Back To My Husband’s Youth

As soon as the word Lin'an came into her ears, Gu Wuyou's face changed, and her hairy movement stopped. She raised her eyes to look at Bai Lu, frowning and asked, "What happened?"

"The slave just found out when I passed by the outer courtyard and met the third young master talking to Guan Shi next to him."

Bai Lu's face was not very beautiful, and she lowered her head and replied softly, "Guan Shi Xu just came back from Lin'an and heard the Third Young Master asking about Li Gongzi, so he told him about the recent events in Lin'an."

"He said that Young Master Li made a batch of sales with the owner of a silk and satin shop in Shaoxing a month ago, and asked for five hundred brocades to be offered in late April. It was originally about to be completed. How can I expect..."

She said this so eloquently, but Gu Wuyou couldn't sit still. She stood up and said anxiously, "What happened?"

Bai Lu didn't dare to conceal it anymore and said everything, "When the silks and satin were shipped to Lin'an, the weather was bad and it happened to hit a huge wave. All the brocades were soaked in water and could not be used anymore."

Giant waves?

The blood on Gu Wuyou's face disappeared, her heartbeat accelerated, and the first question she asked was, "Is there anything wrong with him?"

Bai Lu froze for a moment, and hurriedly replied after returning to his senses: "Looking at what Xu said, Li Gongzi should not be injured, and he has returned to Lin'an safely now."

Knowing that there was nothing wrong with Li Qinyuan, Gu Wuyou breathed a sigh of relief, but he thought of the batch of weaving brocades, his complexion suddenly became difficult to look at, and he sat back on the soft couch with his lips pressed and said nothing.

The fifteen people around him also noticed that her condition was not right, so they didn't dare to harass her like before. They only put their head over and touched her hand with the soft fur, as if they were comforting her.

Gu Wuyou looked down at it, and saw it grinning, and the emotions in her heart recovered a little. She grinned reluctantly, and then asked her dumbly, "Where is the third brother?"

"The third young master went out again when he knew the news, and he guessed that this meeting hasn't come back yet."

Gu Wuyou didn’t speak any more when she heard the words. Instead, she sat on the soft couch and remembered a way. Although she can’t do business, she also knows that the brocade is very precious. This is a cloth that has only become popular in recent years, because The precious materials and the complicated and gorgeous colors are very popular among the nobles.

No matter which silk and satin shop it is, as long as it is new, it will be robbed.

One piece of weaving brocade and one embroiderer need to sleep for three days to complete. Five hundred of weaving brocade...If there is plenty of time, it would be okay, but now it’s almost half a month before the end of April. How can we make it again in time? ?

I thought that Li Qinyuan had mentioned this in a letter sent to her a while ago.

At that time, there was an unconcealable spirit between his words, and he said that if this business is done, it will be connected to the silk and satin shop in Shaoxing in the future, and there will be no need to do a loose business, and it can be directly supplied to the silk and satin shop. It's a long-term business.

Even if she didn't see it with her own eyes, she could know from his letter that the general was very concerned about this business.

Otherwise, he wouldn't transport it himself.

The room was quiet, not even fifteen, except that the warm wind from outside patted the window and made a small noise. Gu Wuyou did not remain silent for a long time. After a moment of indulgence, her face calmed down. Say, "Go and invite me the steward in the mother's dowry shop."

The birth of the royal family

Yi is mainly in Langya, but it is also studied in Beijing.

If she remembers correctly, there are a few silk and satin shops in her mother's dowry shop, and the business is pretty good.

Bai Lu knew what she was going to do, and didn't say much, so she agreed to make arrangements.

...

Wait for steward Li to be sent away.

Gu Wuyou's face is still not pretty.

The weaving brocade is too popular. In addition to the pre-ordered list, only a few dozen horses are left in the shop. Gu Wuyou asked people to keep those and not to sell them again. He sent people to outside to inquire if there was any extra weaving. Yunjin won all, regardless of the price.

After such a busy schedule, the sky was also dark.

Bai Lu looked at her with a tired face, and said distressed: "You have been tired for a day, so go to the rest meeting first, and when the dinner is over, I will call you up again."

Gu Wuyou is not in the mood to eat, she is full of Li Qinyuan now, she can't wait to put on her wings and fly to people. Her general has been proud for more than ten years. I am afraid this is the first loss in his life. I don’t know. How is he now.

The more I think about it.

The distress on her face grew stronger.

Bai Lu wanted to persuade again, but the little girl's voice came from outside, "Princess, the third young master is back."

In the morning, Gu Wuyou sent a message to the bottom and asked them to stare at the porter. If the third brother came back, he would come and tell her directly, whatever the time.

When Gu Wuyou heard the news, the fatigue on his face was swept away, and he immediately stood up.

"The princess—" Bai Lu followed, seeing her like this, and for a while, she blamed her for having the same words in the morning, but she also knew the master's temper. If she didn't say it, she would know about it in the future, I am afraid that she will have to worry , She had no choice but to follow others with her cloak.

In April, it was still a bit cold at night.

Gu Wuyou tied the cloak Bai Lu put on her, and he walked quickly toward Gu Rong's house while holding the lamp in front of him and pursing his lips.

