"Master Marquis is here!"

Jia Qiang stepped out of the carriage first, and what she saw was Youshi's pretty face.

She had come here the day before to familiarize herself with the people inside and get to know the business of each shop so that she could introduce them to each shop.

Behind Ms. You were the second sister You, the third sister You, twelve steward girls, and eight nuns.

Everyone bowed to Jia Qiang. Jia Qiang nodded slightly, turned around and stretched out her hand to the car.

When Ping'er saw this, she blushed with embarrassment, but she was not a little girl after all. Having been the housekeeper of Sister Feng for several years, she knew in her heart that Jia Qiang did not mean to be frivolous, but was trying to make trouble with her in front of everyone.

Therefore, although she was extremely ashamed, she still stretched out her fair and slender right hand, and Jia Qiang took it in her hand and led her out of the car.

Although You couldn't help but feel jealous in her heart when she saw this, not because of Jia Qiang, but because of this power and wealth, she smiled at the people around her and said: "This is the person who will be in charge of us from now on."

Grandma!"

All the nuns and girls went down together and said politely: "Please be safe, grandma!"

Ping'er's face was as red as silk. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No, no, you are mistaken..."

Everyone was surprised. Jia Qiang looked at Ping'er and laughed: "Is it grandma or a girl?"

Ping'er hurriedly said: "It's a girl, it's a girl..."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he said a regretful "Oh!", his pretty face turned red, and water seemed to form in his almond-shaped eyes. He looked at Jia Qiang and yelled: "Master Hou!"

Naturally, the grandma couldn't afford it, and the aunt hadn't shown her face yet, but the girl already wanted to have sex with the people in the room.

After Jia Qiang laughed, she said to the eight strong women: "From now on, Miss Ping'er will represent me here, and you will directly take orders from her."

The eight athletic women all came from Taiping Street. They even followed the escort team in those days. They all have some martial arts skills. They can easily deal with ordinary women.

The eight people came forward and greeted Ping'er again: "Break greetings, Miss!"

Ping'er hurriedly smiled and said: "Moms, please get up quickly."

Although he was shy and flustered before, when it came time to get down to business, Ping'er was calm, steady and generous.

Jia Qiang nodded with satisfaction and said to the twelve steward girls: "Although the eldest grandma is also responsible for all affairs of the West Road Courtyard, she mainly deals with the imperial ladies of various prefectures and introduces them. You can solve the specific business matters by yourselves.

, any troubles that cannot be solved, or any disputes or conflicts arise, will be arbitrated by Miss Ping'er. If even Ping'er can't solve it, she will tell me and I will handle it. It's just that Miss Ping'er has a good temper and is easy to talk to, but I am not.

.So, I don’t want to see anyone deliberately deceiving her. Remember it?”

These twelve steward girls were all purchased from the Jiaofang Bureau, and all of them were well versed in literature and knew the meaning of the scriptures.

They were naturally extremely grateful to be able to come out of a fire pit like Jiaofangsi.

But gratitude, as time goes by, gradually fades away.

So Jia Qiang kept the ugly words in front of him. Even though these girls were all well-born, to him, they were just in charge.

The twelve girls were not fools. Looking at Jia Qiang's attitude towards Ping'er and the indifference towards them, even though they had various thoughts in their hearts, no one dared to disobey and stepped forward to greet Ping'er one after another.

After Ping'er called out, Jia Qiang said to her and Youshi: "One of you is in charge of the outside and the other is in charge of the house. Grandma can also help Ping'er look after her when she has free time."

Youshi naturally agreed and said with a smile: "I am here to assist her, and I will never take advantage of my status to get rich. If Ping'er can do it, I already knew it, so Lord Marquis, don't worry."

Jia Qiang ignored Ping'er's modesty and looked at Second Sister You and Third Sister You.

The two sisters always feel short of breath when in Jia Qiang's presence, even the strong-willed Third Sister You.

After all, unlike Jia Zhen and her son, Jia Qiang had no intention of relying on her sisters.

And they are still living in the Ning Mansion.

With their stunning beauty, without the protection of a wealthy family like Ning Guofu, they would have become playthings in the hands of other powerful people...

In ordinary families, having a daughter who is too beautiful is a recipe for disaster.

Beauty has always been like this.

Jia Qiang looked at the two of them and said: "Grandma said that she wanted to ask you two to help, or you could support yourself. I didn't think so. With Grandma's monthly money and subsidy, I can afford to support three more pairs of sisters. It's just that

Since you think the backstreet is boring and want to come out and do something, my cousin has spoken for you, so just come. But there are rules here, and you can't do whatever you want based on family ties."

Second Sister You was soft-tempered and said hurriedly: "I don't dare."

