Chapter 047: Business Partners
The people in the fishing village regard fishing as a livelihood for generations, and few of them run out and change careers like Wangcai. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It's not that the village didn't see that the eyes of the scholars were hot, and sent their male baby to the school in the town, hoping that he would study hard and have a great future in the future. It's just that you can't be a slaughterer for officials, and you can be exempt from taxes if you have a fame, right?
The boys are used to being wild on the beach, and it is more uncomfortable to lock them up in the school for a day than to be beaten with a stick. There are those who skipped school in the last half day, and there are those who gritted their teeth and lasted for ten days and a half months, but they couldn't bear it, so they asked their families to drop out of school.
Occasionally, there are one or two reading materials, only pen, ink, paper, inkstone and books are too expensive, plus the bundle, the money spent in the school last month is enough for the family to eat food for half a year. Without waiting for the doll to get tired of reading, the family first felt sorry for the silver, knew a few words, and could count the numbers, so they quickly quit school. Otherwise, if you read it for ten or eight years, you will have to make your family poor.
There are a few literate people in the village, but none of them can use paper and pen, because there is really little time to write on weekdays. When the government came to collect taxes, it only asked the few prestigious people selected from the village to draw and stamp their handprints.
When Mulan was fished out, she brought a bag of valuable items with her, and only Da Chun's family knew about it. Xiu Gu is afraid that others, especially Xinghua, will know that the reason for hiding this matter is that others don't know that she is from a "rich family".
She never mentioned that she was literate, and she took out a thick stack of paper like this, drawing and writing on it, which gave people an extraordinary feeling at first. What's more, the patterns she drew were delicate and fresh, which really shocked the moon.
Mulan is not a rash person, but from the first time she saw the knot, she regarded the moon as a confidant. not only showed her the pattern unreservedly, but even told her that the shopkeeper Han wanted to do business with himself.
"And such a good thing?" the moon was surprised at first, and then admired, "You are really capable, not to mention that you are going to the market to sell things by yourself, and even the shopkeeper of the big shop is looking for you to do business." ”
Mulan took her hand, "Then do you want to do it with me?"
"Me?!" the moon's eyes lit up, and she quickly waved her hand again, "If you can't do it, you can't do it, I can only tie knots, I can't do it." ”
I don't want any good things to be delivered to the door, this is also a girl with solid eyes.
Mulan made her laugh, "If you don't know how to tie the knot, I won't look for you." ”
He pulled her to sit down on the kang and said to her, "...... I still have a lot of ideas that I don't have to draw on paper, and if I can learn your knots, I can do a lot more.
I thought about it carefully, this knot is not something that can be learned in a moment and a half, and it is not as fine as you can learn it in a hurry. Shopkeeper Han is still waiting for my reply, and I don't have so much work to waste, so I might as well let you do it with me.
If Shopkeeper Han can match what we do, remove the capital, and make a net profit, we will open four or six, you four and I six, you should have no opinion, right?"
This is the business that Mulan brought in, and she is the one who will run errands in the town in the future, not to mention that it is reasonable to get more than 20%, that is, to get 30% and 50% more. The moon naturally has no opinion, but is a little worried, "What if it doesn't match?"
"If I don't like it, I'll sell it directly on the market, I've already sold it before, and I'm not afraid that I won't be able to sell it. If we can sell it for money, we are still four or six points. Mulan already had a plan in her heart, and after telling her in one go, she patted her on the arm, "What, do you want to do it?"
"Dry. The moon nodded without hesitation.
She tied a knot before, and she also gave it to the merchants who walked the streets and alleys, changed her hair to wear, and spared a few pieces of candy to eat, but she never thought of using it to make money. I didn't think that Mulan would kidnap her by force, and actually gave her a big bargain.
I was happy for a while, but I couldn't believe it for a while, "There are so many girls in the village who can tie knots, why did you just find me?" I haven't even spoken to you before, and my nose is not your nose and eyes are not eyes at the beach......
"We didn't have a relationship before, but from now on, won't we have it?" Mulan looked at her with a smile, "Don't worry, since I have found you, I will not look for anyone else."
If you're afraid that I'll trick you, I can write you a deed, and let's find someone who can read and write, and draw a handprint together. In the future, whether you regret it or I regret it, the deed is the evidence, and if you take it to the government, the official will also take care of it. ”
"No, no, no. The moon hurriedly waved her hand, "I can't trust you, I just ...... It's ......"
"The good thing came too suddenly, and I didn't feel steady?" Mulan finished speaking for her.
"Yes, that's it, like a dream." ”
Mulan laughed and twisted her red face, "It's not a dream, you're down-to-earth." If this business can be done for a long time, you will not have a problem saving money for the dowry on your own. ”
"Really?" the moon blurted out a question, and then her face turned red, and she rarely twisted it, "What kind of dowry is not a dowry?" I'm not greedy, and I'll be content with a few pocket money. ”
Mulan joked with her for a few words, and then said with a straight look: "I don't want to make a noise about this matter for the time being, you don't have to tell anyone else, just the two of us know." ”
"Well, I know, I won't tell anyone. "The moon came down in one bite.
After the two discussed, Mulan couldn't wait to study it with her, "Can you tie this knot bigger, and leave a bead in the middle, or a shell or something?"
"Yes, it's just a bit of trouble. ”
"Can this one be tied into a double knot or a triple knot, stacked one by one like this?"
"It's not difficult, I've beaten it. ”
"Like this, many of them are joined together to form a ring, or a particular suit?"
"I should be able to, I'll try. ”
……
The two of them hid in the house and pondered for a long time, and then figured out many patterns. Mulan divided some colored thread beads from the moon and told her to do a few exercises first. made an appointment to see her again tomorrow, and sent her out.
Seeing that the two of them were mysterious, Xiu Gu couldn't hold back her curiosity, and took advantage of the meal to inquire with Mulan, "What are you and the moon muttering about?"
"I want to learn how to make shoes from her and ask her to teach me. Mulan lied without changing her face, glanced at her, and added, "You can't always ask Aunt Wangcai to make shoes to wear, can you?"
Xiu Gu's smile froze, and her expression was a little sneering, "I've always wanted to do it for you, but I'm busy all day and night, and I don't have time, so I asked her to take the ......lead."
Mulan smiled, didn't answer, chewed and ate slowly, and then asked Da Chun to inquire, "Uncle Da Chun, is there a carpenter in the village who does a good job?"
