Half an hour before Xiao Man returned to Lu Mansion.

A blue-gray low-key sedan chair stopped in front of Lu Li's door, and the envoy coughed lightly, got out of the sedan chair, and entered the Lu Mansion with only one guard.

When the little servant came to report, Lu Li was a little surprised, he didn't expect the envoy to come to the door in person, so he hurriedly went out to greet him in person.

"Grandpa Guo." The envoy bowed and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry for bothering you without saying hello in advance." ”

From the first time they met, Lu Li knew that the other party was an old fox who did things well, if it weren't for the fact that he was accidentally caught by himself before, and learned that he was secretly investigating Xiaoman, Lu Li never thought that this scheming envoy would have a moment of panic.

But that was a few days ago, and the envoy is now back to his former shrewdness, speaking so tightly that it is impossible to find the slightest mistake.

Since the other party took the initiative to come to the door, he naturally had to be polite, at least he couldn't be caught by the other party. After all, he still doesn't know the purpose of the other party, and if he is caught and used to blackmail, then the matter will be in big trouble.

Lu Li smiled slightly, "Whatever the envoy said, please come in." ”

After entering the house, he instructed Jade and the others to make tea, and glanced at the guards beside the envoy as if at random.

The other party was dressed in black and had no conspicuous weapons on his body, but judging from his standing posture and eyes, this person's martial arts were not low, and his weapons were most likely hidden on his body, such as daggers and the like.

Just thinking about it, the envoy opened his mouth: "Grandpa Guo, I heard that you stepped down two years ago, and you have been accompanying your lady to play in the mountains and rivers all these years, and your life must be very chic and comfortable, right?" ”

Lu Li frowned, not knowing the meaning of the other party's question, but out of politeness, he still responded: "Yes, I wanted to go to the north a few days ago, but I couldn't bear the factors of external forces, so I had to stay in Shangjing and wait for the spring to warm up before leaving." ”

"Oh?" As soon as he heard that he was going to the north, the envoy immediately became interested, and he raised his eyebrows and asked: "Canglan Country is also in the north, if the grandfather and the duchess of the country are going to play in the future, they will definitely inform me, and they will definitely bring someone to greet them." ”

Lu Li responded happily.

After saying so many pleasantries, seeing that Lu Li was still not in a hurry to ask about his intentions, the envoy couldn't hold back a little and asked, "Is the Duchess at home?" ”

"She's out and hasn't come back yet." Lu Li looked at the envoy with a smile and asked, "The envoy came to the door in person, did he come to find her?" ”

The envoy touched his beard and smiled lightly, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes piled up, "Grandpa Guo's eyes are like torches, and he is indeed looking for Mrs. Guo when he comes to visit." ”

Originally, they had planned to discuss the cooperation in detail a few days before the departure after the matter was agreed with the relatives. But he couldn't bear Huali's urgency, he was always afraid that after waiting for a long time, there would be extraneous branches, and there was indeed no more suitable store in Shangjing than Manrou Garment Fang, so he could only visit early at Huali's request, so as to settle this matter.

"Are you here to discuss cooperation?" Lu was a little slack, and there was a sincere smile on his face.

However, he still didn't understand one thing, this cooperation should be in charge of the caravan, why is the envoy here now?

"Yes." The envoy replied, "But these things shouldn't be clear to the grandfather, right?" If the Duchess of Guo will not come back for a while, then it is better to come back another day. ”

And when he had said that, the envoy was to get up and depart.

But Lu Li opened his mouth to stop, "The envoy told me the same, I also have a little understanding of the business of the store, if it is not a trivial matter, the envoy told me, and I will convey it to Xiaoman, it will be the same." ”

With that, Lu Li asked all the people in the house to go out, leaving only him, the envoys, and the envoys and guards.

This envoy looked shrewd, he was afraid that Xiao Man would fall into the trap of the other party, so he specially made this suggestion.

The envoy was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Grandpa Guo is really powerful, and he even has a little involvement in the affairs of the store. Anyway, I will inform you of this matter today, and it will be easier for you to accept it by the Duchess at that time. ”

As soon as these words came out, Lu Lideng raised his heart and listened to the other party's meaning, and the result of their discussion seemed to be unfavorable to Xiaoman?

"After I discussed with Huali of the caravan, because considering that Canglan Country and Donglan Country were different, we discussed for a long time before making a final decision." As he spoke, the envoy took out a thin piece of paper from his arms and ordered the guards beside him to send it to the table next to Lu Li.

Donglan has four distinct seasons, with different winter clothes, spring clothes, summer clothes, etc., which requires the Manrou Garment Workshop to design more clothing styles and come up with more patterns, but it is precisely because of this that the business of the Manrou Garment Workshop can become more and more prosperous, and its popularity in Shangjing is getting higher and higher.

But Canglan is different, Canglan has always been cold, especially the so-called winter, goose feather snow is floating all season, coupled with the proximity to the mountains, which leads to a colder climate in their country, and they need to wear leather jackets all year round.

