Confucius businesswoman: proud of the world

Chapter 165
After sending the woman away, several impatient guests came in to ask the price, but their identities did not have the bearing of the woman just now, and their attitude was a bit arrogant. The shopkeeper of a well-known silk and satin shop in Beijing wanted to take advantage of the fact that the pattern of this horse was not publicized, and take it for himself at a low price.

After being rejected by Kong Linglong, that person became furious and said fiercely that it was just a dream for the little silk and satin village to turn over.He was kicked out by Fang Yin with a cold face.

In this way, no one dared to make trouble anymore, and a few women who looked like ladies bought two batches of silk and satin indirectly, and this day was considered a rest.

However, the name of the stretch silk and satin village has spread like wildfire.

The woman who bought the satin couldn't put it down and rubbed the satin several times, only then realized that not only were the characters vividly depicted on the satin, but if the satin was unfolded carefully, it would seem to be watching What a story.

The woman was very careful, and when she found out, she quickly spread out the satin, and beckoned the little girl: "Come and see, do the characters on the satin seem to be going through something?"

The little girl hurried up and took a good look at it according to Madam's instructions, but unfortunately she was blind and couldn't see anything, only that the satin was very beautiful.

Fortunately, the woman didn't make things difficult for her. She looked at the satin ponderously and didn't speak for a long time.

When they arrived at the gate of a house, the servant girl had already moved a footstool and waited for the woman to come down.

The magnificence of this house is beyond the imagination of those who have not seen it with their own eyes.It was not easy for Kong Linglong and the others to recognize the woman's identity, but they probably couldn't guess that it was so difficult.

The maids persuaded: "Madam has been out for too long today, and the sun is so strong outside, if something bad happens, the servants will be guilty."

This woman has been sick for many years, and her body has been weak. She stayed in the house all day, and today was just a coincidence. She really wanted to go out and relax, and she ran into the newly opened Kong Linglong silk and satin shop.

This woman has a kind temper, and the maids knew it, so they dared to persuade her like this.

The woman didn't take it seriously: "Going out for a walk today makes me feel more comfortable. Don't think it's good to just be bored. It's necessary to go out and walk around."

Maids, look at me and look at you, but no one said anything.This lady is also a person who is proficient in medical theory, but unfortunately, it seems that the doctor did not heal herself, and dragged the sick body down for so many years.Fortunately, this year finally got better.

The woman immediately ordered the satin to be taken to her room. She is now interested in the patterns on the satin, and she is determined to find out what is good or bad.

Suddenly, another servant girl excitedly came to send a message: "Madam, you must have never imagined that the young master is back today!"

The woman was changing her clothes and said in surprise, "Qing'er? How long have you been here?"

The servant girl smiled and said, "Madam went out just now, the young master didn't meet you, so he said he was waiting for you in the side hall."

The woman knew that her son didn't come back often, even if he was in the capital, he just lived in his house on weekdays and rarely showed up.Immediately, I hurriedly asked the maid to change her clothes, freshen up, and then asked someone to call her over.

After receiving the letter, Su Ye strolled into her mother's boudoir, saw her mother's figure inside the curtain, and smiled slightly: "It seems that I came at a bad time, and disturbed my mother's interest in shopping."

The woman immediately turned around and changed her attire. She could no longer conceal her aura of nobility. She immediately paced out of the curtain, her eyes fell on Su Ye's face, and she looked at it carefully before laughing.

Su Ye walked up: "There is no missing arm or leg, huh? What did mother buy?"

He raised his eyebrows when he saw the large piece of cloth laid out on the table.

The lady of Suye's mansion is gentle and elegant, rare and rich, so not many people in this capital have really seen this lady.She not only went out today, but also brought back a rare piece of silk.

The woman immediately greeted with a smile: "Qing'er, come and help me see, is there a story on this painting?"

The woman could only vaguely guess a little bit of the plot, but the embroidery was so skillful that she couldn't figure out the master-slave relationship in the story.

