Chapter Fifty-Six: Talking Business

According to Master Tang's wishes, Tang Han stayed with Xiao Chuheng all day long in the past few days, anyway, Tang Guoan's original intention was to let his son get acquainted with the son of the Xiao family, if he really made friends and not to mention that he could learn a lot from these people, it would be a long-term deal.

It's only logical that it doesn't work.

Preserved fruit, the Tang family is also doing preserved fruit business, although Tang Guoan is greedy for Xiao Chu's one or two decades of trading, but people didn't speak, he bluntly said that he wanted to cooperate, so that it seemed a little deliberate, and inviting them to live in the house was not just to thank him for helping him that day, but purely for business.

That day, I invited them to live in the house by thanks, but now it is not funny to talk about business intentions, so in the past few days, in addition to telling my son to accompany Xiao Sangongzi to the market to see if there are fresh and interesting preserved fruit snacks. The more important thing is, of course, to ask Tang Han to reveal in front of Xiao Chuheng intentionally or unintentionally that his family is a local commercial trial, and the preserved fruits in his family are also among the best in Qingzhen.

Business is such a thing, and it is a long-term solution to cooperate with everyone with strength, so Tang Guoan takes the long-term business of the past 20 years very seriously.

Recently, because Tang Han refused to marry the Liu family and vowed to marry Mei Niang, who sold tofu brains in the market, Tang Guoan looked at him very closely as a useless rebel, and he was not allowed to step at the courtyard gate. Now for this business, he is allowed to go out of the house every day, but he can't help but worry a little in his heart, worried that Tang Han will sneak to see Mei Niang when he accompanies Xiao Chuheng out of the house.

Because he was always a little worried in his heart, he ordered the housekeeper to send his family to follow secretly, who would have thought that things were not as worried as he was. Tang Han, who was originally worried about not marrying Mei Niang in this life, has never left him for a private meeting with Mei Niang since he met Xiao Chuheng.

The housekeeper's words, Tang Guo'an was at ease in his heart, but for some reason, he also felt a little strange. He made such a big fuss before, he didn't know how many times he was punished, and he couldn't get this kid to give up this wrong mind, what's wrong now? But he opened his mind, not thinking about that Mei Niang, but accompanying Xiao Chuheng to the market every day to take a look, but he was also dedicated.

Feeling strange in his heart, Tang Guoan couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure that the young master has never left Xiao Sangongzi's side?" ”

"What the master ordered, of course the little ones did it carefully, the little ones have secretly sent people to follow these days, and the young master really followed the third young master Xiao and never left a single step."

"Didn't you go to the Mei Niang who sold tofu brains?"

"Master, really no, the family members who have been ordered these days have followed closely, as long as the young master leaves the Tang Mansion, he will follow all the way. The young master and the third young master Xiao met late, the two chatted well, yesterday passed by the stall that sold tofu brains, the young master was stunned and didn't pay attention Mei Niang was on the side, and walked straight over without looking at it. In my opinion, our young master just wanted to open it, and understood the master's hard work, but he didn't think about that Mei Niang, and concentrated on accompanying Xiao Sangongzi, wanting to help the master win this big deal. ”

The master's thoughts, how could the housekeeper who has been an errand in this house for many years not know, and when he laughed, he didn't forget to pick up what the master wanted to hear. At that moment, Tang Guoan nodded and said, "If that kid is really as you say, I will rest assured." ”

"Master, you can live in peace, the young master is also a reasonable person, so he naturally knows that the master is hardworking. That Mei Niang, I think the young master really let go, this time I heard the maids in the courtyard say that I didn't hear the young master talk about Mei Niang, but I heard Yuyuan find Xiao San Young Master every once in a while, chanting poems, paintings, playing chess and chatting, very comfortable. ”

"This time." Hearing this, he couldn't help frowning, Tang Guoan said: "Are you saying that the young master has not only accompanied Xiao Sangongzi out these days, but also often looked for Xiao Sangongzi in the mansion on weekdays. ”

"Exactly." Busy nodding in response, the housekeeper smiled: "The son is motivated, and he often listens to Yuyuan for advice." But then again, this Xiao Sangongzi is really a fairy-like character, not only is he romantic, but he is also very good at chess, piano, calligraphy and painting. I have to say that the son of this wealthy family in Kyoto is different from ours, and he is really a strange person. ”

For Xiao Chuheng, Rao is housekeeper is also praised, he has also worked in the Tang Mansion for twenty or thirty years, and there are many people who think he has seen. But in the past few days, after looking at the son from Kyoto, I know what can be called a son. Not to mention appearance and talent, when it is the courtesy of treating people, it cannot be compared with the arrogant sons of their small town.

Xiao Chuheng looks very good, especially those peach blossom eyes, which can hook people's souls, but after living in the Tang Mansion for a few days, all the maids in this mansion are all moved by him. It is really a thousand flowers swimming with it, and it is not allowed to touch its body for a moment, so it is a sentimental flow.

