Gu Jiusi listened to Gu Langhua's words, and in an instant, she finally felt a little bit of the past.

Gu Langhua's death is like the sudden collapse of Mount Tai, making Gu Jiusi feel that everything has changed. Now that he came back, even if they were arguing and arguing, but in his heart, he finally truly had his support again, making him feel that although the outside world had changed, what he had, his family, his love, was Nothing has changed.

He actually wanted to cry a little bit, but he felt ashamed, so he forced a smile and said hoarsely: "I see."

Gu Langhua patted him on the shoulder, looked up at Liu Yuru, and then said: "Go, be nice to your daughter-in-law, stop being such an adult, you are still like a child, let Yuru takes care of you."

Gu Jiusi responded, he stood up and walked out with Liu Yuru. When he got outside the door, he took Liu Yuru's hand and walked in the courtyard, Liu Yuru whispered to him as she was thinking follow-up matters.

"This time I went out to collect the food, and I was the host. You should always give me some remuneration. After I received the remuneration, I plan to hand over the business of Huarong to others. I think Buy some land outside Wangdu City. Have you taken in many refugees and distributed the land to them? I heard that you promised them that you would give them some basic expenses before they could grow food on the land? These How much money did you give? I plan to buy the land with these people, and then manage it in a unified manner, and hire someone who specializes in grain farming to plan the grain planting. With so many people and so many fields, there must be some rules. ."

Gu Jiusi listened to her ramble, and he was very happy in his heart like a little money fan. When Liu Yuru finished speaking, she looked back at him and saw the person next to her. As if the stars of the Milky Way were shining in her eyes, Liu Yuru was stunned for a while, and then said, "Did you listen to what I said?"

"Listen."

"What do you think?"

"It's up to you."

"Gu Jiusi," Liu Yuru couldn't help laughing, "I only praised your parents earlier, can you be more careful?"

"I understand," Gu Jiusi hurriedly said, "Actually, you just want to help me, it's not a problem for the government to give them money all the time, after all, it is only by letting everyone make money together to make money. Yes. You spend money to buy land with them, take them to grow grain, and hope that the harvest will be good in the coming year. These people have someone to rely on. It is small for you to make money yourself, but the big thing is to help me solve the problem. You think of these methods, It's all great, I understand."

Liu Yuru was stunned for a moment, she suddenly felt a panic and embarrassment as if her heart was being seen through, she coughed lightly, turned her head and said: "I will go to your mansion tomorrow, everything will be fine. Let's go with the procedure."

Liu Yuru and Gu Jiusi negotiated and went to find Su Wan alone and chatted with Su Wan.

Su Wan learned about the Liu family's situation, she was stunned for a long time and did not speak. Seeing Su Wan's expression, Liu Yuru was afraid that she would be sad, so she hurriedly said, "Mother, don't think too much, I'll send someone out to find..."

"It's okay." Su Wan sighed and waved her hand, "Most of my life has passed, and I don't want to think about it anymore when we leave from Yangzhou. In this troubled time, you don't want to. It's easy, don't bother looking for them. What are you going to do when you get them back?" Su Wan smiled bitterly, "We won't have to recognize them and be a family. Your father can't let go of Zhang Yue'er and her children. What is Baba doing with that anger?"

Liu Yuru didn't speak, Su Wan raised her eyes to look at her, she raised her hand to hold hers, and said softly, "I'm worried about you, after all, it's your father, you..."

"It's gone."

Liu Yuru sighed, she raised her eyes to look at Su Wan, and smiled bitterly: "It's all impossible, I was really sad at the beginning, but now it's better. Our mothers depend on each other for life, you are here , I'm at peace, don't think about it."

Liu Yuru comforted Su Wan and walked out of the door. She felt an invisible annoyance in her heart, but just as she came out, she saw a figure, with his back to her, leaning on the pillar, holding a book in his hand, and then watching the moonlight and the lights on the promenade. words above.

Hearing Liu Yuru open the door, he turned around and looked at Liu Yuru and smiled: "Finished?"

Speaking, he came over and put the cloak on Liu Yuru. Liu Yuru lowered her head and whispered, "Why are you here?"

