Chapter 316 Jealousy
At that time, they thought that it might be that the Taifu's House didn't want to have too much involvement with the merchants or the three royal merchants, so they didn't agree to join the Beijing Chamber of Commerce. They didn't know that it was because Lin Shuran couldn't understand their domineering and despicable cooperation methods that they refused.

However, they still took the cooperation document handed over by Xu Minghan. The shopkeeper of the Wu family read it first. He was gloomy and cold, and then the shopkeepers of the Yan family and the Bai family also took a quick look. After reading it, their faces were similar to those of the shopkeepers of the Wu family.

"It's impossible!" The shopkeeper of the Wu family was so angry that he patted the table, but Xu Minghan just glanced at him coldly, his face was a little more thought-provoking. They disagreed with this cooperation document, and they might be at a disadvantage. Who is the one!
"Several shopkeepers, please show this document to your respective patriarchs, maybe they will accept it!" Xu Minghan said again with a smile.

However, the three shopkeepers all glared at him at the same time. They looked at Xu Minghan with a bit of contempt, and thought that he was whimsical. , and unconditionally provide the shop and goods that the association will facilitate to the Xu family. In return, the Xu family will give the chamber of commerce a [-]% bonus.

"[-]% bonus? Humph, what do you think of our chamber of commerce?" The shopkeeper of the Wu family scolded angrily. Xu Minghan's cooperation document was simply humiliating the chamber of commerce, so he threw up his sleeves and left without showing any face.

Immediately afterwards, the shopkeepers of the Yan family and the Bai family also left. Obviously, this cooperation document would be difficult for the third-class shopkeeper, and Xu Minghan didn't care. He waited for others to leave, and slowly walked towards the cooperation document that was thrown on the ground , bent down to pick it up, and cherishedly blew the dust that didn't exist on it.

When writing this cooperation document, Lin Shuran once said this sentence: "A real chamber of commerce and businessmen should be mutually beneficial, rather than harming and embezzling the interests of businessmen, otherwise the chamber of commerce will be meaningless."

"I don't think it's too much to give you [-]%!" Xu Minghan carefully folded the cooperation documents and put them in his arms, muttering to himself, and walked out of Penglai Restaurant. I believe that the people of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce will not think about letting him join the association in the future. Bar.

In the next half month, the business of the Xu family sugar store got better day by day. It was crowded with people who came to buy sugar and candy from morning to night. Moreover, the wealthy households in the city directly approached Lin Shuran, and wanted to buy sugar every month. They bought a large amount of white sugar from Xu's sugar shop, and some businessmen approached Xu Minghan, saying that they would cooperate with him to transport Xu's white sugar and candies to other places for sale.

Seeing the good business of the Xu family sugar store, more than one person was jealous, besides the members of the three royal merchants of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, and Su Yunsheng, the son of the great Sima Suhe.

Su Yunsheng owns a sugar store under his name. Thanks to his status as the son of Da Sima, his sugar store business has always been good, and many mansions in the capital buy sugar from his store. Earned a lot of money for him.

But now there is another Xu family sugar shop in the capital, and it also sells a kind of white sugar that he has never seen before, and directly brought the business to the palace, and even robbed most of his business in the capital. The business of the Su family's sugar store has plummeted, and he is often worried about it.

In secret, he also asked someone to inquire about the Xu family's sugar shop. Although he found the place, there were guards around the sugar workshop, and no strangers were allowed to approach, and all the people there were very vigilant and careful, and even had some martial arts skills. Basically, it's not easy to mess with at first glance.

On this day, Su Wanwan returned to her natal home early in the morning. Although Xiao Chen had already written her a divorce letter, she tore it up long ago, and her father, Su He, had already talked to her in-laws. She doesn't count, she is still the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, after the queen mother allowed her to return to the mansion, she also returned to the servant man's mansion.

In the past two months since she came back, she has been acting very well in front of Xiao Chen and her in-laws to prove that she has really changed. Before, she was only dazzled by jealousy because she loved Xiao Chen too much. Reflecting on it, she knew she was wrong, and would do her duty as a wife and daughter-in-law in the future, but Xiao Chen still didn't care about her very much, and even used business as an excuse to not see her.

Su Wanwan felt depressed, so she often came back to her mother's house during this time. After meeting her mother and sister-in-law, she learned that her elder brother was worried about the business of the sugar store, so she went to see him.

"Brother, haven't you thought of a good solution yet?" Su Wanwan had also heard that a new sugar shop opened in the General's Mansion, and the business was booming. It was also Lin Shuran's luck that Xu Junze was the orphan of the Ren family who was rescued, and the dragon gave birth to dragons and phoenixes. Rats are born with phoenixes, and mice are born with the ability to make holes. It seems that Xu Minghan was also born to be a master of business.

Su Yunsheng glanced at his sister, and nodded with a bad expression. If the other party was a small person, he would have solved it without any effort, but the other party's status and power are not low, and it is difficult to move.

Su Wanwan rolled her eyes, approached her brother with a smile, and said intentionally: "Brother, don't be so worried, what's so special about it, I see that Xu's sugar shop buys brown sugar from sugar merchants in Sichuan, but it's not uncommon for them to buy brown sugar." Who sells white sugar to him? It can be seen that the white sugar in Xu's sugar shop is changed from brown sugar, but I don't know how this brown sugar turns into white sugar. As long as the source of brown sugar in Xu's sugar shop is cut off, they will not be able to make white sugar Come on, when the time comes, the sugar in the palace won't be available, and they won't have the sugar in the various prefectures, so they will definitely offend people. Xu Junze is not in the capital, even if he is protected by the emperor and queen mother, the Xu family has offended people a lot before. There are not many, but there will be a lot of trouble!"

Su Wanwan's words made Su Yunsheng suddenly enlightened, the brother and sister smiled tacitly, and there was a sinister light in their eyes.

In the next few days, Xu Minghan suddenly discovered that those sugar merchants were inexplicably unwilling to sell the sugar to him, and the reasons they gave were also different. Some said that the sugar was bought by other buyers halfway, and some said it was transported by water. At that time, the boat overturned and sugar entered the river, and some simply said that there was no raw material in Shu.

Lin Shuran also learned about this. She asked Xu Minghan that the brown sugar in her hand could last for another five days at most. If there was no raw material for brown sugar, the amount used in the palace alone would not be enough.

"Mother, I've sent people to go directly to Sichuan to find raw materials, but it takes a few months to go back and forth, and the long-distance water can't quench my thirst. What should I do?" He also became anxious when there was no rice to cook.
