Huo Xi must go to sea this year.
There is a lot of money in the shop that can be used this year. But she didn't want to move.
This is a big gamble. Going out to sea, ten to nine will never return. If you are lucky, Xiao Jia will naturally be able to enter Zhong Jia. The old bottom has to be kept in case of a comeback. She still has hundreds of thousands of taels in her hand, which is more than enough.
It’s just a matter of thinking about which merchants to go to sea with.
She wants to cover the white sugar and rock candy in her hand for a few more years.
If the street is rotten, it will naturally not be able to sell at a high price. Can cover and cover it.
Visited many firms with Shen Qianzhong and Yang Fu, wrote and scratched on the paper, and crossed out the unqualified firms directly. There are not many capable and trustworthy ones.
"Little Xi'er, why are you willing to come to see your brother?" Pei Youjing still had a smirk on his face.
"Let's see if you have gained a few catties during the Chinese New Year." Huo Xi got to know him well, so he didn't hesitate to tease him.
Pei Youjing laughed, and he said that this little friend is very interesting.
"Let's go, brother will take you to find a large scale, let someone hang the scale, and let you take a good look at it, how much fat is brother. Hahaha..."
Huo Xi rolled his eyes at him, which made him laugh out loud.
The two sat down in the flower hall, and the maids left after serving tea.
Pei Youjing sized her up: "Why did you come here empty-handed? Is this the etiquette that should come when visiting?"
Huo Xi was stunned.
"Hahaha..." Pei Youjing laughed again. "Brother is joking with you, look at your embarrassing face."
"I, I forgot." I really forgot. I just wanted to talk to him about something, so I didn't even hand over the greeting card, so I came to the door. Fortunately, he is in the mansion. Shouldn't it matter?
"But brother, I really miss your seafood." Pei Youjing smacked his lips a few times.
"Your family has a big business, and you still have a shortage of seafood to eat? Your family's boats are sent out, what seafood can't be caught?"
"My family doesn't have a fishing boat. And can my family catch the same as what you send?"
That's right, the rice is always fragrant in the same pot. "It hasn't been thawed yet, like whitebait, peach blossom mandarin fish will be available in a while."
"Okay, brother, don't worry, just don't forget to be a brother when the time comes."
The two exchanged pleasantries and teased each other, and entered the theme.
"Do you want to go to sea?"
Huo Xi nodded. She thought that she must go to sea this year, create conditions if there are no conditions, and solve difficulties if there are difficulties.
Pei Youjing sized her up, thought about it, and thought about how to speak.
"Little Xi'er, let's go to sea. The water is deep. First of all, we need money, and we need a lot of money. What's more, we need all kinds of manpower, such as experienced sailors, experienced guides, stewards, and guards, etc. Wait, the sea conditions are complicated, there are many pirates, and you may not be able to come back if you go out..."
This little sister, he likes it very much. His father wanted to recognize the other party as a righteous daughter.
You said that she founded Guangfengshui at a young age, and she has done well. She has saved a lot of money in the past few years, which is enough for a little girl.
Isn’t it good to live like this? Learn what other people go to sea.
If you don't come back, you will be miserable. At that time, Guangfeng Shui's vitality will be greatly weakened, and he may not be able to get up.
Thinking about this, he persuaded in a gentle voice: "Sister, if you are short of silver envoys, tell your brother that he owes you the transfer of the timber procurement quota last year. Now that there is another business in the clan, brother is very grateful. Usually If you have anything to do, you can come to Brother, and Brother will help you solve it. It’s just going to sea, or, let’s forget about it?”
Huo Xi knew that he was doing it for his own good. Smiling and shaking his head.
Pei Youjing has a toothache.
This younger sister, why can't she listen to her? So going to sea is something ordinary people can do?
Without a rich net worth, who would dare to throw money into it? If you lose this, it will hurt your muscles and bones. That is, the well-established companies that have been established for many years only wait and see cautiously even though they are eager to see.
"I know that out of ten out of ten, it is difficult to return, but the greater the risk, the greater the profit, so I naturally want to give it a go. I am also prepared for the way out."
Hiss, Pei Youjing's teeth hurt again.
"Have you prepared for the back road? Do you know how much money you need to prepare for a trip? The sea is rough, and you need to prepare a large ship with at least two thousand materials to withstand the strong wind and waves at sea. For a sea ship with two thousand materials, you must hire at least Hundreds of sailors, plus other handymen on board, a group of guards, stewards, etc., there are quite a lot of people here. If they don't come back, these people will not be able to pay for the money after they sell Guangfengshui. .”
Huo Xi nodded: "I know."
"You know?" Pei Youjing got up and turned around. Why is this kid so stubborn.
"Sister, can't we manage Guangfeng Water well? According to your current management methods, in a few years, your dowry silver will be able to line up half a street. How many people are envious! Why bother smashing into the sea and still not hear the sound! "
"I know my brother is thinking about me. I have thought about this matter carefully."
"Have you thought about it and you still want to do it?"
"What do you want to do?" Huo Xi was about to speak when a voice came from the door.
Huo Xi hurriedly turned his head to look. Seeing the owner of the Longxing, Pei Youjing's father, Pei Runze, came in with the steward Huo Zhong.
Huo Xi got up and greeted the two of them. Huo Zhong nodded and smiled at her.
Pei Runze went to the first place and sat down. He was over forty years old, well maintained, with a rich face, and looked at Huo Xi with a smile.
Huo Xi felt a little pressure in front of such a wealthy businessman. But she must accomplish the matter of going to sea this year. If the Pei family is unwilling to cooperate, she will find someone else.
"I have made a detailed plan. I am going to spend 150,000 taels of silver to do this, of which 30,000 taels will be used to deal with the aftermath. No money from Guangfengshui will be used. Even if the boat does not come back, Guangfengshui will have no loss. This year's failure, Then I will save money for another two years and try again. After three times, I will no longer touch the sea trade business."
Both father and son, including Huo Zhong, were dumbfounded.
This is again and again, again and again, three times again? Give yourself three chances?
Don't use Guangfengshui's silver? Where did the 150,000 taels come from?
"Where did you get the 150,000 taels? Partner with someone else?"
Huo Xi shook his head: "70,000 taels is the transfer fee you gave me, and the remaining 80,000 taels were earned by exchanging goods with Fanshang last year."
Oops, I forgot that my family gave such a large sum of money. After a moment, Pei Youjing's eyes widened again: "You earned 80,000 taels last year by exchanging goods with Fanshang? What did you exchange for so much money?"
Huo Xi didn't speak, just looked at him with a smile.
Pei Runze glanced at this son, thinking that he had matured a lot, but he was still so childish. Who doesn't have their own secrets in doing business?
Can you ask so carelessly?
