Chapter 15: Difficult

Chen Zairong smiled at Chen Wanrong and asked, "Mr. Li, why does Mr. Zheng want to see me? I'm not familiar with him."

This question is exactly what Chen Wanrong is going to ask. He looked at Li Qingquan and looked forward to his answer. Li Qingquan smiled and said, "Wanrong, who doesn't want to see you? Do you know that Mr. Zheng kept praising him when he saw the fox fur, saying that he had seen the best fox fur in his life."

He paused, looked at Chen Wanrong with admiration, and then said: "Wanrong, you should know that Mr. Zheng is not an ordinary person. He has extraordinary knowledge and has seen more than tens of millions of good things. I have been dealing with him for so many years, but I have never heard him praise anyone. You are the first one."

This tanning agent is a modern formula, better than the original formula of the Tang Dynasty. It is no longer normal. Chen Wanrong was not surprised at all and smiled and said, "Thank you so much."

"I dare not, I dare not. This is all your ability." Li Qingquan praised Chen Wanrong: "Old Master Zheng will come tomorrow at noon. Wanrong, you will help me no matter what. If you don't come, how can I explain to Old Master Zheng?"

Hearing his tone, he seemed to be afraid that Chen Wanrong would not go to the meeting. Chen Wanrong was about to find Zheng Jianqiu if he had something to do, so he would not go. However, before going, you should first understand Zheng Jianqiu carefully, especially his preferences are more important, and he smiled and said, "Please rest assured, I will definitely come. However, I don't know Mr. Zheng, I just know a little from you. If you can, please tell me about his character. This is the first time we have met, which is very important. I went to see him at your request. If you don't understand his character, personality, and character, if you don't make any comments, your face will not be good."

He clearly wanted to take the opportunity to ask Zheng Jianqiu about his situation, but he told Chen Wanrong openly, as if he was really thinking about Li Qingquan, and admired Chen Zairong so much that he was so impressed. This was the speaking skill, and he secretly gave Chen Wanrong a thumbs up.

Chen Wanrong is really a good person, and he thinks about everything for himself. Li Qingquan was grateful from the bottom of his heart and kept nodding: "Wanrong, thank you so much, it's great!"

"The old man is so serious. This is not a place to speak. Let's go back and talk." Chen Wanrong proposed.

Li Qingquan came to Chen Wanrong not only for this matter, but also for other things. It is really inappropriate to speak on the roadside: "Okay! Wanrong, I came to your house three times since yesterday. Finally, I saw you, and I feel relieved."

Zheng Jianqiu is his big customer. Li Qingquan dared not to find the person he wanted to meet. Chen Wanrong understood his feelings very well: "I am uneasy, Mr. Lao, I am not at ease."

"Wan Rong's words are heavy, and the words are heavy." Li Qingquan was busy and humble and drove the carriage to the Chen family.

Home is a beautiful word, and no matter who comes home, it is a very warm thing. Although it has been only two days since I left, once I returned to the thatched hut where I lived for decades, Chen and Lao Shi were very happy and their faces were so excited that they were shining, as if they were entering a palace: "I'm going home, I'm going home!" The simple words express their endless joy.

He opened the door and let Li Qingquan into the house. Chen Zairong got out of the car, drove Xiao Hei into the circle, threw some grass before turning around.

Chen Wanrong sat down with Li Qingquan: "Old man, there is no one at home for a few days, and I don't even have hot water. I'm so embarrassed."

The Tang Dynasty did not have a thermos bottle and there was no fire in a few days. Where did the hot water come from? Although Li Qingquan was a little thirsty, he would never care about this matter. He smiled and said, "Wanrong is polite, be polite."

After finishing the polite words, Chen Wanrong asked: "Old man, are your fox fur ready?"

When Li Qingquan heard this, he immediately became energetic, straightened his chest, raised his thumb, and praised him: "Wanrong, this is all your credit. I didn't tell you, the five fire fox furs are so beautiful, Mr. Zheng kept praising me, and gave me a good price. How much do you guess?"

