Chapter 49 Progress
As soon as Jiang Ce returned to his courtyard, he saw his aunt sitting there early.
I think he came here to become the world's number one businessman.
"Cer, you're back." Seeing her son returning, the aunt smiled, and the smile was very real.
"Well, aunt, why are you here in such a hot day?" Jiang Ce stepped forward and helped his aunt who had just stood up and asked.
"I came here just to ask you, what were you doing at the No. 1 Merchant in the World?" She knew that her son had suffered a lot in the mansion because of her.
Now that there is a way out, she is of course willing to let her son fight for it.
"Aunt, I can't tell you this yet, but don't worry, I will never let you down." Jiang Ce has a pretty good relationship with his mother.
Of course, his mother was also awake.
Not everything is based on the husband.
"But I need money. I have some money in my hand. You can take it if you need it." Her main purpose of coming here was to give money to her son.
"No, I have enough money." His expenses were not high, and he was just a concubine's son in the city lord's mansion, so there was no one he needed to curry favor with, which saved him a lot of expenses.
"If it's not enough, ask your aunt for more. Everything your aunt has is yours." She only hopes that her son will be successful so that she can move out with her son after they have their family separated.
"Okay, I will." Jiang Ce nodded with a smile, "Aunt, let me tell you something. Mother may want to help me get married. Don't resist her, just go along with her." He was afraid that his aunt would suffer.
When my aunt heard this, she almost fainted.
But she soon took a deep breath and calmed down.
"I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I know what to do." She could do nothing.
How could he not know the suffering his aunt was going through? After accompanying his aunt for dinner, Jiang Ce personally sent her back to the courtyard.
Compared to the complexity of Jiang Ce's home, Shen Shiyou and Wei Nan's homes are much simpler.
Shen Shiyou's actions were also discovered by his family. Regardless of his mother's ability to stand up, she did not allow those annoying people in the family to say anything about him in front of him.
Wei Nan's situation was even simpler. Wei's mother prepared dinner. At the dinner table, when she learned that there was still no news, she comforted Wei Nan and told him not to worry too much.
Studying is the most important thing. If you owe money, you can pay it back later.
Wei's mother thought to herself that she might as well find some fine work to do and earn some money.
Xiaoxuan is even more carefree.
As soon as he got home, he told his elder sister that there was no news yet. Xia Yutong was in no mood to pay attention to him.
She has made a lot of good things recently.
One by one, it's still under experiment.
"I see. It's okay to wait a little longer." It was bright yellow. She knew who could wear it, so she was not in a hurry.
But if they want to continue dyeing it bright yellow, I'm afraid they are not qualified.
It was also her negligence at that time. If she had known earlier, she would have let him study the bright red color.
"Mom, come here and help me try this. I think this color looks better." She has been obsessed with rouge recently.
Don't underestimate this thing. The powder version can also be used as eye shadow, blush, etc.
"You kid, you might be possessed by a demon. This color is almost the same as the one you used on your mother just now. Why do you still want to try it?" Mother Xia has been frightened by her eldest daughter these days.
"It's different, Mom, it's different." Xia Yutong retorted, "Don't underestimate this little color difference, the makeup they create is completely different."
He didn't understand women's affairs. Seeing that his elder sister didn't leave him, Xiaoxuan had to go back to his room.
Xiaoxuan Shuanzi saw his young master's face full of disappointment, so he said, "Young master, why don't you go and play with the young lady for a while?"
"Yeah, come on, let's go out and buy some things." Humph, the eldest sister ignored him, so he went to play with the younger sister.
After waiting for another three days, Xiaoxuan and others were finally invited into the trading company by the world's number one businessman.
After Wen Li asked Dayi to check the fabric, Dayi brought back the news the next day.
He smiled when he learned that it was Xiaoxuan and others who completed it under the guidance of the eldest daughter of the Xia family.
It really was effortless.
I was originally thinking about how to get close to her, but now it seems that the opportunity is right in front of me.
Xia Yutong had no idea that someone was targeting her brother in order to get close to her. After Xiaoxuan and the others were invited to the No. 1 Business in the World, someone immediately came forward to contact them.
Wen Li is not suitable to show up, and his identity cannot appear here.
"Four of you, we, the world's number one merchant, have always been trustworthy, but this time is different. The bright yellow cloth you handed over cannot be sold in our store at all."
A steward patiently explained to them the importance of the bright yellow cloth.
After hearing this, the four of them broke out in cold sweats.
"Then why do you want to be in charge?" Jiang Ce asked as the eldest brother.
Looking at these young masters who were younger than his own children, the manager became more patient.
"We, the world's number one merchant, will not let you suffer any loss. We have two options. One is that you sell the dyeing recipe to us, and the other is that you hand it over to the court."
He knew that the young man in front of him was the son of the City Lord's Mansion. If he wanted to hand him over, they had no right to interfere.
After hearing the two options, Jiang Ce agreed to the first one without hesitation.
Sell.
Why hand it in?
They couldn't get the benefits given by the court, and their brothers would suffer instead. He couldn't do such a thing, and besides, he didn't want to.
The steward laughed after hearing this and said, "Okay, we won't let you guys down. So, we'll pay 5,000 taels for the dye recipe."
After the price was announced, the manager knew they would definitely find it too little, so he spoke again, "We know it's a little low, but there's nothing we can do. The most we, the world's number one merchant, can do is give you another shop. I'm afraid you probably have more than just this one recipe."
As a man born into business, Shen Shiyou immediately responded: "I don't know whether it is inside or outside the city."
Don't underestimate the two differences, they are huge.
"Of course it's outside the city." This won't work in a shop in the inner city.
It's a big loss.
"Don't feel you're at a disadvantage. We, the world's number one chamber of commerce, will print our business seal on your store." The manager said with a smile.
He really has high hopes for them.
Xiaoxuan wanted to fight for it again, but Jiang Ce stopped him: "Okay, we'll listen to the manager."
Thus, the recipe for bright yellow cloth dyeing was handed over in this way.
Holding the contract and banknotes given by the World's Number One Merchant, the four of them walked out of the World's Number One Merchant, each of them dejected.
After seeing this, the spies returned home one by one to report.
The four of them came to their usual gathering place and looked at the two things on the table.
"Brother Jiang, why don't you let me fight for the shop in the inner city?" Xiaoxuan asked somewhat confusedly.
Jiang Ce shook his head, "It's not that I don't allow it, but we can't fight for it. Even if we get it, do you think the business in the inner city will be better than outside the city?" His family lives in the city, and he knows the situation in the city better than anyone else.
It would be better to use the shops in the outer city freely.
