He Xing couldn't understand Lu Jinxi.

But he doesn't need to understand, he just needs to listen.

So after confirming that she would not change her mind, although he still had some doubts in his heart, he suppressed them all, and led Yin Ping back in a proper manner.

The kid in Daozhong also muttered: "Really, Brother He, don't believe it, I think those people are really evil..."

The sound faded away.

Lu Jinxi sat behind the desk and didn't speak. After reading the things she had revised again, she put it away, washed and fell asleep.

The night passed quickly.

This time, because she had already rested the night before, and she still had things to do early in the morning, Lu Jinxi didn't oversleep, and Qingque had already waited for her to get up and wash.

After breakfast, while there were not many people on the street, she took them directly to Haoyue Building.

This is a restaurant.

Yesterday, Lu Jinxi passed by when he was out and about. He paid special attention to the arrangement of the rooms above the restaurant. He thought it was a good place to talk about things, so he asked Sheng Longchang's second master to meet him here.

In addition, You He Xing and the others came here to investigate early, so she was not worried at all.

Early in the morning, the restaurant has just opened.

At this time, both the shopkeeper and the guys had just woken up, and the cooks were still packing the ingredients in the back kitchen, and they didn't even have time to raise the fire.

Suddenly seeing a guest coming in, Qi Qi was stunned for a moment.

Lu Jinxi smiled lightly and said politely, "Do you think I want a private room on the second floor facing the corner of the street, with some snacks and a good tea pot?"

Her dress is ordinary, but her bearing is really extraordinary.

The accent from the capital can be vaguely heard.

So the shopkeeper immediately realized that he was a distinguished guest, and he was not here to eat.

In business, how can you stop money from entering the door?

Of course it is possible to sell tea.

So the shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then laughed quickly, and said directly: "Of course, of course, but this year's new tea has not been served yet. How about Tieguanyin or Dahongpao in Fujian last autumn?"

"Da Hong Pao."

Tieguanyin is considered oolong tea, and people in the north always drink heavier tea, so Lu Jinxi thought about it and chose the latter.

"Good good."

The shopkeeper responded and summoned another man, who asked him to lead Lu Jinxi's way in front, and led him up to the second floor, where he started drinking tea.

It was ready in no time.

This private room is on the corner of the street, facing windows on both sides, and there are no tall buildings on the opposite side.

Sitting inside, on the contrary, you can see the following situation at a glance.

When Lu Jinxi sat down and looked outside, he could see He Xing and several other people scattered in the corner across the street, observing the situation of people passing by.

More than a moment later, the appointed time is approaching.

Downstairs, in the direction of Sheng Longchang, a sedan car came over and stopped downstairs. The curtain of the sedan chair was lifted, and a man in a dark blue robe came out.

Thirty years old, quite tall.

He was not in a hurry, showing a calm taste; he was holding a cigarette rod in his hand, and a cigarette bag was hanging on it; he was tied with a piece of topaz in the shape of a wish.

A square face already has many wrinkles, and it looks older than its actual age.

Although the person gave people a warm and peaceful feeling, when he came out of the sedan chair, his brows were slightly wrinkled, as if he was troubled by some incomprehensible problem.

There was another person next to the proud son, who came in with him.

Lu Jinxi recognized it as soon as he saw it. It was the shopkeeper in Sheng Longchang who he saw yesterday, called Qian Mingda.

"Clap clap clap..."

After the shrill voice, there were footsteps going upstairs, from far to near, and soon reached the door.

"Knock knock."

Someone knocked on the door.

Then came a polite and restrained voice: "Shenglong prosperous Xuan, come to the appointment."

"Please come in."

While speaking, Lu Jinxi had already stood up.

Qingque stepped forward to help open the door, and invited Sheng Xuan and Qian Mingda, the shopkeeper under his hand, to come in together.

It was fine outside the door, but when he raised his head and looked at Lu Jinxi, the expressions of the master and servant suddenly changed.

Sheng Xuan is pretty good.

