Entering February, the cloth shop has already begun to make profits.
Not only some, but many.
It was different from the past when Su Nianyun renovated the Chen family's cloth shop. At that time, they sold silk and satin and had a buy-one-get-one-free campaign.
Now, the cloth shop has completely turned into an ordinary coarse cloth business. The profit of coarse cloth is already small, so it is not cost-effective to buy one and get one free.
And since she did that last time, many cloth shops in Beijing have imitated her and launched a program of buying one piece of cloth and giving one piece of cloth free.
This kind of thing is no longer new or attractive.
But despite this, Su Nianyun still made the cloth shop make money.
As the weather gradually warmed up, more and more people were cutting cloth to make new clothes.
Secondly, Su Nianyun invited many weavers to weave cloth, and also improved the loom, making the cloth stronger and more durable than before.
Su Nianyun asked people to wear clothes made of new cloth, and went around to places where work was often required. While working, he did not forget to praise his clothes for their strength and durability.
Ordinary people want their clothes to be strong and easy to wear, and it is best to wear them as long as possible.
You must know that food, clothing, housing and transportation should be put first.
In Beijing, there are always few wealthy families and many ordinary families.
Everyone wants to buy cheap, affordable, and easy-to-use fabrics. With the praise of those who often come out to work, and seeing that their clothes are not easily worn out after doing rough and dirty work, many people are interested in Su Nianyun's clothes.
Bu became curious.
Ordinary people go to the cloth shop to buy fabrics, and when a small number of people gather together to make a large number of people, it is also a big business.
The more cloth sold, the more weavers Su Nianyun hired.
In this way, half of the woven cloth is sold and half is stored.
When the cloth shop was so busy, the Fu family's medicinal materials store gradually began to gain some momentum, but the medicinal materials were not as profitable as the cloth shop in the early stage.
Zhao Chengji was quite satisfied that Su Nianyun was able to make money in just one month.
In Wangyue Tower.
Zhao Chengji said to Fu Ming, "Fu Ming, I have said before that I believe in your vision for business and people."
"The Eighteenth Prince is ridiculously complimentary. Speaking of which, it is the Queen Mother who taught Nianyun well."
Fu Ming said, "I have always only heard about the empress dowager's glorious past. After Nianyun was raised by her side for three years, what I heard and heard is different!"
For some reason, when the people next to him heard Fu Ming praise Su Nianyun so much, their hands holding the wine glass tightened.
"The Queen Mother did teach her very well..." Zhao Chengji's eyes suddenly became distant.
Compared with the timid figure in the palace at that time, and the figure strategizing among business affairs at this time, it is indeed an earth-shaking change.
The Queen Mother, when she was in the palace, was a person who kept a low profile and bided her time, and then she supported her father all the way to his current position.
It was hard for him to imagine what the Tanglin Parliament would be like now without the wise Queen Mother behind such a father.
Therefore, seeing that Su Nianyun pretended to be flawless in the palace, but was as comfortable as a fish out of the palace, it was indeed a good lesson from the Queen Mother.
According to Fu Ming's previous experience in business, in order for a newly opened shop to be profitable, it would take at least several months or half a year.
A few ordinary cloth shops actually started to make profits in the second month after opening, which is really impressive.
Such a person should be used by him.
There's just one thing he doesn't understand.
If she wanted to escape from the strict palace through marriage, she could choose to marry someone like Xiao Changfeng. After all, this was the marriage that the Queen Mother fully supported, but why did she choose to marry that good-for-nothing member of the Chen family.
Zhao Chengji looked at Xiao Changfeng subconsciously.
Xiao Changfeng also noticed the look in his eyes. He looked at Zhao Chengji strangely, "Eighteenth Prince, why are you looking at me like this?"
"Xiao Changfeng, Zhao Chengji said, you were really deceived by Su Nianyun when you refused the marriage when the Queen Mother mentioned it, weren't you?"
After all, at that time, Su Nianyun was timid, dark and thin, and Xiao Changfeng, who looked like a god of war, would definitely look down on her.
However, this was all the perception at that time. When anyone sees Su Nianyun now, they will say that they were blind at the time and mistakenly mistook the gems for fish eyes.
"I..." When Zhao Chengji asked this question again, Xiao Changfeng clenched the wine glass in his hand tighter, "I really didn't see it clearly at that time..."
Sure enough, Fu Ming nodded.
He said that Xiao Changfeng did have some thoughts about Su Nianyun, and he had long since regretted it.
But unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's all because Nian Yun pretended to be so good!"
Both Fu Ming and Zhao Chengji thought that Xiao Changfeng was talking about not seeing through Su Nianyun's true face.
Only Xiao Changfeng knew clearly that what he was talking about was not the true appearance. What he meant had no other meaning at all, just the true appearance.
Seeing that Su Nianyun was mentioned, Xiao Changfeng's expression was not very good, so Fu Ming changed the subject.
"Eighteenth Prince, let's not talk about this anymore. How is the situation in the palace recently?"
For some reason, he didn't like the way these two people were praising Su Nianyun.
Fu Ming glanced at Xiao Changfeng meaningfully, without revealing his little thoughts, but followed Xiao Changfeng and looked at Zhao Chengji.
After all, he is not the only one who is inquiring about news in the palace. There is also Su Nianyun who asks him for news every day.
After he repeatedly confirmed that the other party did not know about their secret relationship with the Eighteenth Prince, he began to tell Su Nianyun everything he knew.
Because Su Nianyun is very good at deducing some changes in business from some changes in the palace.
Of course, in fact, neither the changes in the harem nor the court had much impact on their medicine shop and cloth shop.
However, when he said this, Su Nianyun gave him a hard look.
"Fu Ming, even if it is useless to your business, it is still somewhat useful to my business!"
Su Nianyun said, "In addition to cooperating with you in the medicinal materials store, you have your own business, and I also have a lot of business. It won't affect them all, won't it affect them all?"
Fu Ming thought about it, so he gradually began to be influenced by Su Nianyun in his thoughts and actions, and began to obey her words.
Seeing that Fu Ming was concerned about the situation in the palace, Zhao Chengji spoke to them without reservation.
"Concubine Li has noticed that her health is failing. She will probably find a way to bring down the queen and the prince before she dies..."
These two people are his confidants. They are one and the same. Of course, he wants to tell them the latest changes in the palace so that they can be prepared to deal with it.
"This is Li Fei's final blow. She will definitely drag the queen with her to support her until she dies!" Xiao Changfeng saw Li Fei through.
She was already favored by the emperor, and with the pain of losing her son, it was normal for her to become more extreme.
"So..." Fu Ming shuddered, "The wind in the palace is really going to blow up this time!"
"What we have to do is to light a fire, and then let the fire take advantage of the wind..." Zhao Chengji said leisurely.
At that time, the prince who has been bullying him will step down in embarrassment, and he will pay him back the humiliation he has suffered over the years.
Zhao Chengzhi, who did not know that his position as the crown prince would be lost, was currently in the East Palace and was angry because of the trouble caused by the two concubines of the Nangong family on the one side and the other side.
Of course, this anger is not directed at Nangong Xing, but at Nangong Yue.
