Before leaving, Qin Xiang remembered that he hadn't gotten angry with Han Yunxiao yet, so he hurriedly ran back again.

After Han Yunxiao heard the news, he was really angry and funny.

"The carriage has been packed up, and you came to inform me?"

Qin Xiang rubbed the corners of his clothes and said with a flattering smile: "Isn't it that I'm too busy to take care of anything else...... Besides, it's not far from the city, so if you want me, I'll come and see me. What's more, when you used to go into the mountains to hunt, you didn't come back for several days. ”

Han Yunxiao raised her eyebrows, couldn't help pinching her chin, and said helplessly: "I was here for a living, but when I entered the mountain, I didn't fulfill what I told you." ”

Qin Xiang consciously took care of the loss, and hugged Han Yunxiao's arm for a long time to coax people.

If it weren't for the fact that the original body's face was tender enough, she really couldn't pull this face.

How many years has she been an adult, and she still has to be coquettish and cute like a little girl, and she is disgusting.

Xiaoyu, Chen Wuliu and the others waited outside the door for a long time before they saw Qin Xiang go out. Seeing that the owner's face was ruddy and the lipstick had been reapplied, he tacitly showed an ambiguous smile.

The owner and the general have been married for so long, and they are still like a newlywed couple, which is really enviable.

Fortunately, Qin Xiang was in a hurry to set off, and he didn't pay attention to the expressions of the two, otherwise he would have to be ashamed to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Don't look at her, although she is a modern person, she is conservative by nature, and she can't show affection in public.

"Let's go."

On the way, Qin Xiang was not idle, so he took a charcoal pen and wrote the next plot of "The Legend of General Huwei" on paper.

The carriage was flat on the official road, and when it got out of the city, it gradually became bumpy.

Fortunately, when escorting grain and grass, Qin Xiang was used to it, but he could find a way to entertain himself.

When she went to Fucheng, it was like asking the old craftsman to try how to improve the carriage, at least the shock absorption effect should be strengthened. Otherwise, if she travels often in the future, she is afraid that she will fall apart.

The summer night came later, and there was no delay along the way, and when the sky was dark, it was not far from the capital city.

The group simply took a break in the woods and ate some dry food.

Early the next morning, after dawn, it was another trek.

When I arrived in Fucheng, it happened to be the early morning of the third day.

As soon as the city gate opened, Qin Xiang and the others entered the city.

Counting the time, she hasn't been back for a year.

There was not much difference between Fucheng and before she left, and after a short rest, Qin Xiang went to see the factory on the outskirts of the city after washing up.

It provides all the products of 'Hunan' and 'on the water side', but due to the limitations of production technology and productivity, it is still a fool's dream to achieve large-scale production.

Today's 'factory' is more like the model of a small European family workshop.

Like some countries in Europe, many cities have such small workshops to maintain the operation of the whole city. In particular, some crafts that have been passed down for generations pay more attention to adhering to tradition.

Qin Xiang is not a seeker of traditional culture, but he also feels that these traditional things should be preserved. Therefore, after she left her job, she used to go to various parts of the country to see the local culture, and unconsciously learned a lot of miscellaneous skills.

Such as weaving cloth, such as dyeing cloth, although she is not doing well, she can barely be regarded as handy.

After seeing the factory, I went to the old craftsman's carpentry workshop.

The carpentry workshop had apprentices and was refurbished to make it look decent.

"Yo, this isn't a little girl."

I haven't seen him for a year, and the old craftsman saw that Qin Xiang was very aggressive.

"I heard that Han Boy won the battle, but he couldn't find the north because he was so happy."

Looking at the old craftsman's expression of disgust, which was obviously worried, Qin Xiang could only hold back his laughter. lest you accidentally laugh out and let the old craftsman 'hard' hide his heart leak out.

After a few contacts with the old craftsman, she found out that the old craftsman called her 'Little Girl' and Han Yunxiao 'Han Boy', but it was really close and distinct.

He and Han Yunxiao don't want to hide it from her, obviously the two are old acquaintances, and they want to make a picture of meeting for the first time.

Qin Xiang didn't know what kind of relationship the old craftsman had between Han Yunxiao, but the old man had no bad intentions. The old craftsman's personality is a little arrogant, like the kind of old man who cares about his grandson but wants to make a dismissive appearance.

If nothing else, it's weirdly cute.

"yes, he's really happy. There is nothing to be happy about winning this war without too many casualties. ”

"Hmph, if he really loses, don't ask for that face." The old craftsman snorted coldly, looked at Qin Xiang, and wondered, "If you don't go to Xijing to stay, what are you going to do when you go back to Fucheng?" ”

Qin Xiang said helplessly: "I made my fortune from Fucheng, and this is my root." What's more, these factories are all in Fucheng, so I can't leave them alone. I came this time to communicate with the factory about some technical issues. ”

She wants to make a joint payment, and she is worried that these people will not understand, so she can only come over to talk in person. Moreover, she also has things that need the help of the old craftsman.

"I'm going to make a batch of boxes here, specifically like this......"

Qin Xiang found the old craftsman because he wanted to customize a batch of packaging boxes to use as a special design for the store celebration.