"I don't think you came out with a coat," Gu Jiusi said with a smile, "I miss you again, just come and wait. What if you feel cold when you go out?"

"Just a mile."

"I want to wait for you too."

Liu Yuru was speechless, she just felt the warmth swept in from the cloak all the way to her heart. Gu Jiusi's hand wrapped hers, and when the two walked on the corridor, Liu Yuru suddenly felt that the road was not cold or lonely at all.

The two went back to the room together, Liu Yuru took a shower first, Gu Jiusi went into the clean room to clean, Liu Yuru listened to the sound of the water inside, looked at the figure on the screen, she wiped dry in front of the mirror Hair, after hesitating for a moment, she carefully took the lip gloss and smeared it on her lips.

After doing this, she seemed to regret it, and hurriedly wiped it off. After wiping, her lips were still dyed, with some abnormal ruddy, she looked in the mirror Inside himself, pursed his lips, took a sip, and got on the bed. Before going to bed, she went to the closet, found a silk white handkerchief, and put it on the bed. Then she turned off the light, lay down on the bed, and covered herself with the quilt.

She was a little nervous, she kept staring at the top of the mosquito net, looking back at the contents of the booklet Su Wan showed her before marriage, she felt her face burn, and she was a little unspeakable in the uneasiness She was thinking about Gu Jiusi, how he might treat her, and thinking about the future. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was a little too dissolute, and secretly despised herself. That's when she heard Gu Jiusi get up from the water. .

Gu Jiusi put on a single shirt, wiped her hair and came out of the clean room, only to realize that Liu Yuru had turned off the lights. He was stunned for a while, not expecting Liu Yuru to go to bed so early. He could only walk carefully in the bedroom, for fear of waking Liu Yuru.

Liu Yuru lay stiffly on the bed, her heart beating fast. She wondered when Gu Jiusi went to bed, and when she came to bed, would she laugh at her.

She felt Gu Jiusi approaching, her whole body was tense, she was so nervous, who would have thought that Gu Jiusi groped halfway, and suddenly sat down!

Liu Yuru opened her eyes on the bed and saw Gu Jiusi sitting there wiping her hair in the dark.

Okay, he plans to go to bed after his hair is dry.

So Liu Yuru opened her eyes and stared at Gu Jiusi, waiting for him to go to bed.

She watched Gu Jiusi sitting there wiping his hair, wiping him and then pausing, as if he was thinking, rubbing for a while and then pausing, and it seemed that something sounded.

Liu Yuru's heart was a little anxious at first, but when she looked at it, she was sleepy, and after a while, she fell into a drowsy sleep.

When Gu Jiusi went to bed, she was already in a daze. Gu Jiusi was afraid that she would get cold and her hair was completely dry. After getting up, he felt that there was something more on the bed. He didn't think much about it.

He pondered, Liu Yuru must be very sleepy, and fell asleep without noticing that there was something on the bed.

He felt distressed again, bowed his head and kissed Liu Yuru's forehead, contentedly hugged and fell asleep.

Woke up until the next day, Liu Yuru woke up first, she opened her eyes suddenly, sat down from the bed, and reached out to touch the white cloth she was padding.

Then she was attracted by the white silk on the ground, Gu Jiusi opened his eyes in a daze, and said vaguely, "It's so early, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

"I...I went to check."

Liu Yuru was a little embarrassed. She lost her courage last night. She quickly got up, stepped over Gu Jiusi, and wanted to pick up the white silk on the ground and hide it. However, just as she bent down to pick up something, the white silk was picked up one step ahead of time. Gu Jiusi grabbed the white silk and raised her eyebrows to look at Liu Yuru: "What is this?"

Liu Yuru blushed instantly and whispered, "I...how do I know?"

"Then what are you trying to hide it for?"

"I don't." Liu Yuru hurriedly denied it, turned around and said, "I'm going to wash..."

Before Liu Yuru finished speaking, Gu Jiusi suddenly remembered the thing he had taken away in the night, he seemed to suddenly understand what it was, he grabbed Liu Yuru and hurriedly said: "Oh Oh don't go away!"

