Li Qinzai was not surprised at all when Xue Ne started fighting with others.
Many years ago, he often fought with others. Even now, his status is different from what it was back then. When others provoked him, he would still do it.
It's quite normal for the dandies in Chang'an City to fight with others. If one day Xue Ne turns into a good boy, greets everyone all day long and talks nonsense, then it's time to see a doctor.
"Right Minister Xu Jingzong?" Li Qinzai frowned: "This man is not easy to mess with. Why are you going to fight with his grandson?"
Xue Ne snorted angrily and said, "That kid deserves a beating!"
Li Qinzai glanced at him sideways: "Look at the bruises on your face, did you lose the fight?"
Xue Ne snorted in a funny voice: "Am I going to lose? Xu Yanbo is a scholar, a scholar, and he is as weak as a plague chicken. I am the queen of the generals. Will I lose in a fight with him? When I punched him, he cried. ”
"Then the bruises on your face are..."
Xue Ne sighed and said: "Brother Jingchu hasn't been in this business for a long time, so I'm afraid he's unfamiliar. In the past, after we fought outside, no matter we won or lost, we would be beaten up by my father when we got home. The bruises on my face are of course mine. Dad beat me."
Li Qinzai suddenly realized that it was his father's love, no wonder it was so deep.
"Xu Yanbo is a civil servant, why do you have a grudge against him?" Li Qinzai asked.
Xue Ne suddenly looked ashamed, lowered his head and said: "Brother Jingchu, I have done something worthless..."
Li Qinzai sneered: "Don't put gold on your face. It's like you've only done one useless thing in your life. You should say the opposite, how many promising things have you done in your life?"
Xue Ne said with a dark face: "Brother Jingchu, haven't you been teaching in Zhuangzi for the past six months? Why are you becoming more and more venomous? Can your disciples stand you?"
"Can't bear to say a few words? Both princes were severely whipped by me with a whip. Did I show off?" Li Qinzai said: "Don't change the subject. What did you do?"
Xue Na lowered his head and said: "I have done some small business recently, and my family is very tight on monthly finances. Brother Jingchu went to Zhuangzi, and brother Fool has no support, so he has to help himself..."
"Self-reliance, not bad. What kind of business did you do?"
"I... searched for your facial cream in Chang'an City, bought it, raised the price, and sold it to a city outside Guanzhong. I made a profit on the difference..." Xue Na looked away with a guilty conscience.
Li Qinzai was shocked: "It's really a futile thing. What do you think? Poaching my family?"
Xue Ne said hurriedly: "No, I really didn't poach anyone. Brother Jingchu and I are like brothers. How could we do anything that would be disrespectful to our brothers?"
"Although I bought the beauty cream in Chang'an City, I spent the money honestly. I didn't say a penny of the price, and I only sold it to people outside Guanzhong. Your Li family spread it. I haven’t touched the city yet.”
Li Qinzai thought about it and felt relieved.
Strictly speaking, Xue Ne did not touch the interests of the Li family. They spent money to get the goods in a disciplined manner, not even mentioning wholesale discounts, nor did they conflict with the Li family's business scope.
After changing the market behavior of the previous life, the Li family was a direct seller from the manufacturer, while Xue Na was a first-level dealer. The difference was that this unscrupulous person didn't even mention it, and stupidly bought the goods at the market retail price, and lost it in vain. A lot of profit.
"Are you stupid?" Li Qinzai stabbed him in the head with his finger: "Whether you are short of money or want to do business, will you die if you say hello to me? You can get the goods at the retail price, you can't figure it out. "
Xue Na said aggrievedly: "Young brother, aren't you afraid of affecting the interests of the Li family? If I get the goods from the Li family at a low price, the Li family will lose profits in vain. I will not do anything to disgrace my brother."
"For the benefit of the fart, I made the facial cream myself. It's so simple and costs almost nothing. If the Chang'an market is in short supply, I'll let the Li family's workshop expand."
"If you want to do business, just get the goods from the workshop. There are so many cities in the Tang Dynasty. It is impossible for the Li family to swallow them up. Let's discuss it carefully and share some cities with you for direct sales. How will it affect my family's interests?" Li Qinzai cursed fiercely.
Xue Ne bowed to him and said, "In short, I was wrong, stupid brother. I apologize to brother Jingchu."
Li Qinzai sighed: "What happened next? Did you lose money?"
Xue Na smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't lose money at first. After I bought the beauty cream, I asked my caravan to send it to Jiangnan Road. Your beauty cream is indeed a good thing, and it is selling well in Jiangnan. Foolish brother I made a lot of money in those first few months..."
Li Qinzai hummed and said: "There should be a turning point next. That's what a good story should be. A story without a turning point is not a good story..."
Xue Na sighed: "Yes, it's a turning point. The grandson of the Xu family also started the same business as me. He didn't dare to touch the interests of the British government, but he was not polite to me. I gave the goods Wherever he sells, he also sells wherever he goes, playing against me, and maliciously lowering prices and dumping..."
Li Qinzai asked curiously: "Isn't Xu Yanbo a scholar? How dare an official do what a merchant does, without fear of being laughed at?"
Xue Na coughed and said: "Who among the powerful families in Chang'an City doesn't do some business? Can they support a family of hundreds of people with the salary from the court? It's just that the business of the powerful families is relatively obscure, usually It won’t be mentioned on the table.”
"It's a shame that Xu Yanbo is so unruly. There are so many cities in the Tang Dynasty, and he insists on competing with me. I originally made a lot of money, enough to eat and drink in Chang'an City for several years, but Xu Yanbo got involved. They came in and cut prices to fight against me. It seems that my business can no longer be sustained, and the more I do, the more I lose money."
"Yesterday, my foolish brother went to Cuiyuan for a drink. He happened to hear Xu Yanbo in the next room talking nonsense, saying that the boy from the Xue family was a fool, and that he didn't understand the businessman's ways at all. He deserved to lose money because of him."
"Yudi couldn't bear it after hearing this, so he went to seek bad luck on him. Unexpectedly, the boy from the Xu family cried after only one punch without being beaten."
Li Qinzai thought for a moment and said, "The boy from the Xu family is indeed hateful, but I quite agree with him calling you a fool."
Xue Na said aggrievedly: "Brother Jingchu..."
"After all, Xu Yanbo is the prime minister, why do you do such useless things?"
Xue Na sighed: "Brother Jingchu, you don't know how popular your beauty cream is, and the women in Chang'an City are flocking to it. Chang'an is the capital of the Tang Dynasty, and what Chang'an builds will be imitated by all the major cities in the Tang Dynasty. The Zhuyan Cream is even more difficult to find in all parts of the Tang Dynasty."
"Even if I double the price, I don't have to worry about selling it. After all, only the rich and powerful can afford it. People who can afford it don't care about this consistency at all."
"Although Xu Yanbo is the Prime Minister, after all, wealth is very attractive. In order to make money, he doesn't care about face. Like my foolish brother, he secretly bought goods from the market in Chang'an and entrusted caravans to sell them to various cities in the Tang Dynasty. He ran over me. It was at a loss that I beat him up.”
