Ah!
I've boarded a pirate ship...
In the embassy courtyard, Hua Chao rested her chin on her hand and let out a sigh.
She was a little uncertain in her heart. Although she didn't think Ying Wuji was a reckless and stubborn person, she had never heard of him having any experience in business before, and his motherland, Kingdom Qian, was especially bad at it.
Seven thousand taels were most of her savings. If she lost it, it would be difficult for her to turn her life around in the future.
After all...
Hua Chao took out a mirror from her pocket. Although she was still beautiful, she was nothing like the charming and delicate appearance of a girl in her twenties.
She was already twenty-seven. At this age, other won had already given birth to several children.
Even if she continued to sing, she couldn't earn seven thousand taels again.
What's going on?
She must have gone crazy to entrust her life and money to a man she had just t less than a day ago.
Hua Chao secretly lanted.
Just then, a voice ca from behind her, "Sister Hua Chao, sorry to keep you waiting for so long!"
Hua Chao turned around and saw Ying Wuji grinning at her, looking even more youthful than the wild and unrestrained literary image he had shown last night.
This...
He got the money, and even his address changed. But surprisingly, Hua Chao didn't feel any rejection towards this change of address.
She rubbed her slightly swollen head and said, "Young Master is back!"
Ying Wuji quickly waved his hand, "Don't call Young Master. It's too formal between us. If Sister Hua Chao doesn't mind, you can call younger brother, or even call by my na."
Seven thousand taels, calling him sister wouldn't be a loss.
Sister is still better. Sisters are caring.
A rich sister is even better. Not only will she be caring, but she will also take care of your stomach.
If Hua Chao didn't mind, he could even call her mom.
Anyway, he had no sense of sha.
Hua Chao was dazed for a mont, then smiled, "Wuji!"
Ying Wuji smiled, "Sister Hua Chao! Do you want to go see our industry?"
Our industry...
Hua Chao was a little dazed for a mont. So I also have an industry now.
What is my industry again? We haven't even signed the contract yet, and I don't even know what I'm supposed to do.
Of course, she wasn't afraid of Ying Wuji taking her money. After all, even if the relationship between her and her father was not good, she still had the background of the pri minister behind her.
What she was afraid of... was Ying Wuji losing money.
But she still stood up and said with a gentle smile, "Let's go!"
After speaking, she followed Ying Wuji out of the door and got on the carriage.
When they arrived, after getting off the carriage, she suddenly felt a chill in her heart and couldn't help but ask, "Wuji, the industry you ntioned, is it the paper business?"
Ying Wuji nodded, "Yes!"
Hua Chao: "..."
To access the premium content, go to [ ].
How can the paper business make eight thousand taels in two years?
Ying Wuji seed to be unaware of her abnormality and took the lead into the paper business.
Bai Zhi glanced at Hua Chao curiously, "Miss Hua Chao, are you feeling unwell? Your face is so pale that it's a bit frightening!"
Hua Chao quickly shook her head, "No, no!"Bai Zhi pouted: "You have it! Are you worried that Young Master will lose all your 7,000 taels in business?"
Hua Chao: "..."
This little girl is really accurate in judging people.
Bai Zhi was a little annoyed: "Young Master can do anything, how can you worry about this?"
As she spoke, she followed him inside.
Hua Chao shook her head and smiled bitterly. She could understand why this little maid saw Ying Wuji as a god, after all, she was just a girl who didn't know much about the world.
After entering the store, the shopkeeper quickly greeted them and showed Ying Wuji around.
After the tour, Ying Wuji couldn't help but sigh: "It's not easy for you to hold on until now!"
The backlog of goods was indeed very serious, and the warehouse was full of bundled paper.
But there was one good thing, the people of Qian were hardworking and efficient, and with the sunny weather these days, the paper was dried and free of worms.
The shopkeeper sighed: "If it weren't for Young Master, we would have given up long ago."
"How are the other paper shops doing? Are they in the sa situation?"
"They are all more or less the sa, with more and more goods piling up."
