Chapter 482 Opening a Shop Again
"Why, are you short of money?" The Queen Mother said quickly, "Grandmother is rich. Keep your mother's dowry, and you still have a long life ahead of you."
She didn't want Yun Ting to use it unless it was a critical moment.
"I don't need your money, Grandmother. I'm just borrowing thirty thousand taels of silver. I'll pay it back later. If you want to do some business, you can't just sit back and eat up all your savings."
"I'm glad you think so." The Queen Mother felt relieved.
Although my daughter's dowry was worth more than 200,000 taels at the time, it would only become more abundant over the years.
But she still paid Yun Ting 20,000 taels out of her own pocket and said, "For the remaining 10,000 taels, think of other ways and try not to touch your mother's dowry."
She spoke earnestly, "Grandmother has plenty of money, but she gave you too much at once to avoid attracting attention. It's no big deal if you lose money. In business, losing money is a lesson, not a real loss."
"Okay." Yun Ting agreed with a smile, "Grandma, wait for me to make money and honor you."
"Okay, okay."
But after laughing, the Queen Mother said, "Don't be so obsessed with the money. Grandmother hopes that you can make further progress. I will be completely relieved if I can help you rise to a higher level during your uncle's lifetime. I will also explain to your mother when I meet her."
"I know, Grandma." Yun Ting lowered his eyes. "Haste makes waste. I learned a lot in Yongji County. I'll be back in two years."
He has to be able to convince the public.
He still needs a lot of practice.
Now I feel that all the time I wasted in the past was such a pity.
"I don't know what the situation will be like in two years." The Queen Mother sighed, "Ting'er, don't mind Grandma's nagging. Get along well with the Crown Prince."
No matter how much she dislikes him, he is still her grandson and the one who will inherit the throne in the future.
"Well, I think the same thing as you. The Crown Prince likes calligraphy and painting. Among my mother's dowry, there are authentic works of calligraphy and painting by masters of the previous dynasty. I want to present them to the Crown Prince."
This time, the Queen Mother did not object and was very pleased.
"If you can think of these things, grandma will really have less worries in the future."
It's rare that this grandson, who has always been unruly, has now learned to bow his head.
Yun Ting did not lie to the Queen Mother.
He did take the calligraphy and paintings to ask for an audience with the prince, and he was very humble.
Although the prince didn't show anything, he was still happy.
Yun Ting came out of the East Palace and went to find Chang Hui again.
These days, Chang Hui declined all invitations and just helped out in Manager Chang's shop.
Chang Hui was surprised to see Yun Ting coming to see him, and thought to himself, could it be that Yun Ting also wanted him to be the head manager?
Yun Ting invited him to a private room in the teahouse and poured tea for him personally.
Chang Hui was flattered and quickly stood up and said, "Prince, let me do it."
"No need to be so formal. You take a seat, I'll come. I've come to ask you for something today. We're of the same age, and there's no outsider here, so we can just address each other as equals."
I have to say that although Yun Ting is a bit of a scoundrel, when he is really willing to put down his airs, he can still easily make people feel warm and at ease.
Chang Hui felt that what he thought was probably correct.
"Regarding the Sihai Grocery Store and Zhuozhuo's former rouge shop," Yun Ting said, "I think it's a shame they've been shut down. They've built up their reputations with great effort, so they should continue to operate. What do you think?"
Chang Hui said cautiously: "It's indeed a pity."
He suspected that Yun Ting wanted to reopen the two shops himself.
Well, he didn't really want to answer it.
Because it will trigger some sentimental memories and only increase your regrets.
In fact, Chang Hui has been considering leaving the capital these days and going to the Shanxi merchant's shop in the north to make a living.
It just hasn't been finalized yet.
"Xiao Yan suffered an unprovoked disaster this time. You say he came from a bad family, but that's just his own bad luck. But Qi Niang and the Zhao Zhao sisters are truly innocent."
Yun Ting said this and invited Chang Hui to drink tea, "Try it, this tea is something I picked up when I left the Empress Dowager's palace. It's not bad."
Chang Hui took a sip as instructed and enjoyed the refreshing aroma of the tea.
He is bold and daring in the business world, but he still seems awkward and awkward when facing such an important occasion.
"You know, I've lived in Xiao Yan and Qi Niang's home for a long time. Xiao Yan and I are related, and we've been friends for many years. It's not an exaggeration to say we're family," Yun Ting said. "So I couldn't bear to see them work so hard, only to end up with nothing."
"I have plenty of money, but I don't know how to run a business, so I want to ask you. If I pay you the money and give you the same treatment as before, would you be willing to reopen these two shops?"
Chang Hui moved his lips, but ultimately said nothing, as if he was worried about something.
Yun Ting smiled and said, "If you have any concerns, just tell me."
"I want to ask, Prince, under whose name these two shops are registered?" Chang Hui said after careful consideration.
This is important.
If it is under the name of Xiao Yan but is actually under the name of Yun Ting, he would not be willing to make wedding dresses for others.
Although saying this would offend people, Chang Hui still said it.
"Let's put them all under Zhuozhuo's name. What do you think?" Yun Ting said.
He still thought that Erya would stay and marry Chang Hui.
In his heart, this was his dowry to Erya.
But he knew he couldn't say it.
Chang Hui is a man and has self-esteem.
In response to Chang Hui's shock, Yun Ting gave some explanation.
——He had gone over these words in his mind countless times, so he could say them without any effort and with a calm expression.
"Because Qi Niang and Xiao Yan are from the same family, and Xiao Yan has a bad life, he's too unlucky, and always has troubles. So if I put it under his name, I'm afraid it will be in vain again."
"Zhao Zhao is already married to Jiang Xuan, so it's not suitable. So I thought I'd use some connections and take Zhuo Zhuo and Jiao Jiao to set up a female business tomorrow. I'll put these two shops under Zhuo Zhuo's name; I'll have other arrangements for Jiao Jiao."
"I see." Chang Hui nodded, as if thinking.
"I didn't give this money out for nothing. I considered it a loan to Xiao Yan. If I lose, forget it. But if I make a profit, I have to return my investment. Otherwise, you know Xiao Yan, who doesn't like to take advantage of others, will definitely not agree."
After a pause, Yun Ting continued, "I know this matter is of great importance. Go back and think about it, and discuss it with Zhuo Zhuo."
"Prince, if you can make up your mind, I can give you a definite answer now. I agree." Chang Hui said.
It's scorching.
All industries are still bright and prosperous.
He is willing.
At the same time, a flash of enlightenment quietly passed through Chang Hui's heart - he vaguely glimpsed Yun Ting's deep feelings.
Some things cannot be hidden.
Because he loves too.
Because he also carefully hides his love.
Because he didn't get it either.
Because he also buried his regret deep in his heart.
