Chapter 71 Business Studies

The next morning, Jiang's mother came to Shu Tong's courtyard.

"Mom." Seeing Jiang's mother, Jiang Shu stood up to greet her.

Jiang's mother took her hand and asked, "Did you get along well with the sisters at home yesterday?"

Since Jiang Shu got married, she rarely went back to the Jiang family and didn't see the Jiang sisters much, and the relationship was distant and cold.

But now that Jiang Shu has returned home, she will see them often in the future, and she has to get used to it.

Jiang Shu shook her head and said, "Not so good, I'll just avoid seeing them if I can."

"What's wrong? Did they say something to annoy you?" Jiang's mother asked.

Jiang Shu pursed her lips and told Jiang's mother about Jiang Yun's introduction to her.

Jiang's mother was angry after hearing this: "She's dreaming!"

"You're angry about this and don't want to see them again"

Jiang Shu said: "Not entirely, mainly because I have no interest in what they talk about and we can't get along."

Jiang's mother sighed: "Mother knows that you have a broad vision. If you don't want to get along with them, mother won't force you. It's not easy to live again. Do whatever you want in the future." "

Really?" Jiang Shu's eyes were full of hope.

Jiang's mother's eyelids twitched when she saw it: "What do you want to do?"

Jiang Shu's almond eyes were bright, and he said word by word: "I want to learn business from my father."

"This...you have to ask your father." Jiang's mother couldn't make the decision.

Although Jiang's mother was more open-minded and transparent than ordinary mothers, she was a woman in the inner house after all, and she couldn't quite understand Jiang Shu's thoughts.

In Jiang's mother's view, a woman can find a good man, settle down in the back house and have no worries about food and clothing, which is the best life, just like her.

But obviously, Jiang Shu didn't think so.

"Did Dad go out? I'll go ask him now." Jiang Shu couldn't wait.

Jiang's mother said, "He drank a lot of wine yesterday and just got up now."

Jiang Shu's eyes lit up when he heard that, and he took Jiang's mother to find Jiang's father.

Jiang's father had just finished washing and was preparing for breakfast. When Jiang Shu saw him, he immediately went forward to serve porridge to Jiang's father.

"It's good to have a daughter at home." Jiang's father sighed with tears in his eyes.

Looking at Jiang Shu serving porridge and dishes, Jiang's father felt warm in his heart. It seemed that these six years were just a dream, and Jiang Shu was still the filial and obedient daughter who surrounded them back then.

Jiang's mother didn't say anything, and silently watched Jiang's father jump into Jiang Shu's pit.

"Dad, eat quickly, it will be cold soon." Jiang Shu put the porridge that was blown to the right temperature in front of Jiang's father.

Jiang's father took it and ate it happily.

After waiting patiently for Jiang's father to finish his meal, Jiang Shu said, "Dad, I have something to discuss with you."

"What is it?" Jiang's father didn't care.

Jiang Shu said solemnly, "I want to learn business from you."

"What?" Jiang's father thought he had heard it wrong, and looked at Jiang Shu and Jiang's mother in surprise.

"I want to learn business from you." Jiang Shu repeated.

Jiang's father frowned, "Girls can't show up in public, why should they learn business?"

Business is not just about giving instructions in the backyard, you have to go out often to inspect the shop, consider, and observe current affairs.

"I can dress up as a man, so it's convenient to go out." Jiang Shu had already made plans.

Father Jiang's eyes widened, and he looked at Mother Jiang and said, "Is she possessed or has a fever? Hurry up and find a doctor."

Mother Jiang coughed and said, "Shu'er is fine, she just wants to learn how to do business."

"Why would your daughter do business? Isn't it good to just stay at home and enjoy a good life?" Father Jiang was puzzled. Doing

business is not a fun thing. Not only do you have to deal with people from all walks of life, but you also have to travel far away to do business and live in the open air, full of dangers. It is not suitable for a daughter like Jiang Shu.

"The Jiang family has many businesses, and my younger brother is young. It's too hard for Dad to run the business alone. I want to share some of the burden for Dad." Jiang Shu said sincerely.

Father Jiang was touched and sighed, "Doing business is not as easy as you think."

