Hearing this, Xiao Man and Hua Li glanced at each other, and then nodded in response: "According to the contract, this is indeed the case. ”

"If that's the case, I'll have to think again." Shopkeeper He frowned, turned sideways and whispered to Mrs. He.

When it came to the present, Xiao Man suddenly became a little nervous. When he came yesterday, Shopkeeper He said that everything was very happy, and it was only a matter of a moment to agree to cooperate, but when it was time to sign the contract today, he hesitated, which had to make Xiaoman a little suspicious.

Even yesterday, Shopkeeper He was carried away by excitement, and then he should have reacted that the object he wanted to cooperate with was Huali.

After all, Xiaoman is still in the vicissitudes of life, and there is no way to take care of all the affairs in Beijing, if the shopkeeper wants to continue to sell the clothes of the Rou Ready-to-wear Shop in the future, then he has to sign a contract with Huali, the person in charge of the caravan, so as to ensure a steady stream of goods.

However, even though it was Holley who signed the contract with him, the person who provided the goods was Manrou Garment Factory, so what was there to hesitate about?

Seeing that the two were still discussing, Xiao Man couldn't sit still, so he couldn't help but get up and leave He's house, and after saying a word, he turned around and went to Hao Yixuan.

Yesterday came in a hurry, and because He's father and mother were too enthusiastic, Xiaoman couldn't take a serious look at the clothes in the store, while He's parents were still discussing the contract, she took this opportunity to come out and have a look, and also learned a lot about the local clothing market in Bei'an Ducheng.

As soon as Xiao Man walked into the store through the back door, he greeted a young man and said with a smile: "County Lord, do you need a little one to help you introduce you?" ”

The other party looks like he is in his twenties, and the action time is quite neat, but Xiao Man, who has been here once yesterday, looked at the other party very much, and she couldn't help asking: "Were you not there when I came yesterday?" How do you never seem to have seen you? ”

Xu is doing a lot of business, and he needs to remember the appearance and preferences of each regular customer, Xiaoman has almost practiced the unforgettable nature, but it is only for the face.

The young man was a little flustered when he heard this, but quickly reacted: "The little one is the guy who just came today, and the county lord has never seen normal." ”

"I see." Xiao Man nodded, and then smiled: "I'll just see for myself, you can go and get busy with the rest first." ”

After saying that, the young man walked away and went to the side to get busy.

As He Miao said, the few sample clothes hanging in the store have a constant thickness and price, but because there are many sample styles visited in the store, they cannot be priced simply by thin and thick.

For example, some styles are very complex, and the fabrics used in them look exquisite, even if they are thinner, but they are more than twice as expensive as those thicker clothes, after all, in Canglan, the fabric is much more expensive than animal skins.

The clothes in the store range from the lowest three taels to the most expensive dozens of taels, and each sample looks extremely exquisite, and regardless of the raw materials, the workmanship is indeed more exquisite than the other.

It is no wonder that Hao Yat Xuan can become the most popular store in Bei'an City, which is inseparable from the quality of clothes.

Just as he was thinking about it, a voice came from the back door: "Madam, Shopkeeper He has already discussed it with Madame." ”

Xiao Man hurriedly stopped when he heard the sound, followed the footsteps of the little guy to He's house, sat down again, and said with a smile: "I heard that Shopkeeper He has thought about it?" How's that, can I sign a contract? ”

After finishing speaking, Xiao Man specially showed a most friendly smile, looked at each other quietly, and waited for the answer of Shopkeeper He.

"County Lord, this contract you have written is indeed very good." Shopkeeper He stood in front of Xiao Man, although he was still respectful, but his attitude was obviously not as amiable as yesterday, Xiao Man faintly noticed something, but before she could speak, Shopkeeper He said again: "However, our original idea was to cooperate with you, but now it has been replaced by Lord Huali, the county lord, forgive us for not being able to accept it." ”

As he spoke, Shopkeeper He handed over the contract with both hands, lowered his head slightly, and did not dare to accept Xiao Man's gaze.

Xiao Man was completely stunned, he didn't expect the change to come so quickly.

I thought that the matter of cotton clothes could be solved like this, but I didn't expect that how could things get stuck at this step again......

She frowned, her eyes full of disbelief, she stared at the other party's slightly lowered head, and asked, "Shopkeeper He, what's going on?" Didn't we say it all right yesterday? It's only been one night, why did you change your mind? ”

"County Lord, please don't embarrass us!" Mrs. He suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Man's wrist, with a hint of crying in her voice: "We can't help it, it's just a small business, we can't take such a big order, and I beg you not to embarrass us!" ”

Xiao Man was even more surprised, and hurriedly defended: "Why is this embarrassing for you?" Mrs. He, you said this....."

As she was talking, Xiao Man suddenly felt that the hand held by Mrs. He was stuffed into a ball, she couldn't help but slow down the speed of speaking, and when she raised her head and was about to ask why, she saw Mrs. He staring at herself with round eyes, the eyes were full of fear and nervousness, Xiao Man even saw a trace of unbearability from the other party's pupils.

