21. Purchase

Xu Yiliang listened quietly, he was also satisfied with Steward Zhao, after all, Shunzi and Xu Lan were still young, and there was an old man here, and he was also a little more settled. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but the house is really tight at home, there is a single room in the front yard, but it is not suitable for the daughter to live with her.

Xu Yiliang mentioned whether he wanted to rent or buy another house.

Wang talked about her idea, if she rented or bought another house, it would be better to sell this place and buy a new big one. She still has some silver in her hand, and it will be enough to buy a three-entry mansion. Although the business in the store is not improving much, there is still a fixed entry in the Tsinghua Temple, and it is easy to settle if there are people in the future.

Xu Yiliang fell silent when he heard this.

Wang said that if we don't find it first, if Steward Zhao and his wife are willing to come over after the New Year, and find a suitable place, we will buy it, if they are not willing to come, or we can't find a suitable house, then we will rent it first.

When Xu Yiliang heard this, he also nodded, saying that he would let Shunzi go out to have a look in the past two days.

The two of them talked about some things to prepare for the New Year, which places to go to, and what gifts to prepare. Xu Yiliang let the Wang family decide everything. Now it is not more than when I was still living in Xu's Mansion, but it is easy to deal with, but this warmth and coldness made the two sigh again, Xu Yiliang said that the Wang family suffered, and he would not act like before in the future.

When the Wang family heard this, they thought that the wealth of the family was gone, and this day was bitter. I thought of what the monk said, the wealth of the family is scattered, and the blessing comes from disaster. What the monk said was really true, and I regretted that I didn't ask the monk's name at that time, and I don't know if there is still a chance to see it.

The two whispered for a long time before Xu Yiliang came to the study.

I saw that Brother Xuan and Xu Lan were both reading. When they heard him coming, they all stood up and saluted.

Xu Yiliang said to Xu Lan: "In the past two days, I want to let Shunzi go outside to find a house, what is going on in the store in the past two days?" ”

Xu Lan said that there was nothing to do, and asked what house she was looking for?

Xu Yiliang said: "Let's see if there is a bigger house, this study is also a little small, and in the future, we will add people to the house, let's see if there is a suitable one." You come to the store tomorrow and let Junko go home, and say I have something to explain to him. ”

When Xu Lan heard this, she thought that it might be Steward Zhao and his wife, who were expected to come over. After reading the book for a while, he quit Xu Yiliang and went back to sleep in Xu Tang's room.

On the second day, Xu Lan left Wang and Xu Yiliang after breakfast and went to the store, Xu Lan called Shunzi when she arrived at the store and said that Xu Yiliang was looking for him and asked him to go home first.

Steward Zhao also went out to do errands because the Wang family asked him to do some things under the New Year's Festival.

It was almost noon, and the carpenter brought the cabinet and bamboo frame. Xu Lan tidied up the cabinet and put the handkerchief, purse, and silk flowers into the grooved cabinet. Xu Lan made a discharge from light to dark according to the color. I felt that it was a little empty, so I put some of the goods in stock up again, and put it full.

Sister Chen made lunch and waited for Steward Zhao to come back and have lunch together. Steward Zhao had to go out to run errands in the afternoon, so Xu Lan, Steward Zhao, and Sister Chen rearranged the position of the cabinet.

The rest of the things were slowly sorted out by Xu Lan and Sister Chen.

The grooved cabinet was placed in a conspicuous position at the door, the colors were dazzling and colorful, and several women were attracted to come over and pick in front of the cabinet, and by the way, they went to the cabinet to pick some other things, Sister Chen greeted them warmly, because the shop had not been tidied up, so the woman picked a little and bought a box of rouge and two handkerchiefs. Sister Chen happily whispered in Xu Lan's ear: "Son, your method really works, there are so many guests here to pick and choose!" After saying that, he happily went out to entertain other guests.

Of course, some people were picky and looked at it, and in the end they didn't buy anything.

Xu Lan continued to tidy up the bamboo shelves there, because there was another one more shelf, but it seemed empty. I thought I should buy more kinds of local goods. Xu Lan hung up the inventory first, and only stopped when it was full.

Today's day's traffic is significantly higher than usual, and by the evening the turnover has doubled compared to yesterday!

