Chapter Seventy-Two: The Beginning
Jiang Yuanyuan is clever and smart, she knows what she is doing when she is very young, when they play with mud and dirty their clothes, Jiang Yuanyuan knows to secretly change into another set of clothes she brought out, and then get up at night to wash and dry the hidden clothes in her room.
Every time she does something wrong, it is clear that Jiang Yuanyuan mentioned the cause of the matter, but if she is discovered by an adult, she can always pretend to be pitiful in a few words and blame all these things on him.
He only knew stupid commitments before, and he never knew why his father only beat him but never beat his sister, but then he grew up and knew all this, he always loved and hated Jiang Yuanyuan when he faced him, probably because of habit, and then he began to subconsciously call Jiang Yuanyuan, and if there was any mistake, he would subconsciously exclude Jiang Yuanyuan, and then find mistakes in his own body.
Jiang Yuanyuan has bad water in her stomach, and Jiang's father once sighed and said that Jiang Yuanyuan is a lot smarter, but it is easy to make trouble in big things.
Jiang Yuanyuan was reluctant to say, Jiang Xuan naturally wouldn't ask, he respected his sister, and at the same time knew that Jiang Yuanyuan was unwilling to say, there must be a reason why she didn't want to say, they couldn't ask, if Jiang Yuanyuan could solve it, she would definitely tell them about this matter in the future, if Jiang Yuanyuan couldn't solve it, they could only look at it, they could only stand behind Jiang Yuanyuan, silently comfort her, and give her the strength to stand up again.
In the afternoon, Sheng Rong came back, he looked tired, with a circle of stubble growing around his mouth and a faint black under his eyes.
"How's it going?" Jiang Yuanyuan took off Sheng Rong's coat and looked at Sheng Rong intently, Sheng Rong rubbed her eyebrows, sat on the table and drank a big sip of water very tiredly.
"I've negotiated with the Wei family." Sheng Rong said in a hoarse voice, "During this time, we will pay out all the compensation of the Wei family, and all the money will be recorded first, and we will pay it back later." ”
"How long can we hold up three thousand taels." Jiang Yuanyuan felt that her throat was a little hoarse, she couldn't help pinching her earlobe, her brows twisted slightly, "Sheng Rong, we must win, but I don't have confidence in us at all." ”
"A month." Sheng Rong sighed, a battle that must be lost, knowing that there is no hope, but they can only fight, they can't have stage fright, they have no power and no power, and the people opposite them are rich, powerful, and powerful, this war has no chance of winning from the beginning.
"Even if it's only for a month, we're going to fight." Jiang Yuanyuan said softly, "We should not fight to compensate for 5,000 taels, and we should pay 5,000 taels for war. ”
Sheng Rong was silent, he must lose five thousand taels, but they only had three thousand taels, this obvious gap, they should have chosen not to accept it, but this bright challenge is not at all the time for them to do multiple-choice questions, the Wei family is forcing them to fight, the Wei family wants to be this fisherman, wants to get this double benefit, they and the Peng family are just tools that are used.
A dark light flashed in his eyes, Sheng Rong felt a deep powerlessness, and he suddenly had a feeling that he was nothing without these identities.
"You can rest first." Jiang Yuanyuan said with a smile, "I know we have no hope, but this does not negate all of us, our efforts, our past, Sheng Rong, we can stand up again, this time the failure is just because of our immaturity." ”
Sheng Rong nodded silently, how could he not see the throbbing in the depths of Jiang Yuanyuan's eyes, Jiang Yuanyuan was born proud, but over the years, every time something happened, it was deeply hitting her pride, crushing her pride, and every time, it made her deeply feel the feeling of being oppressed.
Power.
Sheng Rong blinked, it was not the first time he had come into contact with the word power, but it was the first time he needed it so much, he needed this thing, for his lover, to guard her pride.
A few years later, when Sheng Rong had power but lost Jiang Yuanyuan, he suddenly realized that guarding was just a reason for him to gain power.
Early the next morning, Sheng Rong took all their silk quilts to the city, Jiang Yuanyuan first paid all the people a salary, this time the salary, all the people were silent, they seemed to know the weight of the monthly wages they received, and the weight of the contract they signed for this job.
Yesterday, Liang An's family really came to the official mansion, and the people from the official mansion took Liang An away, and Liang Anxin thought that the person who would protect her did not appear.
What if it has a relationship, in black and white, even if the government wants to be partial, this paper contract is real, and now the situation is so tense, the people behind it naturally don't have the leisure time to see Liang Yun's situation.
The battle officially started, Jiang Yuanyuan's field, began to process day and night, all the people were divided into two batches by Jiang Yuanyuan, one group worked during the day, one group worked at night, and the salary increased several times several times, at this time, everyone realized something, but they no longer had the time to think, to chat, the signed contract told them that they belonged to Jiang Yuanyuan.
