Chapter 716: Bigger and bigger business
Liu Yunxiang placed Tuoba Fei'er first, and when he came back, he saw Xue Changfeng slumped on the chair, and Yan Du poured a cup of tea and personally sent it to him.
"Alright, thank you this time."
"Yo, it's not easy to hear the word 'thanks' from your mouth." Xue Changfeng hurriedly sat up straight, and solemnly drank the cup of tea, "Tsk, the tea poured by His Royal Highness Seven is delicious." ”
Liu Yunxiang smiled, "It should be said that the tea in my Lingyun Tea Store is good." ”
Xue Changfeng nodded, "It's indeed good tea, Da Hong Pao, right?" ”
"Well, Ming'er asked the guy to send you two packs."
Xue Changfeng smiled, "Then I'm welcome." ”
After asking them about the matter in the palace, knowing that the matter of marriage was solved, Liu Yunxiang also fished out an eldest princess, and Xue Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief.
"That'll do, I'll be able to sleep soundly." Saying that, Xue Changfeng yawned, got up and walked out, rubbing his waist as he walked, "Those two in your family can really make trouble, they have to ride horses for a while, and they have to wrestle for a while, and my old bones were almost demolished by them." ”
Liu Yunxiang covered his mouth and smiled, "They are just crazy, and they really like you." ”
"Such a good-looking uncle, of course they like it."
Liu Yunxiang and Yan Duan got up to see Xue Changfeng, and when they walked to the door, Xue Changfeng suddenly remembered something and slapped his head.
"By the way, didn't you ask me to inquire if the mountainous land in Weizhou was given to the northwest, there happened to be a deputy general stationed in Weizhou who returned to Beijing to visit relatives, and we often drank at that time, and he came to my house to find me, and I asked him about the land." Speaking of this, Xue Changfeng's face showed a mysterious look, "Guess what?" ”
Liu Yunxiang and Yan Du glanced at each other, and then she said, "That land has been given to the northwest." ”
Yan Du sighed, "How do you know?" ”
"If you don't agree to give, naturally someone agrees."
"This Yang He doesn't know if his brain was kicked by a donkey or what, although it is a mountainous area, but that place is a fortress with things, how can you say it, you can give it, this has to be reported to the court. It is estimated that he is a big old man, but he didn't expect this, so he did a favor. Xue Changfeng also explained for Yang He.
Yan Du shook his head, "He's a big boss, he didn't think much about it, I think you're stupid." ”
"Hey, what do you mean?" Xue Changfeng was not convinced.
Yan Du was speechless, "Lu Changan asked you for land, you didn't agree, and then you went back to Beijing to visit your relatives, and then you couldn't go back to this visit, and then Yang He took over from you, and then gave this piece of land to Lu Changan, and it hasn't been reported to the imperial court, you use your brain to think about it, how can there be such a coincidence." ”
Xue Changfeng scratched the back of his head, "Why did you make me dizzy." ”
Liu Yunxiang sighed, "It's not that he stunned you, but this matter is really too meticulous, and it is difficult to find suspicious points for a while." Xue Gongzi go back and think about it, I believe you will be able to figure it out soon. ”
Seeing that the two of them refused to explain the words, Xue Cheng snorted and left.
Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "Regarding the case of the murder of Mrs. Marquis of Wuchang, we are guessing at most, it's hard to say, it's better for Xue Changfeng to figure it out himself." And once he understands it, I'm afraid that he will be impulsive, and not only will he not be able to avenge his mother, but he will also put himself in it. ”
"He's definitely capable of that."
Liu Yunxiang hugged Yan Dui's arm, "But I know, you will help him." ”
"Hmph, I don't have the leisure to do that."
After that, Yan Duan pulled Liu Yunxiang to the West House, "We should also rest in peace." ”
"Rest in peace, what are you laughing at?"
"Nope!"
"Don't touch me, I'm tired."
"It's been a long time......"
