Chapter 155: Borrowing a Man
Jiang Yuanliu couldn't wait to meet the medicine merchant, unlike the merchant who was covered in silk and satin, this medicine merchant was dressed in navy blue cloth, with a thin appearance and elegant temperament, and he saluted Jiang Yuanliu politely, without any disrespect because Jiang Yuanliu was a woman.
"Boss Xu, I've seen the sample you brought, I don't know how much it costs?" Jiang Yuanliu got straight to the point, she had to meet a total of three pharmacists today and finalize the cooperation as soon as possible, so she didn't have time to greet her.
Xu Zhenghe was a little surprised and raised his eyebrows, but immediately regained his composure and marked the prices of several commonly used herbs that Jiang Yuanliu needed, giving them the most affordable prices.
"Another two percent." Jiang Yuanliu frowned, although the price was affordable, it was the price of the world's herbs, but this price was really unacceptable to her.
Xu Zhenghe shook his head with a smile and said seriously: "Boss Jiang, this is too difficult for me, I believe you should also know that the prices I give are the lowest on the market, if they are low, I will have to pay out of my own pocket to make up for the shortfall." ”
Jiang Yuanliu also laughed, Xu Zhenghe did not refuse, but joked and generally proposed to pay out of his own pocket, the reason why the status of businessmen is low is because he is a philistine by nature, and he is not as good as a scholar.
The businessman is profit-seeking, and the businessman will pay out of his own pocket to make up for the shortfall?
But Jiang Yuanliu didn't take Xu Zhenghe's words as a joke, how could there be useless gossip at the negotiation table? Xu Zhenghe's ability to go south and north to do the medicinal material business shows that he is a person with excellent mental and technical means.
"Business is about mutual benefit and win-win results, and I naturally won't let Boss Xu suffer." Jiang Yuanliu said paradoxically.
Xu Zhenghe saw that Jiang Yuanliu heard the meaning of his words, and he didn't dare to look down on the woman in front of him, so he got up, "I heard that Boss Jiang is a famous family......"
Hearing this, Jiang Yuanliu's face suddenly sank, she didn't want her father to be implicated in doing this, it was no problem to be a little fight for her daughter, if she was implicated in the Protector's Mansion, it would not be a trivial matter.
No matter where Xu Zhenghe learned about his identity, Jiang Yuanliu deliberately said: "Boss Xu thinks that he can't do business after being famous?" Or does Boss Xu have other plans? ”
Xu Zhenghe hurriedly waved his hand, "Boss Jiang misunderstood, Xu is just very interested in the beauty cream developed by Boss Jiang, if such a treasure is sold to the north and south of the river, it will definitely be able to make countless money." ”
"Boss Xu has a good eye, but this thing is expensive, and it is not something that ordinary people can do if they want to sell it." Jiang Yuanliu looked at Xu Zhenghe thoughtfully.
Of course, she knows that there is such a thing as a mask, as long as it is a woman, she will definitely be willing to pay for it, but if the price is low, she will not be able to enter the high-end market, and those daughters are not willing to use the same thing as ordinary people.
Jiang Yuanliu suddenly had an idea, "Boss Xu should know that this beauty cream is used by nobles in Beijing, it is not easy to make, the price is very expensive, and the Yuxiangfang was burned down by gangsters, although the repair has been completed, but it makes people jealous......"
She pushed the burning of the Jade Fragrance Workshop to the business of the Jade Fragrance Workshop, which is actually possible.
"What you said Xu is clear, and it is precisely because of this that Xu came to see Boss Jiang rashly." Although Xu Zhenghe is a pharmacist, it is not a stable job to do a medicinal material business.
Xu Zhenghe has ambitions and wants to become bigger and stronger, but he found that there is no problem in doing less in this medicinal material business, and it is very complicated if the quantity is huge, and without the support of a strong background, it is impossible to go further.
Lanzhou is located in a continuous mountain range, there are countless mountain herbs, and the Xu family also has a head and face in Lanzhou, but Xu Zhenghe is already a sideline, and it is not easy to use the power of his own family, but he doesn't want to give up the mountain herbs like a baby, so Xu Zhenghe will come to the capital to live.
After seeing the priceless beauty cream of Yuxiangfang, Xu Zhenghe's eyes were red, not only because of the expensive price, but also because he thought that he saw the way to make a fortune.
"Boss Jiang, do you know how rich the nobles over there are in Mobei?" When Xu Zhenghe was young, he followed the merchants to the north and south, and he went to the Baining Kingdom in Mobei and saw the lives of those extravagant aristocrats.
Hearing the word Mobei, Jiang Yuanliu's eyes lit up, she knew that what Mobei was best at was herding, being herded by a sheep and horses would make Mobei poor, the great nobles of Mobei were all rich, the kind that sat on the gold and silver mountains!
Jiang Yuanliu's heart was moved, Mobei not only has gold and silver mines, but also cattle and sheep everywhere, beef and mutton can be eaten, cowhide can be made into boots, and saddles can be made, and wool can be made into warm cotton clothes.
"What does Boss Xu mean by this?" Jiang Yuanliu stabilized her mind, she knew that the power in the capital was complicated, and the beauty cream she developed was expensive and the speed of accumulating money was extremely fast, which had already made some people blush.
