"Zi Yi, we are businessmen. Actually... you don't have to mind that much just now."
Seeing the shopkeeper of the cloth shop enter the painting boat and disappear, Manager Xue smiled bitterly, turned around and said to Ziyi carefully considering his words.
Hearing this, Ziyi sighed softly and whispered: "I know, but I just saw him being rude to you, Manager Xue, and I couldn't hold it back."
"This, hey..."
Manager Xue glanced at Zi Yi and shook his head helplessly.
The Xiao family may be like this. It doesn't matter if they suffer a little injustice, but they are determined not to see the rest of their family being wronged.
This point is clearly reflected from the Marquis to the servant craftsmen at the bottom.
No matter how you scold or beat your own people, that is all your own business! But outsiders want to bully and show some humility? no!
"Well, if you want to be respected by others, you must respect them first. Although we are businessmen, we don't have to be groveling to others."
I know that this "problem" cannot be changed, and there is no way to change it! Manager Xue took a deep breath, rearranged his clothes, glanced at the peaceful scene outside, and walked steadily into the boat.
The first floor of Huafang was already buzzing with people.
As a rule, those who come last are often the ones with the most important status.
When Boss Zhang, Manager Hu, and the shopkeeper of Buhang showed up.
The others finally stopped watching even the singing and dancing, got up from their seats and greeted them from a distance.
There were a lot of people and it was a bit chaotic.
Mr. Yin, who followed the shopkeeper of the cloth shop in, seemed a little uncomfortable with this atmosphere. Upon seeing this, he quietly pulled the masked woman back to a corner and sat down.
After the shopkeeper of Buhang caught a glimpse of this, he didn't show any strange expression, nor did he introduce them to anyone else. He just kept paying tribute to those around him.
"That person is the shopkeeper of Yangzhou Buhang? He was also the first to issue such things as banknotes?"
On the second floor of Huafang, Xiao Han was attracted by the noisy people. He lay down behind the curtain and eavesdropped for a while. Through the greetings of those people, he learned that this unattractive old man was the largest cloth shop owner in Yangzhou City.
No wonder those beasts didn't even look at the sweaty beauties. It turned out that industry leaders from the business world had arrived! If they could get a little benefit from this person, I'm afraid they wouldn't have to drool over the dancers here. Wouldn't it be great to just buy a team and go home to "appreciate" it themselves?
"Ding……"
After saying hello for a long time, just as the noise faded away, a clear bell rang on the first floor.
The ringtone was very clear, and it spread throughout the entire boat in an instant.
The musicians and dancers all breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the bell. They didn't bother to wipe the sweat from their heads, and hurriedly left the small platform in the center with their things in their hands.
As for the merchants, they all knew that the ringtone must have a profound meaning, so they stopped talking and looked at Manager Xue, who was walking up to the stage step by step.
Manager Xue came on stage with a cheerful face and stood firm!
Then he raised his hands and bowed in circles, and then he laughed loudly and said: "Dear shopkeepers! Bosses! Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend this new product launch conference held by our Xiao family. Xue is deeply honored, thank you, thank you!"
"..."
Silence, deathly silence.
According to Xiao Han's experience in his previous life, it was time to clap and applaud at this time, but why were all the shopkeepers mute? Broken hand? Why are you so rude?
"What kind of weird words did Mr. Hou write?!"
Manager Xue was also a little confused by the reactions of everyone in front of him. Sweat was pouring from his forehead, and he regretted listening to Xiao Han's suggestion!
"Hey, if I had known earlier, I should have hired a few sailors! Why did you make such a low-level mistake?" Xiao Han on the second floor also saw this situation at this time, and couldn't help but slap himself on the forehead and said to himself in annoyance.
"Ahem, that shopkeeper Xue, what does your new product launch conference mean?"
I don’t know if it was a moment or half an hour later, but finally, someone in the crowd broke the silence! Manager Xue was so moved that he almost jumped down and hugged the person who made the noise!
"Oh, blame me, blame me! I didn't explain it clearly to everyone. This so-called new product launch conference means that our Xiao family has recently done some new business, and we will show it to everyone for appreciation! Of course, if there is anything you like, we can also discuss it. , let’s make money together if we have money!”
Apologizing and cupping his hands in all directions, Manager Xue tried his best to use the most understandable words to explain his newly invented words.
"New thing?"
Sure enough, after Manager Xue explained this, there was a commotion around him.
But it was a little different from what Xiao Han and Manager Xue had imagined at the beginning. Although the eyes of those merchants clearly showed their desire to make money, they always felt as if there was still a deep concern hidden in them.
"Haha, yes, it's a new thing. Next, let our Xiao family's purple-clothed shopkeeper explain it to you in detail!"
Frowning slightly and feeling something was wrong, Manager Xue tried his best to suppress the uneasiness in his heart and invited Ziyi to the stage according to the pre-prepared order.
And he took the opportunity to go to the dark place under the stage to carefully observe everyone's expressions.
"Little girl, Ziyi, I have met all the seniors..."
After the introduction by Manager Xue, the purple-clad lady took the stage, facing the attention of the audience, but her young and handsome face did not show any panic at all, and she bowed softly to everyone around her.
"Huh? Why is it a girl?"
"Still so young and handsome..."
Most of the merchants in the audience did not recognize Ziyi. Seeing a young and beautiful woman on stage at this moment, they couldn't help but look strange and started whispering to each other.
The shopkeeper of the cloth shop, a young man named Yin, did not speak. Several people looked at Ziyi on the stage quietly, with complicated eyes, not knowing what they were thinking.
There was a buzzing sound in the audience, and Ziyi felt as if she was in a pile of ducks. However, she did not look impatient at all. She just smiled and looked at the people whispering in the audience, until they noticed something was wrong and closed their eyes. The mouth is silent.
The surroundings became quiet again, and Zi Yi kept smiling on his face as he continued: "Everyone here is Zi Yi's senior! Logically speaking, Zi Yi shouldn't be arrogant in front of seniors. However, Zi Yi has some good things here. I want to I want to share it with you, so seniors, please allow me to talk about it here."
"hehe……"
There was a sporadic laughter all around, and there were also questions about "what good thing is it?" mixed in with it.
Zi Yi looked elegant and like a natural speaker and said with a smile: "I want you all to know that under the instructions of my Marquis, I have established a new workshop in Yangzhou in the past few days and made several good things. I specially took advantage of today's Take this opportunity and show it to everyone. If you think you can make money, you can definitely start this business together."
