wind and rain scissors shop

Chapter 39-39.
Zheng Yuanfei glanced at Erya Baitian: "Don't talk nonsense to me. The scissors made by our Longshunhe are the best in the south of the Yangtze River. I am Longshunhe's young owner, how can I send the scissors made by other people to Boss Sai? I will definitely persuade My father gave Boss Sai the best scissors in the house."

Tian Erya begged: "The third young master should think twice. Long Shun and the scissors handed over to the Armed Forces Institute must not be moved. I will go to Boss Sai to explain it clearly, and ask her to tolerate it for two or three days."

Zheng Yuanfei interrupted her: "Stop talking nonsense, it's not up to you to intervene in the matter of Long Shunhe. I will manage the whole process of Boss Sai's purchase of scissors. Don't say anything more, get out."

"But……"

"It's nothing. Second brother." Zheng Yuanfei turned to Zheng Yuanli, "Let's go to the mansion to find my father and let him make a decision. I believe that my father will definitely agree with my opinion. Let Boss Sai use the scissors in stock first. "

"Okay." Zheng Yuanli agreed, and told the little guy to watch the shop, and follow his third brother to Zheng's house.

Tian Erya was very helpless. According to her status, she couldn't follow the young masters of the Zheng family into the lobby of the Zheng family, so she had to go back to her residence to rest.

Zheng Yuanli thought that his father would scold them severely when he heard the old San Yuanfei's idea.Unexpectedly, after listening to their report, father nodded in agreement with the third child.

Zheng Zongde was very happy: "Third son, since Sai Diaochan has taken a fancy to our scissors and wants to use our scissors on the stage, we must definitely meet her request."

Zheng Yuanfei came up to him: "Father, I think so too. Sai Diaochan has a great reputation in this area. If she uses our scissors to perform opera on her stage, our scissors will become even more famous. In the future, Sai Diaochan will If Diao Chan performed in the north and south of the river, our Long Shunhe's scissors would resound throughout the Qing Dynasty. However, the second brother said that our stock of scissors is insufficient and cannot be sold to Boss Sai. Boss Sai is still in a hurry to set up these scissors tonight. It's easy to rehearse on the stage. If we don't sell it to others, won't we delay their business?"

Zheng Zongde stroked his beard: "Second brother, we really can't even get out a thousand scissors in stock?"

Zheng Yuanli told the truth: "There are quite a lot of orders recently. Apart from the goods for the Armed Forces Academy, there are only [-] scissors left in the store. Boss Sai wants [-] scissors, and he needs to wait two or three days."

"Father." Zheng Yuanfei squatted at Zheng Zongde's feet, "Boss Sai has an inspiration now, and can't wait to rehearse a new play. It's the first time he wanted to buy our Long Shunhe's scissors, but found that we couldn't get them out. Good thing, if she talks to dignitaries and brings up this matter, wouldn't we Long Shunhe be more generous?"

Zheng Zongde nodded after deliberating: "The third one is right. The second one, the Armed Forces Institute has not yet issued an order to requisition knives. First, you can allocate a thousand scissors from the scissors reserved for them and deliver them to Boss Sai."

Zheng Yuanli turned pale with shock: "Father, absolutely not. We only kept two thousand scissors for the Armed Forces Institute, and they are all high-quality products. If once you give Boss Sai a thousand scissors, the Armed Forces Institute will suddenly issue a requisition According to the order of scissors, the quality of the scissors we hand over may vary."

"The scissors handed in by our family are of the best quality every year. However, the imperial court did not increase the unit price of the purchase, nor did they commend our family in words. I have long thought about lowering the standard of handed in scissors. It's an opportunity."

"Father, this is an errand of the imperial court..."

Zheng Zongde waved his hand: "Business must pursue the maximization of profit, and the scissors we turn over to the court must also consider profit. You don't have to worry, the errand of requisitioning scissors by the Armed Forces Academy will be handed over to Kangzhi County. My relationship with Kangzhi County has always been good. He Don't make things difficult for me because of this little thing, just do as I want!"

Zheng Yuanli could only agree: "Yes."

