Chapter 029: Buy, Buy, Buy
Although she left the capital, Ye Shuyao, who had left the back house, was more interested in dressing up, and after breakfast, she took Zhimo, Zhiyan and Banxia out together. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The markets on the outskirts of Beijing are naturally not as prosperous as those in the city, but there are many things and things, and they have a unique charm. A few people walked into a ready-to-wear store, although there were no famous products such as Yunjin and soft smoke in the store, but the materials used in the clothes were also extremely exquisite.
With Yang Qingru's attitude towards Ye Shuyao, it is already generous not to deduct her share, so Shu Jiao has not seen much of the expensive clothes, and what she sees in front of her is enough to dazzle her.
Too complicated and dazzling clothes are not suitable for summer wear, the floating brocade in the flow of the sun, it is almost to stab Shu Yao's eyes, even if Banxia stares at it with stars, Ye Shuyao also firmly stands that he will never buy it, it is very expensive at first glance.
Excluding those dazzling clothes, Shu Yao still took a fancy to a lot of clothes, she picked out a dark flower filament pleated satin skirt for herself, and bought a splendid double butterfly flower shirt with reference to Banxia's opinion, and the finished clothes were more or less ill-fitting, and she had to go back and change them before she could wear them.
Although Banxia was very cheerful on paper, Ye Shuyao was honest when she really wanted to buy cloth for her to cut clothes. "Miss, I'm not good at my craft, I've ruined these good satins, but you can buy them back and let Shisu do it, her needlework is good!"
Shiso's needlework Shu Yao also has some impressions, but she rarely does it. "Shisu is busy enough, I see that you are relatively idle, just let you practice your hands. β
Banxia had a bitter face, completely losing the demeanor when she went out, "Miss, aren't you embarrassed for me?"
Seeing that Shu Yao intended to buy cloth, but he didn't have any ideas, Zhiyan stepped forward and suggested: "Miss's skin is delicate, and close-fitting clothes are not suitable for patterned materials, this plain brocade is good, and the breathability is good." β
Ye Shuyao was a little surprised, this Zhiyan's behavior was not like a refugee who was forced to sell herself, but she didn't say it explicitly, and after adopting Zhiyan's opinion, she looked at other types.
In the end, Shu Yao still bought a lot of cloth, and Banxia was so anxious that she wanted to stop her from paying.
"Don't worry, I don't have any spare money for you to practice, this Su Jin will go back and let Zi Su make clothes for me, Su Soft Satin, you big girls will share a point, and the plain silk will be given to the little girls." It's getting cooler, so it's time for you to get some clothes. β
Hearing Shu Jiao say this, Banxia was relieved. However, she bought too many things, and a few maids couldn't take them, so she simply left the address and asked the shopkeeper to send the things to the village.
Walking out of the ready-to-wear store, Ye Shuyao's interest in shopping had just risen, and when he saw that there was a jewelry store next door, a new round of sweeping began.
Although Shu Yao doesn't like to have too many decorations in her hair, the dazzling jewelry is in front of her, she really can't control her hands, even if she doesn't wear it when she buys it, it's pleasing to the eye!
It's just that this ancient merchant is too sincere, and the lightest jewelry is also silver-plated and gold-plated, and the workmanship of those copper-plated silver-plated defective products is too poor.
In order to reduce the burden on himself, the hairpins picked by Shu Yao were all gold-plated, and Zhiyan on the side looked at the shopkeeper's disdainful eyes and wanted to stop Shu Yao, but he still held back. They know that the young lady is lazy, but in the eyes of outsiders, she is a swollen face and a fat person.
And at this moment, Ye Shuyao didn't pay attention to the shopkeeper who looked down on people with dog eyes, she took a fancy to a dragonfly hairpin with gold inlaid jewelry, the style was playful and lively, and it was very suitable for Banxia. casually inserted it into Banxia's bun.
The shopkeeper on the side was anxious, "This hairpin is pure gold!"
Ye Shuyao glanced at him and felt inexplicable. "I know, don't you sell it?"
The shopkeeper's tone is still not good, and the young lady is willing to use the gold-plated one, how can she buy a pure gold hairpin for the maid?" "This hairpin is a new product of our store, fifty taels, no bargaining!"
The monthly example of Banxia is two taels of silver, and this hairpin is her monthly money for two years, and she hurriedly said that she didn't want it.
Ye Shuyao is now wealthy, and this hairpin is especially suitable for Banxia, so he bought the hairpin with a wave of his hand.
The shopkeeper didn't react for a while, he hadn't looked away for so many years, and he took the silver ticket handed over by Shu Yao and read it several times, for fear that it was fake.
Shu Yao also saw the meaning of the shopkeeper, and only paid the silver for the hairpin in Banxia, and didn't want the things he had chosen before, so he turned around and entered the jewelry store opposite. Leaving the shopkeeper alone in the store regretted it.
The jewelry style of this store is obviously different, the decoration does not use jewelry but crystal, and the design is also graceful and ladylike. Although Shu Yao is not very ladylike, she has to admit that she seems to belong to this style now.
So she not only bought a lot of them herself, but also helped Shiso choose a pair of amethyst hibiscus earrings.
In addition to clothes and jewelry, the group also bought a lot of utensils and food, and even made an appointment with a carpenter to order furniture. Its scale has exceeded the movement of moving into Zhiqiu Courtyard at the beginning, maybe Shu Yao has a hunch that she will live here for a long time.
In less than half a day's effort, Ye Shuyao spent more than 3,000 taels of silver, not including the outstanding balance payment. Sure enough, shopping is a good way to relieve stress, and the depression that has been suppressed in Yefu for several months is swept away, and now only the pressure of making money is left.
Shu Yao originally thought that the standard of living in ancient times was not high, but now it is really naΓ―ve to think about it, no matter when and where she is, the consumption of luxury goods is amazingly high, and all the things she buys for the maids add up, which is not as good as a pair of earrings of Zisu.
After spending money happily, Ye Shuyao began to prepare to make money. The Zhuangzi where she lives now is not far from the western suburbs, and it is much more convenient to contact the white shopkeeper to discuss things.
Today, Shu Yao is not simply buying things, but also inspecting the market. There are not many towns around this market, and most of the merchants are not able to establish themselves in the capital, so they set up shop here.
But the prosperous business district in Ye Shuyao's heart is by no means more than that, in her plan for Ye Qichen, the western suburbs should become not inferior to the existence of Jingcheng City. For the sake of security, the capital also restricts the entry of many foreign merchants, and in the western suburbs, these restrictions will definitely be relaxed, and the vitality of commerce will be stronger.
While the price of land has not yet risen, Ye Shuyao has already bought dozens of hectares of land, where she will build the first residential community of this era.
Although there was a lot of prejudice against commerce in ancient times, and the status of merchants was extremely low, the corresponding commercial tax rate was not high, and one-tenth of the profit was taken. Compared to the consumption tax of more than 40% in the modern entertainment industry, this is simply negligible.
And Shu Yao's identity is not a businessman, as an official girl, these movements are just a small fight in the girl's house in the eyes of outsiders, and with the name of Ye Qichen, a series of procedures have been handled extremely smoothly.
