"Original price?" Xu Yuan looked suspicious, approached Shen and said softly: "Could it be that it is an old accumulation, the color must be not right......"

"Boss Shen rest assured, the goods of our Tianxianglou must be good goods in the season. The reason why we supply the goods at the original price is because we want to sell them at your store in Kyoto. Sun Zhi said this, paused, and saw the thoughtful expression on Shen Zhi's face, so he smiled again: "This matter is a long story, can you invite a few bosses to sit in the temple and talk?" ”

"Can cochineal be supplied at the original price?" Xu Yuan asked.

Sun Zhi and Wang Xiu glanced at each other, then nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Tianxianglou really lives up to its reputation, since that's the case, let's talk about it together." Xu Yuan touched Shen's arm with his elbow.

"Okay." Shen nodded in agreement.

Several people sat in a gazebo in Xianyunguan for a long time, and agreed on many details of the supply and many problems of consignment. When talking about signing the coupon, Wang Xiu said: "Boss Shen said that the Shen family sister has a formula for rose-colored lipstick, and I think that before signing the coupon, the formula should be checked first." ”

Seeing Shen Zhu's hesitation, Wang Xiu said again: "Even if we want to cooperate, we should trust each other......

Xu Yuan said with a smile: "Brother Wang, in the business field, there are rules, and it is really difficult for you to check the formula." This fat formula has been shown to you, if you regret not signing the coupon, won't Boss Shen lose a lot? ”

"That's not as good as this, this place is not far from Lucheng, let's go with Boss Shen and go to Boss Shen's store to see how the lipstick prepared by Grandsister Shen is?" Sun Zhi proposed.

The people of Tianxianglou were really cautious, but fortunately, they were prepared. Shen nodded and said: "Brother Sun's proposal is very good, then I will invite you to Lucheng as a guest below." One is to give me some pointers for my shop, and the other is to taste the food of our Lucheng. ”

The group came down from Niutou Mountain, and they all drove their cars and horses straight to the agarwood fat powder shop in Lucheng.

It is not easy to hide from Tianxianglou, a leader in the industry. Fortunately, Ling Li has been in Lucheng for many years, and in order to support Lu Chun's family, he set up a fat powder shop in the city, which is run by Lu Chun's brother. Because he missed Shen Chan, he named this shop Agarwood Ji (Shen Tong Shen). Now, Shen has returned with Ling Li's token, and it is reasonable for the Lu brothers to call him the boss.

The rose-colored lipstick was indeed blended by Shen Zhuo and the perfumer against a rouge called "Revlon" in Shen Chan's early incense-making notes. Sun Zhi and Wang Xiu were full of praise after seeing the samples prepared by Agarwood Ji.

As a result, Sun Zhi officially signed a coupons for supply and consignment sales on behalf of Tianxianglou and Agarwood Ji.

Ten days after the signing of the bonds, the first batch of red and blue flowers arrived for delivery. The incense makers of Agarwood Kee began to make "Revlon" on a large scale, and the color of the finished product was very different from the previous trial samples.

Shen Zhi went to Sun Zhi with the finished product and proposed that the color difference was caused by the color problem of red and blue flowers. Sun Zhi looked at the finished product, his face was extremely ugly, "Boss Shen, the ones we Tianxianglou sent to Agarwood are all high-grade red and blue flowers, there must be something wrong with your blending process." Besides, there are so many materials needed to blend 'Revlon', how can you determine that there is a problem with the red and blue flowers? ”

"The other ingredients are all the materials used in the preparation of the samples, and our perfumers have checked them one by one, but the red and blue flowers are new. There is such a big problem with the finished product, and the loss is our Agarwood Record. I came this time just to find out what went wrong with the process of picking, drying and transporting the red and blue flowers, not to find trouble with Tianxianglou. Shen said sincerely.

After listening to Shen's explanation, Sun Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, "What does Boss Shen mean is to take a trip to Rui Beast Mountain?" ”

"Only by taking the perfumer on the spot can we find out the crux of the problem."

Perfumers inspect raw materials, which is the norm in the industry. It is also reasonable for Shen Zhu to make this request. Sun Zhi didn't think much about it, but just persuaded: "Now that Nanyue is at war with Xili, although Tianxianglou can ensure that Boss Shen can enter and exit Huifeng Ridge safely, it can't guarantee your safety in Rui Beast Mountain, so if you stop production for the time being, and wait for the situation to calm down......"

Brother Sun's kindness Shen understood. Agarwood is not as rich as Tianxianglou's family background, and now a lot of pre-sale coupons have been signed, and I am afraid that I will go bankrupt if I default. As the saying goes, wealth and wealth are sought in danger, and Brother Sun is also a businessman, so he naturally understands Shen's mood at the moment. Shen said with anxiety on his face.

"That's okay, five days later, the Xili general, who has a friendship with Tianxianglou, will be on duty to return to Fengling, and Boss Shen will go back and prepare early, and I will send someone to pick you out."

The matter was negotiated, and fortunately it was not disgraced. Shen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. In the past few days, he has been running back and forth to make friends with all kinds of spice merchants and fat powder merchants, and privately found out that only the goods of Tianxianglou can enter and exit freely in Huifeng Ridge, so he racked his brains to design countless bureaus close to Sun Zhi and Wang Xiu, but fortunately, Xianyunguan succeeded this time.

In the midnight of May 8, Shen Zhu took the procurers, incense makers, and bodyguards disguised by Song You and others, accompanied by Wang Xiu, and successfully passed through the Huifeng Ridge with a bronze talisman engraved with the Wushu clan emblem.

Along the way, Song You carefully wrote down the location of the sentinel and the deployment of troops in Huifeng Ridge. The only regret is that because it was late at night and the surroundings were pitch black, he did not find the location of the garrison camp, and it was difficult to judge the response time of the forced outpost.

In order to avoid startling the grass and snakes, Shen Zhu and his entourage also went to Rui Beast Mountain to check the origin of red and blue flowers, and asked the supplier to postpone the picking time of red and blue flowers by five days and the exposure time by three days, and change the wooden frame of transportation and loading to a sealed double-layer clay urn. As a result, the cost of sales of red and blue flowers has increased a lot, but this problem is left to Tianxianglou to solve.

Wang Xiu answered Shen and his entourage when they came back from Huifeng Ridge, and it was still late at night. Shen Zhi carefully found that the people who checked the bronze talisman were actually the same people a few days ago, and this time Wang Xiu also gave some gold and silver to the soldiers guarding the card. The card-guarding soldier who gets the benefit only looks at the bronze charm, not the accompanying goods.

This time, he was lucky to encounter a change of soldiers, and Song You was able to judge the approximate location of the garrison camp by virtue of the light point where the soldiers of the shift were carrying lanterns through the mountains.

Half a month later, Shen Zhu applied to leave the country again on the grounds of checking the quality of the red and blue flowers picked and dried according to the new method.

Before this crossing, the Zhenxi army had made careful preparations. After Shen and his entourage passed through Huifeng Ridge, the vanguard led by Song You broke through the outpost and burned the garrison camp before the Xili garrison could react. Subsequently, Ling Li personally led the large army of the Zhenxi Army to break through the cascading checkpoints and pulled out the sharp teeth of the western plough firmly stuck on the border.

The capture of Huifeng Ridge was the key to the westward expansion. The Zhenxi Army was greatly boosted and imposing for a while, and the officers and soldiers of the generals were all gearing up, and they couldn't wait to smash the Xili Palace.
