Chapter Forty-Nine: The Return of Glory
Chu Yue raised her eyes and looked carefully at the man's smiling eyes, but she really couldn't see through him: "Why can't anything escape your eyes?" β
Just as she was praising herself, Xie Siyun also raised her chin slightly proudly: "This is natural." β
Just as the two of them were chatting, they saw a small guy who was supposed to be in the Fat Cooking Workshop hurriedly ran in from the door of the stockade: "Something's wrong, there's an accident!" β
I stayed in the Fat Shop for the first three days, and Chu Yue also recognized this little guy. He seems to have been by Yao Qingyan's side for a long time, and he has won Yao Qingyan's trust.
Running over in such a hurry at this moment naturally made the big boss and the second boss all nervous: "Is something wrong with Qingyan?" What's going on?! β
The little guy took a few breaths before he raised his head: "No, Miss didn't have an accident." It's our shop that has an accident! β
It turned out that yesterday's things were sold too quickly, and everyone went back yesterday and found that they were all good, so early this morning, the general's mansion and the Yuanwai mansion sent two more mothers-in-law and maids to purchase.
The outer house is the first door, indicating that many of the pearl powder "invented" in the early moon mixed with nectar masks.
Because this time Chuyue and Xie Siyun brought a total of pearl powder, so in fact, the stock is not much. Yao Qingyan took out some, but before he could hand it to the mother-in-law of the Yuanwai Mansion, the people from the General's Mansion came.
As soon as they entered, they drove away all the people who were buying in the shop, saying that they wanted to buy all the rouge gouache in the shop, especially all kinds of pearl powder.
Naturally, others don't dare to say anything, who makes people rich?
But the people from the foreign government are not afraid of the general's mansion, saying that they came first, and they must take their share.
They bought a lot, and the general's mansion was naturally unwilling, so they came and went, and the maids and women on both sides actually made a mess!
As a result, after Yao Qingyan asked people to pull them away, they actually dumped the mess to Yao Qingyan and asked her to make a choice.
When did Yao Qingyan encounter such a thing? For a while, the six gods had no master, so they could only send someone to hurry up and ask Chuyue to make a decision.
Chu Yue shrugged at Zeng Haiqi and the big boss who came out: "Look, I can't do it without me." So it's not hard for me to ask for so much, right? β
"Humph!"
Zeng Haiqi looked at Chu Yue's eyes, and turned into such a hostile appearance again: "It's just a multiple-choice question, what's so difficult?!" Of course, it's the general's mansion! β
Indeed, the general is in charge of the military affairs of the entire Dongzhou, and it seems that he should be chosen.
It's just that......
"If this is a multiple-choice question, then you have offended all the officials and dependents of Dongzhou City except for the General's Mansion."
Chu Yue raised her eyes confidently: "They will feel that if they also encounter such a domineering general's mansion one day, the condensation fang must be thinking about the general's mansion." There are so many rouge gouache shops in Dongzhou City, they can't do it without a fat shop, but at that time, what should you do? β
"Yes, yes!"
Even the bigwigs who looked honest felt the seriousness of this matter: "If those people from the General's Mansion have driven away the other people who came to buy rouge gouache today, this is not appropriate." If that's the case again, I'm afraid no one will be willing to come to my sister's place to buy things in the future. β
Zeng Haiqi scratched his head, and Fang Cai's arrogance also disappeared a little: "That...... How? Elect a foreign house? β
Chu Yue smiled slightly: "This is not a multiple-choice question. Although you refuse to give me five cents, it should be regarded as a face for Qingyan, and this time I will teach you how to do it. β
She turned her head to look at the little guy and continued, "You go and tell Qingyan to divide all the rest of the shop today to the General's Mansion and the Yuanwai Mansion. Then he deliberately asked Qingyan to give face to the General's Mansion in front of everyone, and told them what they needed in the future, and handed over a list to Fangzhong, so that their people didn't have to make a trip, and our people would send it to them. Then he stabilized the people of the Yuanwaifu first, and asked Qingyan, the shopkeeper, to send the people from the General's Mansion out first, confirm that they all went back, and then turn back to the shop. β
As she spoke, she also gestured on the ground with her toes: "After turning back to the shop, tell the people in the outer house that they have been wronged today, and give them compensation." Then he told them that in the future, they would be the same as the general's mansion, if they wanted something, they would go to someone, and the condensation workshop would definitely prepare in advance and then send it to the mansion for them. Let Qingyan take out some of the pearl powder masks in stock and give them to the people in the outer house as an apology, but don't take the best, the inferior ones will be fine. β
After thinking about it carefully, Chu Yuefu said again: "In the end, the remaining people in the shop can't let them chill, and they also let Qingyan apologize in person, and then no matter what they buy today, they will give them more discounts." As for the strength of the discount, let Qingyan decide for himself. β
Now the General's Mansion and the Yuanwai Mansion have not reached the point of tension, but it is just a dispute between the mother-in-law and the maid, as long as they know which mansion is not looked down upon, even if both parties are not offended. The subordinates will not really make trouble with the master for this little thing, then it will be a loss of face!
