Tian Minyan returned to her room, and Bai Mei was already waiting there. After being out for two months, she seemed to have grown taller again, her skin was white and moist, and her appearance became more beautiful.
"I thought you went to work to be busy, but when you came back you were dark and thin, and the longer you grew, the more beautiful you became. Are you here to play around?" Tian Minyan walked around Bai Mei and praised her.
Bai Mei's face darkened, and her original excitement at seeing Tian Minyan disappeared. She rolled her eyes and said, "Girl, are you jealous?"
Tian Minyan was stunned and curled her lips, this damn woman is really not fun, she is just pretending to be shy.
"It's really not fun." She muttered, pouted on the chair and said, "Sit down and talk."
Bai Mei was not shy, she sat down generously, took a serious look at Tian Minyan, and suddenly said: "Girl, you're tanned."
This time it was Tian Minyan's turn to turn dark. She touched her cheeks with both hands reflexively, and took out a small mirror to take a look at it: "It's true. The sun has been shining brightly these days. You have to use it."
Apply pearl powder on your face."
Bai Mei knew very well that Tian Minyan was ugly. After hearing about the ridiculously expensive pearl powder, she twitched the corner of her mouth and said nothing. She just picked up Tian Minyan's small mirror and saw herself clearly in it.
Startled.
"Why is this mirror so clear?"
"This is called glass. It is a Western object. It was brought as tribute. Qi Shiqi gave it to me." Tian Minyan was very proud. This was a gift from Qi Shiqi before he left. Thinking of his awkward look, she felt funny.
But this is really a good item. She doesn't like using the bronze mirror, which produces a blurry shadow. It's like a mirror, and the pores can be seen very clearly.
When Qi Shiqi threw the mirror to her, she was very surprised when she saw it. You must know that in this era, there is no such thing as glass that can be seen everywhere in modern times. Although there is also colored glaze, there is no lens made into a mirror. Listen.
She was not surprised that he came from the West, and even encouraged Qi Shiqi to learn the skills of making glass so that he could start a glass business in the future.
"Western things are really amazing." Bai Mei looked at them again and again, with admiration in her eyes.
Tian Minyan said: "If we burn glass in the future, we will also make one for you."
"Can a girl do it?" Bai Mei was even more surprised, looking at Tian Minyan as if she were a monster.
Tian Minyan was a little embarrassed and said: "This is not easy to do, and I don't know this technique. I have to learn it, but it is probably similar to Liuli. After all, Liuli's method is more complicated than glass."
Bai Mei let out an ooh after hearing this, looked at it and then put it down.
Tian Minyan no longer dwelled on the topic and asked her about her situation.
"Jiangnan is indeed a prosperous land, with capable people emerging in large numbers. Girl, my horizons have really been opened this time. The colors of the clothes are much prettier than those here. On this trip, we found ten weavers and two dyers.
Master Cloth and Embroiderer also found five." When Bai Mei talked about what she saw in Jiangnan, her eyes lit up, and there was no trace of the hatred and ruthlessness she had back then.
So this person should go out so that his horizons can be broadened!
"The people in the south of the Yangtze River are naturally good. Even the girls there are much prettier and graceful than those here. Those places are truly good places to raise people." Tian Minyan sounded very yearning for it. If she hadn't left
No, she also wants to travel around the world. Jiangnan is so beautiful, so she really wants to go.
"Girl, now that the manpower is ready, are we going to open a weaving workshop next? Should we open it in the county or the state capital?" After Bai Mei finished speaking, she looked at Tian Minyan and asked.
Tian Minyan stroked her forehead and said: "Now the weaving workshop is not only our Tian family's business, the prince also owns a share, and the prince has sent people to the Western Regions to learn spinning and weaving cotton. When they come back, we will train the weaver first.
Okay, once we officially open it, as for the location, let’s open it in the state capital.”
"The state capital?" Bai Mei frowned and said, "We don't have many connections in the state capital, I'm afraid..."
Tian Minyan nodded with a smile and said: "You don't know, right? Our family has received another reward from the emperor. The emperor gave us a house in the state capital. Even if you go there, you can have a place to stay. Moreover, the state capital also has our business. Cheng Zhong
I’ve already gone over there to take care of things.”
As for connections, there is nothing to worry about. With their family relying on the prince’s thigh, what kind of connections do they need? Even if they don’t have any, there is also the head of Hui’an County. Now even Magistrate Zheng and others have given them some respect, so
There is no problem opening it in the state capital.
Moreover, business cannot be limited to just one place, which will be extremely detrimental to future development. If you don’t have connections, just open up slowly, and penetration over a long period of time will eventually get in.
Along Baimei Road, people also heard that their master had accepted the reward, and they nodded and said: "Well, the prosperity of the state capital is where our weaving workshop is. Although the competition is great, as long as our cloth is outstanding, we will gradually become more prosperous."
There will be a place for it.”
Tian Minyan smiled and raised her eyebrows: "After going out this time, my vision is indeed different."
