Mu Nanyun waved his hand and motioned for the shopkeeper and the chef to go out, but the shopkeeper was a person who knew the high and low, bowed and withdrew.

Before leaving, he glanced at Qu Xiaobai and Yang Ling disdainfully. The look in his eyes was very clear: how did such a countryman become a guest of General Mu?

Qu Xiaobai waited for the two of them to go out, put down his chopsticks, and said solemnly: "Since General Mu sincerely wants to talk about cooperation with me, then I won't hide it, and I will also tell General Mu what I think." ”

Mu Nanyun showed a hearty smile at this time: "I just like Mrs. Yang's cheerful temperament." I'm right, you must be a person who does great things! ”

Qu Xiaobai also smiled: "Don't say anything about praise, what kind of character I and I are like as a fool, I still have points in my heart." ”

She picked up the chopsticks, sandwiched a few pieces of meat into Yang Ling's plate, picked up a pie crust, wrapped a piece of meat with dipping sauce, and handed it to Yang Ling, "Brother Ling, it's delicious to eat like this." ”

She watched Yang Ling eat meat and was very happy, and then she continued to Mu Nanyun: "Actually, I originally wanted to open a ready-to-wear shop in this county, and since General Mu also wants to open it, then I won't fight with General Mu." But I have a few conditions. ”

"Mrs. Yang, please speak."

"First, the goods I supply to General Mu, General Mu can only sell them on the boundary of Nanping County, because I have to keep the right to sell in other places. If General Mu wants to obtain the right to sell elsewhere, he needs to obtain my consent and then pay a certain fee. ”

There was a smile in Mu Nanyun's eyes, but what was hidden behind the smile was unknown. He said, "This is a bit new. However, the style of these clothes made by Mrs. Yang is so novel, it is not an exaggeration to ask for such a request. Madame, please tell me about the second point. ”

"Second, in the store opened by General Mu, I can only sell my family's goods, not other people's goods, because the clothes I make are the most novel and unique styles in Nanping County, and the price is naturally the highest. Can General Mu do this? ”

"It's not hard. With Mrs. Yang's supply, I can't look down on other families. Is there a third? The corners of Mu Nanyun's mouth curled, and he smiled slightly.

Qu Xiaobai couldn't help but be amused by him, "Third, don't hide it from the general, I don't have any silver in my hands, second, I don't have manpower, and third, I don't have a suitable place to work for the embroidery girls." To be honest, I didn't cooperate with General Mu at first, because I was not qualified to cooperate with you, so I didn't dare to talk about it. ”

Mu Nanyun stared at her, "Then why dare you now?" ”

"I'm already so poor that I have no food to eat, I have to find a way to make money, General Mu, you look very sincere, and you have such a high status, I, a country woman, also want to climb high."

"Hahaha, funny, you're such a funny person. Okay, don't worry, I'll solve it for you, silver, I can give you a part of the deposit first. I can also solve it for you. ”

"Then thank you General Mu in advance. I hope the venue is in Huling Town, because it is close to my home and it is convenient for me to take care of it back and forth. ”

"It's not a problem, Huling Town is my territory."

Qu Xiaobai said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then invite Mr. Bookkeeper up, and let's set up a note as proof." ”

This is a world where power is everything, and this kind of thing may not be able to guarantee her legitimate rights and interests, but something is better than nothing, and signing it can be regarded as psychological comfort for herself.

Mu Nanyun clapped his hands, and a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man came in outside, dressed very neatly and looked very handsome, "Young master." ”

"Feng, you go and call the account room and bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone."

"Yes, young master."

The wind went out, and it didn't take much time, so the bookkeeper entered the room with a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, Qu Xiaobai dictated, and asked the bookkeeper to write down his conditions, and then asked Mu Nanyun: "What conditions does General Mu have, please tell me." ”

"My only condition, I am the only one in Nanping County, and even you can't open a semicolon anymore." Until now, Mu Nanyun has said such a sentence like a businessman.

"In the ready-to-wear section, I won't open a semicolon again. However......" Qu Xiaobai originally wanted to say that she would leave the right to sell in Huling Town, because she really didn't look down on the style of the shopkeeper of Yunxiang Yifang Li, and wanted to rectify him, but she immediately dispelled this idea, since she wanted to do business, she couldn't be rash, "It's okay, the right to sell in Nanping County belongs to you." ”

Mu Nanyun was very careful: "If Mrs. Yang has any ideas, just say it." ”

Qu Xiaobai shook his head: "No, so be it." ”

Mu Nanyun instructed the account office to add the last item, and then, the two of them confirmed that it was correct, stamped and signed and pressed their fingerprints, which was regarded as a signed note.

Mu Nanyun instructed the shopkeeper to serve the food, and suddenly smiled: "By the way, you said that if I go to sell it somewhere else, I have to pay a fee, then you won't charge it in Nanping County?" ”

Qu Xiaobai said: "I took a big advantage from General Mu, and if Nanping County asks for another fee, it will be too unreasonable." So be it. ”

By now, she couldn't see through this Mu Nanyun anymore.

Let's say that he has a picture for her, she doesn't know what he wants.

