Chapter 77: The Li Family?
In the past few days, there are many people who come to ask for Qiao's porcelain.
At this time, Qiao Eighteen no longer did any promotions, and the porcelain business of the Qiao family was booming.
On this day, Duke Qiao and his wife sat in the hall with Qiao Eighteen and Three.
Qiao Eighteen is probably the only family member in Qiao's Mansion who can be on an equal footing with Duke Qiao and his wife.
Mrs. Qiao first said: "Mr. Qiao, your nursery rhyme has made a lot of contributions to the sale of our porcelain!" ”
Qiao Gong also affirmed: "Yes, the shipments in the past few days alone can be described as amazing, and the profits are guaranteed!" ”
"Master, madam, we have to expand again in the future, and recruit more family members to come back."
Qiao Eighteen took the opportunity to say that this was his first plan.
Qiao Gong was overjoyed and said, "Of course, these family members will be handed over to you for training." ”
"Don't worry, master, I will definitely train them well."
In this way, you can recruit three or five hundred people to come back first, and then talk about it, before that, you have to make the Qiao family bigger, at least to compete with the Wang family and the Yang family, and now, they are indeed a little behind. But it won't be long before they will be side by side.
"My wife and I are very relieved that you are doing things, after all, this time it is thanks to you. After my discussion with my wife, I decided to promote you to the head of Qiao's mansion, and you are the biggest in the entire Qiao's mansion except for me and my wife. ”
"Thank you, sir, madame!"
He seemed to remember something.
"What about the eldest lady and the second miss?"
"In the future, you can call them by their names, after all, you are no longer a family member now. Your identity is still above them, and I will mention it to them when the time comes. ”
Qiao Eighteen knew that the big Qiao was called Qiao Ying, and the little Qiao was called Qiao Wan, and the names of the two were very good, just like people.
Speaking of the two of them, after his training in the past few days, there has been a small success in the music, of course, there must be something like eating some tofu, he can't help it, who let his index finger affect it? If it was before, he might have had lust but no lust, but now it is different, and he can do it in a grand manner, as long as he doesn't go too far.
Mrs. Qiao said: "Yes, I see that you are about the same age, so let Ying'er and Wan'er call you brother in the future!" ”
Of course that's good, Qiao Eighteen can't help it! Brother and sister are commensurate, how kind that must be.
Joe ...... Mr! ”
Qiao Gong was originally going to be called Qiao Eighteen, but later changed his name to Mr. Qiao, after all, if he gives people a status, he should be respected accordingly.
"Master, I'm here!"
"How old are you?"
"Sixteen."
"Sixteen? I heard my wife say that your ancestor's surname is Qiao, and you are also a wang family. ”
That Mrs. Qiao really talked to Gong Qiao, otherwise, it would be impossible for him not to be suspected.
"Yes, sir!"
"Ying'er and Wan'er are also fourteen years old, right?"
"Yes, sir, didn't you just ask yesterday?"
When Qiao Gong said this, Qiao Eighteen could already guess what he meant.
He thought to himself, it must be Qiao Gong who wants to marry his daughter, otherwise he will definitely not ask about this age, his status has improved, and he can get big and small Qiao, of course, it is best for big and small Qiao to marry together. That's really a beautiful two, enjoy the blessings of the world! You must know that it is very normal to have three wives and four concubines in ancient times, depending on how he marries two daughters. Of course, if it is him to marry, it may be a little difficult, and if the two want to marry at the same time, it is another matter.
"Look at my head, the so-called ...... this woman should be married"
"Sir...... Ying'er and Wan'er are still young! ”
Mrs. Qiao deliberately hindered it, which made Qiao Eighteen unable to figure out what this mature woman's thoughts were.
"Madame, don't say more! They're about the same age. ”
Gong Qiao glared at Mrs. Qiao.
Mrs. Jo said no more.
But when Qiao Gong wanted to continue.
Steward Yang walked in.
"Sir, Madam, Mr. Qiao! Oh no, someone from the Li family is here! ”
When Qiao Gong heard this, he immediately stood up.
"People from the Li family, what do you want to do?"
He has been suppressed by the people of the Li family for a long time, and these guys still dare to come, they really don't want to live.
Let them out, Lao Tzu doesn't want to see them. My husband is very angry, this master of the Li family used to hurt himself so badly, and now he still has the face to come to see him? It's good not to eat a closed door. He didn't let people go out and beat them to death. But after all, it is a county seat, and you can't go too far.
"I don't see him! Let him go! ”
Qiao Gong said very resolutely, and there was no room for negotiation at all.
But Qiao Eighteen said: "Master, it's better to give them a chance, give them a chance, that is, give us a chance!" ”
Qiao Gong didn't know what Qiao Eighteen meant by this, but Qiao Eighteen said very obviously: "Master, this surnamed Li must be here to sell his goods, he has a request for us, we will crush them with a high profile, and at the same time suppress the price to the lowest." ”
Mrs. Qiao said: "But the Li family is constantly unlucky, and I have heard that a large number of crows have been entrenched in their house for many days, and they still have no intention of retreating. Isn't it self-defeating to work with such people? ”
When Qiao Eighteen heard this, he forgot that their crows were hovering over the Li Mansion from day to night, and they forgot to take them back.
Of course, there are also a large number of animals gathered at the door of all the stores in the Li Mansion, so that they can't do business.
"Receiving this kind of person is very disadvantageous for our Qiao family, I agree with the master's meaning, don't see this person."
The ancients believed in these things like luck, but if they knew that all this was done by Qiao Eighteen, they might not think so.
"Yes, Mr. Qiao, this person can't be seen."
Qiao Gong's attitude was very resolute.
"The so-called life is a good time to stay a line, and we will see each other in the future. 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, no one can guarantee who will be better and who will be worse tomorrow, if we block the road, in case people and dogs jump over the wall in a hurry, they will make trouble for us. What about that trip? ”
Qiao 18 tried to make the matter as serious as possible, which made the two of them a little frightened. After all, the Li family once suppressed them by unscrupulous means. Now though they are in distress, the emaciated camels are bigger than the horses. They must still have some strength.
So Qiao Gong relented: "Okay, then I'll see what he has to say." Let him in! ”
Steward Yang subconsciously glanced at Qiao Eighteen. I must be admiring his clever tongue. Just a few words made Qiao Gong and Mrs. Qiao change their opinions, such a capable person, I'm afraid that there is no one in the entire ancient world,
So Steward Yang went out and summoned Master Li of the Li Mansion to come in.
