Chapter 54: A Chance Encounter
"Okay, someone will deliver it to your house in the afternoon." The shopkeeper nodded happily, selling one is a lot of commission.
"Where's your boss?" Zhou Xiya asked casually, in such a lucrative business, she naturally knew that many people would rush to cooperate with the owner of this store, and she would definitely not be able to share anything, but she still didn't give up wanting to ask, even if the cooperation failed, it would be beneficial to communicate more with such a boss, and this only money-making business could not be figured out by anyone.
"The owner entertains guests on the second floor." The shopkeeper explained, and while he was talking, Zhou Xiya saw the two of them walking down the stairs.
"The boss and the guests are down." The shop is small and two-pointed.
"Miss Zhou, what a coincidence, are you here to buy something?" It was Li Mu who came down with the boss.
"Yes, I didn't expect to meet Li Gongzi here." Zhou Xiya took two steps forward and said with a smile.
"Is the injury on his head better, I met your second brother yesterday, he is about to become the groom's official, it's really proud." Li Mu asked with concern.
"It's much better, can't I go out shopping anymore, I haven't seen my second brother for two days." Zhou Xiya bowed her head slightly and stirred her fingers.
"Two guests sit here, Xiao Er, go and serve tea." The boss greeted.
"Miss Zhou, can I buy a clock that suits my heart?" Li Mu sat down, he could afford to buy things here, so there were not many customers in the store, and there was no one in the store now, but he could sit down and talk, this store was his, but even the shopkeeper here didn't know that he was the real boss.
"I bought one, it's so expensive." Zhou Xiya winked playfully. Five hundred taels of silver was nothing to her, and this price was enough for the luxury goods she bought.
"Hehe, because it is the only one, the scarcity is expensive, and no one can make a clock to accurately see the time, and it is very convenient, so it is naturally sought after by people." Li Mu smiled, he doesn't go to compete with traditional industries, he walks all about emerging industries, but unfortunately, this is not very suitable for the real estate industry, otherwise, he will definitely make a big development.
"I admire the person who invented this thing, and the owner of this house, can hold such a thing tightly in his hand, this is a cash cow, I don't know how many people want to get a piece of the pie, but now it is still the only one, and it has not been counterfeited, which is not something that ordinary people can do." Zhou Xiya's face was full of appreciation, and she really wanted to get to know the boss behind the scenes.
Li Mu is a little complacent, because she knows that the person Zhou Xiya praises is herself, Zhou Xiya said a lot, he only touched part of the benefits of this shop, most of the benefits have been divided, with their escort, his business will be so stable, even if it is counterfeit, they will also help clean up, in the next two or three years, there will be no counterfeit products in the market, they will first make enough money before they let go of the market, who dares to counterfeit now, is to snatch food from the hands of which bigwigs, purely looking for death.
He didn't look down on the imitation ability of the ancients from a young age, but now he is not worried at all.
"Yes, money can make ghosts grind, and someone will escort you, so it will be smooth sailing." Li Mu put down the teacup.
"I don't know if our family can cooperate with this boss, but now it seems that there is little hope." Zhou Xiya shook her head helplessly, she came back too late.
"What, Miss Zhou also knows how to do business?" Li Mu was curious, like these young ladies, aren't they ashamed to be with businessmen, not to mention taking the initiative to cooperate with businessmen in advance, even if they cooperate, it is the housekeeper who comes forward to negotiate.
He can see these high-ranking families clearly, his heart is darker than anyone else, but he wants to save face, and he can't make any effort to make money, and he has to account for the majority, and there is no difference between the officials who want to do shares in later generations, since ancient times, officials and businessmen are a family, but where do you know, this businessman is not easy, no matter how powerful a businessman is, it is not as good as an official, especially in ancient times, it is too easy to go bankrupt.
