140 Buying things Spending money is happy
The capital is really different from a small county like Changhe County, not only the store opened much earlier, but more importantly, there are many shops of all kinds, and there are all kinds of shops. The pen "Fun" Pavilion can be said www.biquge.info only what you can't think of, and there is nothing that is not in the shop.
Even Mu Qianlan is also a little dazzled, although these shops are not as large as the supermarkets of later generations, but if they are turned down one by one, they are also very considerable, and they are much more refreshing than the supermarkets of later generations.
Why do you say?
Because these shops have entered, people are much more enthusiastic than those in the supermarket, and some shops will also put out refreshments to greet them, isn't this really a taste of a customer is God?
Mu Qianlan had already made a list of the things she wanted to buy today, and she kept them all in mind, she was looking for one shop after another at this time, and felt that she had to find something she liked, and she couldn't just pick up a bargain.
Anyway, she is not very short of money now, as long as she is eye-catching, she can probably afford it. When she came, she brought a lot of money, and since she arrived in the palace, the empress Xu felt that she was from the countryside and lacked silver, so she also rewarded her several times, mostly real money, which was really convenient for her.
Although she is not rich now, she is definitely not poor. There are a lot of gold and silver ingots in her space. Now you want to spend it, just take it out.
Her things have already been ordered, just waiting to find a suitable shop with good craftsmanship to order.
Mu Qianlan's plan this time is to make a very good set of furniture, if not the best, at least it can be regarded as a treasure. Then match several houses in the space, preferably complete with color and color, nothing is bad, go in, and just feel the same as everyone's beautiful boudoir.
She even thought that if there were any more adventures in the future, if they traveled to the afterlife, these things in the space would be heirloom antiques.
The hard work paid off, Mu Qianlan spent almost an hour, walked through seventeen or eighteen shops, and finally found a woodware shop that made her look the same. There is now a set of finished Huanghuali furniture in this shop. It's pretty much the same as what she asked for. It's a very complete set. What she likes the most is that the workmanship in this carpentry shop is very fine, and it can be seen that it took a lot of effort to make it, but it is not comparable to the furniture that came out of the cars in later generations.
After walking around the shop, she thought. That's what I want. She was about to speak. Then I heard a clear voice in my ears:
"The girl wants to make custom furniture? I don't know what you want? Do you want a single piece or do you plan to make a full set? ”
Mu Qianlan looked back. It turned out to be a person who looked like a little second in a green cloth, and Mu Qianlan guessed that this was the little second in this shop.
This person is the second child of this carpentry shop. He has been working in this shop for several years, and his vision is naturally good, looking at Mu Qianlan's dress, he also knows that she is definitely not an ordinary girl, and seeing that she looks carefully at the furniture in the shop, he immediately stepped forward to ask. This girl is a big customer at first glance, and if he can make a business, his life will be much better. At least you don't have to be reprimanded by the shopkeeper anymore.
Mu Qianlan was a little reluctant to look at the set of furniture in front of her, and she really felt that she couldn't take her eyes off, but since Xiao Er asked, she still said: "If such furniture is customized, how long will it take to make it?" ”
She has plans to go back to Changhe County earlier, if the time is too long, I am afraid that she will not have the time to wait, but Mu Qianlan also knows that making such furniture in Daqi is purely handmade, and the time required must not be short.
"Oh, girl, you really have a vision, this set of furniture has a total of twenty-eight pieces, it took our master and apprentices two years to complete, just to find these high-quality huanghuali wood It took more than half a year." With flattery, Xiao Er opened his mouth and explained with a smile.
When Mu Qianlan heard this, she was a little disappointed at the moment, but she should have guessed it a long time ago, such a good thing is naturally not easy to get, and she can't wait for two years in the capital for this set of furniture.
"That's a long time!" Mu Qianlan sighed lightly and said with infinite regret.
If the time is less, it is okay, even if it is half a year, Xu is still in the capital, but these two years are too long.
"Girl, it takes a lot of time for this good thing, and if you are in a hurry, the thing will be rough." Xiao Er was busy and said with a smile again.
Looking at the age of the girl in front of her, she probably wants to prepare a dowry, but isn't it usually the family that prepares the dowry? Why did this girl come by herself? Or is her family spoiling her too much, so let her choose? I don't know what kind of girl it is, it's really a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes.
"I really like this set of furniture, but I don't have to wait that long."
After Mu Qianlan said this, the result of Xiao Er's brain supplement was that this girl must have disliked the furniture prepared at home was not good, so she came out to find a good one, but the time to marry was almost up, and she couldn't wait for two years.
"Girl, if you really like this set of furniture, you might as well measure it and see if it is suitable for you to put it in your house. To tell you the truth, this set of furniture was originally prepared by Lord Wu's family for his little daughter, but before the furniture was finished, the Wu family broke down, and this set of furniture was left in our shop. Xiao Er's eyes rolled, and he simply opened his mouth to tell the truth.
Anyway, this set of furniture is also waiting to be sold, this girl looks like a rich person, and it is unknown if she can get this set of furniture. You know, this furniture is not placed here for a day or two, those who are really rich and noble dislike that this is the Wu family's bad things people custom-made, afraid of being contaminated with the Wu family's bad luck and refuse to ask, and ordinary people, and no one will be willing to marry their own girl such valuable furniture, speaking of which, this furniture has been in the shop for more than half a year.
The proprietor has long said that this furniture. I don't want to make much money, I can keep my capital, and I can make a little money. If you sell this thing for the New Year, it will be a good sign, and the owner will be happy, saying that you may not be happy to give yourself a red envelope or something.
Mu Qianlan was really happy when she heard this, isn't this sleepy and encountering a pillow? For the Wu family who made custom furniture or something, she didn't pay attention to it at all, and there were many bad things in the future. Many things are auctioned. I haven't seen anyone who dislikes bad luck, of course she doesn't mind.
