Chapter 68: Rouge Gouache
Before the shop owners below could react, they immediately heard Cheng Shuiyao speak again.
"I'm also a beneficiary of this trade, so I naturally want to make the profit higher," Cheng Shuiyao paused deliberately, and then spoke, "You can try to export the spices and rouge gouache from the Central Plains." ”
"Cheng Niangzi is joking," the bosses who were originally listening carefully heard this, and immediately laughed, "Cheng Niangzi still doesn't know, this barbarian tribe is different from our customs in the Central Plains, barbarian women have never used rouge gouache, how can we sell it?" ”
"I know they don't need to," Cheng Shuiyao didn't show any embarrassment at all, but spoke seriously, looking confident, "But we can let them use it." ”
This......
Several bosses involuntarily glanced at each other, full of doubts, and could only look at Cheng Shuiyao curiously.
"I want to hear it in detail," Li Shanhai took the lead in speaking, looking at Cheng Shuiyao's confident look, he was ready to see her make a fool of herself.
It's not that they haven't tried things like rouge gouache before, but every time they fail, and over time, no one sells them anymore, so he doesn't believe that Cheng Shuiyao, a boudoir woman, can come up with a way.
"Actually, it's very simple," Cheng Shuiyao couldn't guess what Li Shanhai was thinking, glanced at him with a little meaning, and then spoke, "If you want to sell rouge gouache in the barbarian clan, you must first let the girls of the barbarian clan realize the benefits of this thing." ”
"Cheng Niangzi wants to ......" Boss He's expression was grim, and he vaguely guessed Cheng Shuiyao's plan.
"That's right," Cheng Shuiyao nodded approvingly, "As long as the barbarian girl knows that these things can make people more beautiful, she will naturally yearn for these things, and the rouge gouache will definitely be sought after at that time." ”
"You're talking lightly," Li Shanhai snorted coldly, "The question is how can we make the barbarian girl realize this. ”
"It's not easy," Cheng Shuiyao casually raised her eyebrows and stretched out her finger to point at herself.
"Cheng Niangzi wants to demonstrate in person?" Boss He instantly guessed what she was thinking, and there was a sudden realization on his face.
"Exactly," Cheng Shuiyao bowed, "but it's not just me, I'll find a few more girls to go to the barbarian tribe to publicize together." ”
"Since Mrs. Cheng is willing to go out in person, this matter will definitely succeed," another boss exclaimed, already able to foresee the grand occasion in the future.
"Without further ado, the bosses can go back and bring some rouge gouache from their own shop first, and we will set off in half an hour," Cheng Shuiyao nodded directly, and casually beckoned the boss to leave, without paying any attention to Li Shanhai on the side.
"Cheng Niangzi, this is a bit too anti-customer-oriented," Li Shanhaipi said with a smile, but he didn't expect that he couldn't design it, but let Cheng Shuiyao win a good reputation.
"Master Li, we are just each other," Cheng Shuiyao turned his head to look at Li Shanhai and spoke slowly, "In the next period of time, Xianggong and I are going to go out for a trip, and I have no time to take care of it here, so I just wanted to come over today to ask one or two, but I didn't expect Master Li to sneak behind my back and call the bosses of the major shops to come over." ”
"You're going out?" Li Shanhai automatically ignored the second half of the words, and grabbed Cheng Shuiyao's previous words.
Cheng Shuiyao knew that he was pretending to be stupid, and he didn't poke him, so he took a sip of tea by himself, and nodded slowly when he saw that he looked anxious.
Isn't that under his control?
Li Shanhai's face was overjoyed, but he felt that his thoughts were too obvious, so he quickly restrained his expression.
"I know what Master Li is thinking now," Cheng Shuiyao was not surprised by his reaction at all, glanced at Li Shanhai with a smile, and then spoke, "So for my benefit, I want to leave someone to watch here." ”
"Mrs. Cheng doesn't trust me like this?" Li Shanhai's expression changed instantly, and he frowned and spoke.
"Master Li is really joking," Cheng Shuiyao laughed directly when he heard this, "Are you worthy of my trust?" ”
Li Shanhai didn't expect Cheng Shuiyao to be so faceless, he couldn't get down from his chest in one breath, and his face turned red.
"Calculate the time, it's time too." Cheng Shuiyao didn't bother to look at him, took his gaze back, and slowly shook the teacup in his hand.
In less than a cup of tea, the housekeeper suddenly walked in with a young man and said respectfully, "Back to the master, this son claimed to be here to find Mrs. Cheng, so I took it upon myself to bring someone in." ”
Li Shanhai looked at the young man with a complicated expression, his face darkened, and he glared at the housekeeper suddenly.
The housekeeper was glared at inexplicably, a little undecided, and turned his gaze to Cheng Shuiyao as if asking for help.
"You go out first," Cheng Shuiyao waved his hand and turned his head to look at the young man, "What's your name?" ”
"Mrs. Hui, my subordinate ink painting," the young man said solemnly, his tone a little stiff.
"Ink painting?" Cheng Shuiyao repeated the name, and the corners of her eyes twitched slightly.
Qinqi, calligraphy and painting are connected together, so if there is an ink book and ink chess, there will naturally be an ink painting, why didn't she think of it earlier?
patted his head a little helplessly, Cheng Shuiyao secretly said that he was not thoughtful, and he was a little embarrassed.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Cheng Shuiyao's reaction was not quite right, Mo Hua hurriedly spoke, for fear that something he said was wrong.
"Ah, it's okay," Cheng Shuiyao hurriedly came back to his senses, put aside his thoughts, and looked at the ink painting intently, "I'm going to go out with your master in a few days, so you have full authority to take over the business here, and you are responsible for helping me keep an eye on the trade between the Central Plains and the barbarians, and make sure that the fifty percent of the benefits I get are a normal amount." ”
When Cheng Shuiyao said this, he didn't shy away from Li Shanhai at all, and almost wrote his distrust of him on his face.
Li Shanhai was angry, rolled his eyes arrogantly, and gritted his teeth secretly.
"Yes," Mo Hua had no objection at all, and directly remembered all the things that Cheng Shuiyao had told him in his mind, and his little face tightened.
Cheng Shuiyao was tired and panicked for him when he saw his expression, and just wanted to let him relax, he saw the bosses who had gone and returned.
"Cheng Niangzi, we are all ready, we can go now." Boss He was the first to speak, looking at the young man in the hall, although he had some doubts in his heart, he didn't ask out loud.
"Since that's the case, then let's go," Cheng Shuiyao didn't delay, stood up directly, and got into the carriage with the ink painting.
Naturally, the other bosses prepared their own carriages, and everyone was on the road quickly.
Cheng Shuiyao sat in the carriage, looking at the rather restrained ink painting sitting opposite, and felt teased in his heart.