After taking a bath, Liu Yunxiang said that she wanted to drink water, and Yan Du went to pour it for her, but when she came back, she found that she was already asleep. I had to help her up and pour two mouthfuls into her in a daze.
The next day, three poles above the sun, Liu Yunxiang woke up. Remembering that she and Pei Xuan agreed to go to the jewelry store to have a look, she was busy getting up to freshen up, and hurriedly brought breakfast, she didn't eat because she didn't have much appetite.
"The Seventh Highness has gone to court?" Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin as he walked out.
"He said that he was resting today, and he went to the Marquis of Wuchang's mansion."
Liu Yunxiang nodded, Xue Changfeng was not stupid, he estimated that he had already figured it out last night. Yan Du was afraid that he would be impulsive, so she went over to persuade him.
When Liu Yunxiang came to the jewelry store, Pei Xuan had already arrived.
The shopkeeper told him about the situation in the shop, Pei Xuan nodded while looking through the account books, "The profit is still good, but there has been a downward trend in recent months." ”
"Shengjing was forced to close for half a month due to the influence of the Shannian Camp, which was short-lived, but on the whole, people don't have much money in their hands, and it is difficult to do business."
The jewelry store is particularly affected, such as her grain store.
Liu Yunxiang also told Pei Xuan about the situation of Jiangnan Brocade Workshop, due to the war in Nanzhou, the price of brocade has risen all the way, and it has been compressing their profits, and when the Jiangnan brocade industry recovers little by little, the price will drop some.
Pei Xuan pondered for a long time and said, "Actually, I have always had an idea. ”
"What?"
"I want to do business in the Southern Jin Dynasty."
This idea is very bold, after all, the intention of the Southern Jin Dynasty to annex the three northern countries is already very obvious, and there will definitely be a war, and when the Central Plains mainland is in turmoil, their business across the countries will inevitably be greatly affected, or even ruined.
"Of course, this idea is a bit risky, and I can't make up my mind." Seeing that Liu Yunxiang didn't speak, Pei Xuan sighed.
Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "Actually, I agree." ”
"Huh? Do you agree? ”
Liu Yunxiang lowered his eyes, the previous life also experienced the invasion of the Southern Jin Dynasty and the north, which caused a decade-long war, and the Northern Three Kingdoms Alliance jointly resisted the Southern Jin Dynasty, forcing it to repeatedly suffer setbacks in its northward advance. It's just that the alliance of the three countries is not reliable, suspicious of each other, and finally ceded the thirteen states of Lingnan at the expense of Xiyue, Xiyue cut thousands of miles of grassland and 10,000 horses, and Beijin paid 100,000 taels of gold and 300,000 taels of silver to the Southern Jin Dynasty in exchange for tens of thousands of captured soldiers, so the war ended.
After the four countries recuperated and the border trade flourished, Pei Xuan had the foundation of doing business in the Southern Jin Dynasty before, recovered quickly, and rode this wind to become the richest merchant across the entire continent.
War is a disaster for some, but it is also an opportunity for others. And this life is different from the previous life, she doesn't think that the war will last so long, and the Three Kingdoms will lose so badly.
"Yes, I agree." Liu Yunxiang looked at Pei Xuan, "The Southern Jin Dynasty has a vast land and many people, after the accumulation of three dynasties, now is the time when the people are rich, and their trade with some small countries in the southernmost part of the Southern Jin Dynasty is very smooth, we can exchange spices, medicinal herbs, and jewelry from there." ”
"You're not afraid of war?"
"I'm afraid, so we're taking root over there now and accumulating contacts, but don't spread the business first, wait until the war is over, and then seize the opportunity."
Pei Xuan nodded, "We can't predict when the war will start and when it will end, but there will always be an end day, and I am willing to take this risk." ”
"Then I will bear this risk with you."
After the war, the four countries had a period of peace for nearly 30 years, and the cultures and commerce of the north and the south collided with the east and west, forming a period of rapid development. If they can prepare early, they will be able to seize the opportunity in this period of rapid development.
