Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

"The little girl has no idea how high the heavens are and how deep the earth is!" The other party obviously did not expect Anan to be like this. His smile froze and he shouted angrily.

There was a sudden silence.

Anan remained calm and asked in a low voice: "According to your opinion, what should we do now? Should we elect a new manager?"

The man didn't expect Anan to be so direct and was choked for a moment.

Anan didn't leave him any room, stared at him and asked with a smile: "Who should we nominate as the best candidate?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the noise below stopped abruptly.

"Ajue and I have been brothers for decades and have always been in harmony. I was just anxious and didn't do the job well, which delayed everyone's livelihood. I said a few more words. The girl said this and that, are you sure that I took advantage of the situation to seek the position of housekeeper?" Being exposed in public, he was a little embarrassed, his face flushed, and he said angrily, "Who do you think I am?"

No one dared to say anything.

Anan changed to a more comfortable sitting position and said with a smile: "Since no one has this intention and is just worried about the errand, then this matter is simple."

Everyone looked at her.

"If it is an ordinary matter that requires instructions, you can handle it according to the usual method." When she said this, several managers thought it was a good idea, but they didn't want to get involved in this mess, so they just went.

There are fewer people in the courtyard.

Anan looked at the rest of the people and laughed softly, "For matters that are not urgent and can be delayed for a day or two, please come back later."

After hearing this, a few more people left the yard.

In addition to the man with goatee, there were three or four other people left in the hall, all with anxious looks on their faces.

Anan smiled and said, "Please speak, everyone."

Several people looked at each other and cast their eyes on the man with goatee.

Goatbeard was furious to see that most people had left, but seeing that she always had a smile on her face, and was very efficient and decisive in her words and deeds, he was not surprised by the rumor that Wang Jue and his wife had taken in a pair of sisters who had fallen on hard times in Beijing. A girl from a wealthy family would always have some experience, and she was only eighteen or nineteen years old. She might have only learned housekeeping for two years, and her prestige was just a bluff. If anything really happened, she would definitely be laughed at.

Therefore, he said to everyone: "Since the girl asked you questions, why not speak directly! Anyway, we are all concerned about our work, so there is no need to hide it, and we will also avoid the suspicion of usurping the throne and seeking power."

They were not stupid and could naturally hear the fueling of the fire in his words. They had some concerns at first, but after being instigated, if they did not speak out, they would be branded as those seeking power and usurping the throne. What's more, they really could not afford to delay the matters at hand.

One of the younger stewards made up his mind, stepped forward and spoke first: "Miss, the food stored in the farm is only enough for half a month. We must make a decision."

Anan lowered her head and thought, feeling a little strange. With the hundred acres of fertile land that Su Cheng liked, she still had to purchase food from outside? But now was not the time to ask more questions. She asked him in a low voice, "On ordinary days, how many days does it take for farmers to buy food?"

The manager said honestly, "There are many people in the farm, and the demand for food is also great. Although we are not short of food in Yongning, the quality varies. Whether it is collected from individual traders or ordered from merchants, we have to control the quality and negotiate the price. Even if it is the fastest, it will take one or two months to prepare everything. So, we have to start now."

Everyone stared at Anan, especially the man with goatee, who looked a little smug, as if they were seeing if she had the courage and confidence to speak.
