Chapter 114: Collaborators
"Big brother laughed." Chen Qiuniang doesn't like to be praised like this. She is no longer a child, nor is she an ignorant teenager, in this troubled world, the last thing she needs is too sharp and bright. Therefore, I don't like the slightest praise from others.
"I'm serious. Sometimes when I look at you, I always think, if I had the same knowledge and insight as you did at your age. So what should I do now? Chen Wenzheng was full of envy for her tone.
"Big brother, don't see the thief eating well. When a thief is beaten, you can't see it. You should never envy others, because you don't know what kind of sadness other people's external brilliance and scenery have experienced. Chen Qiuniang said with emotion. Thinking of her precocious maturity in her previous life, she kept a calculating heart anytime and anywhere, and she really felt that she was very sad at that time, because there was no one to protect her, so she had to protect herself at a young age.
Chen Wenzheng seemed to have something to say, but Chen Qiuniang didn't like to continue the topic, so she said: "Big brother, I'm dizzy and want to go to sleep." If you need me for anything, have someone call me. ”
"Oh, good." Chen Wenzheng replied with some embarrassment.
Chen Qiu was inexplicably depressed, slowly returned to the backyard, fetched water, washed her face and feet, and lay down on the bed. Before she completely fell asleep, Pan Qing shouted all the way from the porter and ran in to knock on her door: "Young Master Cousin, Young Master Cousin, get up, get up quickly." ”
"Panqing, can't you be a little more gentle? So babbling, chattering. Mrs. Chen rebuked Pan Qing softly.
"I was so excited that I forgot about it. Don't be angry, ma'am. I'm sure I'll change it. Pan Qing said with a grin.
Mrs. Chen also smiled and sighed and said, "Okay, I just think that you will also be the one who will run around in business in the future, big and small, you and your son-in-law are going to go out." You can't just babble like that. ”
"Yes, ma'am." Pan Qinglang voice assured.
Mrs. Chen then asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Tianxianglou, the head of Tianxianglou came to our hotel to talk about cooperation. Childe asked me to ask my cousin to come over. Pan Qing replied.
"Tianxianglou is the place of the female servant, talk to us about cooperation?" Although Mrs. Chen has always been kind and kind, she is a woman from a white family, so there is also a little dissatisfaction in her tone at this moment.
Chen Qiuniang had already shouted and ran over all the way in Panqing, so she turned over and got up and dressed carefully. Although she was nine years old and was born in an era of war and chaos, because she lived the life of an eldest lady as soon as she was born, although she had a hard time for most of the year, she was not short. Today, the men's clothes made for her by Mrs. Chen and Xiaoqing are not boys' clothes, but juvenile clothes, gray robes, all of which have oblique sleeves, black edges on the neckline, and white cross-collar lining. Because she was underage, she never wore a hat, so she took a gray scarf, tied her hair into a bun with a blue ribbon, and combed it meticulously on the top of her head, and a folding fan was a semi-finished fan that she asked Panqing to buy. Drinking Dongpo at night and waking up and getting drunk", Chen Wenzheng was shocked when he first looked at this lyric, saying that this scholar has always looked down on the lyrics, and those are all the things of the boudoir and can't be put on the stage. can look at this one, but the world is open.
Chen Qiuniang chuckled, only saying that this was not done by herself, but by an old Taoist priest in Qingcheng Mountain when she was in Qingcheng County in the past. She thought it was good, so she memorized it.
"This, in short, this is an eye-opener for me, this word is of different lengths, but it can also have a great artistic conception." Chen Wenzheng said with a sigh.
Chen Qiuniang took the opportunity to hide her face and encourage, saying: "The eldest brother is brilliant, in the future, you can try to use words to write the feelings of scholars, or write the state of the people, express your thoughts on life, or express your worries about the country and the people." ”
"Okay." Chen Wenzheng was very happy and carefully painted the fan surface for her.
Since then, Jiang Danfeng has been wearing a gray straight shirt, long clothes and wide sleeves, a square scarf to tie his hair, and a folding fan in his hand, and his every move is completely like a handsome son.
"That's right. I don't think it's appropriate either. But Gongzi privately said that Tianxiang Building can now be said to be the first floor in Shuzhong. Many dignitaries and nobles come to Shuzhong, and they always have to make a detour to this Liuhe Town, and go to Tianxianglou to see the extremely luxurious Houshu court dance. The strength cannot be underestimated, so I asked me to come to my cousin to have a look. "Pan Qing is reporting to Mrs. Chen.
Chen Qiuniang had finished dressing, and when Panqing knocked on the door again, she opened the door and said, "Let's go, I heard it." ”
"Danfeng, what do you think?" Mrs. Chen's tone was quite eager, and she probably still felt that the Chen family was a serious businessman, although the society was still generally a lowly businessman, but it was better than a Yiji Lingren.
"That's a good thing." Chen Qiuniang said loudly.
Mrs. Chen's face couldn't help but sink, and she was a little embarrassed and didn't know what language to use, so she only asked, "Danfeng, do you know what kind of place Xianglou is that day?" ”
"Qinglou." Chen Qiuniang replied generously.
"This, do you know what kind of place this green building is? How can this be cooperated? Mrs. Chen kept shaking her head, she obviously thought that Chen Qiuniang was too young, and she didn't know that this Tianxianglou was a place for fireworks.
"The land of wind and dust is just ushering in. I inquired a few days ago, the owner of this Tianxiang Building is the former dynasty of the teaching lady, dancing in the city, and brought a group of court servants, in Shu is also famous. On this day, the people who were sent to Xianglou were all dignitaries. To tell the truth, if we rely on ourselves to climb the ranks of officials and nobles, even if we exert a hundred percent of our strength, we can only accomplish one thing. But they can easily help us with that part of the feast. Chen Qiuniang stood under the eaves of the porch, analyzing for Mrs. Chen.
