Volume 4 Drunk Cold Wine A Cup 7, Those Who Know People Are Wise, Those Who Know Themselves Are Clear 3

The two tables are placed in the same hall, but the men and women are separated by a screen. The sandalwood screen with colorful glass and ten beautiful pictures is not very shading, and it can look at the figure of the person - only not really, let alone the sound - what is said over there, but it is really heard here.

Xia Xiaoman listened to Dou Xuyuan's words, held the hand of the porcelain bowl for a moment, raised his eyebrows slightly, and then continued to turn the bowl as if nothing happened, carefully studying the tangled patterns, but quietly stretched out his ears and continued to listen.

The Dou family doesn't say that the wealth rivals the country, it is also a rich family. Ice is a large consumption item in the summer, from the middle class to the palace, the consumption is very amazing, regardless of the outside market, it is just an errand to prohibit the summer ice to worship, and the annual silver is not less than 200,000 taels of silver - this is the central financial allocation, the income that cannot be beaten.

If the Dou family wants to ask the next family for financing in order to acquire a small porcelain kiln, hey, this joke is colder than the Dou family's ice.

It's just a power-for-money deal under the guise of legitimate business. Take people's money and eliminate disasters with others.

Xia Xiaoman has seen a lot of such disguised bribes for her. At the beginning, I went to a branch of the head office with the manager, and saw the packaging boxes supplied by a packaging box factory in the packaging material warehouse, which was extremely poor in quality, overprint deviation, uneven nail distance and even the layered glue of the face paper, those cartons are often prone to problems It does not miss all of them, the most hateful thing is that the load-bearing is not qualified, and the product is loaded into only two boxes and a stack, and the following boxes are piled up, and two of the ten cartons can be used are more!

They should have grasped the big problem, but the branch manager came out to explain. Said that this carton factory is the local public security bureau head of the brother-in-law opened, when the factory was built, because of the family business and the background is not hard, often blackmailed by the head of the snake, the factory glass was smashed how many times, and later people set up a line to meet the brother-in-law, playing the signboard of cooperation. Every year, he spends 1.5 million yuan to buy his family's cardboard boxes, turning this brother-in-law into a supplier to the factory. The relationship is very good, and if someone comes to make trouble, the public security bureau directly sent out two police cars to stop at the gate of the factory ,—— all destroyed.

It's just a deal, it depends on your cost accounting,—— if you think that every time the head snake comes to smash and scrap the land money, it will cost more than 1.5 million, then it doesn't matter if even one of these inferior cartons can't be used.

The Dou family's move is almost the same meaning. If you are one of the shareholders, you have the responsibility and obligation to escort "our" business.

It's just that the Dou family has a Zhizhou as a backer in Meizhou, so what do you need from the Nian family?

On the floor on the side of the screen, Nian Liang also took the blue and white glazed porcelain bowl and looked at it carefully for a long time, the corners of his mouth were raised, and he smiled: "This quality is really good, Dou Siye has a good eye." Receiving this porcelain kiln must be a prosperous business, forgive me to Dou Siye first. It's just that although I have skimmed books for a few years, I am not really good at business, and I only went to Meizhou to recuperate from my injuries, Dou Siye's business. Forgive me for not being able to help. ”

Dou Xuyuan's face did not change at all, his smile was still the same, and he said, "The sixth master is humble!" In fact, this business is nothing, we can do it with such rough people, not to mention a well-educated person like the sixth master! The sixth master can rest assured, Dou's business is also ordinary, it doesn't cost anything, and the sixth master is just asking for some capital, which is counted as a share. The sixth master is the uncle of the country and the noble man of gold, where dare to let the sixth master work. Then send an account office to supervise the accounts. Dou didn't dare to miss the sixth master's ......"

He paused as he spoke, pointing to a few large businessmen present. said: "I'm ashamed to say it, I didn't dare to ask the sixth master for help, but in fact, these friends of Dou Mou had some accidents and couldn't raise money for a while; Moreover, these people are also local, far away from Meizhou, and Dou is not good for them to pull the long line. ”

The businessmen who were accused laughed and said: "Uncle Guo, the fourth master has never lied, he did ask a certain family before, but a certain business in Yaozhou still occupies the silver......"

“…… I haven't seen this porcelain at the beginning, and I didn't dare to say anything, but now I see it, it's really a profitable business! It's a pity that the turnover is inconvenient for a while, otherwise I would have to enter the last ......"

