Chapter 196: Dianzhu
Chapter 196 Dianzhu
After coming out of Master Mo's workshop, Ah Sheng has been looking at her intently, fortunately there are few people on the street of Shixing Workshop, otherwise it will definitely attract the attention of passers-by.
"Why do you look at me like that?" Even if he knew his character, but being looked at by him so directly, Mo Li felt a little unbearable.
"What you just said is true?" Ah Sheng frowned.
"It's not certain, but it's possible." After Mo Li said this, he raised his face and squinted slightly at the sky in the distance. The summer sun fell on her face, illuminating the skin on her face like white porcelain, and her delicate and beautiful facial features looked extremely dazzling at this moment, but the expression on her face was as calm as a winter ice lake, revealing a bit of condensation and solemnity that was incompatible with this hot summer.
Three days later, the second master Mo handed over the news, and the matter of safflower dye was privately resolved with the Wang family, and sure enough, after Ji Yufeng heard about it, he specially asked someone to come over to inquire. Second Master Mo had already prepared, that is, he pulled the man, and said with a face of righteous indignation that he found that the safflower dye was mixed with fine red, if it weren't for the fact that his knowledgeable master was there, he would have been killed. If it weren't for the fact that he was in a hurry now, he would have to sue the Wang family to the yafu and wait, and the person who came to inquire about the news would have to comfort him in the end.
Second Master Mo has always given people the impression that he is straightforward and fast-talking, so the person who came to inquire about the news really believed Second Master Mo's words when he saw such a big reaction from Second Master Mo in his heart. In fact, every word that Master Mo Er said was the truth, and many times, the truth was the most invulnerable defense.
This matter, on the surface, is just a problem between the workshop and the raw material merchant, and it has nothing to do with the customers who place the order. So just as Mo Li expected, even if he knew about it, Ji Yufeng didn't react, and he didn't remind Master Mo San.
In mid-June, the order of 100,000 taels of thousands of flowers was handed over, and after Mo Li received the news from Mo Er, her heart inevitably jumped wildly, and it was not long before she could confirm whether Ji Yufeng was really involved in this matter.
"Did the third child just fall?" Second Master Mo said hesitantly.
Mo Li glanced at Second Master Mo: "Second Uncle can't bear it? ”
Second Master Mo walked a few steps with his hands in his hands, and thought for a while with his brows twisted before he said, "I always feel that I am helping outsiders deal with my own family." ”
Mo Li was also silent for a while before he said slowly: "The second cousin has already told the old lady about this matter." ”
Second Master Mo paused slightly, and Mo Li had a little understanding on his face: "The third cousin is the old lady's sister-in-law, but the old lady did not interfere in this matter, and the second cousin still doesn't understand in his heart." When she said this, she glanced at the second master Mo with a somewhat complicated expression, and then said, "The old lady has the same meaning as me, that is, I want to make sure that it is not the people of the Ji family who are secretly making trouble, and whether they have not died all these years." If you don't beat the grass, just to avoid startling the snake, the new workshop is nothing, it's just some empty space and a brand that hasn't been made famous yet. The old masters inside are the deeds signed by the Mo family, and as soon as you open your mouth, they will naturally have to come back, which will avoid the possibility of personnel outflow in the future. And the third cousin, after all, is the old lady's sister-in-law, and the main industry in his hands is not the newly opened workshop. In the final analysis, it is also Uncle Santang's heart that is too greedy, he wants to take care of everything, but he doesn't have the ability to take care of the whole thing, so he must lose the other. ”
Second Master Mo was stunned for a long time before he sighed slightly: "Fifteen girl, your mind really doesn't look like a girl's family." ”
Mo Li smiled faintly: "I also have no choice, don't think about it too much, don't calm down, how can I withstand the cold knife and dark arrow." ”
Besides, she also wants to further determine whether the Ji family was involved in the death of her grandfather and father. That day, she asked Mo Changqing about it, but Mo Changqing didn't know it, but a few days later, Mo Changqing told her something again. The Ji family has been concentrating on the cultivation of the world's blue face and the cultivation of silkworms all these years, intending to deduce such ingenious techniques. And the year Mo Siqi died, I heard that the Ji family almost succeeded in replicating the beauty of the year, but in the end, it was still one step behind, but it still raised the beauty satin to a higher level. Now, more than ten years have passed, and no one knows if their family has made progress. Moreover, because the Mo family has not been able to reproduce the glorious skills of the past, the Ji family must have guessed that the Mo family is afraid that such skills will also be lost, and even if there is, it is estimated that it is incomplete.
