Chapter 137: Small Talk and Cooperation
After Zhenniang met the princess again, she became the ink-making worship of the princess's mansion, and then, the matter of birthday ink was handled by Li Mo.
Although Zhen Niang has become the worship of the princess's mansion, she does not need to live in the princess's mansion, but takes care of all the things related to ink making in the princess's mansion, such as the ink used in the princess's mansion on weekdays, and the gift ink given by the princess in the festival, etc., and these are just according to the princess's meaning, after the concubine designs the ink style, and then makes it in the Li family's ink workshop.
In short, the degree of freedom of this offering is quite high, and it is actually equivalent to some professional consultants in later generations.
After some of the ceremonies that should be seen, Zhen Niang said goodbye and returned to Li's Mozhuang, and at this time, Li's Mozhuang was a celebration. It is Zhenniang who has traveled all the way, but anyone who is close to the left, whether they know it or not, they all arch their hands and say hello to Zhenniang.
"Congratulations." When passing by Yihousheng Qianzhuang, Luo Wenqian stood by the door, dressed in an azure robe, with a square scarf on his head, and said hello to Zhenniang with a smile in his eyebrows.
He was also followed by a half-year-old boy of about twelve or thirteen years old, a little stubborn between his eyebrows, and seemed to be a little shy, and at this time he also learned from Luo Wenqian's appearance and arched his hands to say goodbye
"Rejoice and rejoice." Zhen Niang also replied with a smile, in fact, she has not understood too much, weishenme when others say joy in this era, most of them respond to Tongxi, and then ponder more, and some understand, in fact, the meaning of Tongxi is not that the other party must have a happy event, but my happy event, let the other party be happy, so it became Tongxi, in later words, it was just a good mouthpiece.
Then he said to Luo Wenqian: "Who is this?" ”
The kid pursed his mouth and didn't speak, Luo Wenqian patted the back of his head before saying, "The boy of the third uncle's family of my clan, life at home is a little difficult. I heard that I was in Nanjing. So they brought him. I took it with me and asked him to study hard. ”
"Oh." Zhen Niang nodded, and then remembered that although Luo Wenqian's direct elders were missing, there were many people in the Luo clan, and if something happened to the Luo family, the Luo clan was also affected, and now Luo Wenqian is also the number one person. It is also necessary to support a few tribesmen.
Then chatted a few words, Zhen Niang returned to Mozhuang, as soon as she entered the door, the flowers jumped over, still holding the flint in her hand, and when she saw Zhen Niang, she stuffed the flint into Zhen Niang's hand: "The second aunt said, you will have to order a cannon battle in a while." ”
Sure enough, as soon as Hua'er's words fell, Zheng Fuli and Mozhuang's men came over with a few strings of Baizi Qiansun cannons and hung them on a bamboo fork.
Just wait for Zhenniang to light it.
In his previous life, the grandfather in the family was old. The firecrackers at midnight on the Chinese New Year's Eve were all lit by Zhenniang, so. At this time, lighting this firecracker can be regarded as a light one, Zhen Niang squinted and carefully hit the flint, after lighting the lead, Zhen Niang jumped to the side, and then covered her ears, while the flowers also ran behind her, covering her ears, smiling with thief eyebrows, and immediately, there was a crackling sound.
In this way, it was lively for a while, and in the evening, Aunt Ma took a few workers' mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of Mozhuang, so haode held a banquet, but did not invite outsiders, but the workers and daughters-in-law of Mozhuang, everyone got together, and had a lively meal, which was a congratulatory meal, and it was also to tell everyone that everyone had to cheer up for the next birthday Mo, so that haode could complete the task.
In this way, this scene can be regarded as a general mobilization.
The next day, the eldest aunt's family also got good news, and the uncle and aunt also came to the door with the sister-in-law Chen.
