After getting Sun Yufu's permission, Jiu'er not only supervised Tang Ji's squatting and doing some physical exercises as before, but also taught him the boxing and swordsmanship that he had learned when he was a child.
Tang Ji did not live up to her kindness and practiced hard for three consecutive days. Even Jiu'er was influenced by him and decided not to be lazy anymore and practice martial arts hard.
Early in the morning, after Jiang Ran had freshened up, he rubbed his big crystal eyes and walked out of the room. He saw Tang Ji standing in the yard and Jiu'er, who was practicing martial arts with a wooden sword, shook his head and turned around.
And walked towards the restaurant.
"Miss, breakfast is on the table." Of course Jiu'er noticed her figure and reminded her loudly, then turned his attention to Tang Ji and tapped his thigh with his wooden sword: "Lower it!"
Tang Ji didn't complain. After all, he asked Jiu'er to be stricter and continued to kneel down and maintain the best posture.
A quarter of an hour passed like this, and today's morning practice finally ended.
Jiu'er took out a wet and clean towel from the wooden shelf outside the kitchen and handed it to Tang Ji. He chuckled and said, "Young Master Tang is so awesome. He got used to it in three days. I remember when I squatted on horseback, my thighs were full."
I’ve been sore for half a month.”
Tang Ji stretched his muscles twice, took the towel and wiped his face.
Just kidding, he was a fitness guru with abs in his last life, so this intensity of training was nothing. He casually said a few words to the little girl, then turned around and walked towards the bathroom.
Tang Ji simply cleaned up, changed into another set of clothes, finished breakfast, and took the two girls out.
...
Tang Ji did not go to Ji Ran Bookstore today. "Journey to the West" has now published its third volume, and its popularity has been growing for a long time, so the derivative peripheral products can also start to be put into production. In addition, he also plans to play a role in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"
When adding advertisements, the first thing that came to mind was the Jianghai department store, so I planned to discuss it with Yue Shuhua.
But when he entered the Jianghai Chamber of Commerce, he noticed something strange. The small building was extremely quiet, which could even be described as deserted. The two old men in charge of pawns were sitting at the counter, pecking at rice, and many of the clerks were doing nothing.
He leaned against a pillar and chatted.
According to the past, even if there are no customers, many cooperative shopkeepers come to discuss business, so something must have happened.
Tang Ji walked over with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "What is going on?"
Could it be that Zhu Linyuan's suicide was so frightening that no customers dared to come?
The two guys reacted, saluted Tang Ji, and were about to explain, but were interrupted by Qi Zheng who walked in from the backyard: "Mr. Tang, why are you here?"
"Oh, I have something to ask Sister Yue, and I want to know about the accounting situation, but... why is the building so clean?" Tang Ji asked.
Qi Zheng frowned slightly and sighed and replied: "In the past three days, many shops that cooperate with us have suddenly raised the prices of raw materials. Many of our shops have been affected. The reputation of the Chamber of Commerce has also been affected because of Zhu Linyuan's death. Everyone outside
There are rumors that our chamber of commerce is not clean, and many small shops have listened to the slander and terminated their cooperation with us... The shopkeeper, she... Sigh, Mr. Tang, you have always been resourceful, please think of a way."
Tang Ji's lips parted slightly, slightly surprised. He hadn't been here for three days and so many things had happened. After thinking about it, he asked, "Where's Sister Yue?"
"The shopkeeper is upstairs." Qi Zheng replied, looking at Tang Ji's back walking upstairs, pinning his last hope on him.
Soon, Tang Ji walked into a spacious room upstairs. The layout was very girlish. There was a beauty painting screen at the entrance. The curtains everywhere were pink, and there were also
There was a dressing table and a small dressing room surrounded by long gauze. There was no desk or bookshelf on the other side, only a low mahogany table and a long square bookcase. Yue Shuhua sat on the soft couch behind the low table.
This was the first time Tang Ji walked into this room, because in the past it was Yue Shuhua who took the initiative to look for him. He withdrew his scattered eyes and said, "Sister Yue."
Yue Shuhua focused his eyes on the book in his hand, raised his seductive red lips, and said with a soft smile: "It's so interesting. This monkey beats the white bone spirit three times but was misunderstood by Tang Monk. It's so tragic. My brother's writing is really interesting.
, no wonder so many people buy it.”
As she spoke, she put the books on the table, raised her thin eyebrows, and motioned for Tang Ji to sit aside. She asked Su'er to pour him a cup of tea, and continued to ask: "Brother, do you have anything to do with me?"
Tang Ji knew the difference between men and women, so he didn't sit next to her. He walked to the round table and brought a round stool to sit on, and asked curiously: "Sister Yue, Jianghai Chamber of Commerce is now..."
Before he finished speaking, Yue Shuhua pouted and sighed: "I'm afraid the Chamber of Commerce will not be able to continue. So many people defected at the same time. Sure enough, I am not a woman suitable for business."
Tang Ji obviously didn't believe her lies. This woman was a well-known strong woman in Huaizhou. She was resolute and her methods were a bit ruthless. How could she just give in like this? However, he continued what the other party said: "Then why don't you come?
Will you help me manage the bookshop?"
"Do you mean to make me the hostess of the bookstore? What will sister Jiang Ran think?" Yue Shuhua winked and made fun of her. When Tang Ji looked away in panic, she couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering.
Get up: "Hahaha, just kidding, brother, don't be so nervous, of course sister has a way to deal with it, don't worry."
Tang Ji nodded and took a sip of tea: "Sister Yue, is the driving force behind this matter the Lin family?"
"Yes, since the Jianghai Chamber of Commerce appeared, the Lin family first suppressed and then cooperated. After the false accounting incident, they broke up with me. Now it's time to end it. I have said it a long time ago that Yunhuai City's No. 1
It’s time to change the position of the wealthy businessman!” At the end of his words, Yue Shuhua’s originally charming eyes turned sharp.
Later, Tang Ji learned from her that the price increases this time were all shops that provided raw materials for the Jianghai industry. Even the farmers who provided rice to the rice bank maliciously raised the prices. Among them, the most severely affected were the garment shops.
, the price of supplied cloth will increase, and the production cost of ready-made garments will increase a lot.
Therefore, Tang Ji was very curious as to what solution Yue Shuhua had thought of. After all, other shops in the city had also been bought by the Lin family and they all refused to sell low-priced raw materials to the Jianghai Chamber of Commerce.
Sensing his gaze, Yue Shuhua sneered: "What? You don't believe me, sister? They've raised the price, can't I go to other states to purchase raw materials?"
"But, is there enough time?" If the supply cannot be received in time, the business will definitely be affected.
Yue Shuhua smiled lightly: "Don't worry."
She wrote a letter to her master as soon as she realized something was wrong. The supplies from the association were probably on their way.
Tang Ji didn't know why she was so confident, but thinking that this woman must have her own means to develop the Jianghai Chamber of Commerce to the present level, he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, his eyes lit up: "If the supply is not a problem, the raw materials merchants have
Once the goods are sold, they will come back to beg us."
"My younger brother is still smart. Without the big stomach of the Jianghai Chamber of Commerce, the Lin family alone can't afford so many things." Yue Shuhua answered with a smile, stretched lazily, looked at Tang Ji with his elbows on his elbows, and continued:
"Okay, you don't have to worry about the Chamber of Commerce. Tell me, why did you come to me today?"
Tang Ji put the cup on the table, a shrewd light appeared in his eyes: "Since Sister Yue is planning to deal with the Lin family, of course I have to add fuel to the fire."