To be honest, it was quite miserable.
Ying Wuji nodded slightly: "Later, send soone to collect the information on the backlog of goods in several paper shops. Now, tell who we sold the previous goods to and in what proportion."
"Ah!"
The shopkeeper slowly said: "Our paper quality is not top-notch, so wealthy families generally don't buy it. Our main custors are actually bound books sold to folk students, or sold to bookstores. The forr is seven and the latter is three, but after the price cut by the Fla Kingdom paper shop, neither of these groups buy from us anymore."
As he spoke, his face was full of worries, and he looked extrely haggard. Obviously, he was exhausted from the Fla Kingdom's offensive.
Ying Wuji also felt his pressure. Although Qian was dominating the battlefield, the national finances were really not good. The entire country's machinery was serving the "agriculture and war" two words, and businessn outside could hardly get any help in business.
Before Ying Yue ascended the throne, the Fla Kingdom's finances had a trend of catching up with the Li Kingdom, although they were later beaten back by Ying Yue. However, even a starving cal is bigger than a horse. As long as they were ruthless enough and determined to fight a price war, they could definitely drag down the majority of Qian's industries.
After a mont of thought, he asked, "What do these people do with the paper they buy?"
The shopkeeper replied: "Folk students usually use it to copy books, after all, the finished books in bookstores are too expensive. They also get hired to copy books for those wealthy families."
"Okay!"
Ying Wuji was relieved, as this information was consistent with what he knew.
The shopkeeper asked eagerly, "Young Master! Can you tell what the solution is?"
Ying Wuji smiled: "You don't have to worry, I can only tell you that a bookstore will co forward within three days and buy all our backlog of goods at normal prices."
"Really!"The shopkeeper found it hard to believe. Nowadays, paper in the Fla Kingdom was of good quality and cheap, and there were bookstores willing to buy paper from his store at normal prices?
The young master's connections were really strong!
He took a deep breath and asked, "Young Master! What else can I do?"
Ying Wuji smiled and said, "Nothing much. Just inform the other shopkeepers and select the bookbinders responsible for each store. Their wages will be tripled, with two-thirds going to them and one-third to the stores. However, they need to sign a confidentiality agreent with . If they leak any information, the consequences will be severe."
The shopkeeper nodded quickly and said, "Young Master, rest assured! We people from Qian are very trustworthy."
This was true. Qian had strict laws, and even the businessn who went out of the country were very disciplined.
Ying Wuji nodded and asked, "What kind of books do the bookstores usually sell?"
"I know a little about it!"
The shopkeeper replied, "The most popular books are the classics of the Hundred Schools of Thought. As the holy land of the Hundred Schools, there are many foreign scholars who co here to study, and the schools also want to recruit talents, so many classics are made public. In addition, there are so anecdotes and stories collected and compiled by novelists, although many of them are fabricated, many people still like to read them. The most famous one is the Pri Minister's attendant, Lanling Sheng. He recently compiled a book called 'Strange Tales of Mountains and Seas,' which caused a frenzy of copying inside and outside the bookstore. It will probably slow down in two months."
"Oh! I see..."
This novelist was not a web novel author from his previous life but a novelist among the Hundred Schools of Thought. Although they were not in the top nine, they were quite popular among the people.
Ying Wuji smiled and gave a few more instructions, asking the shopkeeper to wait quietly for a few days before leaving.
After leaving the store, Hua Chao couldn't help but ask, "Wuji! Will any bookstore really buy such a large quantity of goods at normal prices?"
She had been observing from the side just now. Although this paper business was also her industry, she didn't say anything and just silently thought about how to break the deadlock. However, no matter how she thought, she couldn't co up with a solution.
Ying Wuji said confidently, "Of course! Does Sister Hua Chao not believe ?"
"Which bookstore is it?"
"Of course, it's your bookstore, Sister Hua Chao!"
"..."
Hua Chao was confused. When did she have a bookstore again?
~~~~~~~~~
It's really important for new readers to catch up on new books. I hope all the readers won't hesitate to catch up.
