The shop in Lotus Li arrived a few days ago. It was leased to a rouge shop with a rent of 1000 taels a year.

Xiang Wan didn't expect to be as profitable as the restaurant after it was recovered, but wanted to save it as a dowry to Xiang Zhao. After all, her parents were gone, and as the second sister, she also wanted to do more for her while she was able. think about it.

When the shop was retracted, she didn't think about what to do, but since Shen Qian took the initiative to come to the door, she had no reason to let go of this convenience. Not to mention, now there are nearly a hundred people in the family and the shop I am afraid that there will be more people opening a branch in the future. Currently, the purchase of fabrics every season is a lot of money. Even if the business is in a downturn in the future, it will be self-sufficient.

There is a shop, but the people who look at the shop have not thought about it yet. With the popularity of customers like clouds, it seems a lot shabby to come to the cloth village. , I sit on both sides.

Xiang Wan multiplied the number of fabrics needed by the family several times as a list for the first purchase from Shen Qian, but he was really unfamiliar with this line of work, so he had to go to his sister to learn from it first.

Xiang Qing had nothing to do recently, seeing her younger sister coming to the door, she inevitably mentioned the matter about Lu Zhan before.

"Aunt Xie sent someone back and forth, and I said, the Lu family is not a good match, what is going on? Could it be that Lu Lang will not meet your wishes? Or is he duplicity, just a red mouth and white teeth in the dark? us?"

"It's Mr. Lu's mother who has some prejudices against me. I thought about it, and I'm already disliked before we talk about marriage. If we really become a family in the future, I'm afraid it will be even more troublesome."

"Since that's the case, don't worry about it. I'll talk to you when I find a better candidate."

"It's not urgent. I'm here today to ask my sister for help."

"What are you still talking about, just talk about it if you have something to say."

"I want to open a cloth shop, and I have found a source of goods, but I really don't understand the way to do it, especially the current market situation, which is even more uncertain."

"I don't have a cloth shop right now, but according to the price of bare materials in the embroidery workshop, the purchase cost of ordinary cloth is only about [-]% of the market price, and the more expensive the cloth, the greater the profit margin."

"So that's how it is. I'll go to Yujie Street in the afternoon to check the market, so as not to lose my eyesight."

The two sisters talked about their business experience, and before they knew it, it was noon. Shang Zihuan came back very early today, just in time for the two sisters to have dinner.

"Why did you come back so early today?"

"I came back to get some things, and I have to go back to the Yamen in the afternoon. When did Xiang Wan come?"

"Brother-in-law is well, I'll come to see my sister, and come to learn from the scriptures."

"Oh? What scriptures did you get? Could it be that a good thing is coming, come to learn the way of imperial husband with my sister?" Shang Zihuan didn't know that Xiang Wan and Lu had a problem.

"What are you talking about? No one is serious, but if you have a suitable candidate, you really have to keep an eye on it for Wan'er."

"How did you say that, General Lu Lang?"

"Don't mention that family. A village woman dares to show her nostrils to the sky and show the face of our girl. As long as her son is that sweet potato, our Yu family's daughter is not nobody wants."

"Is Lu Langjiang's mother dissatisfied with this marriage? What does he say?"

"I haven't shown up since the afternoon of the [-]th day of the first lunar month." Xiang Wan added, since my sister and brother-in-law mentioned it, there must be an explanation, and it can be regarded as a beginning and an end.

"I know about this matter. Lu Lang will be sent by His Royal Highness King Qi on business, and he won't be able to come back for a while. To be exact, he may not be able to come back in one piece."

"How do you say that?" Xiang Qing was also very surprised.

"Don't tell anyone else about this. On the surface, His Royal Highness Qi Wang sent him back to the domain to rectify military affairs, but in private, he was sent back with a tiger charm. Of course, these are all rumors from Qi Wang. .”

"So what actually?"

"According to my guess, this rectification of military affairs is fake, and the deployment of troops is not real. If they really wanted to transfer troops, they would not send such a conspicuous person there with such a big fanfare. Who doesn't know that he has always been His Highness' right-hand man."

"Brother-in-law is saying that Mr. Lu is just a bait thrown out?" Xiang Wan understood almost instantly, no wonder he never showed up.

"I didn't say anything."

"Isn't General Lu Lang in danger for his life on this trip? Fortunately, our two families have not made any agreement." Xiang Qing thought it was a pity before, but this will only be fortunate, otherwise, my sister might not only be an abandoned wife, but also a Carrying Koff's reputation.

"Sister, Mr. Lu saved my life anyway."

"Okay, okay, it's just you who are soft-hearted, but from what you say, this mission is really dangerous. I hope everything goes well for him."

Shang Zihuan and Xiang Wan had guessed correctly. Lu Zhan was more than 100 miles away from the capital, and he was trying to get rid of the pursuit of the two groups.