After the little guy wrote it down, he was a little stunned.
It was the big boss who urged him, and he hurriedly ran back to Dongzhou City.
"Hmph-"
It was Zeng Haiqi, who snorted coldly again: "You can't offend anyone!" β
Chu Yue Ben was praising himself: "If you open the door to do business, if you are desperate to offend the guests, how many can there be for a long time?" β
The big boss also pulled Zeng Haiqi, but made a decision directly: "Today, I saw Madame's ability, and I admired the five-body throw." That being the case, I agreed to Madame's terms. In the future, the condensation workshop will be operated by Mrs. and Qingyan together, and I hope that Mrs. will do her best. β
That's it?
Chu Yue thought that she had to solve one more thing!
"Big brother!"
Zeng Haiqi still disagreed, and even became a little anxious: "None of the women of their Xie family are good, and you believe them again and again so easily?!" β
Was this hurt by the women of the Xie family?
But no matter what Zeng Haiqi is, the matter is already a foregone conclusion.
Just in case, Chu Yue even asked Xie Siyun to write a paper deed, and after both parties signed and drew the deed, it could be regarded as a real count.
They have been in Dongzhou City for a long time, so although Lepingzhai accepts them cheaply, Xie Siyun still sold the pearls according to the requirements of the Xie family, and then took the first moon to leave.
On the way back, even if she was still facing people all over the place, Chu Yue's mood was much better than when she came: "Xie Siyun, let's talk about it, no matter how much pearl powder is produced, it will only be supplied to the condensation workshop for the next year." β
The first is to make the Fat Kitchen temporarily monopolized, and the other is to show the demand for their Xie family's pearl powder. She doesn't care how to learn from the other places, but within the scope of this Dongzhou generation, she just wants to make the Fat Shop the lowest price, but the best thing. After all, if you want to get pearl powder in the Dongzhou area, the fastest way is from Pearl Village.
When the carriage and horses returned to Pearl Village, it was rare to see the Xie family's big house and second room waiting for them at the gate of the village!
As soon as I got out of the car, I saw the few people in the second room rushing up with tears streaming down their faces: "Oh, it's really Amitabha Buddha to see that you're okay!" You went to Dongzhou City here, but you suffered a lot of difficulties! It's good that people are fine, it's good that people are okay! β
Chu Yue watched them act like this, lowering her eyes and looking down, just not wanting them to see the mocking smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Heyβ"
Dafang also sighed and stepped forward, pretending to pat Xie Siyun, who couldn't help coughing, on the shoulder: "I never thought that the bandits outside Dongzhou City would be so rampant now!" Si Yun, you are too young. Now that the Xie family's good pearls have been handed over to the bandit, your grandfather will definitely be angry. After you go in with me later, just stand behind me and don't say anything, let your grandfather lose his temper, and you will hand over the pearl field to your grandfather, which will soothe some of the anger in his heart, understand? β
Originally...... It's the idea of the pearl field!
Chu Yue took Xie Siyun's arm with her hand, and heard Xie Siyun's weak voice say, "I don't know...... What are the uncles talking about? What bandits? Who's okay? We haven't seen that there are bandits in Dongzhou City! β
This man is so boring, he has a showdown with them so soon!
The faces of the second room of the big house changed instantly, and they looked at each other, not believing what Xie Siyun said: "Oh, you kid, we have already gotten the news!" I know you're afraid that we're worried, but you can't say that about such a big deal! Even if you say that there are no bandits, and then your grandfather asks you to sell the silver taels of pearls, and you can't take them out? He's only going to get angrier! β
Xie Siyun raised his head and looked at the big room that spoke, his eyes were a little colder: "What does Uncle mean by this?" The silver was kept in our carriage, but the eldest uncle insisted that we had been robbed. There are robbers outside Dongzhou, but I've heard that they only rob the rich and give to the poor. Could it be that the eldest uncle thinks that our Xie family is such a rich family that is embarrassed by evil, so we have to be robbed by them? β
In a few words, Xie Honghui's face turned blue and white for a while.
He put down the hand on Xie Siyun's shoulder, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Xie Siyun took this opportunity to continue: "Or did the eldest uncle do something by himself, so he was sure that we would be robbed?" I heard that the second aunt's family seems to have some relationship with Leping Village outside Dongzhou City, could it be that this matter is also related to the second uncle and second aunt? β