Zheng Yuanfei was very happy: "Father, you have never seen Boss Sai's real face, it is really beautiful and charming..."

Zheng Zongde sternly said: "Third brother, I heard that you have been running to Huiban more frequently recently. You are also a married person, so you should keep a little distance from the women outside."

Zheng Yuanfei's excitement subsided, and he stood upright with his hands down: "Yes, Dad."

"I have lived for a long time, and this is the first time I heard that someone wants to buy thousands of scissors for an opera performance. When the new play she rehearses will be staged, you must inform me, and I will definitely go to see it."

"Father, I must be paying attention to the news. As soon as the new play is staged, I will ask them to reserve the best seat for you."

Zheng Zongde stroked his beard slowly, and glanced at Zheng Yuanli: "Second brother, in this respect, you have to learn from your third brother. Just watch him watch a show, and he can win the business of a thousand pairs of scissors for us Longshunhe. Our store There is no ready-made goods in the store, so he just wants to embezzle the stock prepared for the court, he is bold and courageous. If you are as bold as him, you don’t have to accompany you to carefully pull orders.”

Zheng Yuanli served tea to his father and said with a smile, "Father, the third child has been courageous since he was a child, courageous and resourceful. I can't compare to him. I will stay in the shop and take care of our Long Shunhe business. Very content." He thought to himself that the third child was obsessed with Boss Sai's beauty, so he was blinded by lard, and his tongue was so smooth that he persuaded both his father and him, and he only hoped that he would not cause trouble in the future.

"You! You are too conservative. It is the youngest who dares to break through and start a new business. This is like me."

Zheng Yuanfei was proud of being praised by his father, and even flattered his father for a while, praising his father for his extraordinary ability, making his ancestral family business bigger and stronger, coaxing his father to smile and be in high spirits.

Tian Erya returned to Wutongyuan's residence, saw Xia Tian sitting in the yard waiting for her, ran over happily, and took out an oiled paper bag from her arms: "This is the elbow meat I specially reserved for you, you taste it taste."

Xia Tian wondered: "Where does the meat come from?"

"Don't worry about it, it's just a few small slices, I'm not willing to eat them, so I specially leave them for you, master."

"It's just a few pieces of elbow meat, do you really think it's a treasure? I don't like it if it's oily, so you should eat it yourself!"

Tian Erya begged: "I only have this condition, and I secretly obtained these behind my father's back. Don't be disgusted with it, just relieve your greed."

Xia Xia sneered: "Do you think that I, like you, can't eat meat a few times a year? I am the bookboy of the fourth young master of the Zheng family. We are afraid that the young master will get tired from studying, so we go to the fourth young master's room every three days to make supplements, and I will follow suit."

Tian Erya was very envious when she heard it, and pinched her elbow: "You really don't want to eat it?"

"Don't eat."

Tian Erya swallowed those elbow meat in a few mouthfuls, and licked her fingers unsatisfied: "Summer, you are lucky to be the young master's book boy. In this life, you will not worry about eating and drinking, and you can read and write."

Xia Xia grinned: "Do you think that being a school boy for the young master has a future? I used to have a good friend who was a school boy for the third young master. Because the third young master was not good at reading, my friend was often beaten for the third young master. The third young master skipped class and went to a brothel , my friend covered him up, and after letting the master know, he beat my friend dozens of times and kicked him out of the house. I heard that my friend became a beggar, and his life was miserable."

"It seems that following the right person is very important."

"That's right. There are five young masters in the mansion, and five bookboys are assigned to the mansion. Among these bookboys, I'm lucky enough to distribute them to the fourth young master. The fourth young master has a talent for reading since he was a child, and he is willing to work hard. I followed him and never I haven't been beaten or scolded by the master and my husband. The fourth young master is also kind and has a very soft heart. I can follow him only after I accumulated virtue in my previous life."

Tian Erya complained: "How can he be so good? You are exaggerating."

Xia Tian rolled his eyes: "Fourth young master is really nice. In the afternoon, you threw stones at him, but he didn't even bother with you."

"You were in the carriage, too?"
