Chapter 474: Surprise? Don’t be shocked!
At this moment, a carriage slowly stopped at the gate of Luo Mansion.
Old Master Feng came out of the carriage and frowned when he saw this scene.
Four strange boys, a great-granddaughter, and the granddaughter-in-law who has been guarding the gate, what happened?
Luo Fu saw Old Master Feng, bowed respectfully, and called out, "Grandpa."
Old Master Feng nodded slightly: "Girl, what are you doing?"
Luo Fu immediately lowered her head, looking embarrassed.
Qian Yingfan didn't have so many concerns, after all, he was taking money from others to help them get rid of disasters.
He pointed at Liu Lang and said, "Old man, this man has bad intentions and is deceiving and seducing Miss Luo. As her friends, we should naturally stand up for her. Don't you agree?"
Old Master Feng was stunned and speechless. Old Master Feng glanced at his granddaughter-in-law who seemed to be watching a show.
You know what, this idea really seems like something she could come up with.
At this time, Zhu Mingqing had to stand up.
She coughed lightly, and Luo Fu and the others realized that she had been right behind them the entire time. The moment she thought about her mother seeing what had just happened, Luo Fu wished there was a crack in the ground in front of her to crawl into.
Zhu Mingqing invited Old Master Feng into the house. At the same time, Luo Fu followed him listlessly, and Qian Yingfan and the other two also hurried into the house.
Liu Lang was left alone, and was watched by others. His face turned red, but he was unwilling to give up.
He had finally found this stupid rich girl with a lot of trouble. His father praised him highly for this and his monthly salary increased several times.
Liu Lang was unwilling to give up, so he naturally started visiting her every day.
But every time, before he could even meet Miss Luo, Qian Yingfan and the other two would send him away one after another.
Since direct approach didn't work, he came up with a crooked idea and tried to bribe the servant of Luo's mansion to pass a message to Luo Fu. However, he was a servant from a poor family and he couldn't be persuaded no matter what.
Liu Lang got very angry about this.
Old Master Feng, who had often come to discuss the black hair pill business with Zhu Mingqing in recent days, was watching all the excitement.
But getting back to the topic, Luo Fu’s marriage cannot be delayed.
Zhu Mingqing was helpless about this: "Even her father can't do anything about it. Do you think we can force her to marry?"
Old Master Feng frowned: "Is that girl so difficult to manage?"
Zhu Mingqing was at a loss for words: "It's not that it's hard to manage, it's that I fall in love with every person I meet. If we really get married and something happens, I won't be able to explain it to them."
Old Master Feng opened his mouth in surprise. He fell in love with every girl he met. This had never happened in the Luo and Feng families.
Wait, that's not right.
This little girl seemed to be adopted by his grandson.
Maybe it was because she knew her true identity, Luo Fu was indeed well-behaved for a while, but afterwards she seemed to be ready to give up.
Old Master Feng pursed his lips: "There are still people you can't deal with, it's rare!"
Zhu Mingqing just took it as praise.
"Let's talk business first. Can the Black Hair Pills be mass-produced now?" This is what Old Master Feng cares about most.
These days, he was very envious of Old Man Luo's black hair.
There are indeed many herbs in Zhu Mingqing's immortal palace, and the seeds have been planted outside, but it will take some time before they are fully grown.
And I don’t know how effective these herbs outside are.
Zhu Mingqing told all these stories, but of course he concealed the matter of the herbs from the Immortal Mansion. He only said that they were high-quality herbs that were collected and were very rare.
Old Master Feng didn't care at all: "Even if the effect is greatly reduced, it's just a matter of time before we can start mass production. No, I have to go back now and prepare..."
"No rush!" Zhu Mingqing smiled slightly as he spoke about the most important issue: "Let's talk about the price first."
Old Master Feng was naturally not stingy and directly gave the other party a satisfactory price. After the two of them had discussed it, Zhu Mingqing also generously released a lot of immortal herbs and explained:
"Grandfather, the black hair pills made from these herbs must be limited in quantity!"
Of course Old Master Feng understood, and he immediately ordered someone to send the herbs back to the house he had recently purchased.
Feng Shao didn't expect this either. He thought he was just following his grandfather to Guancheng to visit relatives, but he didn't expect that he could expand his business.
If this black hair pill develops well, the revenue will probably make those clansmen in Yangzhou jealous.
But his grandfather gave it to him.
Feng Shao was full of confidence and was determined to accomplish something great, so that his clansmen would not be pessimistic about his family inheriting the family business.
Time passed by little by little in the busyness, and the houses for tens of thousands of people who were resettled outside the city were basically completed.
Now that the people have a place to live, they naturally have to consider the issue of food and drink.
The Ming family's factory once again mentioned the opportunity for expansion. It can be said that 50% of the people in Guancheng now work in the Ming family's factories, so the influence is naturally self-evident.
However, at the same time, Magistrate Wang also specifically asked for someone from the Agricultural Department and began to plan the forest city that Madam Zhu mentioned.
Zhu Mingqing of course strongly agreed with this and directly said that she could provide trees, and for free.
After all, the Immortal Palace could not be what it is today without these people, so she naturally has to give back.
This unintentional act also brought Zhu Mingqing greater rewards in the future.
The matter was handed over to Luo Xiao, and Zhu Mingqing was free for a while, and then he began to focus on the fifth time of repairing the favorability.
After several months of travel by the Youzhou caravan, white sugar has quickly opened up the market in neighboring states. At the same time, Wen Baolu is also in charge of the Ming family caravan and knows what his wife wants to do most.
So, using the connections that Bai Tang had, he also started doing business with medicinal herb merchants from all over the place.
The Ming family's medicinal herbs are of good quality and have thick roots, and are all rare and excellent products.
In particular, Zhu Mingqing also thought of medicinal herbs that most people can eat - yam, wolfberry, lily, ginger, gorgon fruit...
Made into food, there is always one that suits you!
The current favorability has already increased by 100,000 in just three months!
Adding the previous savings, it is nearly 700,000.
Zhu Mingqing was very satisfied and directly told Wen Baolu that he could also form his own caravan, regardless of region or time, as long as there were people, they could cooperate.
The Ming family's business expanded rapidly, and Zhu Mingqing was sometimes too busy to handle everything, so he would hand over most of the things to Luo Xiao.
Luo Xiao, who had taken over Huaxianglou from Wen Baolu, knew that other factories were making considerable profits, but this was the first time he saw the account books.
Immediately it was like a shot of chicken blood.
He also issued a military order: "He will definitely spread the Ming family's business throughout the entire Southern Xia Kingdom within a year!"
In response, Zhu Mingqing raised his thumbs and said, "If you can really do it, I will agree to one of your requests."
Hearing this, Luo Xiao's face flushed with excitement: "Anything is possible?"
"no problem!"
Luo Xiao walked out of his mother's yard excitedly and ran into Qiao Tianqing again.
After half a year of getting along, although the two still have daily quarrels, they are not as confrontational as before.
"Hey, wait a minute!" Qiao Tianqing grabbed him and said, "I heard that those three said they wanted to give your sister a surprise tonight. Do you want to go?"
Luo Xiao: ???
Don't be scared, right?
