Reborn Farmhouse Restaurant [Transmigration Book]

The next day, Guanshi Wang took Du Qingchen and Su Junxia to the inn together. In the carriage, Guanshi Wang seriously instructed: "The two bosses, the one here is called Wei Hu. They have been emperor merchants for three generations. Although this Wei Hu is not Wei Hu The head of the family, but also the most outstanding one among the collateral descendants, I heard that more than half of the property of the Wei family is managed by him now, it should not be underestimated!"

Du Qingchen nodded and asked, "Since he is from the capital, who is the backer of his Wei family?"

He doesn't believe that someone who has done business as an imperial merchant without a backer can get to where he is today.

Guanshi Wang showed embarrassment, he didn't know these things very clearly, he was just a commoner in Han County, how could he know what was going on in the capital!

But this Su Junxia knew that he was a businessman and had been to the capital many times on weekdays. In addition to the relationship with the Tao Mansion, he still knew a lot of things, so he replied: "There were three imperial merchants in the dynasty, the Wei family, the Qi family, and the Tao family. The family, the Yuan family. The Wei family is dependent on Marshal Qi, the Qi family is dependent on the third prince, and the Yuan family is dependent on the daughter married into the palace, who is said to be a concubine nobleman."

"Marshal Qi?" Du Qingchen was taken aback. Isn't the protagonist in the original book married to Qi Cheng?It's a coincidence, Du Qingchen raised his lips and smiled, but he didn't plan to use Su Nuan's background to build a relationship. According to the plot of the original book, Su Nuan is still in love with Marshal Qi, and hasn't married yet.Moreover, he has always felt that Su Nuan has not contacted his family for many years, and he is afraid that the Su family has long been forgotten. Since they have been forgotten, why should he rush?

Du Qingchen got out of the carriage first, "Let's go!"

Su Junxia followed closely behind. Although Du Qingchen could not directly reject an imperial merchant, he could recommend Su Junxia to him in a friendly manner. If the other party is willing to accept the Su family as a middleman, then everything is easy to talk about. If not, then let's discuss Bar!In any case, put out a friendly attitude first, and also test each other's bottom line and purpose.

In the inn, Wei Hu received the news and was already waiting for them.

Du Qingchen entered the room and took a big look, and noticed Wei Hu. He was wearing an indigo blue gown, eight feet tall, and had a very majestic appearance. He seemed to have noticed Du Qingchen's gaze, and a pair of tiger eyes shot straight at Du Qingchen, with an imposing manner. forcing people.

Du Qingchen looked back indifferently, and even showed a smile, Su Junxia also smiled, compared to being strong, Su Junxia is not much less.

Du Qingchen clasped his hands, walked over with strides, and said happily, "This is Mr. Wei, right? I'm sorry, I have something to do at home these days, and my husband came here, but I couldn't greet you in time. I'm really rude."

"Boss Du made it easy for me to find!" Wei Hu went up to meet him, and supported Du Qingchen who wanted to bend down to apologize. Du Qingchen was supported by him, and then he straightened up automatically. Wei Hu was slightly taken aback, and smiled stand up.

"I saw the popularity of white sugar and vermicelli in Beijing, and I wondered what kind of person could make such beautiful things. It's a great honor for Wei to finally meet Boss Du today!" Wei Hu said with emotion.

Du Qingchen raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, "I wonder if you were ever disappointed when you met Du himself?"

"Pearls and jade are on the side, and I feel dirty."

"You are too polite. You are Xiao Xiao Susu, who is straightforward and clear." Du Qingchen bowed his hands.

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Wei Hu seems to be a rough guy, but there are fine points in the rough, so you need to be vigilant!Du Qingchen thought.

Du Qingchen seems to be a countryman, but he has read books and is alert and smart, so he needs to be vigilant!Wei Hu thought.

The two joined hands, as if they hit it off, they smiled happily, and they handed each other almost at the same time, "Please sit down!"

Su Junxia didn't understand poetry, so he could only smile calmly.

"Who is this?" Wei Hu put on a puzzled look and asked Du Qingchen. In fact, he had known for a long time that this was Su Junxia. Know him, just pretend not to know him.