Bai Mei's pretty face turned slightly red, and she gave her an angry look and said, "The girl's mouth is still as unforgiving as ever."
Tian Minyan chuckled, saying that with three hundred and sixty-five lines, one would be number one. It would definitely be good to be in a unique business, but even if there is no such thing, as long as one is ingenious, there is no need to worry about not being able to gain sales.
According to Tian Minyan's thinking, their weaving workshop will never make money before cotton comes out. Cotton is their real focus, as well as patterns. Her weaving workshop not only weaves cloth, but also makes finished products.
, she doesn’t worry about whether she can live up to her name.
"Girl, what should we name our weaving workshop?" Bai Mei asked again.
Tian Minyan pursed her lips and thought for a while, then said: "Let the prince take the initiative." After all, this is a joint venture business, and she also wants to ask Qi Shiqi for his opinion. If he has no idea, she will think about it again, well, it's simple.
Beautiful, Buyifang seems to be good.
"Girl! You'd better keep the prince alone!" Bai Mei said sharply.
Tian Minyan was startled, looked at her inexplicably, and blinked. When she read out the name she just said, she couldn't help but laugh, it turned out that she had read it out, but isn't Buyi Fang good? She thought it was pretty good.
Why.
Bai Mei slandered, you are just a scumbag.
The two talked for a while, and Ji Xiang walked in, blessed the two of them, and then said to Tian Minyan: "Girl, the young man from the Lou family has sent someone to deliver souvenirs and posts. He is in the living room."
Tian Minyan frowned and clicked her tongue. Why is this Lou Shaoqing so angry? She threw her hands away in disgust and said, "Send him away. I'm busy and have no time."
Ever since the news that their family received another imperial reward spread, Lou Shaoqing has sent gifts and messages every now and then to visit her. Tian Minyan has no time to kill. She really doesn't like a man who is blatantly trying to set her sights.
.
Just think about it, people are obviously coming for you and want to take advantage of you, but you can still remain indifferent as if nothing has happened? This is simply like a stick in your throat, and you won't be happy if you don't pull it out.
Bai Mei frowned and said, "Girl, that Lou Shaoqing seems to be Magistrate Zheng's nephew, right?"
Tian Minyan was stunned for a moment, then she raised her eyebrows and said: "So what? It's not that I'm arrogant and look down on others, but you know what Lou Shaoqing's idea is, he's treating your girl like a cornucopia. I'm not
He said that his idea was wrong. After all, people are selfish, but I don’t like it. Baimei, how can you allow others to sleep soundly under the bed? I don’t like such blatant coveting and scheming. "
Businessmen have business rules. If Lou Shaoqing could do business with her calmly instead of scheming, she might still consider it. After all, there is endless money to be made. If the business wants to grow, it must find a partner.
, she is not the kind of person who is stuck in her ways.
But Lou Shaoqing, he was thinking the wrong way and hadn't thought of this yet. When he thought about it clearly and came back to look for her, she might take on this business partner.
Lou Shaoqing looked at the young boy with a sullen face, holding the white bag in one hand and gently stroking it, and said softly: "Still didn't answer?"
The boy's body trembled slightly and he said softly: "Master, Miss Tian said she is very busy."
Lou Shaoqing remained silent for a long time before he chuckled, but the laughter almost made the young man fall to his knees. The young master was becoming more and more terrifying. The more plain he looked, the more gloomy he felt...
"That's all, go down." Lou Shaoqing waved his hand.
"Master?" The young man was startled, then raised his head and looked at his master. No punishment?
"If Tian Minyan just accepted the post, I would find it strange. Then she is not Tian Minyan! What a pity, what a pity." Lou Shaoqing said.
Standing behind Tian Minyan is the Xian Wang. She has this capital mania. It's a pity. If she could have established a good relationship from the beginning, she might have been able to get some glory. If she had been able to discern pearls back then, the honor would have gone to the Lou family.
Yes.
What a pity, what a pity!
Lou Shaoqing smiled bitterly and shook his head. Looking at the chessboard again, he found himself trapped in a dead end. He made a dead move.
"Is it a dead chess game?" He rubbed his chin, looked at the entire chess game with squinted eyes, and pursed his lips and said, "I thought it was wrong. How could a person like that allow others to scheme? Well, this way is blocked, but it's okay.
Take this way." He dropped the ball again to create a way out, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised.
"Come here, please post again, and I will come to visit you personally." He suddenly shouted, and when the boy was about to go out, he stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, come back, wait a minute."
Yes, you have to wait. Tian Minyan is so smart and he is a businessman. What does a businessman like most? Of course it is profitable. He has to show some trump cards to get on this boat smoothly.
"Go and collect information on all the Tian family's current business and human relations, especially Tian Minyan's preferences."
He had to carefully analyze what kind of business would make Tian Minyan willing to see him and cooperate with him. If he wanted to take a boat, he had to buy a ticket. The Tian family's boat led to a broad road, and he had to take it.
