Chapter 195: Catch the ducks on the shelves
At this time. The housekeeper suddenly thought of the little young master, who had been learning how to manage the Lu Mansion's property for the past few days, and let him go through the experience, and everyone happened to be happy, if he messed up, with the little young master's current status in the master's mind, he would definitely not punish him much.
Thinking so, the housekeeper immediately solved the big problem now, ran to the young master's yard, and did not forget to tell his subordinates to take good care of the master.
The housekeeper hummed a song and came to Lu Zhenyan's courtyard, came to Lu Zhenyan's room, knocked on the door, and Lu Zhenyan was still applying a hot towel to his face and eyes at this time, after all, his face was swollen and he couldn't see anyone.
Hearing someone knocking on the door, Lu Zhenyan made a gesture to ask Xiao Li to open the door, Xiao Li hurriedly stepped forward to open the door, looking at the housekeeper standing at the door, Xiao Li was a little surprised, he asked, "Housekeeper, why did you come here suddenly?" But the master has something to find the young master? ”
The housekeeper said expressionlessly: "The master is still drunk and unconscious, I have something to ask the young master for help." ”
Xiao Li just wanted to say that his young master was also drunk, and now he was still uncomfortable, but before he could say it, Lu Zhenyan said, "Xiao Li, let the housekeeper come in." ”
As soon as Xiao Li heard the young master say this, he hurriedly got out of the way, and the housekeeper went in, and when he got inside, he immediately changed his appearance, and looked at Lu Zhenyan with a flattering face, Lu Zhenyan had already removed the hot towel at this time, looking at the housekeeper's expression, Lu Zhenyan was displeased, but he didn't show it on his face,
Lu Zhenyan said: "The housekeeper came here early in the morning, why should he be? ”
The butler suddenly had a sad look on his face, and said: "Yesterday, the master and the young master drank and enjoyed themselves, my lord, unlike the young master, you are young and strong, and you recover quickly, but you drank too much yesterday, and now you can't get out of bed." ”
Lu Zhenyan heard him say this, there was no expression on his face, the housekeeper saw that Lu Zhenyan didn't say anything, felt that what he said was not clear enough, and continued: "Today, the master still has a lot of business to discuss, but now the master is drunk and unconscious, even if he wakes him up, in such a state, it is not good to talk about business, the young master is the future master of this Lu Mansion, or will he talk about that business for the master today?" ”
Lu Zhenyan looked at the sinister and cunning appearance of the housekeeper, and knew that it seemed that this business must be difficult to handle, otherwise how could he come to him, this housekeeper of the Lu Mansion has followed Master Lu since he started his business, and he must know a lot about business principles.
Lu Zhenyan pretended to be flattered and said, "This... Can I also talk about this business? , I haven't learned much about how to run a business, if I mess up, or forget it, butler, you and Dad have been good brothers for many years, or you should go as a housekeeper. ”
The housekeeper looked at her cautious appearance, and couldn't understand what the master admired her, so he cowered, and at first glance he was a person who couldn't make a big deal, but even the master himself was not sure of this business, let alone himself, if he went to talk about it himself, and finally failed, it would definitely make the master feel disappointed in his own ability to do business today, no, he couldn't go.
Thinking like this, the housekeeper said with an embarrassed face: "Young master, it's not that I don't want to talk about this business, it's just that young master, the master has more than one business to talk about today, I'm really too busy, so I came to ask the young master for help, I don't know if the young master can ......."
Lu Zhenyan looked at the housekeeper and said, "Since the housekeeper is really too busy, I should do my part for the Lu Mansion." ”
The housekeeper looked at Lu Zhenyan and agreed, and the joy in his heart was not obvious, and said: "Then young master, I will ask my subordinates to sort out the specific matters of the business to be discussed today, and send them to you, probably after lunch, the young master can go to the private room of Lu's restaurant to talk about business, and I will retire first." ”
Lu Zhenyan nodded, Xiao Li looked at the young master's unhappy appearance, and asked strangely, "Young master, why are you unhappy?" This steward gives you business to discuss, which is a recognition of your ability. ”
Lu Zhenyan had no expression on his face, and said: "Whether you recognize my ability or not, I always feel that this business is not so simple." ”
Xiao Li didn't understand, and looked at Lu Zhenyan stupidly.
After a while, the housekeeper sent someone to hand over the information of the business to be discussed to Lu Zhenyan Lu Zhenyan looked at the content of the paper and finally understood why the housekeeper felt tricky.
This is not Xicheng's business, but trade with other countries, the merchants of the feudal country value the silk of our country, and the first object he is looking for is Lu Zhanyuan, the richest man in Xicheng, why him? Lu Zhenyan had seen the territory before, and guessed that the approximate reason was that Xicheng was the closest to their country.
The most important reason is that Xicheng has a part of the sea, which is the most suitable for maritime trade, and if you are looking for a partner, it is natural to find the most suitable one in Xicheng.
And Lu Zhanyuan is the richest man in this Xicheng, so he naturally has more credibility than those businessmen who are not famous.
Lu Zhanyuan agreed to cooperate with him not only because he wanted to earn that little difference, but also because he also took a fancy to the porcelain of their country, the porcelain of the vassal country is very famous, and there are some good porcelain in our country, and it can even be fried at a sky-high price.
Seeing this, even Lu Zhenyan had to admire this Master Lu's business acumen.
And the reason why the housekeeper refused to talk about it is probably because the merchants of this vassal country have never been in contact with it, and I don't know what the temperament is, plus most of our understanding of the vassal country here is also a tiger's back, a very fierce kind, probably because he is afraid that he will accidentally annoy the merchants of the vassal country and die without a place to be buried.
Lu Zhenyan couldn't help but shake his head, this housekeeper really had a good wishful thinking, if she finally talked about it, her father would praise the housekeeper, saying that even if he made the right decision, if he didn't do it well, wouldn't it be all her fault.
Although I don't like the housekeeper's behavior of chasing ducks on the shelves. But it also hit her heart by mistake, if there is a direct supply of spices from the merchants of the feudal country, the cost of the rouge shop can drop a lot, God really helps me.
Lu Zhenyan thought about the general countermeasures, thought about it, and suddenly became hungry.
Lu Zhenyan asked Xiao Li to prepare some food, and he had just listened to Xiao Li's persuasion and tried to eat as much as possible, but now he is really hungry, and his brain can't move.
As soon as Xiao Li heard that Lu Zhenyan wanted to eat, he hurriedly went to the small kitchen and instructed the cook to cook some dishes that Lu Zhenyan usually likes to eat, thinking in his heart that the young master would go to talk about business later, but he must not go hungry.
Lu Zhenyan looked at the information sent by the housekeeper, her brows tightened, her father actually wanted to use some silk that was not good to exchange for porcelain, which was indeed able to make more money, but once it was discovered, this partner was afraid that he would not look for the Lu family in the future.
