Chapter 199 Tea Party

Therefore, it is not for nothing that the Qiao family controls Jincheng, and even Shu Jin in Shuzhou, the Qiao family's technology is there, and the position is naturally stable.

You don't need to investigate carefully to know that the Shu brocade sold by "Shu Xiulou" over the years is the lowest grade Shu brocade of the Qiao family, and it is also the Shu brocade circulating on the market. It's just that due to the background and strength of the "Shu Embroidery Building", the nobles of the capital like to buy Shu brocade here, which is also equivalent to a symbol of identity and power.

At the end of the year, the people in the second room somehow got into a relationship with the "Shu embroidery building", Qiao Lao Er provided technology to the "Shu embroidery building", brought a special Shu brocade textile worker, and took advantage of the opportunity to make Shu brocade for the internal affairs government, stole the technology of the Qiao family, improved the quality of the "Shu embroidery building" Shu brocade, and let the "Shu embroidery building" firmly occupy the market in the capital.

"Idiot!" The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, Fourth Master Qiao slapped the tea table vigorously, "Second Qiao is a fool, does he know how much impact he has on our Qiao family!" Originally, we could use the mid-range Shu brocade to control the market in the capital, and he made it like this, unless it was a high-end Shu brocade, otherwise, we had no confidence to fight with the people of the 'Shu embroidery building'! , high-end Shu brocade is our trump card, not until the last critical moment, I didn't think about the hole card, that is our guarantee, but also a kind of glory! We are imperial merchants, and when we take out our things, how many people compete for them, so that our identity can be revealed. At the critical moment, it can also become a tool for our strategy, if we directly show the hole cards as soon as we match the 'Shu embroidery building', what is the value of Shu brocade! Scarcity is expensive, if we are in order to grab customers with the 'Shu embroidery building', put out the high-end Shu brocade, and become a bargain on the bad street, what else do we fight? Idiot! ā€

Obviously, it can be solved with mid-range Shu brocade, but later it is necessary to use high-end Shu brocade to win the "Shu embroidery building", but their losses are also large, and it is a waste of time!

"Idiot! Idiot! Fourth Master Qiao roared angrily.

Qiao Yi didn't dare to say anything, and stood aside in a disciplined manner.

The anger calmed down a little, and Qiao Siye said: "We have to plan this matter well, and if we don't let the people in the second room take off their skin, I won't call Qiao Xingye!" ā€

The bold words were released, and Fourth Master Qiao began to get down to business.

"There will be a party in a few days, a gathering between several imperial merchants, and you and San'er will follow me at that time."

"What about Jojo?"

"What's the matter with her?" In the face of interests, Qiao Siye will not share it with others.

"Father, Qiao's family is still the head of the long house, and this time Qiao Qiao also came, if we leave her to go out to gather and be known, I'm afraid it's not good."

"Trouble!" Qiao Siye said irritably, but he still listened to Qiao Yi's words.

The party that Qiao Siye said was actually a private gathering of several imperial businessmen.

Businessmen pay the most attention to connections, these new imperial businessmen, as newcomers are more to hold together, most of them are not from the capital, as outsiders must have their own team, of course, there is the most important point, although we are in different industries, but the business has no boundaries, make more friends, multiple development directions.

This kind of official statement was told to Qiao Lixi by Qiao Siye, and Qiao Lixi scoffed.

followed Qiao Siye to the teahouse, and Qiao Yixi was immediately happy.

Tea ceremony.

Zhong Chenglin's teahouse.

Sure enough, it is the property of a wealthy family, I don't know when the Qiao family will reach the level of the Zhong family.

She was very curious about the Zhong family where Zhong Chenglin was.

The Zhong family is low-key, this is well known, even if it is the own family in the capital, such a powerful maritime businessman, the Zhong family does not point fingers in the circle, on the contrary, many times as a foil. Not only is the Zhong family's home in the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, but also the partial branch where Zhong Chenglin is located, and the same is true in the Jincheng Chamber of Commerce.

If the people of the Qiao family were to be so domineering as the Zhong family, it was estimated that they would all go out sideways.

This tea ceremony is Zhong Chenglin's partial branch of the industry, but also their only industry in the capital, decades of heritage, "tea ceremony" tea, is the emperor's favorite, every year will pay tribute, the number is not much, very precious.

Qiao Siye took Qiao Yixi and the others to greet him, and after making an introduction, they separated.

Qiao Lixi followed Qiao Jinwen to a group of girls.

That's the benefit of a businessman.

There are not so many rules for businessmen to socialize, not only the female relatives will go into battle, but even the children will also socialize. The businessman encouraged the children to do this, which was also an experience and a means.

It's just that when the girls are ready to see their husbands' families, they will be a little more restrained and don't go out easily. Of course, if it is different from the pursuit of high, such as marrying into a wealthy family or something, then there will be more rules.

"Sister Qiaoqiao." A familiar voice made Qiao Yixi look up in surprise.

"Miss Sun?"

Qiao Lixi thought about it carefully, but still didn't remember what the Sun family did.

"I didn't expect to meet Sister Qiaoqiao here, it's so unexpected." Sun Xian has an eight-sided exquisite appearance, and she is very handy in the crowd.

