Xu Qing sat behind the desk and audited the income and expenditure of the National Business Council during the year.
It has to be said that the ability of the China Business Academy to attract money is indeed not that strong.
Most of the products sold in the Guoshangyuan are unique to this store and cannot be purchased elsewhere, which is equivalent to a monopoly operation.
Of course, there is a more important point, that is, although the Guoshangyuan is not within the bureaucracy of the Chu State, it is a product of the imperial court. It can use the state machinery to develop unrestrictedly in the Chu State without worrying about taking too big a step.
Xu Qing was very glad that he chose to cooperate with Xian Wang. Otherwise, he alone would not even be able to go out to Yongzhou after one year of doing business. As for the current trend of spreading across the country, he would not even think about it.
think.
Although only 30% of the 100% profit belongs to him, this 30% profit is much more than what he would make by operating alone!
While Xu Qing was still reviewing the income and expenditure details of the Guoshang Academy, the little girl sitting next to Xu Qing was drinking the hot porridge Xu Qing had just cooked.
From time to time, I pick up some cold shredded cabbage on the plate with my chopsticks. It is fragrant and refreshing, and I feel satisfied.
Today, Xiao Ruxue has resumed her old habit of consciously coming to Xu Qing's place to have a meal since she was able to go out.
As long as it is made by Xu Qing, even if it is a bowl of porridge or a dish of side dishes, the little girl can eat it with gusto.
Very easy to maintain.
Xiao Ruxue, who was drinking porridge, looked at Xu Qing and said, "Xu Qing, why is this cabbage not as delicious as the ones from the past two days? It's not as fresh as yesterday."
Xu Qing said: "Because it is difficult to grow food in winter. It is no longer the time in winter. Cabbage is also stored in cellars. It must be less delicious every day."
Xiao Ruxue held the exquisite small porcelain bowl and thought: "It would be great if I could eat fresh vegetables in winter."
When Xu Qing heard Xiao Ruxue's words, he thought about it and said, "It's not impossible."
Suddenly surprise appeared on Xiao Ruxue's face: "Really?"
Xu Qing would never lie to her. If he said it would work, it would definitely work.
The little girl never doubted this.
Xu Qing said: "Referring to Nuange, it shouldn't be a big problem to build a greenhouse to cultivate off-season vegetables. Simply put, it is not impossible for you to eat fresh vegetables in winter."
When Xiao Ruxue heard this, she threw herself into Xu Qing's arms like a kitten and shined a light on Xu Qing's face...
Xu Qing saw that the little girl wanted to take advantage of her, so he put his finger on the little girl's forehead, turned his face away and said, "Daughter's family, be careful to be reserved."
The little girl pouted and said, "I won't!"
Xu Qing said: "You just drank porridge, and you didn't even wipe off the rice grains around your mouth. They all stuck to my face... Go and wipe your mouth quickly."
The little girl looked at the rice grains on Xu Qing's face, her big eyes turned around in a circle and said, "Isn't it okay if I eat it myself?"
Xu Qing said: "How can you eat it if it's all on my face? Get off me quickly and I'll get a handkerchief to wipe it."
Just when Xu Qing was relaxing, the little girl slapped Xu Qing's face again...
The rice grains on Xu Qing's face disappeared and were eaten by the little girl.
Xu Qing was stunned for a moment. Does this count as a gain or a loss for him?
Xu Qing pressed Xiao Ruxue's forehead again and said, "Okay, okay, get up quickly. Princess Yongle, how do you feel about riding on someone else's lap?"
Xiao Ruxue turned her head and said: "Anyway, there are no outsiders here..."
At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly opened, and Xiao Ye couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the scene inside the room.
Just then, Xu Qing's helpless gaze met Xiao Ye's dull gaze, and Xiao Ye's throat moved: "Busy... are you busy?"
Xu Qing quickly shook his head and said: "No, no, no... I'm not busy, I'm not busy..."
Things haven't gotten busy yet between him and the little girl.
The little girl's yearning for love is pure and delicious...
It's like grilled fish, like porridge, like moon cakes, like Sister Su...
Xu Qing couldn't bear to break the longing in Xiao Ruxue's heart.
Of course, if King Xian comes back and sees that Xiao Ruxue is missing something and has something else, he probably won’t even be able to run back along the space-time tunnel...
Now Xiao Ruxue is the purest person in the whole family, Xu Qing can't bear to break Xiao Ruxue's purity.
When Xiao Ruxue heard the sound behind her, she quickly jumped from Xu Qing's lap to the side. Xiao Ruxue was relieved when she saw it was Xiao Ye.
Then Xiao Ruxue put her hands on her hips, looked at Xiao Ye and hummed: "Do you want to scare people to death?"
Xiao Ye coughed with some embarrassment on his face and said, "Brother Xu, come out for a moment. I have something to tell you."
Xiao Ruxue looked at Xiao Ye and asked, "What do you two want to whisper?"
Xu Qing pressed Xiao Ruxue on the seat and said, "Okay, finish your porridge quickly, or it will get cold."
After saying that, Xu Qing followed Xiao Ye and walked out.
When Xiao Ye saw Xu Qing coming out, he closed the door and coughed dryly: "Xu...Brother Xu, you and Xue'er should just endure it for two more years. Don't be in a hurry. What if it snows before the wedding?"
If my son's belly grows early, it will be difficult for the father and the courtiers to explain..."
Xu Qing quickly explained: "Misunderstanding... misunderstanding... Brother Xiao, please believe me, I have absolutely no wrong thoughts towards Xue'er..."
Xiao Ye patted Xu Qing's shoulder and nodded to express his understanding. He knew that the person who had the wrong ideas from the beginning was his sister who was never obedient.
As an older brother, Xiao Ye will never allow anyone to have any undue thoughts about his sister or dare to have any thoughts about Xueer. Let alone a human being, the country will be destroyed by you.
But it doesn't matter to him if Xue'er has bad thoughts about others. Not only does it not matter, he also has to take the initiative to help...
Xu Qing sighed and said: "Xue'er has never been able to hide her thoughts and dares to love and hate."
Xiao Ye said: "That's why I want Xu Qing to help persuade Xue'er. Now my father cherishes Xue'er very much. Brother Xu and Xue'er must not let their father find out. In two years, Xue'er will grow up."
When we get older, we will find a way to make our father change his mind, or..."
Xu Qing asked: "Or what?"
Xiao Ye; "Let's try some tricks..."
Xu Qing: "..."
When Xiao Ruxue grows up...
I'm afraid it won't be possible in this life. She's already fifteen and there's still no improvement. What's the use of another two years... It's not like Xuan'er has a good foundation.
Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ye and asked, "Why did Brother Xiao come to me today?"
Xiao Ye said: "Brother Xu, don't you know yet?"
Xu Qing asked doubtfully: "What do you know?"
Xiao Ye said: "The State of Zhou has sent a peace negotiation envoy to our State of Chu to negotiate peace, and it is estimated that they will arrive in the capital in a while."
Xu Qing nodded and said, "That's very good."
Xiao Ye continued: "Since Zhou has sent a peace envoy, we should naturally send someone to negotiate with them. The emperor asked me to ask Brother Xu if he is sure?"
Xu Qing asked in confusion: "Me? What can I do if I am the dean of the National Business Academy? To bring about a wave of great national magnanimity?"
