Chapter 124 Suzhou Garden

The rest are all women.

There are eight people.

The oldest is just thirty years old and the youngest is only twelve years old. It just so happens that the oldest and the youngest are a mother and daughter.

Yazi said: "Yu's clever mind and skillful hands are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."

The woman's surname is Yu, and she is called Yuhong. Her girl's name is Yuzhen.

Yuhong was originally a priest in a brothel. She heard that she had also been a courtesan. Later, she was redeemed as a concubine. Unfortunately, there was an unexpected situation in the world. Her husband died of illness. Her mother and daughter were driven out as disaster stars. She barely survived for a while and spent all her money, so she had to come out to find work.

Because she rented Yazi's house and recognized Yazi's wife, she begged him, and Yazi brought her and her daughter over.

Yazi explained: "Mr. Lu, although Yu's foundation is not good, she knows a lot of things; she can't do anything; she can't do anything with her piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, female red sewing, singing and dancing. She looks like this, and ordinary people can't afford to eat. I think Mr. Lu, you are not an ordinary person, so I inform her and bring her over. If Mr. Lu, you are not satisfied, the villain will take her away."

Yuhong is undoubtedly a stunning beauty. At the age of thirties, just like the peach in May, it is ripe. Her delicate and slightly pale face, her white-washed but regular clothes, and her expression of pity that I felt, I was afraid that the man would not be able to hold back when he saw it.

Lu Hengduo looked at her a few times and nodded: "If you bring it, stay."

Then she called her over: "Because I don't live here forever, this garden needs a housekeeper. When your background and experience can be used to deal with people and take charge of the internal affairs in the garden, you will be a housekeeper of the internal affairs. When I am not here, I will take my garden forward."

Yuhong was overjoyed when she heard this and hurriedly gave a gift: "Thank you for taking it in, thank you for taking it in."

Lu Heng waved his hand: "Just call me at the boss."

Then he said to others: "You will work in my garden from now on. Clean and maintain the garden. I have always been a generous person and will not teach you to suffer losses. But if you disobey me and make some sneaky things, don't blame me for being ruthless. This is called "Don't say it's not to be unpredictable."

A group of people hurriedly said, "I dare not."

Lu Heng said to Yazi again: "Where are there any people like the Earth Tiger in Suzhou City?"

Yazi hurriedly said, "If you say you are sitting on the ground tiger, it must be Mr. Zhao."

His voice lowered: "Mr. Lu, Mr. Zhao is not an idiot. He has a good relationship with the government and foreigners. He still has a thug under his command..."

Lu Heng laughed: "It's pretty good."

He said, "I think you are smart in your work, are you interested in working as a foreign affairs housekeeper in my garden?"

Yazi hesitated for a moment and said, "I do."

It is actually not a good thing to do teeth in the dental shop. First, it has a bad reputation, and second, it has a bad income. Although there is an agency fee for each order, Datou took the teeth in the dental shop, so the lower teeth would not get much money.

If you follow a big shot and keep your income safe from drought and flood, it is naturally the best.

In Yazi's eyes, Lu Heng is a big shot. Whoever takes 20,000 taels of silver without blinking his eyes? What is that not a big shot?

Lu Heng did see that he was smart in his work and had a moment of intention.

This garden is so big, someone must be in charge of it. The inner house is in charge of it, and someone must be in charge of foreign affairs. This tooth is smart and it is very suitable to do foreign affairs. Lu Heng had no one at hand, so he had this idea.

Lu Heng said: "I will not treat you badly when dealing with me."

Then he said, "It just so happens that you can do something here for me. Since Mr. Zhao is a land tiger from Suzhou, you invite him to my garden in my name, and you say I will treat him to a meal."

Yazi's heart moved, is this a pier?

He immediately agreed: "Don't worry, Master, I'll do it now."

Lu Heng said: "Don't worry."

He asked all these people to come around and said, "There is no unfair treatment for me. The wages are sold at 20% higher than the market."

Then he said, "Yuhong, come here."

Yuhong was busy and said to Lu Heng's side.

Lu Heng said: "I don't care about what you used to do. If you do things with me, you have to be at ease. If I ask you to take care of your internal affairs, then the expenses will be left to you."

As he said that, he touched her two silver notes.

"This money is left to you first. The expenses in the garden and the expenses of foreign affairs in the teeth are all here to collect the money. These two thousand taels are not much, I believe you have seen it on the market, so you won't be disappointed, right?"

Two thousand taels of silver are indeed not much here in Lu Heng. But for others besides Yuhong, it is undoubtedly a huge fortune. Nowadays, it is already amazing that ordinary people can earn ten taels of silver a year.

After all, Yuhong has a different background. One is that she has been in a brothel, and the other is that she has been a concubine with a wealthy family. Her eyes are not that shallow.

As for Lu Heng just handing over the money to her, Lu Heng herself doesn't care much about this. Besides, Yu Hong's orphan and widowed mother can run to where after taking the money?

Running out and becoming a hot commodity, is it swallowed by people in one bite?

Smart people will never do anything random.

After handing over the small treasury of the garden to Yuhong, Lu Heng turned around and threw some money to Yazi: "Go and invite Mr. Zhao, and buy two tables of meals on the way and let the people from the restaurant deliver them."

"Today the garden is empty and there is no fireworks. From tomorrow, I will have to cook at home."

He also said: "You can recruit two more followers to help you do your business."

Yazi Huan left happily with the money.

Yuhong is indeed a family-owned man. She arranged the servants and maids here and came to meet Lu Heng: "Master, everything has been arranged."

Lu Heng looked at it and the arrangement was indeed very good. It was fine to say that it was well organized. Where to live, what to do, how to do, how to clean it up, are all very meticulous.

Nodded with satisfaction, Lu Heng said: "You arrange someone to wait at the gate. When the tiger sitting in the ground arrives, you will be attracted to see me."

Yuhong hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Zhao, a servant in Suzhou City, also knows it. I heard that he is a very evil and abused person. The master is not prepared for anything, so he invited him to the door, afraid that is..."

Lu Heng laughed: "You are meticulous."

Then he said, "You said that if I asked Yazi to ask the Tiger to come to the door, would you please curry favor with him? A joke. I don't even look at such a bad person. But I bought a garden here, but I don't live there forever. I have to have a safety guarantee. Otherwise, if I am not in Suzhou and people in a garden are bullied, what should I do then?"

Yuhong showed a look of surprise on her delicate face.

Lu Heng waved his hand: "If you have too many, please don't worry, I have my own area."

As he said that, he also pinched the face of the little girl Yuzhen hiding beside Yuhong.

Although this little girl has not opened yet, she already has a trace of her mother. When she grows up, she will be a disaster again.

Seeing that Lu Heng had something to do, Yuhong bowed slightly and went out gracefully.

Even his daughter was left behind and let Lu Heng tease her. I don’t know if she was relieved by Lu Heng or expressed her loyalty.

Before the evening, the restaurant staff first came to deliver food and delicacies.

Lu Heng took a few dishes and tasted them casually, and gave the rest to the servants.

Soon, Yazi came back. Sure enough, this guy called two followers. It was said that they were all Yazi, and they did not do it well. Yazi went and said that they followed him.

Yazi said: "Master, then Master Zhao has agreed and will come before dark."

Lu Heng said: "It's fine if you agree. Otherwise, I'll have to go there myself, so I'll have to worry."