After knowing so many old years, Mo Li was speechless for a long time, if he thought from the other party's position, when they learned that stealing skills was hopeless, they would definitely not want their family to be preempted by others when they were about to break through. At that time, the news of her grandfather's successful breeding of silkworms had been revealed, and it was not surprising that some people would have bad intentions...... Besides, it's not just the Ji family who is eyeing it.
However, these are only her speculations, and there is no evidence at all. It's Mo Changqing, who has personally experienced so many things, and has come over so many years, but he hasn't found the slightest evidence. What's more, the Ji family is so huge, there are countless people in both the court and the officialdom, and the Mo family is just a merchant with a little reputation and a little silver.
Therefore, even if he was slapped so hard by the Ji family back then, and now the seal is still there, but for so many years, the Mo family has never dared to have the slightest bad relationship with the Ji family.
Mo Li stood in the fashionable workshop, looking at the busy scene inside, and the look in his eyes became more and more determined. As long as the Mo family's workshop is unified and completely in the hands of Mo Er, and she also has the power to decide the affairs of the workshop, she can take out the several lost weaving and dyeing techniques that her grandfather's codex remembers. Otherwise, she would rather rot in her hands than make a wedding dress for someone else.
Therefore, Master Mo San's emerging workshop must fall, if Ji Yufeng really has this intention, she doesn't mind taking him as a shareholder and taking the things in Master Mo San's hand.
Just when the affairs of the workshop were surging in the dark tide, the business of Yunshang Pavilion became more and more deserted as time went by.
"Owner, the treasury is almost full, and now we don't have much money to embezzle in our account." Jia Hei said that he calculated the accounts for Mo Li, and the trading was deserted, but the fixed output every month would not be priced because the trading was not good. The taxes and wages of the men alone are a big thing that can be seen, and besides, the horses in the treasury are not completely certain that they will not really depreciate when this price war has passed. Also, there is a guaranteed base for the dividends to Xie Gexian, if the trading is booming, it will be added upward, but if the trading is lost, the silver on his side cannot be less. Because this is the silver of filial piety, it is just a matter of sounding to say that dividends are just high-sounding.
Mo Li checked the account book and looked at it carefully for a while, then raised his eyes and said: "It's not that there is no input at all, but the yarn is selling well." ”
Jia Hei smiled: "Thanks to the foresight of the owner, now when the yarn is hot, it is a profitable business, so not many people are willing to press it down." In addition to the transaction we made with the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau before, there are still some savings in the store, so now we have a piece of the pie. ”
Mo Li closed the account book and handed it to Jia Hei: "It's been hard for you this time, as long as you get through this while." ”
She knew that not only was she working hard, but Jia Hei was also running out every day, asking for news everywhere to talk about business and business. Fortunately, he has always been in good spirits, and he never sighs like the guy in the store, and invisibly shares a lot of worries for her.
"There will always be ups and downs." Jia Hei took the account book with a smile, and then went out to be busy with himself, but before leaving, he suddenly coughed a few times.
"What, are you unwell?". Mo Li asked.
"It's okay, it's just that my throat is a little uncomfortable, maybe it's hot, it's on fire." Jia Hei cleared his throat, hehe, and left. And he didn't have long to go, and Hongdou came in with iced lily mung bean soup and said with a smile: "Girl, rest first, drink some of this to relieve fatigue, Mrs. specially asked me to cook it for the girl." ”
"You send a bowl to the guys in the store." Mo Li took a sip and felt quite refreshed, so he said.