What's more, she is the daughter of Jiang Fengmao, the protector of the country, and her father is jealous of the emperor by holding military power, if she is engaged in business and makes a lot of money, it will only bring endless killing opportunities to herself and her father.
However, Jiang Yuanliu knew very well that if she wanted to develop medical books, train doctors, and take care of those orphans who had lost their parents, she could not do without a lot of money, so she could only find another way.
Now the road is in front of her, and this opportunity appeared when she decided to support Zhao Jin to conceive the throne.
This is really a sleepy pillow, but the more pies fall from the sky, the calmer Jiang Yuanliu is, she must carefully distinguish whether it is a pie falling from the sky, or a discus that can kill her!
Therefore, no matter how Xu Zhenghe persuaded him, Jiang Yuanliu was unmoved, and posed as a noble girl in the capital, disdainful of money, in fact, he had quickly calculated in his heart, where to sell the beauty cream to the nobles of Mobei, how much gold and how much cashmere could be exchanged.
"Yuanliu, how are you talking?"
Miao Song did not participate in the negotiation between Jiang Yuanliu and Xu Zhenghe, and when she saw Jiang Yuanliu's solemn face, she was a little worried about the interrogation.
Jiang Yuanliu Zhengxin was immersed in calculating how much benefit this cooperation would have, so he picked up the hot tea poured by Miao Song for her, and after taking a sip, he suddenly asked, "Where are the other two merchants?" ”
"Gone." Miao Song glared at Jiang Yuanliu with disgust, "You talked to Boss Xu for three whole hours, and the other two pharmacists left in a hurry because they were impatient." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Yuanliu patted her forehead, she wanted to know the situation in Mobei too much, so she forgot the time while chatting, and looked at the sky outside, Jiang Yuanliu and Miao Song said goodbye and returned to the Protectorate Mansion.
As soon as he entered the door, Jiang Yuanliu felt that something was wrong, and said to the maid Cui'er as usual: "You go to the front yard and tell your father, I will go to the front yard after I freshen up, and I have important matters to discuss with my father." ”
Cui'er was stunned, it was not early, Grandpa Guo had always rested early, he should have slept at this time, why did he go to the front yard at this time? Jiang Yuanliu is the master, and Cui'er is the servant, so she naturally didn't dare to ask more, and immediately went to the front yard to report.
After Cui'er left, Jiang Yuanliu looked at the wide open door and said casually: "The person who comes is a guest, why hide and hide?" It's better to show up and drink a cup of hot tea. ”
As he spoke, Jiang Yuanliu picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea, the clear tea exuded a faint aroma, but there was no movement in the room.
Jiang Yuanliu was not in a hurry, but picked up a cup of tea and drank it lightly, and his unhurried appearance seemed to be strategizing, and everything was under control.
"Disturbing Miss Jiang, it's really a matter of urgency, and I hope Miss Jiang will forgive me."
A cold male voice sounded behind him, and Jiang Yuanliu slowly raised his eyebrows, "Second Highness broke into the women's boudoir at night, so he was not afraid that his reputation would be ruined?" ”
Zhao Jinhuai was masked, but Jiang Yuanliu called out his identity, he thought that he was wearing a night suit, and only a pair of eyes were left exposed, and he deliberately pinched his throat, Jiang Yuanliu must not be able to hear it.
"Miss Jiang has good eyesight, I don't know how she recognized me?" Zhao Jinhuai asked with interest.
"His Highness's eyes are completely different from others, even though His Highness hides deeply, but His Highness's eyes hide ambition." Jiang Yuanliu looked at Zhao Jinhuai with a smile, and sneaked into her boudoir in a night suit in the middle of the night, it seems that this second prince is not as upright and gentleman as he seems.
Zhao Jinhuai pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "Yuan Liu is frank and resourceful, and he is worthy of being the daughter of the protector of the country." ”
"Thanks for the compliment." Jiang Yuanliu drank tea, she had no question why Zhao Jinhuai came, she just looked at Zhao Jinhuai quietly, very calm, anyway, it was Zhao Jinhuai who was in a hurry, not her.
Zhao Jinhuai naturally saw Jiang Yuanliu's careful thoughts, not only was he not annoyed, but he laughed even deeper, "The topographic map that Yuanliu gave me yesterday is really a rare treasure, I don't know if you can get all the topographic maps of Qingqi Kingdom?" ”
"No, I have to travel thousands of miles to draw a map accurately, I just hearsay, it is difficult to perfect." Jiang Yuanliu told the truth, this map was drawn in idleness, and the terrain was not accurate.
Zhao Jinhuai seemed to be a little disappointed, picked up the teacup, and just took a sip, but was covered by a white and delicate hand.
"Your Highness, if a gentleman doesn't stand under the dangerous wall, how can other people's things be entered?" Jiang Yuanliu took the teacup by chance, she was not sure who was hiding in the room just now, so she sprinkled the secret medicine hidden in the ring into the cup without a trace.
Jiang Yuanliu's words made Zhao Jinhuai fall into silence.
He has always been careful and cautious, and he has been assassinated too many times since he was a child, so things outside will never be entered, but just now, for some reason, he actually wanted to taste the tea poured by Jiang Yuanliu himself.
"Ahem, what Yuan Liu said is reasonable." Zhao Jinhuai coughed lightly, hiding the embarrassment in his heart, he used Jiang Yuanliu as a strategist, and talented people came to him, whether it was a man or a woman, he had to give him enough respect.