As for the price, Chen Wanrong heard from him that he would not sell it for 500 cents. However, smart people would not make taboos. If you guess the price, Chen Wanrong made a smart choice: "Mr. Zheng is so happy, I will definitely not lose you. Mr. Zheng, please tell me about Mr. Zheng's character."

The price is a business secret, and it is a taboo thing. Chen Wanrong is unwilling to get involved in this matter anymore, so he changed the topic. Unexpectedly, Chen Wanrong's thoughts were in vain. Li Qingquan leaned forward and was closer to Chen Wanrong: "Wanrong, don't be too careful. If you don't give it to others, don't give it to you? Mr. Zheng is really nice. He gave me this number, 600 guan per card, and I sold 3,000 guan in five. After excluding wages and some expenses, I made this number, 2,700 guan. In the past, I made skins, and only had four or five hundred guan a year. I made five or six years of money in just a few days. This is all your credit to Wanrong."

In Chen Laoshi's impression, Li Qingquan is a kind of thief. He can't tell such a secret matter even if he beat him to death. He couldn't believe it. He was about to question it, but he grabbed Chen Wangshi and dragged it away.

After leaving the house, Chen Laoshi didn't understand her intention: "Wife, what are you going to do to me? Can he believe his words?"

"Believe it or not is Wanrong's business. What are you listening to?" Chen Wang gave him an angrily blank look.

Chen Laoshi finally understood that this matter was really not something he could listen to, so staying away from it.

"Congratulations to the old man! The old man is favored by the God of Wealth, and he is very happy to celebrate the beginning of the year!" Of course Chen Wanrong knew what to do in this situation.

What people who have made money like to hear the most is to make good things like making fortune. Li Qingquan's eyes were itchy and his whole body was comfortable. He put his hands on Chen Wanrong's shoulders, and his right hand kept patting Chen Wanrong's shoulders: "Wanrong, you are, you are..." After saying a few words in a row, he really couldn't find a suitable word of praise.

It was so beautiful that Li Qingquan took out five golden cakes from his arms and put them in front of Chen Wanrong: "Wanrong, this is fifty taels of gold. It is the Xie Yi I gave you. Please accept it."

When Chen Wanrong gave him an idea to make fox fur, Li Qingquan said that there will be benefits in the future. Chen Wanrong was the "eye of the sky" and could not be taken seriously. Unexpectedly, Li Qingquan actually fulfilled his promise and even made fifty taels of gold at one move, which is five to the copper coins. He is generous and generous!

Pushing the gold back, Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "I have received my kindness from the old man, but I can't take this money. This is all earned by the old man and has nothing to do with me. You paid for the tanning agent I gave you. The transaction has been completed. It is not appropriate for me to take this money again, it is very inappropriate."

Li Qingquan stomped his feet on the ground, and was very anxious: "Wanrong, you heard it awkwardly. This is Xie Yi, Xie Yi! You made the idea of ​​making fox furs. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have thought of this."

"Old man, listen to me, have you ever given me five taels of silver Xie Yi? Besides, you will think of this sooner or later, I will just say it first." Chen Wanrong still insisted.

Li Qingquan's voice increased a lot: "Wanrong, don't you, I'm anxious with you, me! Wanrong, if you don't want it, will you not give me tanning agent in the future? Without your tanning agent, I can't do anything."

To make fox fur, you need good tanning agent. If you want tanning agent, you have to find Chen Wanrong. It can be said that his lifeblood is in Chen Wanrong's hands, so how dare you be wrong to Chen Wanrong.

His concerns were right, but he was too stingy to Chen Wanrong. Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "Mr., don't worry! If you have money, do this business. If you pay me, I will give you tanning agent. How can I not make money? I am not the kind of person who does things against my conscience for money."

