Chapter 79: News

If you talk about the ability of the side, Song Wuliang may be humble, but he is very confident in looking at people. Perhaps it has something to do with his perennial pretending to be stupid, when he looks at people, he can always find some characteristics of that person's personality through some subtleties, such as eyes, movements, and a person's inadvertent demeanor.

said that he was testing the Miss Su family, but in fact, he just wanted to observe her reaction by talking to her, but fortunately, the final result did not disappoint him. That Miss Su didn't show disdain for him like ordinary people, on the contrary, her expression was as plain as water, and ordinary people couldn't see any emotions in those eyes at all. But he saw it clearly, and he saw it very clearly.

What flowed inadvertently in those delicate apricot eyes was hatred, a strong and cool hatred that penetrated the bone marrow.

"She is the one who secretly checked me. Song Wuliang took the handkerchief handed by A Feng and wiped the tears on his face, and his eyes returned to clarity.

Ah Feng obviously couldn't understand what his young master was saying, this could be regarded as a clear temptation? He only saw that the young master tugged on Miss Su's skirt and handed her a silk flower, and the time for this series of actions to occur was not even enough for a stick of incense!

"Go home. ”

Su Qi, who led Cuiluo away, visited several shops, mostly shops selling fabrics or ready-to-wear, and by talking with the shopkeeper in the store, Xiao Er and some buyers, Su Qi finally got a rough idea of what he wanted to know.

It's just that that's not enough.

After returning to the Su Mansion, Su Qi's mood has been a little low, not only because of the connection between Miss Lin and Song Wuji today, but also because she realized that if she wanted to do the thing in her heart well, it would be impossible for Miss Su Jia, who was young, had a narrow circle of contacts, and had a limited range of action.

"Write down all the information you have received today on paper, and the more detailed the better. After giving instructions to his two maids, Su Qi sat down at the wooden table, and began to write on rice paper with a pen.

spent most of the day going out to 'hang out', but it wasn't really to buy fabrics, after all, Su Qi's own family was the largest silk merchant in Jiangnan.

"Miss, you have spent so much effort today to get the slaves and maids to ask what kind of fabric sells best, and what kind of person buys more cloth, is it possible that you want to sell the material yourself?"

"Look at your character, it's like a phoenix claw, have you been lazy learning words lately?" Cui Luo joked with a smile, and also cast a curious look at Su Qi.

In fact, at the beginning, when Su Qi told them that they were going out of the house for a stroll, the two girls didn't believe it, and other people's young ladies might be interested in going out to hang out and play, but her young ladies had nothing to do with the entertainment except for occasionally accompanying the fourth lady in the house to fly kites and look at flowers in their spare time. Most of her time is in Xie Peige to study with Mr. Chu, or else she is reading books in her own courtyard, playing the piano, playing chess, practicing calligraphy and painting, and her life is so tight that the two maids who serve her often can't remember that this young lady is just an eight-year-old girl this year.

Su Qi raised his eyes and glanced at the words written by the red calyx, and the next moment he sighed, "Don't say it, our red calyx's words are a little better than the phoenix claw." As soon as he finished speaking, he covered his lips and chuckled.

"Miss, even you are making fun of the slave maid with Cuiluo. The red calyx snorted, and two red clouds quickly rose on its face.

"Okay, I'm not going to tease you, I'm really going to do business, but it's probably not quite what you think. ”

The two girls looked at Su Qi with wide eyes and a serious face, waiting for Su Qi's answer.

"My father made silk and bought silk, so I don't plan to buy and sell cloth brocade by myself, what I want to sell is news. Speaking of the thoughts in her heart, Su Qi's eyes faintly shone with a confident brilliance, adding a bit of unique temperament to her delicate appearance.

"Selling news?" Red Calyx couldn't react for a moment, she had never heard of anyone doing this kind of business.

Cuiluo's experience is slightly richer than that of the red calyx, she knows that some rich businessmen and magnates often spend money to buy news, but the news they buy is not ordinary news, is it possible that Miss Cheng wants to sell that kind of news?

Looking at Cuiluo's increasingly frightened expression, Su Qi understood that she was thinking left, "What I want to sell is still news from the business." It's just that this is easy to say, but it is extremely difficult to do, and it is not known whether it can be done. ”

"Is the news on the business field the one that Miss asked us to inquire about today?" Hongcao was already confused at this time, she had never heard of anyone selling news, and no matter how the news was discussed, whether anyone was willing to buy it became a big problem! Hongcao had always admired and trusted Su Qi very much, but this time she was skeptical of the idea proposed by Su Qi.

"Doing business, to put it in layman's terms, is that one party pays labor or brainpower, and the other party pays silver, and it is naturally impossible to make others willing to pay out the silver. What we're doing today is just scratching the surface. These days, Su Qi has read a lot of books on doing business, and recalled all the things he had seen in the countryside, the Su family, and the Song family in his previous life, so Su Qi had this idea today.

People who sell and buy things need to be in control of the news that is beneficial to them in a timely manner, but they do not necessarily have the time and energy to send someone to investigate, and even if they send someone to check the information they get, it may not be useful. If there is a place or organization that is responsible for investigating and selling information, it is beneficial for both buyers and sellers. What's more, Su Qi has several other purposes.

If you really do a good job in this business, it is still a small thing to earn money, and it can also bring a lot of benefits to yourself. For example, inquire about the location of the long-missing starling, or find the traces of Xiao Jiu who left without saying goodbye, and the whereabouts of Su Fangkite, who escaped from the farm. These are just one of the aspects, after reading some history books and military books, and also hearing a lot of real examples from Chu Ning, combined with all the things he has experienced, Su Qi knows how important it is to be able to obtain news in his favor in a timely and effective manner.

However, it was inconvenient for Su Qi to tell Cuiluo Hongcao one by one, she picked out a few of them and explained them to the two of them, and then opened her mouth and gave another order, "Cuiluo, after you finish writing something, you ask people to pack up some body-tonifying herbs and come out, and some fashionable snacks are also packed for me, I am going to visit someone." ”

"Yes. Cuiluo replied and began to write, today I ran for most of the day, and I got a lot of news, most of them are the people who usually buy fabrics, what are the best selling fabrics, and what are the different situations in which shops in different locations sell fabrics...... and so on related to the fabric business.

"Red Calyx, you really need to practice your words. Su Qi glanced at the red calyx angrily and funny, and looked away when he saw that the girl's face was embarrassed.