She has already designed the box, and she can find a suitable craftsman in Xijing. But Qin Xiang thought about it again and again, and still chose to come to the old craftsman.

First, the old craftsman is her employee, so of course it is more convenient to find him. The second is that they have cooperated many times, and they will communicate better than other carpenters.

"The wood only needs to be slightly better, but it must be polished and shiny, and the brand logo must be added."

Qin Xiang wants to make incense and plans to come up with a special gift box.

Gift boxes have always been a weapon for grabbing money.

Many brands have gift boxes, only on the basis of the original brand with special packaging, plus a few limited editions, can make consumers generously spend money.

In this era, there are no 'consumption traps', and the customers who come to the store are very simple. Qin Xiang decided to use the concept of gift box version to let some customers form the concept of purchasing.

Moreover, she also wanted to take the opportunity to launch a few spices to lay the foundation.

You know, spices are a very lucrative business.

However, in Xiyan, incense making is still in its infancy, and it can allow Qin Xiang to operate.

The old craftsman deserves to be a professional, and after listening to Qin Xiang's ideas, he sublimated her original design by drawing inferences.

"Well, I trust you!"

After leaving the old craftsman's place, it was almost noon.

Qin Xiang first went to the main store of nibbling chicken in Fucheng to take a look, and then went to Zhao's shopkeeper's shop.

Her shop is a flat version of 'On the Water Side', and the name is simple, just a ready-to-wear name. Qin Xiang came over today to discuss with Shopkeeper Zhao about opening a branch in Xijing.

At this time, she especially misses the modern and convenient means of transportation, as well as the well-developed Internet and telephone network.

Without that, it's too much trouble to contact someone.

"But I'm just starting out in making ready-to-wear clothes, so I'm really suitable for opening a branch?" Shopkeeper Zhao didn't have a score in his heart, and he inevitably showed a little worry, "If it doesn't sell well, wouldn't it be a waste of store rent and labor." Besides, Xijing is so far away, I'm worried about ......"

Qin Xiang didn't interrupt Zhao's shopkeeper's words, but patiently waited for her to listen.

After learning about Zhao's shopkeeper's worries, he said unhurriedly: "I heard Zhang Xiaoyu say that your shop is running very well." Some ready-to-wear garments are also sold to some merchants, and they take them to other places to sell, right? Since merchants are willing to spend money to buy, it means that the garment business is still very good. Instead of being sold by them, why not use our own brand.

I've already designed your logo for you, and when it's time to create our own brand. Today you just opened a branch in Xijing, maybe next year your branches will open to Dongluan and Xidi. ”

When the shopkeeper Zhao heard this, he waved his hand again and again: "It's already very good that I can run the shop in Xijing well, but I don't dare to think so much." ”

Qin Xiang knew that he couldn't be in a hurry, he still had to take it step by step. Her current partners, in addition to Shopkeeper Zhao and Shopkeeper Lin, are similar, but different. Shopkeeper Lin is a wonderful person, she is strong and funny, and she never feels that there is anything in this world that a woman can't do. If a man can do it, why can't a woman?

If it is put in modern times, Lin Shopkeeper is definitely an outstanding representative of outstanding women. Influenced by the family business, the shopkeeper Lin is extremely talented in business. And because she is the only one left in the family and has to support the family business, she is more likely to accept failure than Zhao's shopkeeper. At the same time, she also tries hard to accept new things.

And Zhao's shopkeeper was just a mom-and-pop shop at first, and his biggest wish in life was to run a small cloth shop well. Qin Xiang wanted her to go to Xijing to open a branch and bring the ready-to-wear over, which was a big challenge for Zhao's shopkeeper.

"Don't worry, you're not alone, and I'm still here. You supervise the factory in Fucheng and are in charge of purchasing, while the shop in Xijing has someone to take care of. If you are willing to do so one day, you can come to Xijing in person. First it was a small shop, and then there were hundreds, if not thousands. At that time, we don't need to open a shop at all, but directly sell our own brand to other houses, and wait to count the silver at that time. ”

Perhaps he was dazzled by Qin Xiang's future fandom, but Shopkeeper Zhao finally agreed.

In terms of ready-to-wear, Qin Xiang can be responsible for design, but he is not as experienced as Zhao's shopkeeper in the selection of fabrics. Some of the suggestions occasionally put forward by the shopkeeper Zhao are also very valuable assets for Qin Xiang, which can enrich her designs even more.

After seeing the shopkeeper Zhao, I hurriedly had lunch and was about to go to the oil refinery.

Today's refinery is no longer what it used to be, and it is responsible for the processing of most of the edible oil in Fucheng and the western extension.

Qin Xiang came this time, and he also agreed with someone to expand the scale of the factory. Now that the industry is limited in production capacity, she is very satisfied with this kind of output.

Earlier, because of the oil refining law, she was troubled by several 'imperial relatives', and she didn't dare to sell her own oil to the capital. Now that the old emperor has killed his sons, and locked them up, no one must have time to take care of the cooking oil.

It was with these in mind that Qin Xiang decided to expand the scale so that the edible oil could be sold farther.

For this point, Shopkeeper Lin also agrees very much.

"I have asked a cargo ship to transport some cooking oil to sell, and the response has been good."
