Zhu Chongba stood in front of the shop without saying a word. The other people were also waiting, and suddenly they became quiet.
The old housekeeper asked the troublemaker, "How much do we normally sell these goods?"
The clerk hurriedly said, "Go back to the steward. The normal price of the goods he selected is one thousand taels of silver. It's my fault, steward. I shouldn't be vindictive and joking with this young master."
When the housekeeper heard the guy talking like this, he was really angry, "How dare you! You still think you are joking now! It really pissed me off."
When the boy saw that the housekeeper was so angry, he quickly shut his mouth.
The housekeeper really wanted to settle this matter, but if he sold it to Zhu Chongba at the price the guy said, his boss would really suffer a heavy loss. If he didn't do this, he would be deceiving the customers. After all, what can we do about it?
The housekeeper didn't know what to do for a while. Normally, he could make decisions on these matters, but it was different now.
His old boss just died some time ago, and now he is the head of the Shaodong family. He still doesn't know what the temper of the Shaodong family is, so he doesn't dare to jump to conclusions.
Finally, the old housekeeper said to Zhu Chongba, "Young Master, please come with me to the inner hall to have a rest. I will send someone to invite our boss here."
Zhu Chongba respected the old man very much. He followed the old man into the shop. Originally, his two brothers wanted to go in with him, but Zhu Chongba waved his hand and they had to wait outside.
There is a large space at the back of this store. This design is actually very reasonable. The back can be used to store goods and entertain distinguished guests.
The old butler entered the living room at the back. He asked Zhu Chongba to sit down, and then asked someone to serve tea. "Young Master, I am very angry about what happened. How to deal with it depends on our young master."
Zhu Chongba nodded, it was not easy for old housekeepers. He unconsciously thought of the housekeeper of landlord Liu Fu, but in his opinion, this old housekeeper and that housekeeper were not the same person at all.
Zhu Chongba suddenly became interested in this overseas trade. He was thinking, how great it would be if he did this overseas trade!
His heart was really getting swollen. If Shen Wansan knew about Zhu Chongba's plan, he didn't know how his young master's family would deal with it. Zhu Chongba said, "Old man, do you know much about these overseas trades?"
The old housekeeper was very happy when he heard Zhu Chongba ask this, "When I was young, I often went overseas with my old boss. Now that I am old, I can no longer do it."
Zhu Chongba was very interested when he heard this, "Old man, can you tell me some stories about this road?"
The old butler began to meditate. It could be said that he was recalling the glorious past. He was also very powerful at that time.
Time passed, and it had been so many years before he knew it. The old butler was immersed in memories. He had experienced so many things in his life that few people had asked him before. Zhu Chongba asked suddenly, which made him have mixed feelings.
Maybe Zhu Chongba also knew that he asked too suddenly, so he didn't rush him, he just sat aside and waited.
After a long time, the old housekeeper said, "I have experienced too many things in my life, and I don't know how many times I have been overseas."
When the old housekeeper and Zhu Chongba were chatting here, he didn't know that among the crowd just now, his young boss had actually arrived, but he just didn't show up.
The Shaodong family is among the crowd. The Shaodong family has great respect for this old housekeeper. The old housekeeper can be said to be very loyal to their family over the years. He has been working hard and making great achievements for so many years.
Regarding today's incident, he heard clearly from the side. The young master secretly carefully looked at Zhu Chongba's dress. If he were a clerk, of course he would not talk like this clerk, but he also He doesn't pay much attention to Zhu Chongba.
Originally, the young master came up with it, but then he thought again, he had just taken over, so let the old housekeeper handle this matter!
Unexpectedly, after asking for a long time, the old housekeeper did not make the final decision. Instead, he invited Zhu Chongba inside.
When the young master finally heard that the old housekeeper was going to invite him, he decided to go out soon.
Shaodong's family has never been overseas. Now he is looking for an opportunity to go overseas. However, his old mother at home won't let him go, and his wife has the same attitude.
After waiting for a while, the Shaodong family came out of the crowd. Although a few people outside left, most of them still stayed. They wanted to see the final result.
"The boss is here!" The boy said with sharp eyes and quick words.
The old housekeeper heard the call of the waiter inside, and hurriedly ended the conversation with Zhu Chongba, and hurriedly came out. Of course, Zhu Chongba also came out.
Zhu Chongba was not satisfied with this! He thought to himself, why did the young master show up at this time? When the butler was talking about something exciting, he suddenly stopped. It was really unbearable.
Everyone was waiting there, and the young master spoke, "Our store is based on honesty and integrity. We will do what we say, and we will sell it to this young man at the price mentioned by the clerk."
Zhu Chongba was thinking about overseas trade now, and he no longer cared about the trivial matter of buying things.
The housekeeper looked back at Zhu Chongba and said, "Young Master, are you satisfied this time? Our boss has already told us that we should handle the matter quickly and let everyone see the sincerity of our store."
Zhu Chongba was deep in thought, of course not thinking about what happened just now. He was thinking about overseas trade. According to the old housekeeper, although overseas trade is very risky, the benefits are also great.
There is no doubt that most of the origin of Shen Wansan's huge wealth is due to overseas trade. But Zhu Chongba thought he couldn't do that yet because he really couldn't afford the compensation.
For Shen Wansan, even if there were storms on the sea and one or two ships were lost, it would not hurt his muscles and bones, but for Zhu Chongba, such a loss would never be tolerated.
"Chongba, what are you thinking about? Hurry up and say it!" His second brother finally couldn't help it anymore and asked.
Zhu Chongba waited for a long time before saying, "Let's handle it then!"
The clerk gave Zhu Chong eighty-thirty taels of silver and wrapped the goods he selected. The clerk was wondering what his boss would do with him.
Just when everyone thought this matter was over, Zhu Chongba said again, "Wait a minute, I still have something to say."
