234, business banquet

Wei Ziyuan stood by the railing of the Yueshui Pavilion, and the fragrance of lotus came gently. He looked into the distance, but he only smelled its fragrance and could not see its beautiful figure.

Fortunately, a servant reminded him: "That lotus is planted in the South Garden. Sitting in the water pavilion, you can smell the fragrance of lotus flowers in the south wind."

Wei Ziyuan nodded repeatedly, and this was the incense that the scenery borrowed from the incense. He saw the pond facing the water pavilion, and the reed bamboo and watercress were planted in a sparse and dense manner. The swaying next to the pond, the wind came from the water pavilion, which had an indescribable ancient meaning.

Wei Ziyuan was originally from the Shui Pavilion to entertain guests, but now the open air is everywhere. I don’t know where the guests are going to visit.

The lotus flower pond in the south of the garden and Feishang Mountain in the west of the garden are all delicious and enjoyable. A faint smile appeared on the corner of Wei Siyuan's mouth. Several acres of fertile land were specially marked on the east side of the garden. The old mother's residence was placed there. The old lady was so happy that she couldn't stop talking about her ears as the eldest son. Fortunately, her wife was virtuous and always served the old lady very well. She even asked herself to name the village community Gui Nongxuan.

A burst of laughter came from outside the water pavilion. Wei Ziyuan looked at him and saw several guests chatting happily, and he made waves of admiration from time to time.

Wei Ziyuan had no experience in holding banquets. After the business grew, his family rarely invited banquets. In the past, he had always negotiated business in restaurants and teahouses. The meals were ready-made. At most, he had to order a few dishes.

Wei Ziyuan glanced at the large round table inlaid with marble and rosewood in the hall. In addition to the tableware, there were all kinds of bottles, flower handkerchiefs, etc., and there were shallow water bowls for guests to wash their hands. There were petals that could not be named on the clear water inside.

"Brother Ziyuan let us gain more knowledge today!" Some guests have returned to the Water Pavilion.

Wei Ziyuan couldn't understand the meaning for a moment. The garden was just a pleasant garden. After all, it was the garden of King Zhuang. The ancient pine, cypress, and the thousand-petal lotus flowers were enough for people to open their eyes.

"Brother Zhiyuan's family dinner is really unique. I dare say that from today on, the business districts in Kyoto will follow suit!" Another guest smiled, "I just told my inner person that when I go back, I will clean up a pavilion in my family, which is specially used as an exhibition hall!"

Exhibition hall? What is that for? Wei Ziyuan was confused by the words.

Just as he was wondering, another guest came over and bowed to himself: "It's really a tiger father without a dog son. Mr. Wei has a talent for business at such a young age! My incompetent son really should learn from Mr. Wei!"

Mr. Wei? Could it be that his eldest son, Brother Lin? Wei Zi laughed in the distance: "The dog son is stupid, how can he bear to praise Brother Xue like this!" He was a little shocked. It was not wrong to hold a banquet at home today, Brother Lin met guests. However, it would be fine if the praise just now was something that others said, but the person who said this was Xue Weihua from the Mianhua Xue family. His son is a famous prodigy in the business world!

Xue Weihua laughed, "My son is often praised as a child prodigy, and told me that he is just a fool who has lost his bags of books everywhere! He can hold the book all day long and read it! Although he grows cotton at home to collect cotton, he is afraid he has never even entered the cotton field!" As he said that, he shook his head and smiled: "It's just such a son who has been spoiled by her mother and her grandmother! Mrs. Wei is wise and educates his son to be suitable for learning, official and business! It's even thousands of books that can be read thousands of miles! Xue really admires it!"

Wei Ziyuan was stunned when he heard this, so he could only smile and respond, and could not accept a word. He listened to the other party's praise, as if his son had already won the top scorer!

Fortunately, Wei Ziyuan's second brother and his family will accompany him at this banquet. Now these guests will be accompanied by Master Wei Er. Wei Ziyuan couldn't help but be curious, so he immediately led the servant to the "exhibition hall" to see what happened.

The master and servant walked out of the water pavilion, heading westward, following the winding Bailian Bridge, passing by the double-eaved and octagonal Bixiao Pavilion, and then passing through a smoke-like plum forest, then reaching the Qihe Mountain House at the foot of Feishang Mountain.

Then he saw a faint pine ward, with the sound of the lush waves mixed with the cries of cranes. The servant introduced to his master: "Mrs. I bought these cranes together, and I also asked the crane raising people to raise them. The wife said that if these cranes are gone, then this place will not be called Qihe Mountain House."

Wei Ziyuan couldn't help but exclaim: "Drill a pond along the mountain, sweep the moon and hoe the clouds, and hide it to the extreme of elegance! This place is connected to the plum forest, which is exactly the plum wife and crane son!"

The servant didn't understand these sour words. He only knew that the exhibition hall in Qihe Mountain's room was the top priority, so he led his master to the mountain room along the Ezi Stone Road.

Wei Ziyuan was completely shocked.

The deep room is surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass windows on both sides, which makes the whole house particularly bright: the walls of the house are filled with neat glazed cabinets, and the transparent cabinets are displaying various products operated by the Wei family!