"Oh, I really can't imagine it, when I came at the beginning of the year, your seventh grandmother also told me that this Li Mo's situation is not something that can be opened in a while, after all, it is to take it slowly, there is a period of two or three years, I think the situation should be able to improve, but I didn't think about it, there is no way out of doubt, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village, this blink of an eye, Zhenniang has become the ink making worship of the princess's mansion, and also got the business of birthday ink, now in Nanjing, I want to see who else will underestimate Li Mo." The eldest aunt said a little proudly.
"The eldest aunt is too complimentary, in fact, this time it was Grandpa Qi who gave in, otherwise, where would I win him." Zhen Niang said sincerely on the side.
"That's a good thing to say, but that Qi Si is a character with the same name as your grandfather, compared to you, he wins and falls." The eldest aunt retorted.
In this way, Zhenniang shook her head, and stopped answering, her eldest aunt has this temperament, and Grandpa Qi's affection is always clear in her heart.
Zhen Niang chatted with the eldest aunt for a few days, then went downstairs into the ink workshop, since Li Mo got the right to make ink for the birth of the ink, Zhen Niang became the ink-making worship of the princess's mansion, this is just a short two days of work, Li's ink village has received a few ink-making business, plus it is autumn, it is the time of ink-making, and then, Zhen Niang will be busy without a little free time.
Watching Zhen Niang leave, Han Li said to Huang: "This world is all about watching dishes, Zhen Niang has been coming to Nanjing for more than half a year, on weekdays, I attended some ladies' parties, and some people told me about Zhen Niang, one or two gave a thumbs up and said that he was capable, but he didn't see any lady who took a fancy to Zhen Niang, but now, the news that Zhen Niang has become the ink making worship of the princess's mansion has just come out, and someone has come to me to say something." ”
"Which one?" Huang asked with a frown.
"The princess of the warden of Tianfu is talking about her maiden brother, the Wang family of Huai'an." Han Li said.
"You still send this kind of family, I heard Zhen Niang say in private, the princess is a worry-free, now the emperor is not in good health, there is some chaos in the court, the princess came to Nanjing with a horse, in order to avoid trouble, these people are good, they actually want to use Zhen Niang to climb the princess, such a family, our Li family can not afford it, Zhen Niang told me, she is in the princess's mansion, only the relationship between the ink system, those with other thoughts, all returned, don't pay attention." Huang said with some resentment.
Although the Wang family is from Huai'an, they have settled in Nanjing in recent years, and they are engaged in the salt industry, and they are also wealthy. Besides. Several sons of the Wang family are all high-rollers of Qinhuai's prostitutes. Doufu. The fight for women is not less, and the salt is closely related to the government, the Wang family mentioned it at this time, needless to say, it is that Zhen Niang has become the princess's mansion ink making and worshipping, and it is really wishful thinking.
The Li family doesn't want such a person, and when her mother-in-law returned to Huizhou last time, she told her cautiously. Zhen Niang's daughter's family is doing business for the clan's Mozhuang, how can she not treat her badly, especially in this family matter, at least a little, the man really likes Zhen Niang, there is no underestimation of the mind, and it is only possible to be Hao Niang of Zhen Niang.
Han Li nodded: "I'm the same, but it's best for Zhenniang's family affairs to find an opportunity to make an order, otherwise." In the future, there will be more ideas. ”
"Yes, though. This time I am busy, and when I am busy, it will be the moon, and then we will go back to Huizhou for the New Year, and then I will discuss it with Zhen Niang and her mother and grandparents. Huang said.
Han Li nodded.
Here Zhenniang just entered the ink workshop, and Ah Tang on the ink village came to call someone, saying that Mr. Hu from the Huizhou Chamber of Commerce had arrived.
This Mr. Hu is Hu Zonglin, Zhen Niang hurriedly greeted him, Hu Zonglin is not the president of the Chamber of Commerce now, and his life has been a lot more leisurely, and his complexion is three points better than before.
However, Hu Zonglin's connections are there, and some things in the Chamber of Commerce are still inseparable from him.
"Zhenniang, you have to get it, and you can fight for our Hui businessmen." Hu Zonglin also said happily when he saw Zhenniang.
