Chapter 982 - Chapter 982 Discussing Business
Chapter 982: Discussing Business Chapter 982: Discussing Business Editor: Atlas Studios Little Treasure brought his brother to see Huang Ren and his sister.
As Merchant Tan happened to be here to talk to Huang Ren, when he saw the two children enter, he immediately stood up and bowed respectfully.
Little Treasure took two steps forward and helped him up.
Smiling, he said, “Uncle Tan, there’s no need to be so polite.
Please sit down.” When Huang Ren’s younger sister, Huang Chan, heard that Little Treasure was here, she personally served tea and snacks.
Although Little Treasure and his younger brother’s identities were not revealed to them, the Huang siblings knew very well that their mother in the capital was taken good care of.
Although they had to stay in Guangzhou for longer than expected, they were at ease.
Therefore, when Huang Chan came to see Little Treasure and his brother, she did not show any resentment.
However, Little Treasure still felt a little guilty.
Because of him, the three of them could only stay in Guangzhou and could not even leave this house easily.
Having never owed anyone anything, Little Treasure felt a little uncomfortable sitting there.
He wanted to compensate them.
Merchant Tan was easy to deal with since he was a businessman; Little Treasure planned to take sell the mirrors and clocks produced by their two factories at a discounted price.
Of course, this was only after he could leave Guangzhou.
As long as he did not cause any trouble, he could continue to enjoy this discount indefinitely, gaining significant profits.
When Merchant Tan heard this, his eyes lit up with excitement.
Previously, he only wanted to find a way to buy more mirrors and clocks, but now, he could acquire the goods at a discounted price.
How could he not be excited when it was simply a huge step forward?
Even if he was losing out on some profits by staying in Guangzhou for half a year, he would earn it back many times over.
Merchant Tan immediately expressed his extreme gratitude for this, promising to promote the mirrors and clocks with utmost enthusiasm.
The Second Prince, who was standing at the side, asked, “Other than selling mirrors and clocks, what else do you sell?
Do you also sell music boxes?” Stunned, Merchant Tan immediately nodded.
“Yes, yes.
Second Young Master, do you want music boxes?
Once I’m able to go out, I’ll immediately buy two for you.” Music boxes were imported goods.
Although they were expensive and impractical, children of rich families fancied them.
Although music boxes didn’t sell as well, the price was relatively high due to the low supply.
His shop was more inclined to selling practical items like spices, mirrors, clocks, and other things.
Though he didn’t have them, he knew a few merchants in Guangzhou and could get their hands on the music boxes once he could go out.
Not to mention that Qi Wensu only wanted a music box now, even if he asked for gemstones, he would think of a way to get them for him.
Unexpectedly, the Second Prince smiled happily and said to his brother, “I’ll be back soon.” Then, he ran out.
Little Treasure had already thought of what his brother was going to do, but he didn’t stop him.
He just sat on the chair and spoke to Huang Ren and Huang Chan.
Huang Ren used to be a waiter in a restaurant, while Huang Chan made some embroidery to sell.
Since they were stuck in Guangzhou for now, they could not just do nothing.
Fourth Aunt said that people were generally prone to overthinking with too much free time on their hands.
Moreover, she did not want to waste their time like this.
Time was life, so Little Treasure wanted to find something for them to do.
Hence, Little Treasure asked the siblings what they wanted to do.
Even if they wanted to leave the residence, he could discuss it with his Fourth Uncle.
Merchant Tan looked at the siblings enviously.
He knew that he was a merchant who had appeared out of nowhere and likely could not leave this house before the Crown Prince returned to the capital.
However, Huang Ren and Huang Chan had escorted the Crown Prince all the way to Guangzhou.
Clearly, they were trusted.
This could be seen from the way they were treated.
Huang Ren and his sister lived in a house alone, but there was only an old servant guarding the door outside.
Meanwhile, there were two young and strong manservants guarding the small house Merchant Tan lived in.