It was rare for my mother to be interested in a piece of cloth, so Su Ye went to look at it, and saw it in a short time.He said with a smile: "This painting draws a folklore, which is very flattering."

Let the house woman like the mother be very interested.

The woman said, "Tell me quickly."

Su Ye had no choice but to look at the picture twice: "This is about a man who was sailing on a boat and met a beautiful woman. He thought he was a fairy. After returning home, he missed this woman every day, so that he became ill. Later, when he was on the verge of death, In a trance, I saw the woman again, waving to him from a distance, and the last side of the painting was the man walking towards the woman he was thinking about."

The woman's face was full of disappointment, she didn't know what she was thinking, and said for a long time: "The man probably didn't see the woman last, but was the illusion produced by the loss of life at the end?"

Suye took another look at the silk and satin: "This kind of story should always be left to people to think about. How you want to understand it all depends on your heart."

The woman may have never seen the man again, and the man died in vain.But maybe the woman is really a fairy. Seeing the man's sincerity, she was moved by him and came to pick him up to go with her.

The woman also smiled: "Ordinary silk and satin patterns are all dead things with flowers and plants. It is rare and ingenious to think of embroidery on this silk and satin."

These circulating stories are almost very attractive to women who were raised in deep boudoirs, never touched folk fireworks, and never touched the sun. I knew how much I couldn't put it down if the woman next to me saw it.

This is probably a bit like when I was studying, I hated the boring life, and I was so interested in searching for story books everywhere, because I was so attracted by those stories that I couldn’t stop...

The most important thing is that these silks and satins are very gorgeous, even if they are made into clothes and worn on the body, they still look noble without losing their status.

This thought of doing business is comprehensive, and it is almost unreasonable for a woman not to take the bait.Su Ye couldn't help but look again.

It is rare for mother and son to get together, so of course the woman would not drag Suye to look at those women's silks, now she has held his hand, pulled him to a chair and sat down, and asked gently: "Can you consider moving?" return?"

Suye couldn't help laughing: "It's not yet time, but it's mother. I always wanted you to move to my Fengyan Xiaozhu. The medicine garden there is currently recuperating my mother's body."

When mentioning the medicine garden, Suye's expression became much gentler.

Although the woman wanted her son to be by her side all the time, she also understood the reason not to force her to stay. She said, "I have lived with you for several years, but this is the family residence after all. If I don't come back, it will be easy for people to stay." Think about it."

After all, at Suye's age, there is absolutely no reason for his mother to stay with him all the time.Suye likes freedom, so she moved out by herself early on, so it's not easy for her to deprive him of his rights.

Since it is inconvenient for both parties to move around, this topic will be closed as soon as it is settled.The mother and son chatted intimately for a while, stayed overnight at Suye, and left the next morning.

-

In just two days, the business of the silk and satin shop was busier than its opening. Yu'er counted the tickets and said, "Just now there was a lady who wanted to order ten pieces of satin at once, but we didn't have so much in stock, so we had to refuse her. Not happy yet!"

Now their goods are not worried that no one will buy them, but that they are in short supply. In the private room, the shopkeeper Wu is now standing beside Kong Linglong with his head bowed, watching Kong Linglong hand over the drawn drawings to Fu Ling to make them, and he feels more and more I can't stay in this small space.

Shopkeeper Wu knew that he couldn’t get rid of it this time. In the past few months, he was passive and slowed down, eating the old money accumulated in the silk and satin village, and because the land deed still expired in 20 years, he kept pretending to be deaf and dumb. Let the silk and satin village be depressed.

Now Kong Linglong slapped him in the face with reality, which made it impossible for him to defend himself.

Kong Linglong finally looked at him: "Shopkeeper Wu, do you have any ideas?"

Asking him what he thinks is tantamount to giving him a step to take the initiative. Shopkeeper Wu also knew it, and said in a breath: "It's a villain who is useless, and the business is not good. The villain has nothing to say."

