This is how the ancients did things. A very simple thing must be made complicated and cumbersome.
He obviously wanted to find Chu Qing to renovate the house, but he didn't say so directly, so he sent a greeting letter first, which meant just to pay him a visit.
But in fact, Chu Qing only had a well-renovated house, and the Chu family was not considered a high-ranking official. Everyone was just giving him face, so how could he really come to "visit" him.
Then, Chu Mansion replied, I should pay you a visit, you are too polite.
Then, the next invitation said it was a banquet, but in fact it was asking Chu Qing to see the construction site, whether this project could be done, and to quote a price.
Housekeeper Bao is responsible for all these things. If it weren't for Bao Guisheng, Chu Qing would have really thought that these people wanted to make friends with him.
Compared to checking accounts, Chu Qing was more interested in making money. After thinking for a moment, he saw that it was still early and left the Chu Mansion again, taking Fu San to Taojiazhuangzi in the suburbs.
Chu Qing knew something about cooperating with the Tao family.
That girl Tao Yi is not a philanthropic person. The reason why she contributes only 30% of the total contribution is not without reason, because she has no "brand".
Even if the Tao family villagers could restore a Taowu Hall one by one, it would be useless, because the officials in the capital only knew that the Taowu Hall that the emperor was satisfied with was built by the son of the left minister of the Ministry of Industry, and no one knew the Tao family villagers.
For example, Tao Yi is now leading a group of Tao family thugs to so-and-so's mansion, saying that they can renovate it exactly the same as Taowu Palace at a lower price. Can the ministers agree? No, because they don't want to eat this house at all.
That’s right, people only look for “Produced by Chu Qing” because they want a brand effect.
Chu Qing has also been thinking about this matter in the past two days, and he suddenly realized that he might have been deceived.
It seems that Tao Yiyi takes 30%, which is a small share, but the problem is that the price is high.
If those ministers really don't care about money and take out thousands of guan, Chu Qing will make a lot of money, and the risks he can take are also great. If something happens in the future, they will definitely come to him, Chu Qing, and
Not a Tao family farmer.
It’s true that the Tao family gets a small amount, but they are just a group of farmers. They can only farm on weekdays, which is no more tiring than building a house. How much money can be earned from farming? If you use your strength, you can earn much more than farming, and you don’t have to bear any responsibility.
Risk, pleasure.
In the end, Chu Qing discovered that if he thought about these issues in advance, such as the high price, risks and rewards, and his own brand effect, etc., even if he considered these issues in advance, he would definitely pay 70% in the end, which he could accept.
He couldn't accept a share ratio, even if it was 40 to 60, because without him, this thing wouldn't be possible.
So it can be said that it was not that Tao Ruolin saw through him at a glance, but that Tao Ruolin saw through at a glance what Chu Qing would think, what he would think in the future, and what he would think in the future. Therefore, he did not let Chu Qing think about it and directly omitted the bargaining step.
, get to the point in one step.
After thinking about this, Chu Qing was not angry, but felt strange.
After leaving the city, Fu San asked: "Master, why are we going to Tao's Village again?"
"We are about to open the business. In the early stage, we will definitely bring people to meet with customers to submit quotations. Business partners must respect each other. It won't matter in the later stage. This is called establishing initial trust."
Fu San shook his head: "I don't understand."
When we arrived at Taojiazhuangzi, there was no need to report the few unruly people who came out, saying that the "eldest lady" had spoken. As long as it was Chu Qing who came, he could be brought directly to the courtyard.
Entering the courtyard, the smile on Chu Qing's face disappeared instantly and he took a breath because he saw a strong figure playing with a stone lock.
The courtyard door is open, and the real maid Bihua is wearing a short coat with tightly tied cuffs and holding a stone lock.
The Chu Mansion also has this kind of stone lock, and Chu Qing doesn't know how much it weighs. After all, this thing depends not only on the volume but also on the density. He just knows that he can't lift this big stone lock. It weighs at least 120 kilograms and can easily weigh around his waist.
Hurt.
Look at Bihua again, standing on a horse stance, panting heavily, sweating profusely, the stone lock is lifted high to the chest, and then gently lowered, repeatedly.
Chu Qing subconsciously took a step back and stood behind Fu San.
It wasn't that he was afraid of Bihua, who was as strong as an ox. The main reason was that he had just heard the legendary story of the Tao family's "eldest lady" from Qiu Wanshan, and he suspected that this strong woman could do magic.
Fu San praised: "What a strength."
Hearing the sound, Bihua turned around and saw that it was Chu Qing and Fu San. Shisuo threw the stone to the ground, and a red cloud appeared on the plate with a big face.
"Young Master Chu, a blessed and strong man."
Bihua was tall and round, and she was a woman after all. She must have been a little embarrassed when a man saw her masturbating. After calling someone, she quickly ran into the house to change clothes.
Chu Qing looked strange.
When you normally visit other people's homes, when the host speaks, he usually just calls me "Master", which means he only calls him "Chu Qing", so why do you bring a "Fu Zhuangshi" with you?
Bihua ran into the house, and Chu Qing was also embarrassed. He didn't want to go in, and it didn't matter if he didn't. Fusan walked in carelessly, weighed the stone lock, and his eyes lit up.
"It's actually a heavy stone used in the military to fortify the body. The eldest lady of the Tao family has a lot of strength."
Chu Qing walked over and pretended to pull it twice. He was able to lift it, but only to the extent that he could lift it.
He can't lift it, but it doesn't stop him from showing off.
"Let me tell you, her movement is wrong. There is no way she can pull like that. The body must be in the correct position, leaning forward, bending the knees, keeping the back straight, and moving the buttocks back."
Fu San was puzzled: "Do you still understand this?"
This is really the case. Strong men in the army often play with stone locks, but many people get injured while playing with them. Those things are not meant to be played forcefully.
"Of course, there is nothing that I don't understand."
Chu Qing laughed happily.
Doesn’t he understand that in order to find a female personal trainer, he paid 5,000 yuan to buy a few lessons, but ended up taking two lessons? The woman quit and the lessons could not be withdrawn. They were transferred to her before resigning.
Colleague, that colleague's elder is like a combination of Fu San and Bi Hua.
The door was pushed open, and Bihua had already put on a light yellow dress. She looked as strong as King Kong Barbie, but she looked awkward in the dress.
Chu Qing cupped his hands and said, "Miss, I am taking the liberty to come here today. I mainly come to discuss with you about..."
Bi Hua waved her hand: "Tao Yi is in charge of everything in Zhuangzi, big or small...it's just past noon, and Tao Yi is still taking a nap. Just wait a moment."
Chu Qing had a question mark on his head.
The eldest lady played with stone locks, and the maid took a nap, and had to wait until it was over. This pair of master and servant was too weird.
Without any need to explain to Chu Qing, Bihua looked at Fu San and smiled.
"I heard that Mr. Fu Zhuang broke into the palace at night to save your young master. I admire him very much."
Fu San, who looks like a North Korean cold-faced killer in front of outsiders every day, was slightly startled, and also showed a smile: "Just kidding."
Chu Qing looked at Bihua and then at Fusan, with strange eyes.
He didn't wonder how the other party knew about Fu San breaking into the palace. After all, he had told Tao Shaozhang before that Xiao Tao was famous for his mouth, so it was normal for the other party to know.
What was strange to him was that the "Qianjin" eldest daughter of the Tao family seemed to have a strong interest in Fu San.
