Chapter 1026 Turning defeat into victory

After Wang Yue and Xiao Chan agreed, they talked to Su Tan'er about going south. Su Tan'er had no objection. She just told Wang Yue to be careful on the road.

Wang Yue also wanted to take Su Tan'er or Nie Yunzhu south with him, but as a result, these two women were career-oriented and couldn't spare the time, so they had no choice but to go south with Xiao Chan and their escorts.

Before leaving, Wang Yue gave the mirror away as a parting gift to coax the two women.

After Nie Yunzhu got the mirror given by Wang Yue, she felt happy for a while, and then she immediately realized that Wang Yue would probably make the mirror by himself. She originally wanted Wang Yue to hand over this business to her, but she Zhang He opened his mouth, but no words came out.

You know, not to mention soap, perfume is already a huge profit, and it is simply making money day by day. If Wang Yue is asked to give this to her, it will be difficult for Su Tan'er to explain.

Su Tan'er's reaction was similar to Nie Yunzhu's. The only difference was that she held a mirror, rubbed the surface of the mirror with her little hands, and asked casually, "Husband, do you still want to leave the baby to Zhuji?"

How could Wang Yue not know what Su Tan'er was thinking? He said casually, "Originally, I planned to leave it to Tan'er, but Tan'er didn't have time. This made me a little embarrassed. After all, it's such a profitable business. , it’s not appropriate to leave it alone.”

After hearing Wang Yue's words, Su Tan'er understood that Wang Yue was asking her to calm down and manage her family's affairs.

She was now happy with Wang Yue, and of course she wanted to accept the affairs of the Wang family. She struggled for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, I will tell grandpa tomorrow and ask him to send someone to take over the business of the cloth shop. It's just the work of the mirror." Square, where do you plan to build it?"

Wang Yue had been prepared for a long time, so he explained with a smile, "The materials needed for the mirror are available on the other side of the river. After being mined, they can be shipped out. We need to build the factory near the dock. I have already bought it and gone to Shantou. For mining, we also sent people to build another workshop, and Madam just needs to sell it."

Su Tan'er saw that Wang Yue had already arranged it, and seemed to be waiting for her to host it. She nodded happily and said, "It all depends on your husband. I will ask my father to arrange a handover first, and wait for you and Chan'er Come back and I will accept the mirror business again."

Wang Yue was very happy when he saw that Su Tan'er agreed, so he didn't press any more, just enough to produce an extra batch to avoid being in short supply.

As soon as Wang Yue comforted the two women and left, Mr. Qin came to Wang's house. Unfortunately, he missed it. When he heard that Wang Yue had gone south to see a doctor for the father of a maid, he couldn't help it. He cursed, "This little naughty guy must have known that I was going to take office, and was afraid that I would let him go with me, so he ran away early."

Su Tan'er, who was escorting Mr. Qin out, happened to hear this sentence, so she pretended not to hear it and watched Mr. Qin go away with a smile.

Only then did she know why Wang Yue was so active in going to Xiaochan's hometown instead of sending someone to pick up Xiaochan's father.

Wang Yue didn't know that someone had misunderstood his arrangement. If he knew, he would be happy to have someone give him a reason.

When he passed by Xiaochan's house, he took care of Xiaochan's father's illness in just one day. Then he didn't stay long and took Xiaochan south to Taihu Lake the next day.

She stayed on Taihu Island for more than a month. Xiaochan was respected by the people on the island, which made her not want to go back.

Of course, the main reason was that she knew this was Wang Yue's property, and Wang Yue didn't hide it from him, which made her very happy and determined to keep Wang Yue's secret.

It’s just that the happy days were short-lived. Wang Yue had just built a dock here and taught his men how to build ships. As soon as he built a few ships, he received news from the secret guards that Su Boyong had been assassinated. Su Tan'er got sick because of this.

Wang Yue had a black line on his forehead. It seemed like he had never encountered this on TV!

He strongly suspected that the dog system had been modified again, but his father-in-law was also the head of the academy. Why would he assassinate him if he had nothing to do?

Also, when he left, Su Tan'er was in good health. Although this woman didn't practice martial arts well, she didn't look like someone who could get sick easily. Could it be that Su Boyong's life was hanging by a thread, so he frightened his wife? ?

However, he didn't have time to think about that. He left a drawing of a warship suitable for walking on the lake and asked the craftsmen to step up the production. He packed up his things and took Xiaochan with him, riding a fast horse towards Jiangning.

After Wang Yue arrived at Jiang Ning's, he got the exact information from the secret guard.

It turned out that the Wu family, which had been dormant for a long time, took action again. This time they obtained the formula of Muyunsha from the Su family, so that Muyunsha was no longer exclusive to the losers.

Moreover, the Wu family also used their connections to obtain orders for Suibu, which also caused the Su family to miss this opportunity.

