Chapter 30 A New Way to Make Money
Meixiang learned from history books that after the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty and before the bright moon, there was a rather long period of chaos during which many heroes emerged. From the history books, it was no less exciting than the official history. This time, the Chu family predicted that the time had come for the Wang family to emerge. After five years of fighting, they unified the various princes. It has been only more than twenty years since the founding of the dynasty.
Although the world was headed by four major families, due to long-term wars and chaos, there was a lot of work to be done, so there was no restriction on the development of other families. Instead, an encouraging policy was implemented for other families, encouraging farming and commercial development. The enlightened policy was cheered and supported by the people, and a situation of a hundred schools of thought contending and a hundred flowers blooming emerged. Over the past 20 years since the founding of the country, the initial signs of a prosperous era have appeared.
The fact that the Sun family has been able to rise at such a rapid pace shows that the current incentive policies have been effective.
"So what's the purpose of the Sun family coming to Liuzhou Prefecture this time?" Meixiang asked in a slightly mysterious tone, matching her boss's tone.
The owner of the medicine hall looked at Meixiang and kept her in suspense. Meixiang immediately understood: "Thank you for clearing up my confusion. Next time, I'll give you a ten-cent discount on the herbs and treat you to tea."
"Haha, you clever fellow, I only told you this because you are one of us. If it was someone else who gave me fifty or a hundred coins more, I wouldn't have told you." Seeing Meixiang coming to his senses, the landlord was quite happy. "This is a common trick used by big families. The Sun family started out with textiles and embroidery. Young Master Sun was the eldest and was raised by his widowed mother. It is said that this time Young Master Sun was competing with the second branch for the power of the family. The bet was who could find new patterns and dyeing techniques. Unfortunately, he was drawn to the north of the capital, so this time he posted a notice to collect samples."
Meixiang nodded repeatedly: "Thank you very much, boss. I wonder where their notice is posted? I also want to join in this rare fun."
"Look, it's at the northernmost end of the street near the government office. There should be a lot of people there now. You can see it at a glance."
Meixiang thanked the boss and the waiter again, said goodbye, and took Meiying and the others straight to the street where the government office was to find out what was going on.
The construction style of Liuzhou Prefecture City is obviously northern. The five main streets all run north-south. The street where the government office is located is the widest and longest of the five main streets. The Sun Mansion's shop is located at the northernmost end of this main street. Meixiang can be easily found by crossing two alleys connecting the main streets. Sure enough, the owner of the pharmacy was right because there were the most people gathered there.
Mei Ying used her height advantage to squeeze into the crowd and took back a store recruitment notice similar to today's flyers distributed by the waiter. From the fact that everyone who came prepared had a copy of the notice, it could be seen that this young master Sun was not only very quick-witted and knew how to adapt to changes in his work, but also willing to spend money to achieve his goals.
This first impression left a deep impression on Meixiang. Under the same conditions, she likes to deal with smart people, especially when she meets generous and smart people, which makes her feel very happy.
Meixiang looked down at the notice in her hand again. There were only three concise and clear items: novel style or color or innovative dyeing technology.
After thinking for a while, Meixiang squeezed through the crowd holding the notice and saw the waiter standing at the door of the store who was responsible for distributing notices. "Brother, if you have any questions about this notice, who can help me?"
The waiter was stunned at first when he saw the little girl who was not even as tall as his shoulders, but he quickly reacted and smiled: "Hello, girl, this is our manager Sun in charge of this matter, you can ask him directly."
Meixiang followed the waiter's gaze and looked at the middle-aged man with a short beard who looked gentle and elegant standing not far behind him. "Manager Sun, this girl has a question. Are you free to help her solve it now?"
Manager Sun had noticed Meixiang ever since she squeezed to the front of the crowd. She was goal-oriented, efficient, and polite in her speech. Now, seeing her clear and determined eyes looking at him, it was easy to forget her height and age.
"Miss, could you please come in and speak?"
Meixiang looked at Meiying and the other two who squeezed in behind her, gave Meiying a reassuring look, then took Xiaosan and followed Manager Sun into the store.
After more than half an hour, Meixiang said goodbye to Manager Sun with a smile on her face. Although she had a very pleasant conversation with Manager Sun and both of them felt that they had met too late, she still forced herself to ignore the coughing and wheezing of the young man coming from the inner hall from time to time.
She didn't want to be the saint who saves people from suffering. Meixiang secretly made up her mind that it was not easy to protect the people around her and there was no need to make trouble for herself.
Today, Meixiang did not stay in the city as usual. After leaving Manager Sun, she took Meiying and the others directly back to Liu's house before lunch.
After lunch, he plunged into the bookstore and started working. This abnormal operation directly confused the beautiful lady and others, but the beautiful lady did not call Mei Ying and others to ask questions, but only asked Nanny Chen to boil water and make tea.
The beautiful woman's reaction greatly suited Meixiang's personality, which ensured that she would always be the first in Meixiang's heart no matter how many storms and challenges she faced in the years to come.
Two hours later, Meixiang walked out of the study and sat down with the beautiful woman who was drinking tea at the table in the yard after taking a nap. Meixiang called out to Nanny Chen who was about to leave after making tea for her: "Mammy, are you free now? If you are, can you sit down and have a chat with me?"
Nanny Chen looked at the beautiful woman and said, "Li Niang, if you don't have anything urgent to do, please sit down."
After the nanny sat down at the table, Meixiang organized her words and asked, "Mother, nanny, if I partner with other families to do cloth and embroidery business, will it make it difficult for you to do business in the capital?"
The two beautiful ladies were shocked and warmed at the same time when they saw Meixiang's serious expression. Xiang'er put them at the forefront of everything: "Mother, I don't know why Xiang'er asked this. I remember I said it before, and I will reiterate it today."
The beautiful woman glanced at Nanny Chen, and after she nodded in agreement, they looked at Meixiang with firm eyes and said, "Xiang'er, if you have any ideas, just do it boldly. Even if you want to expose the truth, your mother will support you. Nanny and I have only one request that you must remember, and that is to put your own safety first! As for the rest, just do as you like!"
Meixiang felt warmed at heart when she heard this. How could she be so worthy to have such a good mother? No wonder that girl Liu Meihua was jealous of her to the point of madness.
"Yes, Xiang'er will remember it. Thank you mother and nanny." Meixiang said with red eyes.
"Silly girl." The beautiful woman gently rubbed Meixiang's hair, and the three of them smiled at each other. Then Meixiang told her everything that happened in the city today and her plans.
After hearing this, the beautiful lady and Nanny Chen fell into deep thought.