Hongdou said hesitantly: "Girl, I haven't done much, it's not enough." ”
Mo Li put down the spoon, thought about it and said, "Then send a bowl to Uncle Gu and Shopkeeper Jia, as well as Ah Sheng, and invite them to come to the front hall to drink." The guy in the store, you send the black plum soup, this Ming'er will cook some more. ”
Hongdou responded, just thought about it and said: "Girl, isn't the business in the store not very good, I heard that the income is not better than the day, and now is the time to save money." If you still spend it, what can you do in the future? Besides, I looked at the guys in the store that day, and they were listless, and one of them complained a lot, they are like this, what is the girl doing so well to them?"
Mo Li smiled slightly: "The business in the store is not good, and the guys' rewards are not much, they just look forward to living with such a little silver every month, and it is normal for them to complain." Jia Hei will take care of this, don't worry, go ahead, let them come over and drink mung bean soup. ”
It's just that although Mo Li's side is stable, but Aunt Xue can't bear it, the Xiangrui Silk Village from Mo Li is all silk, so now everyone has a silk Zhuang Lian, and in less than a month, Xiangrui Silk Village not only did not earn silver, but also lost a lot. Moreover, it was time to redeem the account, and the deed of sale signed at that time stipulated that half of the silver would be cashed in a month's time, and that a new batch of material could be entered.
So Aunt Xue discussed with her brother for a while, and secretly communicated with Wang Dahu a few times, they all felt that this was a good time, and they just took advantage of this opportunity to start.
"It's really hot today, the big girl is still busy, tsk, it's really hard." As soon as the mung bean soup of red beans was delivered, when she turned around and went out to invite Jia Hei and the others, Aunt Xue came over and said to Mo Li flatteringly. Then after looking at the bowls of mung bean soup on the shelf, he picked up a bowl and took a sip, and then said, "It's still a big girl to enjoy it here, look at such a hot day, drink it in this sip, it's really comfortable." ”
Mo Li couldn't stop it, so he had to frown slightly and said: "That's for the shopkeepers to drink, if the aunt wants to drink, let the maid go to the kitchen and say it's not good." And this is the place of ceremonies in the front hall, my aunt should go back first, and in the evening, just go to the east chamber and tell me. ”
"The eldest girl is the one who is in charge of big things, I don't know what difficulties I have in it, this bowl of mung bean soup, even if the eldest girl doesn't open her mouth, someone will send it over. And I, let alone let the maid go over and say it, even if I go there myself, I may not be able to have my share. When Aunt Xue said this, she glanced at Mo Li and sighed, "Although I can be regarded as sharing weal and sorrow with the eldest girl now, I still can't even compare to a mere shopkeeper." ”
Mo Li didn't speak, but just watched her directing and acting there with cold eyes. If any maid in the family complained a few words of distress in front of her, she would say a few words of comfort, and for Aunt Xue, she didn't even move her eyebrows.
"Okay, okay, I know I've annoyed the girl, I'll go back." Aunt Xue glanced at Mo Li, smiled hurriedly, and then stood up and said, "I just want to tell the girl about Xiangrui Silk Village, after all, I am not too anxious, and it will be okay to say that night." ”
Mo Li raised her eyebrows slightly, and was about to ask, but when Ah Sheng and Hongyu walked in from outside, she changed her words and said, "Auntie will go to my room before dinner." ”
"Okay, then the girl is busy." Aunt Xue shook the fan and smiled lightly, turned around, and when she passed by Ah Sheng, she glanced at Ah Sheng with a smile, and deliberately chuckled low in her mouth, and then went out with the fan.
"That bowl was just drunk by Aunt Xue, you take it down and change it to another bowl." After Aunt Xue left, Mo Li pointed to the lotus white porcelain bowl with a slight lip print and ordered.
"Why is she so ......" Hongdou muttered a little dissatisfied, and then picked up the half bowl of mung bean soup, but when she was about to go out, she suddenly stood again, turned her head to look at Ah Sheng and Mo Li, and then said with some hesitation, "Girl, that, Shopkeeper Jia and Uncle Gu are busy and don't have time to come over to drink." Otherwise, why don't you let Ah Sheng bring it to them first, and I'll send Ah Sheng a bowl later. ”
Mo Li glanced at the red beans, then at Ah Sheng, and then said, "You can send a bowl of mung bean soup to Uncle Gu first, and then send a bowl to Jia Hei later." ”
Hongdou was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at Ah Sheng in some surprise, but he didn't dare to say anything at this time, and after answering, he went out with a stomach full of doubts.
