Chapter 1317: They Treat Us as Their Own
"But don't tell anyone about this yet. We'll talk about it when the time comes!"
Zhao Shu was still a little confused, but that didn't stop him from agreeing immediately.
Uncle Qing quickly understood: This is an important matter concerning people's livelihood! Naturally, he couldn't speak carelessly. At this time, Lord Shao and Madam Shao told their master and servant that they were treating them as their own people and that they could trust them!
After dinner, when they left the Shao family and went back, Uncle Qing realized that his son did not understand the pros and cons of this matter, so he quickly explained it in detail. Only then did Zhao Shu come to his senses.
I couldn't help but admire him: "If this thing is accomplished, Lord Shao and Madam Shao will be remembered for generations to come!"
Uncle Qing smiled and said, "Of course, but this matter is too big, they may not be able to bear it. If my guess is correct, the credit for this matter will definitely fall to the East Palace, so Madam Shao told us not to tell anyone now."
That's true, Zhao Shu nodded in understanding.
Mr. Shao and Mrs. Shao are not the kind of people who seek fame and reputation, nor are they foolish people who like to show off. They would never take such credit for themselves.
But they don't want this credit, so it is conceivable that it must be given to the prince.
Only the prince can hold on.
"But if that's the case, why tell us now?"
Zhao Shu was confused and Uncle Qing looked at him speechlessly.
Fortunately, he was not stupid. He figured it out with an "Ah!" and said happily, "Uncle Qing, does this mean that Lord and Madam Shao treat us as their own people?"
Uncle Qing smiled and nodded.
"This is great!" Zhao Shu couldn't help rubbing his hands, becoming more and more happy.
Uncle Qing smiled secretly and shook his head, and couldn't help but remind him: "Sir, even so, some things still need to be done slowly!"
Zhao Shu smiled a little embarrassedly and nodded awkwardly: "Don't worry, Uncle Qing, I know."
Zhao Shu was obviously happy to watch the excitement at the Zhao family, so he did not stay in the capital for long. He had two meals with Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan and stayed for five days before heading south again with great interest.
In addition to watching the show, the perfume workshop was at a critical juncture of getting back on track, so he naturally had to keep a closer eye on it.
There are only more than fifty bottles sold, which means more than 50,000 taels of silver.
The cost of the entire perfume workshop is now recovered.
The next batch can produce at least one hundred bottles, all the invested costs will be recovered and profits will be generated.
The split between him and Qiao Xuan is 4:6, 6 for him and 4 for Qiao Xuan, which is a very generous reward.
This kind of business is simply addictive!
Qiao Xuan originally planned to take a trip to the south of the Yangtze River to see how the harvest from her more than 20,000 acres of fertile land was doing, and to visit the flower fields in Hangzhou and use her wood-related abilities to help the flowers and trees grow stronger, so that they can safely and smoothly survive the winter and grow faster and better next year.
Let's also visit the 100,000 mu mulberry garden.
Unexpectedly, half a month later, the little prince Arnold of Qingdi would lead a team of envoys to meet the Emperor of Qin. The Crown Prince and the Third Prince were ordered to be responsible for the reception.
As the Crown Prince's confidant, Shao Yunduan naturally had to stay by the Crown Prince's side to help.
He originally planned to ask the prince to assign him some errands so that he and Qiao Xuan could go south together again, but he had to give up.
Although Qiao Xuan was not afraid of what others said, she still had the reputation of being a jealous woman. It would be bad for her to leave Shao Yunduan behind and go south alone. That would make things even more confusing.