Li Qingquan then realized that he was a little grammatical in his anxiousness and quickly defended himself: "Wanrong, don't be too careful. I didn't mean that, really I didn't mean that!"

"Old man, didn't I say that it's my money, and I can't lose a penny! It's not my money, and I can't ask for it. This is the character of dealing with people and things. I can't do such things that are not good and virtuous." Chen Wanrong was very determined.

Li Qingquan didn't retreat: "Wanrong, if you didn't want it, I would be sorry. How can I do the future business?"

After saying this, Chen Wanrong could not without expression. He thought for a moment and said, "Then like this, I will take a ingot, and ask the old man to take back the rest." He put a golden cake in his arms.

Li Qingquan thought about it and then thought, and his knuckles hit his knees lightly, then gritted his teeth: "Wanrong, that's the little one. Wanrong, you are so kind. You are so kind. You are just doing business with you, just two words: Don't worry! Why didn't I find you so good before?"

The Chen Wanrong used to be a world of difference, but Chen Wanrong smiled slightly and happened to tell a lie. Li Qingquan continued: "Wanrong, Mr. Zheng has extraordinary knowledge, good tea and wine, loves reading, does not like to flirt with flowers and grass, live a frugal life, and does not value luxury. Although the family has a lot of money, the cost of each meal is only a few dozen yuan. He is cheerful, and if he meets someone he likes, it is not a problem to spend a lot of money."

Zheng Jianqiu was originally a student in the Imperial College, but later he abandoned school and went to business. He liked Xueya in Qingcheng, liked to study, and did not like to mess with relationships between men and women. Chen Wanrong already knew about these. Unexpectedly, the richest man in Ning County, only a few dozen cents are worth a few cents. Although dozens of cents are not a lot for the poor, it is too much money for a person who has a family of tens of thousands of dollars, and it is not eye-catching at all. It is already rare for him to do this. Chen Wanrong couldn't help but think of Ma Zhizhong, who used leftovers to entertain guests. The two of them had the same effect.

Chen Wanrong's favor for Zheng Jianqiu increased a little, and he smiled and said, "Old Master Zheng has a noble character, which is admirable!"

"Isn't that true!" Li Qingquan agreed with this and said: "Old Master Zheng has a high vision and is not attracted to him at all, but you look at Wanrong with a different look."

Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "I am so honored to be praised by Mr. Zheng!" What else can I say if I don't speak like this in this situation?

Li Qingquan seemed to be very helpful and patted Chen Wanrong on his shoulder: "Wanrong, the fox fur is made very beautifully, but in my opinion, this is not the reason why Mr. Zheng wants to see you, it is probably related to soap."

Chen Wanrong raised his eyebrows and asked, "How do you say this?"

Li Qingquan lowered his voice: "Wanrong, I gave the soap to Mr. Zheng. After he used it, he said it was a good thing and was better than pancreatic. He asked me where it came from. Of course, I told the truth, saying that it was you who made it. Mr. Zheng laughed and said, 'It turned out to be him'. Wanrong, have you met Mr. Zheng?"

Chen Wanrong came to this world and went to Li Qingquan to deliver buckets for the first time. When he happened to see him, he saw no one and could not know him at all. He shook his head and said, "No! He is a big family in Ning County, how could he know me, a mud-legged person?"

Li Qingquan rolled his eyes and couldn't figure it out: "But listen to what he meant, it seems that he knows you."

Chen Wanrong couldn't understand this question: "Maybe. I'm going to ask Mr. Zheng."

"It's useless. I asked. He just smiled and didn't answer." Li Qingquan touched his forehead and said in a daze: "When he saw the fox fur, he asked me how I did so well. I didn't hide it from him, and I couldn't be greedy for the achievements of Late Rong. I told the truth, saying that it was the tanning agent you sold me. Mr. Zheng thought about it and asked me, 'Mr. Li, can you please invite this little brother Chen? I want to see him? He has a lot of things to do, and it's a pity to not see him!" Wan Rong, can you say I disagree?"

