Make a lot of money!I got rich in the year of famine

Chapter 162 Small Business

The two of them lit a fire, and soon people gathered around it. They started boiling water to make tea while chatting with them.

"Are you two begging for food?" The person who spoke was a young man. Behind him was a horse team with forty or fifty two carts. There were nearly a hundred people escorting and escorting the carts.

Shen Qing stared at him for a moment and said with a smile: "No, the two of us dressed up like this just to make it easier for us to travel. Where is this guy from?"

"My home is in Yuzhou, and I come here to deliver goods."

"Oh... the south." Shen Qing was curious about what kind of goods he brought, but it was difficult to ask because it was a trade secret.

"The girl's family lives in Jingyang Mansion? Are they residents of the city?"

"No, our home is quite far from here. There is a small, remote village, not worth mentioning."

Both parties are smart people. As soon as they heard each other's words, they knew that each other had taboos, so they consciously stopped asking questions and started talking about some interesting topics, such as some of the most famous figures in Jingyang Mansion.

"I heard that Jingyang Mansion has been very lively recently. You must have seen many carriages coming here along the way, right? Even from Yuzhou, there are many people rushing here!" Zhao Jue said.

Shen Qing answered casually, "Oh? But what big thing is going to happen?"

Zhao Jue seemed to be very interested in this topic and was waiting for her to ask.

"It is said that the legitimate son of the Su family, the local emperor of Jingyang City, is planning to get married. The old lady of the Su family posted a message inviting women of the right age from several nearby states to come for a blind date."

"Ahem!" Shen Qing looked struck by lightning, "Is it so exciting?"

"What? What is explosive?"

"Nothing, it's okay, just keep talking."

"That's it. What else do you want to hear?" Zhao Jue felt that this little girl's words were really strange and her reaction was also strange.

Shen Qing thought for a moment and asked excitedly: "Then what if he likes them all? Are they all married?"

Zhao Jue had a strange expression, "No way!"

Another young man with a somewhat scornful face came over and said with a smile: "It is said that there are more than 30 posts. Even if not all of them are posted, there are still quite a few. Su Jing's body may not be able to bear so many beauties, and she is powerless. hehe!"

Zhao Jue blushed with embarrassment and quickly introduced, "This is my brother Zhao Xiang."

With that said, he scolded his younger brother, "There is a girl here, don't talk nonsense."

Zhao Xiang didn't take it seriously, "You're just talking nonsense, I'm telling the truth, okay, little sister, do you mind?"

He came over and squatted in front of Shen Qing, trying to see her face clearly. Unfortunately, her face was covered with gray and he could only judge her appearance from the outline.

Shen Qing was disgusted with his approach and coldly retreated some distance away, "I mind if you come too close. Please step back a little. I'm not deaf and can hear you."

Zhao Xiang suddenly burst into laughter, "Haha, you are an interesting girl."

Zhao Jue quickly explained, "I'm sorry, don't mind, girl, he's not a bad guy, he just likes to joke."

Shen Qing raised his eyebrows, "A joke? I don't think there's anything funny. Maybe he's the only one who thinks it's funny!"

"This..." Zhao Jue didn't know what to say.Shen Qing thought it was a good time and wanted to ask him about his situation, "Can you tell me what kind of business your family does, food, clothing, housing, and transportation?"

Zhao Jue smiled with relief, "What can't be said? Our family mainly makes salt, tea and sugar, which are common things. More than [-]% of the goods in Jingyang Mansion are supplied by our family. Say no. The same goes for your family’s food!”

Shen Qing: "It's possible. Hey, do you also deliver goods to other places? For example, Qingquan Town, our home is near that town."

"If someone orders it, we will deliver it, but we don't deliver bulk goods, so there are only two tea and salt shops in Qingquan that do business with us."

"Oh, that's it. Our family also has a tea field in the mountains. The tea produced is called Guapian. If you are interested, you can come to my house to taste tea before the Qingming Festival next year."

"Where do you live? Tell me your address. If I pass by, I'll pay you a visit."

Hearing what he meant, Shen Qing knew that he didn't take it seriously, but he smiled meaningfully and said, "If you miss this business of mine, I'm afraid you will regret it for the rest of your life."

Zhao Xiang suddenly pointed at her and laughed, "Haha, you little girl, you are not very old, but you are so good at boasting that you will blow your mind."

Shen Qing was so annoyed with him, "If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute!"

These words annoyed Zhao Xiang, "Hey! What a brave girl. Go to Yuzhou City and ask if there is any girl who dares to talk to me like this!"

Although the Zhao family is not an official, they are also wealthy businessmen. There are too many girls at home to count, and there are more than a dozen in his courtyard. They are all well-behaved and smart. They flatter him in every possible way, thinking that one day, they will be favored by him. Become the master.

Shen Qing annoyed him even more, "You should also go to Crescent Bay and ask around to see if anyone dares to talk to me like this!"

Cough!

Niu Bao couldn't help but cough. There weren't many people in Crescent Bay anyway, so let's just forget it!
Zhao Jue heard something else, "What place is the Crescent Bay that the girl mentioned? Is the girl's family also doing business?"

Shen Qing's face was a little tight, "It's just a small business, not worth mentioning."

She was telling the truth, but Zhao Jue thought she was being modest and thought of the tea business she just talked about and became interested.

"The tea you are talking about, approximately how many acres are there, and how much tea can be produced every year? Is it a new variety? How do you plan to price it, will it be exclusive or distributed?"

As soon as the experts make a move, they will know if there is any.

Shen Qing was shocked by his series of questions. He was embarrassed to say that after the tea garden was expanded, it would only be four or five acres. In the eyes of a big tea merchant like him, it was probably not worth mentioning.

The more she didn't say anything, the more interested Zhao Jue became and asked a lot of questions.

Zhao Xiang was impatient to hear this. He thought Shen Qing's words were interesting, so he wanted to talk to her, "Don't be like my brother. Opening and closing your mouth all day long are all about business. Isn't it good to have too much fun when you are young? Hey hey , let me tell you something interesting!"

"What?" Shen Qing had an indifferent expression.Some people just rush to get in and find themselves uncomfortable. They have no choice but to tell her that she has a body that sucks people!

Zhao Xiang didn't care about her attitude and said to her enthusiastically: "That's the one named Su Jing, do you know? He is a widower. He has been married and his mother-in-law has died, and there are more than one. Hehe! Let's send him a gift. His nickname is Suke’s Wife!”

"Pfft! Hahaha!" This time he was really laughing.

OMG!It's really funny to think that that person, who is as handsome as a fairy, got such a nickname.

Zhao Xiang was very proud of making her laugh, "Of course, he doesn't know this nickname. We only call it that in private. It would be a big deal if he knew it. Don't look at him being sick all day long, but this Siyin people are the cruelest."
