Chapter 19 The First Pot of Gold (1)
Nine out of ten people who are not satisfied in life are not satisfactory in everything. It is impossible to achieve everything. There are always some things that cannot be satisfied. Difficulties, adversities, and dangers are indispensable components of a wonderful life! If you are unfortunately in trouble, you can be afraid or worried, but you cannot panic. Once you panic, you will lose your mind and lose the opportunity to get out of the predicament.
Chen Wanrong understood this truth deeply. Although his family could not get rid of the blame, he did not panic. Instead, he changed his mind and immediately had an idea. If he really did what Chen Wang wanted, he would send the hot alkali and buy some rice back. The family's affairs were solved, but they would leave behind future troubles. This was tantamount to telling Li Qingquan that we were in trouble. If he was given a chance and lowered the price like a barrel, how could he do the future business?
Of course, Chen Wanrong can find a license when delivering the goods, but Li Qingquan knows everything about Chen Laoshi's family, and it is hard to guarantee that he will not guess. If this is true, it is unwise to lose one's move before the transaction has been officially started.
According to Chen Wanrong's plan, the deal with Li Qingquan is not a one-time thing, but a long-term one. In any case, you cannot show weakness to him or let him know that he is in trouble. The wisest way is to be confident in Li Qingquan and pretend to be fine even if you have something to do. This is the trick to doing business.
Invisibly, Chen Wanrong has gained the status of dominating the family, and Chen Laoshi was the first to echo: "Wanrong, do whatever you say, and go in the afternoon."
Although Chen Wangshi was worried about a bite of food, he was still very supportive of Chen Wanrong's decision and said without thinking: "Wanrong, I will listen to you."
The understanding and support of the two elders made Chen Wanrong feel relieved and comforted them: "Dad, mother, I made an appointment with Boss Li to get the wastewater this afternoon and give him the hot alkali. After making an appointment, I have to keep my promise and go on time."
Chen Laoshi was poor and had a very ethical and principled life. When he heard this, he immediately agreed: "Wanrong, if you think so, your father will feel at ease, very relieved. This is called keeping trust! You can go wherever you say it!"
Chen Wangshi did not leave either. She gave Chen a honest look and scolded her a little: "Old man, you know how to keep your trust, but Wanrong doesn't know? Mom guesses that the remaining food can be made up for. Wanrong, don't worry."
This matter was decided. In the morning, Chen Wanrong helped Chen Laoshi to do wooden work. At the noon, Chen Wanrong poured the fish, meat, pork, pork and leftover rice leftovers together and cooked a large pot. This hodgepodge had a unique charm, and Chen Wangrong was good at cooking, so the taste was even longer. This place was not leftovers, even the delicacies of mountains and seas did not taste so long. Chen Laoshi almost swallowed his tongue into his stomach.
After dinner, Chen Wanrong put the hot alkali in the basket and carried it on his back, saying goodbye to the two elders and went to send the hot alkali.
Chen Wangshi was like Chen Hushi, eating very happily. He forgot about the anxiety that there was no grain of rice at home, and gave Chen Wanrong happily. Not to mention Chen Hushi, he picked his teeth all day long and burped while sending Chen Wanrong away. Then he touched his round belly: "I'm overeating."
"You're so stupid. You don't know if you're full and don't know if you throw the bowl away!" Chen Wangshi was a little disdainful, threw down a harsh words and went into the house.
"You're the same as me!" Chen Houshi muttered, and went back to work in the house, and a bang sound came from the house.
The originally heartbreaking thing, under Chen Wanrong's clever handling, Chen Laoshi and his wife were no longer worried. It seemed that this was not the case at all. Chen Laoshi was very happy. The sound of cutting wood was loud and dense, as if setting off firecrackers.
The official road is as prosperous as before, with cars coming and going, and the flow of people flowing towards Chang'an. Its busyness is not inferior to that of modern expressways. Chen Wanrong thought that this reflects Chang'an's amazing absorption ability and proves that Chang'an's prosperity is well-deserved. He has to find an opportunity to go to Chang'an to experience it.
Chang'an's name is well-known for any Chinese, and it has an irresistible attraction. It is less than a hundred miles away from Chang'an. If you don't go to Chang'an to experience it, it will be a bit like "not a hero if you can't do the Yellow River". It will be a waste of time traveling.
