Chapter 012: Make this exception

Zhang Xi went all the way to Wuzhangfeng, explained the reason, and was respectfully invited to the back hall.

There is a difference between men and women, and it is inconvenient for Liu Ji to come forward, so he asked his sister Liu Xiu to entertain him, planning to wait for Zhang Chi to come, and then discuss together.

The capital is not as good as Weixian, and most of the people who can enter Wuzhangfeng to buy paper kites are people of status, in order to avoid colliding with those official women, Liu Xiu and his brother Liu Ji entered Beijing together, specifically responsible for receiving female guests.

"The arrival of distinguished guests really makes the small shop shine." Liu Xiu smiled all over his face, and as soon as he entered the door, he was complimented to Zhang Xi.

As the only concubine of the British duke, Zhang Xi has long been accustomed to this, and greeted Liu Xiu with a smile. Because he knew that Liu Xiu was only responsible for receiving the official relatives who came to buy on a daily basis, and did not participate in the management of the shop, Zhang Xi only talked to her about homely things.

After a round of tea, Zhang Chi, who was dressed in a strong suit, strode in, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

Zhang Xi knew at a glance that the third brother of the martial arts idiot must have hurried over from the martial arts arena.

Liu Xiu hurriedly stood up, and before he could say hello, he saw his brother Liu Ji hurrying in.

"Ziping let me chase for a while!" Liu Ji panted and laughed.

Obviously, he saw Zhang Chi coming on horseback from a distance upstairs, so he hurriedly went downstairs to greet him, but who knew that it was still not as fast as Zhang Chi's footsteps. He is really worthy of being the son of the British Duke of the Great Qi Tiger General!

The four of them greeted each other and sat down.

Zhang Xi took out the "Illustration of Colorful Feiluan" and handed it to Liu Ji, and relayed Huang Yi'an's cooperation conditions.

Before Liu Ji could look at the picture, he was stunned and said, "Miss Huang wants to share according to the sales amount?" Wuzhang Feng has never had this rule! Besides, how can Miss Huang guarantee that her custom-made paper kite will definitely satisfy her guests? What's more, it also involves all the ladies in the palace......"

After that, he felt that his tone was too tough and a little inappropriate, so Liu Ji hurriedly remedied: "Perhaps, you can give Miss Huang some extra compensation on the ranking list in the spring and autumn?" ”

After all, the ranking list has always been summarized and clearly displayed by the store, and there is still room for maneuvering.

Zhang Xi shook his head and said, "I also mentioned this to Miss Huang, but she didn't agree. ”

After a pause, seeing Liu Ji's brows frowning slightly, Zhang Xi said again: "Let's not mention this for the time being, why don't Liu Shaodong take a look at the "Colorful Feiluan Illustration" in your hand first, and then make a decision?" ”

Since Huang Yi'an specially gave her this scroll and asked her to transfer it to Liu Ji, it is very important for this smooth cooperation.

Liu Ji was also unwilling to have a stiff relationship with Zhang Xi, who obviously wanted to help Huang Yi'an, and lost the line of the British Mansion, so he skipped the matter and opened the scroll in his hand.

With just one glance, Liu Ji's gaze was firmly glued to the diagram, and everything around him was forgotten by him.

As a paper kite family, Liu Ji knows the value of this illustration too well!

Complex paper kite is not difficult to make, the difficulty is how to make it fly smoothly, and fly high and far.

Therefore, the "North Stygian Dapeng" will be regarded as the treasure of the town store, and has been hanging in the open hall, rather than selling at a high price - the masterpiece of Xu Wenchang, a famous scholar in Shanyin, who is both excellent in calligraphy and painting, is certainly one of the reasons, but more importantly, because of the complex shape, the "Northern Dapeng" has very strict requirements for flying conditions, and the trial release has ended in failure. In order not to smash the signboard, I had to offer it up.

