Chapter 248: Cooperation
"Miss, it's getting late, let's rest early."
Returning to Linjiang again, Ah Xiu no longer let Du's mother and Du Juan serve in close proximity, and continued to let them help manage the affairs in the house and the embroidery workshop in the future, but Du's mother was still not at ease, and she wanted to take a look before going to bed.
Someone came, Ah Xiu carefully accepted the two letters, and smiled at Du's mother: "I know, let's go to sleep." ”
She got off the ground with a smile, and Mother Du hurriedly stepped forward to support the person, thought for a while and asked, "Miss, do you have any ideas over there of the Xie family?" ”
At the beginning, when she went to the Song family to see Song Tian, Du's mother was still a little dissatisfied, but the scar on his face was removed, and he could take the top prize in the future, so she had nothing to say, but the marriage of the Xie family had to be handled well, so as to save any trouble.
"I went to He's house to talk about this before, let the second lady come forward for me to withdraw the marriage, don't worry about this."
Mother Du nodded, "That's fine." ”
went to the inner room, Du's mother pressed the quilt corner for Ah Xiu, and quickly withdrew.
After a while, the little maid who kept vigil came in and was about to put out the lights, when she heard Ah Xiu say, "Wait first." ”
"Yes."
The little maid thought that she wanted to go to the toilet or drink water, but she saw that the master hung up the curtain and secretly read a letter with her.
The little maid was very knowledgeable and silently retreated to the outside.
Ah Xiu read the two letters three times from beginning to end, and finally pressed them under the pillow to let the little girl blow the lamp and rest.
But she couldn't sleep for a long time, and the love words on the letter teased her nerves, and her heart was numb, and there was no trace of sleepiness at all.
"Forget it, let's go back after these things, at least take a look at Brother Tian......"
The night before, he was very excited, and the next day Ah Xiu slept until the third pole of the day.
When she woke up, she was stunned, but fortunately, she has the final say in the house now, and no one cares about her even if she sleeps until noon.
Ah Xiu hurriedly washed up and ate something, and then took people to the embroidery building.
Cao Yi was there, and I just told her about He Wenyun's coming over yesterday.
He Wenyun came over, and Ah Xiu could probably guess what was going on, it was nothing more than seeking cooperation.
A smile hung on the corner of Ah Xiu's mouth.
The He family, who has lost the name of benevolence and righteousness, should have been a little difficult in business recently, there was competition in the fiber embroidery industry before, and now there is their own squeezing, and then they don't put down their bodies to find some way, and the business is afraid that it will plummet.
In this way, Ah Xiu asked people to go to He Mansion to spread the word and let He Wenyun come over tomorrow morning.
But before that, she first had to meet Wei Zhou from the fiber embroidery shop.
In the afternoon, Wei Zhou arrived as scheduled, and the two sat down in the private room on the second floor.
"Third son, what you said last time, have you thought it through there?"
In the thick of the water, Ah Xiu poured a cup of tea for him and asked.
Wei Zhou looked at her in a trance, obviously she was just a half-grown girl who had just turned fourteen, and the cooperation plan proposed was actually to give up the Zhuojia embroidery workshop they got back then.
When the Zhuo family had an accident, the embroidery workshops obtained by the fiber embroidery dealer were bought back in the hands of the money bankers, and now let them let them out, how can they be willing.
On the surface, this business must be a loss for their Wei family.
But if you don't cooperate with the Zhuo family, the problems they face are equally thorny.
The influence of this little girl in front of them and the turmoil are increasing day by day, they only have a little impact on shipments and prices before, and the high-end yarn and various large items have been stagnant.
Those people would rather wait in line at Zhuo's side than buy their goods anymore, and they always felt that this was a very bad thing.
On the day the embroidery building opened, Wei Zhou came in to see it, if it was him, he saw these exquisite things, and then went to see his own, he couldn't buy it.
"My eldest brother has agreed, if Miss Zhuo has no objection, let's sign the deed sometime."
Take out the embroidery workshops of the Zhuo family back then, and the fiber embroidery shop will be beaten back to its original shape.
However, if you take those embroidery workshops out, you can exchange a cooperation contract with Zhuo's, and the business in the Beijing area will be exclusively handed over to them to operate in the future.
It is understandable that she wants the embroidery workshop before the Zhuo family, but in order to give up the business in Beijing, Wei Zhou can't figure it out, there is a gold cave over there, and it has always been a place of importance, so she gave up like this?
The Wei family agreed, this was expected by Ah Xiu, after all, compared with struggling, it was easier to take the exclusive right of the Zhuo family to go to Beijing, and the silver would not be less.
She smiled and said, "In this way, invite the eldest prince of Wei to come tomorrow afternoon, and we can sign the deed." ”
Wei Zhou nodded, thought for a while and asked, "What are your plans to give up the land in Shangjing?" ”
Looking at the person in front of him, Wei Zhou couldn't help but want to ask a few more words.
Ah Xiu smiled lightly, "When the family was broken, I was already pessimistic about fame and fortune, and now I want to fulfill the last wishes of the Zhuo family, take back those embroidery workshops back then, and give an explanation to the ancestors." ”
She said it easily, but Wei Zhou didn't believe it.
But people don't want to talk about this kind of thing, and it's pointless to ask.
In the evening, Ah Xiu went to the new embroidery workshop, took a look at the people who came over, and said a few words.
The people from River Town knew her, and when they met again, they chatted a few words.
The embroidery workshop built by the Zhuo family here is on the outskirts of the city, and the place was found a few months ago, and the house has been repaired and covered, and the conditions are definitely better than those in Hekou Town.
When those people heard that Song Ercai was leaving tomorrow and was going back, they asked people to write letters to ask him to take them back.
In short, they are living very well here, the master of the yard has prepared for him in advance, a family only received twenty taels of silver, and they have all been registered, and they will be regarded as city people in the future, and they have errands, they don't have to worry about food and clothing, and they no longer have to face the loess and turn their backs to the sky.
Those people also persuaded in the letter that those who wanted to come should come over and live a good life.
Early the next morning, Song Ercai took a group of shipwrights and guards to start the return journey.
This time, Song Ming also went back with him, the embroidery workshop and silkworm garden here have been completed, and he wants to go back to take care of the embroidery workshop and business in Hekou Town.
Song Ercai has already talked to him, and the business over there will be handed over to him in the future, and he will be given dividends from profits every year.
For this reason, Ah Xiu also handed him a manuscript drawing, which showed more than a dozen sets of stitches needed in Hekou Town.
Song Ming was very grateful for the trust of the two of them in him, and swore that he would never have two hearts in this life, and he would manage the rear for them well.
Early in the morning, Ah Xiu went to the ferry to see them off, and asked Song Ercai to bring back two boxes of medicinal materials for Chang's body recuperation.
is a family, so Song Ercai is not welcome.
When he was about to get on the boat, Ah Xiu stopped him again.
"Dad, I'll go to Liangzhou when I'm done with these things in the past few days."
She was going to see her son, Song Er was a little surprised, and then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you over there with Brother Tian." ”
