Chapter 42: Talking Business
The next day, when Hongling woke up from her dream, it was past noon, and she was glad that Chen Jinye didn't embarrass her anymore, but she had no choice but to make the painting she had worked so hard to make, and the person probably didn't even look at it, it was a waste of her hard work all night. Well, put it away carefully, if you ask her to paint next time, it can be regarded as an explanation, but you can't do such useless things anymore.
After a brief meal, Hongling began to liquidate the existing belongings to see how much she could spend, and she had a number in her heart. Sure enough, these brought from the heavenly spectrum, plus the rewards of the Emperor and Empress Nanzhao, are already an astronomical amount, so there is no need to worry about not being able to overwhelm those vendors in terms of momentum. Around the end of the evening, Hongling ordered Xiaoqing to go out of the house with her to 'eat'.
......
As soon as I entered the Purple Building, I saw He, Wang, and Liu facing each other in front of the Yage, and Hongling immediately arched her hand and said: "Shopkeeper He, Shopkeeper Wang, Shopkeeper Liu, don't come to harm."
When a few people saw Hong Ling coming, they bowed their hands with joy, and said: "Hong Gongzi is polite, I feel very honored to be able to make friends with a big man like Hong Gongzi."
As several shopkeepers and Hongling entered the table, a few people gossiped politely, and only gradually got to the point when the meal was almost ready.
"I don't know the conditions that I talked to you about a few days ago, how did you think about it?"
After a few more glances, I said, "I think this agreement is feasible, but the agreed period is longer, and I am afraid that future generations will ...... I wonder if we can shorten this period a little."
Hong Ling raised her eyebrows, secretly thinking that this was also good, thinking for a while, thinking that this business was just used to earn peace of mind, and it was not necessary for her to live for a hundred years, so she said: "The hundred-year period said that day is indeed longer, so it is better to take the life and death of the contemptible people, and the date of the despicable people's death is the expiration of our contract."
A few shopkeepers couldn't help but be startled when they heard Hong Gongzi's unruly words, how could anyone be so reluctant to talk about their life and death, is it a half-hearted? But it really doesn't look like it left and right.
A few people whispered again, thinking that even if this red boy was a loser of a rich family, he would never be short of money for them, and this would be fine, and it would be about a few decades at most, which was much better than the hundred-year period. looked at each other and said that they all agreed.
"Hong Gongzi, but how to calculate this money?"
Hong Ling opened the folding fan and smiled cheerfully: "This money is impartial, give each of you three hundred taels of silver, how about the monthly salary for working in my shop in the future?" ”
Several shopkeepers were overjoyed and said, "This is excellent"
I saw Hong Ling's words change and said: "However, for the time being, I only accept two permanent workers per family, if there are more, I have to rely on my ability, after all, I also want to make money, right?" ”
Shopkeeper Liu took the lead and said: "That's nature, that's nature"
Seeing that a few people were already happy to be like this, Hongling smiled slightly, motioned Xiaoqing to take out the prepared pen and ink, and said, "In that case, we might as well draw up a treaty first, how about it?" ”
I saw the shopkeeper Wang slowly kneeling on the mat, and said very sincerely: "I have studied in the school for a few years, if the red boy can trust me, how about I ghostwrite?" ”
Hong Ling raised her eyebrows slightly, and when she saw the two shopkeepers next to her looking at her quite eagerly, she smiled slowly and said, "It's the best."
Then a treaty was signed, and the store was officially owned by the 'Red Prince' in seven days. It just so happened that Hongling also needed some time to think about what kind of business to do to make money.
Full of wine and food, when it was time to finish, night fell, there was no one on the street, Hongling took Xiaoqing's hand and wandered around, Xiaoqing chattered on the side.
"Miss, what do you think we should do?"
"When am I going to learn to make pastries with Yu?"
"We're going to make a lot of money, hahaha......"
......
Hongling herself felt strange, she didn't feel annoyed at all when she was so constantly thought about, but she had a feeling of being lost for a long time, as if she had never been nagged like this since she came to this other world.
I remember that every time I came back from the bar, the woman would have to nag non-stop, and even my father, who had always spoiled herself, was brainwashed by her and kept chattering, in other words, before my parents divorced, even if I made a mess at home, my father would frown at most and 'oops' a few times, and then clean up the messy home as before.
I don't know how her ruthless father and that woman are doing, if she finds another sensible and well-behaved daughter, she will forget about herself completely. Perhaps, after all, he has done so many things that make him sad, and he will probably never think of her unfilial daughter again, maybe he didn't notice that I was gone.
"Miss? Miss!? Are you listening to me? Xiaoqing shook Hongling vigorously
Hongling came back to her senses at this time, and hurriedly replied: "Listen, what you said about my ears are about to grow calluses, let's go back to the house now, this is always okay, right?" ”
Xiaoqing grinned and muttered, "I know you didn't listen to me", and as she spoke, she raised her hand and carried a white and clear jade pendant, "Na, Miss, look."
Hongling was slightly puzzled and said, "What is this?" ”
I saw Xiaoqing pretending to be old and shook his head, and said, "I know that Miss you are distracted again, just now an immortal flew in front of us, and I lost this, and I caught it at once."
"Immortals?"
Seeing Hongling's eyes full of disbelief, Xiaoqing jumped to her feet in a hurry, and said: "Naturally, it is an immortal, mortals will disappear from the eaves of the house", seeing that Hongling was still full of suspicion, Xiaoqing pouted and said: "Xiaoqing never lies, that immortal is wearing white clothes, so Xiaoqing can see it"
Seeing Xiaoqing's embarrassed appearance, Hongling burst out laughing and said, "Okay, believe in you", after that, Hongling took the jade pendant in Xiaoqing's hand and looked at it carefully, but she didn't see the reason.
I wondered if it would be a killer or a secret agent or something, accidentally dropped, I was afraid of getting into trouble and wanted to lose it, but Xiaoqing didn't follow it, saying that this was specially given by the fairy in the sky when he saw the dexterity of the two of us, maybe it was a good peace charm or wishing charm, and he must keep it. Hongling couldn't resist her, so she stuffed it into her arms and said: "Then you store it carefully, don't take it out at will to show off, lest the immortals be ashamed and don't admit it."
Xiaoqing was also very helpless when she saw that her young lady was getting bigger and bigger, so she took it and thought that one day it would come in handy.
