Zheng Yu was quite helpless about Mai Jia's behavior of not opening which pot to mention, after all, those who didn't know were not guilty, so he could only hurriedly explain.

"Sister, sister! Mai shopkeeper, this is the sister Zheng Ying, who has not yet been married. Then he said to Zheng Ying: "This is the treasurer of the Golden Pavilion, you have to be called Uncle Mai." Although Zheng Yu accepted the strict hierarchy and feudal etiquette of this era, he subconsciously still had the thoughts of modern people, and when he saw the elderly, he had to use honorific titles, not by name. This is a basic quality cultivated in modern society, and it is difficult to change it for a while.

Zheng Ying was slightly disappointed when she heard Zheng Yu's explanation, and said with a thousand blessings without moving: "Zheng Ying has seen Uncle Mai, I wish the business a prosperous and prosperous future." ”

Mai Jiafu also found that the atmosphere just now seemed to be a little embarrassing, and immediately realized that he was not patting the horse's ass well, and slapped the horse's leg. Hurriedly spoke up to cover up.

"Oops, it turned out to be Miss Zhengfu in person, and the old man was really dizzy. I don't dare to take the title of this uncle, the eldest lady just calls me Lao Mai, come and come, please come in, please come in! ”

As he spoke, he let Zheng Yu and the others into the house, and didn't say a word about the slip of the tongue just now, as if nothing had happened.

The group came to the private room on the second floor and sat down. After talking about the polite words that praised each other for a while, the atmosphere was almost set off, Zheng Yu picked up the teacup and took a sip, and said slowly.

"Mr. Mai, in view of the clear accounts and happy cooperation between us in the previous paragraph, we have established enough trust with each other. All I decided to start selling a second product with you. Liu Bao! Go and get a sample of the goods. ”

Liu Bao should have gone out and walked in with a wooden box and placed it on the table in front of Mai Jiayu. In Mai Jia's curious and eagerly expectant gaze, he opened it and took out the silver mirror inside, the same style as the one given to Liufu. Mai Jiafu saw himself with clear pores in the mirror, and he was stupid on the spot, even the guy standing behind him listening to the eyes was dumbfounded.

For professionals such as Mai Jialu, the treasurer of the Golden Pavilion, the mercury mirror, it only exists in rumors, and the real thing has never been seen. At this time, this legendary thing is really in front of you, within reach. Mai Jia's heart turned over, surprised that Zheng Yu actually had such a strange thing, settled his mind, and asked tentatively.

"I don't know Zheng Gongzi, how many sides of this mercury mirror are there now, and at what price are they going to be sold." Mai Jiafu didn't ask Zheng Yu how to supply it at all, because he felt that Zheng Yu should only have a few such silver mirrors in his hand, and it was impossible to supply them for a long time like a glass. As for the source of this silver mirror, it is also in vain to ask, such utensils, even if people tell you, they must be made up blindly and perfunctory, how can a human-like Mai Jia do such a self-deprecating and boring thing.

Zheng Yu smiled after listening to Mai Jia's questioning and said, "Shopkeeper Mai, we are acquaintances, so I'll just say it." Although this item is very rare in the market, it is not a rare thing for me, and I still have some stock in my hand at this time. In order to maintain its scarcity, or according to the old rule of supplying ten sides a month, the price is five thousand taels per side, what do you think? ”

After listening to Zheng Yu's words, Mai Jiayu's hand shook violently, and the teacup he had just picked up in his hand almost fell out. Some stock! Such a rare treasure, there is still some stock! Who is this Zheng Gongzi, I have to inquire carefully if I have the opportunity. If the children of a wealthy family who are hidden in the world have a proper friendship, they will definitely be able to become a powerful help for the proprietor's family, and they will be able to rise with the tide.

Mai Jiafu recovered from the shock, smiled awkwardly at Zheng Yu and the others and said: "Gaffe, gaffe, forgive me" Everyone hurriedly said that it was okay, and Mai Jiafu then said to Zheng Yu: "Zheng Gongzi, according to the old decay, this thing is not in a hurry to be released for the time being." The old man wants to buy the current side at double the price, hand it over to the proprietor of my family, and first present it to the emperor by the proprietor of my family, in exchange for the greatest benefit, and then sell it on the market, I don't know what Zheng Gongzi thinks? This is a temptation, a test of Zheng Yu's attitude towards the court and the royal family. is also making it clear to Zheng Yu that his proprietor is a dignitary of the imperial court, and he will only be loyal to the proprietor. In front of the proprietor, the interests of the royal family should also be on the back burner.

How could Zheng Yu, who had been an old man in two lifetimes, not hear the meaning of these words. But for him, there is no difference between the royal family, the imperial court, including the proprietor behind Mai Jiafu, they all live in their ears, just listen to it. As long as it doesn't affect the wealth plan that you use to build a better life, as for other things, how is love. Since Mai Jiafu even said this kind of obscure words clearly, he can be regarded as not treating himself as an outsider, so he should also express himself.

At this time, Zheng Yu, who was slightly groaning, said: "Shopkeeper Mai, what you said is a bit out of sight, we cooperate so happily, since it is the business of the proprietor of your store, then I, as a supplier, do not have the opportunity to send charcoal in the snow, so the icing on the cake cannot be missed." I'll give you this silver mirror, and I have nothing to do with what you do with him, of course, I also ask the shopkeeper to keep it secret. After all, the rafters rot first. ”

After Zheng Yu finished speaking, he and Mai Jiafu glanced at each other, and suddenly the two laughed, tacitly acknowledging each other. In the future, it will be an alliance of offense and defense, and there is no need to shirk or say anything more. After that, we talked about some details and signed a contract for the sale of silver mirrors. After Zheng Yu tried his best to refuse Mai Jiayu's retention, he left the Zangjin Pavilion and went to Liu Yun's house.

When Liu Bao was discussing business in the Hidden Gold Pavilion, he sent a post, so the concierge of the Liu family had already received Liu Yun's instructions, and he led Zheng Yu and the three of them directly to the study without informing. After seeing the ceremony, Zheng Ying went to find Liu Manwen. Zheng Yu and Liu Yun chatted about the current situation, pulled the family routine, and it didn't take long for dinner time to start.

Liu Feng, the eldest lady of the Liu family, did not come to the dining room to eat under the pretext of being unwell, only Liu Shijie came alone, and said hello to Zheng Yu coldly and stopped talking. After a while, I heard the voices of Su Xiaoman, Liu Manwen, and Zheng Ying talking and laughing outside the dining room. When he entered the dining room and saw Zheng Yu, Liu Manwen, who was still smiling, suddenly became expressionless, and his face changed faster than turning a book. Zheng Yu was speechless for a while, and he was even more bored, he really didn't expect that there were women who did this in ancient times. A capital word popped up in my mind.