Not allowing Chen Wanrong to speak, Li Qingquan asked again: "Wanrong, what did you do to make Mr. Zheng praise you?"

Chen Wanrong couldn't understand this question either, so he shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Old man, you are familiar with Old Man Zheng, I want to ask you to comment on something."

"Wanrong, you said." Li Qingquan blurted out without thinking.

Chen Wanrong spoke very skillfully: "I'll give an example, just give an example, don't take it seriously. Suppose Mr. Zheng has an old house and someone wants it, will he give it? It's okay to buy it or rent it, as long as he is willing to give it to others."

"No!" Li Qingquan rejected it without thinking.

The old house is the ancestral property and is generally not given to others. Chen Wanrong is a little mentally prepared for this, but he didn't expect Li Qingquan to reject it so quickly, and he couldn't help but be stunned: "Why?"

"Wanrong, you don't know anything. If it were something else, with Mr. Zheng's cheerfulness, there was room for negotiation, but this old house had no room for discussion!" Li Qingquan analyzed to Chen Wanrong: "Wanrong, I didn't tell you that he really had an old house. If it weren't for this old house, he was not a businessman, but an official of the court."

There are twists and turns in it, Chen Wanrong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where does this start?"

Li Qingquan sighed: "The Zheng family was also a wealthy family in Ning County before, but they have not yet reached the richest level in Ning County. Mr. Zheng studied at a young age and studied in the Imperial College, with a bright future. But an unexpected thing happened. The old man's father lost money in business and even sold his old house.

"The old house is the property of the ancestors, and filial descendants should be kept in charge. Even the old house is compensated. That is unfilial. His father couldn't afford to get sick and passed away. Before he left, he told Mr. Zheng to redeem the old house and be a filial son. Mr. Zheng abandoned school and went to business for the old house. After several years of hard work, the business and business improved greatly. When he made enough money, the first thing he did was to redeem the old house. For this old house, he would not even be an official. Will he give it to others?"

This is an inevitable thing, and Chen Wanrong couldn't help but be stunned.

The Zheng family’s old house has many rooms and a large area. Food, accommodation and work can be integrated, which is very convenient and easy to manage. Chen Wanrong likes it very much. Without this old house, it can work, but it is not very convenient. There is really no way to let the hired workers rent a house in the city. At worst, they can make up for the bills themselves, or rent them out and arrange them to live there.

Just as Chen Wanrong turned his mind, Li Qingquan thought for a while and said, "But it is also possible that he will give the old house to others."

Chen Wanrong originally planned to give up this matter, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but feel very excited and asked, "Old man, tell me quickly."

Li Qingquan did not answer the question and looked at Chen Wanrong strangely: "Wanrong, why are you doing this for no reason?"

He actually became suspicious, but Chen Wanrong said something: "Old man, you know that the old house is the ancestral property, and the descendants should be kept, right? Mr. Zheng is a filial son and he doesn't even do an official for the old house. This is admirable. If he could find a way to give the old house, I wouldn't I know him better, and wouldn't it be easier to talk when I meet tomorrow?"

It is certainly difficult to make a proud person lower his head, but once it comes true, it is another thing that makes people extremely proud, and it is also good for him. At least he can grow a face. Li Qingquan highly praised this statement: "In fact, it's not a big deal. Just convince him!"

People like Zheng Jianqiu are knowledgeable, insightful, rich, have everything, and lack anything. It is not difficult to convince him, but it is very difficult, but he said it is as easy as drinking pumpkin soup. He really doesn't hurt his back when he stands and speaks. Chen Wanrong was very complaining and asked for advice: "How can he convince him?"

Li Qingquan scratched his forehead and after a while, he said, "It depends on Wanrong's ability, and I can't say it. I can only say that if you use your ability, just convince him! Wanrong is capable, smart, and has many wonderful ideas, you will definitely succeed!"
