Chapter 938 Qi Ke's Order Meeting ([-])

"father."

When Bai Qing entered the room, he saw his father, General Bai, sitting in the hall. As soon as he yelled, he saw his younger brothers and sisters disappearing around the decorative screen on the left side of the hall. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he seemed to be outside again.

"Is there a yard behind this?"

"There is a back building at the back. We all live there. We left a room for you, and the front wing room is for the servants. Isn't this military post formerly a landlord's house? This small courtyard may have been used by children, grandchildren, or women and children." General Bai said simply and casually, "It's pretty well preserved."

"That's because there's no money to tear down and rebuild."

Bai Qing flicked up his clothes, and sat down on the chair next to his father's. Just in time, a servant came in from outside. He brought a tea tray and placed it on the tea table beside Bai Qing's hand. He poured him a cup of hot tea before quietly retreating, closing the The door does not disturb their father-son conversation.

"What's the purpose of tearing down and rebuilding? Waste this great landlord's house, look how good it is now, what's going on in the village, all the guests who come to play have places to live, how can the barracks be so comfortable?"

"I was just about to ask, why are you all here? You didn't say a word before you came, which surprised me. Qi Ke's maid is the one who welcomes guests and guides the way here. Are you afraid of being discovered by her?" Bai Qingduan Picking up the teacup in the palm of his hand, he blew on it, took a few sips, the hot tea warmed his stomach.

"We can't see people?" General Bai Da, who is clearly a Confucian general, glared, and suddenly he burst into the aura of a fierce general on the battlefield. If it wasn't for the distance, he would have slapped him down, "Besides, we are here to play and buy things. Yes, Qi Ke knew it when he knew it. Doesn’t she do business? Believe it or not, even if she knew that our family was here, she wouldn’t take the initiative to come over to say hello? Do you want to bet? "

"No gambling." Bai Qing admitted that his father was right, and he didn't know why he was so nervous.

"coward."

"It's fine to buy things. Qi Ke's daily necessities are really diverse and useful, but what are you doing here?" Bai Qing ignored his father's contempt, but felt that there was something wrong with his father coming here, "The last one You don't care about the attack on the merchant ship?"

"What are you looking for? The Five Elements Banner Alliance did it. Sooner or later, their lair will be overthrown."

"Don't talk about what will happen in a few years. Let's make money to build a few more boats. If there are no boats or guns, what will they do to destroy their lair."

"Aren't I here to discuss business?" General Bai also grabbed his teacup and took a few sips slowly.

"About business? Talk about what?"

"Hey, didn't you say that there will be cotton yarn for sale in the yarn field, did you ask me if I want it?"

"Oh, yes, the yarn farm seems to have been built. I was worried about the price increase of cotton, but now the market is already seven taels of silver a load. How can I afford it? Unexpectedly, the transportation to Qingshui Port The cotton boat was chased by pirates and lost its way and came to the estuary, hehe~" About such a coincidence of good luck, Bai Qing rejoices every time he thinks about it.

"I also feel lucky." General Bai was also very happy about this, "If we went to Qingshui Port, the five shipments of cotton would have been divided up by merchants before we got the news, and now the five shipments are at the mouth of the river. Wan, even if outsiders hear the gossip, it’s useless, if they can’t get in, it’s all ours.”

"Father came here on purpose to discuss the cotton yarn business with Qi Ke?"

"You sent a message to their captain, saying that you hope they can stabilize the supply?"

"Speaking of which, now let's wait for Village Chief Jia to negotiate a long-term price that is acceptable to both parties. Don't change the price every time. It will make the price of cotton yarn, gray cloth and dyed cloth weaved by our factory unstable."