Though quite friendly towards him, the servants of the Prince’s estate were more affectionate towards Huang Ren and Huang Chan.
He felt that if this pair of siblings could seize this opportunity, they might be able to soar into the sky in the future.
Looking at Huang Ren and Huang Chan, Merchant Tan’s thoughts stirred.
He couldn’t help but wonder if Huang Ren was married yet.
Actually, he had an unmarried biological sister, even if she was a tad young.
Anyway, if that didn’t work out, he also had an unmarried younger brother who could be a match for Miss Huang, who seemed pretty decent.
While Merchant Tan was letting his imagination run wild, Huang Ren and Huang Chan racked their brains.
Their faces scrunched up, but they could not think of anything they could do, so they shook their heads.
Huang Chan said hesitantly, “Why don’t you let me do some needlework?” Little Treasure lowered his head and pondered for a moment.
Then, he looked up and smiled.
“I wasn’t thorough enough in my considerations.
You guys aren’t familiar with Guangzhou, so it’s no wonder that you can’t think of anything to do here.
Why don’t I get someone to bring you around tomorrow?” Merchant Tan looked at the siblings with even more envy.
At this moment, the sound of running came from outside, footsteps fragmented and dense.
It was obvious that a group of children was running over.
Sure enough, not long after, the Second Prince ran in with Tiger Head, with Little Lion and Little An following behind.
The Second Prince pointed at Merchant Tan and shouted, “It’s him!” The three little ones looked at Merchant Tan with bright eyes.
Shocked by this, Merchant Tan almost thought that he had bullied the Second Prince and that the Second Prince had brought his buddies here to settle scores with him.
Little An walked out first and looked at him with bright eyes.
“You sell music boxes?” Merchant Tan hurriedly nodded.
Little An revealed a big smile and shouted to the back, “Bring the things over.” The wet nurse of the three little ones helped carry the things in.
Because there were too many things, they occupied a few nearby tables.
Merchant Tan widened his eyes and looked at the items.
The boxes on the table looked very familiar.
They sort of looked like the music box he had seen before, but they weren’t completely similar.
This was because these music boxes were produced by Great Qi and were much more exquisite than the imported goods.
Little An opened a music box.
Inside was a young scholar in a sweater.
He turned his character around, and once he let go, an elegant piece of music could be heard.
The young scholar then started spinning around in a simple movementaEUR| Merchant Tan’s mouth fell open.
He now understood that these music boxes were not imported at all, but produced by Great Qi.
Seeing his surprised expression, Little An smiled and opened another music box.
Unlike the previous one, the figures standing on it were two little girls in traditional dresses.
When the music started, the two little girls began to dance in circles.
It was gorgeous.
Tiger Head, Little Lion, and Second Prince also hurriedly went forward to help open the music box.
If you thought that there were only varying human characters in the music boxes, you were too naive.
Only then did the merchant understand what it meant to have all kinds of variety.
Other than human characters, there were also rabbits, tigers, and lions.
He swore that he even saw a big red rooster with its head raised and standing on one foot insideaEUR| There was only a small portion of the music boxes that had human characters, and most had various animals that were exquisitely carved.
Seeing Merchant Tan’s stunned expression, Little An closed the music box with satisfaction and straightened his chest.
“How is it?
Do you like it?” Merchant Tan nodded involuntarily.
“Then what do you think of these music boxes compared to those imported products?” Merchant Tan replied honestly, “These are more suitable for the children of Great Qi and will also be more popular.” “Then do you want to do this business?” Little An tried his best to keep a straight face.
“You’re the first merchant we approached” Not to mention that these music boxes were an excellent business opportunity, even if it wasn’t, Merchant Tan would still accept this business.
However, he was very curious.
“Young Masters, I wonder who made this music box.
To be honest, I’ve also thought of manufacturing it myself, but the master craftsmen I hired said that they couldn’t make it after dismantling itaEUR|”
