Enter the Room

Song Jiyun met Hong Xi in the hall.

He wore a beautiful blue Hangzhou silk t-shirt, without any accessories on his body. Although his face is still handsome and his posture is still upright, compared with when he was in Jingdezhen, he has lost a little bit of the arrogance hidden in his bones as a descendant of aristocratic families, and has a little bit more of a calm and reserved person who is well-versed in the world. There has been a big change.

"Boss Song." As soon as he saw Song Jiyun, he smiled and held his hands in his hands, and said with a bit of joking, "I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything, so please do me a favor for the sake of my fellow countrymen."

Song Jiyun raised his eyebrows.

Hong Xi said bluntly: "Before the Hong family was raided, I hid some private money. After arriving in the capital, I discussed it with Mr. Cao. What Mr. Cao meant was that I was so young and had no one to rely on in my family. I was afraid of doing anything. Afraid of feet. Instead of betting your future on studying, why not do something that others can’t do – open a shop specializing in Jingdezhen porcelain.”

Song Jiyun said "Oh" and became interested.

Hong Xi said sincerely: "Boss Song, I know that you are not an ordinary woman. You will definitely bring your business to Nanjing or the capital. According to me, instead of planning your business in Nanjing first and then coming to the capital, you might as well get there in one step and use the manufacturing office to If you want to seize the limelight, open a shop in the capital and build a reputation. If you also want to win the market in the south, you can go to Nanjing and open a shop, you can get twice the result with half the effort."

Nowadays, if we want to say who produces the best and most complete porcelain in Jingdezhen, it must be the Song Kiln Factory.

Song Jiyun wondered whether he wanted to get goods from her or make custom-made porcelain.

I never thought that Hong Xi's ambition was even greater: "I want to open a shop with you. I am responsible for the business in Beijing, and I will earn six and you will earn four. If you want to go to Nanjing to open a shop, the income of the shop in Nanjing has nothing to do with me. But We can share what we have and help each other build a reputation.”

Song Jiyun smiled and said: "It's a very important matter, I have to think about it carefully."

Hong Xi was a little anxious and said, "How about you give me an answer within three days?"

Song Jiuyun was puzzled.

Hong Xi smiled bitterly and said: "I have taken a fancy to a shop in Dashilar. It will be ready to open in half a month. You know, shops in Dashilar are not easily resold. Once they are resold, the price will be very high. It keeps going up, and the price is expensive. Aren’t I short of money? If you don’t partner with me, I’ll have to find another one quickly.”

Song Jiyun promised: "I will reply to you in three days."

Hong Xi tried to persuade her again: "You know best what kind of person I am. We are doing business together, so you don't have to worry about it here in the capital. You can just concentrate on making porcelain. I am the master outside, and you are the master inside. It will definitely open up the situation in Beijing soon.”

Song Jiyun believed this.

She asked Hong Zhao: "Will he continue studying or start business with you?"

Hong Xi smiled bitterly and said: "I originally thought that if he was willing to study, I would provide for him to study; if he was unwilling to study, he would start a business partnership with me, and then we would gradually separate after the business was good. Who knew he was He ran away on the way to Mr. Cao's house. I'm too lazy to look for him. He's such an old man and he knows where I am. He will naturally look for me when I'm out of food and drink."

Song Jiyun nodded, and the two exchanged a few words before Hong Xi took his leave.

Zheng Quan couldn't help but sigh when he came back from seeing him off: "I really watched him build tall buildings and entertain guests. I didn't expect that Young Master Hong would also have this day."

Song Jiyun admired him very much and said: "People who can get up quickly are quite powerful."

Zheng Quan didn't say anything, but said: "Miss, are you really planning to open a shop with him?"

Song Jiyun was really moved: "The water in the capital is too deep. Although Zhou Zheng is smart and clever, it is still impossible to gain a foothold in the capital in a short time, not to mention all the things at home that cannot be separated from him. Set up a shop and open a shop. Opening a porcelain store is just a matter of a few dollars, but if you want to run a porcelain store successfully, you must have a capable shopkeeper."

And no matter how good the shopkeeper is, he may not be as useful as Hong Xi.

"That's true!" Zheng Quan thought about it for a while and agreed.

Song Jiyun asked him to inquire about Hong Xi: "Since we want to cooperate, we have to find out the details. If we don't work too hard, it will be troublesome if we find out that he is doing some general affairs for Mr. Cao."

"I can save it." Zheng Quan responded, turned around and went out to check on Hong Xi.

Song Jiyun continued to work at his desk at home, correcting the designs for the Empress Dowager.

After finally finalizing the pattern, she asked Zhou Zheng to take it to the second alley across the street: "Just follow it and burn it."

She went to the teahouse to meet Hong Xi.

Zheng Quan checked carefully and found that Hong Xi really wasn't lying.

Mr. Cao was born in a famous family in the south of the Yangtze River. He has only one daughter, who has not yet reached the age of hairpins. According to the rules of the Cao family, Mr. Cao must adopt his daughter and marry her off. He was afraid that his daughter would suffer and wanted to find a son-in-law who could take care of her. Teacher Hong Xi introduced him to Master Cao, also intending to let Master Cao look at him.

Master Cao was very satisfied when he saw that Hong Xi was a talented person and was smart and capable. There was no one left in the family. After Hong Xi found out about Mr. Cao's plan, he found an excuse and moved out of the Cao family. In order to make the Cao family completely give up, he even found Song Jiyun to do business as a partnership.

"Then no matter how satisfied the Cao family is with Young Master Hong, they will definitely have to find a scholar as their son-in-law," Zheng Quandao said. "Master Hong's doing this is tantamount to degrading himself and cutting off the Cao family's thoughts."

As long as there are no inside stories.

Song Jiyun said: "Then I'll leave this matter to you."

Zheng Quan said: "I want Wang Hua to help me."

He told her: "Wang Hua helped me find out all this information. With his help, we will definitely not suffer."

"That's okay!" Song Jiyun thought about Wang Hua hanging around her every day these days, and said, "Just do it with confidence and boldness. If it gets smashed, I'll still be there to support you!"

Zheng Quan responded "yes" with a smile.

Song Jiyun stayed at home and drew pictures for several days.

The troubles in the Yuan family became more and more serious. When she went to the manufacturing office to submit the drawings on time, several Xiaoxu from the manufacturing office were hiding in the corner and gossiping: "I heard that Yuan Yunzhong was killed in front of the Empress Dowager. Your Excellency just said directly that he can't have both wives, otherwise what's the difference between him and the merchant marrying two wives?"

"He really said that?"

"At that time, there were so many ladies, grandmothers, and young ladies in the side hall, and everyone listened very seriously."

"Don't tell me, we hear about the Yuan family every now and then, but whose girl is it that Yuan Yun Zhongfei Qing refused to marry? How come no one talks about it?"

"I really didn't realize it if you didn't tell me. Yes, then who is Yuan Yunzhong going to marry? Whose girl is so powerful that he will not give up until he achieves his goal with his family."

"Is there no one in the capital who knows who that girl is?"

Several people looked at me and me, all looking shocked.

Song Jiyun couldn't help but cough slightly before entering Mr. Liu's official office.