Although King Shou also doubted the real purpose of Lu Zhan's trip, and even guessed that King Qi deliberately put a bait to wait for him to take the bait, but he couldn't take this risk. Transferring the garrison of King Qi's domain, his plan to force the palace to usurp the throne next month will have too many changes. , and hired a pair of bounty killers from the rivers and lakes, and only waited for Lu Zhan to go to Beijing to attack, with the purpose of killing Lu Zhan on the way.

His Royal Highness King Qi also secretly arranged a group of people to protect Lu Zhan. What he wanted was for Lu Zhan to arrive in the fief safely, forcing King Shou to jump over the wall in a hurry and disrupt his rhythm.

Xiang Wan had previously resented Lu Zhan's treachery and lack of responsibility, but now he could only worry about him. In this age of cold weapons, human life is worthless. Not to mention that the King of Shou will kill him, I am afraid that even Lu Zhan who is loyal to him His Royal Highness King Qi didn't care much about his life or death.Although the two of them were not destined to be husband and wife, after all, they met once and saved their lives, so Xiang Wan was inevitably a little worried.

When Xiang Wan brought people to visit Ruyun, she was still worried about Lu Zhan's safety, but she didn't know that Shen Qian had been waiting for her in the private room on the second floor for a long time.

"I'm really sorry. I just went to the Shangfu, and I made Boss Shen wait for so long. It's really rude."

"It's okay, I have nothing else to do today, just come to see the fabric requirements that Boss Yu ordered, so I can add it to the next ship and bring it over."

"It's hard for you to think about me so much. I drew up the list in a hurry yesterday, and I asked Boss Shen to look it over."

"I have all these materials, but according to me, although this Cuixia brocade is good, it is a little out of season now, and this material should not be stored for a long time, and it is easy to get moldy when it catches up with the rainy season."

"It's also thanks to your palm eye, so let's replace these two hundred pieces of Cuixia brocade with Tianshuibi. The nobles in the capital city have started buying summer shirts two months in advance, and this material is expected to be in short supply."

"It's okay, seven days at most, five days at least, Boss Yu's goods will definitely be on the next ship."

"Then I would like to thank Boss Shen. I don't know how much these cloths cost, and how much is the advance payment?"

"According to the rules in this industry, the deposit starts at 3000%, and we are cooperating for the first time, so we should have gone offline, but now Shen has some funds in his hands, so I can only have the audacity to ask Boss Yu for five. I have already paid in advance, and I estimate right now that the total price of your batch of fabrics is around 500 taels, based on [-]% of the current market price, the deposit will be half: [-] taels."

"Okay, I'll ask shopkeeper Dai to bring up the banknote later. I wonder if the deed should be made today or wait until you return to the house?"

"I carry my seal with me, so I don't need to go back to get it. It's just that Shen is really ashamed. I charged you such a high deposit for the first time. The cloth can’t be sold, so the cash is a little tight.”

"Boss Shen, don't worry about it. Who hasn't folded their hands yet? I don't know what kind of material this boat cloth is made of?"

"This boat is made of fine Gebu from Songjiang. There are 3000 pieces in total. Each piece costs 3 taels of silver, and the current market price is around 7 taels of silver."

"To tell you the truth, my family is in mourning, and I use this kind of cloth on weekdays. Although it is much more expensive than coarse cloth in other places, it is finer and tighter, and it is much more decent when worn out. If the cloth is not Question, I intend to order 2000 horses, is there any negotiation on the price?"

"Of course there is no problem with the cloth, but Ms. Yu has so much cloth, I'm afraid she won't be able to keep it after this summer. Do you want to think about it?"

"I have my plan, you just say a reserve price, I am willing to pay the full amount."

"Miss Yu is so straightforward, I'll tell you the truth. The cost of buying this cloth is two or three taels of silver, plus the freight and filial piety on the road. You can pay for two and a half taels of silver."

"In this case, let Boss Shen draw up a contract, and our cooperation will start today."

"Then I will thank Boss Yu for taking care of me."

"It's true that Boss Shen will take care of me in the future."

Shen Qian knew in his heart that he owed Xiang Wan a favor this time.

Xiang Wan didn't eat up such a large inventory in one bite because he wanted to help Shen Qian, but he smelled some unusual information from his brother-in-law's words: the battle between King Qi and King Shou has almost reached the stage of seeing nothing. I'm afraid it's about to change, don't care who will sit on that chair in the future, the three-month national funeral cannot escape, not to mention how many people who are in the wrong camp will be cleaned after the change of dynasty. is just in time.

Xiang Wan paid the banknote happily, and Shen Qian's Songjiang Cloth delivered it happily. Before dinner, they were divided into more than a dozen cars and transported to the gate of Yu's Mansion in Hehuali: the shop is single-storey, but there is not such a big warehouse.

All the servants at home came out to help, even Aunt Su, who usually didn't show up very much, followed her to help, and Xiang Wan didn't treat her politely, and directly entrusted her with the work of keeping the fabric in and out of the warehouse in the future, which is considered a good job, Aunt Su I used to like these silks and satins the most. Instead of letting her sit bored in this deep house and compound every day, it is better to give her a living, and have something to look forward to for the rest of her life.
