It’s No Use Calling Me Mom

      The only thing that can be exported at scale.

    As for cotton cloth, because the western industrialized cotton spinning technology and chemical printing and dyeing methods are far more advanced than domestic ones, domestic cotton cloth is uncompetitive in the face of foreign cloth, so that the governor of northern Zhili Zhang Zhang The machine weaving layout initiated by the adults was also run on by foreign cloth to nowhere.

    Wang Qingqing had a good mind about the question of Mr. Ye, she helped Mr. Ye back to the office, handed him a cup of tea, sat beside him and whispered quietly: "Father, this person from the Tianjin realm We have all the newspapers we ordered, whether it is foreign newspapers or our domestic newspapers, the information on them is not fair!"

    "When was there peace in our country? In the sixty or seventy years since the Taiping Rebellion, the Boxer Rebellion, the Heaven and Earth Society, the Xiaodao Society, and the White Lotus Sect have emerged one after another. The tossing is endless, didn't the former er cut off more than 20 heads in Wuhan?"

    The old man said with a sigh: "We are fighting infighting among ourselves, and the foreigners are not idle. Today this letter asks for money, and tomorrow's negotiating place is one after another. The moths keep going."

    "Peace! It's hard! The country hasn't been peaceful for decades, and the court doesn't want to change, and it won't be peaceful for decades." Old Master Ye shook his head and sighed: "Let's not talk about that. , Thinking of these, I feel uncomfortable and panic, and I don't recognize the word earthworm, what news is there in the foreign newspapers?"

    For the sake of business, Mr. Ye specially invited foreigners to teach the father and daughter to learn foreign language. The daughter, Ye Qingqing, is very good at learning, and can speak and write in English and German very fluently. , I learned a few greetings in German, but I can listen and speak English, but I can't write. In the old man's words, "I get dizzy when I see the word "earthworm".

    Wang Qingqing chuckled: "There is a lot of news in foreign newspapers, France and Germany quarrel every day, Britain helps France to blame Germany, Serbia and Austria-Hungary fight every day like black-eyed chickens , in order to help Serbia rectify its armaments several times, Dad, do you have any ideas?"

    "Wow!" Wang Qingqing clapped both hands and praised Master Ye: "It's strange that you can build a great prosperity with one hand, you really have a brilliant eye."

    "That's it!" Old man Ye was a little overwhelmed by Wang Qingqing's praise, he shook his head and got it for himself: "The old ancestor started his family with two looms, and passed it on to your grandfather for several lifetimes. It's just a cloth village with seventy or eighty machines. Back then, Jinmen was set aside as a concession. Your father still wanted to move the cloth village to Cangzhou. I bought a foreigner's machine with all my family's property, how can there be such a great prosperity today?"

    "Yes, yes, or Dad you are amazing." Wang Qingqing continued to tout the old man: "Looking at this Tianjin city now, there are only a handful of spinning mills that can compete with our big Shengchang!"

    Wang Qingqing gave a thumbs up to Mr. Ye as he spoke and shook his head: "You are always like this!"

    "Naughty!" The old man laughed and frowned: "You mean that Westerners have to fight themselves?"

    "Impossible!" Wang Qingqing approached the old man Ye and whispered: "The whole of Europe has been torn into a ball, seeing the sky and the ground quarreling, this is noisy, it is really hot, So why don't you fight?"

    "Isn't it possible?" The old man pinched his beard and frowned: "Aren't the emperors of their countries all in-laws? These in-laws have broken bones and tendons, usually How can you really disregard your relatives' feelings for a fight?"

    "Oh my father!" Wang Qingqing stomped: "You can't treat the royal family as ordinary people. How many people have killed their own brothers and sisters in order to be emperors since ancient times? When there is a conflict of interests, everyone is in harmony, and when there is a conflict of interests, what is the in-laws?"

     When can we fight?"

    "It's enough to win." Wang Qingqing broke his fingers and counted the old man: "Who should be the colony, who can be the boss of the Europeans, isn't it all a fight? As for When can we fight, depending on their stance, it will only be three or five years left."

    "Three or five years." Mr. Ye stood up and paced back and forth, he pondered for a moment and said, "If they really can fight, then this loom can also be bought, and then the war will be together. , I'm afraid that foreigners don't have the heart to dump foreign fabrics into our country, but we can take the opportunity to take back the market that was seized by foreign fabrics."

& nbsp; The machine is about to rot in your hands!"

    The words of the old man shocked Wang Qingqing, thinking that the IQ of this aboriginal should not be underestimated.

    She comes from later generations, and she naturally knows that the war in Europe has spread to almost the whole world. After this world war, Europe lost a large number of people, and many overseas investments were also lost. It was so badly damaged that even her international dominance was shaken that she made the big decision to buy a loom.

    And Mr. Ye can infer so many consequences from her only three or five sentences, which can be regarded as "visionary".

    Wang Qingqing asked cautiously: "According to the current situation, do you think this machine can't be bought?"

    “These large spinning mills in China are all making raw silk and cotton cloth, and most of them are small workshops that are not popular.”