She suddenly came back to her senses, quietly clutched the note that Mrs. He had stuffed in, and then continued to finish Fang Cai's words: "You are too selfish to say this, right? These clothes were shipped from Shangjing to Bei'an, if it weren't for Lord Huali, even if I signed a contract with you, but now that I'm in the vicissitudes of life, I can't provide you with goods at all!"

"The county lord doesn't have to say these high-sounding words!" Mrs. He took a step back, turned her face away, and said: "Our own business is doing well, we promised so happily yesterday, we just thought we wanted to cooperate with the county lord, but we didn't want the county lord to change people today, we can't accept it, so please go back!" ”

Hearing this, Hua Li was about to rush up to explain, but was stopped by Xiao Man, she shook her head, and said in a deep voice: "If the shopkeeper doesn't want to cooperate, then we don't have to force it." ”

After speaking, she dragged Hua Li with more strength, "Let's go, go back and think of other ways." ”

"Xiaoman!" Hua Li was anxious, and blurted out her name, Hua Li, who only reacted as soon as he said it, hurriedly covered his mouth, and then took it away angrily, and said helplessly: "County Lord, if we miss this opportunity, then-"

"Then we'll have another way!" Xiao Man accentuated his tone and commanded unquestionably: "Follow me!" No matter what happens, there will always be a solution! ”

This sentence is not only to persuade Holley, but also to remind Mr. and Mrs. He that no matter what happens, there is always a solution. They are very intelligent, and if they can think of conveying a message to themselves with a note, they will surely understand the meaning of their words.

Sure enough, after Xiao Man said this, Mrs. He, who had turned her face away, really trembled slightly, and her head looked like she was about to turn around, but Xu was taboo about someone in this room, and her reaction ended here, and she couldn't really turn around.

Of course, Xiao Man seemed to be persuading Hua Li, but Yu Guang kept glancing over there, and Mrs. He's reaction was fully visible to her.

Xiao Man, who was more and more sure that the shopkeeper He and his family were threatened, grabbed Huali tightly and said, "Let's go, they have made up their minds that they don't want to cooperate with us, no matter how much you persuade them, it's useless, go." ”

Huali snorted coldly at Shopkeeper He unwillingly, "You just wait to regret it!" ”

After speaking, Huali was willing to leave with Xiaoman.

Leaving the He family and leaving Hao Yixuan, until he got into the carriage, Huali's anger had not subsided by half a minute, he muttered along the way, or said something indignantly, or complained to Xiaoman, in short, there was no quiet moment on the way.

And Xiao Man kept holding the ball in his hand, and he didn't dare to open it even when he left Hao Yixuan.

Huali wanted to get out of the car and leave halfway, but was stopped by Xiaoman and brought back to the county lord's mansion on the grounds that he still had to continue to discuss how to dispose of the cotton clothes.

As soon as he returned to the study, Xiao Man ordered the doors and windows to be closed, and specially transferred a few secret guards to guard around the study, so he sat down with confidence and took out the ball of things in his hand.

Hua Li, who didn't know the situation, was a little surprised when he saw this battle, and when he was about to ask, he saw the paper ball in Xiao Man's hand.

"What is this?" Hua Li stepped forward and looked at it with a frown.

Xiao Man was still very frightened in her heart, she didn't have the heart to return to Huali at all, she opened the small paper ball with trembling hands, and saw that it was written: Lao He and I were threatened by King Rong, and had to refuse the cooperation of the county lord, and I hope the county lord will forgive me.

"King Rong?" Holley exclaimed.

"Shh Xiao Man hurriedly pressed Hua Li, pulled the person aside, and carefully looked at the paper ball, even if there was only such a short sentence written on it, but it took her a long time to react, and connected the word "King Rong" with the person who had come to the mansion before.

Isn't King Rong deeply favored by the king? How could such a thing be done? Could it be that this is the king's command? Xiao Man was a little stunned for a while, she put away the paper ball, frowned and thought.

Hua Li on the side couldn't sit still, "County Lord, how could King Rong get involved in this?" ”

How could King Rong get involved in this...... How can Xiaoman know?

"I don't know." She sighed and shook her head, looked up at Hua Li, frowned and stared at the other party, and decided to ask the deepest doubts in her heart: "Hua Li, do you think it will be the king who instructed King Rong to do this?" ”

"Your Majesty?!" Hua Li got up, sat down again, and said categorically: "This is impossible!" When pigs fly! ”

However, after saying this, Xiao Man still looked at him with the same expression he had before, which couldn't help but make Hua Li hesitate, he scratched his head and muttered, "What reason does the king have for this?" What good will it do to the king? ”

Xiao Man bit his lip, and then said, "Isn't the king the most spoiled by this younger brother?" If King Rong wanted to stop this matter and ask for the king's order, the king would not disagree, right? ”
