Chapter 1748: Chapter 1748: Trouble (3)
“Why are you getting so close?” Qi Jingyi hastily stopped, almost hugging Mark, and then took two steps back in disdain, waving his hand, “Hurry up and move aside.”
Mark blinked innocently and then obediently stepped back to Yang Ruxin’s side.
However, Qi Jingyi didn’t feel like embracing anymore, so he just led them to his exclusive private room upstairs: “We’re here, might as well taste the food and give some pointers…”
“It’s not mealtime right now.” Yang Ruxin glanced at him, “And judging by how busy it is, do you think I don’t know the business here is good? We’ll talk pointers later, for now, sit down and stop bustling around.”
Qi Jingyi grinned widely but didn’t insist, only had some snacks served: “Let me tell you, your sauce is really popular, especially that chili sauce, it’s so satisfying… but the quantity is way too little, demand exceeds supply, I’m telling you, if there were more, selling just that could earn quite a bit…”
“But the quantity of peppers is limited.” Yang Ruxin spread her hands, “Didn’t I tell you it’s a controlled sale? The main purpose is to boost the restaurant’s dining…”
“I know.” Qi Jingyi nodded, “The effect is just too good, right?”
“I want to talk to you about the furniture shop…”
“I was just thinking about discussing that too, your idea of a furniture mall sounds perfect, now that you’re here in Beijing, and I’ve got the shop, we should kick it off…” Qi Jingyi found doing business addictive, the feeling of earning money was simply exhilarating.
The furniture now is sold through his contacts, though it all sells, the quantity is still limited. If a furniture mall were established, they could specialize in selling furniture.
“But every time the transport team hauls stuff over from such a distance, isn’t it too troublesome? Have you considered setting up a workshop here?”
“Not enough manpower.” Yang Ruxin shook her head, “If the furniture mall is up, all the furniture can be sold in sets…”
They discussed furniture sales a bit further.
Qi Jingyi’s eyes brightened further: “Then let’s do it.”
“Alright, I’ll draft a plan for you when I get back, so you can get started.” Yang Ruxin smiled, “Now I’ll go see Uncle Youcai and the others.”
Qi Jingyi quickly sent someone to call them, saving Yang Ruxin the trip.
“By the way, recently some merchants from the Western Regions arrived in Beijing, bringing a lot of Western goods, do you want any?” Qi Jingyi suddenly recalled.
“Sure, as much as you can get, I’ll take it all.” Yang Ruxin smiled.
“Then have them wait a few more days, I’ll try to get more for you, they’ll surely sell well back home…”
As they spoke, Liang Youcai and the rest came over, all were happy to see Yang Ruxin. She gave some instructions, then treated them all to dinner at Baoyue Building before leaving.
When she returned to the General’s Residence, the sky was not yet completely dark.
“Madam, something happened at Hengxin Pavilion…” Gu Di looked at Yang Ruxin with an odd expression.
Yang Ruxin raised an eyebrow slightly, judging by Gu Di’s expression, it shouldn’t be anything serious.
“Earlier, Xiaobai and Xiaohei went into Hengxin Pavilion…” Gu Di said, rubbing his nose.
Yang Ruxin’s eyes flickered: “How long have they been in there?”