From the "Illustration of Colorful Feiluan" in his hand, Liu Ji saw the possibility of a paper kite with a complex shape like the "Northern Dapeng" flying smoothly!

By now, Wuzhangfeng no longer needs to simply chase sales profits, but has a higher pursuit - the reputation and prestige of the industry, and the inheritance of the ancestral industry.

If that Miss Huang is more than that......

Liu Ji couldn't help but be excited just thinking about it, and immediately said: "We can all agree to Miss Huang's conditions, and we don't need her to take on the female guests, including the paper kite customization of all the ladies in the palace!" ”

Although Miss Huang's craftsmanship in tying paper kites is extremely exquisite, and she also has her own unique opinions, if she can find out the preferences of female guests and even the ladies in the palace......

The daughter of a nine-rank civil official, he doesn't believe it.

In this case, it is better to send Zhang Xi a favor, and by the way, he also put forward his own conditions.

Zhang Xi didn't expect Liu Ji to be so decisive, and he only looked at a diagram to deal with this matter, and couldn't help but be happy for Huang Yi'an, but he still asked cautiously: "Liu Shaodong has other conditions?" ”

"Miss Zhang is really smart!" Liu Ji laughed and praised.

Although he and Zhang Chi are good friends, they have no relationship with the British government, not to mention the huge disparity in official and business status, so he does not dare to make a mistake for Zhang Xi, the only concubine of the British prince, and has always been honorific and respectful.

"I have only one condition, that is, Miss Huang is not allowed to cooperate with other paper kite shops in any form within five years. Of course, for the possible losses caused by Miss Huang as a result, Wuzhang Feng will bear it! Liu Ji said solemnly.

Five years is enough for Wuzhangfeng's master to learn all the skills of Miss Huang, and it is enough for Wuzhangfeng to leave his peers far behind. At that time, no matter whether Miss Huang cooperates with other paper kite shops or not, it will no longer affect Wuzhangfeng.

Liu Ji's cheerfulness and arrogance were beyond Zhang Xi's expectations, but she still replied cautiously: "This matter depends on Miss Huang's wishes." ”

Huang Yi'an is thirteen years old this year, and she will be eighteen years old in five years, and she will be married by that time, and it is still a problem for her husband to let her continue to "show up".

"Of course." Liu Ji got up, arched his hand and smiled, "Then Miss Lao Zhang will have to work hard again." ”

Since Zhang Xi and that Miss Huang are good friends, it will definitely be twice the result with half the effort for her to say this matter.

"Liu Shaodong is polite." Zhang Xi smiled, "This is also my own business!" ”

No matter how much, she finally took a stake in Wuzhangfeng, and it is not wrong for her to care about the business of the shop.

Liu Ji laughed and thanked him.

Zhang Chi, an onlooker who didn't say a word throughout the whole process: ......

So, why did you call him here in such a hurry?

……

On the second day, Zhang Xi conveyed Liu Ji's conditions to Huang Yi'an.

She originally thought that Huang Yi'an would hesitate, but as soon as she finished speaking, Huang Yi'an smiled and said, "Okay, then it's decided!" ”

Zhang Xi was stunned, paused, and asked, "But five years...... Isn't it too long? ”

"I'm too short." Huang Yi'an said with a smile, "If you settle down once, you won't have to worry about this matter later." ”

In this life, she doesn't want to be like in her previous life, and she has to live her best every day.

"What's more, the conditions given by Wuzhangfeng have far exceeded my expectations." Huang Yi'an said with satisfaction.

Not to mention anything else, the compensation for the loss that did not allow her to cooperate with other paper kite shops was far beyond her expectations.

"Thank you Sister Zhang for this!" Huang Yi'an took Zhang Xi's hand and smiled crookedly.

If it weren't for the face of the British Mansion, even if she had great talent, Liu Ji would never have agreed so happily.

So, in return, I decided to keep the matter from leaking! In addition, we will never participate in the ranking of spring and autumn seasons in five years! Huang Yi'an raised three fingers and said with a smile.
