"Mrs. Eighth, come in quickly and sit down." When Chang Xi saw Bai, she was surprised at first, then smiled and welcomed her into the room, "Dongli, hurry up and serve tea."

Bai Shi held Chang Xi's hand affectionately, "Didn't I scare you?"

Chang Xi laughed loudly, "You didn't bring someone to break down my courtyard door, how could I be scared?"

When Bai heard this, her face immediately turned red. Fortunately, her skin was not naturally that delicate and white, so it was not too obvious, which kept her from being too embarrassed.

At this time, she hurriedly waved her hand and said, "It's all in the past. Madam Chang, don't mention it anymore. I still regret it. I was used as a spearman by Fang Fan. Fortunately, we couldn't have fought each other."

We know each other." Then he laughed heartily, without any grudge from the past.

Chang Xi looked at Bai like this and was really happy for her. She just said, let's live a good life and don't be a resentful wife who works hard. That job is too tiring and useless.

"I thought Mrs. Eighth Young Master would stay at her parents' house for a few more days and give Mr. Eighth a good hand, otherwise he wouldn't know how to cherish her."

Mr. Bai sighed, "That's what I originally thought, but yesterday he came to me and told me that if I want to cooperate with you on tea bricks, I must agree. He also said that it was one of the conditions you set. When I heard it, it didn't matter.

It’s reliable, but I’m afraid he’s not a serious person, so I’ll come back as soon as possible.”

Although she said this, Chang Xi felt that Bai had taken advantage of this step to step down. She not only supported Lao Ba's career, but also did not lose face. It can be said that during this period of time in her natal family, her natal family probably taught her a lot about how to behave.

Much smarter than before.

Bai Shi smiled bitterly, "To tell you the truth, I thought he was an honest and progressive person when I married him, but after marrying him, I realized that he was exactly what he said.

Of..."

"On the outside is gold and jade, but inside is decay."

Hearing what Chang Xi said, Mr. Bai hurriedly slapped his thigh and said, "That's it. Look at my brain. I've been thinking about this for a long time. He's just a meal bag with a glass of wine." Then he held Chang Xi tightly.

hand, "If he is doing business with other people, I will definitely not worry. Who knows whether he will be taken to the ditch? After all, he has so many friends outside, but you are different, Mrs. Chang, you

You have to help me keep an eye on him..."

When Chang Xi heard this, was it okay?

Didn’t she become the aunt of the kindergarten?

Besides, Xie Laoba is already an adult or an adult with children. How can she keep an eye on him?

So she hurriedly withdrew her hand and immediately said righteously, "Mrs. Eighth Young Master, I can't bear your words. Mr. Xie Eighth is not a child anymore. How can I look after him? Otherwise,

You take Mr. Jie Ba back, tie him with a dog leash, and hang it on your belt to make sure everything is safe, what do you think?"

Although the last words were meant as a joke, Mr. Bai could tell that Chang Xi was unhappy, so he hurriedly explained, "That's what I said, it's best to give him more work so that he doesn't have time to mess around."

This is feasible, and she has a lot of trivial things to do at the beginning of her business. Since she plans to support Jie Ming as a professional manager, she naturally has to make the best use of her resources.

Even though Jie Ming is an insignificant person, he has a reputation as a scholar, otherwise the Jie family would not let him idle around and cause trouble every day.

However, this person probably has no ambition. He gave up immediately after failing the examination and relied on his family to make a living. Now that Mr. Xie stopped his money, he is thinking of finding another way out.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Eighth Young Master, but I'm afraid that if he becomes busy, he will have less time to spend with you and your children..."

Mr. Bai waved his hand carelessly, "Who wants to be with him every day? When I see his face now, I think of the Fang family, and I don't even want to see him. I would be less worried if he doesn't come back.

.”

This should also be true. Most women will have this kind of mentality towards their cheating husbands. Although in ancient times, men were allowed to take concubines and find women outside, but the situation of the Jie family is special, so that is another matter.

Speaking of this, Mr. Bai said with an embarrassed look, "Ms. Chang, I heard that this tea brick business is very promising. I wonder if I can take a share in it?"

Chang Xi raised his eyebrows in surprise. It turned out that Bai Shi had this idea in rushing back. That's right.

, no one would mind having too much money, especially someone like Jie Laoba who relies on his family for everything. It’s no wonder that Mr. Bai has other ideas.

"Mrs. Eighth, do you want to invest your own money, or your husband and wife's joint property?"

"Is there any difference?"

Mr. Bai looked puzzled. Jie Laoba had also brought back some money for her to keep over the years, so she understood what Chang Xi meant when she heard the common property of husband and wife.

"Why not?" Chang Xi smiled and said, "The difference is huge. Let's put it this way, Mrs. Eighth Young Master, if you use your dowry to invest in shares, then the dividends will be directly counted as the income generated by your dowry. No matter when, this money

It's all yours, no one can take it away."

