These words were completely beyond Old Man Xu's expectations.

He has been in business for decades and is a seasoned veteran. He knows best how to deal with people and how to watch dishes.

The little girl in front of me is only thirteen or fourteen years old, and she looks very childish. Even though she is well-dressed, she is probably not a child of a powerful family who sells "design drafts" by herself.

He has a serious face. As long as he puts his face on his face and says a few harsh words, the average child will feel frightened. No matter how stupid he is, there is no business that he cannot win.

I never thought that this kid could act and speak as well as him, an old man in the world.

Whose child is this?

He couldn't help but turn his head and looked at Xu Xilai carefully.

Mrs. Xie is a child protector. When she saw the old man staring at Xu Xi, she immediately stood up and protected Xu Xi behind her, blocking her tightly. She glared at Mr. Xu with an unkind expression: "What are you looking at? My girl.

, is it something you can see?”

She turned around and advised again: "Girl, don't talk to him, let's go." Anyway, I made a hundred taels of silver, which was pretty good.

Old man Xu came back to his senses and said with an embarrassed smile: "I misunderstood, I misunderstood. I saw that this girl was very good at handling, so I wanted to know which family the child was from, and I didn't want to offend the girl. I am here to accompany the girl.

no."

After saying that, he stood up and bowed to Xu Xi.

From his glance just now, Xu Xi only saw curiosity and inquiry, and didn't feel any obscenity at all, so she didn't care.

She waved her hand: "No problem." Then she stood up and said, "Boss Xu has no intention of talking, so we'll take our leave."

"Hey, don't get me wrong, girl, I didn't say not to talk. If that's the case, then please invite the lady next door to come over and talk."

Old man Xu turned his head and nodded slightly to the waiter standing at the door. The waiter went next door.

Old man Xu sat down again, thinking about how to deal with it for a while.

Don't tell me, what he had in mind was exactly what Xu Xi had guessed.

Before coming, he originally planned to lower the price and get the first picture for forty, fifty taels of silver or lower, and then let Xu Xi take out the rest of the pictures. If the price was cheap, he would

He wanted to buy another one, and sent Xu Xi away on the pretext that he didn't like it, and then asked someone to draw it from his memory, and quickly asked the craftsmen to start making it to seize the opportunity.

Anyway, his bank is the largest in Beining County, and even if other companies buy Xu Xi's design, they can't compete with him. He has a backer, so he is not afraid of any trouble caused by this little girl.

As for the silver houses in the capital, the customer base is different anyway. Even if Xu Xi takes it and sells it to the most famous silver house in the capital, it will not hinder him. As long as one family makes jewelry and spreads it, other silver houses will rush to imitate it. Who can

What to do with him?

But the plan did not change quickly. Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked in, the clerk told him that a lady directly offered one hundred taels of silver to buy the girl's design draft. He knew that it was impossible to get the design draft at a low price.

In this case, don't blame him for being evil-minded and only paid a hundred taels of silver to buy one piece; for the rest, he couldn't even buy one after reading it. No one's money is blown by the strong wind, right?

Unexpectedly, this little girl is very clever. She would rather not do this business, but insist on asking the lady to come over and watch it together. Once outsiders are around, he will not be so easy to use tricks. After all, Yulong Pavilion needs credibility.

He also wants face.

Old Man Xu's eyes quickly turned as he thought about countermeasures.

After a while, the young man led a group of people in. The leader was the lady.

Old Man Xu is the boss. Even if the other party is a customer of the bank, as long as Shopkeeper Huang greets them attentively, he does not need to lower his status and grovel to others. So when the group of people came in, he sat still and just waited for Shopkeeper Huang to introduce him.

Just grab it and it's done.

But when he accidentally caught a glimpse of the material of the woman's dress, he felt a chill in his heart and couldn't help but stand up.

He has been in the banking industry for decades and has the most ruthless vision.

At first glance, the fabric on this woman's skirt looks similar to ordinary silk satin. In fact, it is woven from a very rare special silkworm cocoon. The color is natural and not acquired. Therefore, the silk satin will not fade after being washed for a long time, and it will not fade when pressed.

No wrinkles.

This kind of silk is not only rare and expensive, but it is not sold on the market. It is a tribute.

For this alone, the woman in front of her is no ordinary person. Even if she is not a member of the royal family, she is a relative of the emperor or has a close relationship with the royal family, and she must not be offended. Not to mention the step on her head and the use of

The piece of material and carving used to make the skirt are the finest mutton-fat jade pendants.

At this moment, Old Man Xu gave up the idea of ​​distorting the design.

If he plays tricks in front of such a person, he is afraid that he will not die quickly enough. If he offends her, if the other party does not take action, the master behind him will also take action to punish him.

Although Xu Xi does not have the professional and vicious gaze of Old Man Xu, she has a high IQ and emotional intelligence.

Looking at Old Man Xu's arrogant attitude, what else don't you understand?

However, even after she returned to the Hou Mansion, she never thought about dealing with powerful people, let alone trying to climb up to any powerful people.

She was impatient to go around in circles, and as soon as the group of people sat down, she started to talk about what had just happened, saying: "This lady is also interested in my design, so we might as well look at the rest of the drawings together. But we

You should be a villain first, then a gentleman. Before you look at the pictures, please sign a contract. You two promise that after looking at the pictures, if you don’t buy my designs, you will not make the jewelry styles I designed without permission. Once you find out, I will take them.

I took the contract and went to the government to file a complaint."

As she spoke, she took out a contract from another sleeve pocket, opened it, and placed it in front of the two of them.

Old Man Xu didn't dare to offend the woman, but he was not afraid of Xu Xi. Xu Xi's outfit might look good in the county, but in the capital city where there are many powerful people, it would not look good. The maid and mother-in-law behind her were wearing

It is even more difficult to get on the stage. A young lady from a wealthy family cannot show up to sell some designs. The three melons and two dates earned are not enough for others to buy a piece of jewelry.

He felt that his rudeness in blocking Xu Xi was a sign of goodwill towards this powerful woman.

He frowned and said displeasedly to Xu Xi: "Miss Zhao, is this unnecessary? I, Lao Xu, have been running a bank since my father's generation, and I have never heard of anyone having to sign a contract just by looking at the design drawings. What if?

The girl insists on doing this, so we’d better not look at this picture.”

As he spoke, he smiled and nodded towards the woman.
