Chapter 019 Gloves Business Opportunities
"The prince, I went to Dejitang, the largest pharmacy in Langui Town, to inquire. The shopkeeper said that Dejitang had newly collected a wild ginseng plant, which was sold by a young girl about ten years old."
Lu Ming reported to his master the news he found out, "I bought it back with 100 taels of silver."
He respectfully handed a long red box to his master.
Lu Feili opened it and glanced.
The ginseng grew almost the same. He just hid behind the bushes that day and looked at it. He knew that the girl dug a ginseng, so he was not that magical enough to tell that the ginseng was the one dug by the girl. That's why he asked Lu Ming to go to the largest medicine shop and ask about the best and freshest ginseng.
She should be about ten years old.
"Isn't the third brother of the Ji family a recorder in a restaurant? Are you going to take the children's test next year?" Lu Feili casually placed the ginseng on the table, and his fingers were carelessly lit the table, "There is a land, a house and an income. A young girl in her teens still has to go up the mountain alone in the middle of winter to hunt."
He thought, "Is it because my uncle is not kind?"
The aristocratic families have to take into account the fact that there are examples of brotherly discord. Life in the countryside is difficult, and the girl loses her father and has a sibling and mother. If the uncle thinks that this family is burdened and does not provide assistance, it is possible.
"You go and investigate secretly what is going on at her home. Well, don't show any traces."
He had asked military doctors to see several prescriptions given by the girl and had also asked famous doctors to test them, but they were fine. General Zhang had a lot of abdominal pain, and Deputy General Lin had relapsed from head disease. He had taken medicine, but nothing improved.
In the past two days, he asked the two generals to take the two prescriptions, hoping that they would be effective.
"yes."
Lu Ming knew why his master suddenly paid so much attention to a country girl and took the order.
Lu Feili looked at the ginseng placed on the table again, put it in his arms, and stood up and came out.
**
After lunch, Ji Wan went out with a bamboo basket on her back and was about to go up the mountain to pick up some firewood and pick some herbs.
Lu Feili also came to Xiushan with a try-out attitude. He felt that if the girl's family was really in trouble, she finally dug a ginseng on the mountain, and maybe she would go up the mountain. Unexpectedly, she actually encountered it.
Ji Wan had just tied up a pile of firewood and put it in a basket. When she looked up, she saw the boy in black robe leaning slanted beside a bare tree, looking at her with interest.
She was startled and almost slipped, and subconsciously glared at her.
"Do you know that scaring people will scare people to death?"
After saying that, I regretted it again.
She didn't forget that this guy pointed his sword at her last time when he met. If he got angry, he was upset, but she didn't show it on her face.
"Young Master... are you here to hunt?"
She wanted to turn around and leave, but she had already spoken and always asked a few polite questions.
The little girl became more courageous, and Lu Feili curled her lips, "Go up the mountain to dig ginseng again?"
"Ginseng is hard to find, how can you dig it every time?"
Seeing that he had no malice, Ji Wan's tone became more relaxed.
"Just pick up some dry firewood and go back to burn it, and collect herbs at the same time."
Lu Feili looked her up and down and asked, "Do you have no one else in your family? How can you, a little girl, take the risk of going up the mountain? What if you encounter a wild beast?"
"Beasts can appear in the deep mountains. I only walk around the shallow mountains and there will be no danger."
Judging from his posture, it doesn’t seem like he was running around in the mountains when he was free, but it seems like he was coming here to block himself.
But, why?
Ji Wan couldn't figure it out, Lu Feili looked at her in an idle manner, and his eyes suddenly fell on her hands, "What is this?"
She used all the hares she beat on the mountain the day before yesterday to make gloves.
"Gloves, for warmth."
Lu Feili looked slightly surprised, "What did you do?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
Ji Wan thought this person was really strange. She encountered him twice when she entered the mountain. Last time she asked her how many prescriptions she asked for, but this time she cared about her gloves again.
"You sell me this glove and I'll give you...a hundred taels of silver."
Because he occasionally had to inspect the prefectures and counties in the north, he would carry money with him when he went out alone.
Ji Wan stared at him, worthy of being a wealthy young man, and she was really generous in taking action.
In fact, she had thought about selling gloves, but the materials were scarce, and this thing was easier to imitate. People who are good at female celebrities can make it in a few days, and the competition and risk of selling gloves are too high.
Sell it to him...
"What do you want this to do?"
If the size is not right, he will never wear it himself. There is only one possibility, research it and make it by himself.
Lu Feili saw through her thoughts at a glance and smiled.
"I am a businessman. I think your gloves have a great future, so I want to produce them in large quantities for sale. One hundred taels of silver is just a deposit. When it is sold, I can give you...well, a 50% dividend."
"merchant?"
Ji Wan's eyes showed vigilance.
"Then what did you do when you went into this deep mountain alone last time?"
If you are a big businessman, you will definitely have followers when you travel. Even if you go into the mountains and get lost, and meet villagers, you should think about asking for directions, rather than holding a sword to force you. Besides, the injuries on his hand...
The little girl is too smart, Lu Feili has no choice but to say, "I..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, a girl's anxious voice suddenly came from the foot of the mountain.
"Awan, your grandmother and your third aunt went to your house to make trouble again. Your sister's head was broken and shed a lot of blood. Go back quickly..."
It's Feng Mei!
Ji Wan's face changed suddenly, and she immediately turned around and ran down the mountain.
Lu Feili grabbed her hand with a look of a daze.
In one sentence, too much information is exposed.
The Ji family has split up, and they are often bullied by their grandmother and third aunt?
Awan... The file Lu Ming went to the county government to investigate. Zhou's two daughters and one son, the eldest daughter is Ji Wan, who is twelve years old this year. She is as old as his sister, but she is so thin that she looks less than ten years old...
Ji Wan was anxious and had no intention of caring about what he was thinking. She turned around and said angrily: "Let me go."
Lu Feili came back to his senses, but Ji Wan lowered her head and bit his wrist and tried to force him to let go.
hiss--
This girl has sharp teeth.
In an instant, Lu Feili's mind flashed and said, "Your sister is injured. You have to go to the town to find a doctor immediately. The walk is too slow. I have a carriage. As long as you promised the conditions I just drove, I can send your sister a ride."
Ji Wan was anxious to go down the mountain, so she didn't care about anything else and took off her gloves and gave them to him.
"I'll give it to you, let go of me, I'm going to save my sister."
She was so anxious that her face was pale, her eyes were angry and mournful, and her tone was a bit of pleading.
Lu Feili was stunned and let go.
Ji Wan immediately ran down the mountain, never thinking about asking him for help.
"This girl..."
Lu Feili shook his head funny and then went down the mountain from another small road.
...
Ji Wan ran for a while and saw Feng Mei coming in a hurry. She ran back and asked, "What's going on?"
Feng Mei ran away and said hurriedly: "Not long after you left the house, your grandmother and your third aunt came to the door and said that your mother had private money to build a house. In order to separate the family, she cheated the family's money and fields, and made you pretend to jump into the river and frame Ji Yun... She scolded you for being like a wolf and a scorpion, and beat your mother. Aheng kept crying... Your grandmother and the others were making a big fuss, and many people were blocking the door to watch the fun. My second brother had already gone to the north slope to find your uncle. The eldest brother heard your uncle outside say that Arong's head was broken and bleeding..."
Ji Wan's face became increasingly ugly, so she simply took off the bamboo basket, "Amei, please help me carry the bamboo basket to your house, I'll run back."
"good…"
Feng Mei was really tired from running all the way, "You have to be careful. If you have something to do, ask my father and others for help."
Ji Wan had already run away.