Looking at the anxious Su Tan'er, Wang Yue was speechless. He said helplessly, "Didn't you say that you don't care about the Su family's business? Why are you still so angry? A loss is a loss. The Su family has a great business, so why are you afraid?" This? You see, the people in the second room are not in a hurry at all."

Su Tan'er sighed and said helplessly, "We can't just watch the Su family throw away the Mu Yunsha business. Without this sign, the Su family will gradually decline."

Wang Yue looked at Su Tan'er's worried look and reminded with a smile, "You also know how difficult it is to make Muyun gauze. Even though the Wu family grabbed Suibu's business, they did not produce enough Muyun gauze." Capacity, they don’t have our production equipment, nor the production efficiency, so there is no way they can compete with the Su family, why are you worried about this?"

When Su Tan'er saw what Wang Yue said, she said with some guilt, "These days, I only focus on guarding against the second wife, but I didn't expect that Xi Junyu, the shopkeeper trained by our Su family, would betray the Su family. He knows where the parts you produce are." The person who processed it has already defected to the Wu family with this news."

Wang Yue raised his eyebrows and asked speculatively, "So, he was the one who revealed the formula of Mu Yun Sha."

Su Tan'er nodded and said with a very sad look, "Yes, the Wu family can expand production as long as they make more equipment, and their connections are wider than that of the Su family, so the Su family may not be able to steal them."

When Wang Yue heard this, he laughed again. When he customized the equipment, he polished several parts by himself. Equipment made by craftsmen alone would not work at all.

Thinking of this, he quickly comforted and said, "In this way, you place an order with Jiangning and all the blacksmith shops and carpenters near Jiangning, and increase the price to let them produce the tools our glass workshop needs."

When Su Taner heard what Wang Yue said, she thought that Wang Yue had given up competing with the Wu family. She felt that turning to mirror production was a good choice if the Su family was not considered.

It's just that the Su family raised her up, but she really couldn't do it. Seeing the Su family's decline, she pleadingly said, "Ms. sir, after our mirror is produced, we can hand it over to the Su family as an agent. If the Su family leaves the cloth business, they will definitely go bankrupt if they don't have other businesses."

Wang Yue had a black line on his forehead. This woman still thought about her mother's family so much, which made him speechless.

So, he did not answer the question, and analyzed it very seriously, "You don't have to worry about the business of the cloth shop. The Wu family can't take it away. The tie-dyeing, spinning and weaving machines he made are completely useless." Used. Because I make all the core parts myself. They don’t have this part, it’s just a pile of scrap iron. You only need to increase the price for those carpenters and blacksmiths, so that the Wu family can only increase the price accordingly. Okay, force them to put all their money, even their shops, in exchange for money, so that they can no longer afford to spend money."

When Su Tan'er heard Wang Yue's words, her eyes widened with excitement. She asked in disbelief, "Ms. sir, are you telling the truth?"

Wang Yue sighed. His wife, despite worrying about the Su family, was actually quite smart.

So, he reminded helplessly, "When did your husband-in-law lie to you? Go down quickly and do as I say."

Su Tan'er saw Wang Yue's words so confidently that she also had a desire for revenge. She increased the price five times at a time and rushed to make parts for the glass workshop.

The Wu family over there was very happy. Not only did they get the formula for Muyun Sha, but they also had the blueprints for the production equipment. They even used their connections to get the Suibu business, which was a blessing in disguise.

I just didn't expect that the Su family would come up with this trick at this time. It seemed that they didn't want them to produce enough equipment in a short time.

You must know that this is a matter of life and death. If they cannot complete the production of Suibu, the Wu family will definitely kill everyone.

Thinking of this, the Wu family quickly contacted the blacksmiths and carpenters in Jiangning, and even the blacksmiths and carpenters in Linxian County, fearing that something might happen.

As a result, they got bad news. The prices of all nearby craftsmen and carpenters were raised five times, and they also signed contracts. If they broke the contract, they would have to pay 20 times the price.

After the Wu family received the news, the whole family was in a panic. You know, the Su family was fighting them to the death.

But after all, they were the ones who were unkind, and they couldn't blame the Su family for fighting back. Even if the Wu family wanted to retaliate against the Su family, they had to wait until the annual cloth was completed.

There is really no other way, and the Wu family can't sue for peace. After all, he has stolen the formula and equipment parts diagram, and the two families are already fighting to the death.

The head of the Wu family discussed with the elders for a long time, and finally unanimously decided to pay the liquidated damages for some larger blacksmiths and carpenters. At the same time, they processed the parts at ten times the price, and they also signed 20 contracts in the same way. times the liquidated damages.

You must know that this money is not a small amount. After all, the carpenter's work is not bad, and ironware is very valuable in this era. The price of their return is 30 times.

In order to prevent the Su family from making decisions on silk, they also ordered a large amount of silk at a high price and signed liquidated damages.

These two items added up, and the Wu family was completely wiped out in one fell swoop. Almost the entire Wu family's wealth was wiped out, and all the shops and properties were mortgaged.

If the Wu family couldn't complete Suibu's business, they would be doomed without having to raid the emperor's house.

