You kid! You don't have to be so low-key! !

Chapter 13 Dogs look down on people

The guard Yan Yong's face looked a little ugly, but he didn't dare to refute. It was obvious that this housekeeper Man had an extraordinary status in the Que Mansion.

Butler Man continued to question: "What's the matter?"

Yan Yong bowed and replied, "It's a friend of the young lady who came to see you."

Butler Man glanced disdainfully at Chang Qing and Yu Ling Long, who were wearing linen clothes.

He frowned and said, "Yan Yong, have you not eaten? Your eyes can't see clearly? How can these two poor beggars be friends with the young lady?"

Yan Yong was about to explain, but was interrupted by Butler Man:

"No buts, I want to see how these two lowly people dare to cling to my young lady's relationship!"

As he said this, he walked towards Changqing aggressively.

"You two are the ones saying that she is my young lady's friend?" asked Butler Man.

The conversation between Butler Man and Yan Yong was quite loud, and Chang Qing and Yu Linglong could hear it clearly.

Their faces turned cold, and they chose to ignore this snobbish butler.

Seeing that the two of them looked down upon him, Butler Man was furious:

"How dare you two lowly people ignore this butler like this! Today I will let you see how powerful I am!"

He called the guards forward.

Yan Yong realized that the situation was not good, so he ran into the mansion and wanted to inform the young lady about it and ask her to come forward to resolve it.

Just then, a luxurious carriage slowly drove up and stopped at the door.

The horses on the carriage were decorated with golden armor, which made them particularly eye-catching.

Changqing's eyes lit up and he felt that the carriage looked very familiar.

When Butler Man saw the carriage arriving, he quickly ordered the guards to leave and put on a flattering smile.

He looked at Chang Qing and Yu Linglong and said sternly, "I'll deal with you later!"

The door of the carriage opened and a handsome young man got out.

As soon as he saw him, Butler Man immediately became respectful: "Miss Yu's visit really brings honor to our humble residence. Miss Yu is already waiting in the courtyard, please follow me."

Yu Qingxi nodded, and glanced at Changqing and Yu Linglong beside him with a curious look.

She asked, "Butler Man, who are these two?"

The butler replied with disdain: "Two ungrateful lowly people pretended to be my young lady's friends. I am going to have their legs broken!"

Just then, Que Zhihe walked out from the door, followed by the guard Yan Yong.

When she heard what Butler Man said, she frowned slightly and said, "Butler Man, whose legs are you going to break?"

"It's these two untouchables..." Butler Man suddenly stopped talking halfway. He heard the dissatisfaction in Que Zhihe's tone.

He quickly apologized with a smile and said, "Miss, calm down. I will drive them away right away."

Que Zhihe said angrily: "They are my friends!"

Butler Man stopped awkwardly, not knowing what to do.

Que Zhihe continued, "Butler Man, when did we start judging people's character by their clothes? I remember that you were also born in a poor family, why do you look down on people from a poor family now? My father often said that one should not forget his roots even if he started from humble beginnings. How much do you remember now?"

Butler Man's face turned pale, but he still bowed his head and said, "Miss is right, I will remember it."

After saying that, he stepped aside and stopped talking.

Yu Qingxi, who was standing next to them, turned his gaze to Chang Qing and Yu Linglong and looked at them with a curious look.

"Sister Qingxi, this is Mr. Zhang! Don't look at his young age, he is very capable!" Que Zhihe introduced the two.

"Mr. Zhang, this is Yu Qingxi, a businessman, I guess." Que Zhihe introduced Chang Qing again.

Yu Qingxi looked at Yu Linglong, but Yu Linglong had a slightly cold expression and didn't say anything.

Chang Qing just nodded to Yu Qingxi without much reaction. Instead, he walked towards Butler Man with a slightly cold expression, kicked him against the wall and said:

"A person who cannot even recognize himself is no better than a stray dog ​​on the roadside."

After saying that, he walked into the house.

Yu Qingxi and Que Zhihe were both shocked by this. Seeing Changqing walking inside, they came to their senses and hurriedly led the way.

Butler Man held his stomach and gritted his teeth, his face revealing a vicious look, his eyes flickering, and no one knew what he was thinking.

The courtyard was large and ancient. After many twists and turns, they arrived at a large courtyard. Que Zhihe asked everyone to sit on the stone benches in the courtyard and ordered the servants to prepare tea and cakes.

