The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Song Yuntang got off the mule cart, and Baosheng, who had been ordered by Yao to wait at the door, hurried forward and bowed.

"Miss Song, Madam is already waiting for you in the courtyard. I will lead you there."

Song Yuntang nodded, "Please lead the way, Miss Baosheng."

She took a gift box from the mule cart, asked Xu Wencheng to find a place to wait for her, and then followed Baosheng into the Zhu Mansion.

"I heard a few days ago that you came to the county town and united with more than 40 households in Cile Town to overthrow the local evil landlord Huang. I thought you would come to see me after you accomplished that important task, but I didn't expect you to come at this time."

As soon as I stepped into Yao's yard, I heard her sour voice.

Yao was sitting in the pavilion where she played mahjong with her last time. When she saw her coming, she waved and motioned her to come over.

"It's my fault for being late." Song Yuntang came closer and bowed slightly, "Greetings, Madam Zhu."

"Why are you being so polite to me? Come and sit down." Yao pushed the mahjong board in front of her. "It's been so long since we last played, but do you still remember? Let's have a couple of rounds first."

Song Yuntang smiled.

"Being respectful is worse than obeying orders."

Yao looked at the two girls, Baosheng and Baozhu, standing beside her.

"You guys sit down too and play a couple of rounds with us."

Baozhu took a step back, his face full of fear.

"We lost so much last time, how can we afford to waste Madam's money?"

Last time, she lost twenty taels of silver to the lady.

As the lady's maid, her monthly salary was only two taels of silver, and it would take her nearly a year to save up twenty taels.

Song Yuntang also felt that it was inappropriate to use silver as a bet, whether winning or losing.

"Mrs. Zhu, how about we try a different game today?"

Yao looked at her with interest.

"What kind of gameplay?"

Looking closely, I found that Miss Song had delicate features, red lips, white teeth, and skin as smooth as a baby's. She was very pretty.

I couldn't help but look in her direction twice more.

Song Yuntang's eyebrows curved, "The loser will have a note stuck on his face."

When Yao heard this, she thought that it was an entertainment after all and didn't necessarily require money. Posting a note would also be a good idea, so she told Baosheng to prepare it.

Since they didn't have to lose money today, Baosheng and Baozhu were not as nervous as last time. They played normally and made fewer mistakes while playing.

After a few laps.

The four fought evenly.

There were notes taped to everyone's face.

Yao smiled happily, even happier than when she won the silver.

"Tang'er, you came here today not just to play mahjong with me, right?"

Song Yuntang handed the gift box she brought in the direction of Yao.

"I'm mainly here to give Madam a gift, and by the way, I'd like to ask Madam to do me a favor."

Yao had a smile on her face.

"You said."

Song Yuntang looked at her and said, "Last time, Madam told me about opening a clinic. I don't want the ladies in the county to spend money, but I have a business and I want to make money with everyone."

Hearing that there was a profitable business, Yao became interested.

"what business?"

"It's all in this box," Song Yuntang said, patting the gift box on the table. "I've prepared twenty of the same gifts. I hope Madam can give them to the ladies who wanted to invest in my clinic last time. It'll be my apology to you all."

"Well, it's no big deal." Yao waved her hand and said, "We just mentioned it last time when we were playing mahjong together. Our purpose was just to help you settle down in the county town so that you would have a place to go if you needed medical treatment in the future. Now that you are willing to come to the county town, it is naturally up to you to decide whether you want us to get involved or not. We have no objection."

Song Yuntang smiled.

"That's true, but I'm new here, and I'd feel uneasy if I didn't express my gratitude. Besides, I'm looking forward to working with those ladies and making money together."

Yao looked at her with a smile.

"You're quite clever, little girl. This gives us a reason to give you gifts. If the ladies think your gifts are good, they'll probably rush to you to give them."

She opened the gift box at hand and looked at the items inside one by one.

"Putting aside your box of rouge, it seems that all the pills in here are available in Wan Qingsi in the county."

Things used to tie up hair are not cheap.

One piece costs two or three taels, and some even cost more than ten taels, but they are still in great demand.

"How are the sales of Wan Qingsi pills?" Song Yuntang asked.

Yao thought about it.

"It was just average before, but it seems to have been improved recently. Everyone's been rushing to buy it these days. I heard it was amazing, so I asked Baosheng to buy a blood-nourishing pill for my old lady. It's really working. The old lady's complexion has become much rosier recently, and she's become more energetic."

The girl arched her brows.

"To be honest, Madam, the pills that Wan Qingsi improved came from me."

"really?"

"Of course it's true." Song Yuntang said, "If you don't believe it, you'll know after you use my things."

Yao found a blood-nourishing pill from the box and handed it to Baosheng.

"Baosheng, take this to the old lady."

"Yes."

Baosheng took the bottle, stood up and left the yard.

Yao tore off two pieces of paper that were blocking her vision, then took out the box of rouge from the box and looked at it.

Seeing this, Song Yuntang hurriedly tore off the note on his cheek.

"This is the rouge I used on my face today. What do you think, Madam?"

"Very good." Yao smiled and said, "I was thinking your skin was extra delicate today. I wonder if you used something like this."

She has been in the circle of ladies and young ladies for many years, so she naturally knows that it is easy to make money from women, especially from rouge and powder.

Sometimes women are willing to pay any price for their face.

"I wonder how you plan to run this business?"

Song Yuntang expressed his thoughts.

"Anyang County already has Wan Qingsi. I'm thinking of opening my first shop in the nearby Yingshan City, and then expanding to every city in Daxia. I'll keep 55% of the shop's profits for myself, and 5% of every 2,000 taels of silver I earn from the remaining 45%. I'll have the power to run and make decisions about the shop, and I'll also be responsible for developing and launching the products. You don't have to do anything. The annual dividends will be settled on the 25th day of the 12th lunar month."

Yao thought for a moment and looked at Baozhu beside her.

"Go and get the ten thousand taels of silver in my treasury."

"Yes."

As Baozhu said this, he hurriedly took the key and went to the warehouse. After a while, he took out a thick stack of silver notes worth 10,000 taels. It was the first time that Song Yuntang had seen so much silver.

I couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

She knew that the county magistrate's wife had some background, but she didn't know that she had so much money that she could easily take out ten thousand taels of cash.

Or maybe she is very good at business.

Or maybe it was the confidence given by her parents.

However, judging from Yao's personality, she should be someone who can make a living outside.
