Chapter 408 Creating Demand
The Jin soldiers have been driven away, and the Gu family's army is about to return. The Song family has also recently welcomed a big happy event, that is, Zhou Ning has given birth to a little girl. Song Chunsheng now has both a son and a daughter, and he smiles so hard every day that his face is about to break.
Song Dazhuang was in a good mood when he heard about the great victory at Quemeng Mountain. His superiors immediately agreed to hold a buffet for three days and three nights when Song Chunlin and his men returned.
When Song Qinshi realized her husband was boasting, she rolled her eyes and said, "Just let him do it. I'll see how he prepares this buffet. Anyway, I won't help. Let him hire someone to prepare it."
Chen Yuer smiled and said, "Sister-in-law just feels sorry for big brother and doesn't want him to work hard. Just hire someone. We can afford it. Besides, we are too old to work hard. It's not bad to be lazy and enjoy a good life."
Song Qin also sighed: "That's true. We are all grandmothers now, and it's time to take a break. After all, the young people will hold up the sky if it falls."
"That's the right way to think. We should let go when it's time to let go. I think Ning'er is smart and he's the boss at home and outside. Sister-in-law shouldn't do everything herself. When Ning'er recovers this time, let him take care of the household. You just need to help him take care of the children and provide him with support."
Unlike the Song family's ease and joy, everything was normal in the Marquis' Mansion, because Gu Fengyun had not been home for three days in a row, and he ate and slept in the palace every day. Actually, the peace talks between the two countries had nothing to do with the Ministry of Justice, but because it was Gu Fengyue who led the Gu family army to the war, Gu Fengyun stood here on behalf of the Gu family army.
The peace talks have been almost settled. What they need to discuss now is the border trading market, the size of the trading market, the opening hours, and the security issues during the opening period. These are just the basics. What is more important is the price of goods and the amount of exchange. These small things are the easiest to argue about.
Look, Gu Fengyun felt a little annoyed when he heard that these people had not been able to reach an agreement on the price for five days. Gu Fengyue's army would be back in a few days, and he didn't know whether these people could finish their argument before Gu Fengyue came back.
There was noise and noise all day long today. In the afternoon, Gu Fengyun was a little shaky, and the emperor was so scared that he quickly approved leave for him, almost forgetting that this man was almost dying of illness.
After seeing Gu Fengyun off, the emperor touched his little heart. Fortunately, his heart was still there and did not jump out of fright.
Gu Fengyun returned to the mansion like a wandering soul. Su Fuqing came up to him holding the child. She was about to ask him a few questions, but Gu Fengyun waved his hands weakly, fell asleep without even taking a bath, and almost scared Su Fuqing, so she quickly asked the mansion doctor to come.
The doctor took Gu Fengyun's pulse and finally said helplessly that Gu Fengyun was just tired and there was nothing wrong with his body.
After hearing the doctor's words, Su Fuqing's face turned darker.
The next day, Gu Fengyun woke up refreshed. Su Fuqing had already prepared hot water for bathing. After washing up, Gu Fengyun returned to his normal state as a marquis.
While helping Gu Fengyun get dressed, Su Fuqing finally seized the opportunity and quickly asked her husband when this matter would be over.
"You've been arguing for so many days, why haven't you come to an agreement on the price yet? There are only a few things on the grassland, what can we gain from them?"
Gu Fengyun: "I don't want anything from them, so I don't want to be a sucker. Besides, we Dajing people are not used to drinking milk. Only you cake makers use it. Naturally, they don't want to use it if the quantity is small."
Su Fuqing paused, as if thinking of something: "You said, only those of us who make cakes and pastries use milk?"
"Yes, look around the capital, is there anyone who likes to drink milk?"
Su Fuqing retorted: "Why do you like milk tea so much?"
Gu Fengyun: "...hiss, my husband is right, this milk tea is really delicious, I will buy a cup occasionally to satisfy my craving."
"Chunlin is right. There will be a market only when there is demand for something."
Gu Fengyun's face was full of questions: "What do you two sisters-in-law usually study? Why can't I understand what you are saying?"
"You don't need to understand. Wait, if there is no demand, we can create it."
There were more question marks on Gu Fengyun's face. Was his husband speaking human language?
After finishing breakfast, Su Fuqing went out and did not come back until dark in the evening. Gu Fengyun finally got a day off, but her husband did not come back that day. Who could she complain to?
For several days in a row, Su Fuqing, like Gu Fengyun, went out early and came back late. It was not until two days before Gu Fengyue's army returned to the capital that he finally had some free time.