He knew the identity of this lady early in the morning when Lu Jinxi contacted her by correspondence, so he made some inquiries. Seeing him today, he was a little mentally prepared.

Therefore, even if shocked by its appearance, it is still stable.

But Qian Mingda is different.

He only heard from his owner that there would be distinguished guests coming to discuss business, so he came along today. Along the way, I was thinking, who is this distinguished guest, and what kind of business is going on.

When I saw it, I was shocked!

It was a woman!

And she's a very good looking woman!

Could it be wrong?

Where in the world are there women who come out to talk business with people and do business outside? And still with them Sheng Longchang...

As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse!

"Second, Second Master, let's..."

Qian Mingda's eyes were a little straight, but he only suspected that he had entered the wrong door, so scared that he couldn't even straighten his tongue.

However, Sheng Xuan took a deep breath, obviously calm, and then hugged Lu Jinxi with both hands and bowed: "Sheng Xuan has seen Mrs."

"Second Master Sheng is polite."

Today, Lu Jinxi treats himself as a businessman, does not pretend to be the first official of the imperial court, and does not take any pretense when he speaks.

"Today is about business, don't let it go."

Qian Mingda's eyes widened, and he looked at Lu Jinxi like a ghost.

Sheng Xuan felt that this lady was too different from what he imagined.

Judging from the exchange of letters, the other party's words were decent and his thoughts were amazing, which was far from the impression given by the lady of the great general in the capital. In addition to the relationship between Gu Juefei, he always felt that there should be a master behind this lady, that is Gu Juefei himself.

But now...

The person is like a green lotus waiting for the moon, but there is no shyness in the eyes of a girl in a boudoir, and the subtle expression reveals a kind of old hotness that can only be experienced by people who have been rolling in the mall.

Not smooth, even a bit sharp.

But with a casual glance, Sheng Xuan can judge that in the business field, this may not be a gentle woman, but a vicious beast.

The feeling of jealousy was almost instantaneous, accompanied by the dislocated feeling of stepping on the air.

Sheng Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Since you said this, Sheng Mou is relieved. Compared with the General's Mansion, Sheng Longchang is no more than a businessman, and he can't stand the slightest crush. I can work with you. When it comes to business, Sheng is really flattered."

This time, Qian Mingda was dumbfounded.

It was only at this time that he realized the identity of the woman who was sitting opposite his boss, and he almost fell to his knees.

Fortunately, Lu Jinxi's attention was all on Sheng Xuan, and he didn't pay much attention to him, so he just laughed: "Second Master Sheng knows that he is here to discuss business today. What business do I want to do, in the letter It's already explained. I don't know what you think?"

border trade.

Sheng Xuan is naturally very interested in this one.

In his early years, he wanted to study and start a career, but the family change that year destroyed everything...

The old father was so angry with the elder brother that he fell ill. After the stroke, he could only speak intermittently, but he did not want the elder brother to inherit the family business.

Before dying, he took his hand and watched with tears.

Sheng Xuan didn't want to go into business, and he didn't think he had such acumen and talent, but at that moment, he understood his father's eyes.

——He wants him to inherit the family business and does not want to leave the family business to the elder brother.

In fact, Sheng Xuan almost did it.

He was not good at business, but the scholars piled up and followed Liluchang, and he asked Gu Juefei to borrow some ideas, thus settling the original chaos and leaving behind his ancestral property and Shenglongchang.

Outsiders thought that his eldest brother Sheng Hong was at odds with his ideas, so he left Shaanxi to develop in the Central Plains.

But the opposite is true.

The reason why Sheng Hong will go to the Central Plains is that three points are because the border battle is over, and the Central Plains is the place where business opportunities gather, but more seven points are because of being forced!

Shaanxi Shenglongchang, or Beisheng Longchang, was held tightly by Sheng Xuan, like a bunch of hedgehogs, and Sheng Hong couldn't find a place to speak.

I can't even touch half of my son, so what can I do with ambition?

