Xie Wan turned around and said, "You go talk to him first, touch his depth, if it's just a braggart, don't pay attention to it." ”

Luo Sheng can also be said to know countless people, and there is no pressure on this little thing.

He turned around and went downstairs and went straight to the opposite side, then ordered two side dishes and sat down opposite Chang Wu, seeing the two talking, Chang Wu also raised a glass to him. After about two or three quarters of an hour, Xie Wan finished eating half a plate of almonds here, and Luo Sheng came back.

"The small estimate doesn't seem like pure bragging, he is still relatively familiar with the affairs on the docks, and several key people also know their names and appearances."

Xie Wan ate two more almonds before saying, "There is no other good way at the moment, so let's catch up with him first and go to the dock." If it doesn't work out, think of something else. ”

Luo Sheng nodded and sent her downstairs.

Outside the door, she squinted at the street scene twice, and then boarded the carriage.

Uncle Qian, who was setting up a stall at the door, trotted closer, and asked hesitantly, "What is the girl looking for that Chang Wu?" ”

Xie Wan saw the worry in his eyes, and knew that he was purely afraid that he would suffer a loss, and he didn't want him to know too much, so he smiled and said, "It's okay, just ask him about someone." Don't worry. ”

Uncle Qian pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but in the end he let go of his hand on the wheel.

Xie Wan smiled, nodded at him, and motioned for Luo Ju to drive.

The car had just turned a corner, and the mule suddenly hissed and stilted its front legs.

Someone in front of him scolded: "Who is so unsightly? Didn't you see us coming?! ”

Xie Wan didn't pay attention to the car being hit, so it was easy to sit firmly against the wall of the car, and he could hear this. Then he hula and opened the curtain.

The mule cart had already gone up the street, and the horses on the opposite side had apparently turned around. The horse's buttocks are still facing the mouth of the alley. Immediately sat a boy with oily hair and noodles, and it turned out to be Ning Dayi, who was splashed with ink in Lizi Hutong last year.

Ning Dayi saw Luo Ju sitting in the front of the car. I felt familiar, and I was wondering who it was, and suddenly I saw a face that was as quiet as Qiuyue and not angry and arrogant after the curtain of the car was opened, and I was stunned for a moment.

Luo Ju frowned: "What to see?" Can you keep an eye on our girls too?! ”

Ning Dayi suddenly came back to his senses, and pointed at Xie Wan with wide eyes: "You, you, you, you are the three girls of the Xie family!" Last time, you blackmailed me for a piece of jade! ”

Xie Wan sneered: "It turned out to be Ning Lao Er, who was playing majestic in front of my shop, who I said was so short-sighted!" It seems that the old saying is true, a dog can't spit out ivory in a day, and he can't spit out ivory in a lifetime! ”

Ning Dayi's face flushed with anger. He got off his horse, walked to the car, and said, "Girl, don't deceive people too much! I'd rather dictate that I don't have a rule not to beat women! ”

Xie Wan jumped out of the carriage and said with a heavy face: "You don't have a rule not to beat women, and I don't have a rule not to beat men!" ”

A full bottle of water does not make a sound, and half a bottle of water swayes.

The more profound the background, the more restrained the person is, and the more weak the person is, the louder he shouts.

Xie Wan didn't have a good impression of the Ning family at all.

Passers-by gradually gathered around, curiously asking about the ins and outs. Someone whispered what it was. Then the crowd rang out with voices of sudden realization. I think it was because the Ning family had a bad reputation in the city, and they did too many things that made people angry, so people's spearheads were automatically directed at Ning Dayi.

Xie Wan glared at him coldly and didn't say much.

But Luo Ju, who was much taller than her, stood behind her with his chest crossed. But for no reason, it made her a little more intimidating.

Although Luo Ju was also a powerless literati, he was two heads taller than Xie Wan, staring at Ning Dayi like that. It can be seen that he is not an easy master. Xie Wan can control him at such a young age, which in itself is impressive.

Ning Dayi was put on a high platform by himself. I can't go up or down, and my face is so embarrassed that I dye the wrong color of satin.

Xie Wan said: "Luo Ju counts to ten." If he doesn't give way, poison his horse! ”

Xie Wan said nothing on weekdays, and there were a number of people around him, so Luo Ju immediately said yes, and looked around to see if there were any pharmacies selling arsenic and the like.

Ning Dayi also saw that she didn't seem to be scaring him, and he panicked, he hadn't fought anyone last time, and now the Xie family has another Xie Rong who is an official in the court, and the gap between the Ning family and them is even bigger, if she really poisons his horse, where can he reason? Even if you go home to complain, you can only be scolded by the old man on his forehead for being useless!

"You, you dare!" He pointed at her with a fierce look, and his steps were two points back.

Xie Wan sneered, waited for him to give up enough space, and then got into the car.

Luo Ju whipped up and drove away. Ning Dayi's horse neighed in fright.

The onlookers scattered in a hurry.

Ning Dayi smacked hard, and got on the horse with a disgraced face.

