Xu Jing didn't know if Pang Xi was behind it. Not long ago, there was a vigorous search, but in the past few days, he suddenly disappeared, and it was rare for him to sleep peacefully for a few days.
However, Xu Jing was not idle either. He asked someone to inquire about Liu Zhang's movements. As a result, he did not find out anything about Liu Zhang, but he did find out some rumors about other aspects.
——
"Master, this is it."
"Is this what you said it smells like?"
"Sir, it's perfume. It's the same thing as the rouge and gouache."
"I know, but is the sales of this thing really that good?"
"Master, don't underestimate the contents of this small porcelain bottle. I've heard about it a long time ago. I don't know which company shipped good goods from outside the customs these days. Just this small bottle can cost up to eight
From ten-year-old ladies to eight-year-old girls, they all can't put it down."
"Some women don't eat or drink, and they cry and make noises to buy this thing, but the supply of this thing is scarce... I heard that there is only one shop selling this thing. When I asked them where it came from, they didn't tell me.
Said it was confidential..."
"But, sir, just having a wide sales volume is nothing. The key is, I heard that the profit of this thing can rival that of Shu Brocade."
"What did you say?
?”
Xu Jing really couldn't sit still when he heard that this small porcelain bottle containing some unknown perfume could have economic benefits like Shu Brocade.
"Sir, please don't get excited. We only heard about this profit. The rouge shop that sells perfume is only open at night. I'll find out if it's true or not."
"But, if nothing else, based on the hot scene we saw with our own eyes yesterday, if this thing makes money, it will definitely make money."
The servant who was kneeling on the ground said to Xu Jing seriously.
He was holding a small porcelain vase in his hand. Seeing Xu Jing reaching out for it, he handed it over respectfully.
Xu Jing held the small porcelain bottle and looked left and right, looking around and around. She really couldn't figure out what was so magical about this thing.
The servant quickly explained:
"Master, this is not for viewing. Just pull out the stopper from the bottle and put a drop or two on your hand. Then you will naturally understand the magical function of this thing."
Xu Jing was hesitant, but seeing the sincerity in the servant's eyes, he sighed and followed the instructions.
To be honest, Xu Jing had no interest in caring about other companies' profitable goods at first, but when he thought that he had agreed to Pang Xi's acquisition, although he would get a large amount of money, the money in his hands would not increase... a steady stream of
Making money is the long-term solution.
So although Xu Jing had made up his mind not to touch Shu brocade anymore and planned to get out of this quagmire, Xu Jing had no intention of just hanging on to his family wealth and waiting to die.
There is no sense of accomplishment for him to live comfortably by himself. What he wants is to revive the glory of the old Xu family, pass it on from generation to generation, and live a prosperous and even richer life.
No, instead of asking about Liu Zhang, the servant did find out about a new gadget that has become a huge topic in the city recently.
perfume.
Xu Jing pulled out the cork and still muttered, "Is this thing really that amazing?"
While carefully tilting the porcelain bottle, two drops of emerald green liquid dripped out.
In fact, there is no need to drip it on the body. The moment he uncorked the bottle, Xu Jing felt a refreshing aroma rushing straight to his forehead.
And after these drops of emerald green liquid were dropped on the hands, the aroma spread completely.
"Master, do you smell it?
Just this smell, it smells much better than that rouge gouache, I can’t blame people for rushing to buy it.”
The servant sniffed the air excitedly and showed a satisfied smile.
Xu Jing also changed from being suspicious just now to being shocked now.
"Really, when I go to the market on weekdays, the last thing I want to take is the road full of rouge and gouache shops. It's okay to say that there is only one shop, but the mixed smells of several shops not only choke my nose, but also make my eyes open a little.
It won’t open…and this thing, oh, this thing is really amazing.”
Although Xu Jing had rested well these days, it did not mean that he had left behind the fatigue of the previous few days. As soon as the fragrance rushed into his mind, he felt extremely relaxed. After a while, he felt more energetic.
A good night's sleep is more than enough.
"Good stuff, really good stuff! You go and inquire tonight and ask if the store is willing to sell the formula of this stuff. As long as the price is right, when Pang Pang pays over, I will definitely buy this stuff!"
"
"Okay, don't worry, we will definitely be able to get some news for you tonight."
The servant agreed with a smile, but he was thinking about other things in his heart.
Although the Xu Mansion is still glamorous now, Xu Jing was so panicked a few days ago that he was ready to run away. A lot of servants and servants were sent away. Xu Jing who was willing to stay by his side did not promise any reward, so he could
He said he really couldn't care less about his boss.
But in the end, there were still two people who stayed. One was the concierge. The concierge was too old to walk, so he relied on Xu Jing's meager salary to support the family's expenses.
In addition, the servant was himself. Speaking of which, he was not a famous person. But before he was to be sent away that day, he accidentally saw his master sneaking through the door in the morning and returning to the house with a letter.
Then I saw a faint firelight inside the door.
The servant was not in a hurry to leave and continued to observe the next day. Sure enough, Xu Jing still did the same thing the next morning.
Only this time, after Xu Jing returned to the house, the servant followed quietly behind him. Although Xu Jing could not hear clearly what he was saying to himself inside the door, at least one thing was certain, Xu Jing would definitely find a way out.
.
This guy had no idea about his next job, so he wanted to block it and stay by Xu Jing's side. If Xu Jing turned around, he would be able to get the job successfully.
After a while, things really developed as he expected.
Xu Jing didn't panic anymore, but he never found anyone to deal with the debris at home. He, the only servant left at home, became Xu Jing's most trusted subordinate.
Now he was helping Xu Jing do some errands, but Xu Jing had implicitly promised him that he would give him a management position when everything was done.
All in all, he felt that he was destined to prosper and his mood improved accordingly.
"Hey, wait, Xiao Wen, don't leave yet."
"What's wrong, Master?
Do you have anything else to say?"
The servant was called Xiao Wen, and when he was about to go out, Xu Jing suddenly stopped him.
"It's nothing, Xiao Wen, let me ask you, you won't disappear suddenly, right?"
"Hey, sir, what are you talking about? But you didn't drive us away forcefully, so I'm extremely grateful. It's Xiao Wen's convincing that I can be favored by you, sir."
"Okay... With your words, I feel relieved."
"Hey, let's go out then."
"Go ahead."
Xiaowen showed Xu Jing the door, and the smile on his face turned into a sneer.
He murmured in his heart, even thinking that Xu Jing was nothing more than that.
"Exactly, I just relied on my reputation to get into a few corrupt officials. I didn't rely on the help of others to get where I am today. But you'd better trust me a little more. Whether I can prosper or not depends on you."
The fact is that everyone is just getting what they need. How can an ungrateful guy like Xu Jing have loyal people who follow him wholeheartedly?
