Chapter 159: Wait and see

Xinglong's cloth industry is extremely prosperous. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

More than 1,000 pieces of cloth were sold in one day, and later, even the white cloth that had not yet been dyed was sold. It's only a few dollars to dye this cloth yourself, and the key is to save money on this cloth.

Xuejia Cloth Company, on this day, ushered in the worst sales record. Except for half a horse of fine silk and satin, the rest of the wool was not sold. In the evening, when the second master of the Xue family looked at the accounts, he also saw that there was a problem.

"Shopkeeper Liu?"

"Yes, host." Shopkeeper Liu stood tremblingly in the back hall of the cloth shop.

Xue Jin closed the account book and said, "Originally, according to the rules of the Xue family, the owner didn't care about the accounts. However, I just took over the business of the cloth shop from Changfang, and I don't need to ask more questions, look at the accounts, and I am familiar with the business of the Xue family. As the treasurer of the cloth shop, you should be dutiful and assist me. ”

Syllable!

The ledger fell to the ground, and Xue Jin shouted, "But what about you? At the beginning, he swore to follow the long house to the death, and he was willing to admit the lord only when the old man came forward. Now, what do you do? Selling half a piece of cloth in one day, are you making the old man laugh at my incompetence at the end of the year? ”

Seeing Xue Jin's anger, Shopkeeper Liu quickly knelt down and kowtowed, and said: "Boss, it's not me who is doing things, but the other party has opened a cloth shop to steal business, and today's business is so bleak." ”

"Humph! What happened to opening a cloth shop? How long has our Xue family's cloth shop been rooted in Jinling, why can't we sell a piece of cloth as soon as the cloth shop opens? You're a great shopkeeper! Xue Jin was so angry that his chest fell together.

Shopkeeper Liu knelt on the ground, trembled, and said, "The price of the other family has been reduced by half, how can you let me sell it?" The cost of a piece of cloth in our cloth village is almost six dollars of silver, and they sell it for five dollars of silver, which is simply crazy to rob! ”

Xue Jin's pupils widened, and he shouted, "This is impossible!" ”

Shopkeeper Liu, who was kneeling on the ground, beckoned to the back, took the cloth, and said, "Look at the owner, this cloth was bought from the other party by the guy in the store for half a tael of silver." ”

Xue Jin has been mixing in the cloth shop for a few months, and he knows a little about the color of the cloth, he looked at the white cloth and said, "The density and material are fine, how can it be sold so cheaply?" We all need six dollars of silver, how can we sell it so cheaply? Xue Jin asked several times.

Seeing that Xue Jin's anger was suppressed, Shopkeeper Liu hurriedly got up, stood beside Xue Jin, and said, "I've inquired clearly." The owner of the opponent is the son of the gambler of the Bao family. ”

"Baocheng?"

"Yes, that's him!"

Xue Jin narrowed his eyes and muttered: "I only sold the house in Wuyi Lane a few months ago, I thought he was soft, but I didn't expect to be barred here!" ”

"Boss, what should we do? Do you want to tell the old lady? ”

Xue Jin's eyes swept over fiercely, and said, "Do you think I can't control the situation?" ”

Shopkeeper Liu's body trembled, and he quickly lowered his head and bowed, and said, "Don't dare, don't dare, it's just that the other side is obviously prepared this time, and we still have to have a long heart." ”

Xue Jin stroked the wrench on his hand and said slowly: "Let's wait and see first, five coins of silver and a piece of cloth must be a loss-making deal, I want to see how long he can hold out!" Our Xue family's cloth can't be sold even if it doesn't sell a single horse, and it's not a lot of silver! ”

……

……

"Haha, it's been a great day. The two of you didn't see it, the shopkeeper of the Xue family's cloth shop, looked like he had eaten fly feces, not to mention how ugly it was. Our Xinglong cloth shop was almost vacated, and there is no need to shout at this business, these people have started to rob like crazy. ”

Lin Lan took a sip of wine and said, "Half of the price of the cloth is on you, don't you rob it?" ”

Xue Zhen said a little excitedly: "Thank you two for your great help, Xue will go back to Xue's mansion and find out the bottom of the second uncle in front of the eldest father." ”

"Alas, Brother Xue, don't be in a hurry." Lin Lan dissuaded, "It's only now." It is expected that your second uncle is so stubborn and self-serving, and he will not stab this matter on the old lady's side, so if you are a wicked person who sues first, it will inevitably displease the old lady. ”

Xue Zhen frowned and said, "What about Brother Yilin?" ”

"Brother Xue, don't deal with us during this time. If you are seen in detail, you will inevitably lose points in the eyes of the old lady, after all, it is a shameful thing to stumble over your own family when you are an outsider. ”

"Yes, yes, what Brother Lin said is very true."

"During this time, you should try to communicate with your eldest Peter. First, he still has half of the Xue family's business in hand, if you can help take care of it, it will also help you to take charge of the Xue family's business in the future. Second, Ling Zun died early, if there is no elder who can support you, it is indeed a little difficult for you to ascend to the sky in one step, and you want to enter the old man's nose, and when the business of the cloth village is not good, you take over, let's sum it up, and bring you back to life. ”

Xue Zhen's eyes lit up, and he said: "It seems that Brother Lin has a plan in his heart, and after the matter is completed, Xue will definitely repay him." Oh, by the way, Sister Lin has admired Brother Lin's poetry for a long time, these are a few poems made by Sister Lin, and I also ask Brother Lin to give him some pointers one day or two. ”

"Sister Ling is...... Baochai? Lin Lan asked.

Xue Zhen said: "No, no, Baochai is the daughter of my uncle, she went to Beijing to select talents, but she was not selected, and stayed in Jiafu as a guest, and her sister is named Baoqin." ”

Lin Lan nodded, pressed the poem under his hand, and said, "If you have the opportunity, you must ask for a lesson or two." ”

Xue Zhen smiled and said: "My sister, who is not inferior to the uncle's family, also looks like a flower and a moon, and many talented people in Jinling want to pick flowers, but they are rejected by my sister." Brother Lin's talent can win the heart of his sister, but he has to hurry up. It's not too early, so Xue said goodbye. ”

Lin Lan and Bao Cheng got up to see each other off. waited for Xue Zhen to go away before returning to his seat.

Bao Cheng said with a smile: "This Xue Zhen almost said that he wanted to marry his sister to Brother Lan." ”

Lin Lan took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "You know again?" ”

"Not really. This is working with outsiders, how can you feel at ease with your own people. If this matter really develops according to your arrangement in the future, Brother Lan, the supply of this Xue family cloth village will naturally be controlled by you, which is equivalent to pinching Xue Zhen's life, if this is the brother-in-law and brother-in-law, the business is naturally easy to discuss, don't you say? ”

"Huh." Lin Lan glanced outside the house, the heat had not dissipated, the sky was still hot, and if autumn in the south came, it would be overnight.

Bao Cheng said: "It's just Brother Lan, aren't you afraid of raising a white-eyed wolf?" Xue Pan and Xue Gui are not good things. ”

"We have no grievances with the Xue family, although Xue Pan and Xue Gui are disgusting, but Xue Zhen I don't seem to have a bad nature, we can support him to take the position, with the strength of the Xue family in Jinling, he can live better, why not?"

"Heh, I think Brother Lan, you are thinking about other people's sisters, right?"

Lin Lan glanced at the poem on the table, which was a chibi nostalgia, and murmured: "A woman doesn't make boudoir words, but she is also a strange woman." ”
