"Everyone in this world is different. Some people are born good, some do evil because of evil, some are selfish, some work for the country and the people, some live openly and fearlessly, and some live cautiously.

Be cautious, some people can't help themselves, some people are thoughtful, and some people just want to be happy... In short, there are tens of millions of people in the world, and they may have thousands of thoughts about the same thing. We don't know why others would.

They think and do this, but they definitely have their own ideas. This idea may be right or wrong, and people tend to stick to their own ideas first. When political opinions are different, it is like two forces competing.

Who loses and wins in the end depends on methods and strategies." Lin Shuran preached to the children of the Xu family seriously, word by word.

Xu Mingchen and the others still half understood what they heard, but they all kept what Lin Shuran said firmly in their hearts.

At this point in the family meeting, Lin Shuran announced that it was suspended. After all, it was the first time to discuss court affairs with the children. He just wanted to make them think more about the problem. It would be too early for them to discuss it in depth. There will be many opportunities in the future.

, she also wanted to use this discussion to make them understand Xu Junze's approach of handing over the property.

Although the family meeting was over, the shock left to the children of the Xu family was still great. After returning, they worked harder to study and practice martial arts.

However, the Xu family began to encounter more problems. The first was that something happened to the Xu family's three shops in the capital.

Although Xu Junze was a general with a lot of salary and a lot of rewards from the emperor, he only cared about official matters. In addition to the daily expenses for the children of the Xu family and some expenses in the mansion, he took all the excess money.

I don't know what to do when I go out. It's not like other mansions where I buy properties and open a prosperous shop. Now, not counting her dowry shop, the Xu family only has three shops in the capital.

One is a drug store that only sells medicine, one is a liquor store that only sells wine, and the other is actually a grocery store. The business is really not that good, and the monthly turnover money is even pitiful.

But even so, because of this new decree, the Xu family's three shops can't even make a penny.

In the end, the shopkeepers of the three shops came to the house anxiously to see Lin Shuran, the head matron, and said that their abilities were limited and they could no longer continue to be shopkeepers.

"You three are not willing to work in the Xu family anymore?" Lin Shuran met the three shopkeepers in the hall. They always lowered their heads and did not dare to look at her. They seemed very uneasy and nervous. Are they so terrible?

So, she smiled gratefully and said: "I'm afraid not many people are willing to enter the Xu family's door at this time. If the people Hong Gu said are willing to come, it will really help me a lot."

"The little one is incompetent, I beg you, madam, to choose someone more capable!" The three shopkeepers simply knelt down to Lin Shuran with a "plop" and kowtowed to her.

But Lin Shuran looked at her back as she left and pondered what she said. She always felt that Hong Gu's words had a different meaning. Could it be that she had some connection with the Xu family?

Two days later, Hong Gu brought three people in, two men and one woman. They all seemed to be ordinary, well-behaved people, but their eyes and temperaments looked calm and sharp, and they had the same characteristics as Hong Gu.

Similar things don't look like they came from a small family.

"Mommy, don't worry, let's close the shop for a while. It's a national mourning now, so it's normal for business to be bad!" Lin Shuran knew that even if a new shopkeeper was found, the business would not be able to continue. The Xu family is a new rich man in the capital.

The foundation is basically shallow. Those people are not easy to deal with the emperor and the Zhenguo government, so they will naturally attack the Xu family.

"If Madam believes in being a slave, I can find some people to temporarily serve as storekeepers!" After Aunt Zhang left, Aunt Hong suggested when she saw Lin Shuran's frown.

"If it's gone, we'll look for it again. As long as we're willing to pay the wages, why can't we find the shopkeeper? If it doesn't work, just ask one of our own servants to go to the shop!" Lin Shuran didn't think it was a big deal. Originally, the three shops were not big.

, the money earned in one month is not as much as the Pyrotechnic Chef’s income in three days, but after all, it is the Xu family’s property and must be kept.

Lin Shuran called the housekeeper Xu An over and asked him to pay each shopkeeper's wages, and paid them two months more wages. He thanked them for their dedication to Xu's shop for so many years, and then asked Xu An to send them out in person.

The door of the mansion.

These three shopkeepers were not slaves of the Xu family. They were free to come and go in the Xu family. Lin Shuran did not blame them too much. Even if they did not tell the truth, she could probably guess the reason behind it. There must be someone.

Putting pressure on them in the dark.

"Miss, this shop has no shopkeeper, what should we do in the future?" After the three shopkeepers left, Granny Zhang became very worried. Now the governments outside are very angry with the Xu family. The Xu family has lost their land and the shop cannot be built.

Business, how will the whole family live after this? Do we really need to supplement the young lady’s dowry? The Xu family has thirteen sons, and Grandma Zhang will faint just thinking about it.

Lin Shuran raised her head and looked at Hong Gu in surprise. She didn't expect that she would suddenly say this. She was a little hesitant in her heart. In fact, it didn't matter whether there was a shopkeeper in the shop for the time being. But she then thought about the fifth uncle who had left, maybe with Hong Gu and...

If she keeps in contact with people she knows for a longer time, she will be able to get news about Uncle Wu.

"Miss, it's not like you don't know that there are only a few servants in the general's mansion. If you go to the shop again, there will be no one available in the mansion!" Although Aunt Zhang helps Lin Shuran manage the inner house, she and the general

Xu Junze has a quiet temperament, so there are not many servants in the mansion, so he has just hired attendants for the young masters of the Xu family, but they are all children about the same age as them, and they can't do much in the mansion.

"Madam, don't worry, these people are my friends. Just like me, they will definitely do their best for the Xu family!" Hong Gu said and bowed before retreating.

Hong Gu introduced the three people to Lin Shuran as Jin Liu, Jing Niang and Uncle Mo. Among them, Jin Liu was the youngest, just over twenty years old. He had been a medical apprentice for several years and was also Hong Gu's apprentice. From now on, he would hand over the medicine shop to

He can.

Jingniang is younger than Honggu. She lost her husband in her early years and has no children. She also helped sell wine at her husband's house, so the wine shop can be left to her to take care of.

Uncle Mo is an idle person. He used to travel around selling groceries. He is just the right person to be the shopkeeper of the grocery store in the mansion.

Lin Shuran also didn't expect that the three people Hong Gu found for her were so suitable. Even if she went to look for such a shopkeeper, she might not be able to find such a suitable person. She was really dozing off and someone gave her a pillow. What a coincidence!
