Chapter Fifty: A Suggestion

  ♂?,,

  Ding Rou smiled and said: "There is something to discuss with Master Qian. High-quality updates"

  "Miss Ding, if you don't mind, I can call you Uncle from now on." Qian Zhen's eyes, which were good at reading people, saw the extraordinary qualities in Ding Rou. His daughter and Ding Rou got along well, and there would always be benefits to it. What Qian Zhen was afraid of was that as a member of the Ding family, she might look down on merchants, and scholars who held themselves high would sneer at businesspeople.

  Ding Rou stood up and bent her knees, saying: "Thank you, Uncle Qian, for your kindness."

  One sentence pulled Qin Chen and Tong Ren into a close relationship, partners in business, trust and respect are essential. Ding Ruo deeply understands this, and what sets her apart from the book-smart Miss Daguang is her respect for merchants. This respect isn't just lip service; Ding Ruo respects Qin Chen's business acumen itself, not because he has a sister who is the wife of Chu Ling Wangfu.

  Qian Zhen stroked his mustache and smiled: "Miss Ding, very good."

  "Uncle Qian, just call Dingerou. " Dingerou smiled softly and handed over the plan book, saying intimately like a niece: "Please, Uncle Qian, correct me."

  Qian Zhen took the plan book, flipped through it, and looked up at Ding Rou. He was even more shocked, Ding Rou was calm and quiet as if nothing was out of the ordinary. Qian Zhen underestimated him a lot, the Ding Rou who could write this, absolutely cannot be underestimated.

  The advantages of modern people are not just about being well-versed in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, nor are they just about having a broad vision. Ding Ruo thinks it's about accumulation, the continuous progress of civilization, and the constant accumulation of essence. For example, business plans were absolutely new things in the Great Qin Dynasty. Ding Ruo didn't feel like she was cheating the ancients, advantages should be brought out whenever there is an opportunity, if everything is just as ordinary as the ancients, Ding Ruo doesn't think she has lived a life in modern times.

  Qian Zhen looked at it for a long time and had a general impression. He raised his eyes and asked, "Is this written?"

  Ding Rou nodded and said: "What does Uncle Qian think?"

  Qian Zhen's expression turned slightly solemn after reading the entire document, "You left a trick up your sleeve, don't you trust me?" Qian Zhen stared straight at Ding Rou, who was taken aback. Indeed, he was an old fox in the business world, and his arrangements were so secretive that Ding Rou had seen through them. Ding Rou gained more confidence in their cooperation and also gained a deeper understanding of Qian Zhen. Facing the new plan, Qian Zhen pointed out the problems in such a short time without getting angry or annoyed, which meant he saw the business opportunities and there was an 80% chance they would cooperate.

  "Don't be offended, I was using a small-minded person's perspective to measure a gentleman's heart." Ting Ruo frankly admitted that she had left a trick up her sleeve. "First time visiting, didn't quite understand Uncle Qian, it was my fault for being rude."

  Qian Zhenyu raised his arm, "It's human nature, I don't blame you. Ding's daughter is a respectable person, and I admire her."

  "Dad, what are they saying?"

  Qian Qing was puzzled and curiously asked: "What is the paper in Father's hand? Ding sister, is it written?"

  Ding Rou smiled and explained: "I call it a plan book, every transaction must have a plan."

  "The plan is very fitting, concise and clear."

  Qian Zhen felt a different kind of feeling when looking at the plan book this time. The icons, numbers, and plans were all very well thought out, considering as many problems as possible, and even had a promotion plan at the end to encourage more people to buy it. From production to sales, everything was properly arranged. What Qian Zhen valued was not this unique plan book, but Ding Rou who made the plan book.

  "Let me take a look." Qian Qingyi, who had always been spoiled, took the plan book from Qian Zhen's hand and glanced at it for two seconds, not showing much interest. "Ding Mei's handwriting with a brush is very neat."

  Qian Zhen shook his head. His daughter only saw the words, but didn't see the essence. How could Qian Zhen be at ease? "I don't understand, take it back and give it to me."

