Speaking of the hailstorm two months later, Ruodian Cui is just an ordinary person, just using this pre-known natural disaster to earn money. But now she is the wife of this house, and she has compassion for the people.

But it rains a lot in the south, and if you want to say that hail is rare, so rashly tell the adults, even if he believes it, the people will not believe it. Diancui thought about it for several days, and found the reason, and couldn't help but be anxious.

Miaozhu came to report again that the Yuan family was soft and hard, and thought that they were determined to buy back the original house. The seller was somewhat afraid of the status of the lord in Hangzhou Mansion, and was slightly relieved.

Diancui knew that the family was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and if she really taught them to buy the house, it would not only be a matter of business, but also a slap in the face of her family.

How dare they, how dare they!

Yuan Zhiheng came back in the evening, and saw that Diancui was not as usual, and he didn't eat it after a few bites of dinner, Yuan Zhiheng asked her and quickly smiled and said that it was okay.

Yuan Zhiheng remained silent, and on the second day, he summoned Yuan Fu to inquire what the lady had done in the past few days. I haven't seen Miss Xin'er for a few days, and finally got a chance to get close to people and say a few words, Yuan Fu went happily here.

After thinking about it all night, Diancui summoned Du Xiaozhu and asked him to check on the Yuan family. He also instructed Miaozhu to send a message to the seller, saying that she would buy the house in March, and if he dared to sell the house to others, especially the Yuan family, within three months, then he would not want to mix in Hangzhou Mansion in the future.

Such a blatant threat, Miaozhu listened very happily, in the past, when I was in Yunzhou, I didn't have any backing to do business, it was very difficult, and I was often three points lower when I saw people. Nowadays, there are people who rely on and can do business with their heads held high and their chests held high, how can they not make people unhappy?

After another three days, Diancui didn't think of how the method could be successfully made for the adults to issue a decree and let the silkworm farmers take measures to avoid disasters. had to follow the original plan first, and called Miaozhu and Shopkeeper Liu to go to the silk business.

Shopkeeper Liu went to Taihu Lake to collect raw silk, and it took only three days to collect the warehouse. The lady was obviously not satisfied with this warehouse full of silk, so she opened a new warehouse, took another two thousand taels from the account of Angelica Pavilion, and told the shopkeeper Liu to collect it again.

With two thousand taels of silver tickets in hand, the shopkeeper Liu only felt that the courage on his shoulders was getting heavier and heavier, so he carefully accepted it, and went to the silver number to exchange the silver ticket for broken silver. When they first started the silk business, they couldn't find a good way, and the only good way at the moment was to collect them from the silkworm households one by one. Dealing directly with silkworm households, the silver ticket is naturally not needed, so it has to be exchanged for broken silver.

On the second day, the shopkeeper Liu brought a few strong men to collect the raw silk again, and it was still the same price. Those silkworm farmers secretly competed to sell their best silk to him, although this person has high requirements for the quality of raw silk, but you must know that the price he gave a pound of raw silk is a full five more than those raw silk dealers!

Such prices spread among silkworm households, although in previous years there were fixed merchants to collect their silk, but who did not want to make a little more. The silkworm household only chose those good silks to sell to him secretly, and in order not to offend the original cooperative merchants, only a small part of the products were sold to them.

Shopkeeper Liu collected silk more smoothly than others, and he robbed other people's business like this, which naturally caused the eyes of other traders.

Taihu Lake has been an important place for silk production for many years, and this year's batch of silk is in good condition and has a large output, so some silk dealers and silk merchants have started to suppress prices.

In previous years, the people who collected silk came and went, but this year, a person surnamed Liu appeared out of nowhere, and spent a lot of money to collect silk directly from which silkworm farmers, and the price was still according to last year's price, which made everyone very uncomfortable.

When the output is large, the low price is low, and when the output is small, the high price is also high, which is the default common rule, but this kid dares to insert a lever horizontally, and dares to disturb the price of raw silk.

As soon as everyone discussed, someone made a bad move.

That night, the shopkeeper Liu and a few family members stayed on the passenger ship, and before going to bed, they carefully checked the raw silk collected in the warehouse to ensure that it was okay, and ordered everyone to take turns on duty at night, and then took turns to sleep.

On the morning of the second day, after the three-pole boat was moving, the shopkeeper Liu woke up.

"Hurry up, how is it to check the raw silk in the warehouse?" Shopkeeper Liu rubbed his numb brain, and had a bad premonition in his heart.

"Brother Liu, what's wrong? When I woke up, I opened the hatch and saw that the raw silk was still there. "Although the family who started to be on duty in the second half of the night also slept, he woke up and checked it as soon as he woke up, and there was no problem with the raw silk.

Shopkeeper Liu was not at ease, so he went to check, and the raw silk was indeed still there, but he always felt that something was wrong.

This feeling did not dissipate until they went all the way from Taihu Lake to Hangzhou.

Dian Cui listened to him tell him about the situation of the past few days, and he also had a rough idea in his heart that they should have been drugged that night.

Diancui went to look at the raw silk of the newly entered cabin, and weighed it, and there was no problem.

"After you were drugged, can you have less money on you?" Diancui asked.

