Chapter 118: Tian Er's Great Chess
A few days later, the wound on Zeng Yipin's forehead was closed, and Zhen Niang sincerely invited him again, and Zeng Yipin Zuihou agreed to enter Li's Mozhuang as an offering.
So the Zeng Yipin incident, which was noisy some time ago, finally settled.
After Zeng Yipin entered Li's Mozhuang, Zhenniang specially held a reception banquet in a restaurant on Guanjie.
According to the news from the Tian family, Tian Er smashed several porcelain bowls from Jingdezhen and beat two more guys to get angry.
But in the end, the Li Tian family knows the roots, and Tian Er can't be the head of the Tian family after all, so it's difficult to find some trouble for the Li family, and it's just boring to talk about himself, so he just stayed in Tian's Mozhuang for a few days, and then ignored it.
And Zeng Yipin's arrival really helped the Li family a lot.
Not to mention the others, it was the original customer of the Wei family, relying on the relationship of Zeng Yipin, who dug up a few households from the Tian family, and the mid-range ink that the Li family had been unable to walk finally began to open a gap.
Because of this, the people in the ink shop began to fully accept Zeng Yipin.
Soon after the opening of Lijia Mozhuang, in addition to the buying and selling of ink, there are not too many things on the cabinet, the ink itself is a long-term accumulation process, not in a hurry, Zeng Yipin itself ink skills are extraordinary, and there is a warm-hearted temperament, seeing that there are not many things on the counter, he often goes to the ink shop in the backyard.
Helping workers to identify smoke and ink, even boiling glue can also put forward some eye-catching opinions, but it has been praised by the top and bottom of the ink village, and Zhen Niang is also happy to see it.
Most of the workers here are newly recruited, and several masters are teaching, but they are all the same. Only once a product. He's a jack of all trades. The horizons should be broadened a lot, and it is good to have the ink skills that Zeng Yipin stared at everyone.
Therefore, Zhen Niang did not interfere with Zeng Yipin's behavior, even on the ink side, Zhen Niang did not hide anything, Zeng Yipin sometimes passed, looking at the procedures of the ink one by one, and sighed that the ink making industry is really alive and learning.
"Girl. What the hell are you doing, this Zeng Yipin is obviously problematic, and you just let him walk around the ink shop? Early in the morning, the ugly woman swept the floor in the backyard, and Zhen Niang walked to her side, and the ugly woman put down the broom and glanced at Zhen Niang.
Zeng Yipin may have something wrong, Zhen Niang didn't tell the people in the ink shop, mainly because it's not completely sure, it's just some speculation, and it's not good to say it. Secondly. I also don't want to startle the snake, therefore. only asked the ugly woman to stare at it, the ugly woman was just a sweeper, and no one would care about her, so Zeng Yipin's behavior fell into her eyes.
"Well, I know in my heart that except for ink, other inks have not been produced in the ink workshop, and I am not afraid of what he has learned." Ink making is in spring and autumn, and in summer, because of the hot weather, the ink is perishable, so generally summer and winter are the stage of storing bituminous coal. The ink sold on Mozhuang is now transported from Huizhou, and Mozhuang has not yet started to make a large number of ink, and now it is all by workers who are burning tobacco to prepare for ink making in autumn.
The ugly woman heard Zhenniang's words, and snorted coldly, this girl was bluffing with her, and she was talking about ink, if this ink formula was really leaked, the Li family's loss would be great. However, this girl was interested in selling off, and the ugly woman didn't bother to pay attention to it, waving her hand and letting Zhenniang leave, so as not to hinder her from sweeping the floor.
Zhenniang grinned and turned away.
It's the middle of summer in a blink of an eye, and the second season of raw silk acquisition is coming to an end.
However, the recent purchase of raw silk is quite a big trouble, the silkworm cocoons were directly purchased by the silk factory, but this year, it is received by the yamen from all over the country, and the price of the silkworm cocoon is nearly two percent lower than in previous years.
And if it is purchased by the yamen, the people's right to speak will be lower, and I heard that some of the silkworm cocoons of the obvious high-grade products are only sold by the yamen at the price of second-class products, and now the silkworm farmers are complaining.