Liu Yuru turned her back to him, quite nervous, Gu Jiusi hugged her from behind and whispered in her ear: "Yuru, did you want to have a baby with me last night?"

"Gu Jiusi!" Liu Yuru felt that she had never blushed so much in her life, she clearly felt the scorching temperature on her face, and she said angrily, "I'm going to do business! I'm going to make money Don't stop me!"

Gu Jiusi heard her say this, but he hugged her tightly, and he didn't let go because she was struggling and pushing. Instead, he laughed loudly, bowed his head and kissed her, and said happily: "Don't worry, I'm ready."

"Fuck away!"

Liu Yuru was even more embarrassed when she heard him say she was in a hurry. Gu Jiusi felt that she was struggling desperately, and knew that she couldn't bully her any more. Finally, he kissed her again, and hurriedly said, "Wear more beautifully tomorrow, oh!"

Liu Yuru stomped on his foot, Gu Jiusi finally let go, Liu Yuru hurried out, Gu Jiusi stomped on one foot, saw Liu Yuru stick out half of her face from the door, looking at him , with worry in his eyes, he said cautiously, "You...Are you all right?"

Gu Jiusi hurriedly fell to the ground and said with a sad face: "The leg is broken."

So Liu Yuru knew that he was all right, so she felt relieved, turned around and walked out, went to the next door to call someone, and after washing, she went out to work. She went to Huarong first. Yunyun had already returned to Wangdu before her and started to clear Huarong's accounts. As soon as Liu Yuru came over, she called people together.

Liu Yuru first learned about Huarong's recent situation, and then talked about her agreement with the merchants along the road, only she said: "I was in Cangzhou before..." Yunyun suddenly spoke up Interrupting her, she said softly, "I have already given all the gifts Madam prepared in Cangzhou to everyone."

Liu Yuru paused for a while, then realized that Yunyun did not intend to let her speak, so she changed the subject with a smile: "That's good," she said softly, "I have always been outside. I miss everyone, and it is a blessing to be back safely now, we will reserve a table at Donglai Restaurant tomorrow night, let's have a meal together."

The topic was hurriedly passed, and when everyone dispersed, Liu Yuru left Yunyun alone, she took a sip of tea and looked up at Xiang Yunyun: "Why did you not let me speak? ?"

Yunyun whispered: "Madam, after I came back, I got those fakes that were circulating from some channels."

Speaking, Yunyun took out a box of rouge, Liu Yuru took the rouge from the side, and then listened to her: "But I found out that this is not a fake."

Liu Yuru's hand paused, she raised her eyes to look at Yunyun, Yunyun said in a low voice: "The formula of this rouge is no different from our genuine product."

Liu Yuru understands what Yunyun means, the formula of rouge is extremely difficult to imitate, one more point is one point less, and there is a difference in color and feel. After being silent for a while, Liu Yuru finally said, "Do you think it was our own people doing things outside?"

"Yes."

Yunyun said decisively: "I'm still investigating the details, but it has basically been locked on a few workers who make rouge."

Liu Yuru was holding the tea, she heard Yunyun's words, she couldn't help laughing: "I understand what you mean, each step of our rouge is separate, one person only controls the proportion of one part, Only the two people who made rouge at the beginning knew about half of the recipe. Those two people are the elders of the Gu family, it is inconvenient for you to say, is it?"

Yunyun didn't speak, Liu Yuru put down the teacup and said indifferently: "The most important thing in this matter is not love, but these two people are the core people of our rouge, rouge is made by them, You removed them, what will we do in the future?"

"But not always."

Yunyun pushed up the account in a low voice, and said in a low voice: "These days, our store's business has declined sharply, and this kind of stuff is flooding outside, our prices can't go up, and our reputation is also protected. don't stop."

Things are rare and precious. They have always taken rouge as a face.

Liu Yuru listened to Yunyun's words, and kept silent. She thought about it and said slowly: "You go down first, I'll think about it."

Yunyun answered, but without saying much, she went down.