Gu Rong had just returned, and before he took a sip of the tea, he heard a voice outside.

He is a bit hygienic. He has to take a shower and change clothes every time he comes back. This is already ready for people. But seeing Gu Wuyou hurried in, he had to give up, sit back on the chair, and point to the position beside him. , Poured another cup of tea and handed it to her, and asked softly, "You all know?"

"Three brothers,"

Gu Wuyou took the tea and didn't want to drink it, put it aside, and said anxiously, "What is going on now? Do you have a way?"

Gu Rong took a sip of tea and sighed, "I asked me to stop selling all the brocades in several shops, but our family didn’t involve much in the business of cloth. Even if we put it together, we have a total of more than 100 pieces. I also asked a few people I knew about other silk and satin shops, most of them were booked to leave.

Even if I sell my face, it is estimated that I won't be able to get much. "

"Then... what should I do?"

Gu Wuyou calmed down for a day, looking for a steward and a cron, to do this and do that, holding a sigh of relief, even if he was tired, he did not fall down, but at this time he heard Gu Rong's words, he still bears it. Can't help but red eyes.

"Don't worry, I've already asked people to put away all those cloths, no matter how much, let Qi Lang take them for urgent use first." Gu Rong softly persuaded: "This is still a while before the end, there is always a way to solve it. "

He doesn’t worry about the cloth. No matter how difficult it is, he will always be able to solve it with one search. What he is worried about is that Shichiro will fail after that... When he first started a business, he had also lost, and that time almost didn’t let him slow down. come.

Gu Wuyou seemed to have thought about it. He raised a pair of red eyes under the candlelight in the room and asked him, "Brother, you said he...how is he doing now?"

Gu Rong didn't speak, just looked at her and sighed slightly, then raised his hand and touched her head.

Gu Wuyou didn't seem to want him to answer either. He held his two thin white and weak hands overlapped, lowered his head, and his eyes were red, as if he was talking to himself, "He must be uncomfortable now. I'm afraid he hasn't After encountering such a thing, I was originally wondering why he didn't write to me for a while."

In the past few days, she could receive a letter from Lin'an.

this time--

But I have not received it for a long time.

Originally thought he was busy, but now thinking about it, I'm afraid he didn't even have a letter because he felt that he didn't have the face to meet her.

"It's pretty..." Gu Rong listened to her murmur, and just wanted to say a word to persuade her. Before she could finish her words, the girl who was still bowing her head suddenly raised her head. Under the candlelight in the room, her pair was fair. The eyes that were still shining with tears were shining, like broken stars in the sky, shining dazzlingly.

"Third brother, I'm going to find him." She looked at him with a decisive tone.

Lin'an at this time.

It was very late, but the Defeng main store was brightly lit. Xu Yong and Cong Yu, together with several stewards and shopkeepers in Jiangnan, did not leave. They were discussing the matter in the largest box on the second floor.

Some older people couldn’t help complaining at this meeting: “I said earlier that I told the owner not to do this business. We have been relying on scattered sales for so many years. He has to do business with Shaoxing. It's better now, not to mention the loss of all the goods, but also a large loss of such a large amount of money, and now it is done, how can it be done?"

Shen Bai has been resigned from his post, but there are still a few old stewards in Jiangnan who superficially convince Li Qinyuan, but when things happen, they only know to blame.

Xu Yong and Cong Yu are the most uncomfortable with such a person. When dividends are distributed, they open their eyes and are full of "The owner is good." Whenever there is an accident, they only know to shirk, and don't want to take responsibility at all.

"No, although our business was not good at first, we still get dividends at least every year. Now..."

The man blew his beard and stared, obviously out of anger. After a few words over and over, he mumbled: "It's better to be in charge."

Cong Yu had a quick temper. He couldn't help it anymore. He slapped the table and cursed: "A few times before, I didn't see you say that when the owner was making money. Why, now something has happened, all of them belong to the owner. Fault?"

"Defeng has been stagnant for so many years and has been

Can't afford it, now the owner has finally raised Defeng's reputation again, you are good, one by one will only be an afterthought, so disagree, when the owner asked your opinions, why did you not refute it? "

"Hey, you!"

The several Defeng veterans who had been scolded were unable to make ends meet. As soon as they were about to scold them, the door was pushed open from the outside.

Li Qinyuan walked in from the outside and saw a group of people who were facing each other. He kept walking under his feet. He glanced at the people with a deep gaze, and asked indifferently: "What are you talking about, so lively?"

This house

People in the son are generally older than Li Qinyuan, some are one round higher, some are two rounds higher, but looking at this young man, who is only seventeen years old, no one dared to underestimate him, almost before he came in. , The group of people who had been sitting stood up.

Regardless of whether anyone accused Li Qinyuan just now, they all lower their heads and shouted respectfully: "My boss."

"Ok."

Li Qinyuan replied casually. He unbuttoned his cloak while sitting in the main seat. Facing the ten or so people, there was no expression on his face, and his eyes swept over the crowd without warmth. Then he said, "Sit down." "

After some rustling sounds, everyone sat back, but the people who blushed and quarreled just now were silent.

