As she spoke, she looked at Zhao Yuanxun and Zhu expectantly, waiting for their statements.

Zhu immediately covered her mouth and sobbed.

Zhao Ruxi was dumbfounded.

She imagined that Zhao Yuanxun and Zhu would be proud of her, or directly oppose her, but she never expected that Zhu, a mother who had never been weak, would cry when she heard her words.

"Mom, if I say anything wrong, just hit me. Don't cry." She said anxiously.

She had been very tough and said she didn't care about this couple. But she still had expectations for this couple. They regarded her as their daughter, so she naturally felt admiration for them, so she couldn't really not care.

"Mom, I can't help you. Mom has made you suffer too much." Mrs. Zhu cried so hard that she couldn't breathe. "Girls from other families, apart from paying attention to food, clothing and play all day long, where would they want to go?"

Make money? You, you... you have suffered too much, that's why you are always afraid of not having money, and afraid of looking at other people's faces to eat..."

What Zhao Ruxi said was just to express her feelings. Who knew that Zhu had so many thoughts?

She looked helpless: "Mom, that's what I said. It's not that I really have no food to eat, nor that I'm afraid of being poor. In this world, do you only think about making money when you have no food or clothing? Look at the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

We also open a silver house and a silk and satin shop to do so much business. Even our family wants to earn more property and leave it to our children and grandchildren. It’s not that we really don’t have enough food to eat, right?"

But Mrs. Zhu didn't know what she was thinking about. She cried for a while and then stopped with sobs.

Zhao Yuanxun patted his wife on the shoulder and said to Zhao Ruxi: "If you want to do it, go ahead. It's just that you don't understand anything at the beginning. Don't invest all the money at once, and don't spread the stall too big. Take your time.

Come. If you need help from me or your mother, just ask. We don’t need your filial piety. If you make money, you can keep it for yourself. If you lose money, you are not afraid, your parents will support you. Fourteen years ago

If I apologize to you, I will never do anything sorry to you again. So just don’t worry. We are a family."

"Okay." Zhao Ruxi nodded vigorously.

It is she who uses the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman.

She just reported it to Zhao Yuanxun and the Zhu family tonight, so that they would not be disappointed if they found out that she had a large number of servants and a large amount of property outside. She didn't want them to know how to do it specifically and how many people to buy.

Worried.

Seeing that Zhao Ruxi had nothing else to say, Zhao Yuanxun and his wife got up and left.

Zhao Ruxi had a good night's sleep.

The next day she went to the academy to study for a long time as usual. She didn't have time to have snacks with Xiaoxue at noon, so she went straight out and got on the carriage.

She asked Ma Shengdao: "Are those people here? How many are here?"

When she was in class, Qing Feng, Lu Bo, and Ma Sheng would go to the concierge in Kang Shilin's courtyard to rest.

After seeing her off early this morning, the three of them went over, opened the door to the Wu family courtyard, and waited for the arrival of the bride Wu Zong said. Ma Sheng was responsible for the reception, and Lu Bo went to the street to buy some snacks and fruits.

Feng then went to the Kang Family Painting Academy and borrowed a kitchen stove to boil water, make tea, and entertain the guests.

"Four people came one after another in the morning. The ones from the north of the city and Beining came the earliest, and the ones from the south and west of the city were not late. The one from the east of the city sent a servant to deliver a message, saying that he would take someone to see the house and he would arrive at noon.

Ma Sheng said, "It's probably time to arrive."

These middlemen were all found according to Zhao Ruxi's conditions. She told Wu Zong that one middleman was found in each of the four districts of the capital, southeast, northwest, and Beining. The ones Wu Zong introduced now were all from those places with great reputations.

The middle man.

When Ma Sheng received these people in the morning, he followed Zhao Ruxi's instructions, chatted with them, got to know them, and found out what resources they had and what they were best at.

Now he reported the information he had obtained to Zhao Ruxi, and added: "It was all the government servants from Dali Temple who went to greet them, so these four had pushed the matter forward early in the morning and were very attentive to me."

Ma Sheng and Zhao Ruxi knew very well why they were so attentive. It was not because of his or Suiping's status, but because of the face of Wu Zong of Dali Temple.

This is the benefit of having power.

Zhao Ruxi sighed in her heart and felt even more grateful to Wu Zong.

When they arrived at the Wu Family Courtyard, not only the original four, but also the latecomer from Dongcheng arrived.

The five people all saluted Zhao Ruxi one by one.

"Sit down." Zhao Ruxi was pressed for time and went straight to the point, "I want to buy some houses and have some useful servants, so I'm sorry to bother you all to come here today."

She looked at the middleman in Beining: "Li Zhongren, are there any yards for sale nearby? I want to buy such a big yard. It's best to be close to my master and senior brother's house, and even better if it's right next to it."

Li Zhongren thought for a while and asked: "I wonder what price the girl can offer? The approximate price of a house like this is about three thousand taels. At present, no one has come to us to sell it. But if the price given by the girl is high, I will

You can come and ask."

Zhao Ruxi wants this house for many purposes. Firstly, she can rest here when she is training those people from Dali Temple. Secondly, it can also be used to house and train the servants she bought. Thirdly, Beining is not far from the capital.

She travels every day. In the future, all the shopkeepers and clerks in her shop can live in Beining. This place can be used as a staff dormitory, which is more cost-effective than buying a house in the capital.

For the same price, she could only buy a house in the capital in a place with a mixed bag of good and bad people. Comparing the two, she felt that people would still prefer to travel a little further and live here. This place is mostly the residences of wealthy people or other places.

The hospital is safe and comfortable in every aspect.

She said: "We can negotiate for anything below 4,000 taels. Of course, if his house is particularly good and suits my liking, it is not impossible to negotiate for more than 4,000 taels."

In fact, if you buy it elsewhere, you may not need to pay so much a premium, but why is this place so close to your master and senior brother? There is a house here, and it is convenient to travel between each other. I think Wu Zong also considered this reason when he bought the house.

Bar.

"Okay, Miss Zhao, I will try my best to help you ask." Li Zhongren said.

Zhao Ruxi nodded and looked at the two middlemen in the south and west of the city: "If there are suitable houses in the Wangzhong and Yuzhongs, the price is about 3,000 to 5,000 taels, please help me keep an eye out."

The imperial palace and the inner city of the capital were built in the middle, and were surrounded by four areas: east, west, north and south. The east was the most valuable in China, and officials who could not buy a house in the inner city all lived in the east of the city, so the houses in the east of the city were