At that moment, she smiled and asked, "If that's the case, this is my size, can you see if it fits." ”
As she spoke, she gave Xiao Er the size on the paper.
Xiao Er took it. I went to the counter again and took a piece of paper and looked at it. Just look at it the more. The deeper the smile on his face. By the time I've seen it all, my face is almost like a flower.
"Or if you are blessed, look at this size. Just like your custom-made, if you buy this set of furniture, it is the most suitable to put at home, and the small one feels that it is custom-made and there is no more suitable for this. ”
Xiao Er finished speaking, as if to prove that what he said was true, he handed over a piece of paper in his hand, along with Mu Qianlan's size, Mu Qianlan looked at it, isn't it, this is really like being customized for her, except for a few subtle things that are different from her own requirements, there is no difference.
However, this set of furniture is integrated into one, but it is better than what I came up with before. If there is no problem with the price, Mu Qianlan thinks that this is the case.
Now that it has been decided, Xiao Er went to find the shopkeeper to come out, and he is a little second around, he doesn't dare to call the shots for such a big deal, so it's better to ask the shopkeeper to come out. Anyway, as long as it is done, there will always be its own benefits.
Although Huanghuali is not as valuable as red sandalwood and golden silk nanmu in Daqi, it is definitely a low-priced road goods. The price of this set of huanghuali is 1,000 taels of silver.
Mu Qianlan knew very well in his heart that although the price of Daqi's huanghuali was not low, it was not very high, and although the silver of one thousand taels of this set of furniture was not outrageously high, it was still a little high.
She immediately began to exert the bargaining skills she had learned in later generations, and began to bargain back and forth. This shopkeeper has never seen a little girl so good at bargaining, but the price given by the little girl is about the same as the real price, and it has left him some room to make money, although it is a little less, but it is better than this furniture has been pressed in his hand. What's more, dealing with this set of bad things during the New Year doesn't mean that there will be good fortune in the year?
Since he thought so in his heart, the shopkeeper would not insist very much, and quickly negotiated the price. It was sold at a price of six hundred and forty taels.
Mu Qianlan weighed it, although she spent a lot of money, it was not enough to make her life unbearable, even if she bought some other things, it was enough.
At that moment, Mu Qianlan made a decision to order the goods. However, she also plans to order another set, which is in the laughing room, even if she can't find the same set as herself, she can't be too secondary, the craftsmanship of this house is good, but I don't know if there is a ready-made one in the shop. In addition, there are also those in the study, since I have seen a suitable one in this house, it is better to simply buy them here.
This shop is also a relatively large wood shop, since there is still a lot of inventory, soon, she has another set of furniture in the store, is 22 pieces of sour branch wood, although not as valuable as this set of huanghuali, but the workmanship is not ambiguous at all, it is also very good. The last is the study, the things in the study are much simpler, but the tables, chairs, benches and bookshelves and the like, as long as the wood is good and the workmanship is good, there is nothing to be picky.
The furniture of the three houses was complete, and it cost a total of 1,150 taels, Mu Qianlan paid the bill happily, and then arranged for the shopkeeper to send the furniture to a certain place.
This shop has made such a big business during the New Year, although because Mu Qianlan bargained so much, he didn't make a lot of money, but it was a lot, and at the moment, the shopkeeper was full of promises to deliver the goods. The shopkeeper finally gave Mu Qianlan a dressing box carved with camellia in mahogany, which was originally made of leftovers, and it was not worth much, so it was regarded as an addition to her.
Mu Qianlan never thought of using something like a dressing box, so when the shopkeeper sent her, she was still a little stunned, but then she also thought of it, isn't it, when this Daqi girl got married, she had a dressing box, but she had been in the afterlife for a long time, and she actually forgot about this.
This business can be regarded as a happy one, especially Mu Qianlan is even more happy.
Seeing that she had bought so many things, she felt that the turbidity that was heavy in her heart seemed to have dissipated as the silver was spent, and her heart was really much happier.
In the future and this life, she is not a rich person, and she doesn't know what it feels like to work hard like this, but this time she experienced the feeling of being rich.
You must know that this more than 1,000 taels of silver, in the future life, is almost equivalent to spending hundreds of thousands of dollars, how can it not make her feel dizzy?
Then, Mu Qianlan went to the fabric shop again. When you buy furniture, you naturally have to buy others, such as tents, sheets, bedding and the like. These things are naturally not lacking in the capital, and there are many very good ones, and Mu Qianlan quickly bought them according to the newly ordered furniture.
Although these things are not heavy, they can't stand Mu Qianlan buying more, if she is allowed to carry them herself, she really can't do it, and she can't throw them into the space in front of these people, and in the end, she can only let people send the things to the place agreed between her and the people in the carpentry shop.
This time the money spent was much less than the furniture, and it only cost a hundred or ten taels of silver to buy all the things, of course, although many of the things in it were good, they were not considered superb. Speaking of the best, the materials recently rewarded by the empress are really the best, but she is not very good at needlework herself, so she can only buy such finished products. Otherwise, all this money can be saved.
Mu Qianlan is also a person who can figure it out, didn't she come out today to spend money? The money was spent, and she wanted to change her mood, so she didn't feel sorry for the money, but continued to stroll leisurely.
There are still some bits and pieces, which are much easier than large ones, and when all the things are bought, Mu Qianlan saw that the time agreed with the two shops was about the same, and she went to the place where she designated to receive the goods while shopping.
Speaking of which, this place was also discovered by Mu Qianlan occasionally, and I don't know whose back door it is, there is a dead corner around it, and when I go around, others can't see it, but it is suitable for her to put things in the space unconsciously. (To be continued.) )
