Chapter 158: A Trip to Lianzhou City
Knowing that it was Qian's mother who had indeed ordered these fabrics, Qian Qianqian went to Lianzhou City non-stop.
The largest cloth village in Lianzhou City is the Tianyue cloth village under Mu Tianyue, and the proprietress of the ready-to-wear shop should have purchased from there, and she can't take out more than 2,000 taels of silver now, so ...... can only put the abacus on Mu Tianyue.
Mu Tianyue was in the restaurant, so uncomfortably in the window on the second floor, looking at the street downstairs full of his own industry, cold, in the colorful crowd saw Qian Qianqian wearing a pink dress, the little face was pale and tired.
"Money girl!"
Qian Qianqian looked up and saw that Mu Tianyue beckoned to her on the second floor, Qian Qianqian smiled smiling, smiling weirdly, Mu Tianyue's scalp was numb, and she only felt that there was nothing good.
Sitting down from the first to the second floor, Qian Qianqian looked down from the second floor, and the conspicuous Tianyue brand was scattered on the street, and Qian Qianqian was envious and happy in her heart.
She curled her lips and smiled, flattering: "Boss Mu's industry really involves all aspects, not that we small businessmen can compare, and then look at Boss Mu's face, heaven is full, ears are round, and the blessing is not small, I am afraid that the industry can expand and expand in the future." ”
Thick ears? Mu Tianyue was born with a cold appearance, although he was a businessman, he didn't see the cheesiness of a businessman, and his face was like an unkind person, not to mention that his earlobes were thin, and even his lips were thin.
He glanced at her, and his tone was not very polite: "I haven't seen her for a few days, Miss Qian is not long, but her ability to open her eyes and talk nonsense is impressive." ”
Qian Qianqian smiled, and did not forget the purpose of coming today: "Although the words are a bit exaggerated, but every sentence is true, Boss Mu's industry is wide, if you add more strength, it is not impossible to add new industries." ”
Again and again, I want him to add new things to the Mu family's industry, if Qian Qianqian has no purpose, Mu Tianyue will not believe it.
"Anyway, what do you think?"
"Boss Mu, look down, the people who come and go on the street, regardless of men, women and children, no matter how good or bad the clothes they wear, most of the fabrics are from the hands of the Mu family, but none of them are made by the Mu family themselves."
Qian Qianqian paused, stretched out her hand pointing back at the street, and asked sincerely, "Don't you think it's a pity for Boss Mu?" ”
"What do you mean?" Mu Tianyue took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and looked at Qian Qianqian.
Qian Qianqian offered advice in a timely manner: "Why don't we cooperate in the name of the Mu family and open a few more ready-to-wear shops?" ”
Mu Tianyue's face did not change when he heard this, but he shook his head lightly, the Mu family has its own cloth village and embroidery girl, but why it has not been involved in ready-to-wear is actually for a reason.
"When my father was young, he had a good friend, who was also in Lianzhou City, and opened a ready-to-wear shop and made a living selling clothes. He was in business at the same time as my father, but the man chose a ready-to-wear shop, and my father was a restaurant, and later in order to help the man, he started a cloth village. ”
Mu Tianyue sighed, and also felt a little regretful: "So in order not to rob that person's business, the Mu family has always avoided the ready-to-wear industry." ”
Qian Qianqian wondered, why didn't she hear of which garment shop had a great relationship with the Mu family: "Which garment shop are you talking about?" ”
"The one in the south of the city." Mu Tianyue pointed in the direction of the south of the city.
Qian Qianqian's eyebrows jumped: "Chengnan? ”
"Well, that's right." Mu Tianyue could almost guess what Qian Qianqian was surprised about.
Qian Qianqian pursed her lips and said tactfully: "His family's business doesn't seem to be very good." ”
Mu Tianyue shook his head: "It's not, I heard someone say two days ago that it hasn't opened for half a month." ”
Qian Qianqian was still puzzled: "Since you are not good at business, and you have to lose money if you can't sell clothes when the store is open, why don't you sell the store directly and stop the loss in time?" ”
"I don't know." Mu Tianyue shrugged, but how could she come to talk to him about suitable things for no reason, Mu Tianyue's intuition was wrong, and she looked at Qian Qianqian with a smile: "I've said it all here, Miss Qian might as well tell me, what is it for you to come to Lianzhou City to find me?" ”
"Naturally, it's to work with you." Qian Qianqian's face was determined.
How could she tell Mu Tianyue that the mother in the family owed the debt, she originally wanted to take the opportunity to cooperate with Mu Tianyue, so that she could take advantage of the situation to treat the more than 2,000 taels of cloth as Mu Tianyue's funds, and she would do the rest, and when it came to profit, she would share it with Mu Tianyue according to the shares.
But now he can't participate in the ready-to-wear shop, and everything has to start again.
Thinking of the three thousand purses again, Qian Qianqian had a headache for a while, and sometimes when she thought about it, it was better to burn the piles of things with a fire.
But Qian Qianqian is a money-loving person, not to mention three thousand purses, she is reluctant to waste even one of them.
Qian Qianqian was upset, and casually looked at the flow of people coming and going on the street: "It's just a whimsical idea of a ready-to-wear shop, and there is nothing going on in the town, so I will come to Lianzhou City to discuss with you, since it doesn't work, then I'll go back." ”
After saying that, he withdrew his eyes and was about to get up and leave, Mu Tianyue hurriedly stopped: "Eh, Miss Qian, you haven't told me about the progress of the rice, how is it recently?" ”
Qian Qianqian was secretly annoyed that she had forgotten all the important things, and turned around and said embarrassedly: "It's about to be planted, you can rest assured." ”
After speaking, he walked out of Tianyue Restaurant.