Jiang Shu understood Father Jiang's thoughts, so he suggested, "I will learn from you for three months. If I don't have the ability to do business after three months, I will stay at home honestly."

"It seems that you are determined. Aren't you afraid that you will ruin your reputation by showing up in public and no one will dare to marry you in the future?" Father Jiang was worried.

Jiang Shu said seriously, "If that's the case, then such a man is not worthy of me marrying."

Six years is enough time for Jiang Shu to understand that being gentle and obedient cannot win respect and sympathy. It is better to be yourself.

Father Jiang was silent for a long time, and felt that what Jiang Shu said seemed reasonable. He hesitantly agreed to the three-month appointment.

"Thank you, father, thank you, mother." Jiang Shu was very excited and full of ambition.

In the evening, Jiang Ning returned home from school and saw Jiang Shu wearing men's clothes, with black hair tied up high, no makeup and thick eyebrows. She had changed from a young lady to a young master Jiang.

"How is it?" Jiang Shu turned around in front of Jiang Ning proudly.

Jiang Ning was stunned and dropped her pen on the ground in shock.

"Sister, why are you dressed like this?"

Jiang Shu raised her eyebrows and said, "I want to learn business from my father."

"Women doing business" Jiang Ning thought his sister was really cool.

So from that day on, there was a handsome young man beside Jiang's father, and he learned business from him.

Jiang Shu was smart and interested in business. She had some experience in managing a dowry shop before, so she learned quickly. In

just one or two months, she understood the key points of various shops in the Jiang family and became Jiang's father's right-hand man.

One day, Jiang Shu and his father finished their inspection of the grain store. When they stopped for a break and had a cup of tea, the silk shop assistant came to report.

"Boss, something bad has happened."

Jiang's father put down his teacup. "What happened?"

The assistant said, "Today we went to the dock to pick up the goods, but we didn't receive a single truckload of goods."

"What happened?" Jiang's father asked sullenly.

"The silk supplier who supplied us went back on his word and changed to cooperate with the Fang family. All the silk that arrived today was taken away by the Fang family."

"How can this be possible?" Jiang's father slammed the table and stood up, walking hurriedly.

Jiang Shu hurriedly got up and followed him.

It is early winter now, the critical time to change seasons and add clothes, and it is an important period for the Yizhuang to make profits. If the goods are out of stock, Jiang's Yizhuang will suffer heavy losses.

After Jiang's father went to the Yizhuang to understand the whole story, he went to the inn to find the delivery manager Zhao.

"We have cooperated for many years, why did you suddenly run out of stock?" Jiang's father asked angrily.

Manager Zhao was well prepared. He took out the contract signed with the Jiang family and several banknotes and said: "Don't worry, Boss Jiang, according to the rules, pay double the deposit, you count it."

Seeing those banknotes, Jiang's father suddenly realized. He fell into the trap of the Fang family and Manager Zhao a few months ago.

In the past, when the Jiang family placed an order with Zhao, the shopkeeper would pay a 30% deposit. But this time, Zhao, the shopkeeper, took the initiative to ask the Jiang family to pay a deposit of 1,000 taels on the grounds that he trusted the Jiang family after many years of cooperation.

Although the Jiang family was suspicious at the time, they did not think much about it. It was not

until this time that Jiang's father understood the reason.

The Fang family's plan was not to be said to be not vicious.

But the Jiang family had no evidence and could only swallow this dumb loss.

"Despicable and shameless!" Jiang's father was so angry that his heart tightened.

Zhao, the shopkeeper, snorted coldly: "The way to do business is to make profits. Boss Jiang did nothing. Why are you dissatisfied with making 1,000 taels for nothing?"

"You!" Jiang's father was so angry that he couldn't speak.

"Boss Jiang, goodbye." Zhao, the shopkeeper, stuffed the contract and the banknote into Jiang's father and ordered him to leave.

"Shameless villain!" Father Jiang returned to the manor in anger and called storekeeper Liu to discuss countermeasures.

"How much stock is left in the warehouse? Can we wait to find a new source of stock now?"

Storekeeper Liu frowned and said, "There are only a few dozen left in the warehouse. We can't wait to find a new source of stock."

"What should we do now?" Father Jiang paced back and forth anxiously.

Storekeeper Liu hung his head and said nothing.
