I'm in the Red Mansion

Chapter 145: I wrote until late at night and was too lazy to name it
Hearing Aunt Mei's question, Jia Cong smiled and told her about Prime Minister Kou taking him as his apprentice.

After hearing this, Aunt Mei couldn't help but cry for joy.

She hurriedly asked, "Brother Cong, is everything you said true? Did Prime Minister Kou really accept you as his disciple?"

Jia Cong smiled and said, "Mother, how could I dare to lie to you? This is of course true."

"Ten days later, Prime Minister Kou will invite all his friends, and I will have to perform the apprenticeship ceremony in public!"

After hearing this, Aunt Mei couldn't help but said happily: "Okay, okay! Mother will prepare the gifts tomorrow!"

"If you can take Kou Xiang as your master, you will have someone to rely on in the future and be able to settle down. Even if your mother..."

Jia Cong couldn't help but say, "Mom, stop, stop! You're going to live a hundred years, let's not say such unlucky words."

Jia Cong discovered that when Aunt Mei got excited, she couldn't help but say that even if she died, she would be able to rest in peace in the underworld.

After being interrupted by Jia Cong, Aunt Mei smiled and said, "Okay, okay, mother won't tell me, isn't it okay if I don't tell you?"

Just at this moment, Feng Ziying came to the door.

After Feng Ziying paid his respects to Aunt Mei, he and Jia Cong went to the study.

After arriving at the study, Feng Ziying brought new products.

This time, Jiangzhu not only launched new products, but also changed its packaging.

The original very tacky packaging has now been replaced with a more unique shape and more exquisite patterns - well, before that, there was no pattern at all.

After this major upgrade, the rouge and powder suddenly became more high-end and classy.

During this period of time, Jia Cong has never asked about the rouge and powder business.

Anyway, Jia Cong holds the lifeline of high-concentration alcohol in his hands.

Based on the amount of alcohol consumed each month, Jia Cong can roughly infer the monthly production.

Therefore, the possibility of them falsifying the accounts is basically eliminated.

It was not until Feng Ziying took out the new packaging in front of him that Jia Cong remembered this matter.

Jia Cong couldn't help but ask: "Are you preparing to launch new products now?"

Hearing this question, Feng Ziying couldn't help but said angrily: "Junior brother, how dare you ask such a question?"

"Junior brother, you are also a major shareholder, right? You hold 40% of the shares just like me."

"You also know that of the 40% of my shares, I don't get much at all."

"But from the beginning to now, have you ever cared about this business?"

After hearing what Feng Ziying said, Jia Cong felt a little embarrassed.

He rubbed his hands and said, "Hey, big brother, those who are capable should do more work! Since you can manage it well by yourself, why do you need me to give you instructions?"

These words made Feng Ziying so angry that he almost laughed out loud at Jia Cong's indignation.

Feng Ziying took a deep breath and said, "That's right, our production has stabilized now."

"As for the market, we have the largest market share for now."

"But the other few companies should not be underestimated. Although they are reluctant to take action against us openly, they are constantly making small moves in secret."

"In that case, I will simply prepare to launch our first trump card and directly replace the new packaging. Let's see how they can fight us!"

Hearing this, Jia Cong couldn't help but laugh and said, "Big Brother, don't focus all your attention on them."

"We still need to look further ahead, for example, how to expand our business to neighboring countries or even overseas."

"In addition, the eight merchants in our Chamber of Commerce may also undergo changes in the short term."

"Therefore, our market is bound to expand in the future."

"Therefore, senior brother, you'd better prepare to expand production as soon as possible." The day when Prince Yizhong will be killed must be not far away.

Because if it weren't for his help, Qin Keqing would have been captured by Jia Zhen.

Less than a year after Qin Keqing was seduced by Jia Zhen, someone caught them in the act, and Qin Keqing eventually died of illness.

Prince Yoshitada must have been killed before this.

Didn’t Feng Ziying dislike me for not caring about business at all?
Then just give him a little information.

After hearing what Jia Cong said, Feng Ziying couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Junior brother, which family will have an accident? What kind of accident will happen? Why didn't I hear any news?"

Jia Cong smiled and said, "Big Brother, I am just guessing, it may not be accurate."

"However, even the merchants in the Chamber of Commerce have not changed much. They just sell these rouge and powder to neighboring countries and even overseas."

"We will definitely need to increase production, so we need to prepare in advance."

Hearing this, Feng Ziying nodded suspiciously, always feeling that his junior brother was hiding something from him.

This time, Feng Ziying brought Jia Cong a total of fifty sets of new products.

In Jia Cong's household, only a portion was given to Aunt Mei and a few of the maids in his room.

As for the rest, Jia Cong asked Jia Huan to send them to Rongguo Mansion and divide them among his sisters.

These new products are also due to their contributions. Now that we are launching new products, we naturally have to send some to them.

When Jia Huan heard that he was asked to pass something again, he couldn't help but get excited.

Because these things are not delivered for free. Every time someone asks him to deliver something, he will at least give him one or two taels of silver.

Even the sisters in Rongguo Mansion would give him some copper coins when they were in a good mood.

Although it's a bit stingy, it's still money, right?
Over the past few months, Jia Huan has saved up more than ten taels of silver for his own use.

Even so, it didn't stop him from eating and drinking outside.

Therefore, when he heard that Jia Cong wanted him to deliver something inside again, Jia Huan immediately ran over happily.

But when Jia Huan saw that there were so many things, he was suddenly troubled.

"Brother Cong, it's not that I don't want to help you, but this is too much. How can you carry it?"

"Once someone finds out and reports it to the master, I will be in big trouble. Even my mother won't be able to protect me."

Hearing this, Jia Cong was too lazy to talk nonsense and directly took out two taels of silver and threw it to Jia Huan.

Jia Huan's expression suddenly changed, and he laughed, "But since we are helping Third Brother Cong, there must be a way!"

"I'll just make a few more trips, and I'll make sure no one finds out! Brother Cong San, just rest assured that I'll do the work!"

Next, Jia Huan took the things and returned to Rongguo Mansion.

In fact, it's such a small matter, why would it be so troublesome to make several extra trips?
Jia Huan simply called his servant to help him carry it, and then he walked in with a swagger.

Then, Jia Huan distributed these things to his sisters.

And he received a reward from them.

Jia Huan was very happy and delighted.

And Lin Daiyu and the others, after receiving gifts from Jia Cong.

When I opened it, I found that it was rouge and powder in a new package.

And they were actually involved in designing all of these packages.

At that moment, they suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction and pride in their hearts.