However, these, Zhen Niang is just a casual chat after dinner, she herself is also a small person, she can't care about these, she can only focus on her own ink industry.
Near noon, Zheng Fuli just sent a batch of goods to the Mowang Pavilion in the capital, and returned to Mozhuang, sweating all over his face, that is, the whole back of the summer shirt was sweaty, and he went back to the backyard to change his clothes, and then came back to hand in the bills, and Zhenniang asked Xiaoya to serve him a bowl of sour plum soup. I used the well water from the old well in the backyard before, and it was refreshing to drink this day.
Zheng Fuli held this sour plum soup, and his heart was sweet.
"Haha, I met the Tian family when I delivered the goods just now, and Tian Er saw that I delivered the goods to Mowang Pavilion, and his face turned green with anger. He also put cruel words on me, saying that it was too early to be complacent, and the good show was ahead, ha, he could only send such cruel words. Zheng Fuli drank a bowl of sour plum soup in one bite, and said with a sneer.
Listening to Zheng Fuli's words, Zhen Niang's clear eyes darkened, and she turned her face to Zeng Yipin, who was leisurely sipping tea on the side, and said, "This is all the credit of Mr. Zeng." ”
That Mowangge was originally a customer of the Wei family, and was later pulled to the Tian family by Zeng Yipin, and now Zeng Yipin came to the Li family, and got the list of Mowangge to the Li family, Mowangge is in the capital, it can be regarded as a big bookstore, Li Jiamo through the Mowangge, and finally entered the capital market.
You must know that in the past, Li Mo was prone to dry cracks in the north. He has long been driven out of the capital market.
"The virgin girl is too polite, the credit is not deserved, but without me, it is only a matter of time before Mowangge zuihou finds the Li family, not to mention the quality of Li Mo, even this ink Najia shopkeeper has also asked me several times, and now it can only be said that it is a matter of course." Zeng Yipin said with a smile. And he and Li's shopkeeper Jia are the three shopkeepers of Mowang Pavilion.
At this moment, the boy of Zeng Yipin's family entered Mozhuang with an anxious face: "Dad, my grandfather is critically ill, let someone bring a letter to see my mother, my mother can't cry at home, you go home quickly." ”
Zeng Yipin was also anxious when he heard this, and arched his hand at Zhenniang, obviously asking for leave.
Zhen Niang is not allowed to do this kind of thing, and she also asked someone to pay some money from the cabinet to Zeng Yipin for emergency use, which is not much. That is, a little bit of meaning.
Zeng Yipin thanked him. Then followed the kid out of Li's Mozhuang. went straight out of Guanjie, but did not stay away, but went around in a circle, and passed through several private houses from the other end of Guanjie from the small road, and entered Tian's Mozhuang.
The so-called father-in-law is critically ill or something, and he also ordered his own son in advance.
"Mr. Zeng, you're here." Over there, Tian Er greeted him respectfully, but there was no trace of arrogance.
The two of them entered the inner hall. The two sides sat down, let the servants serve tea, and then closed the door. And he commanded the girl to keep watch outside, and not to let anyone listen.
At this time, Zeng Yipin took out the ink cube from his body, Tian Er stretched out his hand to take it, but Zeng Yipin held the ink cube in his hand and drew a circle and stuffed it into his arms.
Tian Er was a little annoyed: "Master Zeng, why are you doing this?" ”
"Pay with one hand, deliver with the other." Zeng Yipin said with a smile, to be honest, he was not optimistic about Tian Er of the Tian family at all, and the reason why he lost his reputation this time did not want to. is also because he also took a fancy to the Li family's ink, and then got a sum of money from the Tian family. He took his family back to his hometown, with an ink formula, and now with his savings for many years and the money given by the Tian family, he can do a little career in his hometown, and it can be regarded as returning to his hometown.
Therefore, at this time, he has to pay the money with the Tian family and deliver the goods with one hand.
"You're still afraid that I won't be able to slander you." Tian Er said angrily.
"It's always good to be careful, you know, when things are exposed, my reputation will be ruined, and I will have to take refuge with money." Zeng Yipindao.