“…… Uncle Guo still can't believe in the fourth master's methods? ”

“…… If Uncle Guo has plenty of money and dares to raise a guarantee, this business will definitely make a lot of money! ”

Nian Liang only listened, rubbing the bowl repeatedly, but laughed silently.

Because Emperor Taizu of the Great Qin Dynasty insisted on attaching equal importance to "agriculture and industry" and refuted the argument of "emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business", although the status of merchants in the Great Qin Dynasty was not very high, it was far from being as lowly as in previous dynasties. However, in the end, there are still some readers who always believe in their hearts that "everything is inferior, only reading is high", such as Ji Songshu.

The Ji family also has a shop and a business, and mainly relies on renting to make a living, although his mother takes care of it, Ji Songshu has never touched his hands, and he doesn't know anything, but he doesn't dare to discriminate against businessmen, but if he can take a career in office, he will never engage in business, and if someone persuades him to do business, he will still despise him to some extent.

When these people mentioned that they wanted to sell this bowl for money, he suddenly felt that the bowl was vulgar, so he put it down, glanced at the young man around him, and remembered that he said that he didn't know how to do business, so he whispered: "Sage Yun, 'The gentleman knows what he knows, he doesn't know what he knows, and he doesn't know what he says; What can be said to be can, can't be said to be can't, and it can be done. ''Don't lie to yourself inside, don't deceive yourself outside', the same is true of what my cousin said and did in business. ”

Nian Liang glanced at him helplessly, barely maintained a smile, and whispered to him, "Thank you cousin for your teachings." Remember. ”

Dou Xuyuan squinted his eyes, wiped the short beard on his lips, and kept paying attention to Nian Liang's expression, seeing Ji Songshu's face showing disdain and saying something to Nian Liang, Nian Liang was silent, he couldn't help but turn over in his heart, and listened to a few helpers who said almost, so he waved his hand and smiled: "Thank you for your love, Dou really doesn't have the ability you say, but Dou has a 'dare to take responsibility' - Dou Mou doesn't care, if he doesn't manage well, he will never dare to involve his friends, and how much he loses will be Dou's." Sixth master, you see ......"

If you earn a bonus, you don't have to worry if you lose it - that's all the talk. It's already considered to be an explicit delivery of money. On the other side of the screen, Xia Xiaoman put down the porcelain bowl, thanked Aunt Han with a smile and highly recommended a dish of fried deer breast, and the little maid came over to cloth the vegetables, and tasted two bites, even if you don't love it, you should praise it with two sentences. The heart is hard, but it's hard to be gracious, the more so. Exceed......

I only listened to Nian Liang and smiled: "Fourth Master Dou is righteous and thin, I really admire it." Forgive me for taking advantage of a big advantage for no reason......"

Dou Xuyuan hurriedly said: "The sixth master has tormented Dou. Where is it cheap, Dou is really short of silver now, he begged the sixth master with a cheeky face, the sixth master was willing to help, Dou was too late to be grateful, what else was there to say! ”

Nian Liang waved his hand and said: "Fourth Master Dou is polite, and I am grateful for my kindness." Let's talk about it. This is indeed a rare deal, but it is not forgiving, it is really helpless. Dou Siye said silver, forgive me and talk about this, this is really to go to Meizhou to recuperate, I didn't bring any silver money with me, I am afraid it will be difficult to raise the capital needed by Dou Siye for a while, and it should be at this time. Isn't it to deceive Fourth Master Dou? The fourth master is so benevolent and righteous, how can it be done to be a villain! ”

Dou Xuyuan was speechless for a while, and several businessmen were also embarrassed, no one expected Nian Liang to say "I have no money"!! The children of all families really have no money, and they have to say that they are rich to save face! But. If you say you don't have any money......

- The ** of the ten is asking you for money.

Several businessmen glanced at each other, and they all secretly shook their heads and smacked their tongues, black, it's really black, look at this country's uncle's politeness and kindness, it is actually a lion with a big mouth, and he refuses to catch a big amount of money, and he is ready to ask for it directly? ! Some people looked at Dou Xuyuan sympathetically, and looked at how Dou Xuyuan got down this step, but the Dou family had a big business. Since I want to befriend my uncle in this country. I'm afraid it's not bad for that bit of silver.