Liu Yuru rested for a while, then went to the government office to find the master book. When she traveled in a caravan, she signed an agreement with the government to pay her 10% of the profits. Now, the total amount of food and silver earned by her business has almost doubled. She asked for money according to the contract. The master checked the documents with her, and went to Gu Jiusi with the contract.

Gu Jiusi heard that it was Liu Yuru's contract, but he didn't shy away from it. After he read the content carefully, he noticed her words.

Her word is a little awkward, not the same as before, it seems that she is trying to erase her previous font and change the way of writing.

Gu Jiusi understood what she meant, he couldn't help laughing, bowed his head and signed his name, checked the time, and handed it over to the master book: "You ask Boss Liu to wait, I I have something to say to her."

The master was stunned for a while, but he still answered. After relaying Gu Jiusi's words, he led Liu Yuru to the hall. Gu Jiusi hurriedly approved a few documents, and when it was time to rest, hurry up When he got up, he took off his official uniform and changed his clothes to go to Liu Yuru.

Liu Yuru watched Gu Jiusi walk in wearing a suit, and couldn't help but say, "Aren't you still working?"

"Let's go," Gu Jiusi said happily, "the time is up and things are over, I'll go home with you."

Liu Yuru was a little helpless, only then did she realize that Gu Jiusi wanted to go home with her.

"Not at all." Liu Yuru sighed and recounted what happened in the store, she said with a bit of a headache: "These two people, I don't drive, and I don't drive. If you drive people away, who will handle the rouge thing in the future. If you keep it, each one will be effective, and there is no rule, how can I manage it?"

Gu Jiusi listened quietly, he tapped the fan, but did not speak. Liu Yuru's face was full of troubles, Gu Jiusi chuckled lightly: "Don't worry, I think it's fine too."

"How is it good?" Liu Yuru raised her eyes, a little dazed, Gu Jiusi smiled and said, "You, you are too smart, you can walk so smoothly at a young age, how can you do it without a few falls? ? You are always counting profits, thinking about how to make money, patronizing the outside world, and have you ever thought about the truth that a thousand-mile embankment is destroyed by an ant's nest? It's a good thing, too."

Liu Yuru listened to Gu Jiusi's words, listened to his analysis and said: "When you do things, you always use people without doubt. It's the same, but it's one thing to ask for yourself, but it's another thing to see others. When it comes to money, you have to understand that the other party is a person. You open a store, hire two guys, you can You have to be on guard, the most important things cannot be placed with the buddies. If they are placed with the buddies, either there is a way to control them, a group of people check and balance each other, or the key people must be firmly tied to death. Now these two rouge People are the most important people in the rouge shop like you, and as a result, you neither tied them to death with your interests, nor did you control them. Isn't it inevitable that you treat key people as ordinary people and come to this day?"

Liu Yuru nodded and replied, "You are right."

Speaking, she sighed and looked up at Gu Jiusi, with a hint of help in her eyes: "Then what do you think I should do now?"

Gu Jiusi listened to her asking him for help, and when he looked at Shui Yingying, his whole heart was rippling, and he could not wait to give her a dozen or twenty wonderful methods for her to use every day Looking at him like that.

But he still endured it and said with a smile: "This method is what you think about, it's not a difficult thing, your business will grow bigger and bigger in the future, and some want you to think about it When it comes to things, you should use this first to practice your hands. Just think about it, everyone is human and has selfish desires. Why did this happen? What are your most critical requirements now, and how can you satisfy your desires? of?"

Liu Yuru listened to his question and knew that Gu Jiusi was guiding her. She fell silent. Gu Jiusi saw her serious appearance and thought that this person was really beautiful.

Liu Yuru never slept at night, she sat in the study, counting the accounts repeatedly. Gu Jiusi didn't dare to disturb her, so he took the book, sat in the room and read it while waiting for her.

He saw Liu Yuru staring blankly at the candlelight, and in the middle of the night, he finally couldn't stand it anymore, got up and squatted beside Liu Yuru, smiled and said: "I said this lady, if you don't sleep again , don't blame me for being rude."

Liu Yuru laughed softly, she felt distressed that Gu Jiusi couldn't sleep, so she got up and went back to bed with him.

