"Brother Qin, this time the mouth is suddenly open, right?" Qin Baichuan looked suddenly enlightened, Du Bo was also happy for him, and said with a smile: "The imperial court does not adopt Old Man Chu's suggestion, and we errand boys can only use some means secretly." Among the three thousand war knives, five hundred catties of iron can be drawn, and if Brother Qin doesn't want it, it will be secretly taken out and sold by those of us who are in charge......"

"Brother Du, how much is the iron of Da Song worth?" Qin Baichuan immediately moved his mind to discuss with Old Man Chu, and it was already past noon, Du Bo had to go back to the yamen to listen to the dispatch, and Qin Baichuan was ready to talk about business.

"The price of iron in Dasong has always been not low, and in general, a pound of iron costs half a tael of silver." Du Bo kindly reminded: "Brother Qin, I see that the Bliss Army has recently shown signs of expansion, if it is convenient, you may wish to purchase a large amount of iron, otherwise when the imperial court decree comes down, the price of iron will definitely increase a lot, and I am afraid that a lot of silver will be wasted in vain." ”

"That five hundred catties of iron is two hundred and fifty taels of silver?" Qin Baichuan took out a silver ticket from his arms and gently put it on the table: "Then these five hundred catties of iron brother want it, and Brother Du will accept these silver." ”

"Brother Qin, are you trying to slap me in the face?" Du Bo was displeased, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Du Bo is indeed on an errand in the government, and two hundred and fifty taels of silver is not a small amount, but Du Mou helped his brother a little, but he wants to collect your silver...... Brother Qin, who do you think Du is? ”

"Brother Du, I didn't mean that......"

"It doesn't matter what you mean, if you recognize me as a friend, put away the money, we are still friends, and I will secretly send five hundred catties of iron to the Bliss Army; If you have to give, we don't have to do it. Du Bo slammed the teacup on the table: "Little Er, settle the bill!" ”

"Brother Du, do you dare to listen to me?" Du Bo was indeed a little angry, Qin Baichuan held the silver ticket in his arms, and said with a wry smile: "This silver is not given to you by me, but ...... Transporting 500 catties of iron out always has to be up and down, I'm afraid of ......"

"Don't be afraid of anything, since this matter is handed over to Du, I will be sure that the iron will be transported out without knowing it, you just need to order someone to wait in the Bliss Sect." Du Bo's anger did not subside.

"Okay, okay, this matter is something I didn't think about carefully, and I'm here to make amends to Brother Du." Qin Baichuan couldn't either, and after raising the wine bowl and drinking three bowls in a row, he lowered the mouth of the bowl: "This time, the eldest brother is satisfied, right?" ”

"That's pretty much it." Du Bo was originally seven points angry and three points to act, Qin Baichuan had already made amends, even if he turned his anger into joy, after the shopkeeper came over, Du Bo took out the silver from his body and settled the account, stood up and said: "Brother Qin, there is still something in the government, Du Mou will leave." If my brother is still thinking about Du, when the yamen is done, he will return home with me, and let's have a good drink? ”

"But if there is time, Qin will definitely come to visit." Qin Baichuan got up and stood opposite Du Bo and said with a smile: "As Brother Du said, there is indeed a small matter that Qin Mou invited this time and wanted to ask you for help, but it was not because of the Bliss Army. ”

"Oh?" Du Bo looked at Qin Baichuan suspiciously.

"Let's put it this way, someone owes me money and doesn't pay it back, and I want Brother Du to use the name of headhunter to help ask for it. No matter what method is used, as long as it does not cause death. Qin Baichuan took out an IOU from his arms.

"Debt collection?" Du Bo smiled: "How many taels of silver, do you need my brother to use my identity as a head catcher?" Could it be tens of thousands of taels? ”

"A little more." Qin Baichuan unfolded the IOU and handed it to Du Bo.

"One hundred thousand taels? Oh, my God! Seeing the numbers on the IOU clearly, Rao Du Bo was already prepared, or exclaimed: "Brother...... This...... This fourth child of the Qu family, how could he owe you so much silver! ”

"A muddled account." Qin Baichuan didn't explain too much, and said, "Brother Du, do you see if you can get this silver out?" ”

"No matter why you owe it, this IOU is ironclad evidence, how can there be any reason not to come back?" Du Bo took the IOU in his hand and patted his chest.

"That's good...... Well, if you want to come to the Qu family, the fourth child won't be able to take out 100,000 taels for a while, anyway, the eldest brother can come back as much as he wants, and I will share it equally with the eldest brother when the time comes. Qin Baichuan said very generously.

"Here we go again." Du Bo glanced at Qin Baichuan angrily, and snorted: "One hundred thousand taels of silver, even if Du Mou fights hard, he may not be able to earn it in three lives and three lives, but if you use the silver to talk about things again, Du Mou really no longer recognizes you as a brother." ”

"Brother Du, this silver is for nothing, brother, you should share the blessings." Qin Baichuan was a little admired this time, he wanted to treat Du Bo as a free laborer, but he didn't expect this guy to be a man, and he was not tempted by such a big fortune in front of him.

