Eldest daughter

Chapter 223 Merchant Pursuit of Profit
Wang Yuan'er didn't sleep all night, and when she woke up the next day, her eyes were black and blue, but Wang Chun'er was taken aback, and quickly wrapped her eyes with the tea leaves from the previous night, so that she could see people better.

"Big sister, why can't I sleep well, but is my heart on fire? Would you like me to cook some Ophiopogon wick flower water for you to drink?" Wang Chun'er was very worried.

Wang Yuan'er yawned, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I've been feeling a little dry these past two days, so it's okay."

It was because she thought about Cui Yuan's words for a whole night, but she couldn't figure out why.

Wang Chun'er was full of doubts, but she didn't ask any further questions, she just said, "Then why don't you just go back to sleep?"

"No, I still have to go to the workshop." Wang Yuan'er said with a smile.

Wang Chun'er groaned, but after thinking about it, she still didn't think it would work, so she took the silver from the drawer and carried Baolai to butcher Zhang to buy a big bone, then put in prunella vulgaris, chrysanthemums, and mulberry leaves, and made a soup and tea.

Wang Yuan'er was so dazed that she didn't have much energy, and walked around the workshop, but Manager Guan saw that she didn't have any energy at all, so he drove her back to catch up on sleep.

After drinking a large cup of soup and tea made by Wang Chun'er, Wang Yuan'er lay on the bed again, with his eyes closed, but what Cui Yuan said to her last evening was still in his mind.

The position of wife!

Wang Yuan'er turned over impatiently, and cursed: "What the hell does he mean, is it funny?"

After thinking about it, he dug out the gift he received yesterday from the cabinet, opened it, and took a closer look at the hairpin.

A white jade hairpin with only a single rose carved on it, very simple.

Wang Yuaner didn't know much, but he also knew that the white jade hairpin in front of him was of high quality, so it must be the suet white jade, right?
What matters is not the material of the hairpin, but its meaning.

Tell love with a hairpin!

Wang Yuan'er's face became hot, and she lay down, covering her head with the quilt.

After a while, a long sigh came from under the quilt.

Pulling back the quilt, Wang Yuaner held the hairpin in his hand and sighed.

No matter what, how could he and she, people of the same sky and the same place, walk on the same path?
In the eyes of a wealthy family, with her status, not to mention being a regular wife, even a concubine is wishful thinking. Looking at Wang Min'er's situation, isn't she vigilant enough?

So such a hairpin, is that something she can wear?

Wang Yuan'er sighed faintly and closed his eyes.

In the dream, it was Cui Yuan with smiling fox eyes, looking at her without blinking, asking her what she was afraid of?
What are you afraid of? I'm afraid that a heart will be wrongly paid, and I'm afraid that I won't get well.

……

Wang Yuan'er wanted to avoid Cui Yuan because she was afraid that he would come to her and say something irrelevant to her, but after hiding for a few days, Cui Yuan seemed to have disappeared and never appeared again.

It was one thing to avoid him, but Wang Yuaner felt a little lost when he really showed up.

Worrying about gains and losses for a few days, Wang Yuan'er became very irritable and lost weight.

Wang Chun'er and the others saw it, thought something was wrong, wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, so they had to carefully watch Wang Yuan'er's face, for fear of offending her.

Wang Yuan'er saw it clearly, but she also despised herself very much in her heart, and even vented her anger on her younger siblings, that's all she wanted.

It's amazing. I'll make it clear when I see him someday.

Thinking of this, Wang Yuaner also relaxed a little, and at this time, she saw Song San again.

"We haven't seen each other for a while, how come it's cleared up?" Song San still had that gentle and dignified appearance.

People who saw her these days said so, Wang Yuan'er forced a smile, and said, "I gained a little weight a while ago, but now I just lost some weight."

She didn't want to say more, and Song San didn't ask any more questions, so he talked to her about business matters.

"We have been planning a competition these days. Our King Jin's fermented bean curd finally defeated the fermented bean curd produced by Jinan Jiyutang, and won the royal tribute." Song San was in a good mood, and said: "From then on, our King Jin is The first tofu curd shop!"

Wang Yuan'er was in a good mood after hearing this: "Really?"

Two months earlier, Jiyutang, a soy sauce garden with the same name as Jin Kee, also developed fermented bean curd in Jinan. The powerful family has also seized a lot of their Jinwang market.

If there is a market, there will be competition. Wang Yuaner knows this, and he has worried about it, but worrying is useless. It is better to study and improve carefully, and make continuous progress while walking, to be invincible land.

Therefore, she and the masters in the workshop continued to study how to make the products more outstanding, purer and taste better.

Right now, King Jin's fermented bean curd wins as a tribute, isn't it the best answer to their efforts?
Song San nodded with a smile, and looked at her sideways again: "Speaking of which, is it thanks to you?"

"Eh?" Wang Yuan'er looked suspicious.

Song Sandao: "I don't know, so you have seen the emperor."

"Huh?" Wang Yuan'er stared wide-eyed.

What does this say?

"Besides, Cui Yuan also helped our King Jin to speak, that's why he won this piece so quickly. Our business will expand in the future."