Especially the one who just said that Shen Bai is a good manager, even more dare not even look up.

Who doesn't know how miserable Shen Bai is now? After being expelled from Defeng, no one dared to use him anymore to deceive him and make false accounts. Even if he was not sent to the government, his reputation in their business was completely stinking.

I heard that they are now living in that room as a family, and they know about quarreling all day long, and all of the marriages that their children had decided a while ago were all blown up.

Although they said that Li Qin was far inferior to Shen Bai, this was just a few idiots in private, and they didn't dare to say a single word on the face.

Li Qinyuan held a cup of tea in his hand, and didn't settle the old account with them, just asked, "How's the discussion going?"

When he first left the capital, he was still a somewhat calm young man, but now, when he sits here, no one will really treat him as a young man. He sits on a chair, even if he doesn’t say anything, he has The imposing manner of not being angry and prestige makes people afraid to be presumptuous under his nose.

Xu Yong replied in a low voice: "The embroidery workshop that helped us make weaving brocade is already processing, but now it's more than half a month from the delivery date. Even if we rush to work, we can only produce more than 100 horses at most."

Li Qinyuan asked, "What about other firms?"

"Other firms..." Xu Yong suddenly looked embarrassed. When he received Li Qinyuan's gaze, he immediately lowered his head and replied, "Other firms are not willing to sell to us."

Cong Yu was impatient and couldn't help it. He cursed in a low voice, "Those **** just don't want us to make this business!"

It was hard to suppress Defeng and couldn't afford it. Those newly established companies naturally didn't want this old Jiangnan brand to rise again. As long as their business fails this time and their reputation is broken, who will look for them to do business in the future?

For this result, Li Qinyuan seemed to have guessed it a long time ago, and the expression on his face remained calm all the time.

He only said indifferently: "Lin'an doesn't have one, so I will go to the surrounding cities to buy it. As long as the quality is good and the price is not limited, I will buy it first.

Xu Yonghe Cong Yu always persuade him

Yes, when I heard this, I didn’t even say a word of retort. I immediately responded, but the other stewards frowned and looked at each other. One of the stewards surnamed Jiang couldn’t help but said, "My boss, The price of weaving brocade is not cheap. Now you are going to search for it. Those merchants are not stupid. They must raise the price."

"We have already lost a batch of goods. Is it possible to lose money?"

Li Qinyuan asked him unhurriedly, "Then what do you think?"

Guanshi Jiang pursed his lips, "I think we might as well talk to Shaoxing.

, This business is not done. "

"Oh?"

Li Qinyuan put down the tea cup in his hand and glanced over the others, "Do you think so too?"

Although the others did not speak, they obviously thought the same way.

Li Qinyuan put down the tea cup in his hand, folded his hands on his lower abdomen, his quiet eyes were shining in the light of the lights, his face is really beautiful, even if he stays sleepless and tired for a few days, it will not lose a trace of elegance, "So Do you think money is more important than fame?"

Everyone did not answer.

"At the beginning, the Shen family started as a small workshop, dominating the Jiangnan all the way, relying on credibility, so even if it is the same goods, the first thing everyone thinks of is Defeng." Li Qinyuan's voice seemed so silent this night. He pursed his thin lips slightly, and looked away from the crowd with cold eyes, "Defon’s business has become worse and worse in recent years, not because our goods are worse than others, but because the business people only know how to recognize money."

"Money can be lost, but reputation can't be avoided." Regardless of the ugly faces of those people, Li Qinyuan continued, "Defeng was able to get up with great difficulty and can't lose by these few thousand taels of silver."

"right now--"

Li Qinyuan swept at the crowd, suddenly letting go, "Do you have any questions?"

His powerful aura penetrated the room overwhelmingly. Guan Jiang took the brunt of the incident. His face turned pale, and he dared not say anything. He sat down on the chair and did not dare to speak. The room returned to its original silence. Li Qinyuan said straightforwardly. After that, "Since there is no problem, go and do something."

"Instead of blaming each other and complaining here, it's better to do what you have at hand first."

He didn't slap a slap and then give a sweet date. For these people, there was no actual effect, and they definitely couldn't fill their appetite. Nowadays, it is better to wait until the results are made.

Xu Yong and Cong Yu responded first and walked out with something.

The other stewards also left.

Soon, there was only Li Qinyuan left in the house.

The lights in the room have been a bit dim all night, and no one picks the wick, it seems that the whole room has become a little dim. Without the rest, Li Qinyuan’s face is not as tight as before. Since the accident, he hasn't stopped, contacting the Embroidery Workshop and visiting other companies, and has been sleepless for several days.

He is actually very tired.

But he could not fall down, nor could he let others spy on his thoughts.

If he can't support it, then the people under him can't support it even more. This is his first defeat in his seventeen years of life. It is false to say that it is not depressed, but he can't retreat, let alone give up like this.

He lowered his eyes, and the pine flower sachet on his waist gleamed in the candlelight, and he stroked it with great cherishment inch by inch.

He promised her.

He wanted to marry her and go home.
