Poor Family

"Just now grandma asked you if you need help from the mansion, why did you refuse?"

After coming out of Yixiang Hall, Shi Fuyin asked Shi Fuxin.

Shi Fuxin: "I didn't refuse."

Shi Fuyin knew her sister too well: "You didn't tell the truth, but you need manpower to open a shop, and the government can help you in this regard."

Shi Fuxin explained: "Sister, the rouge gouache shop I opened is intended to be a time-honored shop, and I don't want to have anything to do with the Bofu."

"Once I accept the help from the mansion, if the people in the mansion have any ideas in the future, how can I refuse it directly?"

Shi Fuyin expressed her understanding of this explanation, but she still said: "But what about the manpower needed to open a store? Preparation, procurement, sales, and store layout, all of which require employment."

Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "The capital is so big, as long as I have enough money, can I still not be able to recruit people? Sister, don't worry, I have been preparing to open a rouge and gouache shop for a long time, I have already thought about it gone."

Seeing that her sister knew everything in her heart, Shi Fuyin didn't say much, and the two sisters went back to Yiguiyuan together.

The next day, when Shi Fuxin arrived at the National Women's Prison, she didn't go to Class Nine of Huang Zi, but went directly to the business class.

Compared with the students in the yellow character class who were in groups and laughing and playing, the students in the business class were much quieter.

Because during the exam three days ago, she had a bad fight with Dongfang Yunni, Shi Fuxin thought that she might be excluded, but there was no way, the influence of the Dongfang family was still great.

But she never thought that as soon as she entered the classroom, someone would greet her.

The person is Dongfang Yunshang from the Dongfang family.

"Ms. Shi, good morning."

Seeing Dongfang Yunshang who stood up from her seat and greeted her with a smile, Shi Fuxin frowned and replied with a smile: "Good morning, Dongfang girl."

Dongfang Yunshang continued with a smile: "We are classmates from today, and I hope you can teach me more in the future."

The smile on Shi Fuxin's face deepened: "Miss Dongfang, you are too polite. I don't know much. I need you to take care of me in the future."

"We are all classmates, take care of each other."

A slightly playful voice sounded, and when Shi Fuxin turned her head, she saw the girl in red sitting next to Dongfang Yunshang.

When the girl in red saw Fu Xin looking at her, she held her chin and smiled and said, "Pingyang Hou Mansion, Liu Dailin."

Pingyang Hou Mansion, the natal family of the current favorite concubine Liu Guifei.

Shi Fuxin replied: "Uncle Wuchang's Mansion, Shi Fuxin."

Liu Dailin smiled and said: "I know you. When you and your brother applied for the National Women's Prison, the qinxiao ensemble was very nice. However, my favorite is the butterflies all over the sky. If you have a chance, you can perform it again."

Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "There will be a chance. In the future, Wuchang Bofu will hold a banquet. If Miss Liu is willing to honor it, I will definitely see it again."

Liu Dailin frowned: "Then I'll just wait."

"Don't forget me, I'm going too."

Wei Yinghua from Duke Cheng's Mansion also interjected with a smile, and after that, other people in the classroom also expressed that they could not be left behind.

Shi Fuxin looked at the crowd with a smile: "The post will definitely be delivered." She nodded towards the crowd and walked towards the empty seat.

"Shi Fuxin, there is a seat here, come and sit here."

Shi Fuxin looked at the girl in green who was waving at her with a bright smile and enthusiasm, and walked over with a smile.

"do you remember me?"

Seeing Shi Fuxin approaching, the smile on Du Zixuan's face became brighter and brighter.

Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "Of course I remember, the water flowers you cultivated really shocked me."

Du Zixuan: "Last time I didn't have time to tell you my name, my name is Du Zixuan." Then she pulled Hu Xinrui beside her, "This is Sister Hu."

Hu Xinrui leaned towards Shifu Xinfu: "Miss Shi, I am very happy to be a classmate with you."

Shi Fuxin replied: "Miss Hu, it's a pleasure to meet you too."

After getting acquainted with each other, Shi Fuxin sat behind Du Zixuan and Hu Xinrui. As soon as she sat down, she felt a gaze falling on her.

"Miss Shi, I'm Zhuo Yimian from Rongchang Bo's Mansion."

Zhuo Yimian introduced himself with a smile.

Rongchangbo mansion?

Shi Fuxin didn't look for information about Rongchang Bo's Mansion in her mind, she didn't show it on her face, she quickly replied with a smile: "Wuchang Bo's Mansion, Shi Fuxin."

Zhuo Yimian smiled and said: "I know you too, your piano skills are really good." However, what she admired the most was her boldness.

From entering the classroom to finding a place to sit down, she almost got to know all the students in the class, which was somewhat beyond Shi Fuxin's expectations.

Where there are many girls, there is a lot of right and wrong, but she is ready for a verbal battle, she never thought about it, and she has no chance to play it.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being a person who enrolls in a business class, and he does a good job of welcoming people with a smile on his face.

These people are the real smart people, the petty quarrel is meaningless, it's a waste of time.

Not long after, the instruction arrived.

The main reason why everyone enthusiastically applied for the business class was because of the free shop provided by the National Women's Prison. The teaching staff knew this very well. After distributing the books and explaining the canon, they started to talk about the shop.