"Okay, it's up to you." Anyway, he said haode in advance, and Tian Er didn't have a bad account, so he took out ten silver tickets from his arms, all of which were fifty taels each, a full five hundred taels. Zeng Yipin wanted to take it, Tian Er also learned from Zeng Yipin's previous actions, drew a circle in mid-air, and then counted five sheets and handed them to Zeng Yipin: "Pay you half first, wait until the Mo side has tried it, confirm that it is correct, and then pay the other half." ”
Tian Er is not a completely unscrupulous person, when he arrived in Nanjing, not to mention anything else, he suffered several losses in the hands of Zhenniang, and naturally learned to be obedient, and he was much safer than when he was in Huizhou.
"Okay." Zeng Yipin nodded, took the silver ticket, and then handed the formula to Tian Er.
"Steward Fang, you are here with Master Zeng, and I will take the workers to try this formula." Tian Er took the formula, so he called Steward Fang to come over to accompany Zeng Yipin, and asked Steward Fang to accompany Master Zeng, Yu Qi said to accompany, in fact, it was seizure, in case there was a problem with the Mo side, Zeng Yipin didn't want to take the money and leave.
Zeng Yipin was calm, he had tried this ink recipe several times in private, and the ink produced was exactly the same.
Tian Er ordered his subordinates to serve wine and food, snacks, and then went out with the recipe.
When I got out, I met Tian Ronghua who rushed over.
"Second brother, where are you going?" Tian Ronghua saw that his second brother was in a hurry with a few workers, and he didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly asked.
"Let's try it." Tian Er was not angry, he was still angry with his third sister.
Try the ink side? What ink cube to try? It seemed that I had heard from the guy that Master Zeng was back, could it be related to Master Zeng, Tian Ronghua thought, and chased after him.
"Second brother, what ink square? Where did the ink come from? Tian Ronghua lifted his skirt and asked step by step.
"Master Zeng got it, the Li family's ink recipe." Tian Er said a little proudly, this is his proud work.
At this time, Tian Ronghua didn't know that his second brother was playing all the tricks against Zeng Yipin during this time, but he was a little stunned, and the second brother actually played such a big move quietly.
For the mistake, Tian Ronghua did not praise it, after all, when he was in Huizhou, his father and eldest brother also used such methods, and the people of the Sun family were also driven out of the ink workshop by the Li family.
It's just that when I came to Nanjing, my eldest brother said that Nanjing is a birthplace after all, and it is not easy for Huizhou people to gain a firm foothold in Nanjing, so they have to cooperate with the Li family, and during this time, because of the ink matter, Tian Ronghua has been thinking about finding an opportunity to talk to Li Zhenniang.
The Li family can cooperate with the Zhu family, so Weishenme can't cooperate with her Tian family?
didn't think about it, my second brother did it again quietly, so how can there be room for cooperation with the Li family?
I heard that the third grandfather of the Cheng family also came to Nanjing, if the Li family is allowed to join the Cheng family again, then at that time, Zhu Li and Cheng's three families will be a partner, then even if her Tian family has the name of Gongmo, I am afraid it will be difficult to show her strength.
"Second brother, the eldest brother said it. It's best for us to cooperate with the Li family, Nanjing is not Huizhou, and our family alone will become the target of public criticism. Tian Ronghua said eagerly.
"You don't move, 'what the eldest brother said', you only have the eldest brother in your eyes, how can you still have my second brother, don't you just look down on my mother and me, the second brother? It's a pity that you cast the wrong fetus and didn't put it into the belly of the eldest mother. As soon as Tian Erhua heard Tian Ronghua talk about his eldest brother, the fire went straight out, since he was a child, the eldest brother was better than him in everything, and everything was better than him, and everyone in the family looked down on the big brother, and he was stinky shit in the eyes of the family, and his chest was already full of anger.
After speaking, he didn't pay attention to Tian Ronghua and took people into the ink workshop.
Tian Ronghua's eyes were red, but since the ink formula had been obtained, things had come to this point, and he could only go on hard, hoping that it would be good if he didn't steal the chicken and not lose the rice. Therefore, he also followed Tian Er into the ink workshop.
The second brother doesn't understand the ink-making thing, so she has to watch it.