He actually admitted it directly without any excuses, which seemed to indicate that shopkeeper Wu really didn't intend to stay in the silk and satin village any longer.

Kong Linglong nodded: "Then what are you going to do?"

Shopkeeper Wu opened his mouth, but still said, "The villain should be dealt with according to his youth."

With such a thing, it is meaningless to keep him as the shopkeeper. According to the rules of the Kong family, he will indeed be expelled.

Kong Linglong looked at him and said, "I understand your thoughts. You have seen what happened in the silk and satin village and other shops of the Kong family in the capital. You also know in your heart that the Kong family must have offended someone. After all these years, you You must have a lot of savings in silk and satin village. Even if you don’t want to be the shopkeeper, you don’t have to worry about life. More importantly, with your qualifications, it is not difficult to jump to other shops. Leaving Kong’s house, for you, On the contrary, it is a good thing.”

At least you can avoid secret and strange targeting, and keep yourself away from any possible troubles.

Shopkeeper Wu knew that these words were kept in his heart and would not say them out loud. Seeing that Kong Linglong understood so well, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Thanks to the support of the Kong family for so many years, I, Wu Shouyi, have no regrets for this kindness." memorable."

Always have to talk about the scene, if the girl in front of him doesn't want to make him happy, she deliberately doesn't let him go, although he won't be afraid, at most he will continue to be the shopkeeper, and if he doesn't know anything, he will always drag the silk and satin shop to death.However, it is still a bit troublesome.

Kong Linglong's eyes were dark, she nodded and said: "Okay, a twisted melon is not sweet, my Kong family has always advocated freedom to come and go. Since shopkeeper Wu's ambition is not here, I will never force it. Shopkeeper Wu can leave today. "

Shopkeeper Wu himself was a little surprised that it went so smoothly. He looked at Kong Linglong, what do you mean by leaving today?
Soon he understood, Yu'er brought over a plate of things with a blank face, with pen and ink on it, and a contract.

Kong Linglong's voice was light: "I've already drawn up the contract termination agreement, just take a look and press your fingerprint, you will have nothing to do with my Kong family anymore."

I don't know why, but when I heard that it doesn't matter anymore, shopkeeper Wu felt strange.

But with the temptation in front of him, he quickly glanced at the contract termination letter. There was no problem, and they were all common terms.After thinking for a while, he stretched out his finger and dipped it in the red mud, and pressed his fingerprint on the signature without hesitation.

Kong Linglong ordered Yu'er to pick up the contract termination letter, and said to Shopkeeper Wu, "You can go."

Shopkeeper Wu coughed dryly, raised his hand in a feigned manner, and said, "Thank you, Young Master, for your fulfillment."

A trace of indifference flashed across Kong Linglong's face, he hadn't realized that he was no longer qualified to ask her to be the head of the household.

Shopkeeper Wu turned around and left the silk and satin shop. The outside staff were all newly recruited in the past two days, and no one expressed dissatisfaction with Shopkeeper Wu.

This can be said to be unprecedented in the Confucius family shop.

Only Yu'er spat in a low voice: "White-eyed wolf."

Bai has taken advantage of the Kong family for so many years, and will withdraw without hesitation whenever there is trouble. Sure enough, there are too many wolves in the world who are not familiar with it.

Fu Ling asked a lot: "Miss, are you looking for a new shopkeeper?"

A country cannot live without a king, and a store without a shopkeeper seems a bit nondescript.

However, Kong Linglong knew that finding a reliable shopkeeper was much more difficult than finding a reliable buddy. This shopkeeper Wu had almost ruined the reputation of the silk and satin factory. Clean up one by one.

She thought for a while, and said, "Let's talk to Dr. Xu about this matter first, and ask him to recommend some reliable candidates."