Du Qingchen didn't expose him, but introduced: "This is Su Junxia, ​​Boss Su. Boss Su is helping to sell my sugar and vermicelli. To tell you the truth, Mr. Wei, I don't have any way to sell. Boss Su is here to help! If Mr. Wei is also interested in my vermicelli and sugar, he can just ask Boss Su to help transport them there. Boss Su is familiar with the road from Han County to Kyoto."

There are several meanings in Du Qingchen's words. First, he made it clear that he wanted Su Junxia to be the middleman to earn the difference. Second, he also pointed out that the Su family only intends to charge a toll, not you, the imperial businessman. How much money, the third time, is to tell Wei Hu that Su Junxia is very familiar with the road from Han County to the capital. If he is allowed to transport it, the journey will be safe. If he is not allowed to transport it, then it may not be certain. The first level is the most cryptic, even if you want to understand it this way, it is a bit far-fetched, but if you have to think this way, you can think it this way, it all depends on how Wei Hu understands it.

Wei Hu nodded and sighed: "If I only plan to buy some vermicelli, then of course I can discuss it with Boss Su in the capital, but this time I can't do it."

"Why?" Du Qingchen looked puzzled, "Mr. Wei came from a long way, full of sincerity, and flattered Du. I discussed it with Boss Su. You give us this face, and the Su family only earns travel expenses. It also saves the trouble of the Wei family, isn't it the best of all three?"

Du Qingchen said it more clearly, if they had retreated to this point, if Wei Hu was aggressive, he would not be sincerely here to do business.

After hearing Du Qingchen's words, Wei Hu knew what Du Qingchen meant. He asked his servant to take out a paper bag, opened it, put it on the table, and pushed it over to show Du Qingchen.

Du Qingchen took a wide-eyed look and recognized that it was produced by his vermicelli factory. He named this thing 'Brewing Powder', but it was actually hot and sour powder. Dried vermicelli and other condiments and side dishes, a round dry vermicelli in the shape of instant noodles, brewed in boiling water, and can be eaten after soaking softly. The reason why Du Qingchen didn't call it hot and sour vermicelli is because vinegar can't be wrapped in it. The paper bag can only be discarded. It can't be called hot and sour powder in taste, so it can only be renamed as 'infusion powder'.But on the whole, this is a kind of dry food, something he made to increase the variety of vermicelli and increase sales.

Du Qingchen raised his eyebrows, "Mr. Wei, what does this mean?"

Wei Hu sighed, and patted Du Qingchen's shoulder with his big hand, with a sincere expression on his face, "Boss Du, I didn't come here to bully others, it's really a matter of great importance, I must come to do this business with you in person, I know you I have full sincerity with the Su family, and I also believe that the Su family really only intends to collect travel expenses, and the price is even much cheaper than the Wei family transporting it back by themselves, which is enough to benefit the three parties, I don't understand."

Du Qingchen said: "In that case, what does Mr. Wei mean?"

"This matter needs to be discussed in detail." Wei Hu said lightly.

Du Qingchen got up, "Du is not talented, there are still a few restaurants in the city, can Mr. Wei please move?"

"It's an honor!" Wei Hu nodded.

Wei Hu followed Du Qingchen and the two into the Du family's carriage, and let him take him away without even taking a servant. He looked very sincere, trusted Du Qingchen and the two very much, and showed full sincerity.

But Du Qingchen had observed Wei Hu's palms a long time ago. He had a sword cocoon in his right hand. He was a martial arts practitioner, and he was so tall. People, so what if you go with them.

In the Du's restaurant, Du Qingchen asked for a private room, and asked Xiao Er not to allow anyone to approach him, and then he discussed his purpose in detail with Wei Hu, and Wei Hu explained it.After hearing this, Du Qingchen realized that Wei Hu's trip was actually to raise rations for the army.Of course, it was definitely not Du Qingchen who came to raise serious rations. Wei Hu came here just to add to the icing on the cake, to increase the variety of military rations, and to provide soldiers with food of various tastes.

