Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

"Okay, I'm glad the boss is okay. I'll go down first." After Jin Zi finished speaking, he was about to go out, but was stopped by Gu Qiongsi.

"Please send me all the money we have now, plus the deposit."

Gu Qiongsi gave Jinzi instructions, and Jinzi immediately understood that the boss was going to continue to increase the purchase of spices.

"Boss, it's almost the beginning of the month, and it's time to pay the shop assistants their monthly wages. How about I set aside some of it?"

"No need, just bring them all here. These orders can be delivered in the next two days. The balance will naturally be enough to pay everyone their monthly wages." This time, Gu Qiongsi continued to make the decision without reservation to invest all his money.

When Jinzi heard this, he thought about it and agreed and went out.

After a while, Jinzi returned and took out all the silver and banknotes he could.

"Boss, please count it. The total is 4,570 taels. The deposit we received today alone is over 3,000 taels."

Gu Qiongsi found out ten taels of silver and handed over a piece of gold, "You have all worked hard, take this and have tea."

Jinzi quickly thanked the boss on behalf of the guys and went out again with a smile on his face.

Gu Qiongsi used his fingers on the abacus and made a rough calculation, then wrote down the names and quantities of the spices that needed to be purchased, so that Jinzi could see them when he came to collect the account books.

She then had time to drink two sips of water before going back into the incense-making room.

In the next two days, she not only had to complete all the orders, but also had to think seriously about how to delegate some simple tasks to her subordinates so that she only had to do the most critical steps.

After all, the Gu family's incense shops used to be spread across ten states and counties, so their sales volume must have been much higher than their own.

However, only Gu Ziyu could complete it, because there were a lot of tedious and fixed preliminary work, which were all done by the servants in his family.

However, I have just started making incense, so I naturally cannot analyze which steps can be handed over to the next person. I need to figure it out slowly.

Two days after Li Junze left Beijing, Li Junhao still stayed in the Li Mansion, living a life of eating and drinking. From time to time, he asked Xiao Fuzi to go back to the East Palace to choose a few gifts for him from the warehouse and send them to the Gu Mansion.

Xiao Fuzi couldn't stand it anymore, so she took advantage of Li Junhao practicing in the yard and asked Sang Mo,

"Captain Sang, what on earth is going on? Your Highness gives gifts to people from time to time, so why is there no response at all?"

Xiao Fuzi was very confused. He did not follow the whole process, so many things were based on his own guesses. But now he saw that although his prince did not get a response, he was still enjoying it, which made him very puzzled.

Sang Mo smiled playfully, stroking his chin with his fingers. After thinking for a long time, he still didn't know how to describe their current relationship.

Finally, he spread his hands and said, "I don't know either."

"No way, how could you not know? Tell me quickly." Xiao Fuzi didn't believe Sang Mo's words at all, and continued to ask relentlessly.

Sang Mo still smiled ambiguously. He was urged to hurry up, so he simply said, "Hey, even His Highness is not in a hurry."

"Don't worry, why not? Will Madam Xie continue like this? What will our prince do then?"

Xiao Fuzi murmured quietly. Seeing Sang Mo's expression, he immediately understood, "Oh, Your Highness has already understood that there is no possibility of anything happening between Madam Xie and Xie Cheng'an, so he is not in a hurry to let them divorce, right?"

"Xiao Fuzi, you are really smart. No wonder His Highness likes to chat with you." Sang Mo praised in a low voice.

"Don't change the subject. I think there must be something else going on here. Didn't you tell me?" Xiao Fuzi narrowed her eyes, still feeling that Sang Mo was keeping something from her.

"Well, um, I told you, don't tell anyone, okay?" Sang Mo finally couldn't stand Xiao Fuzi's pestering anymore, so he had to tell him the truth.

"Mrs. Xie's mother seems to have known your Highness's intentions, but she didn't say anything. What do you think this means?"

"Ah? How could such a thing happen?"

"Well, that day, Your Highness and I went to Madam Xie's courtyard. That was the time when we climbed over the wall to get in. The maid next to Madam Xie saw us from afar and was so scared that she fell down. She ran back and told Madam Gu."

"and then?"

"And then, so much time has passed, and Madam Gu seems to be unaware of this matter. I guess she must be suspecting that there is something going on between His Highness and her daughter..."

When the two of them said this, a hint of understanding appeared on their faces, and they didn't even notice that Li Junhao had walked up to them.

"What's the matter?" Li Junhao asked the two people who were grinning unhappily while wiping the sweat from his face.

"Ah, Your Highness, please forgive me, Your Highness, please forgive me." After hearing what Li Junhao said, Xiao Fuzi was so scared that he immediately knelt down.

It is a serious crime that can cost you your life to criticize your master. I was careless just now.

When Sang Mo saw him like this, he had no choice but to kneel down and said, "Your Highness, Xiao Fuzi is just worried about your lifelong event, she has no other intentions."

"Now that you've left the palace, stop kneeling here and there. Stand up." Li Junhao said unobtrusively.

There didn't seem to be a hint of anger in his words.

Just as Sang Mo was about to stand up to thank him, he heard Xiao Fuzi shouting, "I dare not, I am wrong, please punish me, Your Highness."

Well, Sang Mo had no choice but to kneel down again and felt embarrassed.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the door, "Your Highness, the Dali Temple Junior Official Yan and the Cabinet Attendant Yu have come to pay their respects to you."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fuzi and Sang Mo quickly stood up, patting the wrinkles on their clothes, and then looked at Li Junhao in panic.

Then he raised his voice and said to the outside, "Let Lord Yan in."

Well, he is still angry with Lord Yu Sicong. Two people came together, but he let one person come in first. Only his prince would do this.

However, as Yan Nangui just stepped over the threshold, a figure quickly flashed behind him. It was Yu Sicong, the cabinet tutor.

He took two quick steps and came in before Yan Nangui. He smiled and said, "Your Highness, have you forgotten me? I came here with Lord Yan. I came here specially to apologize to you."