"It's right to share the blessings, but how hard it is to pull a team, Du can imagine it." Du Bo put the IOU away, and said, "Brother Qin dares to hand over such an IOU to me, which means that you can trust me, and you are not afraid that I will run away with the money." That being the case, Du might as well say clearly, I am good friends with your brother, and I do have ulterior motives, but if it is just for silver, then Du is better than being a happy thief on the sea, isn't it better than being controlled by others everywhere now? ”

Du Bo's words were upright and loud, Qin Baichuan felt a little ashamed, thinking about it, when Du Bo was a pirate, could he still be short of silver? Bent down slightly, Qin Baichuan was full of apologies: "What Brother Du taught me is that I am tactful." ”

"One last time, not an example." Du Bo patted Qin Baichuan on the shoulder: "Brother, Du has no interest in silver in this life, he just wants to be able to make a career and bless his descendants." It's nothing for the eldest brother to do something for you today, and when his brother is developed, just remember me. ”

"Brother Du, see the truth in the future." After talking about it, Qin Baichuan felt that his relationship with Du Bo was one step closer, and those so-called promises and oaths were meaningless, Qin Baichuan said indifferently.

"Big brother believes in you! Go back to the Hundred Flowers Workshop and wait, and when the money comes back, I will send it to you. Du Bo laughed heartily, said goodbye to Qin Baichuan, and then walked downstairs quickly, leaving in a hurry.

Du Bo went to Qu's house to ask for silver, thinking that the four old dogs were tired of coping, and they must have no extra energy to think about how to deal with Qu Xi, so she would have less worries. Speaking of which, even if the four old dogs don't give up, what can they do? At the beginning, Qu Xi cared about a little blood relative, endured and endured, retreated and retreated, and now both sides have completely torn their faces, with the vigorous and resolute means of the eldest wife, can the four old dogs still be her opponents?

In short, no matter what you say, if you solve a troublesome matter, Qin Baichuan's heart is also a lot more stable. Coming out of the drunken sky, Qin Baichuan wanted to go to the Chu family to talk to the old man Chu according to Du Bo's reminder, but at this time he was quite drunk, if he was a little disrespectful to the old man in the past now, he had no choice but to go back to the workshop to rest first, drank the sobering soup and slept for more than an hour, and after his mind was completely clear, he changed into a clean clothes and prepared to leave for the Chu family's compound.

Before leaving, Qin Baichuan asked people to take ten boxes of facial cleanser, gray-faced dolls, and bath foam, and the gifts were not expensive, but they were their own thoughts. Everything was ready, Qin Baichuan got into the carriage, Tan Jiaotou inquired all the way, and soon came to the Chu family's compound.

"Brother Qin!" After the family passed the word, Chu Ang trotted out of the courtyard, and bowed to Qin Baichuan from a distance: "After Chinese New Year's Eve, Chu Ang went to Wangjiang Tower several times to greet the eldest brother, but he didn't meet him. Hurry up, big brother, please. ”

Chu Ang led the way in front of him affectionately, and after a few words of greeting, Qin Baichuan handed the gift to Chu Ang, Chu Ang glanced at the list, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Qin, look at you, come here, what else do you bring?" During this time, the marketing department of the Hundred Flowers Workshop was pervasive, and even the maids in the house secretly discussed, saying that the rouge effect of the Hundred Flowers Workshop was excellent, and there were even bold maids who found me and asked me to talk to Brother Qin to see if I could give a preferential price......"

Chu Ang was a little speechless, he used to have a bad temper at home, and those maids were afraid that he would stay away as much as possible, but as his younger brother Chu Xuan and Qin Baichuan became more and more friendly, Chu Ang suddenly realized what it meant to be unseemly, so during this period of time, he changed his previous bad behavior of being above the top, and treated the maids sincerely, and found that he had a much better relationship with everyone.

No, a few maids who usually have a good relationship have the courage to let him be a lobbyist for a little discount, which is something he didn't want to think about before...... I don't know why, although I feel a little faceless and cheap, but thinking of the happy appearance of those little maids afterwards, he still feels that it is worth it to help others.

"You, the eldest prince of Chu, have already spoken, how can I not give face?" Chu Ang had such a change, Qin Baichuan was also happy for him, and said with a smile: "You just tell the maids at home that I will use the first set of rouge gouache every month for their own use, and charge it at a 7% discount of the market price; If they continue to take the goods, I will treat them as if they were selling to others, and give the goods at a 20% discount, and they will sell them at the market price, and the rest will be regarded as their dividends. ”

"Chu Ang thanked Brother Qin for the maids." Chu Ang clenched his fists a little excitedly, and said with a smile: "It is said that Brother Qin is a ghost skin, and he will not let go of any opportunity to make money...... Hehe, Brother Qin's trick is good, the maids are happy to get low-cost rouge gouache, and if they are more diligent, they can even earn a little private money; And Brother Qin can get the help of the maids without spending a penny, which is really wonderful, wonderful. ”

"This kind of buying and selling method is called direct sales, and if the Chu family workshop encounters sales problems, it may as well try to do so." Qin Baichuan did not hide his secrets, and simply instilled the concept of direct selling to Chu Ang, and only after the latter understood it did he get down to business: "I came here this time because I wanted to ask Old Man Chu for help, I don't know where he is now?" ”

"Hehe, Daddy is right." Chu Ang laughed out loud: "Daddy has been talking for the past two days, saying that Brother Qin has pulled a team, but he has no weapons, so he should come to him in the past two days...... Oh, Daddy is waiting in the back hall, Brother Qin, go quickly. Chu Ang pointed to a gate behind him, stopped Tan Jiaotou and said, "This brother, the back hall is the important land of the Chu family, only Brother Qin can go in, can you stay and have a cup of tea?" ”