"Boss Du, your idea is very ingenious. Put a small bag of ingredients on this round noodle, wash it with hot water, wait for a cup of tea, and it will be a bowl of vermicelli soup with a strong flavor. I have tasted it, it is spicy and appetizing, and the taste is elastic. Although according to the shop assistant in Jingzhong, it is better to add some vinegar if possible, but the vermicelli soup alone is very good. If it is served with a piece of cold hard dry food, it will be delicious. Crumbled into soup, enough for a meal."

Du Qingchen nodded silently. After all, what he was selling was dry food!It seems that there is nothing wrong with marching and fighting.

"Moreover, using this as dry food, you only need to boil water, it is very convenient when marching in a hurry, and it also saves a lot of firewood. Boss Du has never seen a war before, but Wei has heard a little bit. It is said that when the march is urgent, The soldiers can only drink water and eat dry food for several days, if there is this thing, the soldiers can also have a bowl of hot soup." Wei Hu smiled.

Du Qingchen thought for a while and said, "Dare to ask, is this what Marshal Qi meant?"

Wei Hu's eyes flickered, "The raising of military rations is a major matter for the court and has nothing to do with the marshal. We businessmen only care about how we make money."

"That's right." Du Qingchen nodded, "Then let's just talk about the brewing powder. If it is used as military rations, it would be Du's honor, but I don't know how much? When? Can the Su family transport it for you? how?"

In the end, we still need to talk about how to add the Su family. He promised the Tao family that the vermicelli and sugar business would always pass through the Su family, and the Tao family would benefit from it. Only in this way, Tao Taishou would He really cared about the Du family's formula and ensured that it would not be leaked. He could not set this precedent.It's still the same sentence, today he opened this hole, in the future, if someone with a higher status comes to skip the Su family to do business with him?Does he agree or not?

Wei Hu said: "Naturally, the more sources of goods, the better. When to ask for it is a matter of great importance. I can't talk nonsense. As for whether the Su family can transport it, it can't. It is a matter of great importance. The fewer people who know the better, so I can only Come to the Wei family, and then, the price... Boss Du will make an offer, let's discuss it slowly?"

Du Qingchen was silent. Su Junxia has experienced a lot in the past year, and he also knows how to negotiate business with people. Hearing this, he immediately said: "If you can't let outsiders know, then I will know now. I don't think this can be regarded as a reason. Also, the Wei family and my Su family are originally two branches of a tree, what are you talking about inside and outside, whether you know or not? Aren’t they all a family?”

The Wei family is attached to Marshal Qi, and Su Junxia is attached to the Tao Mansion, but in the final analysis, Qi Cheng and Tao Mansion are both members of the Fifth Prince. Although they have never dealt with each other, they are indeed of the same origin.

Du Qingchen didn't expect Su Junxia to be able to say such a truth, and secretly marveled. In the past year, Su Junxia went out to do business, and his vision and insight have improved, and the improvement is not small!

Wei Hu choked, and said with a smile: "The things above are the things above. We are still businessmen, and we have to do our own business! Also, Boss Su, that's not called two branches on the same tree, it's called the same tree." Furious."

With a wave of Su Junxia's hand, he doesn't care about the words, he doesn't like words that are all literal, as long as the meaning can be understood, Su Junxia continued: "So, my Su family will help you with the goods, and you have to be cheap, just as Boss Du said. Speaking of which, isn’t this the best of all three? Why don’t you let me do it? How do you make the Tao family think? What does Marshal Qi think? What does the Fifth Prince think?!”

"I think it's hard for the fifth prince to hear such a trivial matter..." Don't be too self-righteous, okay?

"I think what Boss Su said is reasonable." Du Qingchen nodded silently, "Since the same spirit is connected, why not have the best of both worlds? I will ship the goods, the Su family will deliver the goods, and the Wei family..." That's right!Then there is nothing to do with the Wei family, Su Junxia can directly deliver the goods to the capital to pay the military rations!No wonder Wei Hu has been reluctant to let Su Junxia intervene, there are so many reasons.

Du Qingchen's expression gradually became meaningful, with a smile on his face.
