100, arrangement
It was not until the evening that Ding Zhong came to Shi Jinrou and told her: All the instructions were done. Today was near noon, Zhang Biao and General Ran's subordinates left Yi'an and returned to Beijing. The yard was locked and temporarily deserted.
After hearing this, Shi Jinrou nodded with satisfaction and asked again: "Has the arrangements been made there by the owner of Manor Di?"
Ding Zhong replied: "When I was picking up Xiao Lian, all three things were arranged. Master Di asked me to tell the young master, please rest assured! He will not disappoint the young master."
Shi Jinrou nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work!"
Ding Zhong asked without hesitation, "What are your plans next?"
Shi Jinrou smiled sweetly and said, "Do nothing else, just do business wholeheartedly!"
Then, she said a little mischievously: "It is easy to do things if you have money! When you have money, those who get married and those who get married will all be in a glorious way!"
Ding Zhong glanced at Shi Jinrou with some dissatisfaction for the first time and said, "Young Master, let's settle yourself first. It's hard to guess the master's thoughts!"
Shi Jinrou said indifferently: "It's okay, it's still early! Besides, there must be a road before the car arrives at the mountain. Who knows what changes will happen in three or two years?"
Yes, things are impermanent, Shi Jinrou's emotional journey may be very smooth, and there may be bumps. Although things are done by man, how many are there in the reach of manpower?
After Ding Zhong left, Shi Jinrou couldn't help but think of Ran Yicheng again, and the portrait Shi Xiaohong said...
…………
In the next few days, the back of the county government office seemed very busy because Shi Jinrou bought two new maids and made adjustments to everyone's residence.
After hearing that Shi Jinrou wanted to buy a maid, Gu's mother took the initiative to find her and said she could consider buying the two girls who are currently working in the kitchen.
Shi Jinrou was originally worried that she would not want her daughter to sell herself as a slave, but she did not expect that the parents of the two girls not only agreed to sell the child to the Shi Mansion, but also kept kowtowing to Mrs. Gu to thank her!
Although Ishihara Hai was suspended from his post, the parents of the two children still believed that Lord Shi would be the county magistrate again and could be a maid at the county magistrate's house. For their daughter, it was a great blessing. So they happily sent their children to Shi Jinrou and handed them a contract for their two children with great gratitude.
Shi Jinrou felt uncomfortable. The two children were not old, one was twelve and the other was thirteen, and they were about the same age as her, so they were easily sold by their parents.
"Which parents' heart is not grown by flesh? They are their own flesh and blood!" Shi Jinrou sighed in her heart, and also made up her mind not to treat her two children unfairly.
She named the two children: Biyun and Biyue respectively. Among them, Biyun became her maid, while Biyue mainly served Xiuhe.
Xiuhe did not object, but she secretly instructed Biyun and Biyue that she would still take care of the young master's daily life in the future. They were responsible for cleaning the yard and house and doing other chores.
Biyun and Biyue naturally nodded and responded.
Because considering the marriage between Shui Sheng and Xiuhe, Shi Jinrou made some adjustments to everyone's residence.
Next to the yard of Shui Sheng and Wei Qinghong, there was originally a yard that was empty and piled up with a lot of debris. Shi Jinrou ordered people to clean up the yard and repaint and repair it. Afterwards, Shui Sheng lived in the yard alone.
Because Biyun and Biyue had just arrived, Shi Jinrou arranged for them to live in the same yard with Gu’s mother for the time being.
After arranging the residence, Shi Jinrou called Wei Qinghong again and asked him to go home to help buy a few dogs to come to the home to protect the hospital, and he was responsible for feeding him every day.
Wei Qinghong quickly got things done and kept the dogs in various yards as Shi Jinrou ordered.
After dealing with these trivial matters, Shi Jinrou secretly thought about it and thought that she should buy a few more servants if she had the chance. However, there is no hurry at the moment, and the more people, the more complicated they are, which is not conducive to implementing the plan for himself! At least, we have to wait until the Duan family or father is reinstated.
In addition to the mansion, Shi Jinrou did not forget about the opening and construction of the inn. Through the recommendations of some bosses in Yi'an, Ding Zhong finally found a shopkeeper named Ma, a local from Yi'an. This person used to be the boss and shopkeeper, but later because of some changes in his family, he had to sell his shop.
Shi Jinrou met with Zhangkeeper Ma. Seeing that the man was quite honest and kind, he signed a contract with him and asked him to be the new shopkeeper of Yuanlai Inn.
Manager Ma did not disappoint Shi Jinrou. Soon he recruited all the local people in Yian. Moreover, while renovating some of the burned courtyards and rooms in the inn, he made full use of the inn to open a complete courtyard!
Needless to say, Shi Quan's ability is in charge of the business. He has had experience in expanding the wharf and building a restaurant. It is no problem for him to build a freight yard, so the construction of the freight yard also began.
Without further ado, on the second day of the twelfth lunar month, Ishihara took all the second floors of a ship-shaped restaurant at the wharf, and placed them on a banquet. He invited many well-known bosses, shopkeepers, some famous scholars, gentry, and of course some brothers from the county yamen.
Near noon, Shihara Hai said to everyone: "My fellow villagers, since Shi came to Yi'an to be the county magistrate, he has thanked everyone for his wrong love and helped Shi do some meager things for Yi'an! It was just that his subordinates were incompetent, which led to many cases in Yi'an in the past few days, especially the inn bloody crimes, which was even more inhumane and outrageous! Shi was ashamed of the people of Yi'an, and has not brought the murderers of the inn bloody crimes to justice so far. He was suspended from his post as a county magistrate because of his poor investigation. I believe everyone has heard of this, right?"
Someone said below: "I heard something."
Some people also said: "I believe that the court will have its own opinions if you don't do Lord Shi's affairs!"
Some yamen runners even shouted: "Mr. Shi is wronged!"