Now there are wolves in the front and tigers in the back, and I would rather not have a shopkeeper, Kong Linglong can't take the risk of using the next shopkeeper Wu.So she thought of asking Dr. Xu to recommend him. Using his contacts in the capital, she should get to know a few good shopkeeper candidates.

At this time, there was a laughing voice from the outside: "You want a reliable candidate, find me, why do you need Dr. Xu?"

Yu'er quickly exchanged a look with Fu Ling, and when the curtain was lifted, a slender figure had already walked over.Seeing Su Ye, the few people seemed to be no longer surprised, Fu Ling lowered her meaningful eyes.

Yu'er smiled at Su Ye: "Young Master Su Ye, I'm going to pour you tea right now."

Su Ye looked at her: "Thank you, Yu'er."

It's not that Su Ye didn't feel it, he always felt that the little girl Yu'er's attitude towards him was a bit subtle at this reunion, and he couldn't explain why.

Yu'er dragged Fu Ling out of the private room, and carefully closed the door, preparing to make the most time-consuming tea.

Su Ye's eyes fell on Kong Linglong, the girl's face was as calm as possible, but there was still a little paleness from when he left last time.

It is said that Baigang Steel was defeated by Raozhirou, and Suye's state at this time was exactly like this.

As long as it can make Kong Linglong happy, he is willing to be her big shopkeeper himself.

Kong Linglong finally didn't cold him anymore, perhaps because she knew that no matter how much distance they kept between them, it still seemed deliberate, so she moved her lips, trying to be as natural as possible: "I'm looking for the shopkeeper, you also have connections?"

It seems that they are not from the same class. It is hard for Kong Linglong to imagine that Suye will know the shopkeeper.

Su Ye was confident, and smiled: "Don't worry, the one I introduced to you is definitely the most reliable one in the entire capital." Kong Linglong thought about it, and asked slowly: "Who the hell is it?"

Suye's fan was on the tip of her nose, her smile was shallow, but her eyes seemed to be cunning: "If you agree, I will call someone to come tomorrow. Of course, you can test him first according to the rules of choosing shopkeepers in your Kong family." , to see if he is qualified."

If Suye could say such a thing, then he must have confidence in this person.Kong Linglong believed that she had been with him under the same roof for half a year, and Kong Linglong would not take too much effort to understand his emotional expression.

It is undeniable that there is a little bit of relief in my heart.She held up her teacup and covered her face.Now is an extraordinary period, and she convinced herself that the Kong family is the most important thing.

On Suye's side, because of Kong Linglong's looseness, she showed a gentle smile.

-

The next day, Kong Linglong asked Yu'er and Fuling to make preparations and opened the shop half an hour earlier.

Suye said in advance that the friend he introduced was more serious in his work, so he came here early to let Kong Linglong see him, and if it was settled, he would be able to welcome guests as the shopkeeper when the door officially opened.

Kong Linglong is not a boss who can put on airs, especially when the other party is serious, she will not let her side go wrong.

So not long after the store opened, I heard the sound of a carriage, and a man with a square face came down.

Kong Linglong guessed that this was it, and immediately asked people to come in. Yu'er and Fuling did not neglect, and immediately looked at the people who came there.

The man's demeanor was calm, he greeted Kong Linglong first, and said straight to the point: "I'm Zhuge Qingyun, six out of fifty, I've met Miss Kong."

The age and demeanor are just right for the shopkeeper. Kong Linglong thought that the other party was introduced by Su Ye, and she should have a good background, so she asked a few more questions: "Mr. Zhuge, what did you manage before?"

Zhuge Qingyun didn't want to hide anything, he opened his mouth and said: "I have managed a lot, and cloth, granary and salt are most often handled."

Kong Linglong was a little surprised. The granary and salt are the most important things. If you have managed these, you needn't speak of your ability.

"I don't know where Mr. Zhuge works?"

Zhuge Qingyun said: "I used to manage the treasury for His Majesty in the palace."

Kong Linglong: "..."

Yu'er was shocked.