  "Oh." Qian Qing returned the plan book to Qian Zhen, smiling and inviting: "Ding sister rarely comes once, after a while I'll accompany Ding sister to stroll in the back garden, in the Listening Rain Pavilion to appreciate the flowers has a unique charm, even Aunt said it's beautiful, not inferior to Chu Ling Wang Fu."

  "Is that Aunt?" Qian Qing smiled sweetly, and Chu Ling Wang's wife, Qian Shi, nodded: "Brother spoiled her, even the rare Mandrake flower that only grows in Jiangnan was grown alive, and it's also the only one in the capital."

  Qian Qingjiao pouted: "Auntie."

  Qian Zhen's eyes were filled with tender love and affection for Qian Qing, while Ding Ruo's heart sank slightly with a hint of bitterness. In her past life, she had hated her father the most and never experienced his loving care. In this life, Ding Ruo was far away from the Ding family and never expected Ding Lao to be a kind father. While her difficult upbringing had made Ding Ruo independent and resilient, it also meant that she had never felt paternal love.

  Qian Zhao glanced at Ding Rou and saw that something was off, saying: "Ding sister don't mind, I've always been the most favored one, I'm even a bit jealous."

  Qian Zhao said that she was jealous, but Ding Rou saw that Qian Zhao had admiration and respect for Qian Qing, as well as sisterly affection, but no jealousy or comparison. Ding Rou liked Qian Zhao more, "I admire Elder Sister Qian."

  "Alright, we all laugh at me." Qian Qing's face turned red as she pinched her waist and said: "Ding sister already calls Father 'Uncle', call me Sister Qing, don't be calling me Big Miss or Little Miss anymore, it sounds so distant."

  Ding Rou followed softly and said with a bow: "Sister Qing."

  "That's right, Sister Ding, come with me to the backyard." Qian Qing pulled Ding Rou, but she shook her head and said: "Sister Qian, wait a moment, I have a few more words to say to Uncle Qian."

  Qian Qing let go of Ding Rou and complained: "What's there to say? Business matters are too complicated, Sister Ding. Father won't let us suffer losses."

  Qian Zhen-dao: "Not mentioning that Ding's niece helped Xiao Qing and Xiao Zhao, just looking at this plan, the business can be done. In two days, I will arrange everything properly, please ask Ding's niece to come over again for further discussion."

  Ding Rou smiled and nodded, seeing that Qian Ying didn't care about business. In her heart, she felt a pang of worry - Qian Ying had been protected too well; if Qian Zhengwan were to pass away, could she keep the large family business intact? Even if they brought in a husband, it was hard to predict people's hearts - who would guarantee that the man they brought in would treat Qian Ying with sincerity? There are good people in this world, but Ding Rou naturally thought of the worst-case scenario first. It wasn't that she was pessimistic; at least she had a plan in mind. She didn't fear ten thousand possibilities, only the one-in-ten-thousand chance - no one knew what would happen in the future.

  Ding Ruo's mind was racing, and it was clear that she wasn't suitable for discussing such deep matters on her first visit. Besides, Ding Ruo didn't have any intention of helping Money Old Master teach Money Qing either. After cooperating with him, Ding Ruo would take the silver and leave for Jiangnan, and whether they could meet again would be up to fate. However, when fabricating an identity, it was indeed convenient to use the Money family's name, and it would also make things easier in Jiangnan. The Money family probably wouldn't investigate whether there really was a relative or not, so even if the truth were to come out later, they shouldn't blame Ding Ruo too much, considering their current relationship. Ding Ruo would arrange everything properly and wouldn't let the Money family get into trouble because of her.

  Ding Rou smiled and said: "Sister Qing has been accompanying me, delaying your important matters with Uncle Qian, I feel uneasy about it."

  "What's going on? Do I and Father have any proper business?" Qian Qing was puzzled, Qian Zhen clenched the plan book tightly, as if he had gained some insight. Ding Rou smiled unchanged, "Sister Qing is too modest, but as the eldest daughter of Mr. Qian, she may be the one to inherit the family business, and should have a lot to discuss with Mr. Qian. It's me who has delayed things."
