But Shen Miaozhu did not allow him to hesitate and immediately said, "We will go ahead with my uncle. Big brother, please return to the village quickly to find your uncle and ask him to write a letter to our friends in the prefecture and the capital.

Afterwards, Uncle Qi will bring the letter and pursue us, and then enter the capital."

"Ah?" Shen Xianzhu was confused by her sudden decision. He couldn't even leave the county seat, and she had to go to Beijing again.

"Miaozhu, Uncle Huang's pass only goes as far as the prefectural capital, and the round trip to the capital is eight hundred miles. I won't let you two go."

"Brother, Second Sister wants me and her to go to the capital and consolidate our business there.

The trip to Beijing was completed by my seventh uncle and my uncle.

Of course, if they have other important matters and are not convenient to go..." Before Shen Lingzhu finished her supplement, Huang Zongqi interrupted her and said, "What nonsense are you talking about.

Your grandparents sent me to protect you two, which is the current priority, but you have to explain to me why you have to go to Beijing again.

We are not afraid of sleeping in the open air, but every time we go to Beijing, the cost is not small. It is a place where money is spent everywhere, and sometimes even having money is not enough."

Seventh uncle Shen He, who was present, also expressed his willingness to go as long as his fifth brother sent him.

Shen Lingzhu could probably guess what her senior sister was thinking, but it was still up to her to convince everyone.

Shen Miaozhu took the lead and analyzed with them that once the bellows spread to the provincial capital, it would definitely spread to the capital.

By that time, it might be difficult to apply for a travel permit at the county government office. After all, if my eldest brother is suddenly not allowed to leave the county this time, other members of the Shen family might be restricted from leaving next time.

So I took the opportunity of being in the provincial capital to take my uncle's handwritten letter and ask someone in the provincial capital to issue a pass to enter the capital.

When the time comes, my uncle and seventh uncle will rush to Beijing, find help, and quickly resell the methods of making bellows and rocking chairs.

"Two-pronged approach? That's good. It prevents us from gaining control of the situation in the prefectural capital and then having someone buy a bellows and take it to the capital to spread the news.

Well, we can sell some more in Zhuozhou and Dingxing on the way back." Uncle Huang was a businessman after all, so he quickly got to the point.

He knew very well that the bellows were easy to make, and correspondingly, it was impossible for the Shen family to control it.

"Seventh Brother He, what do you think?" Shen He, who was sent by the uncle of the two children, is also a man with his own ideas.

Shen He thought for a moment and said, "Since we are in Beijing, we should get more and sell them to all the counties and prefectures close to us.

When we return, it would be best if we could also bring Baozhou, Zhending, and Hejian prefectures here at the same time."

Pointing to the fact that they make thousands of dollars and ship them to other places to sell, they are unfamiliar with the place.

Get as much silver as you can to avoid being taken advantage of by clever merchants. "How much is the price for a drawing?"

"Ten taels?" Shen Lingzhu and Shen Miaozhu were not greedy.

But my uncle and seventh uncle shook their heads at the same time: "It's too low. Sell it to a local carpenter and he'll make a living from it."

"I can't ask for fifty. If I meet Manager Lu, I can still afford it, but for people like Feng and Zhang, they can't bear to spend ten taels." It's not that Shen Lingzhu looks down on the latter two, but the scale of the business is there.

Shen Miaozhu said: "Go to the capital and find two or three shops, and ask for around fifty taels for the rocking chair, and twenty to thirty taels in Zhuozhou.

We'll go to Zhending and Hejian Prefectures after we've sold a few things. Anyway, we'll see the actual situation." "I really can't send anyone else to take charge."

People like Xia Xing are too young, and his third uncle and ninth uncle don't look like people who can do business with him. You can't become rich in one bite.

A bird in the hand is worth more than a hundred in the bush. Shen Miaozhu now wants to make some quick money as soon as possible. Only with money can she find out who is preventing her eldest brother from going on a long journey.