Hearing the name Cui Yuan, Wang Yuaner's heart skipped a beat, and asked nonchalantly, "Cui Yuan, did Master Cui speak for us?"

"You don't know?" Song San looked at her, suddenly remembered something, and said, "I happened to meet him on the road when I came to Changle Town, and he asked me to tell you to go to Quanzhou. But I didn't know, When did you get so close? You are so close that you need someone to help deliver the news!"

Song San had a meaningful expression on his face.

Wang Yuaner blushed and coughed twice.

It turned out that he went to Quanzhou, no wonder I haven't seen him these days, so it's good to avoid it for a while, so as to save the embarrassment of seeing him.

"You're talking so much that I'm in a fog. Why did you meet the emperor and help us speak?" Wang Yuan'er changed the subject.

"You really don't know?" Song San was very strange, and said: "It was also Cui Yuan who reminded the emperor that they had met you when they passed by Changle Town, and the emperor seemed to remember it."

Wang Yuaner was taken aback, and suddenly remembered the King Jing he saw when he first bought tea eggs, could it be that time?
She recalled in detail, passing King Jing's face, recalling Cui Yuan, the boy with a pair of peach blossom eyes, and the current Cui Yuan gradually overlapped.

That's right, it's him, they met back then?
Wang Yuan'er suddenly realized, and remembered that Cui Yuan asked her back then, did she really not remember him?
Is that so, as early as those years, have they met?
For some reason, Wang Yuan'er felt a little strange in her heart, and was more emotional.

It turns out that the fate of people has been set early in the morning!

Boo!
Suddenly there was a snap of fingers in front of her ears, Wang Yuaner came back to her senses, Song San who was sitting across from her squinted at her: "What are you thinking, so engrossed?"

"No, I just think fate is so wonderful." Wang Yuan'er smiled faintly.

Song San raised his eyebrows: "Then let's talk about it now, when did you and Cui Yuan become so close?"

It seems that many interesting things happened during his absence in Changle Town.

Wang Yuan'er blushed slightly, and said, "It's not as good as what you said, that is, some bad things happened to our family, and he helped a few of them."

Song San had also heard about the matter of the Wang family from Guan Fang's letter, but it was actually not a big deal, since he was a business ally in cooperation, it was not impossible to get someone out of prison.

But before he could make a move, the matter was settled, and now it seems that Cui Yuan made the move.

Song San looked at Wang Yuan'er. She looked unsatisfied and calm, and couldn't help raising her eyebrows.

She is obviously just an ordinary farmer girl with no foundation, but her fortune is better than anyone else, not to mention that she has a business relationship with the Song family, and now she has a relationship with the second master of the Cui family, the second master Cui, Cui Yuan, Who is that, but the celebrity around the emperor!

Is it because of her luck, or something else?
Song San picked up the teacup, seemingly unintentionally said: "Cui Yuan is capable, this is indeed a small favor. He is also a celebrity around the emperor, and has a bright future in the future. You have found a treasure."

Wang Yuan'er was immersed in her own thoughts, and she didn't hear what he said at all: "Huh? What did you say?"

Song San suddenly laughed, and said: "You are smart, but sometimes you are so stupid, how can I say hello?"

It seemed that I was thinking too much, no matter how scheming I was, how could I still get to the celebrity next to the emperor?

Song San thought of Cui Yuan's instructions, and couldn't help shaking his head. If it was what he thought, the two of them would probably have a hard time, and their family background alone would be an insurmountable gap.

"The merchant ships of our caravan are already on their way back. If all goes well, they will be able to arrive at the port in mid-June." Song San changed the topic and talked about the second news.

Wang Yuan'er also put the mess out of his mind, and said: "Well, I just wanted to tell you that I rented a shop in Beijing and planned to sell this imported product, and so did my second uncle. You see, when the time comes, I can Do you batch the goods from the ship?"

"Oh?" Song San raised his eyebrows: "Can you tell me about the regulations?"

Wang Yuan'er explained his plans one by one, and finally said: "Do you think it is feasible?"

"I said earlier that you have a good brain, but now I know that you are very quick to see opportunities." Song San laughed, and said: "The goods brought back from there are meant to be sold, since you have made an order, then I will give you some goods."

Wang Yuaner was overjoyed: "Then what is the price?"

"Your own merchant ship, whatever profit you want, just use the cost price." Song Sanyi waved his hand and said, "It's just that our caravan is taking a step ahead of this trip so that we can sell something new. In the future, the merchant ship from the imperial court will come back. , it’s no surprise that this imported product is used to it, and the market profit may also decrease, aren’t you afraid?”

"Where there are competitors, there is competition. Small profits but quick turnover. If I can beat other businesses in terms of profit costs, then I will not be afraid!" Wang Yuaner pointed out.

As long as the merchant ship comes back and sells them at a low price and does not charge a high price, it will be better than anything else. I am afraid that if the price is too high, it will really be unbearable!

Song San was taken aback, laughed out loud, and said, "I finally understand where all your smartness has been spent, I'm afraid it's all spent on how to make money."

Wang Yuan'er didn't feel blushing at all, but said: "It's human nature for a businessman to pursue profit."

Song San clapped his hands and raised his thumb. Since he is a businessman, why not pursue profit?
