Chapter 138: Going to Zhuangzi to cause trouble
After leaving Jiang Yuwen's yard, Jiang Yutong asked, "But is Manager Wu back?"
Dongmei nodded, "I asked him to wait for you in the study."
Jiang Yutong came to the study. Manager Wu was standing quietly at the door. When he saw Jiang Yutong, he bowed to her.
Jiang Yutong entered the study and asked Dongmei to guard the door. "Manager Wu, have you found any information?"
Manager Wu nodded and said, "Miss, I did find something."
"This matter has to start with the manager of the slaughterhouse."
Jiang Yutong was a little surprised. "The manager of the slaughterhouse? How is this related to him? If I remember correctly, this manager's surname is also Zhao."
"Miss, you have a good memory. This steward's surname is indeed Zhao. He is the younger brother of the wealthy Zhao from Zhaojia Village."
Jiang Yutong gestured for Manager Wu to continue.
The Zhao family of Zhaojia Village initially made their fortune by doing business. The family was united, and each branch had people in various industries. When Manager Zhao saw that Roufufang took so much lard and pig pancreas from him every day, and that Roufufang's business was booming and the price of soap was even more expensive, he became interested.
Manager Zhao secretly investigated and found out that the Roufufang's farm was right next to Zhaojia Village, so he arranged for people to sneak in. Unexpectedly, Roufufang was very strict in recruiting workers. But as luck would have it, there was an employee at Roufufang who Manager Zhao knew.
After a while, I got to know a lot of information.
But some key things are still unknown.
Manager Zhao told his idea to Mr. Zhao, and also to show off in front of Mr. Zhao, he told him how big the profit of soap was.
Who doesn't love money? Mr. Zhao, the rich man, really had this idea in mind, so he arranged for housekeeper Zhao to handle this matter.
Seeing that Roufufang had no background, Butler Zhao became bolder. Unfortunately, the key to the soap was in the hands of Jiang Yutong, so he could never get the secret recipe.
Manager Wu said, "I believe this pig pancreas soap will be available soon."
Jiang Yutong tapped the table and fell into deep thought.
I didn't expect that someone would come to share a piece of the pie so soon. In fact, although the pig pancreas is cheap, it has a large sales volume and also brings in a considerable amount of income.
Jiang Yutong said to Manager Wu, "Go down and have a rest. You've worked hard during this period."
Manager Wu said goodbye.
Jiang Yutong stayed in the study for a while. It seemed that he still had to go to the farm tomorrow.
In the evening, Xiao Yifeng had a few women sent over, but he himself did not come.
Jiang Yutong thought to herself, it seems that this incident really scared Xiao Yifeng away.
Jiang Yutong looked the women up and down and said, "Everyone, please introduce yourselves."
The leading woman looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. "Master, Master Xiao has instructed us servants to obey you. Please give us a name."
Jiang Yutong didn't have the hobby of giving names to people. She knew that other families did like to give names to their maids according to their own preferences. "Just call her by her original name. We don't have so many rules here."
"Master, I only have a code name, not a name. Please give me a name."
Seeing this, Jiang Yutong also began to think of names, "In that case, your name is Qiuyue, your name is Xiazhu, and your name is Sangye."
There were three people in total, and Jiang Yutong cut the Gordian knot.
The three of them clasped their fists towards Jiang Yutong at the same time, "Thank you, Master, for the name."
Jiang Yutong looked at these people and saw that they all had the demeanor of heroes. "From now on, just call me Miss, no need to call me Master."
"Yes."
The three people said in unison.
Jiang Yutong asked Dongmei to arrange a room for them, "Dongmei, take them downstairs to rest first and familiarize themselves with the environment."
Then he said to the three people, "If you don't know, ask Dongmei and Chunyan first."
Dongmei quickly led the three of them downstairs. In the evening, Chunyan pulled Dongmei aside and said, "Sister Dongmei, do you think the young lady won't need us to serve her when the time comes?"
Dongmei looked at the nervous Chunyan and said helplessly, "Why do you have such an idea?"
Chunyan stammered, "I just think the young lady has someone more capable."
Dongmei smiled and said, "You, you just like to daydream. Just do your own thing and don't worry about other things. The girl has her own arrangements. Besides, the girl is getting busier and busier, so it's normal for her to have more people around her."
Chunyan was still worried. She had been blaming herself for not protecting the girl well after the incident at Cui's house. Although the girl did not blame her, she kept thinking about what happened that day and she should have stayed with the girl closely.
She always thought that if it were Dongmei, she would definitely do better than her.
Jiang Yutong didn't know what Chunyan was thinking, and he felt much better and slept well at night.
Early in the morning, Jiang Yutong was ready to go to the manor. Chunyan was waiting for her. She looked at Chunyan's obvious dark circles and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Chunyan shook her head and forced a smile, "It's okay."
Seeing that she was unwilling to say more, Jiang Yutong did not continue to ask. She said to Chunyan, "Then you can rest at home today. Let Dongmei bring Qiuyu and Xiazhu with me."
Chunyan was originally full of wild thoughts. Jiang Yutong usually took her with her at such times, so she immediately said, "Miss, I'm fine. I don't need to rest. I'll go with you."
Jiang Yutong was a little surprised to see Chunyan was obviously making a fuss, but she still insisted, "You stay at home and look after the house. Your brother also needs someone to look after him."
Chunyan knew she was being rude and quickly lowered her head. "Miss, I'm being too talkative. I'll listen to your arrangements."
Jiang Yutong took a few people to the farm.
I didn’t expect that I came to the right place today.
Before they even got close to the manor, a group of people gathered at the door, making a lot of noise. Jiang Yutong frowned and ordered the groom, "Hurry up."
The coachman cracked his whip and the carriage started to move faster.
The closer they got, the more they realized things were not simple. They heard Fang Hu shouting loudly, "Let's see who dares to break in. Do you think everyone in our village is dead?"
When everyone heard the sound of the carriage, they all looked towards it immediately.
Everyone in the village knew Jiang Yutong's carriage. "The boss is here, the boss is here."
When the people surrounding the village heard that it was the boss, they took a step back feeling guilty, and soon the crowd parted to form a path.
Fang Hu quickly stepped forward and said, "Boss, someone is causing trouble."
There were already a few servants in front of the carriage. They got off the carriage and stood beside the curtain. Qiuyue and Xiazhu, dressed in black, jumped off the carriage first. Jiang Yutong finally took Dongmei's hand and got off the carriage directly.
"Who dares to cause trouble on my farm?"
The leader is none other than Butler Zhao.
Butler Zhao didn't take Jiang Yutong seriously. He stroked his triangular beard and said with a smile, "Sorry, Shopkeeper Jiang, we meet again."