    Master Ye started pacing back and forth again: "If this batch of looms can be ordered back, with three or five years of preparation, the output will reach its peak. If the fight starts, then in the cotton field in China, we will have a place in our great prosperity."

    "If the foreigner can't fight, Governor Zhang's Shanghai machine weaving layout will be a lesson for us."

    "Then we won't buy it?" Wang Qingqing asked Mr. Ye, "Or buy less to test the water first?"

    "No!" Mr. Ye slapped the armrest of the chair and stood up: "Not only do we have to buy, but we have to buy more! If we can reach an agreement with that Smith, we will order a thousand cloth machines, eight Ten thousand spindles."

    "Why? Didn't you say the risk was too great?" Wang Qingqing was taken aback by the old man's decision: "Why order such a large number of machines?"

    "Risk is opportunity. At that time I was able to persuade your grandfather and grandfather to start this big prosperity with full net worth. Now I can also support my daughter. You use our full net worth to buy machines, you Dad, I can do it, and you can do it, girl."

    The old man Ye made up his mind and smiled at Wang Qingqing: "It's good to earn, but it's not terrible to fail, isn't it just losing money, the ancestors can start with two looms, my daughter If you are so capable, you will be able to stand up again if you lose, but let’s start again with two looms.”

    Wang Qingqing's eyes were red, she followed the original owner's habit and stepped forward and took the old man Ye's arm and shook it gently back and forth: "Dad, thank you!"

    "Silly girl." Old man Ye rubbed his girl's head and said softly, "It's not easy for a girl to be in a shopping mall, and your daring heart is stronger than that of an ordinary man. It's too late to be happy with your father, why didn't I do my best to support you?"

    Wang Qingqing was grateful for the father-in-law of Mr. Ye, and the emotions of the original body came up again, which made her heart sour and sweet and uncomfortable. She rested her head on the shoulder of the old man, motionless, tears rustled down.

     "Okay, alright, stop your tears, I have to visit Mr. Wilson's house at night, it's not good to have swollen eyes, how can I be fascinated by that foreign devil?" Hand it to my daughter to wipe her tears.

    Wang Qingqing was amused by the old man's words, and the old man was relieved to see the girl who was laughing through tears. .

    The old man Ye started to feel nervous when he read Jiner's newspaper. The imperial court arrested a group of radicals who were uprising in Wuhan, and they all beheaded without saying a word. Today's newspaper published it. The names and places of origin of those people, the old man felt nervous when he saw this news.

    My niece had a deep-rooted love for that Cao Zixi. When Cao Zixi got married, the daughter was lingering in illness. Got to lose weight two or three times.

    Now that Cao Zixi has thrown herself into the revolution | the uprising, the girl is showing indifference to Cao Zixi's departure, but is her attitude the real emotion in her heart?

    Mr. Ye felt that his daughter was forcing a smile to calm his heart, and he was really afraid that if the news of Cao Zixi's beheading was published in the newspaper one day, his daughter would go crazy.

    Now that my daughter wants to take advantage of the turmoil in Europe to expand her business, she will put her entire net worth on her, and bear this burden, she must not dare to relax, her attention is all Concentrating on the business, I must have no time to think about that Cao Zixi?

    Good, good! The old man Ye, who consciously made a good move, was content with his own ingenuity, and couldn't help joking with his daughter.

    Because of the evening date with Mr. Wilson, the father and daughter of the Ye family went home early to wash up and prepare.

    Mr. Ye was still wearing an old-fashioned robe and jacket, but Ye Qingqing changed into a custom-made western-style men's clothes.

    Wear a small vest and tuxedo, then tie a straight bow tie, braid her long hair and cover it with a top hat, and Wang Qingqing, holding a cane, looks like a gentle, elegant and handsome when she walks out Extraordinary English gentleman.

    When the father and daughter of the Ye family went out, they ran into Cao Yuer who came back from a walk in the garden. Cao Yuer, whose feet hurt and could not stand up, leaned on Ma Zhang to help the father and daughter of the Ye family. A blessing: "I have met Ye's grandfather, Aunt Qing."

    "It's Yu'er." In view of his daughter's feelings for Cao Zixi, Mr. Ye has always treated Cao Yuer very favorably, and he said to Cao Yuer kindly: "I'm going out with your Aunt Qing tonight. Talking about business, is it alright for you to eat by yourself? I told the kitchen to cook what you like, don’t be polite, just tell the kitchen to cook it for you.”

    Cao Yuer, who had made up her mind not to cause trouble, looked at Wang Qingqing, who was dressed in high spirits and jumped onto the rickshaw lightly. Suddenly, a hostile anger came to her heart, why should she go by herself? She needs to be helped a few steps, but she can run and jump?

    Don't you love your dad? Now that her father's life and death are uncertain, how could she have the heart to dress like this to talk about business? What business are you talking about? It must be mixed with a group of unknown men!

    She shook off Zhang's mother and walked a few steps to the rickshaw and said to Wang Qingqing: "Qingyi, my father disappeared as soon as he left, I'm worried that I can't sleep well, can you send someone To find my father?"