After everyone sat down, Que Zhihe spoke first, "The soap was given to my family's shop in town to sell, but the price of ten taels per piece discouraged many people, and now there are only nearly sixty pieces left."

Upon hearing the sales situation, Chang Qing frowned slightly and was not very satisfied with the result.

Seeing that Chang Qing was not happy, Que Zhihe quickly explained: "This is also the reason why I asked Sister Qingxi to come here. Sister Qingxi has her own business alliance. And she has a business building in the Imperial City, where there are many dignitaries. I believe that the sales in the Imperial City will be very fast."

Yu Qingxi looked at the young man in front of him with some suspicion.

Although the boy has a bookish air, he looks like a child who grew up in an ordinary farming family.

But she didn't ask any more questions and just listened quietly to their conversation.

After listening to Que Zhihe's explanation, Yu Qingxi nodded and said, "I can let the store sell it on my behalf, but... I need 30% of the profit."

Changqing pondered for a while, and an idea emerged in his mind.

The sky gradually brightened, and as noon approached, the discussion finally came to an end.

After careful consideration, Changqing proposed a new plan.

He decided to give the soap formula to Yu Qingxi, and have her business alliance produce and sell it.

According to this plan, they will produce two kinds of soaps: one is high-end soap, made from precious and fragrant flower powder, produced by Changqing, and the selling price is still ten taels per piece;

The other type is ordinary soap, which uses ordinary floral scent as the fragrance. Yu Qingxi can make it himself and it is sold for fifty copper coins per piece.

In terms of profit distribution, Changqing only took 30% of the profits, 10% was given to Que Zhihe, and the remaining 60% belonged to Yu Qingxi.

In addition, Changqing also gave 400 bars of high-end soap to Yu Qingxi.

At the same time, he made another suggestion: "I still have some tea here, I wonder if I can sell it in your business alliance?"

Yu Qingxi asked, "Master Zhang, can you make tea?"

Changqing nodded and took out the roasted tea leaves from the package.

Although the tea leaves looked dry and black, Yu Qingxi and Que Zhihe frowned slightly.

Seeing the reactions of the two, Chang Qing smiled calmly: "Don't look at the appearance of these tea leaves now, the truth will be revealed after they are brewed."

Yu Linglong didn't like drinking tea, so she picked up a piece of cake with her hands and tasted it slowly.

Although his expression didn't look very satisfied, he didn't say anything.

The servants quickly prepared hot water.

As the aroma of tea began to waft around, the tea leaves gradually returned to their original appearance.

The tea is a turquoise green in color, which is very pleasing to the eye.

Yu Qingxi and Que Zhihe took a sip and the tea flowed in their mouths.

It tastes slightly bitter at first, but it is extremely sweet when you savor it carefully.

Both of them showed expressions of enjoyment on their faces, and it was obvious that they also knew how to appreciate tea.

"This tea..." The two looked at each other, but couldn't find the right words to describe the unique taste.

Chang Qing gently twisted the lid of the teapot and said, "This tea is called 'Morning Gentleman', which means that all things in the morning are the king."

Yu Qingxi asked in surprise: "Master Zhang, can this tea really be sold in my business building?"

Chang Qing nodded, thought for a moment and then said, "You decide the price. However, there is only so much of this kind of tea in a year, so don't sell it cheaply."

He paused for a moment and continued, "I will give all my profits to Que Zhihe. She will help me build a few schools for poor families, which will be used for expenses."

Yu Qingxi originally regarded Changqing as just a young but smart businessman.

But now, there was a hint of appreciation and emotion in her eyes.

She thought to herself, "Such young people understand the principle of putting the people first, while those in high positions only fight for their own selfish interests. If my country is full of young people like this, why worry about the country not prospering?"

Yu Qingxi looked at the young man in front of him and suddenly realized: "At such a young age, he has done such things. Isn't he the gentleman of the morning!" Thinking of this.

She said, "I have some influence in the provincial government, and I can help the construction of the Poor School go more smoothly."

Chang Qing originally thought that establishing a school for poor families would encounter many difficulties. After all, breaking traditional concepts would be resisted by many people.

But now with Yu Qingxi's guarantee, the heavy stone in his heart finally fell a little.

With this thought in mind, he stood up and thanked Yu Qingxi.