Behind him-
Mu Tianyue's eyebrows drooped, and he thoughtfully ordered: "You follow the town to inquire about the news and see what happened." ”
The little guy got the order and followed Qian Qianqian away.
The weather was surprisingly good, cloudless, and everyone's face was clean, the skin was in the light, and every fluff was glowing.
Qian Qianqian frowned, she had been out for a long time, she didn't realize it in the restaurant just now, but now she came out and held down her stomach that made a gurgling sound.
If you're hungry, you have to eat.
But after looking around, Qian Qianqian sadly found that she didn't even have a single money to eat in the restaurant, just enough to eat a bowl of noodles on the side of a simple street.
The noodles are boiled noodles with clear soup and little water, and the store looks pitiful to Qian Qianqian, so the noodles are scooped up from the pot, sprinkled with a little red chili powder, a little shredded green onion, a little ginger and garlic, and finally drizzled with a spoonful of hot oil.
The sound of sizzling oil bursts out the rich aroma of chili powder, green onions, ginger and garlic, and in an instant, the bustling streets are filled with the rich and spicy flavor unique to oily noodles.
The shopkeeper brought the oily noodles up, his eyebrows and eyes were kind, and he said to Qian Qianqian: "Eh, the little girl is out of the house, but she doesn't wait to treat herself, she still has to eat better." ”
Qian Qianqian was surprised that the clear soup noodles she ordered turned into oily noodles: "Uncle, are you wrong?" ”
The shopkeeper rubbed his hands on the blue cloth towel: "That's right, that's right, little girl, eat it." ”
Qian Qianqian thanked the store, tasted two mouthfuls of oily noodles, and was full of praise: "The store has good craftsmanship, I haven't eaten such delicious noodles for a long time." ”
There is competition everywhere in Lianzhou City, even if it is a small stall, that craft is one of the best in the entire Lianzhou City.
People have tricky tastes, who is good, who is not good, you can eat one, two or three at a time, and if the craftsmanship is not good, it will not be long before it will be eliminated.
The shopkeeper likes to be praised by others, and it seems that this continuous praise indicates that his business has been going on for a long time and customers are continuous.
It was past the time to eat, there were few people at this time, and the store was not busy, so he simply stood next to him and chatted with Qian Qianqian.
"I see that you are still young, why did you go out alone and come to Lianzhou City to do something?"
The shopkeeper looked down and caught a glimpse of the mud on Qian Qianqian's shoes, this is not something that should appear on the shoes of people living in Lianzhou City, it seems that this girl probably came from another township outside Lianzhou City.
Qian Qianqian came by ox cart, and some places along the way were slippery and muddy, and it was inevitable that there would be some mud.
She noticed the shopkeeper's gaze, but she was still not timid, and her two feet should land where they should still land, and she did not retreat for half a minute.
She sucked the noodles and said, "I wanted to come to Lianzhou to see if there were any new and beautiful clothes, but my family didn't agree, so I had to come alone." ”
Qian Qianqian didn't tell the store the truth, but the store really believed her words, lowered her voice and avoided humanity: "Then you have to pay attention, this is even in the state city, which garment shop can buy clothes, but the Li family in the south of the city can't buy it." ”
Qian Qianqian didn't care much, the one in the south of the city was expensive, and there were too many old styles, so she really couldn't buy it.
Seeing that she didn't pay attention to her attitude, the shopkeeper suddenly became anxious, and couldn't help but raise his voice and said: "That's a shop selling dog meat with a sheep's head, you are a little girl's family, but you must be careful!" ”
Qian Qianqian was startled, raised her head and asked, "Selling dog meat with a sheep's head?" ”
"Shh The voices of the two attracted the attention of many people, the shopkeeper's index finger was put on his mouth, Yu Guang looked around nervously, and after making sure that there were no people in the shop in the south of the city, he whispered: "It is said that the Li family's ready-to-wear shop in the south of the city, the clothes can't be sold a few times a year, but a lot of silver is put into the pocket, which is not normal and clean, but I don't know what it does." ”
After eating a bowl of noodles unconsciously, Qian Qianqian put two more coins on the table: "Thank you, uncle, I'll pay attention." ”
Leaving the place where the noodles were eaten, Qian Qianqian did not have such a strong curiosity to go to the Li family in the south of the city to explore, but returned to the town as originally planned.
After not seeing her for a few hours, as soon as Qian Qianqian returned to the hot pot restaurant, she saw Xiao Mo sitting there with a cold face, very unhappy.
There was a lot of noise outside, and Qian Qianqian closed the door when she came in, and none of the doors completely isolated the sound, but it was a little quieter.
"Where have you been?"
Qian Qianqian was stunned by the question, stopped and said truthfully: "I've gone to Lianzhou City." ”
Instantly, the surrounding atmosphere condensed.
"Did you go to find Mu Tianyue?" Xiao Mohan asked in a deep voice.
"Why not?" Qian Qianqian was not surprised that Xiao Mohan could guess her whereabouts, but his tone was not good, but it turned Qian Qianqian's heart into anger.
"You're looking for him for money." Xiao Mohan was unspeakably stinging, his hands were clenched into fists and placed on the table hard, countless emotions were suppressed and rolled in his heart several times, and finally turned into a sentence of helpless disappointment: "Would you rather beg him for help than believe me?" ”
