Chapter 96 The Second Girl is Back
After hearing what Brother Jiang said, Ah Hui realized that she was indeed too impatient. Her face turned red and she lowered her head, "Brother Jiang, I was too impatient!"
Jiang Chengfeng patted Ah Hui's little hand and said with a smile: "Ah Hui, you are very smart! But for some things, haste makes waste!"
Ah Hui nodded and smiled shyly, her eyes full of burning love as she looked at Jiang Chengfeng.
"In fact, there is no rush for the branch issue! Let's run this restaurant well and lay a solid foundation first! However, we can find a suitable piece of land and buy it at a suitable price! Even if we can't buy it right away, we can talk about it slowly, since we have time! If we buy it, even if we don't open a branch, we can still do other business! At worst, we can sell it and make a little profit!"
Hearing this, Ah Hui's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but admire Brother Jiang's intelligence. In fact, this was not Jiang Chengfeng's intelligence at all, but just a trick used by real estate developers in later generations to make money.
"Ahui, you have to believe in yourself and don't underestimate yourself. Even if you don't do well, Big Brother won't blame you!"
A woman in love is the most emotional creature. After hearing what Brother Jiang said, Ah Hui was so happy that she threw herself into Brother Jiang's arms , and she even forgot that her father was still beside her!
Lao Luo couldn't bear it anymore, he coughed twice, looked at his daughter and sighed, "She hasn't even got married yet, but she's already thinking about her man. Girls can't be kept when they grow up!"
"Actually! As an old man, I have no objection to your two affairs! But, Xiao Jiang, you should finish your affairs as soon as possible, otherwise this girl..."
"Dad, what are you talking about?" Ah Hui's cheeks flushed with shame. She hung her head and muttered softly, "Brother Jiang is a man who can do great things. Ah Hui is willing to wait for him!"
Do big things?
Jiang Chengfeng touched his nose and wondered if being a servant in the Shen family for a year was considered a big deal? At the beginning, he just casually agreed to help Uncle Wu in the Shen family, but he didn't expect that he would become a business partner of the Shen family by mistake. Could it be God's will? Of course, as a young man with four qualities, Jiang Chengfeng didn't believe in God's will.
When he returned to the Shen Mansion courtyard, it was already late. Before he entered the courtyard, Jiang Chengfeng suddenly heard a maid calling him from behind.
"Brother Dazhu, you're finally back! That Liu Yunxian sent several invitations, and it seems like she has something important to discuss with you! But you've never been here!"
Jiang Chengfeng was stunned. He suddenly remembered that Ah Hui had told him before that Liu Yunxian had sent people to Yipinxuan several times, saying that she wanted to find him, but unfortunately she didn't find him. He didn't know what important matter this girl wanted to find him for.
Jiang Chengfeng took a thick stack of invitations from the maid's hand. Before he had time to look through them carefully, he found a slightly thin and lonely figure standing in the courtyard. Under the faint moonlight, he took a closer look and couldn't help but open his mouth wide.
"Shen Qingdie?"
However, Shen Qingdie did not notice Jiang Chengfeng. The girl was sitting at the door of Jiang Chengfeng's room, staring blankly at the moon above her head. Her face was desolate and pitiful.
Jiang Chengfeng turned to look at the little maid and asked, "Second Miss..."
The little maid shook her head and said, "I don't know either! By the way, some time ago, when Madam called the family's stewards together for a meeting, I don't know what happened. The second young lady cried for a while, and then Madam sent someone to send her to Suyang. She only came back this morning!"
Jiang Chengfeng sighed. No wonder he hadn't seen this girl before! In fact, he felt somewhat guilty towards Shen Qingdie. Seeing Shen Qingdie change from her innocent appearance to a depressed one, he felt distressed.
Alas, if this girl were a few years older, at least an adult, I might have accepted her and made the trip through time worthwhile!
Now, it is early winter, and the night wind blows. Jiang Chengfeng can't help shivering, but the lonely figure under the moon seems to be unaware of it, staring blankly at the sky.
Jiang Chengfeng couldn't bear it, and glanced at the little maid beside him , "Help me find a cloak and put it on the second young lady!"
The little maid pouted and said with infinite grievance: "In fact, I have sent it several times! But the second young lady has a bad temper and doesn't let anyone get close to her! She also said that if anyone dares to disturb her, she will let the general bite them!"
Jiang Chengfeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How could this crazy girl still have this temper, and like to let the dog bite people for no reason? But it was good this way. At least Shen Qingdie was the innocent and carefree little girl, which was better than the current situation.
"Madam, what do the young ladies say? Don't you care?"
The little maid shook her head and explained, "No! The eldest lady and the lady were discussing something with the female managers of the cloth shop in the meeting room. The second lady ran away secretly, and the lady didn't know about it!"
Jiang Chengfeng understood that he couldn't go to the new clothing launch, but he had heard from Shen Ruoyan that the launch was very successful. The modified cheongsam and underwear were enthusiastically sought after by those socialites and ladies, and even the "underwear models" in the brothels liked them very much.
Regarding this, not only Jiang Chengfeng, but also Mrs. Shen and her daughter were very surprised. Moreover, Shen Ruoyan also said that the on-site orders had reached more than 200 sets.
Jiang Chengfeng couldn't help but sigh, no matter what era, women's pursuit of beauty is endless. However, Jiang Chengfeng is a little curious now, and doesn't know whether Miss Shen has promoted the little thing called sanitary belt, which is also a big killer to make money.
However, the most profitable item was perfume. The three perfumes Shen Ruoyan brought made all the women in the audience scream wildly. Jiang Chengfeng had not mentioned the price before, and Shen Ruoyan made her own decision to set the price at 100 taels per bottle. Unexpectedly, those ladies did not bargain and placed orders directly, totaling 230 bottles. Later, other ladies came and increased the order to 350 bottles.
One hundred taels is an astronomical figure for the poor in this era. But for the rich, it is not a big deal. Moreover, perfume is similar to jewelry, which is a luxury and is not affordable for the poor.
Jiang Chengfeng was obsessed with money and was very dissatisfied with the price of one hundred taels. He said that it should be priced at at least two hundred taels, which was severely despised by Miss Shen.
In fact, it can't be blamed on Jiang Chengfeng for being too greedy. It's because the cost of perfume is high, plus labor costs and other expenses have to be included in the cost. And now it's late autumn and early winter, and all the flowers are withering. Even if Uncle Wen buys the petals at a high price, the raw materials for making perfume are still in short supply.
