Chapter 158: Shopping

Yueyao waited for the things to arrive, and let the drizzle start grinding and concocting.

Bai Yi said tactfully: "Girl, you are only ten years old now, and it is the time when the color is good, so you don't need to apply your face." "Even if you don't do this, Yueyao's face is ruddy. Well, it's a little darker in the sun.

Yue Yao smiled lightly: "I have a sense of proportion." ”

After getting along for more than a month, Bai Yi knew that Yueyao was the kind of person who would not make people change their minds easily if he made up his mind, and he didn't persuade him at the moment.

Yueyao prepared it, not for herself, but for Hao's mother. Hao's mother is forty and six this year, but Hao's mother may have experienced more things, so she looks older than people of the same age. It is precisely because of this that Yueyao wants Hao's mother to try, and if it works, it proves the practicality of this recipe.

According to Hao's mother's original intention, she would definitely not choose to use this. Where would a half-buried person do this? It's just that this was ordered by Yueyao, and she used it as a task.

Bai Yi smiled and said, "Girl, I thought you used it yourself!" ”

Yue Yao shook her head and said, "As you said, I am the best age now, even if I don't use these, I am still young and beautiful." Now the black dots can come back white as long as they don't bask in the sun. "She basks in the sun like this, and it's only a little darker, and not turning into black charcoal is enough to prove her good skin.

Bai Yi burst out laughing, the ten-year-old girl said that she was young and beautiful, how could she sound so weird!

Yueyao wanted to take the shop out, so naturally she had to talk to the general and the shopkeeper, and then took stock of the shop. Yueyao originally wanted people to go, she didn't want to come forward herself. She doesn't care about how much the goods are counted.

Zhuang Ruolan denied Yueyao's idea, and said: "That's thousands of taels of silver, where can you be so casual." "The loss of thousands of taels of silver is small, and the most important thing is that this reputation is not good to hear. It is money like dung that is good to celebrities, but it is the most despised for those of them who are in charge. I don't have money, I can't even buy a needle and thread. I can't eat until I eat, and it's.

Yueyao was taught by Zhuang Ruolan and agreed to go by herself. After thinking about it, he said to Zhuang Ruolan that the two shopkeepers handed over the profits last year: "Cousin-in-law, I also saw that the difference in the profits they handed over was too big, so I didn't want to open it again." "If you want to recover the money of the two shopkeepers, you must rely on external forces.

Zhuang Ruolan snorted coldly: "Don't worry, they will all spit it out when the time comes." "These slaves are everywhere.

Yueyao took Bai Yi, Drizzle, and Hao's mother to East Street first. When she went out, Yueyao also asked Bai Yidao: "Won't it be inconvenient for you to go out with me?" ”

Bai Yi smiled dumbly and said, "There's nothing inconvenient. "She is not a Jiangnan thief wanted by the imperial court, and she will be arrested on the street.

Yueyao was worried that Bai Yi's identity was secret, and she was afraid that she would bring her trouble: "That's fine." ”

Caiyun was a little worried, and said to Zhuang Ruolan: "Young lady, wouldn't it be inappropriate to let my cousin go to the shop like this?" "Caiyi means that the eldest young master should accompany him. The girl went out alone, and she always felt that it was inappropriate.

Zhuang Ruolan shook her head: "You can't let Xianggong accompany you, and those who don't know think that we are plotting to seize Yueyao's property." This time, letting Yueyao go by herself is also to let her see a long time. Don't always indulge in calligraphy and painting, you have to let her know that calligraphy and painting can't be eaten. ”

Caiyun looked up at the begonia flowers hanging in the bedroom, and said with a smile: "Young lady, the skill of the cousin girl can be used as a meal." "Caiyun doesn't know how to paint, but he also knows that this painting is very good, and it will definitely sell for a lot of money.

Zhuang Ruolan looked at the begonia and said with a smile: "Yue Yaoqing is very tall, where would she be willing to exchange the painting for money." Alas, Yueyao is good at everything, but she doesn't like housework, and she doesn't care about money, you must know that nothing can be done without money in this world. I don't know if it's useful. Although Yueyao has always nested in Begonia Garden in the past two months and has not had much time to accompany her, Ruolan still likes Yueyao more and more, and she really plans for her.

Caiyun also discovered Yueyao's shortcoming.

If the two of them knew that Yue Yao planned to sell paintings to support themselves at the beginning, they don't know what they would think. After going through the hardships of that life, Yueyao naturally knew the importance of money. Of course, she also planned for the worst. If she had money, Yue Yao would never sell her paintings.

Ruolan felt that she should be glad for Yueyao that her aunt had set her a marriage, and she had set a good piano, and said at the moment: "Fortunately, Yueyao is the second son of the Shen family, and she is not the eldest daughter-in-law and does not need to be in charge of the middle feed, which is also a great luck in misfortune." "The parents of the Shen family will not be separated, and when the two elders of the Shen family pass away, it will be twenty or thirty years later, and when the children are all grown up, they can hand over the middle feed to their daughter-in-law.

Yueyao can't do it, Zhuang Ruolan thinks so far for her. Yueyao had never gone shopping in her previous life, and even the two stores were the first time in her life.

East Street is the most prosperous area in the capital, and there are no hawkers on the side of the road. There are all kinds of shops on both sides of the area, including rouge gouache shops, gold and silver jewelry shops, and shops specializing in Western goods. The shops were full of decent people dressed in satin costumes.