"A little dabbling, I don't dare to understand, my aunt was born in the Dong family, I have been by her side since I was a child, I have been exposed to it, I have learned something different, I don't have to press my body, it's better than handing over everything to my subordinates, and I don't know if I'm deceived." Zhou Xiya smiled, she didn't think there was anything to be ashamed of, and she liked this business more, especially when a large amount of money was brought in, looking at a large number in the account book, the sense of accomplishment at that time was not comparable to that of Miss Boudoir's poetry and painting.
"The aunt in Miss Zhou's mouth is talking about the third aunt who was born in the Dong family?" It is said that the love between Miss Zhou's third uncle and the third aunt was vigorous, and now her third uncle and mother have no children, but the third child of the Bai family still does not give up, and there is no concubine, but it makes the women envious, the top ten good men in the capital, and the third child of the Bai family can be ranked in the top five. The Dong family is a top rich man, an imperial businessman, and his status is not comparable to that of ordinary small businessmen.
"Yes, don't look at my aunt as a woman, but she is very talented in business, her father regretted that she gave birth to a daughter, otherwise she would be enough to support the Dong family's family business, but now my aunt rarely takes care of things, but I run to the deep mountains and old forests with my uncle if I have nothing to do." Although Zhou Xiya was a little helpless in her words, she was very envious of the relationship between her uncle and aunt, the two of them washed away their glory, and the only thing left was the two of them.
"Miss Zhou, are you really different from other girls?" Li Mu looked at Zhou Xiya deeply, in ancient times, it was not easy for him to find a like-minded woman, if the real lady of the family knew that he was in business, she would definitely look down on him in her heart, even if he had the shell of a wealthy son, and he didn't want to marry a girl who didn't understand him.
"Where, I still think my preferences are too niche and a little unsociable." Zhou Xiya smiled embarrassedly, the lady of the family doesn't like to do business, and the merchant woman is also eager to get rid of the reality of her business background in order to marry better, but it is really because the status of the merchant is too low.
She is too well protected by the elders and brothers in the family, her life is too wanton, and her future husband will definitely not dare to give her grievances, so she is not worried at all.
At this time, there were customers in the store, and the two would not sit in the store and chat casually, so they had to get up and leave.
Standing on the road, Li Mu opened his mouth to send him off, "Miss Zhou, it's getting dark, why don't I send you home?" ”
"Well, then thank you Gongzi Li." Zhou Xiya did not refuse, although her carriage was guarded by four family members.
"Be careful!" Li Mu hugged Zhou Xiya and dodged to the side, only to see a man running over quickly, if Li Mu hadn't pulled her away, she would have been bumped in, it was already a little dark at this time, that person might have something urgent.
Li Mu let go of his hand
"Thank you" Zhou Xiya covered her chest, she was not frightened, but shy, and was hugged by the person she liked, although it was only a moment, but it was enough for her to blush and beat for a while.
The two looked at each other, and sparks collided
"Let's go" Li Mu was also a little intoxicated, just getting closer, he smelled the faint fragrance of magnolia flowers on Zhou Xiya's body, fresh and elegant, although the taste is not as strong as the fragrance of roses, but it is in line with Zhou Xiya's temperament and complements each other.
Back in the house, Zhou Xiya still felt a little unreal, her steps were slightly brisk, and occasionally the corners of her mouth would unconsciously curl, showing her good mood, but she didn't expect to go shopping on a whim, but she ran into him, is this fate?
"Miss, you're back." Mama Zhou stepped forward and took Zhou Xiya's cloak and handed it to Jinxiu.
"Well, has the lord ever returned?" Zhou Xiya sat down and asked casually, as soon as she went out, it was a day, and she was really tired and panicked.
"The lord hasn't come back yet, but he sent someone to say that the lord and his colleagues went to the restaurant for dinner, and they will come back later." Mama Zhou handed over a cup of hot tea.
"Dad's drinking game continues, if you drink like this, your body will be drunk, this is not a border pass, you need to drink to warm up, I must take care of him when I turn back." Zhou Xiya pouted.
Mama Zhou smiled, the master listened to the words of the young lady the most, it seems that the master should not want to be greedy.