If he didn't plan to, he helped her like this, she should be a stranger.

And now it looks like he's going to do business.

Anyway, she didn't care what he wanted to do, since there were such favorable conditions in front of her now, if she didn't take advantage of it, then she would be a fool.

The shopkeeper served a table of dishes, Qu Xiaobai was already so hungry that her chest was close to her back, and when the dishes came up, she ate and drank the sea. Mu Nanyun asked for a pot of wine, she reluctantly drank a few glasses with him, and in the end, Mu Nanyun was left to pour himself a drink.

Qu Xiaobai slowly got acquainted with him and teased him: "Why don't you let Yang Ling have a few drinks with you?" ”

Yang Ling indifferently gnawed on a pig's foot.

The corners of Mu Nanyun's mouth twitched, "I'll drink it myself." ”

After eating and drinking, Mu Nanyun Mingfeng took one hundred taels of broken silver, plus one thousand taels of silver tickets to Qu Xiaobai, Qu Xiaobai was taken aback by this amount, "This...... General Mu, this is too much! ”

"General Ben is very close to you, you are in difficulty now, so I will pay you in advance for these, five hundred taels as a deposit, and the other six hundred taels, even if it is the cost I pay. Although you are very moral, General Ben does not take advantage of women, and the silver that should be given will not be given less at all. ”

He took out the majesty of a general, Qu Xiaobai had a trace of cowardice in his heart, and he didn't dare to refuse.

"It's done, let's go back, I'll find the manpower and venue when I get back, and I'll let someone inform you."

Qu Xiaobai nodded, said "yes", said goodbye to Mu Nanyun, went downstairs to find Han Weilin, and went on the road together.

Han Weilin drove the carriage, first went to the town to pick up Qu Xiaobai's cart, tied it to the back of the cart, and then sent them to the village, because the way to their hut could not go to the carriage, Qu Xiaobai went to find Zhao Yuan, and discussed that Zhao Yuan unload the cloth at his house.

Zhao Yuan and his wife were startled when they saw the cloth in the carriage, "Little white brother and sister, why did you buy so much cloth?" ”

"Brother Da Yuan, I took a big job, these cloths are all to make clothes, by the way, Brother Da Yuan, sister-in-law Da Yuan, let me discuss with you, the place where I live is too far away, and your house is also spacious, can you make clothes in your house these days?"

Zhao Yuandao: "Okay, no problem, my house is also spacious, my son Zhiwen is studying in the county, and he won't come back to live." ”

Zhao Yuanjia's eyes lit up: "Oh my God, how many clothes do you have to make here!" ”

"Sister-in-law Dayuan, we have a job to do this time. Let me tell you, the price of the clothes this time is quite high, and this time I will give you a raise. Qu Xiaobai was also very happy, and he spoke happily.

Zhao Yuanjia's eyes were all smiling: "My God, little white girl, you are too capable!" I'll go back and go to Aunt Zhu and everyone! ”

"Lao Yuan, you don't earn as much as me this time!"

Zhao Yuan was not annoyed by his daughter-in-law when he said this, but smiled and said, "That's good, you raise me." ”

"Phew, dead!"

"I flirt and scold in the daytime, my nephew and daughter-in-law are still here!" As he was talking, Yang Zhuzi's family, who lived not far away, also came.

"Auntie is here." Qu Xiaobai greeted with a smile.

"I heard from afar that you bought a big cart of cloth and came back, don't I come to take a look?"

Zhao Yuanjia said: "Yes, auntie, the little white brother and sister can make a fortune this time, let's also follow the light, these cloths are enough for us to work for a while!" ”

Qu Xiaobai said with a smile: "Where is this, there will be work every day in the future, auntie, sister-in-law Dayuan, we will never have to be poor again in the future." ”

"What else? Nephew and daughter-in-law, how much work have you taken on? ”

"Auntie, this time I cooperated with a ready-to-wear store in the county to supply all year round."

"Oh, that's a good feeling. Auntie is happy for you. ”

Everyone talked and laughed, and took off the cloth, Qu Xiaobai took out half a tael of silver from his pocket, walked up to Han Weilin, and said, "Han Dart, I have worked hard for you today, these silvers, not much, you can take them." ”

Han Weilin shirked: "Mrs. Yang, this can't be helped, if you say three hundred words, it is three hundred words, and I, Han Weilin, can't be without integrity." ”

"Han Darthead, if you don't want to go, you should be treated as a silver reward. As for me, I'm not very good at talking, and I have something wrong in the morning, so I'll admit my mistake to you. ”

Han Weilin's face was swollen and red, "Mrs. Yang, I'm a rough person, and I don't know what to say, here, I can't accept this silver." ”

"Han Darthead, you also saw it, I bought so much cloth today, in the future, there will be more, I can use Han Dart's head in many places, and I hope that Han Darthead can take care of it more." Don't be polite to me. ”

Han Weilin couldn't shirk it, so he had to take the silver, saying that there would be business in the future, and everyone would take care of each other, so he drove away.

Qu Xiaobai sent Han Weilin away, turned around and took Yang Zhuzi's hand, and said, "Auntie, I have a few words to tell you, you come into the house with me." ”
