Chapter 139 Making money is the right way
Su Nuan did not wait for Mu Yunting's answer. She did not cry or make a fuss. She quietly accompanied Mu Yunting for a meal and then returned to Duiyueju.
During the dinner, she made a request to Mu Yunting, which was to send back the original maid of Duiyueju.
Mu Yunting agreed readily.
As soon as Su Nuan returned to Duiyueju, Bitao, Meixiang and Baozhu came back.
"Miss, you have lost weight. Have you not eaten well these days?"
As Bitao spoke, she glanced at Chunliu in reproach.
"Why are you looking at me? I took good care of the young lady, but she was disobedient. She was injured but still went out every day. How could she not lose weight after all this?"
"My Lady, I heard that the Emperor has arranged another marriage for His Highness. Have you heard about it?"
Mei Xiang asked.
"Why are you bringing up something else?"
"I don't mean to bring this up, but the wedding is in half a month, and if Your Majesty knows about this, she should make plans early."
"What's your plan? Can you still ask the Emperor to revoke his order granting the marriage?"
"How is that possible? The emperor's words are golden. How can he take them back after he announced them in front of all the civil and military officials? The prince's mansion has always had only one mistress, the concubine, but when Miss Dong marries in, there will be two mistresses. I mean, the concubine should take control of the family before Miss Dong gets married.
From now on, we will all be concubines. You can dominate the family and have an easier time in the mansion."
Mei Xiang finished speaking and received unanimous agreement from the other three.
Su Nuan also felt that what she said made sense, but she was not interested in being Mu Yunting's housekeeper. She wanted to make money for herself.
"You all should be patient, it's just a new concubine, look how anxious you are. From tomorrow on, you all should follow me to do something important."
"Miss, what are you going to do? Are you going to teach Miss Dong a lesson?"
Bitao is ready to go.
"I'm not going to teach you a lesson. I'm going to discuss a business deal tomorrow. You all should come with me."
Su Nuan felt that she should work harder, so she spent the whole night lying on the desk and drawing non-stop. They were all the latest accessories she designed for this fall.
She thought about it and realized that if Cheng Ji went bankrupt, the UBS building would have no support, so she wanted to acquire the store and turn it into her own brand.
Tomorrow she will go to Mu Yunyi to discuss the acquisition with him.
.
Su Nuan was so excited that she ignored Mu Yunyi's reaction when he heard that Dong Jingshu was granted marriage to the prince.
Mu Yunyi listened to Su Nuan's plan absentmindedly and only asked one question, "Brother is getting married again, isn't sister-in-law sad?"
Since yesterday, everyone thought that Su Nuan should be sad. Of course she was sad, but she was just pretending to be calm. However, these people kept reminding her over and over again.
So she went crazy.
"Being sad is useless. Can they cancel the engagement just because I'm sad?"
"I know I'm sad, but I can't control myself."
"She doesn't like you, why are you sad for her? Dong Jingshu only had the Crown Prince in her eyes from beginning to end. Let me ask you, has she ever looked at you straight in the eye?"
"No."
"That's it. Your heart is with someone else. Even if you like her, it's just a waste of time. Instead of wasting your feelings on her, you might as well find a girl who shares your feelings, have a good relationship with her, and then marry her home."
"What you said seems to make sense."
"What do you mean by a little bit of truth? This is the truth. Listen to me, don't be depressed because of Dong Jingshu, that will waste your wonderful life. Following sister-in-law to make money is the right way."
"Yes, I can't waste my life for someone who doesn't like me. What was that acquisition that sister-in-law was talking about?"
Su Nuan repeated her plan. When Mu Yunyi heard about the acquisition of UBS Building, he immediately became interested and asked Su Nuan what he needed him to do.
Su Nuan asked him to talk to the boss of the UBS building and find out what the boss has to say.
Mu Yunyi did what he said and went straight to the UBS building.
He asked Su Nuan to wait for his news outside.
Su Nuan asked Falcon to drive the carriage around Hengsi Street twice. She set her eyes on a shop that sold fabrics.
Su Nuan asked Falcon to park the carriage in front of the shop.
The shopkeeper saw that she was dressed in luxurious clothes and came out to greet her from a distance.
Su Nuan first walked around the store, selected a few pieces of cloth, and asked the shopkeeper what kind of clothes these pieces of cloth were suitable for making.
The shopkeeper brought a few sample clothes to Su Nuan, but Su Nuan was not very satisfied after seeing them.
"Boss, the style of your clothes is too old-fashioned. There is no novelty at all. It would be a waste if the material I chose was made into clothes like this."
"Your Excellency is right. This kind of clothes is just for show. You can buy the cloth and make clothes according to your favorite style."
"After seeing the clothes you wear, I'm not interested in this fabric anymore. Forget it. I'll go to the embroidery workshop in the city to see if there are any new styles of clothes and then buy some fabric."
After saying that, Su Nuan was about to walk out.
The shopkeeper was anxious. The pieces of cloth that Su Nuan had just selected were not cheap. It would be a waste if he lost the deal just because of a few samples.
"Sir, we don't have much of the cloth you selected in stock. If you don't sell it this time, it might be sold out next time you come. It won't be too late to buy the cloth first and then choose the style."
"That won't work. I don't even know what clothes will look like when made from this fabric. How can I buy it? What if it doesn't fit anything I make? Wouldn't that be a waste of money?"
"Don't worry about that, my lord. Such fine material will really make anything look good."
"How about this, boss, bring me some paper and pen, I'll draw a pattern, and you can have someone sew it for me. If it's suitable, I'll buy the fabrics."
After hearing this, the shopkeeper immediately asked the servant to bring paper and pen.
Su Nuan drew a pattern of a cross-collared skirt on the spot.
The shopkeeper immediately called the tailor to cut the cloth, and after a simple splicing and fixing, it became a skirt.
Su Nuan was very satisfied with her design and the effect of the fabric, so she happily paid for the cloth.
When paying, Su Nuan did not forget to propose cooperation with this fabric store.
The shopkeeper was hesitant at first, but after listening to Su Nuan's cooperation plan, he readily agreed.
Su Nuan works as an embroiderer. She designs samples for the new fabrics according to the needs of the store and makes them into ready-made clothes. She displays the samples in the store and pays three taels of silver for each set of samples.
This is the first level of cooperation.
The second level of cooperation is that Su Nuan will use the fabrics from the cloth shop in her own embroidery workshop. The cloth shop will sell the fabrics to the embroidery workshop at a 40% discount. At the same time, the embroidery workshop can sell the fabrics at the same price as the cloth shop.
The first level of cooperation only earned a small amount of money, and Su Nuan planned to use it as a benefit for the embroiderers.
The second level of cooperation is Su Nuan's real purpose. There is an embroidery workshop on Zhusheng Street. She plans to go to the embroidery workshop to discuss cooperation after getting the cooperation agreement with the cloth shop, and then take 20% of the profits.
If the cooperation is successful, we can earn at least one hundred taels more per month.
When Su Nuan happily returned to the downstairs of the UBS Building with the contract with the owner of the cloth shop, Mu Yunyi was already waiting there.