There are a lot of complaints, but they are all suppressed by the high salary, and besides, they don't have no time to rest, but the workload is greater.
Jiang Yuanyuan has been working day and night for three days, every time the silk produced by her has to be carefully checked, to confirm that there is no problem and then encapsulated, she and an embroidery girl in the embroidery room to talk about business, ask them to rush to make five hundred quilts with patterns, these sheets are set on the outside of the silk quilt, the embroidery is very beautiful.
Every night, someone comes back to deliver the silk quilt, and at the same time, it will also bring Sheng Rong's news, Sheng Rong will give Jiang Yuanyuan a report on their situation every day, and the news, as they expected, is miserable.
Peng Qi lowered the price to two hundred taels at the beginning, so Sheng Rong sold it at the beginning of one hundred and eighty taels of beds, and the silk was transported to various places, Sheng Rong just guarded in Liangzhou, the price they issued in the morning, and in the afternoon, Peng Qi pressed the price at one hundred and seventy taels, and the next day, Sheng Rong chose to be calm at the price, and they were also one hundred and seventy taels a bed.
The reputation of the Wei family is still greater than that of the Peng family, which is about to decline, and even Peng Qi is powerless to recover, so Peng Qi took the initiative to reduce the price to one hundred and sixty-five taels on the third day, and Sheng Rong followed closely behind, biting the price to the death.
The crazy price reduction of the silk quilt seems to make everyone understand what, there are no longer as many people who buy as at the beginning, in addition to the crazy purchase of many people on the first and second days, more people are waiting, Peng Qi lowers the price of five taels of silver every day, Sheng Rong is also closely behind, everyone has found what the law, all of a sudden, there are few guests.
There are more than 100 beds of goods in the warehouse, Sheng Rong frantically knocks on the plate and there are 30 to 50 beds in the stockpile, their silk quilts are only sold in the county, all of them have a total of nine strongholds, although Liangzhou is the smallest of the nine strongholds, but it is the one with the most goods, every night there are fifty beds of cups transported to the Liangzhou stronghold, but they can't sell a bed.
Inside the house, Sheng Rong and another gentleman were calculating their losses these days, fifteen days had passed, half of the time had passed, and all the losses were exactly what the old gentleman expected, and they were just doing the final calculations now.
With a long exhale, Sheng Rong withdrew his trembling hand.
On the other side, the sound of the abacus also stopped, Sheng Rong wrote down the last stroke, and took the account book to the old gentleman, the old man's surname is Zhao, more than half a hundred years old, but the person is very energetic.
"It's flat." Sheng Rong put the ledger in his hand in front of Shopkeeper Zhao, who pressed his eyebrows, looked at it casually, and then nodded.
"Same as me, yes."
Today's price is one hundred and fifty taels, and tomorrow morning, it should be one hundred and ten taels, but they don't plan to press it to one hundred and ten.
"After a protracted battle for half a month, the Peng family should have lost almost a lot." The old gentleman closed the ledger.
Three thousand taels, so far, there are less than one hundred taels left, and their war, although there is still half a month, is also coming to an end.
"The only advantage we have now is the Wei family and the goods behind us." The old gentleman stood up and patted his robe, and he exhaled, and a hazy mist appeared before his eyes.
"Today's goods have arrived." Sheng Rong stood next to the window, he looked down, rubbed his temples, the last batch, eighty beds of goods, all their goods were here.
"Alright, let's distribute it as we planned." Shopkeeper Zhao nodded and said, Sheng Rong looked outside silently, he walked out and said something, and when he came in again, he held a few pieces of paper in his hand.
Placing the paper in his hand on the table, Sheng Rong let out a long exhale.
"Mr. Zhao, Sheng has always wanted to ask you, who are you?" Sheng Rong looked at the shopkeeper Zhao, he said to Jiang Yuanyuan that the shopkeeper Zhao was introduced by his friend, in fact, this person came to the door by himself, which is why Sheng Rong didn't trust this person at first, but the shopkeeper Zhao is really very good at doing things, and there is no second heart, Sheng Rong believes this person.
Now that everything was over, he naturally wanted to ask what was going on.
"Who am I?" Shopkeeper Zhao asked with a smile.
"It doesn't matter when we're partners." Sheng Rong lowered his eyes and said calmly, "But we are not partners anymore, this is very important, you have everything in our hands, I naturally want to know who you are, so I can know if I can trust you." ”
"Hahaha!" Shopkeeper Zhao smiled, "The prince can rest assured, the old minister has watched the prince grow up, so he is naturally trustworthy." ”
Sheng Rong's pupils contracted suddenly.
