Ye Yui said: "I won't hide it from you. I just received the news yesterday that my father left for Suzhou. I'm afraid that my father is personally leading this bidding, so you have little chance of winning."
"How big is it if not too big?"
"Maybe only 10% at most, Fu, sister, I can't help you. I originally thought it was a sure thing, but I didn't expect something to happen suddenly."
Xie Fu smiled: "Sister Yui, it's too early to say I'm sorry now."
Ye Yui said: "I know my father's personality too well. Guanxi will not work. If you want to succeed in the bidding, you can only fight for strength. Obviously you have no strength at all, and you are a layman in this field."
How could Mr. Xie be willing to let the cooked duck fly away? He smiled and said, "It's true that I'm a layman, but I still have an expert like you, Sister Yui."
Ye Yui asked back: "What about strength?"
Before Xie Fu could speak, Ye Yui smiled and said: "He Qing is a big cloth merchant in Suzhou and has some strength, but no matter how powerful she is, she is just an ordinary businessman, and your opponents are Zhu Clan and Li Clan.
, the huge network of connections between the two families is beyond your imagination.”
Xie Fu secretly thought that it seemed that Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Gu, and Mrs. Zhang had to participate. With these three powerful people as his backers, he was equivalent to having the connections of these three families.
Ye Yui smiled and said, "I wanted to tell you yesterday, but seeing how excited you were, I didn't say anything."
Xie Fuxiao asked: "Then why do you say it again now?"
"There is going to be a war soon, can you not make it clear?"
Xie Fu smiled and said, "Then let's make it clearer."
Ye Yuiyi took out a stack of bidding documents and said: "There are rules in the industry. I want to explain the bidding process clearly to you."
"The first is qualifications. You need to have a letter of recommendation from a relevant person. I have taken care of this for you, so you don't need to worry about it."
Xie Fu nodded.
Ye Yui continued: "The second is the guarantee deposit."
Xie Fu said in surprise: "You still need a guarantee?"
"Of course, for such a large-scale business, the guarantee deposit is not only a reflection of financial strength, but it can also restrain the general grain dealer."
"Sister Yui, please continue."
"The starting standard is fifty thousand taels. Of course, the more, the better. My suggestion is one hundred thousand taels. On the premise that it is not too low, more financial resources should be reserved for war."
One hundred thousand taels! After seeing the silver mountain, Xie Fu already had a clear understanding of the number one hundred thousand taels.
"The third is development ideas, which involve the national economy and people's livelihood. This is also what my father values most."
Xie Fu asked: "Sister Yui, don't you know your father's tendency?"
Ye Yui smiled and said: "Taking from the people and using it for the people is his general tendency. Everyone can just talk about empty words. The key is practical measures. It has always been his wish to have the world full of warehouses."
Xie Fu praised: "The world is full of warehouses, and your ambition is admirable."
Xie Fu has experienced plague and famine and understands that at critical moments, a handful of rice can mean a life.
Ye Yui said: "In this bid, in addition to clearly stating the development of many convenient grain routes on land and waterways in Jiangnan East Road, it also promises to build charity warehouses in many places on Jiangnan East Road after winning the bid."
"Since the establishment of charity warehouses in the Sui Dynasty, this kind of temporary relief measure dedicated to grains can greatly alleviate post-disaster famine, and the addition of private warehouses can effectively make up for the shortcomings and lag of relying solely on official warehouses for relief."
Xie Fu understands this principle and can form a network by dividing and dispersing it, so that he can provide timely and local relief. For example, the people are starving, but it takes half a month to arrive from the official warehouse, and the people have long since starved to death. This shows that he can provide timely relief.
The importance of reaching the ground.
He couldn't help but praise: "Sister Yui, you are so good. I have to admire you for being able to come up with such a move. This is just right for me. Officials take it as their own to benefit the people. This
Businessmen must also take it as their own responsibility to benefit the people, rather than simply pursuing profits."
Ye Yui smiled: "This is my father's idea. It's not something that a little girl like me can think of. I just copied it according to his idea. When he sees your bid, he will definitely scream - and
I agree with you."
Xie Fu praised: "Your Majesty is admirable."
Ye Yui said: "Don't just admire him. If you become the general grain dealer of Jiangnan East Road, you need to take the lead and lead the entire local grain merchants of Jiangnan East Road to vigorously develop this initiative and develop the temporary relief measures into a normal emergency mechanism."
, As a result, in the first few years, not only will you not make any money, you will also have to lose a lot of money."
Xie Fu said with a smile: "That's a bad statement. It all depends on manpower. Building a charity warehouse will also increase my grain storage capacity. If God has mercy on me, if there are no disasters in the past few years, I will definitely make a lot of money."
Ye Jieyi said: "You are overthinking it. Since it is a charity warehouse, it is naturally used exclusively for grain production and cannot be touched at all."
Xie Fu smiled: "I'm overthinking, rules are dead, people are alive. If I can't make money, how can I fill up the charity warehouse? The charity warehouse is empty, so special use of food is just an empty talk.
It all depends on people. The key lies in how to adapt and what the original intention is. If people’s hearts are not ancient, no matter how good the rules are, they will be in vain.”
