When Shen Qingyu stood neatly dressed at the ship's railing and saw the group of one adult and two children waving in unison on the dock, she was thrilled!
“Mother! Da Bao, Xiao Bao…” Shen Qingyu waved her hand.
"Yuzhu!" Shen Zhongyi waved his hand.
Da Bao and Xiao Bao waved: "Mom..."
Zhao Yuzhu slowed her waving: Have you been missing that old man too much lately? Why are you even hallucinating?
"Daughter!" Zhao Yuzhu cheered and continued to call out.
Why didn't Shen Zhongyi realize that his wife couldn't hear him?
This was intolerable, so he quickly increased the amplitude of his arm swings and raised his voice: "Yuzhu! Zhao Yuzhu..."
Ms. Zhao Yuzhu finally heard clearly and then looked closely at the person waving his hands frantically.
I don't recognize the brocade robe and jade crown, but I do recognize the face!
Then Shen Qingyu heard her parents shout: "You old hag, you finally knew you were coming!?"
Qi Yunxiao's body trembled!
It seems this man is indeed the wife's biological father, the Duke of Wei!
Hearing this curse, Shen Qingyu almost burst into tears: the familiar taste! the familiar recipe.
It feels so good to be reunited with family!
As the boat docked, Shen Zhongyi rushed to disembark, but the two children and Zhao Yuzhu all ran back onto the boat.
The children hadn't been on a boat much before, so they were quite curious about it.
Fortunately, the grain on this ship was originally purchased by Shen Qingyu and was to be unloaded and stored in Shen Qingyu's warehouse. Since unloading the grain would take time, he took the children on board to see the wonders.
Qi Yunxiao brought the child on the boat, and Shen Qingyu and her parents finally had a chance to talk together.
In the newly purchased courtyard next to the dock, Shen Qingyu and her parents sat down in the room where the stewards drank tea and talked in detail about what they had experienced in recent days.
Shen Zhongyi first inquired about the situation of Shen Qingyu and Zhao Yuzhu.
Shen Qingyu explained her situation and some basic details of her trip, only briefly mentioning the dangers involved to avoid frightening her parents.
Even so, Shen Zhongyi and Zhao Yuzhu were not so easily fooled. They both glared at Shen Qingyu with lingering fear and, without saying a word, deprived her of her right to wander around.
“If you want to go anywhere in the future, you must go through our risk assessment and get our approval before you can leave,” Zhao Yuzhu said righteously.
"Yes." Shen Qingyu wasn't going to argue with them and obediently agreed.
Zhao Yuzhu first talked about Shen Qingyu's bizarre background, and then talked about the recent business situation of Yuji, which was naturally very good.
The chili sauce sold out among the prominent families in Beijing, and the inventory is now completely depleted.
Many people who enjoyed the various flavors of chili sauce placed orders to reserve for next year.
The braising liquid is only sold in high-end restaurants and aristocratic families. Because of its high price, ordinary small shops simply cannot afford it, so sales are limited, but the profit is extremely high.
As the weather cools down, Guiyunlou's various braised meats and offal are selling better and better, with many people buying them to take home and serve as appetizers for distinguished guests.
However, the exquisite porcelain from the porcelain workshop was so beautifully made that the manager of Guiyunlou took a liking to it and said that he would wait for Qi Yunxiao to return before deciding whether to use it as the new tableware for Guiyunlou.
Soap has now become the best source of income for the business, especially after the launch of high-end handmade soaps, which are very popular among the wealthy families in Beijing.
Because the price is too high, only wealthy families can afford to buy handmade soaps, and most of them only use them to wash their face and hands, not to use them for bathing.
Surprisingly, only the noble ladies in the palace were willing to use handmade soap to bathe!
After Zhao Yuzhu explained the business, both mother and daughter looked at Shen Zhongyi.
Shen Zhongyi chuckled and first explained that after Shen Qingyu's soul dissipated, Zhao Yuzhu had followed the advice of a master and came to find her.
Over the past six months, he has put in a lot of effort to finally find a decent professional manager to help run the group, and at the same time set up a trust fund, which is why he came here.
Who knew that I would find myself in a foreign land filled with white and brown people?
Thinking of the backward transportation of this era, Shen Zhongyi, a man from Daqi, cried bitterly several times, but he still tried his best to go home to find his wife and daughter.
He encountered robbery and storms along the way, and nearly died several times, but was fortunately saved by his guards...
After recounting his experiences, Shen Zhongyi picked up a box from beside him and handed it to Zhao Yuzhu: "This is for you."
Zhao Yuzhu opened the box and was surprised: "Did you get all of this from your sea voyages?"
Another box full of fine jewelry.
Shen Zhongyi nodded: "It's inconvenient to come back from overseas, so I had to exchange some of my earnings for these things, which are easy to carry."
Zhao Yuzhu is good at grasping the key points: "One part? What about the other part?"
Shen Zhongyi pointed towards the direction of Daxia behind him: "They're still adrift at sea!"
"What do you mean?" Shen Qingyu asked, bewildered: Was it lost? Or stolen?
Shen Zhongyi proudly explained, “I have a fleet of ships, fully loaded with all kinds of spices from overseas and things that are in high demand in China… The ships are too big and the cargo is too much, and the fleet must land at the port of Daqi. My small boat is more agile, so I came back first.”
Shen Qingyu: "...Dad, you're the best!"
Our approach to making money is to expand outwards from a single point, following a traditional mindset.
His dad is directly involved in foreign trade import and export!
Different business models lead to different profits.
In this rush, I can only pick out the most important points to talk about; the rest I'll discuss later.
At this moment, Qi Yunxiao led Da Bao and Xiao Bao off the boat. The two children knew that this middle-aged man was their grandfather, and they greeted him sweetly as soon as they came up.