Time passed so slowly, and the Su family seemed to have accepted their defeat, but at this time they stepped up sales of Muyun gauze, and the price was 20% lower than before.

The Wu family thought that the Su family was trying to make money crazily before their equipment was produced, so they gloated and waited, and did not continue to kill them all. After all, they were afraid that the Su family would fight to the death.

…

A month later, the parts were finally completed, but when they asked the craftsmen to assemble them according to Xi Junyu's drawings, they found that the assembled equipment could not be produced at all.

Until this time, they were sweating coldly. You must know that it is precisely because of the speed of the equipment that they have enough time to produce old cloth.

However, the equipment is not functioning now. If we only rely on manual tie-dying, we will not be able to provide a sufficient amount of old cloth.

It wasn't until this moment that the Wu family realized that they had fallen into the Su family's scheme.

For the sake of the survival of the entire family, the head of the Wu family took several clan elders and invited some highly respected elders in the city to visit Mr. Su.

Mr. Su had been informed a long time ago. Seeing the other party's grand apology, he was not prepared to add insult to injury. He generously stated the Su family's request, which was to use the equipment produced by the Wu family and the purchased equipment. For silk, just go to the Su family to exchange for enough old cloth.

The people who came together to make peace didn't expect the Su family to be so grand, let alone kill them all, which made them feel very ashamed for a while.

The Su family has also left a good reputation among these prestigious people in Jiangning, and everyone appreciates the Su family's generosity.

It's just that the Wu family is still suffering. Although the Su family finally saved the Wu family, it is equivalent to emptying the Wu family.

The entire family, in order to buy enough equipment and silk, has mortgaged a lot of land and property in the family. Even if the money comes from the annual cloth, it is simply not enough to buy back those properties.

What's even more tragic is that after they paid the annual cloth, the money they got was less than they imagined. They had no way to reason with the officials, so they could only give up some low-profit properties and redeem some relatively important industry.

Originally, they thought that at least Mu Yunsha's craftsmanship was available here, and they could make a comeback with this piece of cloth.

As a result, when they were preparing for manual production, they found that the price of Muyunsha had been reduced by another level. If they tied and dyed manually, they would not be able to recover the cost at all.

This is equivalent to saying that even if they get Mu Yunsha's method, they still can't rely on Mu Yunsha to make the Wu family stand up again.

Xi Junyu, who betrayed the Su family, had already slipped away quietly when he learned that the equipment could not be produced at all.

By the time the Wu family came to look for him, he had already disappeared. They wanted to take revenge, but the Wu family had no target for revenge. After all, they were just a small family in decline, while the Su family had become Jiangning's. One of the wealthiest families.

Relying on the equipment sent by the Wu family, the Su family increased the production of Muyun yarn several times, and was able to provide more Muyun yarn to the market.

In a word, although the Su family lowered the price of Muyun Sand, the production quantity increased, and the income also increased.

The Su family held a family meeting that day, because Su Tan'er had a strong sense of the crisis in the Su family, which not only helped the Su family survive the crisis, but also brought high income to the Su family.

Therefore, Mr. Su made a decision. From now on, Su Tan'er will let Su Tan'er decide on all matters of the Su family, and there is no need to report everything to him.

Although the second wife of the Su family was very dissatisfied with Mr. Su's decision, they had nothing to do. After all, Su Tan'er did a really good job this time, and the Su family immediately secured its position as the leader of the cloth business. They also have favorable things going for them.

If it weren't for the newly rising Wang family, the Su family would have become the richest man in Jiangning, leaving them speechless and afraid to take any action. After all, the Wang family was Su Tan'er's husband's family.

Su Tan'er looked at the changes in everyone's expressions and knew that with this sharp counterattack, she was officially recognized by the entire family.

Of course she was very happy, but she also knew that without Wang Yue's help this time, she would not be able to get through this difficulty no matter what.

Thinking of Wang Yue's request to her, Su Tan'er waited for Mr. Su to finish speaking, then stood up and said with a smile, "Grandpa, you should be in charge of everything in the Su family. Tan'er has other things to be busy with." , may not have the energy to accept all the Su family’s business.”

Everyone in the Su family couldn't believe their ears, especially the second room in the Su family. They felt that they might be in a dream.

First, Su Tan'er came back from the dead and saved the Su family's cloth business. Then Mr. Su handed over all the family business to Su Tan'er. What they didn't expect was that Su Tan'er actually refused. Refused!

Everyone present looked at Su Tan'er in disbelief, trying to make sure that this stubborn young lady wasn't crazy, right?

Mr. Su was the first to react. He asked in disbelief, "Tan'er, are you ready to officially accept the Wang family's business? That boy Wang Yue is going to hand over the Bamboo Notes to you?"

Su Tan'er shook her head, took out a mirror from her cuff, and said seriously, "It's a mirror and glass business. It's as profitable as Zhuji. Grandpa, don't worry, my husband is very good to me."