The housekeeper has been by his side for decades, although he can't see much of the world, but he is not an ordinary family, he can make him praise so much, I think the son of the Xiao family is really not a layman. But somehow, when he heard that Tang Han went to Yuyuan from time to time just to find Xiao Sangongzi, he always felt a little strange in his heart, but for a while, he couldn't say what was strange, so he could only frown.

Just when Tang Guoan frowned and thought about this sudden overflowing suspicion, the family outside came to report.

"Master, Miss Xiao and Master Han ask to meet."

"Miss Xiao is here?" As soon as he heard that Xiao Chu was coming, Tang Guoan immediately straightened his spirits, and the strange suspicion in his heart, which could not be said to be the root cause, immediately asked him to throw it away, and Tang Guoan said busily.

"Hurry up and invite Miss Xiao and Han Gongzi in."

In response, he retreated, and within a few moments, he saw Xiao Chusu and Hanwha entering the house before and after. After entering the house and bowing, Xiao Chu smiled and said, "I came to disturb me without giving a lecture in advance, and I hope that Master Tang will not be strange." ”

"Miss Xiao is serious, Miss Xiao in the market that day for me to retrieve the important things stolen by the thieves, for me Miss Xiao is my benevolent person, if there is something Miss Xiao came directly, how can I talk about it."

"Master Tang is worthy of the squire of Qingzhen, and his heart is full of admiration."

"Miss Xiao is too polite, by the way, Miss Xiao, Master Han, please take a seat." Seeing that the two were still standing there, Tang Guoan hurriedly invited the two to sit down, and when the two sat down, Tang Guoan looked directly at the housekeeper on the side and said in a suppressed voice: "Still standing, don't hurry up and show Miss Xiao and Han Gongzi tea." ”

After the words were spoken, the housekeeper hurriedly understood, and the people were also in a hurry to retreat, and after the people withdrew, Tang Guoan looked at them and said, "By the way, I don't know if Miss Xiao came to look for me, is there something wrong?" ”

"I came to look for Master Tang at this time, there is really an important matter, I want to ask Master Tang."

"Oh? I don't know what? ”

"We went south this time for a deal that can be talked about for a long time, and I think that Master Tang is already clear, since Master Tang is clear in his heart, then Chu Su will not say secret words. Chu Su home in Kyoto, there are many tea houses in Kyoto, and the business is also very good, and there are often many regular customers who go to the tea house to eat tea. Eating tea is not only as simple as drinking tea, but also preserved fruit pastries. Although the teahouse at home has business dealings with several preserved fruit merchants all year round, the most taboo thing for this trader is that it remains the same. If you always keep that old trick, you won't be able to go through business for long, so Chu Su thought ......"

At this point, he undoubtedly glanced at the preserved fruits on the table, and Xiao Chu continued: "So Chu Chu thought that if he could put more thought into the preserved fruits and change them to tricks that Kyoto couldn't see, this business might become more and more prosperous." ”

After speaking, he looked at Tang Guoan, and after laughing, Tang Guoan said: "Miss Xiao's heart is like seven tricks, and this sentence is even more direct to the bone, this businessman really refuses to stick too stubbornly, otherwise there will be no freshness, and the business will not be as prosperous as before." ”

"That's the reason, so when I heard that Qingzhen preserved fruit is famous all over the world, Chu Su took his brother to the south, wanting to see if he could find a family in Qingzhen and make a long-term deal."

"Miss Xiao's intention is also feasible, but I don't know if Miss Xiao can find a suitable long-term business?" This is a casual question, but in fact it is also cautious, but it is a bit of inquiry. I was obviously intentional in my heart, but I couldn't bear it. This squire was also a little treacherous, and after hearing the hidden meaning of Tang Guoan's words, Xiao Chu was stunned and did not break it, but responded.

"In the past few days, thanks to the help of Tang Gongzi, I led the third brother to take a turn in Qingzhen, and Chu Su also has a score in his heart all over Qingzhen. It's just that I want to say that I have the ability to talk to my Xiao family about this long-term deal, it's not that Chu Su laughs and boasts, I'm afraid that there are not a few families in the entire Qingzhen who can afford this amount, so Chu Su turned his mind to Liu Yuanwai, a wealthy businessman in Qingzhen, from the beginning. ”

After a slight smile, his eyes turned slightly, and he said: "Liu Yuanwai said that the preserved fruit business can be regarded as the top in Qingzhen, so this business, Chu Su was thinking about the Liu family at the beginning, and it should be feasible. It's just that Chu Su is not from Qingzhen after all, and he is not very familiar with this Liu Yuanwai, so I came here today to ask Master Tang what kind of person this Liu Yuanwai is. ”

If you want to talk about business with others, you should first find out what kind of person the other party is before you can live in peace, and Xiao Chushu is certainly right about this. And Tang Guoan is a squire here, and he is doing the same business as the Liu family, so he can ask him a lot of things.

Xiao Chusu came to find himself today, it must be for the business in his mouth, Tang Guo'an was clear in his heart, but he didn't expect Xiao Chusu to ask so straightforwardly, and directly asked the staff of the Liu Mansion to be such a person, but Tang Guoan, who was half loud at this time, didn't know how to respond.

