Chapter 57: Mountains and rain come and the wind fills the building [2]
Originally, this decision would cause the Feng family to lose a lot of money, but it could guarantee the quality of the silk.
For Feng Xizi, the Feng family's brand name is better than anything else. Besides, the Feng family is not short of money, so being able to use money to restore their reputation is the best thing.
This was Feng Xizi's original order, but who knew that the shopkeeper in Tongzhou area would actually become greedy for those second-class silks, and without telling the Feng family, he would sell the second-class silks that had already been priced as first-class silks.
Fearing that the Feng family would know about these silks, he secretly sold the silks to the Dongyang Kingdom by taking advantage of the Feng family's business lifeline in neighboring countries.
After Qiyu investigated this matter, Feng Xizi immediately fell into a sense of crisis.
The first thing I did was to deal with the shopkeeper, and then I ordered the Feng family's trading house in Dongyang to take back the silk circulating on the market at a high price. Most of it was taken back at double or even triple the price, while the other small part went into Dongyang.
In the royal palace of the country.
If something from the Guofeng family went wrong among the Dongyang royal family, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Feng Xizi had no choice but to discuss countermeasures with Qiu Yu to find a way to get back the inferior silk from the Dongyang Palace.
The two of them discussed several ways, but found that it was not feasible, so they fell into a dilemma. When Mo Zhilan walked into the study, he saw this scene: Feng Xi Zi's purple fingers were desperately turning the golden abacus, while Qi Yu kept moving.
Turning over the flying pigeon letter returned from Dongyang Guofengjia Trading Company.
"asshole!"
Feng Xizi cursed and slammed a ledger in his hand to the ground, "I have offered three times the price to purchase all the Feng family silk in Dongyang, but only less than half of it has been recovered!"
"Miss, please calm down." Qiyu raised her head and shook the letter in her hand, "A letter from Dongyang Guofeng Family Tianzi Trading Company. Today someone sent three pieces of second-class silk."
"Only three pieces?!" Feng Xizi slapped his palm on the table and gritted his teeth and said: "Counting these three pieces, there are still eighty pieces missing! Eighty pieces! All these eighty pieces of silk have entered the Dongyang Palace. Feng
At most, people from the family business can only be recruited into the private sector, and those high-ranking officials will not easily sell the Feng family’s silk!"
After saying that, he smashed the table and continued to immerse himself in the abacus.
This scene was clearly seen by Mo Zhilan. He also heard the conversation between Feng Xizi and Qiyu outside the door perfectly. He sighed secretly and walked into the study.
"Zi'er." He called Feng Xizi, but saw that Feng Xizi didn't even pay attention to him this time, as if he didn't hear his voice at all, and continued what he was doing.
Mo Zhilan saw Feng Xi's purple eyebrows furrowed and her forehead even wrinkled. She was nervous and flustered as she had never seen since he met her.
"What happened?"
Mo Zhilan did not ask Feng Xizi, but turned around and asked Qiyu.
Compared to Feng Xizi, Qiyu was completely calm. He knew very well that the person who could solve this problem was right in front of him.
Mo Zhilan is Tianche's imperial uncle, and he holds Tianche's country in his hands. Since ancient times, the two countries have been intersecting with each other, and there have been secret guards coming and going, so naturally there will be people lurking in the Dongyang Kingdom's palace.
Qiyu did not hesitate. After telling Mo Zhilan what happened, she thought again, "There is no need to take the silk back. It's fine if it is burned."
Burned?
Ruined?
Put simply.
Forget about other countries, Dongyang is famous for its poor people and rich country. The top-quality silk produced by the Feng family will definitely become a luxury item valued by the nobles if it enters the Dongyang Palace. It is difficult to get silk from those people.