Instead of spending time in Shaanxi, it is better to go to the Central Plains to develop, and after having the capital, come back to Shaanxi to compete with him.

Isn't it already coming now?

Sheng Xuan remembered what happened yesterday, but he was still very worried.

But now he can't let Lu Jinxi see any clues, and he knows that the business of border trade is Sheng Longchang's life-saving straw, and he can't let it go.

Therefore, he restrained his emotions a little, and Sheng Xuan became solemn. After thinking for a while, he replied: "My wife has seen my situation in Sheng Longchang, and I have the intention to do border trade. My Sheng Longchang happens to be located in Shaanxi, and the passage of goods is convenient. If Being able to cooperate is really a good opportunity given by God, and Sheng is naturally interested. It’s just that his wife paid, and Sheng Longchang contributed. I don’t know if you have any ideas about the movement of the money and the division of dividends?”

In modern terms, this is a business negotiation.

Every minute and every cent of the discussion is for the future benefit.

Lu Jinxi had already started to formulate a plan after seeing that he was going to intervene in the border trade, and naturally he came prepared today.

She didn't talk nonsense, she directly took out a stack of paper from her sleeve and put it on the desk.

This is what I edited and re-transcribed yesterday.

Lu Jinxi smiled: "Look at it."

Sheng Xuan didn't expect her to do this, and immediately knew that he was afraid that he had misunderstood the other party too deeply——

This is not only prepared, it is very well prepared!

It is obvious that he has already thought about all the details of this matter, and he has his own ideas, and he is not ready to let him manipulate it, let alone what he says.

Not some deep house woman, but a real businessman!

If the moment he saw the stack of papers, the cognition in Sheng Xuan's mind was just an intuition; then, after he carefully read all the content written on the stack of papers, this intuition had already been obtained. Completely confirmed.

There was even a tingling feeling in his heart.

After reading it, it took a long while to calm down, and when he looked up at Lu Jinxi again, his eyes were different.

This kind of change, Lu Jinxi, who was watching, couldn't be more clear.

No matter how polite I said before, this second Master Sheng, who was in charge of Sheng Longchang, only regarded her as the official wife of the General's Mansion; it was not until after reading this thing that she really regarded her as a business collaborator, and even Say……

opponent.

"What do you think?"

Lu Jinxi looked at Sheng Xuan's demeanor and asked questions with a calm smile.

Sheng Xuan looked at the stack of papers, handed it to Qian Mingda, the shopkeeper standing behind him, and motioned him to take a look. From the overall situation to the small details, nothing is bad, and Sheng really admires it."

This is a high rating.

But Lu Jinxi didn't show any happy expression on his face. Knowing that he had more to do, he continued to ask, "Then what do you feel dissatisfied with, do you want to change it?"

"In this matter, the wife paid the money, and Sheng Longchang contributed. It stands to reason that Sheng should have no dissatisfaction with such terms. It's just..."

He paused and seemed to hesitate, but finally said it.

"It's just that Sheng feels that the proportion of profit and dividends is unreasonable and needs to be discussed."

On the paper is Sanqi.

Lu Jinxi contributed the money, and there was news and assurance from the court; Sheng Longchang contributed, responsible for the distribution and transportation of specific goods. After removing the corresponding loss and overhead, the net profit is divided.

Sheng Longchang took the third, and Lu Jinxi took the seventh.

Sheng Xuan just felt that this was inappropriate.

Lu Jinxi is also clear.

She even knew exactly which point Sheng Xuan could easily accept, and she also felt that it was okay. After all, she changed the proportion of dividends herself last night.

But now, she just didn't know, took the tea, took a slow sip, moistened her throat, and said, "Boss Sheng thinks 30% is not enough?"

"Manpower and goods have to be prosperous. Madam just invests a piece of money, and then sits and reaps the profits. How can the world's money be so easy?"

This kind of cooperation, Sheng Xuan is not untouched in the past.