It's not the first time that Dou Xuyuan has been pouted by Nian Yu, and he learned a lesson from when he gave away the ice money. Knowing that it was not possible to send money directly, he sent the lotus chair with a roundabout tactic, and sure enough, he accepted it in the new year. I thought that this trick of buying shares was roundabout enough, and the words were satisfactory enough, and Nian Yu would definitely be able to push the boat down the river. Outcome...... Pouted again.

His big eyes circled around Nian Liang's body twice, and his heart seemed to be slippery at all, and he had to think about it in the long run. He gaggled his mouth, smiled reluctantly, and said, "It's Dou who is abrupt." This one...... The sixth master is not to blame......"

Nian Liang didn't say anything else, but smiled: "How dare you." Forgive me, thank you for the good intentions of Dou Siye. As he spoke, he took the teacup and toasted Dou Xuyuan with tea instead of wine.

Dou Xuyuan hurriedly stood up with the wine, hehe, drank it all, lit up the bottom of the cup, and then sat down, carrying chopsticks and ordering the dishes on the table, beckoning everyone to eat.

Everyone had just recovered from the embarrassment, and they were busy opening new topics, and Dou Xuyuan called a different singer to play and sing a new tune, and it was lively again for a while.

Talking over there, Ji Songshu turned his head, nodded to Nian Liang, and said in a low voice: "Yes." You can't ask for richness, just what I like. ”

Nian Liang smiled and asked him rhetorically: "If you are rich, the person who holds the whip, my cousin is willing to do it?" ”

Ji Songshu was stunned, frowned, and said, "Although it is the words of a saint...... But the saint said, 'If you don't get it by your way, you won't get it anywhere.' ’”

He successfully plunged into his own world again, pondered for a moment, muttered a sage's words, until a new dish was served, Dou Xuyuan spat and introduced it, and the waiter came over to help Bu Cai, Ji Songshu stopped and blocked his mouth with a spoonful of vegetables.

Nian Liang looked at him helplessly, laughed and shook his head all the way while listening, and finally had to praise: "Cousin is smart." ”

The uncle of the Ji family was chanting the scriptures outside the screen, and the eldest lady of the Ji family was chanting the scriptures inside.

The singer sang a song "Rich and Rich" outside, the pipa was pulled urgently, and the tone was also high, and she really sang the rich and noble sound of "coral hundred feet and pearls". However, Ji Lingshu shook his head when he heard it, the Tao is the artistic conception is wrong, this song is not rich and noble, it should be sung slowly and rectally in response to the situation - to metaphor wealth and longevity.

Aunt Han used to play the piano well and fascinated Dou Siye, quite good at music theory, because of her personality, what she loved was the rich and prosperous tune full of gold and jade, so she didn't think much of what Ji Lingshu said. Although Ji Lingshu was a guest, Aunt Han treated her as a child because she was very young, and she didn't take it seriously, but also to show her own ability, so she refuted it with a smile.

This is good, Ji Lingshu didn't like her very much, and when he heard her refute, he became more and more unhappy, so he also refuted it.

Because at first, the two of them were slow and leisurely, and Xia Xiaoman didn't like to see Aunt Han. didn't try to stop it, while sticking his ears to pay attention to the movement outside, he and Ji Qi's had a match to discuss which dish was delicious.

Who knows that this moment is not careful, the argument of Ji Lingshu has been upgraded, from the past to the music of the current dynasty to the piano masters, and finally the natural Sanskrit sound has come up, and it has led to countless poems and songs. smashed Aunt Han dizzy.

Aunt Han's face was a little twitched, but fortunately, the makeup was thick. I couldn't see it, so I had to smile reluctantly, saying that the eldest lady was knowledgeable, and then put aside her and talked to Xia Xiaoman - in comparison, she was still a tasteless and gentle person who made her more down-to-earth.

Xia Xiaoman had a headache. In the past, Ji Lingshu was probably in the Eternal Life Residence, or when only she and Ji Lingshu were there, no one talked about the rules and regulations, but now there is Ji Qi's sister-in-law. is higher than her, so it's not good for her to come forward and speak. Xia Xiaoman discussed the dishes, and said a few words around the bend with Ji Qi's family, signaling her to come forward to curb Ji Lingshu, lest Yi pull the topic to Mars.