Yue Yao went directly to her shop.

The shopkeeper suddenly received news yesterday that the owner was not doing business and wanted to sell the shop, and the two shopkeepers felt that the five thunders had hit the top. At that time, he handed over the post to Lianfu, but was told that the third girl had gone to Mafu.

The shopkeeper knew that it was bad at the time, and he had already heard of the shrewdness of the young lady of Mafu, Zhuang. It's just that he has a fluke mentality, hoping that the people in Mafu will not interfere in this matter. But when he handed over the post to ask to see Yueyao, he knew that he was not so lucky, and the young lady of the Ma family didn't see her, but asked him to inform him to sort out the inventory in the shop, and didn't say anything else.

The shopkeeper didn't sleep all night, and when he woke up in the morning, there were more gray hairs. This will hear that Yue Yao is overjoyed, and hurriedly run over to see Yue Yao.

Yueyao listened to the shopkeeper say that she was reluctant to do the business of the store, and said that the business of the store made a lot of money. Yueyao sneered and said, "The shop makes a lot of money, but I'm afraid that if you continue to do it, I will have to give you silver every year in the future." ”

The shopkeeper was in his heart, he was glad that the girl was not familiar with general affairs, but now it seems that the girl is clear, so she doesn't want to do business anymore. The shopkeeper regrets it now, he knew that he wouldn't be greedy so much, as in previous years, so that he could also flow for a long time. The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Don't worry, girl, I will definitely take care of the shop with my heart." It will definitely make the shop more profitable, and there will be no more of last year's situation. Girl, this shop is doing really well, and in just a few months, it has made a lot of money. ”

Yue Yao didn't want to talk nonsense with him, and said directly: "Don't be unfaithful a hundred times at a time." You're really a fool, I'm just too lazy to care. Yueyao would never reveal that she had the idea of renting out the shop from the beginning, and she never thought of doing business on her own.

The shopkeeper's face turned pale.

Yue Yao has the identity deed of the shopkeeper in her hand, and she doesn't want to tear her face to make both parties ugly. Yueyao doesn't want to do things desperately, and she doesn't want to force people to die, Yueyao believes in being a person and doing things to leave a line.

Yue Yao said: "You should have made a lot of money over the years. The previous ones will not be pursued, as long as you hand over all the money you were greedy for ink last year and this year, I will return all the deeds of your family to you. Otherwise, don't think that because I'm an orphan, I can't do anything to you. "When the water is clear, there are no fish, and even if Yueyao doesn't check, they must have gained a lot of benefits. Now she hasn't done it all, and I'm sure they'll handle it honestly.

The shopkeeper knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, and it was useless to say more.

Yue Yao was also relieved when she saw the shopkeeper's interest: "Last year's income was determined according to the number of the previous year. The difference was made up. After a pause, he pointed to a young man in his twenties who came with him and said, "You take him with you to count the things in the store and make a book for me." ”

The shopkeeper naturally didn't dare to say anything more. The deed is in Yueyao's hands, and if the evidence is caught, even if they are killed and sold, no one will say anything. Now I only ask to make up the difference between last year and this year, which is already extraordinarily gracious. Moreover, after getting the deed, he is a good citizen, and he has saved a lot of money over the years, and he can live well without the mansion.

Yue Yao left after taking care of things.

Bai Yi saw that Yue Yao had dealt with this matter in just a few words, and he felt like he couldn't cry or laugh. said that she didn't understand the housekeeping and didn't care about money, and she also knew that she would get the money back from the shopkeeper. Say she understands, this time let her come to see the inventory in the shop, so as to prevent the shopkeeper from doing tricks, but she casually lost someone and became the owner of the hand.

Drizzle whispered: "Miss Bai Yi doesn't know, our girl is very good now." The girl didn't talk about silver before! Drizzle also explained when she saw Bai Yi's expression. But her explanation is not much better than not explaining.

Bai Yi chuckled and said, "Sure enough, he is a person who regards money as dung." "Many people advertise that they are not good at yellow and white things, but there are a few people who can really do it. Of course, those who can do it are real hermit masters.

Yueyao used the same technique when she went to another shop. The matter was solved in half an hour, not only with speed, but also with efficiency.

Yueyao looked at the lively street market, thinking that it would be difficult to come out, and since she came out, it was time to go shopping. By the way, buy some gifts for my uncle and cousin.

Yueyao took the group around the street for a while, and bought everything she liked when she saw it. What made Bai Yi feel strange was that Yue Yao didn't buy some gold, silver and jewelry like an ordinary girl, and didn't even go into the store.

Yue Yao spent a lot of thought on choosing gifts for Ma Chengteng and a few people. Gift-giving is not a trivial task, but you can't spend money and give something that people don't like. Fortunately, Yueyao understands the preferences of several people, and she has a rough idea of what gifts to choose.

Yueyao bought gifts from Ma Peng, Zhuang Ruolan and Ke Yue, but in the end, only Ma Chengteng's gifts were left.

Yueyao arrived at Sibao Zhai, and these Sibao Zhai mainly sold the four treasures of the study, so they were named Sibao Zhai. But in addition, it also sells calligraphy and paintings. The reputation of Duobao Zhai is resounding because of its quality and quantity. If there is a fake, the fake one pays ten.