The advantages of the Manrou Garment Workshop are gone, and the envoy naturally wants to change it so that this store is more suitable for the actual situation of the vicissitudes.

Listening to the envoy's explanation, Lu Li always felt that things were not so simple, he frowned and opened the paper, and after seeing the content and meaning in it, his brows became tighter and tighter, and his face became more and more gloomy.

The design patterns, the style of the clothes, the raw materials, the embroidery thread, the production and other persuasions are all responsible for the Manrou Garment Workshop, and they only need to be responsible for transporting these goods to the Canglan country, which is enough, the key is that the division model is too bullying!

In the Manrou Garment Factory, they are responsible for all the processes from purchase to production, and they are only responsible for transportation, and it takes 55 points to divide the shares!

Lu Li tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, tried his best to fold the paper calmly, and put it back on the table, he looked up at the envoy, but his tone couldn't calm down no matter what, "Lord Envoy, this is the result of the discussion between you and the person in charge of the caravan overnight?" ”

"Yes." The envoy was still smiling.

"If you want to cooperate with Full-Rou Garment in this way, I'm sorry, I don't think so." Lu Li's voice was low, and the anger in his eyes could not be concealed, he explained: "This store is Xiaoman has spent a lot of energy to operate to the current model, and now you want to cooperate, you want to take all this away, which will make me feel that Canglan Country is too stingy." ”

Before, he could endure to say a sentence or two, but in the end, Lu Li still couldn't hold back the needle in the cotton, and coldly sarcastically said a few words to Canglan Country.

When the envoy heard this, he exploded and got up, "What do you mean by that?" If we don't recognize this way of cooperation, we can change it! Why do you use this thing to blacken the whole vicissitudes? What the hell do you have in mind?! ”

Seeing that the other party completely revealed his emotions, Lu Li didn't hide it, he got up, his voice was cold, with a hint of sarcasm: "Don't approve? I don't just disagree, I don't agree! What are you guys? This form of cooperation is more horrible and disgusting than oppression and deprivation! Even more stingy! It's even more out of the table! ”

"Lu Li! Don't think that if you are the prince of Donglan, I won't dare to mess with you! I warn you, don't talk too much! The envoy was completely annoyed, and he didn't care about the advice of the guards beside him, and roared with Lu Li at the top of his voice.

The two of you say a word, I say a word, every time the envoy speaks, he can't wait to jump three feet high, he points to the tip of Lu Li's nose, and his throat is almost broken. And Lu Li always stood in place with his hands in his hands, although he looked unfazed, but every time he said something, there were poisoned needles hidden in them, and each needle pierced the tip of the envoy's heart.

Therefore, when Xiao Man opened the curtain and came in, he saw such a scene: the envoy stood on the carpet in the center of the house, jumping and jumping, pointing at the tip of Lu Li's nose and scolding, while Lu Li stood at the table with his hands in his hands, his eyes were fierce, and his mouth showed no mercy.

Xu is angle of the two of them can't see the door, maybe the two of them are too focused on arguing, so that after Xiaoman entered the door, no one noticed her at all.

She had to cough lightly a few times, and took advantage of the gap between the two to speak, and hesitated to speak: "You ......"

The envoy turned around when he heard the voice, and Lu Li also put away his anger and walked straight towards her, "Xiaoman, I have something to tell you, you come out." ”

As he spoke, Lu Li pulled the person out without saying anything, softened his tone a little, and said firmly: "Xiaoman, just now the envoy showed me the cooperation model they had formulated, and I think it was very inappropriate, so I suggested that I should not cooperate with them for now." ”

"Huh?!" Xiao Man's mouth opened wide.

"Xiaoman, I know that this news is very sudden for you, and it may destroy something, but believe me, such a cooperation model is harmful to you and to Manrou Garment Factory, if you really want to expand your business, then I will accompany you to Canglan Country, we will go directly to the local store to open a store, we will not cooperate with them!" Lu Li added.

But hearing this, Xiao Man was still a little confused, "How could this suddenly happen?" Lu Li, what's wrong, what's going on? ”

Lu Li held Xiao Man's shoulder, met the other party's eyes, and said very solemnly: "These people only seek their own interests, and they don't consider the feelings of others at all, Xiao Man, give up this cooperation!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Man was still in a state of confusion and stupidity, and suddenly there was a voice next to him, which was from the envoy: "Shopkeeper Su, you are a businessman, you should know that if a shop wants to survive for a long time, you must make some trade-offs, and you must also take a long-term view, and you can't be frightened by the little gains and losses in front of you!" ”

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Lu Li retorted angrily: "Your model can only allow your caravan to develop in the long run, right?" Envoy, if you want to get it, but you don't give it at all, it's too selfish! ”

"Why didn't I pay? Isn't it paid for caravans to transport goods? ”
