Zhao Xuanyi pointed to the tea on the table
"The poor people who come to your place don't even dare to set foot in. Those who come are either dignitaries or rich people. You just serve this kind of tea? Not only Yuqian Longjing, but at least Biluochun or Maojian." ! I can’t drink this sip of tea!” After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he stood up and patted Sun Ning on the shoulder.
"Remember what I said, if you don't want to give up your children, you won't be able to trap the wolf! And Brother Sun, I'm surprised, how can your business be so miserable when you occupy such a good location?" Sun Ning hurriedly came to Zhao Xuanyi
"Master Zhao, please make it clear!" Zhao Xuanyi pointed to the silk shop opposite and the teahouse next to it.
"If you have nothing to do, please invite the owner of the silk and satin shop opposite and the owner of the teahouse to have a drink and chat. Don't underestimate these two companies. The silk and satin shop opposite sells clothes, but as long as the boss casually mentions it,...?" Zhao Xuanyi turned around and saw Sun Qian wearing a green dress. He pulled Sun Qian over and pretended to be a clothes shopping boss.
"Hey, girl, you look really good in this green dress, and let me tell you, the Zhenbao Restaurant opposite has recently received a new batch of high-quality jadeite!"
"Every jade pendant is full of green, and the water type is also good. It matches your clothes perfectly! And let me tell you, I heard that this jade pendant is very sharp, and it will be gone if you go late!" Zhao Xuanyi said As soon as they finished speaking, Sun Qian, Sun Ning and others immediately understood, yes!
Girls all like to look beautiful, and who wouldn’t like it if it can be the icing on the cake? And when anyone hears the word gunman, they instinctively have an impulse.
Zhao Xuanyi looked at Sun Ning with a smile
"Remember, hunger marketing is useful at all times! Not to mention the teahouse nearby. Storytellers, singers and opera singers are just for food. As long as you give them a little benefit and let them say a few words casually, you The store’s reputation spread immediately.”
"Find a few more young girls to sell goods here. I guarantee that not only the ladies, but also the gentlemen will come in if they don't want to buy anything just to see the beauties! Will your business here still be so deserted by then?" Sun Ning heard this. It was simply an enlightenment and enlightenment!
He immediately found the problem and immediately bowed to Zhao Xuanyi
"Listening to your words is better than ten years of reading! Sun Ning really learned a lot of knowledge today!" Zhao Xuanyi waved his hand calmly.
"I'm just talking nonsense. Aren't we going to play here for a few days? Let my wife and maids come to your store tomorrow to help. They are very familiar with these things. Then I will lend them some jade articles to wear. What a sign!”
"No, no, no... I don't dare to do that. How dare I trouble the young lady?" Sun Ning refused in every possible way. Li Hanyan doesn't mind
"I'll ask Ziyuan and Qinglian to help me tomorrow. I'm not very familiar with these things, so they should be able to do it!"
"I will also come to help!" Sun Qian said with a smile. Upon hearing this, Sun Ning seemed to have all his worries solved.
"Thank you, Miss!" After Sun Qian heard Zhao Xuanyi's words, she knew that she had found the right person. It seemed that her brother's store management problem had been solved, so why not strike while the iron is hot?
"Brother, don't you still have a batch of jade for Mr. Zhao to take a look at?" Sun Ning reacted immediately after hearing this.
"Yes, Mr. Zhao, I want you to take a look at this batch of materials. Could you please come to the backyard?"
"Jade? I don't understand!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
"It's okay, I just want to hear what you have to say, please!" Sun Ning said politely. Unable to refuse the hospitality, Zhao Xuanyi nodded, took Li Hanyan and Sun Qian, and followed Sun Ning to the backyard. When they arrived at the backyard, he saw two muscular men standing at the door of a room, seemingly protecting this person. The room, there must be something terrible in it!
Sun Ning came over, drove the two away, then took out the key and opened the door.
"Mr. Zhao, Miss, please!" Zhao Xuanyi and Li Hanyan did not hesitate and walked in. After entering the room, Zhao Xuanyi looked inside the room. This was a warehouse with various boxes of large and small sizes. Zhao Xuanyi did not understand the inside of these. What are you pretending to be?
Sun Ning walked up to a square box one meter long and wide with a troubled face, opened the lock on it, and opened the lid of the box.
"Mr. Zhao, could you please take a look at it!" Zhao Xuanyi came over and looked inside. He was dumbfounded for a moment. Li Hanyan on the side also frowned when he saw it. Inside the box were various jadeite stones, green, red, etc. There are a lot of yellow ambers and so on, but what is surprising is that all these jade stones are broken!
The pieces were as big as half a fist and as small as a fingernail, and they were so mixed that it was impossible to tell them apart. It was like putting several different colors of glass in a box and then smashing them with a sledgehammer until they were all mixed together. Same!
"Master Sun, what are you...?" Zhao Xuanyi asked, pointing to the box. Sun Ning looked sad
"This time I went out to purchase goods. I originally bought two boxes of high-quality jade, including jade, lake, cat's eye, etc., but I don't know who sabotaged it, destroying every box containing jade!"
"Later, during the transportation process, the boxes in which the jade was stored were scattered after being hit. When I opened it at home, I found that all the precious jade had become like this. Now I can't sell it for the price, and I can't bear to throw it away. There is really no other way!" After Sun Ning finished speaking, he lowered his head and said nothing. From the looks of it, he knew that he must have suffered a lot this time, but Sun Ning could only be mute and eat coptis, unable to tell the story of his suffering!