"Yes, it's really exciting to meet someone in a foreign country." Qiao Lixi is even more able to open her eyes and tell nonsense.

Sun Xian sat beside Qiao Lixi familiarly, "Sister Qiao Qiao, where do you live in the capital?" Ming'er, let's go around together, I've been in the capital for so long, and I haven't taken a good turn, and I don't know the place well, and my father doesn't worry about letting me go out. It's good to see Sister Qiaoqiao, and with you, my father is also relieved. ā€

"I don't have time," in Sun Xian's stunned, Qiao Lixi said in a daze, "You also know that I have something important to do this time, and as the next head of the Qiao family, I don't have extra time to do messy things." ā€

I'm a serious person and have serious things to do.

Qiao Yixi looked at Sun Xian with a smile.

Sun Xian was embarrassed for a moment, saw that the people around her looked over, wrung the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, and said aggrievedly: "Sister Qiaoqiao, I know that you have a prejudice against me, I have known Brother Yuanbao for a long time, and the two families are world friends, so in the eyes of others, our relationship is better." But I really didn't want to rob anything with you, Brother Yuanbao is in my heart, and he has always been just a brother. Besides, Sister Qiao Qiao, you also said before, you are the future leader of the Qiao family, your status is noble, Brother Yuanbao must choose you, you ...... Don't be so wary of me, I—I just want to be friends with you. ā€

"Xianxian, you treat others as friends, and you don't necessarily treat others sincerely. In these days, there are people of all kinds of goods. The hillbilly has never seen the world, he can't see his identity clearly, and he thinks that he is flattered in the countryside and is about to go to heaven, but he doesn't know that there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people! ā€

helped, Qiao Yixi didn't know.

"Teachable, Xianxian, you have to remember the teachings of this eldest sister, we are all from the countryside, we must understand the rules and know our identity in every word and deed, so as not to collide...... A noble person like the eldest sister! ā€

"You ......" The woman raised her eyebrows and glared at Qiao Yixi, but she couldn't say the harsh words.

Sun Xian and Qiao Lixi are from the same place, she said that Qiao Lixi is a hillbilly, isn't it indirectly mocking Sun Xian that she is also a hillbilly?

Seeing Lu Ting's ugly face, Sun Xian hurriedly relieved: "Sister Ting, don't be angry, Xian Xian knows that you are defending me, and I don't care, really." Don't target Sister Qiaoqiao, Sister Qiaoqiao doesn't have a heart, she ...... I just don't like that I'm too close to Brother Yuanbao. ā€

Sun Xian lowered her head, looking lonely.

"Xianxian, I'll just say that you are kind and bullied. Although I don't know what ingots are, but since you said it, your two families are world friends, and you and Yuanbao are brother and sister, what's wrong with the good relationship? Who is in the way of the relationship? Those who are immeasurable, can't see their identities clearly, and always want to soar into the sky, there is no need to give her a good face. ā€

Sun Xian glanced around helplessly.

Although the movement of the three of them was not big, because the atmosphere was not good, someone had already paid attention to them, and Lu Ting did not deliberately hide her actions, so almost everyone heard what she was saying.

became the focus of attention, Lu Ting was even more proud, and trampled Qiao Lixi under her feet wantonly, showing her high style and bright festival.

Qiao Jinwen picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip of it warmly.

The people around her looked at her in surprise, and then they also understood, reached out, picked up a piece of snack, and ate it slowly.

Qiao Jinwen's indifference is just the reason for the infighting in the Qiao family.

Qiao Lixi herself behaved inappropriately, and she was jealous because of men outside, what happened to Qiao Jinwen?

Losing is also losing the face of the long house, it has nothing to do with the fourth room, it is Qiao Yixi's own character problem.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of Qiao Jinwen's mouth.

The burning eyes around him poked at Qiao Yixi, and they laughed mockingly.

Qiao Yixi sat lazily in her seat, staring at Sun Xian for a moment.

Being stared at like this uncomfortable, Sun Xian turned her body sideways with a weak heart.

It's just that her action, in the eyes of outsiders, is because she is afraid of Qiao Lixi's obscenity, and she timidly avoids it.

Although Lu Ting was the only one who helped Sun Xian come out, she already had a preconceived preconception about Qiao Lixi in the fight.

Everyone is from a businessman's background, and intrigue is at their fingertips, and they have no scruples, and they will not shrink back because of their identity.

Anyway, everyone is just taking a picture today, and I don't know if there will be a chance to contact it in the future, so why be so cautious?

Besides, the Qiao family?

What is the Qiao family, I haven't heard of it, I don't know it!

"Miss Lu is right, the kind of person who can't see her identity clearly and sow discord, there is no need to give her a good face." Qiao Lixi's sudden opening made Sun Xian suddenly feel that the situation was not good.

It's just that before she had time to think about it, Qiao Lixi continued: "The brother Yuanbao that Miss Sun said is next door, or I'll invite him?" ā€

"No need!" Sun Xian stood up suddenly, moving too fast, knocking down the teacup in her hand.

Glancing around with an embarrassed face, Sun Xian explained: "There are all female dependents here, I'm afraid it's inconvenient." ā€

"What's inconvenient?" Qiao Lixi asked rhetorically, "Everyone gathers today just to connect with each other, and it is lively when there are many people." ā€