"It's all about the support of Hui businessmen." Zhen Niang also smiled.
Later, Hu Zonglin explained his intention, but he said something for the Tian family, first, it was the matter of ink, Tian Benchang hoped to obtain the right to produce ink like the Cheng family, of course, the money should be the same. The second is that Hope, the Tian family, the Li family, the Cheng family, and the three families work together to occupy the Mo market in Nanjing, and at the same time occupy the surrounding market.
"They are all businesses under the Chamber of Commerce, and harmony is precious, under this struggle, it is beneficial for outsiders to benefit, which is not conducive to their own development, so I also hope that the three families of Tian Li Cheng will work together to compete fairly, and jointly start the brand of Huimo." Hu Zonglin said. After thinking about it, he added: "This time, the eldest prince of Tian is also a little sincere, he invited me to come forward, and he also asked me to be a witness, if the Tian family makes such crooked means of fighting behind the scenes in the future, not to mention that your Li family and Cheng family can't tolerate him, even the Huizhou Chamber of Commerce can't tolerate it." ”
When it comes to tolerating, Hu Zonglin is also calm, this time he said that it was not for the face of the Tian family, but for the development of Hui merchants, and now Hui merchants have just started, and they are far worse than Jin merchants, but the momentum is good, and the Jin merchants have also seen that the suppression of Hui during this period of time is more powerful.
In such an extraordinary period, Hu Zonglin didn't want the merchants in the Hui Merchants to fight to the death. At that time, it was cheaper for outsiders, and outsiders watched the joke.
Therefore, he said something for the Tian family, after all, it was the Tian family who provoked trouble first, and now that he has come forward, if the Tian family provokes trouble again, let alone the Li family, even he Hu Zonglin will not tolerate it.
Zhenniang heard Hu Zonglin's words, and knew that this was Hu Zonglin's guarantee to her Li family.
Regarding the development of cooperation, when Tian Benchang first arrived, he mentioned to her that Zhen Niang also said that he would sit on his words and watch his deeds, and although this time Gongmo's election, the Tian family also used some means to let the Mo Secretary and Lord Liu send the old man Qi to come forward, but this is a conspiracy after all, Tian Benchang himself is not a master of ink making, and the master of the Tian family can't catch up in Huizhou, so it is also said that it is past to ask the master to come forward. And apart from this, the Tian family behind him didn't use any other means this time, so it can be regarded as Tian Benchang didn't talk nonsense before.
As peers, business battles are inevitable, that is, the Li family and the Cheng family, in fact, occasionally there are some calculations and fights with each other, which is understandable. As long as all battles are fought without the use of intrigue and trickery, it is a struggle, and it is also based on each person's ability.
Now coupled with Hu Zonglin's assurance, Zhenniang will not give Hu Zonglin face, so she said.
"Well, the formula of the ink can be given to the Tian family, as long as the Tian family signs a contract, like the Cheng family and the Zhu family, they will pay the formula usage fee in ten years." Zhen Niang said, Zhen Niang didn't plan to monopolize the ink formula, the Cheng family and the Zhu family are now producing, and now with the Tian family, the Li family can collect an extra profit. With the Tian family's sales share, the Li family's profits from the Tian family will exceed the sum of the Cheng family and the Zhu family, so why don't you make this large amount of money?
"As for fighting, as long as the Tian family doesn't stir up trouble, our Li family has always been kind and profitable, and compete fairly." Zhen Niang said again. Originally, Huimo infighting, the cheap can only be outsiders, if the three cooperate and make the cake bigger, it will be beneficial to the three.
"Okay, then, find a time, I'll make an appointment with the three of you to sit down and talk about it." Hu Zonglin said with a smile.
Zhenniang nodded, whether it is the Li family's birthday ink, the Tian family's tribute ink, or the development of the Cheng family, it is a good thing that they need a safe period, can cooperate, and produce with peace of mind.
Then Hu Zonglin took his leave.
