Chapter 174 Old Man Luo Accepts a Disciple
Don't let your nephew look down on you. Don't let the world despise you.
How can a man of his stature be controlled by others for so many years?
He himself felt like he was dreaming.
He sat opposite Situ Jin and Xia Luo. His anxious heart suddenly calmed down a lot.
He took the initiative to pour tea for Situ Jin and Xia Luo. Then he handed a chair to Old Man Luo and asked him to sit at the top.
Pour tea for Old Man Luo as well.
"Xia has always heard Yun Yuan talk about you. Xia is honored to have your favor. Xia is not talented, but I used to
I was deceived by my second brother. I also thought that we were brothers from the same mother. I suffered a lot. Looking back, I was really stupid! "
"In fact, I can't blame anyone else. It's because I have poor self-control. Otherwise, I wouldn't have fallen into such a hopeless situation. I brought shame to the entire family. I feel ashamed when I think about it!"
"In fact, everyone has moments of weakness at certain stages. If you can stop the loss in time, it means you are still a wise man. Don't look back, look forward. Revitalizing the Xia family is not just Xia Yunyuan's business. As his third uncle, you have to hold up the backbone too."
Charlotte gave him a heads up.
"Although Xia Yunyuan is an imperial merchant, many of his businesses are family businesses. You and Xia Yunyuan are of similar age and are still young. If you and your nephew unite, then there will be no place for other merchants in Mobei. I am optimistic about you. You must work hard to become the pride of the family."
Situ Jin encouraged him.
"Young man, doing business is different from other things. You have to judge people accurately, do things steadily, and making money is the most important thing. Don't just focus on these three points, they are enough for you to learn for half your lifetime. Hahaha!" Old man Luo laughed.
"Thank you all for your guidance, which will benefit me for the rest of my life. If I do something inappropriate in the future, please give me more guidance. Please!" After saying that, he knelt down and kowtowed.
"Are you here to learn from a master?" Old Man Luo suddenly moved his stool back and almost fell down.
"Dad, are you interested in Xia Yulin?" Charlotte said with a smile.
Just based on Xia Yulin's few words?
"I didn't say anything." Old Man Luo stood up and turned back to the cabin.
"Xia Yulin, why don't you go into the house quickly? Even a fool can tell that my father wants to take you in as his disciple." Xia Luo urged Xia Yulin.
Xia Yulin got up and ran into the house.
"Why did Dad suddenly want to take in a disciple? Is he too lonely? Does he want to have a disciple around to chat with?"
"Dad has a broad vision. He saw that Xia Yulin is a good candidate. Xia Yulin didn't know our dad's intentions at all."
"This old man is better at judging people than us. I was thinking of letting Xiaonan test him. But dad got there first." Charlotte looked towards the direction of the cabin and curled his lips.
"Then why not take Xiaonan in as well? Let the three of them come to Nanyang to fight. This way they can have a reputation. You and I can't give them anything, so let Dad do it."
"Dad, come out, I have something to say." Xia Luo called her father out, and it was useless for Xia Yulin to go in. She knew her father's temper.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? I want to sleep, and you come to disturb me again." Old man Luo came out lazily, followed by Xia Yulin with his head down.
"See if Xiaonan's meal is ready? Let my dad have a good meal and then rest."
Xia Yulin ran to the kitchen to see Xiaonan.
"Dad, I know you like Xia Yulin, but you can't take the initiative to say it. So, let Xiaonan and Xia Yulin worship you as their master. What do you think? If you don't agree, I will let them worship Situ Jin as their master."
"Why do you want to take Ah Jin as your master? A prince like you still wants to take in disciples? Won't that make people laugh at you?"
"You won't even accept my invitation as your master?"
"Who said I wouldn't do it?"
"Then what do you mean by rejecting Xia Yulin?"
“…” Old man Luo.
"They will be here soon. Xiaonan is your eldest disciple, and Xia Yulin is your second disciple. You are the famous master." Charlotte teased her father.
"Master, please accept my humble disciple's greeting!" Xiaonan and Xia Yulin just happened to come over and immediately began to kneel and kowtow.
"This..." Old man Xia never expected that he would receive two talented disciples during his trip to Southeast Asia.
"The disciples have kowtowed to the master. Will the master give the disciples some gifts?" Charlotte continued to remind her father.
"Let's talk about it when we get to Nanyang, girl." Old man Luo was also very happy.
"Since you all have broken up with your master, you should go to your master if you have any problems in the future, and don't bother me anymore. The business in Hangzhou originally belonged to my father. You can handle it when the time comes. Liang Sheng will handle the coastal trade. He will hand it over to Xia Yunyuan when the time comes."
Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, she had explained most of the matter.
The one under his father's management, this time Xiaonan and Xia Yulin are here to help. The one under Xia Yunyuan's management, Liang Sheng is here to manage.
The trade with Cao Zhize is too complicated. Let's talk about it when he returns to the capital.
If it doesn't work, let the prince take care of it. After all, he is Situ Jin's second brother-in-law. This will also give his second sister confidence.
If Nanyang's business goes well, let Xuanxuan invest in it, even if it is the property they leave to Xuanxuan. Old Man Luo will not mind. Anyway, it will all belong to Xuanxuan and Zimo in the future.
They have to sort out the belongings in the space. If they want to go back, the space must be emptied. They can't take anything back. The space will disappear.
Situ Jin and Xia Luo have already made a plan.
The purpose of going to Nanyang was to turn the things in the space into silver and leave it to Zimo and Zixuan.
Many things are inconvenient to take out. They can only be sold in Nanyang.
Neither of them knew how much silver the palace treasury could store.
Wait until I get back to investigate.
If not, just store it in the palace's storehouse, which is safer than anywhere else. It will also be convenient for Zimo and Zixuan to use it in the future.
"When we get to Nanyang, I have a lot of jewelry and jade here. They were all given to us by the emperor, and some were bought from the Western Regions. When the time comes, you can help me sell them and exchange them for silver."
"This is not difficult. I have a jade shop, and I can just put it there when the time comes." Old man Luo lowered his head and fiddled with the teacup.
"Dad, how much property do you have that I don't know about?" Charlotte had never asked about her father's property in Southeast Asia.
"You'll know when we get there." Old man Luo lowered his head and fiddled with the teacup without stopping for a moment.
"No more talking, let's eat. I'm hungry."
Charlotte couldn't get the answer no matter how hard she tried.
Just don't ask.
"Grandpa, Xuanxuan wants to develop embroidery in Southeast Asia."
"Grandpa will ask his friends to help you promote your work. The ministers in the inner court of the imperial palace all have families and are very wealthy. If Xuanxuan's work catches their eyes, this is really an unpopular industry. Grandpa will then build a store for you, specializing in design. By then, Xuanxuan's reputation will be more famous than your grandfather's."
"Grandpa, I brought all the embroidery samples this time. Mom also brought a lot of fabrics!"
"Well, when the time comes, Grandpa will find you a high-end clothing designer from Nanyang. He will be yours to use."
"Grandpa, that would cost a lot of money to hire someone. Otherwise, I don't know if the embroidery industry is viable."
"It's not up to them to decide whether it's okay or not. Don't worry, Grandpa knows what's going on. Let's eat."
Listening to the conversation between the old and the young, Charlotte learned that her father was also involved in the clothing industry.
No wonder the emperor said he was a hidden talent. This old man looked ordinary. But once he thought of doing business, he was revived.
I hope Xuanxuan's embroidery can go beyond national borders and attract the attention of the world.
This is also a bright path they found for Xuanxuan.
Only in this way can they rest assured of enjoyment and peace in the hereafter.