After Ye Yui thought for a while, she said to Xie Fu: "Fu, you have a very sharp mind. My father just refuses to change."
What she wants to convey to Xie Fu is that you cannot let him know your thoughts.
"No one is perfect."
"Fu, please read the content of your bid document first and understand it clearly. It will be convenient for me to talk to you slowly."
A box of documents would give ordinary people a headache just looking at it, but Xie Fu himself likes to read, and the more he reads, the more interested he becomes. However, it involves a level of knowledge that he has never been involved in before.
During this period, Su Qianqian came twice, hoping that Xie Fu could take them out for a walk.
The younger Ye Yui was like a steady sister and told Su Qianqian not to disturb Xie Fu.
Among the four sisters, although Cui Yourong is in charge of the overall situation, it is the shrewd Ye Yui who often comes up with ideas.
Near dusk, Tantai Heqing came to Xie's house and brought the two of them pastries made by Gu Xianting himself.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This made the greedy Su Qianqian extremely happy.
How to put it this way, Su Qianqian is delicious just like a man who is lustful and likes beautiful women. When a man sees a beautiful woman, he can't help drooling, but Su Qianqian will also drool when seeing delicious food.
As soon as the cakes were put on the table, Su Qianqian was the first to taste one. After just one bite, her whole body became rigid and motionless. Her big eyes were bigger than a bull's eye, but she felt a huge shock both physically and mentally.
.
Ye Yui looked at Su Qianqian who was motionless in surprise, and a thought flashed through her mind - she had the absurd suspicion that Tantai Heqing had poisoned the cakes.
Su Qianqian suddenly became alert and blurted out: "It's so delicious!"
Ye Yui breathed a sigh of relief and said angrily: "Lao San, what are you doing?"
"Wow...it's so beautiful, I'd rather live ten years shorter!"
Su Qianqian ate in her mouth, her eyes were wet, but she was crying while eating, which made Tantai Heqing dumbfounded: "Sister Qianqian?"
Su Qianqian chewed something in her mouth and stammered: "It's so... delicious, I can't put it into words..."
Ye Yui was also very curious. She knew that Su Qianqian was greedy, but this was the first time that she cried after eating, and asked: "Is it really so delicious?"
Su Qianqian replied hesitantly: "You'll know if you taste it yourself."
Ye Yui reached out and took a piece. Su Qianqian suddenly realized something and brought the whole plate in front of her.
Ye Yui was very disdainful: "Tah! Did I steal something from you?"
"No, but it's not certain this time."
Ye Yui took a bite, her expression was slightly dazed, and then she chewed slowly and gracefully, as if she was savoring calligraphy and painting.
After we finished eating together, we realized in hindsight, "He Qing, I have never eaten such delicious cakes. Where did you buy this cake?"
Tantai Heqing smiled and said: "You can't buy this pastry. It was made by my girl from Xianting."
Ye Yui thoughtfully said: "How should I put it... The various changes are endlessly memorable, such as the joy of men and women bringing great joy to people's body and mind... and like hunger bringing people a full sense of satisfaction.
, this is probably the highest realm of gourmet food..."
Tantai Heqing blushed slightly when Ye Yui said that it was like the joy between a man and a woman. Sister Yui's metaphor was a bit exaggerated.
Su Qianqian said at this time: "It's more touching than the joy between a man and a woman! This is a resonance and shock to the soul."
Only then did Tantai Heqing notice that Su Qianqian was actually crying.
"He Qing, can you please come and meet this young lady?"
Tantai Heqing nodded in agreement.
Ye Yui reached out to take another piece, and there were two pastries left. Su Qianqian moved quickly, taking a bite of each piece, and then asked: "I've already bitten it, do you want more?"
Tantai Heqing was a little shocked. He didn't expect that Su Qianqian, a noble lady, behaved so childishly.
Ye Yui smiled and said, "I can't bear it if I don't snatch it from you."
Seeing Tantai Heqing's expression of surprise, Ye Yui leaned closer to Tantai Heqing and whispered: "The third child's taste for food is different from others. How can I put it... It's like suddenly taking aphrodisiac. It feels like
It's much stronger than ordinary people, don't worry, her pleasure in enjoying food is much stronger than ours, so don't show He Qing to others."
Tantai He responded affectionately: "That's it." Just like her body that is afraid of pain, if she can't stand a little pain, others will think she is being pretentious.
"By the way, I brought something from Xuandanzhai. I wonder if the two sisters like it."
Tantai Heqing said as he took the clothes he brought to the table.
Su Qianqian was a little depressed and not interested in these clothes at all.
It looked like it should be clothing, but Madam Ye Yui had never seen it before. Curiously, she pointed at a silk tube and asked: "He Qing, what is this?"
"These are leg socks."
"Leg socks?"
"Wearing the ones on the legs."
Ye Yui was both curious and interested: "Why do you need to wear socks on your legs?"
Tantai Heqing asked: "Then why do you need to wear socks on your feet?"
Ye Yuiyi was speechless.
Tantai Heqing explained: "Usually we wear plain pants under our skirts. No matter how good the silk is, it will always be stuffy and hot in the summer. Putting on these socks will make it feel better, and you will be very light when walking."
, as...as..."
Ye Yui glanced at the socks and said, "It's like being without attachment."