Huang Zongqi and Shen He thought it was feasible, and that those willing to pay this price were shops with vision and the ability to produce two things quickly.

After the four of them had reached an agreement, they all looked at Shen Xianzhu. He blinked and said, "It would be great if we could sell them smoothly wherever we go. Bellows are useful all year round.

But traveling back and forth between places not only requires a pass, but also takes time. By the time we arrived in the capital, it was at least early August, and someone would definitely take a fancy to the rocking chair.

But if you go somewhere else and it’s basically late August, are they still willing to buy this?”

Shen Lingzhu said with certainty: "Yes, brother. Reading in a rocking chair next to the fireplace in winter is also very poetic."

Currently, only those who are rich and have free time can afford this thing. The worst that can happen to them is to cover the rocking chair with cotton wool, red felt or something like that.

"Okay, we will set off separately. We must follow our uncle's arrangements on the way, especially Xiao Zhuzi. If anything happens, you must rush forward on your own." Shen Xianzhu was ready to go home now.

Shen Lingzhu repeatedly assured that she was an obedient child, and her senior sister also said that she would keep an eye on her.

"Brother, stop driving the carriage and rent a horse. Remember to bring Seventh Uncle's household registration card.

Uncle, someone has to escort Big Brother back and forth." Shen Lingzhu winked at Huang Zongqi and asked him to pick someone with good skills to follow.

The four or five people chosen by Uncle Huang to escort his niece are considered the top fighters in Shenquan Group.

Shortly after Shen Xianzhu and a guard left on horseback, Shen Lingzhu and her sister also headed towards the provincial capital with two carts of goods.

After receiving the news, Miao Sili couldn't help but re-examine the two little girls of the Shen family. Were they really raised as boys?

If I had known this earlier, I should have stopped the two of them as well. Fortunately, they only had two trucks of goods to transport to the provincial capital.

He didn't know at this moment that Shen Miaozhu had already predicted the difficulties in the future and made arrangements in advance.

Of course, the premise of all this is that my uncle’s friends are capable enough.

Not to mention that Shen Xianzhu rushed back home and was scolded by his mother after telling her the details.

Just to say that Shen Lingzhu and his companions arrived in Daxudian near dusk, and their first choice of accommodation was the Zhenwu Temple where they had lived before.

She was very generous and gave two bellows to be installed, but in the blink of an eye, the senior sister brought down a pair of solid wooden rocking chairs and gave them to Taoist Chen and his master.

Two taels of silver! Shen Lingzhu was heartbroken, but her face was full of smiles. She didn't enjoy the vegetarian meal that night.

But the next morning, after receiving a letter from the temple master, Master Shen Dao, who had asked her uncle to deliver it to the Zhenwu Temple in the capital, she felt that the gift from her senior sister was well worth it.

They could have sent it via the official post, but they asked their uncle to do it instead, and even picked out two high-quality solid wood rocking chairs as gifts, clearly giving their own family an opportunity.

"Uncle, you must seize the opportunity." Shen Lingzhu was very happy.

Huang Zongqi smiled and said, "Wait until I get the pass to enter Beijing, then you can talk about this later."

Just as the uncle and nephew had tied up the goods and were about to leave, Taoist Master Chen had already bought the methods of making rocking chairs and bellows from Shen Miaozhu.

A full twenty taels of official silver.

After leaving, Shen Lingzhu came back to his senses as the morning breeze blew: "Daxudian is so close to the provincial capital. Is the Chen family interested in doing business in the city?"

Shen Miaozhu: "No, the Chen family already has a tofu stall in the city, and it would be convenient to set up a few bellows bamboo chairs to sell it.

Taoist Priest Chen also recommended a carpenter, saying that selling blueprints to him would not be a bad idea.

"What does he want? To find an opponent for himself?" Shen Lingzhu was a little puzzled.
