Yinghua.

As a result, Lord Lu talked about daffodils for half of the time and farming for the other half.

Wang Dajia took over the flower business but not the farming business. However, the background board Xu Siyu boldly took over it.

"Only when the granaries are full can there be money to pass on poetry and prose." Lord Lu's priority is the practical issues of people's livelihood.

The main guest became the secondary guest, and Mrs. Wang's face became very ugly, but Xu Siyu pretended not to see it.

The Wang family took her directly to see Lu Tongpan, thinking that they were "getting something for nothing". They wanted to use the meeting with Lu Tongpan to save money on buying flowers, and then Xu Siyu would be a bridge to do her own thing.

"I have an empty shop here. Miss Xu, please open your business to the capital city so that you can help me take care of the flowers."

The shop that Tongpan refers to must be a place with a good location that is hard to come by even if you have money.

Xu Siyu thanked Lord Lu with a particularly sweet smile.

From a workshop and a stall in town to a shop loft halfway up the mountain at the edge of the county, and by cultivating flowers and trees in the mountains, the Xu family has become a well-known family in Changjia County.

Now, this business is growing bigger and bigger and is about to reach the provincial capital.

Not to mention other things, if one business from the Tongpan Mansion is won, people will be willing to buy other businesses. This is just like how Xu Siyu was able to get many orders in Changjia County through Mrs. Hong. She can already hear the sound of silver and money rustling.

She was happy and gave Lady Wang and Pan Lu each a pot of their favorite flowers.

winter solstice.

Xu Wangshi reminded Xu Siyu to send gifts to the Lin family.

According to custom, the daughter-in-law should give winter clothes and shoes to her parents-in-law on this day.

A long time ago, Xu Wangshi asked Xu Siyu to prepare it, and on this day, she would naturally watch her send it out.

After Lin Yiqing moved into Jiangyu Pavilion, the Lin family did not have any special attitude towards him. Apart from the eldest brother of the Lin family coming to visit him, nothing unusual seemed to have happened.

The Lin family did not cause trouble for the Xu family, nor did they suppress Xu Siyu's business.

Everything was fine, as if nothing had happened.

"An ugly daughter-in-law meets her parents-in-law." With the mentality of a daughter-in-law, Xu Siyu naturally felt fear towards Lin's father and mother.

Lin Yiqing naturally had to accompany Xu Siyu. Along the way, he kept soothing her nervousness and told her that if she informed him early, his parents would not make things difficult for her.

But Xu Siyu didn't dare to relax. She thought that if she could deliver the gift to the Lin residence today and no one threw it out in front of her, it would be considered as the Lin family giving her respect.

She never thought that she could be invited in.

Walking around the winding corridor, you will see a scene every five steps and a pavilion every ten steps in Lin’s house, with carved beams and painted buildings, and stacked floors and pavilions.

Xu Siyu nervously followed Lin Yiqing and walked slowly. No matter how beautiful the scenery in the garden was, she had no intention of appreciating it.

finally reached.

The whole family sat around the fire in the living room, all looking in the direction where she and Lin Yiqing were walking outside.

Xu Siyu straightened her dress and walked in with Rui'er's support.

When she took her first step into the flower hall, she quickly glanced at the situation inside the hall and found that there were really a lot of people.

Mr. and Mrs. Lin sat in the main seats in the main hall. Not only were the chairs on both sides filled with people, but there were also several gorgeously dressed women sitting in the side hall, who were presumably also relatives of the Lin family.

Tsk tsk tsk, are they going to judge her?

After Lin Yiqing greeted Lin's father and mother first, Xu Siyu stepped forward and bowed properly, "Siyu greets Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin."

Xu Siyu asked Lin Yiqing about the titles of Lin's father and mother. Master and Madam felt too distant, and of course father-in-law and mother-in-law were not appropriate now either.

"Okay, okay. Yinyue, find a seat for Miss Xu." Master Lin still looked forgiving and kind, and asked the maid to add two stools to the flower table.
