Chapter 21 Su's Silk

The carriage traveled for a while and finally found Shixin Street, Chen Bo and Lu Caiyun were afraid of missing the place, so they got off the carriage and walked. The coachman had no choice but to lead the horse with him, and along the way, Lu Caiyun saw that there were not many other things to buy in these ten new streets, and there were many silk shops.

They inquired all the way and finally came to the 'Su's silk', Caiyun saw that this Su's silk was actually a silk Zhuangzi, Chen Bo took everyone into the Zhuangzi, and when he saw someone coming in, the shopkeeper hurriedly asked: "How many people are buying silk?" You are not locals, so you are not here to sell silk! ”

"We, the shopkeepers, are here to find someone." After Chen Bo finished speaking, he handed over his father's handwritten letter.

After reading the letter, the shopkeeper said politely; "It turned out that I came to find the owner, wait a minute, I will send someone to find the owner immediately."

Lu Caiyun saw that the counter in this silk Zhuangzi was full of silk, and hurriedly walked over to look, she saw that the silk here was delicate and the patterns were bright and gorgeous. It was almost exactly the same as what his father-in-law sent, and he asked casually: "How much is this silk?" ”

"This young lady, the price of silk here is different, please ask for that." A guy in the store hurriedly greeted him and said.

"Can you introduce me to it?"

"Miss, you see that this kind of silk is a little worse, it is 500 yuan a horse, this kind of 700 yuan a horse, this kind of silk is silky, and the bright color is one or two silver horses." The young man said seriously.

Hearing the price of silk, Caiyun's eyes lit up, it seems that this trip to Suzhou was not in vain, Caiyun is calculating how many horses of silk he has to transport back to sell, in order to earn enough to pay back his father-in-law's thirty taels of silver every month, there must be a surplus, otherwise there is no way to buy.

At this time, I heard the guy run in and say, "Shopkeeper, the owner is here." ”

Caiyun saw a richly dressed middle-aged man come in, and this person saw Chen Bo hurriedly and said happily, "Nephew Chen Xian, why are you here?" ”

"Uncle, to tell you the truth, I came this time to sell some silk and sell it back." Chen Bo said without hesitation.

"Nephew wants to do silk business?" Su Hang asked.

"Uncle Su, this is my lady's name is Lu Caiyun, and she built me to do the silk business." Chen Bora passed by, Caiyun introduced.

"Caiyun is here to greet Uncle Su." Lu Caiyun hurriedly gave Su Hang a blessing.

"Excuse me, niece and daughter-in-law, I heard that you are the daughter of a famous merchant in Kyoto?"

"Didn't I hear, uncle, the little girl is Lu Caiyun, the daughter of the roader." Lu Caiyun introduced himself.

"No wonder, my virtuous nephew suddenly wants to start a business, it turned out to be my nephew's daughter-in-law's idea. Yes, my niece and daughter-in-law are good for doing business at a glance," Su Hang joked.

"Uncle smiled, he really had nothing to do all day, and he felt very bored, and he wanted to try to do some business to supplement the family, and my uncle also knew that our prefect had no other income, and it was really difficult to rely on my father's income to support a large family." Chen Bo said.

"Virtuous nephew, you have found the right person this time, your uncle and I have nothing else, some are silk and brocade. To tell you the truth, I opened two silk weaving factories and a printing and dyeing room, and I persuaded your father to partner with me more than once to do business, and I came to produce him for sales, but he just didn't dare, and what did others say that he colluded with officials and businessmen. Now that he is marrying the daughter of a merchant for his son, why is he not afraid of others saying that he colluded with officials and businessmen. ”

"Uncle, what Daddy said because he didn't want to do business, don't take it to heart." Chen Bo looked at Su Hang and persuaded embarrassedly.

"Who would blame him, I knew he just didn't want to do business and made excuses for himself."

"Uncle, I can see that the sales of silk in Suzhou are not very good, I have a Jianyi, why don't you produce it, how about we help you sell it?" Lu Caiyun looked at Su Hangjian and said.

"What do you mean?"

"Uncle, you have also seen that there are not many other things sold on this street, but there are several shops that sell silk and satin, and I have also asked the price, and the price is about the same as ours."

"Who says it's not, the most important thing in Suzhou is silk, and there are no less than 20 silk businesses alone, and the business is not good." Su Hang sighed.

"Uncle Su, why don't you try to sell your silk to the outside world?" Lu Caiyun asked curiously.

"Xiaoyun, don't you know, not everyone can afford silk, ordinary people don't wear silk and satin, only those dignitaries and wealthy families, in the field, we outsiders will be excluded. That's why I built your father-in-law to open a silk shop in Kyoto to help me sell it. ”

"Uncle, I also saw a few silk and satin houses in Kyoto, and their silk is not only of poor quality, but also very expensive. Why don't they come to us and buy some better quality silk and sell it? ”

"Niece and daughter-in-law, you don't know, the price of silk from here is not a problem, mainly the cost of transportation and the cost of darts, a batch of ordinary silk, in our place is less than 500 Wen, but you have to pay 400 Wen for freight, and one tael of silver for the dart, and this silk must be sold for at least two taels of silver so that it will not lose money."

Caiyun blinked and said, "I see! ”

"Alright, let's go back to the Humble House first." Su Hang looked at Caiyun and Chen Bo and said.

Su Hang brought Caiyun and the others back to his Yuanwaifu, and Lu Caiyun saw that Sufu was very magnificent, much larger than the prefect's mansion, and even bigger than his mother's Luyuan's Waifu.

After entering the courtyard gate, Su Hang asked his subordinates to arrange accommodation for the four servants and three coachmen, and he took Caiyun Chen Bo and Xiaochun to meet his wife, Lu Caiyun saw that Su Hang took them to a luxurious courtyard, and the little maid at the door smiled when she saw Su Hang coming back and said, "Welcome the master back." ”

"Is Madame there?" Chen Hang asked.

"Madame is talking to the little master." The maid replied.

Su Hang said to Chen Boyun: "I'll take you to the guest room first." ”

Several people followed Su Hang into a luxurious guest room, and Su Hang said to a little maid: "Go and invite your lady out, and say that you are a distinguished guest." ”

A few people were talking, when they heard the little maid outside say, "Madame and the little master are here." ”

Caiyun saw the door curtain raised, and a gorgeously dressed woman with kind eyebrows and kind eyes came in from outside, and said in her heart that this might be Su Hang's wife, and she was busy pulling Chen Bo's clothes, and the two of them hurriedly got up and saluted: "Nephew and niece and daughter-in-law see aunt." ”

Mrs. Su was talking to her son, but when she heard that a distinguished guest had come over with her son, she saw Chen Bo and Caiyun hurriedly asking; "Master, who are the two of you?"

"This is the son and daughter-in-law of Brother Chen in Kyoto." Su Hang explained.

"Xiao Bo has grown so big, and he married a lady, I remember that you were still in swaddling clothes when I went to your house with your Uncle Su." Mrs. Su recalled.

"That was eighteen years ago. By the way, Xiaoyu came over and saw your little brother and sister-in-law. Su Hang said to the young man behind Mrs. Su.

"Hello Brother Bo, Mrs. Sister-in-law, you are so beautiful, dare to ask you how old you are?" The young master ran to Lu Caiyun and asked-

Xiaoxi has opened a new pit, I hope you will read, recommend, and collect. Xiaoxi guarantees that the new pit is very exciting and will definitely attract you.