"According to the old rules, most people cooperate on five or five. After all, it is not easy to manage a business. It is not simple. The border trade is more related to the two countries. After a trip, it is already exhausted. Madam's Sanqi is not kind."

kind?

Do you need kindness?

Lu Jinxi squinted and smiled, but didn't think there was anything wrong with this ratio. The little bit of sharpness that used to be hidden between his eyebrows finally revealed some clues.

She put down the tea cup, and then looked directly at Sheng Xuan, and said, "I am also a businessman. It seems that I paid the money, it's easy and tight; you and Sheng Longchang contributed, it's hard work. But I don't have the money. , you can't do anything, and I'm afraid you won't be able to find an upper house who is willing to invest money for you in a short period of time, right?"

Sheng Xuan did not speak.

Lu Jinxi tapped the armrest of the chair leisurely, and the more he spoke, the more confident he became: "What's more, I'm the one who paid the money, I've already taken the biggest risk. It's done, you Sheng Longchang will make money with you. , after having money in hand, fools can continue to do border trade business, and it is located in Shaanxi, no worries that Sheng Longchang cannot prosper; no, it is me who loses money. Even if you have losses, how much will you lose? Today Under the hood, risk and benefit are always related. If I can afford the risk, I should have the benefit relative to the risk. Do you say yes or no?"

"..."

Reasonable, not a single word is wrong.

But at this time, Sheng Xuan looked at her as if he was looking at some blood-sucking evil spirit. There was an uncontrollable anger in his eyes, but he couldn't show it.

Even if he is not good at doing business, he can follow his father and brother for so many years, and he has been struggling for a while, and he still knows the basic truth.

Sheng Xuan is very clear that he can't have an attack.

Because Sheng Longchang at this time has no qualifications to refuse!

this woman!

The lady of the General's Mansion!

It was just deliberately picking on this juncture to discuss this cooperation with him!

Others don't know, can he not know it himself?

Sheng Hong has already started to make trouble.

The merchants who originally cooperated with Sheng Longchang did not want to be involved in trouble. I am afraid that when the news came out soon, Beisheng Longchang's business would plummet.

Guys and shopkeepers, each mouthful of rice is still waiting to be paid!

It's not easy to get people together, but it's easy to disperse.

There is a gap opened, and the rest will be like an avalanche, and it will be destroyed in an instant.

Sheng Xuan needs money and a big enough business!

First, in order to stabilize the current situation and prevent Bei Sheng Longchang from being swallowed by Sheng Hong; second, in order to save Sheng Longchang's predicament, the dead horse is used as a living horse doctor, and he can save him anyway.

But Lu Jinxi, this bite was too hard!

She had concluded that he would not dare to delay!

Once the delay continues, it will be fine to maintain the status quo, but if Shenghong has an advantage and weakens the power of Beisheng Longchang, does the Lu family still need to find Sheng Longchang to cooperate?

Even if you are willing to look for it, the proportion of dividends will be even lower!

Because Sheng Longchang at that time was more "no choice" than at this moment!

A heart felt as if it was being tightened by someone, and the pain was really bad.

Sheng Xuan took a few deep breaths and drank another sip of tea before barely suppressing the churning emotions in his chest. He lowered his voice and said, "I really can't talk about it anymore? Madam, what do you think about Four or Six?"

"Don't talk."

Lu Jinxi didn't have to think about it, she just shook her head and spoke very straightforwardly.

"Sanqi. If you are willing, you can sign a contract almost immediately; if you are not willing, I will hurry up and find another home; or are you willing to consider it? It's not right, I'm from the capital, and I don't have much time. , at most you can think about it for a day."

"..."

Sheng Xuan's expression changed, and he was speechless again.

Lu Jinxi got up, walked to the window, looked down, and said indifferently, "I don't think you are very shrewd in business, Boss Sheng, but you should understand things clearly. , Now someone has taken a fancy to the foundation of this boat and wants to help it. It's me, not to mention 30%, or 10%, this business must be done. "
