Chapter 192: A Gentleman's Promise
After three days of rushing like this, Xiao Nuan was able to take a clear inventory of Ni Dress, leaving most of the manpower, so that all the treacherous ones were cleared, and the extra vacant seats were put on top of the people from the Ayaluo Fang that she had taught. Zhan Fu, the second shopkeeper of Ayaluo Fang, was promoted to the chief shopkeeper of Nishang Cloth Village, and the eleven guys he brought over also became small stewards, promoted and raised, and all of them were beaming.
Among these eleven people, including Lan Zichen, a female partner who is very familiar with Nishang Cloth Village, Lan Zichen, who has increased her salary and has become a small steward in charge of four or five people, still can't believe it when she returns to her home not far from Nishang, and the young man who was sitting at her tea stall watching Nishang drink tea a few days ago became the shopkeeper of Nishang in a blink of an eye.
After Zhao Shuyan learned that Xiao Nuan had successfully bought Nishang Cloth Village, he was surprised and pulled her to celebrate.
Qi Zhiyi, who was also pulled over by Zhao Shuyan, was shocked to drop his chopsticks when he heard that Xiao Nuan had really bought Ni Shang, "How is it possible!" ”
"Why can't it be?" Xiao Nuan smiled very proudly, after buying the neon clothes, the silk and the neon clothes were combined, and Jixian County was already her world!
"How can people sell such a profitable cloth village to you?"
Xiao Nuan told the story again, and then said, "So the next step is to help Brother Zhao sell the ship to the shopkeeper of Kelai Xiang." ”
After listening to this, Qi Zhiyi had to admire Xiao Nuan's clever use of this circle of serial schemes, "What is the origin of the owner of Kelaixiang, they open a restaurant, what is the use of buying a boat to run?" ”
Xiao Nuan was silent, and Zhao Shuyan replied, "The owner of Kelaixiang is a big business name in Chaozhou in the south, Qin Ji. ”
Qin Ji in Chaozhou should be a cover for Yan Sheng, this matter involves a lot, and Xiao Nuan is inconvenient to say it clearly.
Qi Zhiyi has never heard of Qin Ji, but if Zhao Shuyan can be called a "big business", the scale must not be small, "When they bought Ni Shang two years ago, they spent more than 8,000 taels, right?" ”
Xiao Nuan nodded, "Eight thousand five hundred taels." ”
"It is worthy of being a big business, and its courage is really extraordinary. The business that hasn't lost money is sold when it says it's sold. What do they do when they buy a boat to run? Qi Zhiyi asked again. Dengzhou Qi family does ship and embroidery business, Ganzhou Qin Ji bought the Zhao family's boat to run, in the future, the Qi family and the Qin family should have a deal to do, of course, to find out more news.
"The younger brother only heard that they were going to transport mountain goods and grain, and the specific younger brother didn't know." Xiao Nuan replied, she speculated that the third master bought a boat to run, but it was very useful, but it couldn't be said clearly.
Zhao Shuyan quipped, "Don't care about others, shouldn't Zixu's words be fulfilled?" ”
"What?" Xiao Nuan asked curiously.
Zhao Shuyan looked at his friend with a bitter gourd face, and his mood was quite smooth, "Two months ago, you Brother Qi said that you could win the Nishang Cloth Village before the end of the year, and he will give you the Qi family embroidery workshop." ”
Xiao Nuan was shocked, and there is such a thing?!
Qi Zhiyi laughed twice, and said strongly, "The gentleman is hard to chase after him, and he will be empty another day, and he will go to Dengzhou with the foolish brother and take it away?" ”
Zhao Shuyan lowered his head and smiled, but Xiao Nuan shook his head, "Of course the promise of a gentleman must be kept, but Brother Qi doesn't have to take the joke seriously." ”
Qi Zhiyi shook his head, "You don't know the big ...... of the foolish brother's embroidery room."