The "Dayu Law" stipulates this article very strictly. A woman's dowry will always belong to the woman personally. Even her husband's family or her natal family cannot take it away. If a woman is divorced or becomes a widow, she can also take away this money.

, at your own discretion.

After a woman dies, this property will be distributed equally to her children, and her husband's family and her natal family will not interfere.

Of course, if a woman has no children, then her mother's family has the right to take back the dowry. In short, no matter what the situation, it will not be at the advantage of her husband's family, which can be regarded as protecting the woman's private property to the greatest extent.

When Bai heard Chang Xi's analysis, she was suddenly enlightened and her eyes were opened. She had never thought about this before, and no one in her family had ever taught her about it.

However, before getting married, her mother still told her not to use the dowry easily after marriage. She has always obeyed her mother's words obediently. No matter when her husband came back crying and complained about how much money he owed, she still refused to use the dowry to help him, so that her dowry is still preserved to this day.

intact.

Chang Xi was not surprised at all by the fact that Mr. Bai was legally illiterate. At that time in her previous life, there were still many people in remote areas who were legally illiterate, and the work of popularizing the law was always urgent.

Mrs. Bai sat next to Chang Xi with a grateful look on her face, "Mrs. Chang, it's a good thing you told me this, otherwise I wouldn't have thought of it. Yes, you can't give a man an easy way. Money must be in your hands for the most real thing."

, we cannot let him use it to please the vixens outside."

Chang Xi has long been accustomed to this kind of thinking of married women, "Mrs. Eighth is right to think so. Only when you have money in your hands can you always have confidence."

Bai Shi nodded sharply in agreement. Thinking of Chang Xi's identity, she immediately understood why Chang Xi worked so hard to make money. The money earned belongs to her, so of course she has to work hard.

After thinking about it, she hurriedly said, "Ms. Chang, I still have a few good shops under my name. Do you need to use them? If necessary, I will have people free up the shops..."

Chang Xi rarely envied others, but when she heard Mr. Bai talk about the dowry shop, she still felt a rare feeling of envy. A woman's back can be straightened only by the strength of her mother's family.

But she soon felt relieved. Starting from scratch was the goal she set for herself. Since she had no advantage in her life, she would work hard to become the first generation boss.

Anyway, the boss never gives up.

She persuaded Mr. Bai to recommend himself, "I appreciate Mrs. Eighth's kindness, but this business really doesn't need it. Let me tell you this, prepare the money first, we will always need it in the future.

When the time comes, it will definitely count as one share of the eighth young lady’s wife, how about that?”

In other words, don't think about the tea brick business. She has other plans for this business and will not easily accept other people's shares, because this little money is just a drop in the bucket.

As for Shi Bichi's joining, firstly, it was to stabilize her and prevent her from causing trouble. Secondly, she was indeed of some use, so she made this opening.

When Mrs. Bai heard this, she was a little disappointed. Her several dowry shops were operating very poorly, and their annual income was not much, so they could only barely survive.

But Chang Xi said she could use it in the future, and she immediately became happy again. Anyway, she was not someone who waited for the rice to be cooked, so it didn't matter if it was earlier or later.

After having a cheerful and frank talk with Mr. Bai, Chang Xi met with Xie Ming again, and of course Mr. Bai was also present.

Xie Ming behaved much more seriously this time, at least putting away his silly side. He was seen sitting upright, listening to Chang Xi talking about his salary and benefits.

, he frowned as soon as he heard that the salary was linked to performance. Isn't this the treatment of a big shopkeeper?

No, it's not as good as the big shopkeeper. At least the big shopkeeper will stipulate how much money he gets every year, and it has nothing to do with performance.

He wanted to protest, but it was too intimidating.

But Mr. Bai glanced at him, and he quickly put away the little Jiujiu in his heart. After this time, he was afraid of Ms. Bai. Will he survive next time?

Chang Xi looked at him with a cold face, "Master Xie Ba, we agreed at the beginning that I have the final say on how to use it for you, and how to use it. Do you still remember it?"

Xie Ming hurriedly nodded to show that he remembered, glanced at his wife Bai's face, and finally said, "Don't worry, Mrs. Chang, I am the best person to deal with."

Chang Xi then smiled and said, "Master Xie Ba, I can assure you that you will never regret your decision today. You will definitely get much more than you imagined in the future."

Xie Ming also smiled and said nice things like he believed it. In short, he couldn't afford to offend either of these two women.

"In that case, I will give you the first task. I want detailed information about the major tea merchants. The first is family background, the second is how to make a fortune, the third is business scope, the fourth is reputation, and the fifth is social relations.

..."

Jie Ming was trembling with fear after hearing this. How much effort it would take, but he didn't dare to give up his job, so he could only use the same hard work he had when he was in school and write down Chang Xi's instructions one by one.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and said that he would do well.

Chang Xi nodded to express her belief, and just as she was about to wave Xie Ming out, Xie Ming suddenly handed a piece of paper to her.