The shopkeeper shook his head, and said that there was no less, and Diancui thought for a moment and said, "Next time, I will go to collect the silk and pay more attention." In order to be sure, go to the dart bureau and ask two dart masters to escort you all the way. ”

"Yes, ma'am." Madame attaches great importance to this matter of raw silk, but it cannot be ruined in his hands. Shopkeeper Liu made up his mind to take the waterway next time, so he stopped sleeping and guarded the cabin.

Shopkeeper Liu continued to take people to collect raw silk, and Miaozhu looked at the pile of more and more raw silk, and took the initiative to find some cui:

"Master, it's not always a way to pile up raw silk here, do you need slaves and maids to find a few weaving workshops and spin it into silk?"

Diancui nodded and said: "Let's not just weave 10,000 horses this time, if we want to weave silk on a large scale, we need to go to Jiangnan Weaving to get the paperwork." I am the wife of an official family, and it is only my dowry that the shop is my dowry, and I am not good at doing this silk business on the surface. I will open another shop in your name, and you and Shopkeeper Liu will take care of it together in the future. I will be your support in the future, of course, I still need the help of Mrs. Cui to do it at this time. ”

"Now what you have to do is to find a few suitable weaving and dyeing workshops, regardless of whether Hangzhou or the nearby state capital, only choose the kind of weaving is good, the pattern is novel, and the color is brightly dyed. Don't talk about the price first, just talk about the intention of cooperation. Dian Cui said again.

At this time, raw silk is abundant, waiting for the weaving and dyeing of the big cloth spinning shop too many, is the price of this weaving and dyeing workshop will inevitably be higher, if not a regular customer, not necessarily to face cooperation. It's just that Diancui is now letting Miaozhu go just to get a familiar face, not to talk about business now. Diancui was waiting, and when the time was right, those dyeing and weaving workshops came back and begged to do business on their own.

Miaozhu was stunned for a long time, the master first told her that he wanted to find another way out for her and the shopkeeper Liu, and the master never broke his word, but he didn't expect to find such an open way out for them. Miaozhu knelt down and solemnly kowtowed three times, and didn't say much to do things on her own.

In the past, Diancui was taboo because the Cui family was the second prince and a party, and he was not very enthusiastic with the Cui family's wife, but he could talk and laugh when he met, but he got along well with the straightforward and scheming Miss Cui family.

Diancui and Miss Cui handed over the post, Miss Cui listened to her intentions, thought for a moment and said:

"It's not difficult, but now that your noodle shop has made you a lot of money, why did you have the intention of doing a silk business again? Lord Yuan...... Would he like to? "Lord Yuan is really good-looking, it's a pity that she got married young, although she doesn't hate this Mrs. Yuan in front of her, and even likes it a little, but Lord Yuan's handsome and mighty man is really too unforgettable.

"In this silk business, firstly, there are still some smart businessmen under my hands, so I don't want them to be buried, and secondly, no one will have a hard time with silver. As for my lord, he once told me that I should feel at ease and not have to be confined to the inner court. "Since Diancui has something to ask for, he is naturally full of sincerity, and he does not hide his thoughts.

"You're honest, and you're much more interesting than those pretentious inner house ladies." Miss Cui sighed: "You are really lucky, you are married to Lord Yuan, and you don't have to pay attention to the bad things in the inner house, just live how you want to live according to your own wishes." If only I could do the same for another day. ”

Miss Cui is straightforward, what she thinks in her heart, what she thinks on her face, the envy on her face makes Diancui a little helpless. This Miss Cui regarded her as a rival in love, and thought that she would be entered into the house one day and enjoy the treatment of a glance with her.

In the face of her naked "ambition", Diancui only felt angry and funny, but she couldn't hate the girl in front of her.

"I have two conditions for helping you this time." Miss Cui's eyes lit up and she said.

"Tell me about it." Diancui said helplessly.

"Don't worry, I didn't want you to reconcile with Lord Yuan." Miss Cui glanced at her.

Diancui almost squirted out a sip of tea, this girl is usually stunned when she listens to the play and looks at the drawing book, for that idea business, what else does this Miss Cui think!

"My conditions are very simple, first, in the future, Angelica Pavilion has to tell me first when it comes out with new head jewelry, and second, you have to allow me to go to your house to play, you let Qin Xiaolan play, and also invite Miss Mu Si to ...... I know you're guarding against me! ”

Miss Cui said that she was quite proud, and Diancui didn't let her go to the mansion, for fear that she would meet Master Yuan, because she was afraid of her charm!

When Dian Cui heard this, her expression was very complicated, how could she hinder her as a scheming and tender little girl. I had less contact with her before, but it was because I was afraid of the relationship between the Cui family and the second prince.

It's just that she is just a little girl in the Cui family who has not yet come out of the cabinet, and she has a close relationship with her, so what is there. Dian Cuiwaner smiled and said Okay, the day after tomorrow is free, I will invite you to come to my house to play.

"Okay, I'll go back today and do what you asked for." Diancui is so happy, and Miss Cui is even more happy.

The document of Jiangnan weaving the big red seal was stamped, and it arrived in Miaozhu's hands on the second day. Miaozhu only felt excited, went back to look at it and looked at it, and when the shopkeeper Liu came back from receiving the raw silk, Miaozhu showed it to him again, and told him about the arrangement of his wife. The shopkeeper Liu was overjoyed, and put away the raw silk and became more and more energetic.
