Chapter 372: Blooming (5)
Jiang Wanmu listened to Mu Gen talk about those business matters carefully, and a relaxed smile appeared on her face. She smiled and said to Mugen: "That is, everyone's business this year is better than in previous years." Mu Gen looked at the smile on Jiang Wanmu's face, he smiled and nodded, "I and Chief Steward Su are passing by the street now, and our peers are very close to the two of us, they say that we are not greedy, and we care about the life and death of others. ”
Jiang Wanmu smiled slightly and looked at him, that day she proposed to notify her peers before the auspicious clothes were put on the market, so that everyone had a bottom in their hearts. Mu Gen still had a worried look on his face that day, and he reminded her in a low voice: "Sister, peers are enemies." Jiang Wanmu looked at him with a smile and said, "The business in Nancheng, our two shops can't finish it. It's better for everyone to do it together, and if we prosper a street, we can also follow the prosperity. ”
Mu Gen's face was full of excitement, he smiled at Jiang Wanmu, who was smiling slightly, and he continued: "Sister, Lin Zi heard the news that the Jiang family privately traded with the largest fabric supply and demand bank in the capital, and had taken away eighty percent of the cloth from the cloth store. It was only at this time that this incident occurred, and an old man in the industry was rambling behind his back, saying that the proprietor acted so boldly, and when the cloth shops came to order in the spring, there would be a big disaster if there was not enough cloth supply. Hahaha, it's no wonder that the Jiang family store dares to sell fabrics at a low price, they think they have a lot of stock. ”
Jiang Wanmu's brows furrowed slightly when she heard this, the Jiang family mentioned eighty percent of the largest fabric in the capital, and such a large number of shipments was almost equal to the amount of fabric that the counterparts in Nancheng would add up to next spring. She hurriedly asked, "Is it true that Lin Zi said this news?" Mu Gen looked at Jiang Wanmu's expression, and he asked in a low voice: "After the store recruited two new clerks, I will let Lin Zi be promoted to steward according to the proposal of the chief steward, and you have also nodded on this matter." You also said that he was well-informed during such periods. Letting him run more outside and have more experience is good for the business in the store.
Lin Zi is not a person who talks nonsense, but he said that he will inquire more carefully in the next two days. I look at the good business this year, and the fabrics left in our two shops. There are quite a few these days. We do what you say. Let the embroidery girls in the store hurry up and make some cushions that look auspicious. Stuff it with a rag of crumbs that you have saved over the day. Now the cushion business is good, and there are still people ordering, and the embroidery lady in the store is too busy now. Everyone thinks business is good. You can have a good New Year's holiday, and everyone can't wait to stay there at night and continue to work. ”
Jiang Wanmu smiled and looked at Mu Gen with a radiant face, he was now a dignified man, and there was something in his words with a confident look on his face. There is no longer the shrinking demeanor that I developed when I was a subordinate when I came out to do work. Jiang Wanmu nodded with a smile and said, "We will never treat the people who follow us badly. We must let everyone have a good New Year's Festival. Brother, you will tell Lin Zi behind your back tomorrow, don't inquire about that matter again, the more you know about that kind of thing, the easier it is to cause trouble. ”
Mu Gen listened to Jiang Wanmu's reminder, he looked at her in surprise and nodded slowly, "I understand, I asked him to go back to the store these days to do things." Jiang Wanmu frowned slightly, she looked at Mu Gen and said, "Brother, you quickly write to Fang Zheng, tell him that you must buy more fabrics, and remind him that the price of fabrics in Nancheng is low this year, and there are a few shops where customers quarrel over the lack of goods." Needless to say, he will have calculations in his heart. ”
Mu Gen looked at Jiang Wanmu's expression, and when he saw her figure walking into the room, his expression was slightly stunned and he became a little worried. Jiang Wanmu entered the room and brought a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone and put it on the table, motioning for Mu Gen to start writing a letter, she looked at him with a somewhat hesitant look, and said with a smile: "Brother, although Fang Zheng and we have always been friends, I am a woman, and it is impossible for me to talk to a man in the letter. It's just right for you to tell him that gossip, and I'm sure he understands it. ”
Mu Gen looked at Jiang Wanmu, who was grinding ink for him, and he whispered, "Sister, is there anything wrong with the news that Lin Zidi heard?" Jiang Wanmu also whispered to him: "Brother, in terms of doing business, I am not as shrewd and clever as Fangzheng. I just have a gut feeling that something might be wrong next spring when it comes to fabrics. You gossiped in your letter, mentioning to him the fact that several shops of the Jiang family were shipping goods at low prices in large quantities, and about the quarrels between the guests over the fabrics. In addition, Ji Yan and I will go to the south in the spring next year, and let them and their husbands and wives tidy up the yard in the central and southern regions. ”
Mugen lowered her head and wrote a letter, Jiang Wanmu stood up and walked into the room, seeing that the three children were already a little staggered on the couch, she smiled and pressed the three children into the quilt, and watched the three children fall asleep quickly. Jiang Wanmu walked out of the room, Mu Gen had already written the letter, and he looked at Jiang Wanmu who came out: "The three children are asleep?" After Jiang Wanmu nodded lightly, he walked to the door and opened the door a little open.
