Chapter 168: Business Opportunities

Ruoxue smiled slyly, "I want to attract the eyes and minds of certain people to the ship, and there is another meaning in it." She said.

Ruohong didn't understand what she meant, and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Ruoxue smiled and said, "For example, what does it feel like for a person carrying grain to see thousands of bags of grain stacked in the warehouse, he must feel a lot of pressure, right?" ”

Ruohong nodded in agreement.

Ruoxue continued: "What if there are only ten bags of grain left in the warehouse? Then he'll feel a lot more relaxed, right? ”

Ruohong also smiled, "I understand, you are relieving the pressure on the weavers in Jiangnan." She said.

"yes, that's it."

When Ruohong wanted to ask what it meant to attract some people's attention, she saw Peony leading Fang Jin into the house, Ruoxue got up to greet her and said, "Uncle Fang, come in and sit." Spring willow to pour tea. ”

"Does the eldest lady have anything to tell Fang Mou?" Fang Jin hugged his fist towards Ruoxue.

A month ago, Fang Jin took over the matter of escorting some of the seafood to the capital, and finally delivered the goods after a tiring journey, not just a few days after returning from the capital, which made him go out again.

Ruoxue invited Fang Jin to sit down, and the maid served tea, and then told him about letting him go to Hangzhou, "Uncle Fang will go to Hangzhou to send two thousand catties of tea to the past, and sell all of them to the Zheng family, no matter what price they offer, give them all at once." She said.

"Okay."

Fang Jin took a sip of tea and looked at Ruoxue waiting for what she was going to say next.

"How many days does it take to get from here to Hangzhou?"

"More than twenty days."

Ruoxue thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Fang doesn't need to travel fast for the first seven days when he escorts the silk to the north, he can sail during the day and rest at night." ”

Fang Jin nodded and said, "I wrote it down." ”

"Where can you get from Hangzhou after walking for seven days?" Ruoxue asked.

Fang Jin thought for a moment and said, "It should be able to go to Suqian." ”

"Suqian."

Ruoxue estimated the distance behind and said, "Seven days later, Uncle Fang changed to a day and night journey, and traveled north to Cangzhou. ”

Fang Jin took a sip of tea, looked at Ruoxue and said, "Okay, I know." ”

"When Uncle Fang set off from Hangzhou, put your harrier eagle back, and I asked it to be given to you after I had a letter." Ruoxue said again.

"Okay."

Fang Jin didn't know why she didn't give him the letter now, but had to give it to him later, which revealed a dignified atmosphere.

Since the eldest lady doesn't want to give it to him now, she will know when the time comes.

Ruoxue and Fang Jin said a few words of caution on the road, and then said: "Uncle Fang has only come back for a short time, and he asked you to go out to dart, it's really hard Uncle Fang!" ”

"This is Fang's duty, the eldest lady doesn't have to be like this." Fang Jin said with a smile.

He took two more sips of tea, and when he saw that Ruoxue had nothing to order, he got up and arched his hand to Ruoxue, and said, "There's nothing wrong here, so I'll leave first, if you have any orders, just send someone to inform me." ”

Ruoxue got up and sent him to the porch outside, and when she saw that he was far away, she turned around and went back to the house.

Fang went in and out and turned into the east corner door, and saw Qiu Lin waiting there, he said, "What are you doing here to block me?" Do you want me to treat you to dinner? ”

Qiu Lin smiled flatteringly and said, "How dare I let Master invite me to dinner, I invite you to boil fish for dinner, right?" ”

"Next time."

"What? Did the eldest lady let you dart again? ”

"Yes!"

"Where did the eldest lady tell you to go?"

"Escort two thousand catties of tea to Hangzhou, and then send the silk over there to Cangzhou." Fang Jin said.

Qiu Lin straightened his expression and said, "Master, let me go, I haven't been out for a long time." Let me go out for a walk...... too."

Fang Jin smiled, "Do you think I'm going out to play?!" He said.

"It's not." Qiu Lin said anxiously: "I really want to go to the dart, I stay at home every day and get moldy!" ”

The two of them walked out of the corner gate and came to the street, and turned their heads to see a luxury carriage parked at the gate of Mei's house, surrounded by more than a dozen guards.

Fang Jin patted Qiu Lin on the shoulder and said, "Your task is to protect the eldest lady, stay behind!" ”

Qiu Lin made a bitter face, and saw Fang Jin walk away, before turning around and walking towards the gate.

Fang Jin returned to the dart game, picked out more than 30 guards, asked them to prepare, and loaded tea with him to go to Hangzhou tomorrow.

Qiao Lian came in and replied to Ruoxue: "Miss, the county lord of Xiyang is coming to visit, waiting for you in the small flower hall in front." ”

In the house, Ruoxue sat leisurely on the side of the embroidery frame, embroidering a foot-long koi with a good colored thread.

Not far from her, Ruohong was holding an embroidered bandage, and she was also embroidering, embroidering a bush of bluegrass.

Ruolan sat next to Ruohong, and also held an embroidered bandage to thread needles and threads there, embroidering a few small leaves.

A few maids sat in a scattered circle, either tying or embroidering shoe uppers, all doing their own thing.

Ruoxue took the needle, raised her head and said, "Got it." ”

Lian Xin put down the needle and thread in her hand, and walked to the side to take a large handkerchief and cover it on the embroidery frame.

Ruolan saw that the two sisters had stopped, and asked, "Don't you embroider?" ”

"Well, no embroidery."

"Yay!"

Ruolan cheered, threw down the embroidered bandage, pulled Ruohong and ran outside.

Ruoxue smiled dotingly, the fifth sister was detained by Ruohong and sat for more than half an hour, which is not easy!

Ruolan ran into the small flower hall in the front yard and saw Murong Baotong behaving in good order, "Hello, sister of the county lord." She said.

Murong Baotong touched her face and said, "Hello! What about your sister? ”

"It's in the back."

Xiao Tao ran in after him, took out a handkerchief and wiped the fine sweat on Ruolan's forehead, and the other hand held a fan and fanned her a few times.

Ruoxue and Ruohong came in and saluted Murong Baotong and asked, "Why are you free to come to our house?" ”

"I can't tell you to go out and walk around, so I'm coming."

"We are keeping filial piety, and we can't go out in circles."

"Cut!"

Murong Baotong snorted disdainfully, "You went to Ningbo last month, don't prevaricate me with this, you really treat me for a fool!" She said.

Ruoxue invited her to sit down, and several people sat around the round table, let people serve tea, and let people serve chilled watermelons, and then said: "Our family is a merchant, of course, we must focus on business, go out when we should go out, and don't go out when we shouldn't." ”

"It's always up to you!"

Murong Baotong seemed to think of something, looked at Ruoxue and Ruohong and said, "Brother Tao and I went to your shop to eat boiled fish twice, it's really delicious!" I want to open a restaurant in the capital and sell your boiled fish, do you think this idea is good? ”
