Chapter 240 Partners (3)
He Hua ignored the saying that women will embroider, and said: "Yes, even in other places, women will embroider some things at home and sell them. This shop is just the beginning. When our business is good, there will be more. Is there any merchant who will take the initiative to find us, there are still many women in Jixian County, I think one shop is too small, come, let's make another drink for the growth of our business in the future."

After drinking another cup, He Hua looked at the dishes on the table and said, "Everyone eats deliciously. We didn't eat so well in Ji County."

They all laughed.

Xu Shijie said: "Then what should we do next? According to our statistics, there are some people in Ji County who can make ironware, carpenters, ceramics, etc. These are people with craftsmanship, and the things they make are not collected!"

This is also what Hehua is thinking about. These are real technical talents. Hehua and the others have also been to many shops, but unfortunately they ignored them. "Do you have any good ideas?"

Zhao Li shook his head first, he didn't understand anything, his task at this time was to follow them to familiarize themselves with the environment, so that he could get acquainted with them when escorting the goods in the future.

The others also shook their heads. It is their business whether they are willing to cooperate or not, and they can't force it!
Seeing them shaking their heads, He Hua said helplessly, "I really want to force them to compromise."

Wu Jiafan had an idea, "It's okay!"

Lotus blinked at him. "You mean me to use force? Well, that's exactly what I mean."

As soon as the lotus words came out, Xu Shijie and Ding Manxue regained their spirits. They had long thought that this was the simplest and most direct way.

Wu Jiafan shook his head and said: "We can't do this. Princess Mengshu came to Ji County to help the people's lives. No one knows that if you use power now, you will be dug out by someone in the future. It will damage the image of the royal family. Can't use it."

"Then what did you mean by that?" He Hua asked disappointedly.

Under their expectant eyes, Wu Jiafan said: "We can't force the common people, but we can ask the officials here for help. There is a saying that if there is a direct way, we don't take detours, right? We have to turn a corner too!"

Everyone waited for him to continue.

Wu Jiafan coughed and continued: "The lotus is a princess, this status is enough to overwhelm people, the magistrates here are still not flattering, as long as the lotus makes a request, they will definitely help, we just need to let them tell the businessmen here, who will tell me?" If we cooperate, we will get the protection of the government. Although there is no real benefit to this, these businessmen are not short of money. They just hope to build a good relationship with the officials, which will benefit their business. We will let the county magistrate here The magistrate met with these businessmen for a meal, and had a good exchange of feelings."

He Hua clapped his hands, "That's a good idea. When we started our business, didn't it go so smoothly because we climbed up to a high-ranking official? These people must have thought about it too. Let's do it like this, Xiaobao, you are so smart!"

When Xu Shijie heard her praise Wu Jiafan, he immediately stood up and said, "I'm the official you've climbed up to!"

Wu Jiafan said with contempt: "It's not you that we climbed."

"Hmph, if it wasn't for me, would you have been able to climb up?" Xu Shijie said angrily.

Lotus put a piece of chicken leg in Xu Shijie's bowl, and said, "Yes, it's all thanks to you. I will reward you with a chicken leg."

Wu Jiafan picked up the bowl, "I want chicken legs too."

Lotus wondered, "You remember you like to eat chicken wings."

"I like to eat chicken drumsticks now." Wu Jiafan gave Xu Shijie a sideways look.

Lotus had no choice but to find another chicken leg from the plate and put it in his bowl.

After eating, they each returned to their guest rooms to rest.

Early the next morning, they found the magistrate's yamen. There was no prefect in this city, and the prefect was in another county, which was more prosperous than here.

It might be too early, the guards here are still a little confused, Zhao Li stepped forward and asked, "Is the magistrate here?"

A guard yawned and said, "Our master is still sleeping, and you don't even need to check what time it is."

Zhao Li said: "Then I would like to trouble you to report that there are important people in the capital looking for him. I believe he will come out to greet him immediately."

When the guard heard this, he looked at He Hua and the others again. Seeing that they were all dignified and not ordinary people, they hurried in to report, for fear of offending the nobleman.

They waited for a while before someone came out to welcome them in.

All the way to the inner hall, a middle-aged man greeted them with a smile, "You guys are from the capital, what do you want to do?"

Thinking that this is the magistrate of Qi County, Wu Jiafan said, "This is Princess Mengshu."

"Princess?" Shi Zhixian asked in surprise.

Lotus slowly took out a sign to show him, which is the queen's status symbol.

The magistrate of Shi was shocked, and hurriedly knelt down and shouted: "I didn't know the princess was coming, so I was far away and welcome the princess to forgive me."

Lotus said: "Come on, my princess is here to discuss something important with you."

Shi Zhixian got up and said respectfully: "Princess, please speak."

Lotus deeply feels that having a status is different. Whether it was in the past or now, having a status means that it is much easier to succeed. Hey, it’s not for nothing.He Hua said solemnly: "My princess has been doing disaster relief work in Ji County, and I am very worried about the lives of the people in Ji County. Although they are out of danger now, their lives will not be guaranteed in the future. That is why I am looking for you now. "

Of course Shizhi County knows that a flood and a plague have occurred in a place, and it is definitely impossible to make a comeback. Now it is said that the people in Ji County will soon have houses to live in. This is enough to surprise him. I didn’t expect the princess to want them to live in peace. Worrying, he wondered: "But what can I do?"

Lotus said: "You can do a lot. It's inconvenient for the princess to come forward now, and you are considered the biggest official in Qi County. The people here will definitely give you thin noodles. It's too late to curry favor with you. We are here this time. The businessmen here cooperate to sell some commodities from Jixian County here, so that the people in Jixian County will have money and a source of livelihood. But the people here seem to reject outsiders, so we want to let You come out."

When He Hua said this, Shi Zhixian understood. He didn't expect the princess to be so smart. He didn't know if it was her thinking or the people around her.

Lotus said: "Well, I will give you a list later, many of which are technologies from the people's society of Jixian County, and they have to find the corresponding sellers for their goods. Go find such shops and go to Fumanlou , we will book a big private room there, when you bring them over, remember that you have to show that as long as anyone cooperates with us, you will be very satisfied and take care of them in the future, I believe the people here should be very happy to work with them You make good friends."