The people in the streets and alleys don't look up every day, and they are most afraid that there is no point to talk about, and the news that Ning Dayi was deflated twice at the hands of the three girls of the Xie family spread quickly, and after three or two days, not only all the people in the Li Zi Hutong area knew, but even the Xie Mansion also received the wind.

Xie Hong heard it from Chen Lu's mouth, and immediately went to Wang's house.

Wang pondered for a long time, but he sneered and called Xie Hong to come forward and explain a few words.

Since she entered the Xie Mansion in her life, she has never suffered any defeats, she has not fallen behind in the palm of the house, fighting her stepson, and winning her husband's heart! But I didn't expect that in just two years, she was repeatedly defeated by Xie Wan, she was defenseless at first, but now she knows her details, if she doesn't let her taste the hardships, then she will be the lady in charge of this mansion in vain!

It didn't take long for Chen Lu to go out alone. When he came back, he went straight to Wang's house, and it took a long time before he came out.

Naturally, no one paid attention to what they were doing, anyway, the Wang family was chattering like this all day long.

Luo Sheng had already gone to Cangzhou Wharf with Chang Wu, Xie Wan was waiting for his reply, and there was a lack of competent people in the shop, so he didn't have much to pay attention to the affairs of the house. In addition, the business in Huangshi Town has declined in recent months, and the monthly sales volume not only does not meet the original regulations, but also basically even the manual monthly money has become a problem, so she can't help but ask.

"It has been checked very clearly, the reason is that those merchants because they tasted the sweetness of selling profits higher than the price, so they blindly raised the price, a piece of Shu silk tail cloth we only sold two taels of silver and a foot when the regular price of Plum Hutong, and they actually shouted the price to two and a half. Naturally, there are people who have been pitted, but after being pitted once or twice, people will naturally not come back later. ”

Luo Ju handed her the account book in his hand to her.

All the entries in the accounts were recorded according to the price that Xie Wan gave them, but the sales volume was declining.

"The little ones feel that it is very disadvantageous for us to go on like this, and they sell the tail goods as genuine goods, so they are satisfied, but our business name has made a bad reputation because of this."

Luo Ju said worriedly.

Two years later, he is now able to take a long-term view. This is the biggest difference compared to his father Luo Shenglai.

Luo Sheng is just too conservative.

Xie Wan closed the account book and said: "When I picked them to be the goods mother, it was a temporary need. In that case, you should find a few suitable people first, and then replace them. Originally, those ladies wanted to make trouble, don't be intimidated, we have said before, if we can't reach the sales volume, we will be dismissed, if you are not satisfied, let the yamen ruling, and then let them spit out the money they overcharged. ”

Luo Ju thought for a while, and then said: "We already have four silk shops in the city now, and we only sell and process goods in one place in Huangshi Town, and we can't sell too much. In the future, if there are more shops, I am afraid that the pressure will be greater. ”

Xie Wan picked up the map on the table and looked at it, and said: "There is a Yingkou town under Nanyuan County, which is also relatively populous, you ask Shentian to take the time to go there and see if there is a suitable shop, and if so, rent it." ”

Luo Juqi said: "The girl doesn't have to go and see it herself? "I don't think she's such a sloppy person.

Xie Wan smiled: "No need, I've been to that place." ”

Yingkou Town is the location of the ancestral house of the Qi family, after the death of Qi Song in the previous life, the Yu family took their family to live there, Xie Wan's impression of there is even deeper than that of Huangshi Town.

Luo Ju didn't dare to ask more, so he went immediately.

Now that Luo Ju and the others are gradually coming to the road, there is no need for her to ask about such a thing as a buddy.

Most of her thoughts now are on how to promote her rice shop - making money is one of the reasons, in addition to this, she also wants to use the rice shop to break into the Beijing Division, although she has Zhao Zhen as her eyeliner, but it is always too weak, she needs to have a source of information in all aspects, and it is a more in-depth source.

Without information, it is equivalent to a blind man touching an elephant. Don't mention anything to bring down Xie Rong. Besides, even if you don't deal with Xie Rong, making these preparations is also paving the way for Xie Lang's future career,—— which industry doesn't need money now? He will be a small official in the future, with a net worth, and he will make people look up to him.

Xie Lang's career is smooth, won't the status of the Xie family's second room in everyone's minds rise with the tide?

If Xie Rong hadn't risen through the ranks in officialdom, he would not have let people ignore the fact that he was the son of a widow who remarried.

Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered that because Luo Sheng went to Cangzhou, she had been in the shop every day recently, and she hadn't been to the third room for some days.

I don't know how the Huang family has been dealing with the Wang family recently?

Making money is important, but the rear of the Xie Mansion cannot be ignored. Ever since the Wang family sent Xie Hong to Li Zi Hutong to keep an eye on her and Li Ershun's tips, she knew that the Wang family had found out the truth. According to Wang's temperament, it is impossible not to attack her, and if she does not move at the moment, she is just waiting for an opportunity.

The Wang family is her first enemy, and if in the end, the outside is not done well, and the things inside are out of control, it will be too much to lose.

With a cup of tea, she paced to the third room. (To be continued.) )
