Chapter 51: Miss Tang's Means (First Update, Ask for Recommendation, Ask for Collection)
"One, two......"
As soon as the day dawned, Tang Wei came to the gate of the Tuanjie Soap Factory as usual, and set up a breakfast stall there, not so much to set up a sale, but to facilitate the inspection of the entry and exit of the factory.
Who are the people, what cars, how many people, how many cars......
Probably all of them are like this, after staying in the Tang family for so many years, Tang Wei's best thing is to listen to all kinds of news. Even a glance at it shows whether the carriage is empty or full.
"That's a lot of oil trucks this time!"
Tang Wei muttered like this, looking at the oil drum on the carriage, he wondered in his heart.
"Why are all these oil drums sealed?"
After staying in front of the factory for so long, Tang Wei naturally knew that the oil drum was divided into two kinds, one was a fully sealed oil drum, with only a round hole at the top to enter and exit the oil, this kind of barrel was tightly sealed, but it could only transport liquid oil. The other is similar to a large bucket, but with a lid, and this oil is reserved for solid oils such as butter, because butter solidifies all year round and turns into lumps when it's cold.
"Looks like they don't need butter!"
Then the news came from outside, Tang Ziqi said casually,
"Don't use butter anymore?"
Tang Runze was surprised.
"What could be cheaper than butter?"
There is indeed no oil cheaper than butter, doubting in his heart, thinking of what he had heard before, Tang Ziqi smiled bitterly.
"I have a good plan He has a wall ladder, this time we only stared at the Song family, but forgot Shi Yiwen, since he can make soap, then he must keep his back hand, didn't he buy an oil mill earlier, at the time, it was just a joke, but now look at it, it is estimated that the oil is transported from the oil mill!"
That afternoon, Tang Ziqi's guess was not only confirmed, but even a small handful of cotton husks appeared in her hand.
"So, cotton seed oil is now coming out of his oil mill?"
Holding the broken cotton husk, Tang Ziqi asked.
"Miss, this is the news that Tang Dong personally inquired about, he is the person brought out by the master, and it must not be fake. Moreover, in the past two days, a lot of cotton husks have also been shipped out of the factory. Although Xiao Lao'er doesn't know how to squeeze oil, he also knows that only in this layer of cotton can be peeled off, and a lot of oil can be squeezed, and the cotton itself is a worthless, and the cotton oil they use now is cheaper than butter. ”
Cotton is indeed a worthless, and the oil squeezed out is naturally cheaper. This time it was a miscalculation.
The soldier said, "There are no strange soldiers in the three armies, and they cannot compete with others for profit. "Historical Records: The Biography of the Colony of Goods" also says, "The right way to govern life is also, and the rich must use miracles to win." This is what my father often said, and he won the army by tricks and made a living. He can make soap is a skill, and he can peel off the hard shell of cotton, but if he has a skill, why can't he get rich......"
After pondering for a moment, Tang Ziqi instructed the housekeeper.
"Uncle Ze, you go and arrange it, I'll meet him and talk about it...... Avoid the people of the Song family. ”
As soon as the day dawned, Shi Yiwen ran out of the house and ran along the Qinhuai River, as usual, after running for almost ten miles, when he was about to turn back, there was a maid ring blocking the road to say a blessing to him.
"Childe, my young lady asks you to come over and do it for a while."
Looking at the sweaty boy in front of her, who was dressed like a coolie, Apple almost didn't recognize him, wasn't he the boy by the river who was kind enough to give her watermelons and other fruits?
Belch?
Looking at the little girl ring that came out of nowhere, Shi Yiwen looked in the direction of her finger and saw a woman wrapped in a pleated skirt wrapped in lake blue standing in the riverside pavilion, she was standing there with her back to herself.
This man is very "elegant".
Seeing Shi Yiwen sweating profusely walking towards this side, Tang Ziqi thought in his heart and also greeted him.
When looking at the woman from the pavilion walking elegantly, Shi Yiwen was stunned, her steps were not big, she was not in a hurry, and her figure was not like the petite and thin of Jiangnan women in people's mouths, but tall and graceful and plump and well-proportioned.
Even if you are from the 21st century and are used to seeing too many beautiful women, but when you see that tall and plump and well-proportioned figure, you still can't help but sigh in your heart, this body is really good, especially this height, it has to be 1.7 meters!
sighed at the beauty of the woman's figure, but Shi Yiwen secretly screamed pity in his heart.
The woman unsurprisingly wore a hood, and there was a layer of veil under the hood, which was neither thick nor thin, so that it was impossible to see the appearance behind the veil at all, at most she could see a face...... Shadow.
It's a Monarisa again!
And unlike the hazy and beautiful tulle of the woman on the street, the layer of veil that is not thin or thick blocks her appearance cleanly, she can only see the veil, and she can't see people at all, looking at the white veil under the hat, Shi Yiwen can't help but look forward to unveiling that scene.