The smooth and soft cooked silk quilts are plated into bunches, and are dotted with mulberry leaves or dried flowers. They are arranged in beautiful shapes and placed in a glass cabinet. The paper attached next to them is classified in detail according to the variety of cooked silk: high-quality fat silk, medium silk, double-guard cocoon silk, cocoon silk...

Each bundle of silk is equipped with corresponding silkworm cocoons, silk reeling tools and pictures. The picture shows mulberry forests and silkworm farms of different origins, and marks the harvest and manufacturing season of each silk...

Although Wei Ziyuan has read a lot of books and loves the romantic and romantic, he has become an authentic businessman in the business world for more than ten years. Facing the dazzling array of introductions of his own goods in front of him, he opened his mouth in surprise and couldn't get along for a long time.

After seeing the white silk tows, the following are various dyeing effects. The colorful silk threads are displayed like rainbows. Then, they will be woven silk cotton effects, finished quilts, cotton coats, etc. made of various cooked silk.

This is simply... The largest shop in Kyoto has never placed goods so carefully. These are simply... Unfortunately, Wei Siyuan didn't know the term museum, otherwise he could summarize everything he saw today.

After watching the product display, the next room was a detailed introduction to the silk reeling process. A northern pedal silk reeling car was placed in the house, with bamboo needle holes, drum wheels, screw hooks and eccentric plates on the car, which were clearly displayed to the guests. What is more vivid is that a weaver personally demonstrated the silk reeling process for the guests.

The most guests stayed in this "exhibition hall". Some people were itchy and even wanted to get on the car and try it out in person. The weaver gave his guidance carefully.

Just as Wei Ziyuan was watching these guests clumsyly slimly, he suddenly heard a loud voice at the end of the house: "The only tricks to reel silk is thin, round, even, tight, and unbiased, slow, joints, cores, and uneven..."

There was a small group of people there, and there was no way to see what kind of situation the crowd was.

Wei Ziyuan stood outside the group of people, listening to the young man's voice sounding slowly: "The hot pot must be slowly laid with cocoons. If you cook more, it will be damaged. Anyone with many cocoons should use this pot..."

It was the voice of Brother Lin, his voice of Brother Lin.

In the past eleven years, it seemed that Wei Ziyuan had listened to this voice seriously for the first time. Brother Lin called himself his father for the first time. Brother Lin was memorizing the thousand-character text for the first time. Brother Lin read the article he wrote to his father for the first time.

His own business colleagues, these businessmen who have been doing business for more than ten or even decades, are listening carefully to a young man's silk introduction.

Wei Ziyuan's vision was a little blurred. It's been eleven years since he had missed so many sons... When did that slutty baby grow up to be the handsome boy today? When did that little monkey climbing trees and playing with water become the pride in front of people today?

"When will it be best to boil water?" asked a wife seriously.

"The water temperature is marked by crab eye soup. Do not be too cold or overheated." Lin Ge'er answered very calmly. "Although the speed of releasing silk in the cold pot is slightly slower than that of the hot pot, the silk that is releasing is more tough and strong."

The wife continued to ask without shame: "Where is the best place to use water for silk reeling?"

Brother Lin paused, and Wei Ziyuan followed a moment of nervousness outside the crowd. He was about to answer loudly for his son, but his son's voice sounded again: "Mountains and waters are not as good as rivers, and waters are not as good as flowing water."

Wei Ziyuan clenched his fists and applauded his son in his heart. He thought that Brother Lin would say that Taihu water is the best, because the "hu silk" feels the best, but his son cleverly avoided regional issues. After all, he is a northern silk merchant. At this time, wouldn't it destroy his own prestige? This time, Brother Lin'er's answer was remarkable and very smart!

Wei Ziyuan was secretly excited, and suddenly heard someone calling him: "Brother Wei, there is something unknown below. The drum wheels of the silk reel truck in your mansion are made small, so the water temperature will be difficult to heat up..."

Wei Ziyuan frowned. The other party was the boss of the Guo family, who said he was with the Wei family, and he was not exactly with him. However, everyone made silk reeling, so his observation of silk reeling technology was more professional. After the other party asked, his family also thought about it: "Brother Guo said very well. If the drum is small and the water temperature can be heated faster, it will save more manpower and material resources!"

"If Brother Ziyuan is interested, you can come to my workshop another day to see it. Let's talk to each other to make greater improvements!"

"I will visit your mansion another day!"

Wei Ziyuan never expected that this family dinner had already achieved great results before it officially began!

All the things in front of me... were thought out by my wife? Brother Lin helped her mother think together? Wei Ziyuan wanted to believe it but didn't dare to believe it. Exhibition hall? Haha, Exhibition hall! It's such a good way!

Today's event is the best family dinner! No, it should be said to be a business dinner! Let's ask Kyoto, let's ask who can go to the world to discuss business with your own arrangements so thoughtful and perfect?!

Suddenly, Boss Guo continued to hear, "There is another thing, I don't know whether to ask or not."
Chapter completed!
