A piece of paper

As night fell, the shopkeeper of Baixiang Pavilion poked his head out of the food delivery window, holding a toothpick in his mouth. While ringing the bell and handing the hot dishes to the waiter, he spoke loudly to the high-spirited middle-aged man not far away, "Yes. I always envy your luck!"

In high spirits, Chen Dafu wiped his shiny scalp, "Hey! Why are you envious!"

"When I was young, I had my mother to support me, but now that I'm old, a wonderful girl flew out of the sky!" The shopkeeper of Baixiang Pavilion and Chen Fu have been brothers for decades. After cooking the last dish, he came out of the stall and opened a pot of wine for Chen Fu. He poured a cup and spoke towards the second floor, "Such a big old man, I'm surprised he's serving your daughter to the table!"

Chen Fu said cheerfully, "It's easy to talk about."

The shopkeeper of Baixiang Pavilion, whose surname is Feng, was approached by Boss Feng, "Look at Old Man Ma at the east end of the city, Boss Niu at the west end of the city, and Boss Zhu at the north of the city. They are all here! What are they doing!"

Cow, horse, pig, what? Large livestock gathering?

Chen Fu dug his molars and said, "How did I know!"

Boss Feng said "tsk", "Why don't you go up and sit down?"

Chen Fu was horrified: "It's okay if you're tired of cooking! You're still urging me to work!"

Boss Feng:.
People have good luck, and they do have this destiny.

Looking at the old man Hengji, he was afraid that his own daughter would be capable, so he would seize the opportunity to lock her up at home and show off on his own - he would not be able to enjoy all the blessings and work every day. I really don't know what he was thinking.

Boss Feng glanced at his old friend, and he didn't like it for some reason: He's about the same age as him, but he's so smooth-skinned? The hair is black too! The eyes are bright too! At first glance, it seems that I have never experienced a beating to make money!
Really unpleasant.

Boss Feng thought for a while and suddenly said, "My grandson will be one year old next month, please remember to come."

Chen Fu:? Let’s talk about next month and next month.
It took me a long time to realize that my old friend had changed the track to compete with his children!
Chen Fu sneered and looked at his old friend with a relaxed look as if he had a chance to win: Wait until I tell you who my son-in-law is, and I won't scare you to death!
Hmm. But I won’t say it now.

My daughter doesn’t seem to know that I am about to have multiple sons-in-law.

After about an hour, the elegant rooms on the second floor dispersed one by one. Xian Jin called a mule cart to take Chen Fu back to Juyuan. After seeing off several bosses, he took Aunt Zhong and Qiqiqi to the east of the city.

When we came out of the narrow alley again, the moonlight was in the sky, and the crescent moon was like a hook.

Xianjin looked calm and handed a thick stack of brown paper bags to Qiqiqi, "Send it to the post house where Boss Huo is staying in Shandong and ask him to sign immediately and stamp it with the red seal of Huoji Printing House. Pay 20,000 yuan in advance." Dao Suxuan paid a deposit of three thousand dollars for the first phase. If the sale of the first phase goes smoothly, then the second and third phases will still be sold at a price of one dollar and twenty-eight yuan - Suxuan will not increase within three years. Price, this is my promise to him."

Qi Qiqi took the brown paper bag, turned to look at the mansion with two lonely red lanterns, and lowered her voice, "She is willing too?"

The corners of Xianjin's lips curved, "She doesn't want to, she... is willing."

Qi Qiqi was stunned for a moment, then understood.

Aunt Zhong didn't understand, but it didn't stop her from shining in what she was good at, "In the past two days, Boss Huo went to Hengji first, then to Baiji, and the Yunliu family didn't delay either, Most likely, he went to feel the price. Twenty thousand dollars on paper is not a small order. If he signs a contract with someone else, it will be difficult for us to end it - our reputation is completely ruined in front of those small workshops. "

Xian Jin smiled and said, "About what time will Boss Huo return to the inn these days?"

Madam Zhong whispered, "Before Youshi, about three quarters of Shenshi."

Before 5pm.

Xian Jin asked again: "Are you sober when you go back? Does he look drunk?" Aunt Zhong shook her head, "He is sober. I have never seen him drinking."

He smiled brightly and said firmly, "Then he must not have successfully signed a contract with any company."

It took Madam Zhong a quarter of an hour to react before she finally understood: When a man talks about business, he likes to have a banquet and drink wine after the deal is concluded!
Xianjin walked out with a calm tone and a confident and confident tone, "Twenty thousand dollars sounds like a big deal. Calculated based on three liangs and one dollar, the profit is about four thousand taels. According to Boss Huo's requirements, it will take a long time." Three years. The profit is a thousand hundred taels a year, and you need to use all your manpower to make this money - Hengji will never do it!"

"Let's talk about the big workshops of Hengji and Yunji. Nowadays, they are looking ahead to the top. It is impossible to give up the price, and it is impossible to honestly make Suxuan that cannot be outstanding."

"This business is just useless to Hengji. It would be a pity to abandon it if it is tasteless. The progress of the signing cannot be fast."

Aunt Zhong's eyes were focused, and she was satisfied with Xian Jin's words. She frowned and asked, "Can Heng Lian leave this business to the small workshop below like us?"

Xian Jin smiled, "Then what does he want?"

Aunt Zhong was stunned.

"Is it possible to let him take a commission to earn a commission?" Xianjin Shulang smiled, "How much does this cost? Does Boss Heng, who is currently cooking the oil, like it? Are you willing to stoop down and become this broker?"

"If there is no profit to be made from it, why should Henglian introduce business to small workshops? The upstream drives the downstream?" Xianjin laughed sarcastically, "If he had such an ambition, Xuancheng Paper would have been out of my turn to be the market leader."

Heng Lian's ideas can basically represent the ideas of the Yunliu family.

Aunt Zhong was silent, remembering that the acquired Sichuan Kee had not put up a plaque for a long time: she had been with this young girl for many years, and even if the shopkeeper's thoughts and layout were difficult to understand, she could still get a taste of it after careful consideration.

Only this time, she still didn't understand what the shopkeeper wanted to do.

Qi Qiqi was smarter than her. She also asked Qi Qiqi for advice in private. She only remembered that Qi Qiqi narrowed his eyes and said, "Our shopkeeper's ambition has flown out of Xuancheng."

"Do you want to go to Yingtian Mansion?" Aunt Zhong asked softly.

Xianjin stopped, smiled and pulled Aunt Zhong's hair, "There are many places in the world that are farther than Yingtian Mansion."

Aunt Zhong blinked her eyes. Under the night, the young girl in her memory turned into such a tall, beautiful and resolute adult. She was like an invincible female general, fighting in the black and white world. Easily win the business war.

Victory looks effortless.

Only they, who followed day and night, knew that the oil lamp in the west wing was extinguished very late, very late, very late many nights.

"No matter where you go, I will follow you." Aunt Zhong repeated firmly, "We will all follow you."

Half an hour later, Qiqiqi returned, bringing the signed deed and a deposit of 800 taels.

Xian Jin rubbed the signature on one of the deeds in the brown paper bag and sighed softly.

On February 18, Heng Lian's post came earlier than Xian Jin expected. The post invited members of the Xuancheng Chamber of Commerce to come to the Qi Xu Hall to discuss matters.