"I'm really sorry to disturb my son."
When the delicate Wu Nong's soft words reached his ears, Shi Yiwen couldn't help but be stunned.
The voice seemed familiar, like it had been heard there.
"I can't talk about bothering, but I don't know if the young lady is calling down, but what's the matter?"
Shi Yiwen, who had returned to normal, looked at the woman in front of him.
Looking at Shi Yiwen's gaze, he looked at him so directly, Tang Ziqi frowned slightly, and felt a little unhappy in his heart.
"Oh? But there are just some things I want to discuss with Childe, but Childe is so young that he can not only make soap, but also use worthless cotton seeds to squeeze oil, which is really surprising. ”
Belch!
This woman is prepared!
Shi Yiwen's heart immediately became vigilant. Who is she, though? Almost subconsciously, a woman mentioned by Song Qiyu came to mind.
"Miss Tang?"
"It's the little woman."
She sat lightly in the pavilion as she spoke.
"Shi Gongzi, don't misunderstand, the little woman invited Gongzi to come over because she has something to discuss with Gongzi."
"Discuss?"
With a slight gaze, Shi Yiwen sneered.
"I don't know what Miss Tang wants to discuss with me?"
"Childe seems to be dissatisfied with the little girl!"
"Don't dare!"
Shi Yiwen said coldly, although he had never contacted Miss Tang, reason told him that he should be cautious when dealing with this woman.
Cautious is cautious, but it does not prevent Shi Yiwen from appreciating her with the eyes of a woman, although she is wearing a loose dress, you can still see her slender and plump figure.
"Actually, the reason why I invited Childe over this time is because if you and I fight over soap, we will definitely lose both, so the little girl wants to discuss a way with Childe to solve your current problem, I don't know what Childe thinks?"
"Oh? I don't know what Miss Tang plans to do! ”
Shi Yiwen asked with a smile.
"Shi Gongzi, now Daming can make soap, only you and me, Daming is so big, the business must be incomplete, rather than you and I fighting for a fish to the net, it is better to cooperate with each other,"
Although she is a woman, Tang Ziqi speaks and behaves casually, and she does not imagine the shyness and timidity of her youngest daughter's family at all, obviously she has been practicing for a long time.
"Business is business. There's no need to fight to the death, you say? Shi Gongzi. ”
Tang Ziqi's suggestion made Shi Yiwen a little puzzled, what did she mean by this?
"It seems that you want to fight for a fish to die and break the net, it's Miss Tang."
Shi Yiwen's words made Tang Ziqi say with a smile.
"Could it be that you still hate me, in fact, it's just business, if I don't do that, how can I have the opportunity to sit here and chat with Su Gongzi?"
Belch...... I heard Tang Ziqi say it again when I was puzzled.
"I have a suggestion, since both of us are now engaged in the soap business, then with the Huai River and the Yellow River as the boundary, the soap business in the south is all dominated by Gongzi, and our Tang family will definitely not touch the slightest, but in the business in the north, please raise your noble hand."
As he spoke, Tang Ziqi reached out and took a few pieces of paper from Xiaoping.
"This is my butter contract with those oil mills, and it should be to make amends to Childe, I don't know what Childe thinks!"
What the!
Looking at Tang Ziqi well, Shi Yiwen didn't expect the other party to make such a concession.
"You're going to give up your business in the South?"
"That's right."
"Miss Tang, you have spent so much effort to quit, this is too unbelievable."
Shi Yiwen looked at the woman in front of him who couldn't see clearly. What exactly does she mean?
"I can't help it! Miraculous skills win over soldiers and make a living. Who made Shi Gongzi talented, if I didn't take the initiative to withdraw, it is estimated that in the end, I am afraid that it will not be a defeat for both sides, but a big loss of vitality. The little girl is just a person who keeps the job, and she will never risk her family business, so after thinking about it, she still asked her son to meet and talk. It's always going to be regretted in the future. ”
Tang Ziqi's compliment made Shi Yiwen extremely useful.
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, since Miss's words have come to this point, if I don't agree again, then wouldn't I not know what to do, okay, this matter is settled."
Hearing this, Tang Ziqi looked at Shi Yiwen with some doubts.
"Childe, don't you need to discuss this matter with Song Jia?"
"Discuss?"
Shi Yiwen asked rhetorically.
"Where does this need to be discussed? It's just business, I'm in charge. ”
In his opinion, this matter is not harmful to himself, after all, transporting soap to the north for sale is itself a matter that outweighs the cost, and the distance is too far and the freight is too high.
It is of course a good thing that the other party took the initiative to withdraw from the southern market. This factory was originally its own factory, and there was no need to discuss it with others. There's no need for that at all.
"Childe is ......"
In addition to being surprised, Tang Ziqi, who was secretly happy, immediately changed his words and was grateful.
"Childe Gaoyi! The little woman thanked the son for raising his noble hand. ”