Ji Qi's family is used to the brother and sister talking loudly, and they respect the two of them from the bottom of their hearts, so they don't feel anything wrong at all now, besides. She was not good at words, and if she were to stop them from talking, she would probably be thrown into the Pacific Ocean in less than two and a half sentences.

Xia Xiaoman saw that she had no intention of making a move, so she had to strangle Tang Seng by herself.

Seeing that Ji Lingshu had a brief pause, Xia Xiaoman rushed in at the right time and pulled Ji Lingshu's hand with a smile. He pointed to the blue and white glazed porcelain that had just been confiscated and asked her for identification.

Ji Lingshu paused, looked at the porcelain bowl, and said with a smile: "The fetus is fine, the glaze is green, it is good, only this Qingbai Yuan is the most elegant, but it is a pity that this texture is vulgar, it is good to use Lan Gui alone, and the tangled branch lotus looks slightly messy, the so-called poetry cloud: grinding for ......"

Xia Xiaoman immediately cut it off. Laughing: "Well." I'm also thinking it's better to keep it simple. Then he pointed to the new soup on the table and said, "Miss Cousin, come and taste this soup, I taste it is a good place." I just don't know what this water is, I just drink it indiscriminately, I can't taste what kind of water it is, Miss Biao looks at it. - Aunt Han, is this the water of Shenhu Lake? ”

Aunt Han hurriedly said: "Yes! In my house, I only drink the water of Shenhu Lake. Even when I came out, the boat also prepared a large bucket of lake water, and I used that water for cooking and soup. The most fragrant. ”

Ji Lingshu was interrupted like this, completely forgot the previous sound of music, completely followed Xia Xiaoman's train of thought, took a spoon and tasted it, shook his head and smiled: "I can't taste it either." The water is still clean and the taste is real......"

Xia Xiaoman interrupted again, and said that he was hooking her like this, Ji Lingshu also woke up, he was a little excited about the song before, and now he also knew that Xia Xiaoman was cutting off her words, so she obediently shut up.

And so the meal went on in harmony.

*

This table lasted nearly two hours before it ended, and although it was not cooperated, it was still very pleasant overall. When the banquet was dismissed, Nian Liang borrowed the introduction to thank Dou Xuyuan for the lotus chair, and first proposed that it was really valuable and wanted to buy it with silver.

Dou Xuyuan has been rolling in the mall for more than 20 years, and what he fights every day is scheming. If you don't try to speak plainly, he will be a little awe when you are an inscrutable master, and if you go around in circles with him, he will be able to react very quickly. He heard that Nian Liang wanted the drawings in these two sentences, and his heart was dark, and his heart said, the original way he was slippery and not sticky, and now it seems that he is afraid that he is still waiting for me, but he also wants the drawings to make a big deal - in such eyes, where are the people who keep saying that they can't do business? !

If he really had drawings at this time, he would definitely offer them without saying a word, after all, compared to what he wanted to do, this lotus treasure chair was really not worth mentioning - expensive is expensive, but how many lame people in the world are full of money?!

It's a pity that he didn't.

It was a coincidence, a Tatar merchant wanted to go north by water, but the water had not thawed two days ago, and the boatman refused to go, so he stayed in the Chouren Mansion, because he had a speculative conversation with Dou Xuyuan, so that he could see these two chairs. Dou Xuyuan saw the business opportunity at a glance and wanted to buy the merchant's drawings. The merchant was not stupid, so he naturally refused. Dou Xuyuan retreated to the next best, because he said that there were elders in the family who were disabled, so he bought both of his chairs. I thought that such a thing was just a delicate trick, and I could imitate it by finding a carpenter to study it carefully, but I didn't expect to see a clue now.

Dou Xuyuan secretly scolded the group of carpenters for being wasted in his heart, delaying his big business, looking at Nian Liang helplessly, and bluntly said that there was no plan. It's rare for him to tell the truth once, but I don't know if Nian Liang will believe it.

Nian forgive didn't say much straightforwardly, and when he heard him say this, he didn't look for any steps, so he just smiled, changed the topic, thanked him again and then said goodbye.

———— doesn't count as a word count divider————

PS: The carton thing is real, although it's not my original company. One and a half million is not a false number either.

The cost of packaging in the food industry is very high, for example, most of my original company are five-layer corrugated boxes, and the annual carton cost is about 17 million.