Jiang Wanmu sat at the table and glanced at the letter written by Mu Gen, there was really not a single wasted word in his letter, and the idle things were written to him without a trace of interest. Mu Gen sat back in the direction of the door, he looked at Jiang Wanmu and asked, "Is it okay to write like this?" Jiang Wanmu took a closer look and had to agree that Mugen had indeed written down everything she wanted to say, she nodded and said, "Write it like this." The more my brother's words are written, the more powerful they become, and this year's courtyard door couplet is written by my brother. ”
Mu Gen smiled and shook his head when he heard this, and said: "Then you still leave the job to Shi'er and Feiyang brothers and sisters to write, these neighbors, but they have been looking forward to seeing our new tricks in the courtyard door couplet this year." Jiang Wanmu also laughed when she heard Mu Gen's words, last year's couplet at the courtyard gate, Jiang Feiyang brother and sister plus Shang Mingshi and the three of them went to the house, Shang Mingshi wrote the name of the couplet, Jiang Feiyang brother and sister wrote the left and right couplets, three people and three fonts, the common point is that they are all children's characters.
Jiang Wanmu was overjoyed at the time, she smiled and asked Mu Gen and Zhang Niu to paste it up, after this paste, the people who came and went were smiling, there was no couplet of the courtyard door of that family, like the couplet of the courtyard door of their house, it seemed so joyful. Jiang Wanmu heard Mu Gen's smile, and she said with an interesting face: "Brother, do you think you will learn from our yard and let the children in the family write couplets this year to please you?" After hearing this, Mugen nodded with a smile and said: "I don't know about other houses, the man who lives on our right is in charge, a while ago, the two of us met together, he smiled and said that outside the door of his yard, this year will be as lively as our family last year." ”
Jiang Wanmu and Mu Gen were talking in the room, waiting to hear Su Huan's good news. They waited for the Lin woman first, after the Lin woman entered the door, she looked at the two people in the room, her face showed a little embarrassed, she first smiled and said some things about the embroidery girls' work, and then slowly said: "Girl, today's show steward came to find the girl, and left a message for me to tell the girl." There were so many people in the room just now that I was too embarrassed to speak. ”
Jiang Wanmu looked at her embarrassed look, smiled and said, "Manager Lin, you talk about things directly, Sister Xiu is doing things steadily, and the things she asked you to convey must be urgent." The woman Lin breathed a sigh of relief, bowed her head and said, "Steward Xiu said that Dongcheng Cloth Store urgently needs a well-written man's font, and asked the girl if she has a doorway, and asked for a man's well-written handwriting." I thought about the men's font used in the shop under the girl's name, all written by Ah Niu and the two young masters, and I really didn't know how to open this mouth to the girl. ”
Jiang Wanmu looked at her red face, and she smiled and said, "Oh, that's it." You go out with me tomorrow, and today in the bookstore, a few people just helped me write some words, because the ink was not dry, so I didn't take it home directly. You send it to the store manager in Dongcheng tomorrow, and tell them that you are not allowed to lose a font for embroidery girls. Woman Lin looked at Jiang Wanmu with an excited look on her face and said, "Girl, are you a prophet?" ”
'Poof' 'Poof' Jiang Wanmu and Mu Gen couldn't help laughing, Mu Gen smiled and said: "The girl can not predict the words of the prophet, our life is not more comfortable than now, at least we will not wait until others calculate the head, only to know that there is such a thing." Jiang Wanmu said with a smile: "It's just that when everyone is idle to talk, everyone thinks that I have two cloth shops, and they can't bear to ask me to ask for words in front of others, so they write some words for me one by one." However, I promised to make auspicious clothes for their husband and wife for free, and now the Dongcheng cloth shop wants to use their characters, so it is better to simply take over the work of making clothes. ”
After Lady Lin left with a smile, Mu Gen looked at Jiang Wanmu and reminded in a low voice: "Sister, Mrs. Chu treats you kindly, but if you let her shop make clothes for others for free, it's still a little bad to talk about it." Jiang Wanmu's eyebrows and eyes opened with a smile, and she said with a smile: "Don't worry, with such a free job, Dongcheng Cloth Shop will definitely be willing to follow." My sister-in-law is a shrewd person, and she knows that I won't let her suffer, after all, she has a lot of expenses for entertainment, and if she takes over this business, she will only improve the business of her cloth shop. And we have to take over this business, and we have to worry about it being too popular. ”
Mu Gen thought about it and understood, he smiled and said: "It's because I think too much, Lord Chu's family is your closest relative, so there is no good male font in the cloth shop, so I don't go to the bookstore to look for you, but directly find the yard." Jiang Wanmu chuckled and said; Only your own family will be so unkind. Su Huan had already pushed the door open, came in and asked with a smile, "Who is your own family?" The two people in the room looked at him with a radiant and happy appearance, and the two said at the same time: "You and Sister-in-law Su are our own family." ”
Su Huan said to Jiang Wanmu and Mu Gen with a happy face: "She agreed, let me go and tell her family tomorrow." I'm going back now to tell my mother the good news. After Su Huan finished speaking, she turned around to leave, Jiang Wanmu hurriedly reminded him: "Tomorrow, let someone help you choose a few auspicious days, and then you go and talk to her family." Su Huan walked to the door and slammed directly into the door, seeing that Jiang Wanmu hurriedly said to Mu Gen: "Brother, you go back with him, I see that he is already happy and can't tell the direction."