"But—" Mrs. Chen grimaced.
Chen Qiuniang continued: "It's all about doing business openly, and there is no zài who is higher than whom." If you want to make your business bigger, you must be intimidating and see the interests represented behind the people. Auntie, rest assured, even so, our Yunlai Hotel has its own bottom line. ”
"Well, I don't understand this ——,. I just think it's not too good to be mixed with Tianxianglou. Mrs. Chen said.
Chen Qiuniang knew that in fact, Mrs. Chen had already agreed with what she said, but she couldn't quite accept this kind of thing as cooperating with Qinglou.
"Auntie, I won't insult the ancestors of the Chen family, don't worry." Chen Qiuniang patted Mrs. Chen's hand, and then walked quickly to the inn with Panqing.
In the lobby of the inn, at the square table, Chen Wenzheng sat speechless with a woman dressed in purple.
The woman in purple looked like she was about thirty years old, combing her flying hair in a bun, with a golden step, a bright moon on her ears, wearing a xia veil, a short shirt, a skirt, red phoenix eyes, willow eyebrows, plum blossom makeup on her forehead, powdered on her face, wiped her blush, and looked quite bewitching.
There was also a thin woman in yellow standing next to the woman in purple, it was Chen Qiuniang who saw Chunxiang with Na Nian Nuer at the gate of Tianxiang Building that day.
"Cousin, you're disturbing people's dreams. It's not about big or small matters, my cousin is in charge. Chen Qiuniang entered through the back door, picked up the curtain and walked towards them with a loud smile.
When Chen Wenzheng saw Chen Qiuniang coming, he was relieved, got up and said: "Having said that, this is the industry that our brothers have joined forces, and if you have a heavy decision, of course you have to make a decision together." Nowadays, this Tianxianglou King is a noble and big guest. Naturally, it can only wake you up. ”
"It turned out to be the king's family. Look up for a long time. As soon as Chen Qiuniang's folding fan knocked on her hand, she bowed.
This lady Wang's eyes were tight, and her eyes were full of scrutiny. Chen Qiuniang was nervous, could it be that this skin was really a curse, or that she had to go back to Liucun when she had time, so she had to ask Chen Liu's carefully.
"Master." That Chunxiang was clever, and when she saw that the king was distracted for a moment, she bent down slightly and shouted.
When Mrs. Wang came back to her senses, she chuckled, bowed slightly, and said, "I'm really stunned, I didn't expect the cousin of Gongzi Chen's family to be so young. is really a hero out of a teenager, and the slave family is really an eye-opener. ”
"Wang, you are too polite. Who doesn't know that you are a person who is used to seeing big scenes, and Jiang's little things accumulated by his ancestors can only make you laugh. Chen Qiuniang was also polite to her, and then shook her clothes and sat on the bench in a chic manner.
Mrs. Wang just looked at him, with a slight smile in her expression, and said calmly: "I see that you are about to open, and you must be busy, and I will not beat around the bush." I've been watching you reopen the hotel ever since. She paused when she said this, and Chen Qiuniang and Chen Wenzheng didn't plan to answer, so she continued, "Actually, we are also neighbors, and this is just a matter of a few steps." In addition, I am also worried about whether the old shopkeeper's unique skills will be passed on. So, I'm looking forward to your hotel. ”
"Thank you for your attention, don't worry, this restaurant will open in a few days, to ensure that the food you eat is delicious in the world." Chen Qiuniang's gestures are all the style of Brother Gongzi. In Panqing's words, as soon as Chen Qiuniang wears men's clothes like this, she really doesn't look like a girl, but she is a beautiful boy.
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she smiled and said, "This is very good." ”
On the opening day, Mrs. Wang was one of the guests of our Yunlai Hotel. Even if you don't come, I'll visit you in person in a few days. Chen Qiuniang folded the fan.
Mrs. Wang shook her head and said, "I'll be honest, I don't care what kind of guests I do." I've heard what kind of equity system you are doing, and I'm very curious. Moreover, I heard that you are also full of confidence, and you will also make signs and open branches. I thought I'd come and talk to you in person to see if it was worth working with you. ”
"Mr. Wang not only has excellent dancing skills, but also has a first-class grasp of business opportunities, and his vision is even more far-reaching. Yes, our ambition is not only to put food first in Liuhe Town or Shuzhou, but to have Yunlai Hotel where there are people. Chen Qiuniang once again incarnated as that kind of hot-blooded training instructor, with suitable gestures every word, and a subdued tone, which was extremely charming.
But after all, Wang Niangzi came out of the palace workshop, and she was used to seeing big scenes, so she didn't open her eyes as wide as Chunxiang beside her.
"Oh? Tell me, then, how you can fulfill your ambitions. Wang Niangzi raised her voice.
Chen Qiuniang shook her head with a smile and said, "Everyone Wang, in business, every family has its own secrets. I can't advise you with all due respect. However, I can introduce the equity system and the trial regulations of the equity subscription of Yunlai Hotel in detail. If the time comes, Wang everyone thinks that we are worthy of your cooperation, it is okay to sign the confirmation letter again. ”
Wang Niangzi squinted slightly, straightened up and exhaled, and said, "You are full of confidence, then I can pay the money immediately if I subscribe for two percent of the shares." But you have to convince me. ”
"No problem. But the king may have forgotten one thing. Chen Qiuniang said loudly.
"Oh? What's the matter? Wang Niangzi's face was as usual, even if she asked, her expression did not fluctuate in the slightest. RS
