Chapter 77: I Didn’t Take the Marquis’ Mansion Seriously

There were layers of people moving around in the silk shop, and it was impossible to see where the cloth was. The servant was busy as hell. Mother Wen looked again and again, but there were too many people and she couldn't see Su Jin at all.

Mother Wen was a little anxious: "Hey, the lady is not here again, right?"

Zou walked in and said anxiously, "Go in and take a look at the soap first!"

The two squeezed to the door, but couldn't get in. The people inside didn't come out, so the people outside naturally couldn't get in. The servant was squeezed and kept shouting: "Everyone, stop squeezing. If you want to see what kind of soap you want, just look up and see what's hanging on the wall! If you buy 20 taels of cloth, you will get a small one for free. 50 taels will give you a medium-sized one. 100 taels will give you the most precious gold foil soap. It's pure gold foil inside. It's an absolutely exclusive experience!"

Gold leaf soap?

Zou was stunned.

There is no gold foil in her soaps. They are all floral oils, with some spices and herbs at most. They are all from Dixiang Pavilion. Where did the lady's gold foil soap come from?

The old lady quickly looked up at the soap hanging on the wall. It would have been fine if she hadn't looked at it, but when she did, even she thought the soap was beautiful.

The small one has flowers inside and is wrapped in a layer of translucent beeswax soap on the outside. The medium-sized one looks like peach blossom pastry, but it is double-sided, one side is translucent amber, and the other side is whitish peach pink. As for the largest one, it is translucent as a whole, with pearl-like white balls scattered inside, and a lot of gold foil mixed in. When the sun shines on it, it shines brightly and is surprisingly beautiful.

"Madam, this is not our soap!"

Mother Wen couldn't take her eyes off them, these soaps were so beautiful, they felt as good as the soaps from Dixiangge. Such good soaps were given away for free?

Mother Wen suddenly felt distressed. How much money could she make if she sold it?

Zou was also full of questions.

Where are the soaps she gave to the lady? Did the child throw them away?

What is going on?

When the two were wondering, Yuchuan squeezed through the crowd and bowed, saying, "Madam, the eldest lady is upstairs, but she is not feeling well and can't come down to squeeze in, so she sent a servant to take the old lady upstairs."

upstairs?

Only then did Zou notice that there was a second floor. She followed Yuchuan upstairs and saw Su Jin.

"Mom, why didn't you tell me you were coming here? There are too many people here and it's very noisy."

Zou covered her chest and shook her head: "Madam, where are the soaps I gave you?"

“They’re all down there.”

Down there?

"But those hanging there aren't..."

"Oh, I modified it a little bit. All the ones my mother had were broken. How could I give them away as gifts?"

“…”

That’s true, but Zou never expected that Su Jin’s business would be so prosperous just by giving away soaps.

"They only take soap and don't buy fabric?"

Su Jin smiled and said nothing, so Yuchuan said, "No, at least twenty taels can be exchanged for a small piece of soap. These days, the store's income starts at a thousand taels!"

so much!

Zou was shocked. The best shop she owned only made a turnover of a hundred taels of silver a month, but the eldest lady's silk and satin shop made a daily income of a thousand taels? ?

Wow, this business is so good, isn’t it?

When she thought about the fact that her shop had lost more than half of its profit, and then looked at Su Jin's shop which made a daily profit of 1,000 taels, Zou couldn't help but feel sad that she was getting old. She used to laugh at Su Jin for having no vision, but now it seemed that she was the one who was embarrassed.

Zou couldn't help but said earnestly, "Madam, your soap is so good, it's even better than the ones in Dixiang Pavilion. You might as well open a shop, and you will definitely make a fortune every day."

Su Jin smiled, but still refused: "Mother, I've already said that I won't open a store."

It still doesn’t open.

Zou couldn't help but sigh. What a silly child, why doesn't he want to make money?

"Look at Liu Ji, their business is booming!"

Zou still remembered Liu's. After all, they were on the same street and often competed with each other. Either you took my business or I took your business. They had different political views to begin with, and now they were mortal enemies in business as well.

But even though Liu Ji's business was good, Zou didn't think that Liu Ji made any money, because everyone was lowering prices together. As the saying goes, if you hurt your enemy by a thousand, you hurt yourself by eight hundred. She lost money, and Liu Ji didn't suffer either!

But both were losing money, but her own customers were less than others, and Zou was also angry. If Su Jin could do the soap business, wouldn't she be able to turn the situation around?

Thinking of her eyes full of hope looking at Su Jin, the eldest lady said calmly: "Mother, wait for three more days."

Still waiting?

Zou wanted to speak, but finally kept her mouth shut.

Facts have proved that when it comes to doing business, I am not as good as Su Jin, so it is better for me to keep my mouth shut.

However, after waiting for three days, the old lady was even more confused about the market situation because Liu's business suddenly closed down.

The old lady was shocked.

Why did it suddenly close down? Did it go bankrupt due to losses? That's impossible. Does General Liu's Mansion need this little money?

The more Zou thought about it, the more strange it seemed to her. She wanted to ask Su Jin again, but Su Jin was not at home.

The old lady had no choice but to go out again. She was now impatient to meet the eldest lady and get everything clear.

At this time, Su Jin's carriage was blocked by another carriage in an empty alley.

The driver was so angry that he pointed at the other person and yelled, "Do you know whose carriage this is? How dare you stop the carriage of the Marquis' Mansion?!"

The other party's carriage was just an ordinary black-covered carriage, and its rank could not be identified. The driver was a young man dressed in black, with a long sword on his waist and a heroic face, looking very extraordinary.

However, facing the accusations of the coachman of the Marquis' Mansion, the other party did not move at all. Either he did not recognize the Marquis' Mansion's carriage at all, or... maybe he really did not take the Marquis' Mansion seriously.

"Madam, I'm going to meet him!" Yuchuan rolled up her sleeves and was about to jump out of the car to fight, but was pulled back by Su Jin.

If the plot was correct, she thought she already knew who was in the carriage opposite.

Thinking of this, Su Jin lifted the curtain and walked out, jumping off the carriage first.

"Madam, I don't know where this person came from, and he doesn't even recognize the carriage of the Marquis' Mansion..."

"Shut up!"

The driver shut up in anger after hearing the scolding. He rubbed his nose in grievance, wondering why the lady scolded him. He had done nothing wrong and was loyal to his master. It was really unfair for the lady to treat him like this...

Just as he was feeling aggrieved, the coachman suddenly saw Su Jin actually bowing towards the other carriage.

Driver: ...

????

Yuchuan, who had just jumped off the carriage and was about to fight the rogue carriage: ...

???

Madam, what are you doing? You are the daughter-in-law of a noble mansion, why are you bowing to such an ordinary carriage?

Is this crazy?
