Su Chen was silent for a moment, and asked tentatively: "The five families are jointly suppressed, will the situation be very serious?" ”

Bai Susu said with a solemn expression: "Not optimistic, Runzhou City is the second largest city in the Tang Kingdom, and it is adjacent to the Jinling Ferry, and the river and the sea are boarded from here, so the population in Runzhou City is large, there are many merchants, and the status of the Jiangzuo Chamber of Commerce is becoming more and more important." Merchants and squires of all sizes gather together, and there is an annual meeting of the business alliance every year, according to the size and financial resources of the family, some shares and resources are allocated, and there are agreements on the scale of doing business. ”

"If the five major families suppress the Bai family at the same time, those second- and third-rate families who are attached to them will follow suit and cut off their business with the Bai family. At that time, the Bai family shops will face huge pressure, out of stock and crowding, not only porcelain, but also wine, raw meat, vegetables, seafood, sweet and sour salt tea, silk cloth, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., may be affected, some orders will be called back, in the face of the danger of insufficient capital turnover, it is difficult to scream. ”

Su Chen knew in his heart that this was just like the business war and stock war of the two hostile group companies in the future, if you don't make a move, it will be a thunderbolt, and you hope to bring down the other party, the stock will collapse, and you will be defeated, and you will completely announce the closure of the door.

"Which of the nine families does the Bai family have a close relationship with, do they have allies?"

Bai Susu pondered for a moment and replied: "Among the nine major families, the Bai family has the best relationship with the Lu family, and Lu Tiannan, the current head of the Lu family, had a good relationship with my father back then. ”

Su Chen was puzzled: "What kind of business does the Lu family have?" ”

Bai Susu glanced at Su Chen in surprise, thinking to himself that the people of Runzhou City, are there still people who don't know what the nine major families are doing?

"Don't you really know about the Lu family's business?" Bai Susu was a little skeptical.

Su Chen said embarrassedly: "I just want you to explain it to me in detail again, it's more reliable than the news I heard in the market!" Alas, I said that you, the eldest lady, should not speak so straightforwardly, and should have some fun. ”

"......" Bai Susu had another urge to beat people in his heart.

Fortunately, Miss Bai's self-cultivation is good enough, so she took a deep breath and stopped continuing to entangle this topic with him.

Bai Susu said: "The Lu family is in the tea business, and they claim that their ancestors are the descendants of Lu Yu, the tea saint of the Tang Dynasty, which needs to be authentic by genealogy. Many tea gardens and tea forests outside Runzhou City have been contracted by the Lu family to plant various tea trees, etc., there are many types of tea, and the quality is also very good. ”

Su Chen nodded, understanding the Lu family's business, which is a giant who produces and sells tea. In the Silk Road or maritime trade in the Tang and Song dynasties, the Central Plains mainly exported ceramics, tea, gold and silverware, etc., so don't underestimate tea, it is also an absolute businessman who can become bigger and stronger.

"At a critical time, can the Lu family give firm support to the Bai family, such as borrowing money to supplement the Bai family's capital chain, or standing beside the Bai family to fight side by side?" Su Chen asked, wanting to distinguish the relationship between friend and foe.

Bai Susu pondered, sighed and said: "Businessmen are profit-seeking, righteousness is not the most important, if the Bai family does not have the hole cards that can turn losses into profits and turn defeat into victory, the Lu family will not firmly support the Bai family, at most privately lend hundreds of thousands of dollars for emergency, provide some goods and materials, and deal with short-term needs, in the long run, we still have to rely on ourselves." ”

Su Chen said: "When you persuade those Bai family elders, don't you already have a plan?" With soap and soap, how can there be high-purity wine to paint cakes, which has won people's hearts, and can also convince the Lu family! ”

Bai Susu shook his head and said: "Lu Tiannan is old, he will not believe these words, even if we have soap in hand, but in terms of porcelain, the main industry of the Bai family, after all, it has been hit hard, just with soap and soap, it can only be calculated as a miracle, but it cannot completely turn the crisis of the Bai family into a disaster and break the abacus of the Ding family." ”

"And that high-purity wine, from a series of processes such as fermentation and brewing, takes a year, unless you use your simple method, by buying liquor to distill, and steam it out as quickly as possible. However, the purchase of a large number of drinks will arouse the vigilance of the Fan family and the Du family, and block the provision of wine to us; Second, the cost is also large, and our profit is not high. Only by brewing it yourself and grasping the source can you reduce the cost. ”

This Bai Susu is still very business-minded, and many details, cost control, and hidden dangers are clearly considered.

"Main porcelain?" Su Chen was stunned suddenly, and then remembered that he had stayed up all night last night and refined the blue and white porcelain.

But today's toss has forgotten all about it, and I remember it at this time.

Su Chen reached out and touched the bag hanging from his waist, and took out the small porcelain bottle the size of a palm, although it looked a little ugly, but the color of the porcelain enamel was different, handed it to Bai Susu and said, "Look at this!" ”

"What is this?"

"Just look at it, how's it?" Su Chen asked happily.

"Shape, it's a little ugly! The lines are not good, there are more flaws, and there are micro cracks, where did you pick up the defective product? "Leukin is more objectively analyzed.

Su Chen's smile froze, and he glared at Bai Susu with an unkind gaze.

"What's wrong?" Bai Susu looked at him frowning and angry, a little inexplicable.

Su Chen said bitterly: "It is said that men only like to look at appearance, not connotation, and women are the same!" ”

Bai Susu was confused when he heard this, and asked, "Su Chen, are you okay?" ”

Su Chen said angrily: "You take a good look at the glaze!" ”

After Bai Susu heard this, with a little curiosity, he carefully observed the glaze of the porcelain vase, and in an instant, his face was shocked, his lips opened slightly, and his eyes were a little straight.

That's what you want!

Su Chen's face showed a smug smile at this time, and he pouted: "The glaze of this porcelain vase is developed by me in the Bai family's porcelain manor, busy for seven days and seven nights, forgetting to sleep and eating, wearing stars and wearing the moon, and painstakingly working hard, I call it Qingbai porcelain!" Although the appearance is not beautiful enough, it is because my technique is not skilled enough, and there are still deficiencies in subtle skills, but the glaze color of this blue and white porcelain is very authentic and authentic, and it is a new glazed porcelain. ”

"Blue and white porcelain!" Bai Susu showed a little surprise in his eyes, and muttered to himself, already understanding its meaning.

This is a kind of porcelain between celadon and white porcelain, the glaze color is slightly flashing cyan in the white, there is white in the green, there is green in the white, transparent as water, the carcass is light, like the jade color, not as dark and cold as the celadon, nor as white and monotonous as the white porcelain, the glaze color of this green and white porcelain is very in line with the requirements of the scholar class "gentleman is humble, warm and moist like jade".

"Is this your new porcelain?" Bai Susu almost exclaimed, how indifferent, elegant, calm, cold, and elegant she was in the past...... At this time, he also lost his normal heart, broke the image of the goddess of coldness, and became more real.

"Yes, it's this surprise, it's this shout, it's a real feeling, three more times!" Su Chen smiled, hoping to guide the eldest lady of the Bai family to be flesh and blood, not as cold and calm as before.

"Don't follow me, tell me quickly, it's not your latest fire!" At this time, Bai Susu suddenly slapped the table, as if Peng Jingqing was possessed, and became both violent and domineering!

Su Chen was a little dumbfounded, he was planning to train Bai Susu to be flesh-and-blood, more natural and straightforward, instead of another Peng Jingqing's violent girl!