At dinner, Steward Zhao said that this furnishing suddenly looked eye-catching in this slippery shop, and there were many colors of things and things, and they were placed directly at the door, and many people had to look at it twice when they passed by. Sister Chen said again that today's turnover is twice as much as usual! Everyone was very happy, and Xu Lan said that there were a few types of goods, and more goods should be purchased. Steward Zhao said that he would go with Xu Lan tomorrow to have a look and replenish some goods, and the things that his wife explained were not at the same time.

The next day, Xu Lan put on the dark green new jacket made for her by Wang early in the morning, and put on a piece of ground forging of the same color on her waist, which looked like a full little Zhengtai, and after eating longevity noodles, she followed Zhao Steward to the largest market in Huaiyang County. Xu Lan had also been with Steward Zhao before, but basically she followed Steward Zhao to see more and talk less.

Steward Zhao and Xu Lan first went to a few familiar shops and merchants, replenished some rouge gouache, and added some good-colored goods. I went to a few more stores and made up some fast-moving yarns, silk flowers and other goods. Putting the goods on the car, Xu Lan saw some gadgets placed on the side of the road, so she walked around one by one. Do the winds and handkerchiefs are the most, only to see a family of handkerchiefs are quite fine, white thin cotton handkerchiefs, next to embroidered with a few bushes of dark green bamboo imprinted into the eye, the fabric is not expensive, the embroidered bamboo is lifelike, the bamboo leaves seem to swing with the wind. This embroiderer is more than the embroiderer in the embroidery room. Xu Lan looked at a few more, and the fabrics were also very ordinary, with men's bamboo leaves, green pines, Wenchang Tower, etc. There are more patterns in women's places, plum blossoms, peonies, orchids, etc. The embroidered things are ordinary, but the designs are all ingenious.

Xu Lan looked at it and asked, "How many are there?" A young woman who had already pulled her head said a little nervously: "Ten pieces of paper." Xu Lan looked at her, she must have just come out to set up a stall. Xu Lan asked again, "How many handkerchiefs do you have here now?" The young woman replied, somewhat reservedly and flatteringly, "Thirty-six in all, fifteen for men and twenty-one for women." ”

"If I had them all, would it be cheaper?"

"This... This.. The young woman seemed distressed and did not know what to say.

"Look, if I buy them all, you won't have to waste time sitting here anymore, and even if you sit here, you won't necessarily be able to sell them all, don't you?" Xu Lan continued.

When the young woman heard this, she seemed to have made up her mind, and asked, "How much do you have?" ”

Xu Lan said: "Qiwen one, although your embroidery is good, but the fabric is a little worse." "Xu Lan went to a familiar shop here, and the same material only costs five words, but this embroidery is not as good as here.

Xu Lan thought about it again and said: "If you are willing, you can deliver it to our store in the future, but I hope that this material can be improved, so that your handkerchief can be sold at a good price, the material is good, the mind is ingenious, and the embroidery is good, and the price is naturally different." Such a handkerchief may be higher than your two handkerchiefs. ”

When the young woman heard this, she was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Really? It's just that I have to go back and discuss it, because I didn't embroider it myself. We can make dozens of handkerchiefs every month, and we can also make them, but we didn't take them out today. ”

Xu Lan paused and said: "In this way, you go back and pick out a few samples of the fabric, and you don't need to provide a lot of quantity every month, as long as you are fine, you can take the samples to my store to see them, and we will set the price." ”

The young woman nodded in agreement.

Xu Lan asked her where she lived, and how many embroidery girls did she have?

The young woman hesitated for a moment before saying that there were only two of them on the west side of the city.

Xu Lan said: "I am the steward of Xu Ji Liangpin, on Tianbi Street, when the time comes, things come out and are sent to the shop, I am basically there every day, if not, hand it over to the clerk first, and then come over at a time." If you have free space today, I can take you to see the way first. ”

When the young woman heard this, she immediately excused herself, saying that she would go again when she had time.

Xu Lan thought that she was a woman, so she had to be cautious and didn't care.

So he asked her that these handkerchiefs can be sold for seven cents today?

The young woman was busy packing her and said she was sold.

Xu Lan talked to Steward Zhao for a while, took the money, paid for it, took the goods and continued to walk down.

The young woman looked at his back and said, "Are all the children so powerful now?" It doesn't matter, anyway, I paid the money, and quickly went back and told the young lady. After saying that, he happily took the basket and left.
