Chapter 221: Competitors
Because it was the first day of opening, Gong Tianyao stayed until the store was about to close in the evening before planning to go back, in order to avoid people's eyes, she left through the small door behind the shop. As soon as she came out of the shop, she saw a carriage parked on the side of the road, so she didn't think much about it and walked straight over.
When the groom who had been waiting for a long time saw her, he hurriedly stepped forward and said respectfully: "Princess, the prince asked the servant to take you back." ”
Gong Tianyao was taken aback by him, and wondered when Song Zhao had become so considerate. But it just so happened that she was tired for a day, and it was not better to have a carriage, so she didn't shirk it, so she got into the carriage.
She bent over and just lifted the curtain, and when she saw that there was a person inside who was so startled that she almost didn't fall, she quickly looked back and looked around for fear that someone would notice them, and saw that no one was suspicious, so she hurriedly got into the carriage.
Song Zhao was indifferent throughout the whole process, and it seemed that he was not worried about being discovered at all, Gong Tianyao patted his chest and was shocked: "What are you doing here, what if someone finds out?" ”
"Don't worry about that." Song Zhao was very calm, but asked her, "Are you tired?" ”
Gong Tianyao lowered her head and smiled, and while beating her legs with her hands, she said, "Fortunately, it's He Yuan who is busy in the front, and I haven't done anything in the back." ”
"Since they are here, you don't have to bother so much in the future." Song Zhao's tone was casual, but Gong Tianyao disagreed: "That's not good, He Yuan is still young after all, I'm a little worried about letting him do it alone, it's better to keep an eye on it." ”
Song Zhao turned his face to look at her, and was speechless for a long time, Gong Tianyao was furious by him, touched his face and asked stupidly, "What's wrong, is there anything on my face?" ”
Song Zhao chuckled, Gong Tianyao felt even more depressed when she saw it, and frowned and said, "What's wrong?" ”
"Don't you know that all the people in the shop are mine? Are you still worried about the people of Nan'an Chamber of Commerce? Song Zhao said with a smile: "As long as you enter the Nan'an Chamber of Commerce and hang the Nan'an trademark, no one will dare to make a bad idea." ”
Gong Tianyao was a little surprised, she had heard about the Nan'an Chamber of Commerce by chance before, but at that time, Song Zhao was still a notoriously cowardly and incompetent person in the capital, and no one would associate him with such a big chamber of commerce, which was really surprising.
Gong Tianyao's admiration for Song Zhao in his heart was like a surging river, but he deliberately turned his head and snorted, and said: "What's the matter, this divine doctor is famous, and the Nan'an Chamber of Commerce has a talent like me, which adds a lot of glory!" ”
That arrogant look, not only does it not look annoying, but it is also a little likable. Song Zhao didn't say a word, Gong Tianyao said it well, the business of the shops under their chamber of commerce today is also very hot, and many guests are admiring it.
Seeing that Song Zhao didn't speak, Gong Tianyao's eyes rolled, and he immediately grabbed Song Zhao's arm, and was coquettish: "I have made such a contribution, should the prince say anything?" ”
Song Zhao didn't squint, he wasn't moved, he just asked lightly, "What do you want?" ”
Seeing that there was a play, Gong Tianyao lowered her head and smiled, quickly cleared her throat again, and said seriously: "For example, dividends or something, my requirements are not high, you just look at it." ”
said that he was overjoyed in his heart: Song Zhao has so many industries under his name, just give some to himself, I am afraid that Song Zhao will not agree, thinking of this, I secretly glanced at the look on Song Zhao's face, and secretly estimated in my heart whether there was any drama in this matter.
Song Zhao turned his head to meet her eyes, the icy coldness in a pair of ink pupils had disappeared, although he was still unsmiling, Gong Tianyao was shocked in his heart, and forgot what he was going to say.
Looking at the other party's eyes, Song Zhao's voice was determined: "Those are all yours, is this enough?" ”
Gong Tianyao was dumbfounded, and didn't come back to his senses for a long time, Song Zhao continued: "When I have time, this king will take you to the Chamber of Commerce to have a look, and let them meet the hostess of the Nan'an Chamber of Commerce." As he spoke, he raised Gong Tianyao's hand and clasped his fingers tightly with her, a flush flew on Gong Tianyao's face, and he was suspected of being cheap and obedient.
Seeing her like this, the corners of Song Zhao's lips rose, and he didn't speak anymore, but just held her hand tighter.
When the two returned to the palace, it was time for dinner, Gong Tianyao's stomach was already grumbling with hunger, and he sat down at the dining table for the first time to eat, Song Zhao always chewed and swallowed slowly, and the habits he had developed over the years had already been carved into his bones, but when he saw Gong Tianyao eating and drinking without regard to his image, he saw it in his eyes and felt that his appetite was good.
After eating and drinking, Gong Tianyao got up quickly and said to Song Zhao: "You eat slowly, I'll go back first." ”
"I'll send you back." Song Zhao put down his chopsticks, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and got up unhurriedly, Gong Tianyao hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You haven't eaten yet, I'll just go back by myself." ”
Song Zhao had already walked out and said in front: "I have already used it and have been waiting for you." ”
After speaking, the people in the dining room all bowed their heads and couldn't help laughing, Gong Tianyao was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly followed him out.
There is not much road from Dunyun Courtyard to Zhuyin Courtyard, and the two of them walked extremely slowly, if it was in normal times, Gong Tianyao arrived three or two steps earlier, but today I don't know why, I didn't notice it.
As soon as he raised his eyes, the front was there, the two stopped talking, Gong Tianyao lowered his head and rubbed the corners of his clothes, and hesitated: "Why don't you go in and have a cup of tea before leaving?" ”
"Let's go." Song Zhao seemed to be waiting for this sentence, Gong Tianyao was secretly happy, but she pretended not to care. When the two entered the room, Lianxin offered tea and withdrew, leaving the two sitting facing each other and not knowing what to say.
"Do you remember the Golden Incense Pavilion?" Song Zhao took a sip of tea and asked lightly when he put down the teacup.
Gong Tianyao was stunned, he didn't expect him to mention this, and after thinking about it, he did feel that something was wrong: in the past, the Jinxiang Pavilion was a popular vane sought after by the ladies of the capital, and as soon as a new product was launched, it would be turned upside down every time, and women could be heard discussing everywhere on the street.
But why hasn't there been any movement now?
Gong Tianyao's curiosity came, Baba looked at Song Zhao, leaned forward, and asked, "Remember, Xie Chengyan is not here, is the Golden Fragrance Pavilion closed?" ”
Song Zhao shook his head and said lightly: "I sent someone to investigate, the Golden Fragrance Pavilion is still in business, but it is much more low-key than before. ”
Gong Tianyao sighed with some regret: "That's really a pity, the Jinxiang Pavilion used to be outstanding in the capital, but I didn't expect it to be overtaken by other families so soon, but", speaking of which, she was even more curious: "I've been so busy lately, I don't have time to pay attention to these, what's the name of the new store?" It can be done so big in such a short time, and there is a lot of money behind it, right? ”