"The National Women's Supervision Committee will provide you with a store for free for one year. After one year, if you want to continue using the store, you will have to pay money."

"Twenty shops, of different sizes, are all on Chang'an Avenue. To ensure fairness, you go up and draw lots, and the shop you draw will be the one."

As soon as the words fell, Wei Yinghua asked aloud: "Master, why is this rule different from last year, last year everyone was asked to choose shops according to their own situation."

Jiaoyu smiled lightly and said: "This year is the rule." Without further explanation, he put the bamboo sticks that had been prepared a long time ago on the desk, "You can come up and draw."

Wei Yinghua, Dongfang Yunshang, and Liu Dailin looked at each other, and at the same time got up and walked to the desk.

When they moved, the others followed suit.

After the lottery was drawn, Jiaoyu distributed the corresponding store addresses to everyone based on the lottery numbers in everyone's hands.

"After school, you can go to your own store and think about what you want to sell according to your own situation."

"Remember, time waits for no one. You only have a one-year free trial period. After one year, if the account profit does not meet the standard, the National Women's Supervision will also take back the store."

"Okay, now I will tell you the origin of the business class. You must know that the business class used to be very brilliant."

After school that day, Shi Fuxin took Shi Fuyin to Chang'an Avenue, and found her shop according to the address given by the instruction.

Looking at the luxurious shops with three doors and three floors in front of her, Shi Fuxin was full of surprise: "Did I get the best shop?"

Shi Fuyin was both happy and worried: "How much money will you have to pay if you want to continue using such a big shop next year?"

Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, it's just a little rent. Sis, let's go back quickly. I didn't expect the shop to be so big. I have to go back and modify the decoration drawings, or the assistants won't be able to arrange it."

As soon as the two sisters were about to get into the carriage, they saw Dongfang Yunshang and Dongfang Yunni coming out of the shop next door.

Dongfang Yunni did not enter the business class, and her face was very smelly. Although Dongfang Yunshang still followed her as usual, she was not as accommodating as before.

"It's really unlucky, the shop is next to Dongfang's. But fortunately, it is Dongfang Yunshang who can speak well, not Dongfang Yunni, who entered the business class."

Shi Fuyin noticed another shop, and pulled Shi Fuxin: "Not only Dongfang's, but also Wei's."

Shi Fuxin's shop is right between Dongfang Yunshang and Wei Yinghua.

"this location"

Shi Fuxin was a little hard to say, because the store was more luxurious than expected, and her happy mood disappeared in an instant.

After the two sisters got into the carriage, Shi Fuyin suddenly said: "It takes a lot of manpower to set up such a big shop, can you find someone to do it?"

Shi Fuxin nodded: "Gan Fanren knows a lot of craftsmen, I have already ordered him to gather a group of craftsmen, and when I correct the decorative drawings, I can start work."

Shi Fuyin asked again: "What are you going to sell? Are you ready? How many items do you need to display in such a big store?"

Shi Fuxin nodded again: "Don't worry about the goods, I started preparing them last year."

Shi Fuyin showed surprise: "Why don't I know?"

Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "You are busy studying, I don't want to disturb you."

Shi Fuyin was silent and didn't ask any more questions, but said: "You have prepared in advance, noble girls like Dongfang Yunshang have no shortage of servants at home, and there are people to take care of the shop, but, isn't the business class paying back some money?" Are they students from ordinary families, how do they manage the shop? No manpower, no money."

Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "Sister, you don't have to do business yourself, have you forgotten what Fifth Aunt told me a few days ago?"

"No one has hands, no money, and it is completely possible to cooperate with other people. Some people in the shops on Chang'an Street are willing to cooperate."

Shi Fuyin nodded: "That's not bad."

Shi Fuxin said, "But if you do this, you'll have to rely on others, and I'm afraid it won't work if you want to learn business experience."

Shi Fuyin: "This is also impossible."

Shi Fuxin: "I don't think everyone will do this, like Hu Xinrui and Du Zixuan, I think they should have prepared in advance."

Shi Fuyin didn't know these two people, so she didn't answer, and talked about other things: "Have you decided on the name of the shop?"

Shi Fuxin smiled and asked: "Sister, what do you think of Confidante's smile?"

"Beautiful smile"

Shi Fuyin chewed on these three words, and suddenly smiled: "Being beautiful really makes people happy."

Shi Fuxin smiled and said, "You think it's okay?"

Shi Fuyin nodded: "I think it will work."

Shi Fuxin clapped her hands together: "Okay, let's call Hongyanxiao."

Not long after the two sisters returned to the uncle's mansion, Mrs. Shi knew that Shi Fuxin had won a shop in a three-story building.

Mother An smiled and said: "Madam, such a big shop, I'm afraid it needs to be tidy and orderly. The sixth girl has no one in her hands, so don't you want to help?"

Mrs. Shi smiled and shook her head: "I already said that day, if you need help, you can ask me and the mansion, but now that she doesn't speak, I can't take the initiative anymore."

Nanny An laughed: "The old lady still cares about this with Miss Six?"

The old lady sighed quietly: "You don't understand, sometimes, the things that are rushed to the door are cheaper after all. If the girl wants to open a shop by herself, let her go."

Nanny An showed worry on her face: "Can Miss Six do it alone?"

Mrs. Shi smiled and said: "It's okay, just wait and see, maybe if you stumble, that girl may understand the meaning of family better."
