"I asked them to follow you secretly and not disturb Miss Su. It's not very peaceful over there in Qingyuan, so it's better to be safe."
Feng Ying knew that the parents and officials in Qingyuan were in a state of chaos, and he was worried about it.
If something happens to Miss Su, it would be strange if the young master doesn't peel off his skin.
"But this is too much trouble for you."
Su Chen was sorry, it was not good for them to order others around like this.
"Your family has life-saving grace for the young master, and the young master is kind to us. His kindness is our kindness, so your family's affairs are my business, and we have a duty to do so. Moreover, our young master still misses your daughter. Woolen cloth……"
The first few sentences that Feng Ying said were righteous, but the last sentence, his voice suddenly became softer and unclear...
"What did you say?" Su Chen didn't understand.
"nothing much?"
"I said the last sentence!" Su Chen really didn't hear it clearly.
"Brother Su, you heard wrong. I didn't say anything. It's getting late. You should go back and rest early. Don't you have something else to do tomorrow?
I'll leave Miss Mimi's affairs to us, and I'll take care of it for you. When you come back, I'll come and have a drink with you. "
Feng Ying pushed Su Chen back and stopped continuing this topic.
I almost made a mistake. If they knew the young master's little thoughts, the elder brother would not eat him.
Although the young master has never expressed his interest in Miss Su, his actions are too abnormal. He said nothing and said everything.
Su Chen couldn't figure it out, always feeling that Feng Ying was weird.
He had just taken a few steps when the boy caught up with him again.
"Brother Su, wait, I have something else to ask you." Feng Ying almost forgot about the important matter.
"What's the matter?" Su Chen asked confused.
"Miss Su, is there anything you particularly want in the near future?" Feng Ying asked directly.
"Why are you asking about this?" Su Chen couldn't understand what was there to ask about.
"Nothing, just asking around." Feng Ying was entrusted by the young master.
But after thinking about it, Su Chenban suddenly realized:
"You...could you have fallen in love with my sister?" Su Chen pointed at him in disbelief.
As if being struck by lightning, Feng Ying quickly covered Su Chen's mouth and said that he fell in love with Miss Su, did he want to die?
"No, how is that possible? Don't talk nonsense."
"Then why are you asking these things? Do you want to give her something?" Su Chen slapped his hand away and said reluctantly.
"It's not me, it's really not me, just tell me." Feng Ying was anxious to death. How could he dare to compete with the young master? He was looking for death.
Su Chen crossed his arms and looked him up and down to make sure he wasn't telling lies.
"Let me tell you, my sister is still young. Don't make blind decisions. She only likes money."
Su Wan is only interested in making money. What else is he interested in if he doesn't like money?
Feng Ying realized that Miss Su liked money and could do business.
"You like silver, right? I know, I'm leaving."
After Feng Ying got the answer, he stopped pestering Su Chen and left quickly.
…
The next day, Su Chen hitched up the carriage and took Dashu with him. He rode the carriage in front of him and Dashu rode the carriage behind him.
He had been specially trained to drive, and as an older brother, he was relatively stable, so Su Chen asked him to drive with them to Qingyuan County and Qingquan County in a carriage carrying goods.
The uncle drove a carriage to Qinghe to deliver goods.
The soldiers were divided into two groups, and Su Mu and Su Yi were in charge of the workshop. She was relieved that soap was still being made and flowers were being delivered one after another.
In terms of distance, Qingquan is closer, so go to Qingquan County first, and then go to Qingyuan County.
Their uncle gave them the keys to their home. After the work was done, they had to go to his uncle's house to help them pack their things and bring them to Xiangzhou.
It was not convenient for their family to go back, as they were afraid of meeting the county magistrate's son, and they would not be able to tell clearly when the time came.
The loading carriage was covered with oilcloth, and his uncle was not alone, but Xiaoshu was accompanying him.
Therefore, it was really a wise choice for Su Wan to buy two men.
…
From Xiangzhou to Qingquan, it took a carriage most of the day to get there. By the time they arrived at the county, it was already afternoon, so the few of them found a place to stay first.
This time I brought more than a thousand bars of soap, and I had to empty them all out. I first checked the market. The county was no different than Xiangzhou. There were fewer people visiting the powder shops. There were more ordinary people nearby who paid more attention to cost-effectiveness.
Therefore, the most popular stores are grain and oil stores and grocery stores.
Su Wan first set his sights on the grocery store, looking for the largest one with the best business.
She didn't know if goat milk soap was easy to use in Xiangzhou, but she definitely couldn't sell it too expensively at first. In order to open up the market, she would sell it at the original price, and then increase it back to the original price the second time.
After staying here for one night, Su Wan asked the innkeeper which grocery store was the largest and had the best business in the county.
The next day, she took the goods to the grocery store. This time, the grocery store was run by a couple.
They had never heard of goat milk soap, so they didn't agree with Su Wan's statement that he would only charge half the money and pay the balance after the goods were sold out.
Because Su Wan left six hundred pieces of soap at one time, totaling more than two hundred taels of silver, which was not a small amount for them, they did not dare to take the risk.
However, they are receiving dividends, so they do not suffer any loss in calculation, but they are unwilling to pay first and want to wait until all the soaps are sold before paying.
Su Wan could understand that it was understandable for them to think so. After all, it was not a small amount of money.
Su Wan believes in integrity when doing business, so she agreed to the couple's proposal and waited until all the goat milk soap was sold before settling the payment.
A month later, she will send someone to check again.
But Su Chen was also uneasy. He pulled Su Wan over and whispered:
"You don't want a penny now. What if they don't accept the account after selling all the things and run away with the money? This is more than two hundred taels of silver."
This batch of soap is worth a lot of money, enough to provide enough food and clothing for a long time.
"Third brother, you must be short-sighted. I've asked around. This grocery store has been open for ten years, and its profit is more than two hundred taels. So, you are not afraid of them running away. Another thing, they know about goat milk. The value of soap is that you can earn more than thirty taels in one order, and you can get two hundred taels with a few more orders. In a long-term transaction, why should you take risks? Is it worth it to give up your current stability for two hundred taels?
The money will eventually be spent, but as long as the shop is there, the business will not be interrupted. It is a kind of guarantee. If it were you, would you choose to take advantage of this small advantage? "
Su Wan patiently explained to him that two hundred taels may sound like a lot at first glance, but in fact it is not much and cannot make a fortune.
The third brother is not in the business world, and he doesn't think much. He is easily blinded by the little benefits in front of him, so that he cannot see the essence.
But he is not wrong, after all, people's hearts are separated from each other, and it is necessary to be on guard against others.