She helped in the baby room, where she loved the baby walkers, cribs, seesaws and other gadgets.

Third Sister You pursed her lips tightly, looked at Jia Qiang with a fierce and stubborn look, and said, "Have you ever done anything so arrogantly?"

Youshi hurriedly stepped forward and gave her a tug to tell her to be honest.

Sanjie You joined hands in the dining room, which contained cold drinks, desserts and other delicacies, which she found interesting.

She has a strong temper and likes to drink wine, but when she came here she realized that drinking wine is not as satisfying as iced drinks...

Jia Qiang ignored her and finally said to Ping'er: "Go in and have a look around, and you will have an idea in your mind."

"Why!"

Ping'er hurriedly responded, Jia Qiang smiled and nodded and said: "Okay, I'm going to the East Road Courtyard and will pick you up in the evening."

After that, he turned around and left without further ado.

Looking at his back, Ping'er felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

How could she be so indifferent to someone who treated her like this?

I sighed softly in my heart, but I was a little worried about Sister Feng...

…

East Road Courtyard.

Jia Yun and Xue Biao were waiting in front of the door early. When they saw Jia Qiang striding towards them, they hurriedly stepped forward to greet her.

"Is everything ready?"

Jia Qiang didn't go in either, so she called the two of them and asked.

Jia Yun smiled and said: "It's all set."

Jia Qiang nodded and said: "I'm going to go to the Bingma Si Yamen to order my knot in a moment. You guys are waiting here. Do you know the rules and regulations?"

After hearing what Jia Qiang said, Jia Yun and Xue Biao were still a little nervous.

Jia Yun hurriedly said: "Master Hou, if you are not here today, our identity will not be suppressed..."

Although Xue Biao said nothing, he nodded.

Jia Qiang smiled and said: "I'll be back soon. I'll be here when it opens. And you just follow the rules. Don't be afraid of anyone. I can't stay here forever. After all, you have to take care of it. There is only one principle: neither humble nor arrogant.

! We are open to do business, not to be slaves. If you are willing to abide by the rules here, please come in, and if you are not willing, please leave. There are many people left in the East Road Courtyard, and my brother-in-law is staying here today. If you don't behave well, you are welcome.

.”

Jia Yun hesitated and said: "Are you afraid of offending someone? Those who can come today are all noble people..."

Jia Qiang shook her head and said: "You all earn your own face, and there is no rule without rules. We don't favor anyone, and we don't embarrass anyone. The rules are there. What we must violate is not that we offend them, but that they offend us.

Besides, there is a ring in the East Road courtyard. Anyone who feels dissatisfied can just go on the ring."

Jia Yun nodded when she heard this and said with a smile: "In this case, I know it in my heart."

Jia Qiang smiled and said: "As long as you know the number, you can go in and get busy."

After that, he got on his horse and led the people to the Yamen of the Army and Horse Department in Dongcheng.

The stall is getting bigger and bigger, and it is impossible for him to do everything personally.

The significance of being able to cultivate some subordinates who can take charge of their own affairs is even greater than that of the Taiping Guild Hall.

Of course, the main thing is to be on guard against someone using him as a raft for his private life...

…

Daming Palace, Qianqing Gate.

At the first quarter of the hour, the morning dynasty was in full swing, and civil and military officials stood in sequence outside the gates on the left and right.

When the bell rings and the doors open, everyone enters in order, crosses the Jinshui Bridge, and reaches the Danqi Gate of the Huangji Gate, where the east and west face each other.

When the emperor comes to the throne, he blows his whip, the officials of Honglu Temple agree to join the class, and all the civil and military officials join the class.

They bowed once and kowtowed three times, and stood in separate groups.

Today is the first day of the dynasty. All officials of the fourth rank and above in the capital must go to court to listen to government affairs.

Jing Chaoyun, the foreman of the Military Aircraft University, first went to the two lakes and the three provinces of Henan to express the joy of the falling nectar, and the whole court congratulated him.

However, since there is still no rain in Shandong and Gansu provinces, we still cannot take it lightly.

When the Wu family's money was confiscated, they still had to buy grain and transport it to the two provinces in advance to calm the price of grain and prepare for disaster relief in advance.

Although Emperor Long An knew in his heart that even if tens of millions of taels of silver were used as a starting point for this process, it would be considered merciful to have two million taels fall into the mouths of the victims, but at the moment there was no other good way.

In the 30th year of the Jing Dynasty, official administration was relaxed, and almost all officials in the country were corrupt. If you want to rectify it, how can it be done overnight?

What's more, the Supreme Emperor is still here...

The joy of rainfall in the three provinces was extinguished by this terrible incident.
To be continued...
