Chapter 257: The Min Family's Back
After taking a bath and waiting for Zhao Qing to change into new clothes, Sister-in-law Zhou put away the dirty clothes she had changed and was about to throw them into the barrel, when her hand suddenly paused in the air: "...... Is the third grandmother going tomorrow? ”
If you want to get up early and leave, your clothes will definitely not dry after washing.
Along the way, they all set off around midnight.
Tomorrow?
It seems that he hasn't thought about tomorrow's arrangements yet, and Zhao Qing is speechless.
She lowered her head and took a cloth towel and gently wiped her wet hair with Xia Zhu.
The room was somewhat silent.
"Cui'er also asked the third grandmother to wait for her wife......" Cui'er reminded, "The third grandmother will wait for another day." ”
"Who is Cui'er's master?" Sister-in-law Zhou asked curiously, "Look at the appearance and dress, it looks like a fairy in the painting, at first everyone thought it was the daughter of a family, but later I found out that it was just a maid, and everyone was stunned at the time." ”
"Don't wash it, put it away first." Zhao Qing said, the topic changed again, and asked, "Don't you know Cui'er today?" ”
"I don't know."
Sister-in-law Zhou folded up the dirty clothes and wrapped them in a bag alone.
"Shopkeeper Miao still asked me who they are?" Shaking his head, his tone was full of admiration, "Even the master of the dart game is full of praise for you, I didn't expect you to make friends with such a big man in less than two days after you came to Shizhou." ”
Big shot?
Thinking of the more than 100 carts of peaches in the backyard, Zhao Qing sighed:
"I'm afraid I can't overpower the Min family, right?"
Now that Cui'er is staying, she suddenly has a very bold idea.
Can she take advantage of the momentum she has created in Shanghe today to make a big move. Skip the big dealer of the Min family, and directly find those second-level fruit merchants to sell these 200 cars of peaches in the Shizhou area?
Her peaches are on the market early, and the varieties are good. It is unique in Shizhou Mansion and absolutely competitive!
However, for a full day, all the people who came to buy peaches were ordinary people and small traders, and none of the second-level wholesalers in Shizhou showed up!
Anyone who has ever done business knows it.
Business opportunities are fleeting.
If you catch it, you catch it.
Can't catch it. Just pass by, and it will never come back to you.
I believe that the sensation caused by her peaches in Shangheji has already reached the ears of these secondary wholesalers whose noses are more sensitive than dogs, right?
If she's a secondary wholesaler here. We will do whatever it takes to seize the opportunity.
Even if you don't have time during the day, you will come to the Shunlai Inn early at night to talk to yourself, but when you come back. The inn is very lively though. But none of them came to her wholesale peaches.
What does this mean?
It shows that these secondary wholesalers are afraid of the Min family, the general distributor, and dare not buy peaches from their own hands!
Even if the profit of buying peaches from themselves is higher than the profit of buying from the Min family, they still don't dare to make this money!
During the day, Cui'er left her, and she told her vaguely about her grievances with the Min family.
Cui'er said at that time to go back to Mrs. Yuming.
Although I didn't say it explicitly, everyone knew it in their hearts.
In just a few conversations, they had already made a bargain.
Cui'er begged her to stay, and she in turn begged Cui'er's master to help sell peaches, and. Cui'er also agreed, go back and let Madame try it!
But. For a full afternoon, there was no movement on that side.
This means that Cui'er's owner can't suppress the Min family at all, and even if she comes forward, those secondary wholesalers don't dare to risk offending the Min family and do business with themselves.
Who is behind the Min family?
“…… It seems that the Min family's background in Shizhou Mansion is even bigger than I imagined. Zhao Qing sighed quietly.
Xia Zhu didn't hear clearly.
She stopped wiping her hair, looked at the figure in the mirror and asked, "What did the third grandmother say?" ”
Zhao Qing put the cloth towel aside, "It's almost, you can just pull a bun for me." ”
The master and servant packed up and pushed the door out.
Gu Changsheng and Zhao Qingzao waited outside the door.
"The downstairs is full, and the third grandmother's meal is placed in the private room on the second floor." Seeing Zhao Qing coming out, they both greeted him.
"Where's Brother Fu'er?" Zhao Qing asked.
"Downstairs, I'm chatting with the young master." Zhao Jun said, "The third grandmother will eat first, you don't have to worry, our dart masters are all downstairs, and the second young master will be fine." ”
Zhao Qing slowly came to the staircase and looked down on the wooden corridor.
In the hall, there was a lot of noise.
Most of these people she brought are some dart masters and veterans who go to the rivers and lakes, it is rare for the owner to be so generous, and will prepare such a sumptuous dinner.
And on the table by the window, Brother Fu was sitting on the shoulders of the young master, waving two small fists, talking happily.
There were also people next to him who peeled melon seeds and stuffed them into his mouth from time to time.
The young master's three-hundred-pound physique occupied half of the table, sitting there, the whole mountain, and the petite Fu Ge'er sat on his shoulder, and the whole Maitreya Buddha carried a fortune boy on his shoulder.
Zhao Qing who watched it was a little unbearable.
This Fu Ge'er is used to being galloped by them, and he likes to be carried by people the most.
"It's too chaotic downstairs, the slave beckons the second young master to come up?" Xia Zhu frowned.
“…… Just let him play. "Being in a business family, Fu Ge'er will often encounter such occasions in the future.
Zhao Qing shook his head, turned around and walked towards the private room.
According to the ancient rules, masters and slaves were not allowed to eat at the same table.
But firstly, they are away from home, and the conditions are simple, and with so many people around them, Zhao Qing can't throw herself out and set up music alone, and secondly, she is a modern person and has always had the habit of eating with colleagues.
There are many things that will be discussed when the dishes are ready.
Along the way, she was like this.
At the beginning, Gu Changsheng and Zhao Jun were killed and didn't dare to eat at the same table with Zhao Qing, there were a few missed nightstays on the way, and when they set up tents in the wild, everyone gathered around the fire to eat together, and they were used to Zhao Qing asking some things when he ate.
Several people came to the private room and sat down.
Xia Zhu beckoned Xiao Er to serve the food.
Gu Changsheng and Zhao Jun talked to Zhao Qing about the harvest of this day.
“…… The account office has just finished counting, plus the two carriages pulled away by Miss Cui'er, a total of thirteen and a half carts have been sold today, equivalent to 110,428 catties, and a total of 22,656,27 taels of silver have been collected, with an average of 240 wen a catty...... Cui'er's two carriages haven't been given the silver yet...... "Zhao Jun looked at Zhao Qing anxiously, "I don't know if this silver can be recovered?" ”
Zhao Bingxun, who stayed at the inn today to guard Peaches, is a distant relative of his.
I saw that he was excited, diligent, and sweet-mouthed, so he dared to recommend it to the third grandmother, and he did a few things alone and was very beautiful, and the third grandmother was very satisfied, so she intended to take it with her to cultivate this time.
Who knows, he actually did such a thing without permission! (To be continued.) )