"Of course the Japanese war knows," she was not two months ago, these days Xiao Nuan collected the information of the surrounding big businesses, how could she not know the Dengzhou Qi family, who had been an embroidery imperial businessman, "It is because I know that the Japanese war can't ask for it, because even if it does, the Japanese war can't eat it." ”
Qi Zhiyi was slightly surprised, and then smiled lightly, "As a daughter's family, Brother Fool is very surprised to see this step. ”
"It's not a daughter's family if you wear this dress, and Brother Qi doesn't have to treat me as a little girl." Xiao Nuan Shulang smiled, "Speaking of the embroidery workshop, I really have one thing, I want to be cheeky and ask Brother Qi for help." ”
"You and my brother don't need to be polite, the Japanese war orders it." After this incident, Qi Zhiyi looked at Xiao Nuan more and more pleasing to the eye.
Xiao Nuan said very carefully, "There are also a few good embroidery girls in the little brother's Ayaluo workshop, but compared to the one in Brother Qi's embroidery workshop, it is a world of difference. I wonder if I can borrow a few embroiderers from my eldest brother's embroidery workshop, or I can send a few people to my eldest brother's embroidery workshop to study for a while? If it's inconvenient, it's okay for the eldest brother to talk about it, you and my brother don't damage the friendship for the sake of business. ”
The foundation of the embroidery workshop is the embroidery method and the exquisite craftsmanship of the embroidery girl, if Xiao Nuan's request is really discussed, it is really a bit abrupt, if there is no joke that just said that she wants to give the embroidery workshop, she will not mention it.
Qi Zhiyi did not respond directly, but asked, "Does the Japanese have any plans to be an imperial businessman?" ”
As soon as Xiao Nuan heard it, he knew that the Qi family still had the intention of competing for the imperial business, Qi Zhiyi was afraid that he would learn their craft, and there were many competitors, so he said with a smile, "The eldest brother really looks down on the younger brother too much, and the younger brother has no such intention." Not only not now, but never in the future. ”
"Why is that?" Qi Zhiyi asked again, "The Imperial Merchant represents the highest glory of the world's merchants, as well as countless gold and silver treasures. ”
"To be an imperial businessman, you must not only have money and ability, but also have relationships and dredge various channels, and you can earn a lot of money but also take a lot of risks. The Japanese were timid and unqualified, so they couldn't afford to do royal business. Xiao Nuan explained sincerely, "Besides, everyone in the world needs to be dressed, as long as the Japanese war does well, there will be no business." ”
After speaking, Xiao Nuan remembered that the third master was also a royal person, and doing business with him by himself was considered to be a transaction with the royal family? If you calculate carefully, it shouldn't be, after all, the third master is not the banner of the third prince.
Hearing her say this, Zhao Shuyan smiled with satisfaction, and Qi Zhiyi couldn't help nodding, "You won more than half of the cloth business in Jixian County in less than half a year, and it is rare to be so sober." In this way, you send ten people to the foolish brother's embroidery workshop to learn, in order to make up for your lack of manpower these days, the foolish brother will send ten more people to help you do things, as for how these people are used, it is up to you to decide. Except for my Qi family's unique embroidery method, you can do your best to do the rest. ”
Not only Xiao Nuan, but Zhao Shuyan was surprised by Qi Zhiyi's rare generosity.
Qi Zhiyi smiled, "You don't need to be so surprised, Zhiyi is blocking the future." If Zhiyi did not expect, three years later, in my Da Zhou cloth embroidery industry, Qin Rizhan's name will be known to everyone. The foolish brother is now giving a small favor and a small favor, and if he asks for something in the future, he will come to the door of the virtuous brother, so he can open his mouth, right? ”
Xiao Nuan got up and bowed and swept the floor, "Brother Qi's love for charcoal in the snow is unforgettable." If there really is that day, as long as it is what the Japanese war can do, I will do my best to help. ”
Qi Zhiyi's words were half sincere and half joking, but when he heard Xiao Nuan say this, he suddenly felt that he had made a very worthwhile deal: ten embroidery girls in exchange for a promise from Xiao Nuan.
Two years later, when the Qijia Building was about to collapse, it was Xiao Nuan's promise to keep today that allowed them to escape. This is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.
