Chapter 162: Obsession
Mei Zixuan finally got out of the circle of acquaintances, "What did you do just now?" ”
"I ran into two acquaintances. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Jiang Li's eyes stared at the brocade in the box in front of him, and he replied casually.
Mei Zixuan's eyes were suspicious, "It's the first time you came to Jiangnan, and if you don't know the place, it's a coincidence that you can meet acquaintances here." Who are they? ”
Jiang Li looked up at his cousin twice, deliberately ignoring his curious expression. Although he is a cousin, he doesn't need to explain it to him, right? Thinking like this, he lowered his head and continued to look at the brocade, without saying a word.
Mei Zixuan's breezy and moon-like face showed a hint of embarrassment, "Don't get me wrong, cousin, I'm just afraid that you will meet a bad person, so I just care." ”
"What misunderstanding? I didn't say anything. Jiang Li smiled faintly, understated, and picked up another brocade casually.
Mei Zixuan calmed down and wondered what was wrong with herself, is it really a mess if you care? was originally a good word of concern, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he seemed to lose some confidence.
Mei Zixuan is Mei Yuanshan's youngest son, and one of the older brothers has a family, and his father arranged for him to run a business in other places, sometimes only returning home once in two or three years. The two sisters were both born to their mother-in-law Pang Zi, one married a lifter, and the other married a merchant family, and they didn't go back to their parents' house very often.
Mei Zixuan ranked fourth, and her sister Mei Yingxue had to be pampered more by her parents, Mei Yingxue was young, and everyone who came to propose marriage was rejected by her father, saying that she wanted to keep her little daughter by her side more and mention it in a few years.
But Mei Zixuan's relatives, Mei Yuanshan and his wife, have been paying attention everywhere for a long time. Although the Mei family is a merchant family, their children are more outstanding than the other, and the youngest son is the pride of Mei Yuanshan and his wife. Mei Zixuan's appearance and personality are very similar to her father.
Handsome, rhinoplasty and plump lips, although he was born in a merchant family, he is not a person who chases fame and fortune in the camp, and is generous and righteous without informality. In the business of the left and right, socializing with people is also long-sleeved and good at dancing, although there are also businessmen's shrewdness, but there is no ordinary businessman's treacherous and slippery, although the family is extremely rich, but there is no trace of childishness.
Mei Yuanshan is a man who squandered money and fought for righteousness, and he also had an excellent reputation in Jiangnan. For a family like him, it is natural that there are many people who invite matchmakers to take the initiative to marry their children, and many people will inevitably mention Mei Zixuan's family affairs. But Mei Zixuan has his own provocative eye, and over the years, no girl has been looked at by him. Mei Yuanshan was open-minded, and he didn't urge, and allowed his son to choose his own wife.
It was because he was open-minded and allowed his son to choose his own wife that he said the words of letting his son get along with his niece for a while to see fate.
Mei Zixuan overheard the conversation of her parents, and later Mrs. Mei even looked for her son in private, and openly picked up the words, Mei Yingxue didn't know first, and Mrs. Mei gave a hint in private.
It was with this thought in mind that Mrs. Mei took Mei Zixuan and Jiang Li to Luoshui Park to see the brocade, and asked Mei Yingxue to pretend to be sick in advance.
Mei Zixuan was gentlemanly, and remembered that he was still a brother, and when he saw that Jiang Li was lukewarm to him, he treated him generously. followed behind Jiang Li and accompanied her to continue to watch the brocade.
Seeing that Jiang Li was very fascinated by the brocade, Mei Zixuan asked curiously: "In fact, there are many textile workshops in Jiangnan now, large and small workshops, small workshops have more than a dozen textile machines, and large workshops have hundreds of them. But there are few people who specialize in brocade, after all, the average rich person wears very little brocade, and the average person only wears cotton and linen brocade, to say that the cloud brocade in the brocade is even more expensive than the average rich person can not afford to wear, and now it is listed as a royal offering by the brocade temple, how do you think that you must open a brocade workshop? ”
Jiang Li was stunned, yes, why do you have to open a brocade workshop?
Was it that time when I heard Xiao Yu mention Yun Jin in front of his father's grave for the first time, I was moved? No, it's not. If you really want to investigate the reason, it is because of the failed entrepreneurial experience after graduating from university in the previous life.
How far away was that? Jiang Li looked at the five-colored brocade in front of him, his eyes were a little confused.
That year, she graduated from the University of Finance and Economics, and with the huge amount of more than 100,000 yuan saved by her father and stepmother behind her back, she partnered with several classmates to start a business. Several classmates, some study foreign trade, some learn fashion design. At that time, they went to Suzhou to invite the best brocade master and invited a large group of embroiderers to weave brocade. Several classmates worked hard, and the goal at that time was to pass on the ancient brocade skills and make money from the newly formed brocade company.
Later, due to the operation of funds and the failure of brocade weaving skills, the company did not make any money when it was built, and it was accompanied by a few classmates to raise funds. At that time, Jiang Li was the boss of that group of classmates, and he paid the most money, and he didn't dare to tell his father if he lost the money. Later, she worked everywhere to make money and wanted to return that money to her father for the elderly, but she was found to have leukemia, and what happened later was ・・・・・・
"Cousin, what's wrong with you?" Mei Zixuan saw Jiang Li looking at the brocade in his hand with tears in his eyes, and asked in a panic.
Jiang Li came back to his senses and squinted slightly, "It's okay, maybe the light is dazzling." Well, why did you just say that you remembered to open a workshop? ”
In the past life and this life, Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, she doesn't know which one is true. can only say in front of the present: "As you said, now the large and small textile workshops in Jiangnan are developing very well, and the brocade is not affordable for ordinary people in this dynasty." But now the rich people in Jiangnan advocate extravagance, and they are not subject to many official constraints, and the rich will wear it if they can afford it, so they don't care whether it is a royal offering or not. As you said before, my brocade can take your fleet to the sea and sell it to the sea. Besides, I don't lack silver in my hands, and now I only think about opening the brocade workshop, which is better if I can make money, and if I can't make money, I have to pass on this skill. ”
After laughing, I feel that I am too persistent, this is purely to redeem the last failure and find a sense of achievement?
But it's okay, as she said, she doesn't lack silver in her hands now. Her small treasury, if you add that priceless treasure, isn't it true that some people say that she is rich enough to rival the country, this life is not the previous life, no matter how much she tosses, she can afford to lose.
Jiang Li put down the brocade in his hand, and looked at Mei Zixuan with sparkling eyes, "In short, I have made up my mind to continue making the brocade." ”
"Obsession!" Mei Zixuan broke the essence in one sentence, "The Mei family has always been in business, and they have always recognized one thing and do not hit the south wall and do not look back. ”
"That's it. After all, we are somewhat related by blood, and we all have some similar temperaments! Jiang Li and his cousin looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere was much more harmonious. Others seem to be very intimate.
In the distance, Dumb and Xia Cheng stood in the garden on the other side of the lotus pond, and shouted: "What's the matter, I wonder I like to call her sister-in-law!" I have to tell the fifth brother to go quickly! After speaking, he didn't wait for Xia Cheng, and ran away in the crowd.