While changing his mind, he speeded up his pace and rushed to Luojiadian. Today is the delivery date, and it was the day when he came to the Tang Dynasty to make money. Although it was not much, it was the first transaction after all. Chen Wanrong was very happy. He had to walk very quickly, as if he was stepping on a hot wheel. He soon arrived at Zhang Deming's blacksmith shop. Just like yesterday, General Iron locked the door and locked the door.
Although Chen Wanrong was eager to know the results of their master-apprentice research, he had to temporarily suppress his curiosity and walked through the town to Li Qingquan's leather workshop.
From a distance, I saw a team of carriages carrying leather coming out of the workshop, going up the official road, and galloping towards Chang'an. Li Qingquan stood at the gate and waved to the convoy.
Li Qingquan, who was waving, saw Chen Wanrong strode, and a smile suddenly appeared on his originally plain face. He quickly greeted him with a belly. A kind laugh came from afar: "Wanrong, you're here just now! You're not early, I've seen you several times." There were many complaints in his words.
Chen Wanrong knew etiquette very well and quickly walked up to him with a smile on his face. It was not worse than Li Qingquan's smile. He gasped and said with a slight breath: "It is a sin to let Mr. Li wait for a long time. This kind of alkali is very troublesome and takes time and effort. I only slept for two hours to rush for you. If it weren't for your gold face, I wouldn't have suffered this crime. I wouldn't have been delayed for three or five days."
Yesterday, the whole family was in high spirits and the family went to bed until midnight. Today is the day when Chen Zairong went to school. Chen Wanrong got up before dawn to send Chen Zairong to school. He slept for almost two hours. This was half true and half false, but he was very evident to him, as if he was really working for Li Qingquan.
"There is no truth in the business world." You can't tell the truth in business. Chen Wanrong understands the secrets in the business world. No matter whether you are telling the truth or lies, you must say it beautiful and make people feel comfortable.
Li Qingquan suddenly became excited and hurriedly pulled Chen Wanrong to look at him: "It's really hard for you, Wanrong. I want to get the hot alkali as soon as possible, but my body is also important. I can't lose myself too much, so I have to rest more."
He has been a person who has been in the business world for a long time and is very good at performing. He is a bit true or false in his excitement, and only he himself knows.
Chen Wanrong is a clever person, not so stupid that he doesn't cooperate. He asked Li Qingquan to sing a solo show, and looked grateful: "Thank you for your concern, I've recorded it."
"That's right!" Li Qingquan looked relieved and took Chen Wanrong's hand and said, "Wanrong, look at you working so hard, I empathize with it. I've left and paid you a lot of money."
I was in a hurry to say that it was mainly because I was afraid that Chen Wanrong would cheat him out of weight, but he found a beautiful excuse for him, as if he was a very refreshing person, and he was paying money and delivering goods at the same time.
If you want to make a long-term business and make the accounts clear, Chen Wanrong had no objection to his proposal. He responded and let Li Qingquan pull it, but he passed by in the workshop.
After weighing it, it was more than 11 pounds. Remove the oil paper used for packaging and add at least one pound. Li Qingquan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "Old man, this is our first time in a business. I will treat this extra money as a bonus and give it to you."
"How can you be so embarrassed? Wanrong, it's so hard to make this hot alkali, I have to give you money." Li Qingquan refused, and had already smiled so hard that there was only a small gap left in his eyes.
Chen Wanrong knew that he liked to take advantage, so he simply let him take advantage of it and smiled and said, "Please be relieved, please be content with this hot alkali. This hot alkali is not for free. Mr. Li gave me the wastewater, and I will always get some rewards. There is a saying that 'It is impolite to come but not go'. The old man really gave me wastewater. Can I not give some to you? The old man knows the situation at my house. If you can see the master, you will be the hot alkali. Please accept it with a smile."
The extra ones are never possible to be taken back. As a way to give Li Qingquan the extra head, it is a way to do business. Chen Wanrong is eloquent and said this very beautifully.
There is only profit in the business world, and there is no sincerity, but this does not prevent Chen Wanrong from saying beautiful words. This makes people feel comfortable to listen to. He is very happy to Li Qingquan's mentality of not wanting to give him a favor but not to others. He was happy and held Chen Wanrong's hand, and his voice also increased a lot: "Wanrong, let's go, show you something, a treasure!" Without saying a word, he pulled Chen Wanrong away.
