Sign-in space: I grew rich in ancient times

Chapter 138 Difficulties
After eating the sweet-and-sour fish from his friend, Tang Yaoling's mood really improved, and his appetite recovered.

Wu Shengzhe looked at Tang Yaoling whose appetite had recovered, and thought that the chicken soup for the soul he had prepared was useless.

Looking at Tang Yaoling who had regained his appetite, Chen Boyu always felt that his appetizer had nothing to do with the sweet and sour fish, but because the dishes were made by his daughter, but seeing Tang Yaoling eating seriously, he felt that he was thinking too much.

At the end of the evening, a few teenagers and girls went out for a walk to digest food, talking and laughing. Wu Shengzhe looked at the backs of the children and said enviously: "I really envy them. They have partners who grow up with each other. In the future, they can also support each other. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, there will be endless courage to move forward."

Chen Boyu could understand Wu Shengzhe's mood, because their situations were actually very similar. They were young and worked hard alone, growing up alone, so he nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, although their road ahead is difficult, they can see a bright future. , they are all blessed."

Then the two looked at each other and smiled, Wu Shengzhe pointed to the study room and asked, "Are you interested in going to the study room to kill a few rounds?"

Chen Boyu hurriedly made a gesture of invitation, and led Wu Shengzhe towards the study.

On the other side, the boys and girls who came out of the courtyard changed their conversation from joking to caravans. Gu Xinfang said: "The tribes of the grasslands inside the pass, the Beidi royal family outside the pass, and the merchants from the Western Regions are interested in tea, silk and satin. The demand for porcelain products is very large. I dare not think about the textile industry, but I still want to try to buy one or two tea gardens.

In this way, part of the tea can be supplied by itself, and part of it can be purchased from outside, and the cost of spending will be much less. It is just that it is difficult to find talents to manage the tea garden, and they have to be trusted by themselves. There is not enough manpower. "

Tang Yaoling, Mu Yang, and Wei Chen didn't know the way, Chen Huiyin understood it all at once, looked at Gu Xinfang, frowned and said, "Sister Gu, it's not the tea garden in the south, bullying you is Make a new face and drive up the price!"

Gu Xinfang didn't expect Sister Qiao to be so perceptive, but she had already seen through it, and if she concealed it, she would show that she didn't trust them, so she nodded: "I guess the Gu family mistakenly thought that I was my person. .

So they teamed up with tea merchants and porcelain merchants to crowd out our caravan, quoting inflated prices, and we had to go to many places to collect the goods. We had to pick merchants that they didn't deal with in order to complete the transaction smoothly.

But if this continues, it is not a long-term solution. It takes too much time to trade goods, so many people eat and drink outside, and the number of times we go back and forth is reduced, and the transaction is reduced, which means that the profit will be reduced. In the long run , this loss is not a small sum. "

Because of the speed and convenience of the waterway, the distance from south to north and from east to west is shortened, and the speed of merchant ships is also supported by a large amount of manpower, which also leads to the fact that the charges for merchant ships are not cheap at all.

But for businessmen, it is within the normal range. After all, it saves time wasted on the road, and the number of trips increases. Even if the cost of the waterway is high, it is more than before. The number of round trips increases several times, which naturally earns more.

Chen Huiyin said happily: "They didn't expect you to disguise yourself as a man and go south to do business under a false identity. You are already very lucky. As for the tea garden, even if we can buy it, it is too far away and there is no influence to rely on. The most important thing is What's more, we don't have capable people to manage it, and the investment in the early stage is not small, so it's not cost-effective to buy a tea garden.

My idea is, since we are suppressed by the Gu family in the south, let’s buy tea in the north instead, not to mention Hedong Road and Hebei Road, but our Guannei Road, in fact, there are also tea producing areas. After returning home, I will ask Dad, let's see if he knows any tea merchants, if there are any tea merchants, please ask Dad to get in touch, so the tea problem will be solved. "

As for porcelain, Chen Huiyin actually has a formula for the proportion of porcelain materials in his hand, but these alone are not enough. Although the proportion of porcelain materials is important, without a skilled porcelain craftsman, everything is useless, so it is recommended She didn't even think about the matter of her own cellar, let alone mention it.

As for silk and satin, she believes that if she goes to Shu to sign in, she should be able to check out the detailed development materials of Shu brocade, and even the weaving technology. I don't have the ability to spread too big a stall.

So Chen Huiyin thought of another idea: "As for porcelain, I suggest giving up the southern porcelain for the time being, and we only buy northern white porcelain. As for silk and satin, I really have no choice. Let's use your previous method for the time being. Tell me what you want." Is there anyone available in the caravan?"

Gu Xinfang instantly understood what she meant, nodded and said: "There are three that can be cultivated, and now let them go out alone to collect tea and white porcelain."

At this time, Tang Yaoling said: "If it's just silk and satin, you can try Yizhou's Caiyi Cloth Shop. It is the largest cloth shop in Yizhou. It has a very good reputation in Yizhou. It has a complete range of fabrics and reasonable prices. The quantity is large, and there are discounts.”

Chen Huiyin's heart was moved when he heard the words, and he said to Gu Xinfang: "You listen to Dalang, go and try. I guess Caiyibuzhuang is backed by a big backer, and the Gu family must not dare to offend easily."

Gu Xinfang naturally knew Caiyibuzhuang, but the owner behind Caiyibuzhuang was too mysterious, so she didn't dare to come to do business, now seeing the little sister, even Tang Yaoling recommended Caiyibuzhuang, she nodded in response, It was very interesting not to ask about the identity of the owner behind Caiyibuzhuang.

After the business was finished, the food was almost gone, so everyone turned back the same way.

The next day, Chen Huiyin still ate a bowl of longevity noodles in the morning. Before the birthday banquet at noon, it was a gift-giving session. What Mu Yang gave was a round fan, and what Wei Chen gave was a pair of wooden scimitars. It happened that Chen Huiyin The pair of scimitars she played with before was a bit damaged, and she was thinking about getting another pair, which would save trouble.

It was Tang Yaoling's turn, and it was a seal carved by Helan stone. He handed the box containing the seal to Chen Huiyin, and explained: "I carved this with my own hands. You happen to be short of a private seal, so you don't need to go outside to order it now." Done."

The seal is very small, only the size of an adult's thumb. The names at the bottom are arranged with the surname on one side and the first name on the other side. On the top of the seal is her zodiac sign, a lifelike and cute little tiger.

"You are interested, I like the gift very much." Chen Huiyin said with a smile, at this time Gu Xinfang also took out a small brocade box, handed it to her and said, "Coincidentally, happy birthday, this is what I carefully prepared for you one's gift."

Chen Huiyin conveniently put Tang Yaoling's gift together with Mu Yang's and Wei Chen's gifts, and then took Gu Xinfang's gift.