"You sit down and drink, it's hot, I just asked the red beans to add crushed ice to your bowl, this one is better to eat with crushed ice." Mo Li stood up as she spoke, picked up her bowl of mung bean soup and walked over, and sat down on the other side of the table. In this position, it is cooler for the wind energy outside to sneak in, and she actually prefers to sit in this position when there is no one in the front hall on weekdays.
Ah Sheng noticed that she didn't add crushed ice to her bowl, so he asked, "If you like it, why don't you have it?" ”
"I'm more greedy, but it's not good to eat too much." Mo Li lowered his eyelids as he spoke, and moved the small spoon in his bowl. In the past, when she was young and ignorant, every summer when she ate these things, she would let people add ice cubes to her bowl, and always froze her stomach cold, so that after many years of medication, there was no effect.
But now every time she thinks about it, she is a little glad in her heart, fortunately, in the past ten years, she did not leave a son and a half daughter, otherwise, even if she is resurrected and reborn, she will definitely not be able to let go of the blood and blood on the other side of time.
But after a moment of distraction, the person next to him had already drunk the bowl of lily mung bean soup, and he was as heroic as drinking, and he didn't even move the spoon. The porcelain bowl made a slight noise when it was put down, and she came back to her senses, and then smiled slightly self-deprecatingly. Inexplicably, I actually want to go over there, but I'm too tired lately.
"Do you have something to tell me?" As soon as Ah Sheng saw Mo Li's expression, he knew that she had something in her heart.
Mo Li put the half bowl of mung bean soup in his hand on the table, then turned his head and asked, "Well, I've been paying attention to the affairs of the workshop recently, and Jia Hei is busy with the affairs of the store." Xiangrui is a little relieved, can you help me look at it? ”
Ah Sheng nodded: "There has been no movement some time ago, but two days ago, the number of times that Jiang Changgui ran out suddenly increased. ”
"Oh, what's he's up to?"
"I did a road guide, it seems that I want to buy and sell with other states and counties."
"It sounds like he's found a way out for the stuff in the store." Mo Li raised her eyebrows slightly, thought about it again, and then said, "It's almost time to exchange the silver, Aunt Xue just came over specifically for this matter, so it seems that they should continue to buy." ”
Ah Sheng asked, "Do you want to give it to them?" ”。
Mo Liwei leaned back in the chair: "When business is so cold, there is such a large deal sent to the door, how can I refuse." ”
Since she said so, Ah Sheng began to calculate the amount of stock in this warehouse in his heart, and he had never objected to her decision, she could play as much as she liked.
Mo Li thought for a while, and then said, "You go and get busy first, I'll talk to you in detail tomorrow, but you can keep an eye on it for me over there." ”
Ah Sheng glanced at her, and suddenly said, "Do you want me to write a letter to Bayan and ask him to come and collect the materials in the store?" ”
Mo Li glanced at him, remembered what he said before, was stunned, and said: "Although this matter is good, but once it comes and goes, almost two months have passed, and it will be just in time for the silk fair, but you can invite him to come over and see the exhibition here." ”
"Okay." Ah Sheng nodded in response, but when he stood up, his eyes couldn't help but stop at the edge of Mo Li's bowl, where it was clean and clean, without a trace of lip prints. He raised his eyes, and his gaze fell on her lips, but for the sake of fat powder, his lips seemed to have been lit with Zhu. Mo Li was waiting for him to get up, but he didn't see any movement from him, so he was about to ask what else was going on, but as soon as he raised his eyes, he noticed where his gaze was—
I'm not good for a bad year.,Recently, bad luck has continued.,Today my Weibo was actually stolen.,Stolen even if it's a bird.,It's actually written off.,Whew,I'm this little transparent.,It's so low-key that it can't be more low-key.,I really don't know who still looks up to me so much.