Gu Jiusi knew that she couldn't sleep well if she couldn't think of it, and sighed: "You're amazing, I'll ask you, now do you think Hua Rong wants to keep them? "

"Naturally, it is necessary," Liu Yuru sighed softly, "I can't find someone to replace them now."

After all, it is someone who has been supported by the Gu family for more than ten years. Where can a replacement person be so easy to find?

Gu Jiusi continued, "Do you want to keep them all, or just keep one?"

Liu Yuru paused for a while, then responded, "One will do."

"Isn't that enough?"

Gu Jiusi sighed: "If you only plan to keep one, put a bait, let them keep one for you, and the other to make rules, you block the road behind them, promise to keep You can't be messed up if you go down, and you can't stumble if you go out. How to do it depends on the temperament of those two people, you go to sleep first, and then think about it tomorrow. "

Liu Yuru answered in a low voice after hearing Gu Jiusi's words.

However, with Gu Jiusi's words echoing in her head, she slowly came up with a plan.

On the second day, she entered Huarong, Tong Yunyun inquired about the specific situation, and called the more senior of the two.

That person's name is Wang Mei, everyone calls her Aunt Mei, and the other person who makes rouge is Song Xiang, who was originally Wang Mei's apprentice and always listens to Wang Mei's words. Yunyun said that the main thing about selling flowers and formulas outside is that Wang Mei took Song Xiang to do it, Wang Mei found a way, and Song Xiang was in charge of developing the formula. Song Xiang was born with a keen sense of smell and vision, and Hua Rong had some recipes that Song Xiang had guessed.

However, all of this is mainly guessed by Yunyun based on the temperament of the two, but Liu Yuru is estimated to be inseparable. She invited Wang Mei over and said, drinking tea, "I told Aunt Mei about this. I planned to discuss it with Aunt Mei before I left, but I left in a hurry. It's a bit late to talk about it now."

Wang Mei sat on the side, looking a little uneasy: "What is the owner going to say to me?"

"You and Sister Xiang defected to me when I had nothing, and it can be regarded as Huarong created with me. You and Sister Xiang have contributed greatly to Huarong's existence today, but I didn't give you the answer. Some treatment is mine, not mine."

Hearing Liu Yuru's words, Wang Mei hurriedly said: "The owner is joking, the old owner brought us from Yangzhou and set up a life for us, we are too grateful, how much the owner gives, we should of."

I negotiated with the merchants from all over the world along the way, and ensured that they will supply goods from Huarong all the way in the future, and also made good dealings with the officials in Cangzhou, Qingzhou, and Yangzhou. All of them will be arrested, and we will not have to worry about business issues in the future, but will spend more time developing these things. I think it's not a good thing to be so messy, I think, we have to be more disciplined, just like the army , there must be an arrangement, someone is in charge of a bunch of people who do these research and development, this person will be our key person in the future, and the treatment will naturally be higher."

Wang Mei's face changed and changed as she listened to Liu Yuru's words. At the end of her hearing, her eyes brightened a little, she seemed to understand what Liu Yuru meant, and said cautiously, "What do you mean?"

"So," Liu Yuru said with a smile, "What do you think, Sister Xiang?"

Wang Mei's face changed dramatically, Liu Yuru took a sip of tea and said softly: "I heard that Sister Xiang is very sensitive to color and taste, no matter what recipe, she can smell it. I know. She is your apprentice, I think, give her a higher level, give her an extra 12 taels of silver every month, and give her an extra 10% of the dividends in the shop. You should be happy for her, right?"

Wang Mei did not speak, her face was not very good-looking. Liu Yuru pretended not to see her face, looked outside with a smile and said, "In the future, when the world settles down, with the credit I have made for Mr. Fan now, Huarong will become a royal merchant in the future, and we will never be able to do it again. I'm worried, Sister Xiang is not only a rouge master, maybe she can get a rank, Aunt Mei, you are her master, and then you can tell others that this is your apprentice."

Speaking, Liu Yuru looked at Wang Mei and seemed to ask, "Aunt Mei thinks my idea is appropriate?"