Liu Mansion is the Liu Mansion that Tang Guoan wants to force his son to take the daughter. And the reason why he wants to match this family business, in addition to the so-called match, the most important thing is that Liu's business is far above his family.

The two businesses are the same, and the business of the Liu Mansion is bigger than his family, and Liu Yuanwai only has one daughter in his sixties this year, and there is no son to inherit the mantle. If his son marries the daughter of the Liu family, then the business of the Liu and Tang families will fall into the hands of his son, and the business of the Liu family cannot be the property of the Tang family.

If you want to marry the two families, you can't say that this will damage the reputation of the Liu family, but if you don't say it, you can't just praise Liu Yuanwai. Xiao Chusu's heart was Liu Fu when he was in Kyoto, and if he praised it like that, wouldn't the twenty-year deal be given to the Liu family in vain.

Originally, he still had a little worry in his heart, but when he was correcting his sorrows, he happened to hear Hanwha's laughter, and if he was free, he could write a letter of worship and go to Liu's Mansion to inquire in person, and his heart sank even more.

Although he has identified the relationship with the Liu family, the Liu Mansion has been ambiguous and unclear, and he has not given a word of approval. There was no accurate statement, and there was no reason for this so-called family affair, and now if these people really entered the Liu family in person. Not to mention this business matter, it is the daughter of the Liu family, if he accidentally sees these sons, I am afraid that the abacus of marriage in his heart will also be dispersed.

He is a clear-eyed person, and he also knows that these sons are by no means comparable to his own family, so if the young lady of the Liu family sees these sons, the family affairs of the Tang and Liu families will be even more impossible. The son-in-law is a native of Kyoto, and he was born a romantic family, the old fox of the Liu family is not a master who can be satisfied with the eyes of the people, if these sons really worship the post and enter the Liu family, there is no need to guess what will happen later.

Marriage.

Whether this family affair can be done, the eight characters have not been drawn clearly, but if this business is attributed to the Tang family, this has stepped on the Liu Mansion of his family for several years, and the position of the richest man in Qingzhen should also be changed. What is more beneficial to his family at the moment, how can Tang Guoan, who has been in the mall for many years, not know. After a few words, I also made up my mind.

The idea is decided, but this Tang Guoan is not a brainless master, so of course the bad words of the Liu family will not be said openly. After listening to Xiao Chuxuan's inquiry, Tang Guoan also smiled, and then said.

Miss Xiao asked Liu Yuanwai, this Liu Yuanwai is also one of the best squires in Qingzhen, although it is not often done to pave bridges and build roads in recent years, but if someone in the town starts, he will not be stingy with those silver taels, so he is also a little famous in Qingzhen. What a man! At least I personally feel that Liu Yuanwai is even good, and he can be a friend. It's just that Miss Xiao knows, although our two families are in Qingzhen, but after all, one of the Tang and Liu families is in the east and the other is in the west, so if Miss Xiao wants to ask what kind of person Liu Yuanwai is, it is really difficult for me to explain clearly, and I shouldn't rely on the Tao indiscriminately. ”

Tang Guoan's words were quite tactful, although he didn't explicitly depreciate them, but he could also hear the deep meaning of his words. He is not familiar with the Liu family, and he has no deep friendship, so he only knows the surface of what kind of person this Liu Yuanwai is. As for what kind of mind is in this bone, he doesn't know.

In a word, it doesn't have much to do with himself, but because of this sentence, the words can't help but make people feel a little weird. Master Tang's words made Xiao Chu raise his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't say anything, but smiled: "I don't have too many deep friendships, so I don't know the details, so it's the same." It was Chu Su who didn't think much about it, and hoped that Master Tang would not smile. This person is not clear to Master Tang, so what about business? Chu Su remembered that Master Xiao's family was also in the preserved fruit business, which was the same as the Liu family, and in the Liu family's business, Master Tang was clear? ”

"This business is even more unclear, Miss Xiao just said that our two families do the same business, in order to avoid unnecessary tongue-in-cheek, I don't have any dealings with their family in this business. If something goes wrong when you get it, it's also very troublesome. ”

"Really!" The voice was behind, and the voice of the answer sounded a little faint, Xiao Chu smiled and said: "It seems that Master Tang is a rare and solid person, he does his duty well, and he never pays attention to his surroundings." ”

"People are not like this, do some small business, and don't worry about food and clothing." Just as Tang Guoan's words fell, the housekeeper happened to serve tea and walked in. When he brought the tea to Xiao Chusu and Hanwha, and put the teacup on the table for the two, Tang Guoan just coughed dryly.

The dry cough made the housekeeper look over, just in time to see the old man glaring at him. Although he didn't say it bluntly, but this look made it straightforward, and the housekeeper understood at the moment, and took a few steps back and was about to go out, but the person retreated halfway as if he remembered something, and hurriedly turned around and said.

"By the way, sir, there was a word from the workshop just now, saying that the newly made preserved fruit is ready, and if the master is free, he will go and take a look."
