The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 231

As soon as Mrs. Xu went out, she heard someone following behind her. She turned her head, looked at Ding Yi vigilantly, and said in a low voice, "There is no need for shopkeeper Ding to give it away, but you can take care of yourself. This place is still very special."

"I don't have this hobby." Ding Yi said with a smile: "I want to talk to Madam again."

Mrs. Xu felt Ding Yi's aggressive gaze, and her heart became more vigilant. She took two steps back without any trace, opened the distance between them, looked at Ding Yi quietly, and said softly: "The Xu family has been in business for decades. So, General Ding, don't make this concubine difficult, okay?"

She will be called General Ding, probably to tell Ding Yi that you are a court general, it is not good to go out without authorization, so just keep a low profile and don't cause trouble.

"80 taels, I want fifty thousand." Ding Yi said in a deep voice.

Mrs. Xu and the maid's expressions changed slightly at the same time. There has never been a merchant in Songjiang who bought so much raw silk at one time.

She shook her head resolutely: "Excuse me, I can't do anything, the output of our Xu family is only like this, why don't you ask the other bosses in Songjiang?"

"85, I want forty thousand." Ding Yi said.

Mrs. Xu's complexion changed again, she seemed a little angry, her chest began to heave and fluctuate, her eyes stared at Ding Yi, her beautiful eyes turned red.

Sudden.

"Ah, sorry." A gust of cold wind came from somewhere, and Madam Xu stood in the corridor, trembling all over, and sneezed.

This was quite embarrassing, she hurriedly covered her sexy mouth, her face turned even redder.

But Ding Yi turned around, snatched the cloak from the maid, and put it on her back.

"Ah" the little maid opened her mouth in surprise.

"It's windy outside, madam be careful of catching cold." Ding Yi said softly.

Mrs. Xu was not angry, she reached out her hand and grabbed the two collars of the cloak calmly, took two steps back again, looked up at Ding Yi, after thinking for a while, she said slowly: "Master Ding, you don't need to waste your time. "

"In business, there are no rules, and there is no circle."

"No one and nothing can change my original intention and decision."

"Treasurer Ding, please respect yourself."

After that, she turned around and walked away resolutely.

The little maid stuck out her tongue at Ding Yi, smiled mischievously, and followed quickly.

Damn it, Ding Yirao has a thick skin, and his face is flushed right now.

Missed?
Didn't move?
For the people of Ming Dynasty, for the motherland and the country, I wanted to sacrifice a little bit, but it was useless?

He couldn't believe it, he followed Mrs. Xu downstairs, and when he was walking towards the door, Ding Yi kept counting in his heart.

"1, 2, 3, look back at me--"

But Mrs. Xu didn't look back at all, and went all the way, leaving Yuxiangyuan very quickly.

"I will." Ding Yi shook his head helplessly.

But soon, he adjusted his mood.

Only when there are challenges and difficulties will there be fun.

Then Ding Yi returned to the room, sat down with all the bosses, chatted, and found that most of them did not follow the Japanese route, but sold to Westerners.

Those who dare to take the Japanese route are usually those made by the boss who are relatively large and have many people on board.

Some people left quickly and went downstairs to have fun, while others just waited in place.

About 10 minutes later, someone from the Xu family sent the contract, and everyone signed and pledged it for confirmation.

Each person pays a deposit of 2000 taels of silver.

After signing, most of the people went to play, and Ding Yi sat in the room thinking.

After an unknown amount of time, someone knocked on the door, but it was Xiang Huailai and two soldiers.

Xiang Huailai seemed embarrassed, but when Ding Yi asked, he realized that he wasn't playing, he was sorry, he felt sorry for the mother-in-law at home.

Ding Yi immediately looked at him solemnly, yes, this is a well-tested Ming cadre.

Coming out of Yuxiang Courtyard, the wind was blowing outside, and the weather seemed to be getting colder.

Ding Yi walked quietly on the street, thinking about how to get a bigger amount.

If you can't agree with Mrs. Xu, there are only two other options right now.

One is to find other bosses in Songjiang, but here in Songjiang, the Xu family is the largest, and the estimated allocation for other bosses' homes is only [-].

The second is that next year’s silk production season will come and go directly to various companies to buy, but in this case, first, the price will be high, and second, many people will also do the same, and may not be able to grab a large amount of goods. Retail purchases and wholesales, regardless of price and quantity There are differences.

Last time he succeeded here, it was all due to Zheng Zhilong's tax payment order, no one came, so he was favored.

"Master Ding, where are you going now?" Xiang Huailai asked at this time.

"Stay here first, and you guys find a way to go out and inquire about Mrs. Xu's situation in the Xu family. If necessary, you can spend some money."

"No." The three quickly agreed.

on the street.

A carriage drawn by two horses was heading east.

Everyone in Songjiang Mansion knew that this carriage belonged to Mrs. Xu from the Xu family.

The carriage is well-made, and the interior decoration is luxurious. The floor is covered with fur, and there are wooden tables and a stove on it.

Mrs. Xu closed her eyes and sat cross-legged on the inside. The little maid knelt and sat opposite her, picking up the stove from time to time to look at it, adding some water, and occasionally opening the window to let in some air.

"Ma'am, I think that General Ding is really interesting." The little maid suddenly laughed.

Mrs. Xu slowly opened her eyes: "Is it interesting? How about introducing you as a concubine?"

Swipe, the little maid blushed, "Lian'er is a vulgar person whether she wants to marry a general or not."

"This General Ding should be literate." Mrs. Xu said indifferently: "It may not be a rough person."

Lian Er asked strangely: "How does madam know?" Then she thought something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "Lian Er will serve madam for the rest of her life."

"Judging by his demeanor, he probably has some education." Mrs. Xu thought for a while, then suddenly said: "But Lian'er, you have to remember that the worst person in the world is a scholar."

"..." Lian Er.

She was at a loss, and didn't understand why Madam said that the worst people in the world are scholars?
She was raised by her wife since she was a child, and she can read and read. Are we all bad people?
Seeing her expression, Mrs. Xu knew that she didn't believe her, so she said softly, "You're still young, you will understand later."

"Scholars who read more books have more minds. They are the best at speaking sweet words to make girls happy."

"Scholar Shicang said it well, when righteousness kills more dogs, most of them are scholars who are guilty of evil—in the future, don't trust scholars easily—"

Lian'er thought for a while, then tilted her head: "Isn't Layman Shicang also a scholar? Why does Madam like his music so much?"

"..." Mrs. Xu was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly reached out and tapped Lian'er hard on the forehead.

"Ah!" Lian'er looked aggrieved, but did not dare to hum.

Soon, their carriage returned to Xu Mansion, and there were servants and housekeepers waiting for them at the door.

Lian'er got out of the car first, and then helped Mrs. Xu get out of the car.

As soon as he got out of the car, the butler, Old Xu, came over and said in a low voice, "Someone is here from Nanjing, and he is not kind."

Mrs. Xu's face became serious.
