Chapter 71: Young Master Xu is down
After only one day off, Song Yaoyao sent Feng Liang to Hua'an County, the day before yesterday, the shopkeeper Su wrote that the last batch of roses this year had arrived, so she hurried up and sent someone over to buy the goods, and she was afraid that it would be gone if it was late.
Song Yaoyao didn't dare to delay, let Feng Liang go on the road early in the morning, and before leaving, he specially instructed him to collect a little more roses this time, and it was best to buy all the roses in this batch.
Although Feng Liang is a little straight, he is not stupid, he is very honest and credible, Song Yaoyao took a fancy to him at the beginning and wanted him to be in charge of raw material procurement.
Zhu Jingxing and Feng Liang were gone, and Song Yaoyao checked the remaining raw materials again, talcum powder and jasmine seeds needed to be purchased again, and she had to prepare everything before the female workers returned.
After running around for two days, Song Yaoyao finally made up the goods, Song Yaoyao originally wanted to take a day off, but was asked out by Xiuwen.
It is still the private room of Wangjiang Tower, and Xu Lianhua and Xiuwen have been waiting for it early.
I haven't seen him for a month, Xu Lianhua looks a lot haggard, he has lost a lot of weight, and the clothes that originally fit him now look a little empty, and the whole person seems to be shrouded in black gas, and he is a lot overcast.
Song Yaoyao looked at him, although he was strange in his heart, but he still didn't talk nonsense, but just said politely: "Young Master Xu, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Xu Lianhua looked at her, her eyes were blue, and her eyes were bloodshot, how many days had she not slept well!
"Shopkeeper Song, since Zhao Yang's goods have been shipped, is it time to put the cooperation between you and me on the agenda."
Song Yaoyao was stunned, it wasn't because of Xu Lianhua's request, her cooperation with the Xu family was set early, and she had been preparing for this in the past two days.
What surprised her was Xu Lianhua's attitude, he used to be always high-minded and unhurried, even when talking about business, he looked like he was strategizing, and he had only a lot of greetings and politeness, and it was really abnormal to be in such a hurry as today.
Xu Wei felt Song Yaoyao's doubts, and Xu Lianhua explained: "Something happened at home, and I can't stay in Song'an County for too long, so I won't waste time saying those things on the scene, everything is simple and clear." ”
Song Yaoyao nodded, secretly guessing in his heart that Xu Lianhua was so embarrassed because of something.
Is a family member seriously ill? It's not like, there is only anxiety and worry in his expression, but there is no sadness and sorrow.
Blocked business? It's not like it, and it doesn't have that kind of struggling decline.
The whole person is like a beast that has been invaded by others, restless and angry.
Could it be a wealthy family's secret, bloody family property dispute?
Song Yaoyao turned a few corners in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Since this is the case, then I won't delay Xu Gongzi's time, let's talk about it directly." ”
Xu Lianhua breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "Although Zhao Yanghui has the pearl in front of him, Dongqi is different from Dasheng, most of Dongqi's fat powder flows from Dasheng, and the domestic market itself is not saturated, and the fat powder of Song's shopkeeper is easy to spread out there." ”
Seeing Song Yaoyao nodding frequently, he continued: "But the domestic market is different, the domestic market has basically been divided between the Lin family and the Xiang family, in the past few years, there has never been a company that can be equal to these two, so I have no bottom in my heart about whether the fat powder of the Song shopkeeper can sell well." ”
Song Yaoyao frowned, she naturally knew about these early on, but she always believed that with her strength and the financial resources of the Xu family, the Lin Xiang family would only become the cornerstone of her success.
"I believe that Xu Gongzi told me that this is not to destroy his prestige before he starts, so what is Xu Gongzi's intention, you might as well say it directly."
Xu Lianhua didn't expect Song Yaoyao to be so keen and straightforward, and paused slightly and said: "Originally, you and I agreed that the Xu family would buy goods from you and sell them in our own shop, but now this plan has to change slightly." ”
Song Yaoyao endured his uneasiness and said, "I want to hear about it." ”
Xu Lianhua was a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid that the fourteen northern states that were originally scheduled to purchase goods from Shopkeeper Song can't be done here, and I can only promise Shopkeeper Song that all the rouge shops under the name of the Xu family in the seventeen mansions of Wanzhou can continue to cooperate with Shopkeeper Song." ”
The more he talked about the back, the more ashamed Xu Lianhua's tone became, businessmen attach the most importance to reputation, especially a wealthy businessman like the Xu family, sometimes he would rather suffer a loss than smash his own signboard.
Xu Lianhua came to the battle to change the hexagram, presumably something happened in the family, except for Wanzhou, where he was no longer in charge.
Song Yaoyao naturally wouldn't accuse Xu Lianhua of treachery, these days she also realized that with her current scale, it is indeed very difficult to supply a wide range of markets, not to mention that the house she lives in now is still a kind gift from Xu Lianhua, she is not the kind of person who forgets her righteousness.
In this case, starting from Wanzhou, it may not be a good thing to spread to the whole country step by step, at least it gives her a lot of buffer time, so that she can improve her production process, achieve less loss, and higher output.
Song Yaoyao was "embarrassed" for a while, and then replied reluctantly: "Since Xu Gongzi has his own difficulties, then I will not be strong, everything will be according to Xu Gongzi's meaning, I just hope that Xu Gongzi can be true to his words in the future, and stop being so capricious." ”
Xu Lianhua's cheeks were flushed, he had taken over the family business for six or seven years, and it had always been smooth, and he had never had such a moment when he was overstretched by the enemy on his back and back.
Therefore, although Song Yaoyao was not polite, he was still grateful: "Thank you for your understanding, I can assure you that this kind of thing will never happen again in the future." ”
Song Yaoyao nodded and said, "I hope so." ”
Xu Lianhua solved the big problem in his heart, the whole person relaxed a lot, he even made the worst plan before he came, Song Yaoyao gave up the Xu family and looked for a partner again, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to him.
Originally, the Xu family's bulk business did not have a second room, but now that he is in power, most of the shops under his hands have been taken back, and only some small shops with meager profits remain, and even those shopkeepers who have followed him for many years have been transferred away by their fathers, and they have been dismissed. Now he is only an empty shell, and the inside is empty.
Song Yaoyao's business is already the most promising and profitable business for him, and he really doesn't want to lose her as a partner.
Song Yaoyao also wanted to talk about some specific matters of cooperation, Xu Lianhua said: "It is said that Wangjianglou has a new dish called Flower Basket Guiyu, this Guiyu is specially transported from other places, the meat is delicious, fresh and fragrant, I have been hungry for several days, today Song Shopkeeper is also there, just taste whether this dish is really as delicious as rumored." ”
Song Yaoyao saw that it was indeed time for dinner, so he responded, but he just troubled Xu Lianhua to send a small servant to the house to say something.
The service of Wangjianglou is very good, a table of dishes is only half a pillar of incense in the time to be all on it, Xu Lianhua changed the arrogant posture of the previous few times, and is very approachable to tell some interesting stories and anecdotes with Song Yaoyao, he is very eloquent, and he is well-informed, the story told is very attractive, Song Yaoyao eats this meal very well.