Although these gems had been smashed into scraps, Zhao Xuanyi once again discovered business opportunities and raised his head to look at Sun Ning.
"Brother Sun, I wonder how much you spent on buying these jade stones this time?" Sun Ning looked as if he was beyond love when he heard the price of these jade stones.
"Although I dare not say that these jade stones are of the highest quality, they are still of the highest quality. The two boxes cost nine yuan in total and cost me nearly three hundred taels of silver!" Zhao Xuanyi couldn't help but nod when he heard this.
"If you sell these broken and damaged rubble, what price can you get for it?"
"Sell? Haha! If it's some top-quality jade, you might be able to get some money, but for my rubble, no one wants thirty taels of it. I've also thought about wrapping jade in gold or wrapping it in silver. , but these pieces are too small to make even a jade pendant!" Zhao Xuanyi listened to Sun Ning's words and nodded gently. Everyone can understand this situation, but... this is a gift from God. Money, don’t face retribution
"Um...Brother Sun, how about we discuss a business deal?"
"Are we talking about business? What business?" Sun Ning asked.
"I want both of your two boxes of jade, but I can't give you a high price. After all, these things of yours are not valuable, but I can't give you too little. So, let's compromise and you spent three hundred taels. , I will give you one hundred and fifty taels, I want all these jade stones, do you think so?" After Sun Ning heard this, the man was dumbfounded
"No, no, no... Mr. Zhao, what are you talking about? These jade stones are worthless. Just now you paid so much attention to me. Even if they were given to you for free, I wouldn't say anything. How could you? Where to collect money?”
"No, I want these jade stones. Of course they have my use, so don't worry about it. But let's make an agreement that no matter what I do with it, I will accept the loss. Don't be jealous of the gain!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile! .
"How can that be possible? How can a human being be like this? Mr. Zhao, let's not talk about this. Just give me a hundred taels. Even if I take advantage of you, I will lose less! You have also helped me. Very busy!" Sun Ning said very sincerely.
"Deal!" Zhao Xuanyi said very cheerfully, even if the business was concluded in this way,
"But Brother Sun, I have one more thing to say. I didn't bring any money with me when I came out this time. I'll take these back first, and then I'll have someone bring the money back to you. Can you trust me?" Sun Ning smiled.
"Mr. Zhao is not a heretic. Even if he doesn't give me any money and prevents me from seeing these jade stones, it can be considered as a solution to my worries! This is nothing!" Li Hanyan listened from the side and hurriedly grabbed Zhao Xuanyi's arm.
"Everyone, let's say a few words!" After speaking, Li Hanyan pulled Zhao Xuanyi aside with a very serious expression.
"I said you were crazy? Why did you spend a hundred taels on these crappy things? The bracelets can't be made, and the rings don't have enough material. What do you think?"
"Didn't you ask me to help him?"
"I asked you to help him, but I didn't ask you to buy a bunch of stuff that can't be used for anything, right?"
"Nothing can be done. That's your opinion. In my eyes, these are all good things! Don't worry, you won't lose money!" Zhao Xuanyi gave Li Hanyan a reassuring look.
"Brother Sun, please do me a favor and ask your people to separate all these broken jade stones for me. Just put the jade fragments of the same kind together in a bag!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"No problem, I'll order someone to handle it in a minute. Come on, let's go to the hotel. I'm treating you today. Mr. Zhao, let's go together! Huh? Where is the second young master?" Sun Ning asked strangely.
Zhao Xuanyi clapped his hands
"Oh, I threw the second brother to the market! Qinglian, go and invite the second brother and the others. It's already noon. Let's go to the restaurant!"
"Yes!" Qinglian turned and left. In the capital, Li Yukun was watching carefully with a small piece of paper in his hand. The expression on his face was uncertain and constantly changing.
"Xuanyi really has a way to preserve vegetables through the cold winter? If this is really the case, I can buy more vegetables now and send them to the border areas in winter. I can also save a lot of military pay. Once the military pay is approved by the court, I can make a steady profit, and the most important thing is that it is legal!" Li Yukun couldn't help cheering when he thought of this, this son-in-law is so beautiful and well-educated!
If I had known that he would find such business opportunities when he went to one place, I would have asked him to go to Shandong! If this is true, then I can save thousands or even tens of thousands of taels of silver this year!
Li Yukun was very happy thinking about this
"Come here, prepare some food and wine for me, and invite your relatives over. I want to treat you!" In Zuichun Building, Tang Rou was sitting alone on the edge of the window sill, looking at the bustling life downstairs, but her face There was a trace of loneliness on the face. Sequoia stood aside, seeming to understand Tang Rou's thoughts.
"Girl, could it be that you miss Mr. Zhao?"
"No!" Tang Rou immediately replied
"This heartless guy doesn't know whether he's alive or dead? He won't even give me a letter! Who will miss him?" Sequoia smiled, but he is a stubborn duck with a tough mouth.
"I heard that Mr. Zhao and Miss Sun of the General's Mansion left the capital together a few days ago!"
"What?" Tang Rou turned to look at Sequoia
"What do you mean? How did they leave the capital? Why?" Sequoia looked helpless.
"Girl, how do I know the reason? I went to the market a few days ago and heard someone from the general's palace say it. I don't know the details!"
